I have received reply from Dy Chief Engg (B.P) City, Byculla, Bombay Municipal Corporation that,
The information which is seeked by me is in Question Answer Format and same does not fall under purview of RTI Act.
Always remember :
1] Begin your questions with the use of the following words--'WHO,WHAT,WHEN WHERE,HOW,WHAT IS THE REASON FOR THE DELAY-----
2] Be very specific & ask to the point questions.Don't ask vague questions.
3]You don't give information,you ask for the information.
4]Frame your questions in such a way that the officer does not get any chance to reject your application.
5]Ask as many short questions as you like ,but don't ask for volumnious information.
6]Make sure your questions are not rhetorical.Frame your questions carefully so that officer can not avoid giving answersor reject the application.
I fully agree that framing of questions is very very important.
Please apply your minds carefully while framing the questions or the application itself. This will not only prevent any future hardships but will also ensure that the concerned officer or department replies correctly.
I had a problem with a particular department in AP. On trying to submit a application to the PIO under the RTI Act, the PIO refused to accept cash as a application fee. I checked the departments website and it clearly stated that application fee can be paid in Cash, Bankers Cheque or Demand Draft.
So, for good measure, apart from the regular application I wanted to file for information, I filed another application as follows:
Dear Sir,
RE: Application for Information under the RTI Act of 2005
We would like to apply to yourselves for the following information under the RTI Act of 2005:
1.Whether the two attached pages of computer printouts are the print outs of information contained on your official website ...::: Welcome to Commercial Taxes Department :::...
2.Whether the said website of the department states that "a request for obtaining information under Sub-Sec (1) of Section 6 shall be accompanied by an application fee of Rs. 10/- by way of cash or by Demand Draft or by Bankers Cheque payable to the Accounts Officers or any other duly authorised officer of the Public Authority"
3.What steps has the Commercial Tax Department of Andhra Pradesh taken to ensure that the designated officer or PIO or Nodal Officer accepts the Application Fee in cash.
4.Have any instructions been given to the PIO or Designated Officer or the Nodal Officer to accept the Application Fee in the form of cash. If yes, the date of such instructions and a copy of the said circular may be kindly given to us.
5.If the above is correct, why is the PIO not accepting the application fee in way of cash under the RTI Act of 2005 when I met him in his office on 22nd March 2007.
Although the intention of the above application was solely to make the department accept cash and also realise that it should practice what is stated on the website, the questions have been framed in such a a manner so as to make it sound like a genuine RTI application.
can any body specify which are the cases where reply has to furnished within 48 hours. can anybody also state cic judgements related to this.
When ever the information sought for concerns the life or liberty of a person, the same shall be provided within forty-eight hours of the receipt of the request.
I would like to thank Shri Shailesh Gandhi as after reading his article on cPanel® I made my applications. I think this should help you better to understand.
1) There was an open manhole on the road and the municipal authority was not covering the same, I made an application to municipal asking for the name of the officer/staff that is responsible for the same. I stated that the information is require within 48 hours as it is concerned to life and liberty of a person, as pedestrian can fall into this manhole and can lost his life. I submitted the application and went to the office on coming back to home in evening I found the manhole was properly covered.
On getting the prompt response to my first application I was inspired to draft two more application.
2) There was a fabrication shop in our building which use to undertake the work of welding and metal cutting, the owner use do his work on an open a footpath near his shop. We made an application to municipal authority asking for the name of the officer/staff that is suppose to take action against such unauthorized work and has not done so far. We stated that the information is require within 48 hours as it is concerned to life and liberty of a person, as the welding spark can get into the eye of a passerby. Surprisingly within 2 days we found that the shop was closed.
3) There is shop who uses contaminated water for preparing food and does not maintains proper hygiene we made an application to municipal authority asking for the name of the officer/staff who is suppose to take action against such irregularities. We stated that the information is require within 48 hours as it is concerned to life and liberty of a person, as the person consuming such unhygienic food may fall sick or loose his life.
nile you are squeezing the juice out of RTI.
Good Work!!
thank you very much.
do u have copy of judgements of CIC stating which matters fall under 48 hrs category?
education matter can fall in this category or not?
can you help me drafting application in such a way so that i will get reply within 48 hrs.

Orange Punch readers know how we feel about most laws passed by politicians. They should be few and legitimate, but instead are too many and tools for rewarding friends and punishing enemies. In short, they should protect rights, not invent new ones.
Laws generally seek to take from someone something of value, often not merely cash, and bestow on someone else a benefit, oh say, like health care insurance.
We're pleased to see – but not surprised to see – that the majority of Americans believe there are too many unnecessary laws. At least according to a Rasmussen Reports Poll. It found 68 percent of American adults surveyed said there are too many laws in the U.S. How many think there aren't too many? 19 percent.
We're not sure how many of those folks are influenced by the monumental increase in laws imposed by Obamacare, a conglomeration of rules and regulations and mandates so voluminous its principle backers didn't know what was included when they voted on it.
Because laws by definition restrict behavior as well as impose costs, it is probably preferable to understand their full impact before adopting them. Here is a wonderful graphic that shows just a peek at just one of the countless new "laws" imposed by Obamacare. (click on it twice to get it full size, then you also can zoom for the details)

After I no longer went on family road trips with my parents, it became a rare occasion to visit my grandparents who lived hundreds of miles away from us. So one year, I decided to fly to visit them in the small town of Land O'Lakes, Wisconsin, for a long weekend. As we drove to the airport for my return flight, Grandma, who had never flown, began to express her fears to me: "That was such a small plane you flew on . . . . There's nothing really holding you up there, is there? . . . I would be so afraid to go up that high."
By the time I boarded the small aircraft, I was as fearful as the first time I had flown. What exactly is holding up this plane, anyway?
Irrational fears, or even legitimate ones, don't need to terrify us. David lived as a fugitive, afraid of King Saul who relentlessly pursued him because he was jealous of David's popularity with the people. David found true solace and comfort only in his relationship with God. In Psalm 34 he wrote: "I sought the Lord, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears" (v. 4).
Our Father in heaven is all-wise and all-loving. When fear starts to overwhelm us, we need to stop and remember that He is our God and He will always hold us up.
My fears sometimes overwhelm me, Father. Yet I know that You are here with me. May Your perfect love cast out my fear and still my troubled heart!
When we believe that God is good, we can learn to release our fears.
The superscription to Psalm 34 gives the occasion for David writing this song of deliverance. While a fugitive from the jealous King Saul, David foolishly took refuge in the Philistine territory of Gath (1 Sam. 21:10-15). This was a dangerous thing to do because Gath was the hometown of Goliath (17:23). When the Philistines realized that David was the Jew who had slain their champion Goliath, they captured him (21:11,13). Aware that his life was now in danger, David feigned insanity and the ploy succeeded for he was released and made his escape. In response to God's deliverance, David wrote, "I sought the

THE North-East faces the prospect of a "lost generation" unless the Chancellor focuses his efforts on youth unemployment in the next Budget, a leading business group warned last night.
Almost one in four of young people aged 16 to 24 in the regoin are out of work with a youth unemployment rate of 24.2 per cent – and the young generation is being squeezed by higher living costs.
The youth unemployment rate is the highest in the UK outside London, where it stood at 24.4 per cent in the last quarter of 2013. Yorkshire and the Humber is lower at 22.4 per cent.
Loading article content
Youngsters across the country are three times as likely to be out of work as the rest of the UK population.
The British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) last night suggested a set of proposals to help drive down youth unemployment across the UK, saying it was responding to employers' concerns about how work-ready young people were and a "deficient" education system.
It said growing jobs, improving skills and encouraging enterprise among young people was crucial to securing future growth.
Its call came as a youth campaign charity issued a report which showed that of those young people who were employed, the pay gap between the under 21s and over 50s had ballooned by 50 per cent in the last 15 years, while people in their 20s had seen rents rise by more than a third.
The Intergenerational Foundation, (IF) which last year said the North-East of England was the worst place in the UK to be young because of its high youth unemployment and low political engagement levels, said that the youngest workers were being hit hardest as the pay gap widens.
Liz Emerson, co-founder of IF, said: "Our research clearly demonstrates that the under-21s are being squeezed by falling wages and higher living costs compared to older colleagues.
"Urgent action is needed to ensure North-East young people in particular, are given greater support in the form of cheaper travel to work, better pay and lower housing and living costs."
She described the young as the "new poor" and said policy makers had to do more to protect them.
The BCC, in a submission to Chancellor George Osborne ahead of next month's Budget, proposed tax relief for those investing in companies run by young entrepreneurs who often struggle to obtain finance from other sources such as banks.
Proposals also include a £100m future workforce grant scheme to give 1,000 payments to firms hiring long-term unemployed people or a new apprentice, to create 100,000 new jobs this year.
The organisation is also calling for a two-year extension to a successful scheme giving apprenticeship grants to employers, to help create 80,000 additional apprenticeships.
BCC director general John Longworth aid: "Businesses across Britain tell me they want to hire young people. Yet many cannot afford to take the risk, especially at a time when other, more qualified applicants are coming forward for the job vacancies on offer.
"If the Chancellor wants to avoid a lost generation among today's 16-24 year-olds, he must use the spring Budget to help businesses take on and train up young people, whether they are going straight into jobs or into apprenticeships.
"Getting young people into employment is vital, pressing and easily affordable right now."
He said the BCC proposals would cost less than seven per cent of the Government's spending on overseas aid last year.
No-one from the North East Chamber of Commerce was available for comment yesterday, but chief executive James Ramsbotham said last year that it was "vital" that vocational pathways like apprenticeships were not overlooked.
The new Bishop of Durham, the Right Reverend Paul Butler, who was enthroned on Saturday in Durham Cathedral, said one of his priorities in his new role was to look at youth unemployment.

Ragnor: Even if you don't have XT with non stop text still active or whatever it was called you can still gets a $299 phone for around $89ish because of the Telecom TXT Anyone 2500 addon, which is currently doubled ("double joy") for December.
So 10000 txt's for an IDEOS
$5 for 2degrees SIM
+ $30 for Telecom SIM #1
+ $12 for TXT Anyone 2500 #1 (5000 txts due to "double joy" promo)
+ $30 for Telecom SIM #2
+ $12 for TXT Anyone 2500 #2 (5000 txts due to "double joy" promo)
Then automate sending the txt's via PC Suite software for your phone or an app with a huge text area that breaks down the txt into loads of xyz character sms messages.
Enjoy your $299 phone for $89
.. and then rinse and repeat
Anyway while this promo seems pretty low brow, it's probably a mistake to not take advantage of a mobile industry cat fight.
It's lower since the SIMs come preloaded with credit.
$20 credit (after registration) for the Telecom SIMs means that it's only $64.90 for an IDEOS (counting SIMs at $29.95 RRP)

"This is the story of the worst thing that can possibly happen to you. It would be too shattering to read were it not also the story of the best thing that could ever happen to anyone. OUT OF THE CANYON serves as evidence that life sometimes hides the most precious gift inside the very heart of darkness."
–Augusten Burroughs
"[An] intensely affecting first memoir….A powerful account of our ability to recover from emotional devastation and love again, this book will appeal to anyone who has experienced personal tragedy, those who can appreciate finding a life partner under unexpected circumstances, and those who don't mind a good cry."
–Library Journal
"OUT OF THE CANYON tells the Dailys' infinitely sad, improbably uplifting story. The book is one thing – a well-told account of a brave, unlikely recovery from the unthinkable. But stronger than words are the Dailys themselves; simply being in their presence — compassionate and humble — is like being surrounded by an enormous grace. It is the convincing exclamation point on their book."
–Aspen Times
"How can a book about unspeakable tragedy be uplifting and joyful? Allison and Art Daily's story manages to be that and more. It offers hope to all of us who grieve and stands as a tribute to the human spirit and the possibilities that exist even when we feel that there are none. Out of the Canyon shows us hope, inspiration, love, and yes, even joy."
–Ann Hood, author of Comfort
"Out of the Canyon is a riveting and powerful witness to the healing power of love and spirit over the worst, most unimaginable loss. It both shatters your heart and deeply heals it all at once. Reading it will be a profound gift to all who have ever lost a loved one, or may."
–Sonia Choquette, author of The Answer Is Simple and Trust Your Vibes

So the Grammys happened.
If you're a serious music fan—the kind who goes to shows all the time, reads blogs on the daily, acquires handfuls of new albums and MP3s per week—do you really care about the Grammy Awards™©®? I mean, sure, the show itself can sometimes offer a moment of spectacle or two (OMG, Lady Gaga wore a thing!), and every once in a while someone truly deserving or unexpected wins (congrats, Phoenix). But on the whole, it's always the same predictable big music-biz back-patting sesh, the best bits of which you can watch on the internet the next day, the results of which are more or less meaningless if what you're actually interested in is music as opposed to celebrity.
Anyzzzzz, in the interest of fixing the Grammys—not as in rigging them, which the academy can take care of itself (I kid), but as in correcting—I present a few things from this year's show that might've been done differently.
What happened: Lady Gaga dueted with Elton John; also something inarticulate about the "Fame Factory" (as opposed to the high school from Fame) and the spectator's complicity in celebrity culture.
What should have happened: Björk and the Knife team up to show everyone what crazy outfits and sexually ambiguous post-pop really looks like; Lady Gaga comes up with something new to say about the Society of the Spectacle or shuts up about it; Elton John stays home and draws a nice hot bath.
What happened: Michael Jackson's insanely cloying "Earth Song" (yeah, MJ, what about rainbows?) was performed by his disembodied voice along with Celine Dion, Usher, Jennifer Hudson, and Carrie Underwood, all backed by a 3-D video of some unmolested FernGully rainforest being explored by a (hopefully also unmolested) child.
What should have happened: 3-D enhanced re-creation of the 1996 Brit Awards performance of "Earth Song," featuring a hologram Michael Jackson, complete with Jarvis Cocker storming the stage to pantomime passing wind—but in 3-D!
What happened: Pink, as part of some linen-swathed, Cirque du Soleil soft-rock number, was dipped into a giant vat of goo, first six rows got wet.
What should have happened: Pink, as part of some linen-swathed, Cirque du Soleil soft-rock number, is dipped into a giant vat of carbonite, frozen, delivered to Jabba the Hutt.
What happened: Beyoncé marched onstage flanked by a battalion of riot-geared storm troopers to sing "If I Were a Boy," grabbed crotch, segued into Alanis Morissette's "You Oughta Know."
What should have happened: Beyoncé reactivates both the S1Ws and the Rhythm Nation soldiers to hold the Grammys hostage, grabs crotch, sings a Barenaked Ladies medley.

College Facility Notes: Crunch Time For Rose Bowl Renovations
Published August 7, 2012
SLOWING SALES: In S.F., Eric Young writes after "an initial burst of sales more than a year ago, purchases of the priciest seats" at the Univ. of Cal-Berkeley's Memorial Stadium "have stalled in recent months." All three types of premium seats "have seen small increases or none at all in the January-to-March quarter." Cal Deputy Athletics AD & COO Solly Fulp said, "The numbers are not where we would like them to be." Cal has sold 69% of its 3,200 premium seats, "which equates to $140 million in cash and pledges." The athletic department's goal is to sell 88% of premium seats, "equating to about $240 million in cash and pledges, by June 2013." To boost sales, Cal will "hire three sales people to approach local companies." Cal officials said that once potential buyers see the stadium, "they expect more buying" (S.F. BUSINESS TIMES, 8/3 issue).
FUNDS ARE DWINDLING: In Louisville, Marcus Green reports the KFC Yum! Center "is supposed to stock a renovation fund with millions of dollars each year to make major repairs and improvements." But the account "has dwindled to less than $4,000 -- from an April balance of more than $3 million -- after arena officials raided it to make a routine debt payment in June." Arena officials were "forced to take from the reserve account after expected tax revenues fell far short of expectations." Arena Authority execs and arena operator AEG officials said that the "diminished reserve fund is not a concern because the Yum! Center hasn't required significant repairs since opening in fall 2010" (Louisville COURIER-JOURNAL, 8/7).
PICK ME, PICK ME: In Cincinnati, John Erardi noted the Greater Cincinnati Sports Corporation, backed by the Univ. of Cincinnati and Xavier Univ. "has submitted a bid to host either the 2014 or 2015 NCAA Men's Division I basketball tournament at U.S. Bank Arena." The city of Cincinnati figures to have "about a 50-50 chance of landing the early-round games in either year, because about 55-56 cities are believed to be in the hunt for either first-round games, or second-/third-round games or the regionals." The two schools "would co-host the games" (CINCINNATI ENQUIRER, 8/6).

The Twitter versus Instagram episode just went from messy divorce to a no-holds-barred bare knuckle fight.
Just hours after Instagram officially shut off card integration on Twitter — meaning that you can no longer preview its photos — the social network launched its own photo filtering service.
The ability to take and filter photos directly from Twitter has been in the works for a while now. In what looks to be a bid on Twitter's part to claw users away from Instagram, its service offers a few extra options too.
Unlinke Instagram for instance, you don't have to have a square photo and can crop the ones you've taken freely. You can also take a bird's-eye view and see how each filter would affect your photo in a single grid view, or swipe through looks to compare your options.
The filters were built in collaboration with photo-editing specialist Aviary, which powers the filters and effects.
The update is available now on Google Play and the App Store.

Greencastle, Pennsylvania
From Chambersburg's PublicOpinionOnline.com of May 5, 2007
Our view: Purchase of gun ends thefts at area store
Merlony Colaco got robbed one too many times, and instead of shrugging and moving on, he did something about it.
The Greencastle merchant was mad and not going to take it anymore, so he bought a shotgun and caught a woman he didn't know inside his convenience store.
He also put the kibosh on what police call a recent string of local smash-and-grab robberies.
After his store, the Molly Pitcher Mini Mart, was broken into for the second time, Colaco picked up a shotgun and set up an after-hours stakeout.
In late March, his waiting reaped results when a brick sailed through his store window. Police said Erica Marie Lynch allegedly broke into the store to steal cigarettes for crack money.
Colaco was ready and police said he held her at bay until they arrived.
Thankfully, cool heads prevailed and no one was hurt.
Colaco refused to play the victim. He used his Second Amendment rights to buy a firearm and defend his property, and he did it with common sense.
Things could have turned ugly very easily in the moments before police arrived. Take a twitch, throw in a sarcastic remark, and add in the fact that perhaps Colaco had a bad day, and the result could have been needless bloodshed.
And the Greencastle store owner could have been left with a very serious legal problem.
Law enforcement apparently agreed — Colaco said they told Lynch, "You're lucky he didn't shoot you."
Lynch was charged with two counts of burglary and theft by unlawful taking. Her alleged accomplices received similar charges. Police believe the three hit other spots in Pennsylvania and Maryland.
All three are awaiting a preliminary hearing May 22 in Franklin County Court.
If the trio are found guilty, it's because Colaco took a leading role in bringing them to justice.

Okay, so you've had a super romantic evening with your partner. You may have had a nice meal, maybe a wine or two and something sweet, but now it's time to have the real dessert and…you're just not that into it. Shock horror, what's going on?!
Apparently, it could have been something you ate: "There are some scientific links to food that can decrease your libido," says sexologist and relationship expert Dr Nikki Goldstein. So here are a few foods researchers say to avoid if you'd rather sexy time than sleep.
Sugar and other high GI foods will have your blood-sugar levels soaring and studies suggest that testosterone levels can decrease by as much as 25 percent after a blood-sugar spike. So what does that mean? You might think testosterone is just a dude-related thing, but it's present in both men and women and it strengthens sexual desire – so a sudden decrease will have you reaching for your book quicker than he can say, "You look so sexy tonight."
While you might think a few gin and tonics will provide just the right amount of lubricant in the lead up to some sexy time, this bad boy gets two strikes for being a libido killer. Quinine is a flavouring agent used in tonic water and some other fizzy beverages and it has been linked to lowering sexual function. Put down that glass right now!
The alcohol part of the beverage is it's second offence. "When it comes to performance in the bedroom the biggest no-nos are smoking and drinking. These both have a negative impact on our sexuality and sexual functioning," says Nikki.
Trans Fats
Step away from that burger, donut, or meaty pizza right now because these kind of fats are the very worst-of-the-worst for cardiovascular health. You might wonder what that has to do with your libido but they're totally linked. A rush of blood to your privates is what makes for good lovin', so if your arteries are clogged (from gross fat) getting sexually stimulated will be harder. And speaking of harder, his member won't be able to do its thing if his heart health isn't up to scratch.
There is a lot of suggestion that while soy might not be so bad for women's libido, it can affect your Lothario's loving skills. The Journal of Nutrition suggests that soy may affect men's fertility by unbalancing testosterone levels and semen quality. One Harvard study also found that a diet high in soy can lead to erectile dysfunction because of the food's oestrogenic properties, which can zap testosterone levels.
However, before you despair that you can never eat or drink again and still enjoy a good sex life, Nikki says, "a small amount of these foods will not stop you from bedroom bliss." She suggests we just practice a little restraint when it comes to picking our pre-deed degustation. "Ingesting a meal that might make someone bloated or feeling heavy and sluggish is not exactly going to help them get in the mood and feel sexy and seductive. It's more of a case of physical logistics than aphrodisiacs."

text: I recently have purchased a Gen 4 G17 primarily for the purpose of home defense but also because I enjoy range shooting. I have been doing a lot of research into what type of 9mm ammo to use for home defense but I thought it best to take this question to someone who knows much more about it than I. This article is perhaps the best posted research on the subject I have seen but I wondered about its practicality in the real world. I've read that higher (127+) gr weight hollow points are a good direction to go. I first was really interested in the Winchester Ranger-T 127 gr JHP +P+ but I've seen some really negative performance reports on this ammo lately, usually related to poor expansion. Now I am looking at Speer Gold Dot 124gr JHP +P. While its smaller than I was hoping (and I still might move up to the Speer Gold Dot 145gr JHP), I have heard good things about its reliability and effectiveness. Thoughts on either of these ammunitions? Ideas about other good self defense ammos?

What Type of Boats are you Guys looking for?
Many years ago I had all intentions to manufacture a complete line of Larger semi and scale boat hulls to be powered with both gas or electric.
Recently on our forum some of our customers have shown interest in building these types of models and that was music to my ears.
We completed several patterns and molds before killing the project back in 1999, Today it is a different company and modeling world, and I now have the time as well as less stress an would like to complete them and bring them to market.
My visions were mostly hulls only and enable the modeler to construct the cabins, superstructure, etc.
I have asked my glass shop to build one of each of the following so I have pictures to show you:
55" Coast Guard Cutter Hull
55" Coast Guard Cutter ( Complete fiberglass hull, deck and cabin )
55" Yacht or Off Shore boat
48" Tug Boat
48" Tug Boat ( complete 7 piece fiberglass kit )
72" PT Boat Hull
55" Sail and or powered sailboat
60" PT Boat Hull
45" Coast Guard or Trawler Hull
The boat hulls will range between, $150.00 - $325.00 + shipping
I think you have a good general arrangemnt of choices there to start with. Get the parts made to show and even better if you can find photos of "like" vessels will help people get a better idea of what you are proposing. Another idea for scale folks is to give the scale as to what they would be ( ie 1/24, 1/16, 1/32 ect) as it gives one a general idea of style type boat. Question that I have is there going to be drawings available to go along with the prodjects or are they going to be seperate issue al together? Personally for me the CG, tug, and Trawler are of intrest..
Tugs !
Just like this one, 30's style, real curvy, but not 52 inches as this one is !
( Character Models Paula Ann )
In fact, 48 inches is a bit too big.
I think 40 is about as much as an old guy like me can build and get in the water.
Semi kit is definiteley what alot of people are looking for, even if its just the hull and a few deck house parts.
The monster in the pic comes with the deck already fused to the hull - Very helpful ( at least to me ).

Keith, So many good points you offer. I would like to start by manufacturing the hulls only and let you guys build more scratch. I would love nothing more than to make drawings, but my business obligations kind of get in the way these days. I have a little more time on my hands, but not enough to product drawings, and do not have the right people for that job. Yes I will provide photo's as they become available. Am I off base thinking that the majority of guys won't build without deck plans?
Remember, f/g hulls are like Gillette's razor handles... he gave 'em away free, and sold the blades!
So, you've only just started with the 'glass... your "blades" can be all the stuff to complete the models... drive kits, fittings, sound modules...
It's very sad that at one time I owned everything from metal spinning machines to injection molders, and all in between. By 2000 the hobby industry was quickly changing and we were being chased by our beloved domestic distributors whom hand carried our products to China to end up competing with them. I tell it like it is, that's the only way. It forced us and many others to manufacture in a different way to stay alive, and in turn I sold much of that equipment. I no longer have the in-house ability to make all the fittings and parts, and the industry is so fragmented that to start-up in an unstable market would mean certain death. I am hoping that we can get some interest and purchases to get this part of the industry jump started once again. If things did start to happen, then of course I would make a larger financial commitment, but for right now this is what I can offer.

Here is an old picture of the complete 48" Tug we are making again. This kit consists of (7) fiberglass pieces, and very easy to complete. I used all LGB figures and a soldering iron to make them do things they didn't normally do.
I know the picture is crappy, but I sold that model at the Chicago Toy Show in 87', so this is all I have left. I modeled it at the turn-of-the-century era and distressed the hull for more detail. ( some companies call this air-bubbles or mistakes ) Just kidding, it looks great! The deck is a two piece also in glass that I pulled from a planked pattern, so I transferred the wood details to the molds, I also distressed the floors to make them look walked on, they are molded in brown. I chose the red for the cabin to make it a fire boat and used a Robbie water cannon on the forward deck. I built it in only 3 days for the show and sold it on the first day, and the guy who purchased it was gracious enough to allow me to keep it in my booth till the shows end. We just sold a white one today and I will take pictures of all the parts.
We will also install the deck for a fee if instructed to do so.
My guys are re-arranging our 30 years of storage nightmare this week so molds and stuff is spread-out all over. I found a 20" pattern for a Tug boat. I don't know much about it, probably something I purchased some 25 or so years ago. I used to buy out small model boat companies, so I have hundreds of molds. Take a good look and let me know if this could be a candidate and worth the time and effort to make nice and make a mold. The beam is almost 8".
Keith, What about smaller hulls 20" - 30". I have some and they could offer smaller platforms to be many types of boats. Being raised in South Florida I would get to see boats manufactured from many types of hulls. The CG was famous for that with almost no two boats alike. Many confiscated boats would be cut up and made into custom vessels to suit their interests. I once had a good friend who owned a boat yard that would do this type of work for the Navy, CG, and other companies who had hulls and needed for work , or even go-fast boats to chase those who were working into the night....

I opened the door and used the putty knife to release the plastic locks on the choke cover pulling it away from the inside of the door. Moved the choke cover away from the door enough to get a phillips screwdriver on the two screws that hold the handle top the door. Unscrewed the handle noting which way the handle is positioned to the door (there is a top and bottom to the handle), fastened the new handle to the door and snaped the choke cover back in place. Easy fix!
Help other customers find the most helpful instructions.
Were these instructions helpful?
I removed the choke ring { inside gasket } from the door with a putty knife, exposing the two screws holding the handle to the door, removed the screws and replaced the handle. The choke ring pops back in.
Followed instructions described by others at this site. Pried up retaining fascia on the door to find access to two philips-head screws. Removed old broken handle and replaced with new. Snapped fascia back in place and that was it.

Join Beckett Media's Chris Olds and Bryan Hornbeck as they rip into a pair of 2012 Press Pass Essential Elvis packs in this latest edition of Box Busters.
What will they find inside? How can you win a box? Watch and find out …
Jailhouse Rock!
With my mother being a huge Elvis fan we had no choice but to like Elvis! I must admit though his songs are pretty darn good. My favorite song would probably have to be Hound Dog.
Hound Dog!!!!
If I win that box, I won't write upon on it "Return to Sender". All joking aside my favorite work of Elvis has to be "Kid Galahad." Wouldn't mind having that guy's life. Which brings up the question, will these cards hold their value when he re-surfaces."Elvis Lives!". Cool cards. Thanks guys.
Blue suede shoes
have to go with "a change of habit" with Mary Tyler More as his best movie. A little side note my ex's aunt went on a date with him in the early 50's during The Louisiana Hayride Show.
Suspicious Minds!!
My father is a huge Elvis fan, and I put together all of the Press Pass sets with as many inserts/insert sets as I could find in a binder for him for Christmas. It was a huge hit!
I would have to say that my favorite song is Hound Dog.
Heartbreak Hotel!! Since my baby left me…………
My most memorable moment was when Elvis sang "If I can Dream" on the 68 Comeback Special…Love it.
I may be to young for the Elvis Presley Generation but I am quite fond of his work.
Favorite Song: Jailhouse Rock (Just to name one)
Also enjoyed seeing him mentioned in Forrest Gump.
Hit me up at email@example.com
"Blue Hawaii" for me! By far one of his greatest movies and soundtracks in my opinion. His 8th film produced in 1961. The only bummer that it's a long musical that I remember watching with my grandmother. Oh, and Mr. George Klein was one of the King's oldest and most trusted friends. They knew each other since the 8th grade and later became part of T.C.B. (taking-care-of-business) badge carrying members. He was also one of Elvis's best men in his wedding. Great box busting!
long beach,Ca
It's now or never
Suspicious Minds is my favorite Elvis tune. I also have a soft spot in my heart when I hear Eric Cartman singing In The Ghetto.
Little less conversation, a little more action. Nice break. Thanks for the contest.
A Little Less Conversation – JXL Remix — Made a great song even better
So many great songs but if I have to choose will be" Love Me Tender."
Favorite Elvis Song: Love Me Tender. Great looking cards there!
How can you not like Heartbreak Hotel.. Easily one of my favorite songs ever.
"Suspicous Minds" (Though I do like Chris Isaak's version and video better)
Blue Christmas!
Hey Chris and Brian, Suspicious Minds is my favorite.
So many to choose from, but Hound Dog is probably my favorite.
Crying in the Chapel-awesome work by the King and his Men!
Fools Rush In !!!
Elvis has left the building!
Oops, I meant Elvis Presley – Can't Help Falling In Love
Suspicious Minds
I remember seeing the Hawaiian Concert special on TV when I was about 7 or 8 years old and my grandparents were at my house and they thought he was terrible! Favorite song is Suspicious Minds.
My mom is was a HUGE Elvis fan, and Ive heard probably almost every Elvis song recorded and I have two favorites, Promised Land, and In the Ghetto.
If that box is delivered to my house, I won' write upon it "Return to Sender". My favorite Elvis work is the movie "Kid Galahad" Will these cards hold their value when the king re-surfaces. "Elvis Lives"! Cool cards. Thanks guys.
Can't Help Falling in Love
song: C. C. Rider
Movie: King Creole
Album: memories the 68 comeback special
My favorite performance is amazing grace … such soul when he sings this! How sweet the sound!
I sing to my 21 month old a favorite song of mine from Elvis is Hound Dog
American Trilogy is by far his best song. I have to go with Viva Las Vegas for the best movie since Ann Margaret is smoking!!! Can't wait to get my hands on some of this!
I'm all shook up is my favorite Elvis song, and Blue Hawaii is my favorite Elvis movie.
Ooops forgot my email: firstname.lastname@example.com
OK, being the homer that I am (Minneapolis) I have to go with the Mary Tyler Moore movie Change of Habit. Would love to see another auto from her in the third box, very cool high end product!
Best work of Elvis, FRIED PEANUT BUTTER AND BANANA SANDWICHES!!!
He might not have invented them, but he is the reason my Mom used to make them for me.
I had bought 1 pack of Elvis lives and got one of the Jordanares auto.
The "KING of Rock and ROll will live on and my favorite Elvis item is the show on NBC the black leather outfit . Also song Blue Christmas blu blu blu without you……
Don't be cruel…I would agree with Jim, that Viva Las Vegas is one of hus better works, also love Blue Hawaii.
Not a song or anything by him, I like all of the Elivs impersonators. You just need a good laugh some times.
Hound Dog!!!!!
You guys Rock!!!!!! Best Elvis work Blue Moon ok Kentucky!!! Go Cats!!!!
My favorite Elvis song is Heartbreak Hotel
In the Ghetto! Thanks!
Jailhouse rock!
suspicious minds
In the cold "Kentuck Rain"!!!
The First CD I ever bought was Elvis's Greatest Hits. My favorite Elvis song is "Jailhouse Rock".
Sorry…forgot my email!!
Heartbreak Hotel!!
Hound Dog was a classic. You can't go wrong with it. With so many hits, what's the price on these puppies? I see you guys break lots of packs/boxes out of my realm of affordability, and would assume this is one as well. The Mary Tyler Moore auto would be an incredible find, though!
1956, Love Me Tender, Twentieth Century Fox MOVIE
You Can't Say No In Acapulco SONG
Recorded: 1963/01/23, first released on Fun In Acapulco
I gotta ( BURNING LOVE ) for Elvis…………..
By far In the Ghetto
By far "Love me tender" was he's #1 song of all time. Ever girl in the country at that time, melted when he sang this song.
Heartbreak Hotel!
Love Me Tender
Can't help falling in love
Suspicious Minds. Great looking cards!
Heartbreak Hotel
In the Ghetto is my favorite song, firstname.lastname@example.com
I can remember mowing yards on the weekend and going to the local record store to Buy the Latest single or album. That is back when they were still vinyl. Actually met "The King" at the Fabulous Forum in Inglewood Ca. before a show there in 1970. I was a 16 year old kid who was dumb struck, but the Man was genuine and really nice. As for favorite song, so many, but I would have to go the Gospel route and pick "How Great thou Art". If I win great, if not that is cool too. You guys are great, and your grading service is supreme.
My life is Elvis, I am an extremely obssesed with the king, and I continue to spread his music so that all generations can carry on his legend! One of My Favorite songs was, "Trouble".
My favorite is Suspicious Minds, as I was born the day it premiered on the Billboard charts. That, or Little Sister–that song rocks.
i have been a fan all my life of elvis l live in england and would love to win this as they are not for sale in UK …l love all elvis music but if l had to introduce elvis to someone new l would pick the memphis sessions he did in 69..or then his sundays and rock n rool number 2 album ..how great thou art for gospel fans and promised land for easy listening country fans ..you can go wrong with Elvis ever TCEalways maria xl would treasure this box if l won thank you

Clearly I'm new.
The problem. I dl free audio books to an old, tiny, cheap MP3 player so I can listen to them at work. The problems are the player can only display a very short file name and uses some weird settings to list the 'songs' and many times this means the files are not in the proper order. To fix this I have to do three things:
1) Change the tract number. The FAQ showed me how to do this.
2) Change the title to something very short and put a number after it, e.g.. Mystery 01, Mystery 02. I have searched the forum and the FAQ and can't figure out how to do this. I know this can not be that difficult. There must be a 'string' I can just put in the "Title" block which would allow me to do it.
3) Change the file name to match title. I use another program to do this. Can MP3TAG do this?

I would start by filling in the ALBUM field for all of the files in a book, containing the name without the track number. Select all of the files in the book, then in the left-hand tag panel, fill in the ALBUM field and hit Save .
After you've added the ALBUM name and the track numbers, you can change both the TITLE and file name. You want to use Mp3tag 'Actions' to do this, so read the help on this topic. Create an action group ( button) containing two actions in the following order:
Action type: Format value
Field: TITLE
Format string: %album% $num(%track%,2)
Action type: Format value
Field: _FILENAME
Format string: %title%

If you have filled the TITLE field so that it looks like it should, you can easily rename the file.
Use the converter Tag-Filename with the mask
The converter has a preview which makes it probably easier to figure out what is to be expected.
The second action that jjjohnson has listed has the same result, though, yet no preview.

What are nice areas to live in - bit of greenery, access to Pentlands within a reasonable biking distance (5k ish), primary schools. You know, places you would live.
And any other top tips appreciated.
Chat Forum
Edinburgh dwellers
What are nice areas to live in - bit of greenery, access to Pentlands within a reasonable biking distance (5k ish), primary schools. You know, places you would live.
Fairmilehead, Colinton, Juniper Green, Currie, Balerno
I'm currently in the latter (though moving soon). Schools are well thought of, 30 minutes cycling (off road) gets you into the centre of town. Pentlands are straight out my door.
However, there are decent cycle paths throughout Edinburgh so you can get to the hills, and around town, fairly simply.
Oh - do you want to buy a house?
Eventually yes but we will rent for the first year or so while we a)skive off for 6 months and b)get re-established. I have very exacting requirements as i need somewhere for the brewery!
Most of it's nice if funds allow. Somewhere along Lanark Road, Bonaly, Colinton - they'd all do - for the Pentlands.
Tell us more about this brewery.
Scotroutes, first dibs if you're sticking it on classifieds, PayPal OK?
Balerno would be my first choice (which is why I live there!) but as the others mentioned - Colinton, Currie, Juniper Green and Fairmilehead would also be good.
I'm not sure what any of them are like for renting though.
Fairmilehead, Frogston, posh end of Buckstone if it were me. Right next to the Pentlands, and there's plenty land for sale at the back of Buckstone/Frogston that's ripe for building a nice brewery on...
Another vote for Balerno. Good schools, on the bus route into Edinburgh and trails within minutes
You do realise that Invercargill is at a similar latitude to central France and that Edinburgh is nearer to the Arctic circle than the tropic of Cancer, don't you?
I think you have post natal depression and should do this test.
Please don't do it, you are one of the few people on here who post posoitvely about their lifestyles. Next thing we know it'll be Mc Moonter has moved into a flat with an electric fire in Tower Hamlets, Stoner has sent his On-Ones to the crusher, and CFH is describing Sere Ché slack country as "pants".
My lifestyle is great, but it's not just about me any more. For the first time in my life there are other priorities and change is a good thing right ?
Edinburgh is quite a small city, as you know, so you can live quite far out and still be 'in' Edinburgh in terms of your lifestyle. Flipside of that is you can live quite far in and still ride to the Pentlands with nae bother.
Big decision is whether you want suburban living or not - the southern suburbs and towns mentioned thus far are very boring and could be anywhere (Balerno has some schemies and a schemie-restaurant, so granted that is quite Edinburgh). This may be what the doctor ordered depending on schools, big garden for the kids etc - I'm suburan living myself atm, but personally I'd look further in a little. Bruntsfield or Morningside if you can afford a house there - you're living in Edinburgh then rather than a peripheral suburb. Marchmont is also nice and quiet (and expensive, like all inner-suburbs of Edinburgh).
Two v strong state schools in Edinburgh are Gillespies and Boroughmuir, in Marchmont and Bruntsfield respectively. You might look at living somewhere S central that feeds into these high schools.
Thanks for all his. Before I left I lived down in comely park so the s side is an unknown. Will able. Look round when we are back and assess budget and options. We both fancy a bit more inner than outer city living which could be a nice contrast.
I'm moving to Longstone next month. There's a Sainsbury's being built close by and looks like I'll be close Pentlands. It being cheap is the main benefit to me though!
I'm not sure what Edukator is on about. I've been to Invercargill and it's nothing like France. Edinburgh is the 2nd happiest city in the UK (link). To me it seems like a great place to live in terms of culture etc. and access to the great outdoors. There is also a shop in Morningside that stocks Mac beers...although if you brew your own maybe Mac beers aren't your thing
Morningside for good state primary (South Morningside) and secondary (Boroughmuir) access*, but it really aint cheap, and you might struggle to rent somewhere family-sized. You can get to the pentlands with less than a mile on roads too, which is nice.
* I assume they're still good, they were when I attended... admittedly a while ago now. Though I did still live in the area till recently.
At present the Gaelic Medium School feeds into Gillespies High School. The catchment for the GME school is all of Edinburgh and they pick up and drop off your kids for you. Something to consider.
Sounds like you are looking for a house rather than a flat, in which case Morningside where I live might be a bit dear, the houses round here are a touch grand. No neds though which is why I like it here.
Anywhere southern Edinburgh is really quick to the Pentlands, the rest depends on your budget probably. There's more good bits than bad bits on the south too. Bonaly/Torphin is somewhere I'd like to live, Balerno is nice too but I wonder if the slow road into town would become annoying. The cheaper bits like Oxgangs and colinton mains probably aren't too bad on the scale of things, friends of mine were quite happy there though someone was muddured round the corner from their house.
Living outside of Edinburgh somehwere like Roslin gives you a lot more bang for your buck though, and quicker access to the Borders, worth considering. Some superb villages in East Lothian too.
I'm not entirely sure, but I get the impression from previous posts that NZCol doesn't need to worry about the cost of houses in Morningside.
I lived in Edinburgh for 10 years and I quite like the Peebles bit.
As I recall you live in Wellington ? That's where I grew up. The schools are awful in Scotland by comparison unless you go private.
Ah yes, the Gaelic kids bus, it's shameful pandering by the ECC to avoid spending money on a Gaelic school they know there will be no use for when the SNP get voted out.
Ah yes, the Gaelic kids bus, it's shameful pandering by the ECC to avoid spending money on a Gaelic school they know there will be no use for when the SNP get voted out.
But they do have their own school now. At least I hope they do, or my kids will be a bit bored in a couple of weeks time.
Ha yes budget is within reason really - a straight swap for what we have here yields some nice places. Anyhoo, we are back in few weeks for a month so will do a complete and full assessment and then see what we think. Its a really tough call (more for me than anything as i have been here 13 years, wife for 7) but the draw of having family within the hour and letting our girl know her gran(nies), aunts uncles and cousins is a serious pull. Enough to give up what we have now ?....who knows. Thanks for all the input and if I do come back I will be desparately seeking riding partners and other manly men to drink beer with (have own brewery - 100ltr stainless effort which will be shipped back!)
You should think about Colinton. That's where we stay.
I'm a two minute cycle to the Pentlands.
I'm a 25 minute cycle to the centre of town, much of that on quiet roads or the canal path.
I'm a 35 minute drive to Glentress.
We are close to the bypass and can be in the Cairngorms in two and a half hours on a Saturday morning.
Biking aside, the local primary is highly sought after, it is a very quiet, peaceful area and probably has more trees than the rest of Edinburgh. Great if you like trees.
Stayed for over a dozen years (I think) in outer Morningside (Craighouse) - right by the Napier campus Craighouse on the hill. That might be quite pricey to rent, our house was definitely on the cheap side due to being up the end of a dirt track
But it was easy access to green space (the Napier campus, parks) and as for Pentlands access, could be on top of Capelaw in about 30/35 minutes.. (I was fitter then!) Dreghorn barracks and then under the bypass into the Pentlands itself.
George - (sorry segue into Gaelic language politics) the SNP want ECC to extend the Gaelic medium education in Edinburgh, Tollcross provision is a compromise, as is the bus which you must agree is ridiculous ! (Imagine the outcry if a hebrew or hindi school expected the council to ferry kids from all over town every morning.) I did a lot of research on this a couple of years ago for a work project.
I get the impression from previous posts that NZCol doesn't need to worry about the cost of houses in Morningside.
Just as well, http://www.espc.com/properties/details.aspx?pid=323998&sid=21169609162
If you want to slum it you could probably pick up a semi or terrace for around the half mill.
£1.5m house and they've got an old banger in the driveway!!
Are they making a gaelic school so they can continue to convert road signs to places with names that have never had any gaelic origins into gaelic at immense expense?
Nah - they're making a gaelic school so that people who have been taught in gaelic can continue to achieve better results in a language they haven't been taught (english) than those who are taught using that language.

Yup, and if you sort it to show cheapest first you get this one:
Hardly a bank buster, given the average price of houses in Edinburgh.
Or you could quit the rat-race, pay a significant amount less than that and pick up a picturesque 19th century farm cottage over the water in Fife.
looks like a Minor soft-top, hardly banger material
Anyway, for every flash car outside an Edinburgh town house, there's three or four nondescript Golfs and maybe a Saab, for the folk like invest in property rather than a depreciating asset !!
But then you'd live in fife. I imagine you'd get more for your money in Basra too bit it doesn't make me want to live there!
But then you'd live in fife.
Good point, well made. I concede the argument.
The Flying Ox - MemberWhat's the current timeline for the road bridge falling over? Fife with no easy means of escape - a life sentence.
But then you'd live in fife.
Good point, well made. I concede the argument.
Guess you'd bet on the rail bridge having another century or two left in it.
I think it's due for cataclysmic failure sometime in 2016.
As a state-sector teacher who lives in Fife, I'm not feeling the love here...

Liverpool had Simon Mignolet to thank for getting them to Wembley in midweek after they suffered another disappointing loss in 90 minutes and were taken to penalties by Stoke. Despite this, and the fact they've been beaten comfortably by West Ham twice already this season, they remain heavy favourites for the late kick-off on Saturday evening.
Liverpool's form in front of goal is wildly inconsistent right now as they've scored 3, 0, 3, 5, and 0 in their last five matches but one thing that is consistent is that they look highly unconvincing. The 3-3 home draw with Arsenal was their best performance in their last six games but it was another home game they failed to win and in their last 17 matches at Anfield in all competitions they've won only six times in 90 minutes. Those wins came against Villa, Bournemouth, Bordeaux, Swansea, Leicester and Exeter, and the only time they won by more than one goal was the replay with League Two Exeter. Furthermore, their two home games in the Cup last season both finished goalless, against lower league Bolton and Blackburn.
West Ham clearly have nothing to fear in this trip and were unfortunate not to complete a league double over Man City at the weekend. They've lost just three of their last 13 away matches in all competitions and while Liverpool face a trip to leaders Leicester on Tuesday they have the easier prospect of a home tie against bottom of the table Villa. Liverpool also have to overcome the affects of 120 minutes of action in midweek and the continued absence of the likes of Philippe Coutinho so now looks as good a time as any to take them on.

On this fascinating audio program, Zukav and New Dimensions Radio host Michael Toms discuss the future, one that is exploding with possibility and potential. Zukav explains that as we communicate more and more with the nonphysical world and comprehend the deep spiritual dynamics that underlie the surface appearances of our physical reality, we gain "authentic power." He reveals how to get in touch with this power to become a "multisensory" person and gain access to data that your five senses cannot provide. As you listen to this spirited dialogue, you'll see how to develop your intuitive powers, better understand the nature of male-female relationships, learn techniques to help your personality become aligned with your soul...and much more!

I thought I was getting a book or at least something with substance since it was only a dollar less than a regular audiobook would have cost, but it was an interview basically, that was less than an hour. I should have read more closely.

Rivals250 quarterback Brogan Roback has made many unofficial campus visits out-of-state over the last several months, but this past weekend the Toledo St. John's signal caller stayed in Ohio to visit the home state Buckeyes.
The 6-4, 190-pound Roback only just recently started to receive recruiting interest from Ohio State. His school sent offensive lineman Jack Mewhort to Columbus in the 2009 class, but Roback was not necessarily expecting early interest from the in-state school.
"Getting interest from them all of the sudden caught me off guard at first," Roback said. "I also wasn't surprised, on the other hand, because you heard Urban Meyer say he was going to put a fence around Ohio and keep the best players here. I figured he was living up to what he said."
Article Continues Below
Sunday's junior day visit gave Roback a chance to go from hearing about Meyer and his staff to getting to know them on a more personal level.
"I talked to Coach [Luke] Fickell and I like him a lot. He is a good man, really personable," Roback said. "I finally got to meet Coach [Tom] Herman, and I'm glad I got to do that. He said he's watched my film and likes that I am an accurate passer. He said he wants to work with his quarterbacks at least one day in a summer camp."
Roback was encouraged by the feedback he received from the Ohio State coaches and expects to throw for them this summer. Herman discussed the offense Ohio State planned to employ in the coming years, and Roback feels he could fit with their plans.
"He said they are going to run spread, which doesn't mean they are going to sling the ball around every play," Roback said. "They are going to be balanced, they are going to run the ball and I think I could fit in there. I know they are going after a lot of guys that can run and move, but I think I can help them out with my arm and I can move as well."
Roback is still looking for his first BCS offer, but he has junior day visits with Cincinnati (Feb. 18), Michigan State (Feb. 25) and Illinois (March 10) which could produce scholarship offers.

Choosing to once again record at Blank Spaces studio in Toronto with Dave Misner in 2004, Tall Tales was an over the top pop record to please all the senses. Each song weighed in at under 3-4 minutes and was all about the production. "I used every trick I could think of. Every instrument that was in the room I tried. It was totally an experiment in layers. I added track upon track of vocals and instruments. I even used the clunkiest upright piano I have ever played – just because it fit the sound."
Moving from sweet ballads to pop rock grandiose numbers, Royal planned a voyage of sweet bliss. "I wanted it to be a throwback to the days of the Beatle's and the Beach Boys".
Released on Maple/Unniversal in June 2004, the finished product won national praise and critical success across Canada and set the stage for what was to come.

In the surly and shoegazey musical climate of the '90s, New York's Jon Spencer Blues Explosion stuck out like a sore thumb. Sure, they were as loud as Soundgarden or My Bloody Valentine. Louder, maybe, because Spencer, guitarist Judah Bauer and drummer Russell Simins all came up through the East Coast noise-rock underground, most notably Spencer in Washington, D.C. trash-scuzz pioneers Pussy Galore.
But in the Blues Explosion, the flamboyant front man performed with a sweat-dripping intensity — squarely derived from the likes of Elvis and James Brown — that was almost completely foreign to the period. The band also had a completely unironic (if not exactly reverent) appreciation of the blues, perhaps best articulated on 1997's acclaimed R.L. Burnside collaboration A Ass Pocket of Whiskey.
The threesome went their separate ways for a while after 2004's Damage, but now the Blues Explosion is back in all its signifyin' glory. Last year Shout! Factory reissued six of the band's albums, including Orange, Acme and Now I Got Worry, with copious previously unreleased and live tracks, plus the 22-track compilation Dirty Shirt Rock 'N' Roll: The First Ten Years.
Jon Spencer Blues Explosion
With Boosy Cray, 8 p.m. Thursday, May 5, at Warehouse Live, 813 St. Emanuel, 713-225-5483 or www.warehouselive.com.
"I tried to be as complete as possible and include everything and anything that the band recorded at the time of the albums," says Spencer, who also continues to explore his rootsier rockabilly side in NYC trio Heavy Trash. "And we were a very busy band."
C: What are a few of your favorite previously unreleased tracks?
JS: On the Extra Width album, our second album, there's some really great live material from the session we did for a cable-access program. On the album Orange, there's a song called "Haircut," which we recorded and then just forgot about. There's also some material on the Orange reissue from a show we did at CBGB's the night before we went into the studio to record the album.
It was hard for me, because my memory's not so good. It was a bit like a jigsaw puzzle for these reissues. I'd be looking at a reel of tape and I had no idea what the title [was] — if it was a song that never made it to the album, I didn't know what it was. It was a little like feeling my way around in the dark.
C: Do you think the Blues Explosion was ahead of its time?
JS: Maybe a little. I think we definitely turned on a lot of people. It seems to me we inspired a bunch of bands, and (laughs) I think maybe we were a little too ahead of our time. Some of what we do, it's confusing to people. I think we're a great band, but my heroes were people like the Velvets, the Stooges, bands which were totally misunderstood or ahead of their time.

Yeah, it would be nice to be driving around in a Cadillac and be a millionaire, and have platinum records, but the stuff that made me want to play rock and roll — people like the Velvets, like the Stooges and MC5, Suicide, all these different kind of crazy bands, those are my heroes and that's the stuff that inspired me.
C: Are your live shows still as much of a workout as they used to be?
JS: Yes. We're firmly committed to that same ideal of showmanship and a transcendent, communal event that a good rock and roll concert can be. We're totally committed to that, and I think there's some kind of spark, or something that happens between the three of us that allows us to make this music.
We also work very, very hard. You can't just get up and play the kind of show that we play without really practicing and working on your moves.

By Stacie Spring, March 5, 2014, Snohomish County Tribune
Years after the contentious demolition of the Collins Casket Building, the Port of Everett opened $400,000 worth of historical interpretive elements to the public this week.
"It was a very long, creative process," port spokeswoman Lisa Lefeber said.
The historical installation was designed to showcase the three early economic drivers for the city—lumber and shingle production, commercial fishing and boat building.
There is a huge sawmill rising up near the port's headquarters, a huge boat at the Jetty Island boat launch and interactive displays.
The exhibits are essentially designed as a walking tour and are incorporated into different areas in the port, Lefeber said.
"It's important for every place to honor its heritage," said Valerie Steele, a former Historic Everett president. "Every place matters for a number of reasons, but it matters for the people who came before and built it, for the people who live here today and for the people in the future who will come here. How else will people know why Colby Avenue is Colby Avenue? Or what the Rockefellers have to do with anything? Or why the Wall Street Building is on Wetmore?"
(Because Everett's forefathers wanted it to look like New York City, Steele disclosed.)
"You wouldn't know it if you looked at the waterfront now, but it was covered in lumber mills," Steele said. "Everyone's livelihood was tied to the mills, even the merchants' livelihoods were tied to the mills."
The port commissioned local historians and brothers Larry and Jack O'Donnell to pull together the information used in the project. Their work, accumulated in a 153-page book, was then translated into the signage, Lefeber said.
"We had to look at what kind of content tells the best story," she said. "How do you tell it in a cohesive manner? How do you connect it with the site?"
Under an agreement approved by the Port Commission in 2009 between Historic Everett, the port, the Washington Trust for Historic Preservation and the state's HIstoric Preservation Officer, the installation would help offset the historical loss of the Collins Building to the waterfront.
When the port wanted to develop the North Arena, an area that included the Collins Building, many residents became deeply involved in saving the building.
"Because there was federal permits involved, certain things had to occur," Steele said. During the permit process, the port agreed to install interpretive historical signage.
Additionally, part of that process was identifying places of historical significance, she said.
"People at the time correctly identified the Collins Building as one of those things," she said.
The Collins Building, which was built in 1926 and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, was acquired by the port in 1991 and later removed after it could not be repurposed or moved by the port.
The installation includes a number of art installations, interactive displays and also includes the informational website, www.historiceverettwaterfront.com.

Toronto FC centre back Dicoy Williams hasn't played in a first team football match since June 10, 2011. On international duty with Jamaica that day, Williams suffered a torn ACL that has kept him out of action for over a year.
An appearance could be near for the 25-year old defender, but it may come at the expense of a teammate who suffered a similar fate last season, just weeks earlier.
RELATED: Mariner | Lambe | Morgan
Video: TFC centre back Dicoy Williams.
Central defender Adrian Cann left the match Saturday with an injury, the extent of which will not be clear until an MRI is performed later this week in Toronto, head coach Paul Mariner confirmed to Toronto FC TV after training Monday in Houston.
That potentially creates an opening for Williams, who was part of a 19-man Toronto squad that traveled for the two-game road trip.
Williams admitted he was overjoyed to "see his name on the board" before Toronto departed from the Kia Training Ground in Downsview late last week.
"I'm going to take it from there, use this trip as a positive trip," Williams said. "I was so happy, I called my mom … I've been thinking of nothing but putting on the Toronto FC jersey."
What type of minutes Williams may see remains unclear. When Cann exited Saturday's contest, Richard Eckersley shifted from his fullback role to play centre back as Williams was not on the first 18 in Kansas City. Mariner had intended to bring him along slowly, get him used to being around the first team.
Cann meanwhile, remains upbeat that a quick recovery is possible. It is the same attitude that won him plaudits from trainers and teammates as he worked tirelessly to recover from his own ACL tear to return inside a year.
Toronto meets Houston at the brand new BBVA Compass Stadium on Wednesday night. The match will be broadcast live on TSN and on radio, Sportsnet FAN 590, at 9 p.m. ET.

OI! FATTY! IT'S JANUARY SO YOU'D BEST GET ON THE TREADMILL! Is what I'd be shouting at you if I wasn't one of you; a Festive over-indulger that left a world of salad and steak for one populated almost exclusively by Toblerone and Terry's Chocolate Oranges. We've all been there and now you're probably sitting clutching your list of New Year's Resolutions desperately trying to convince yourself that you'll achieve all of the things on it.
You won't.
Why should you? You're your own person and you don't need a list of goals to tell you that you should probably crack open a bag of cress every now and then before you start to resemble Michelle MacManus & Rik Waller's illicit love-child. You don't even need a list of goals to tell you that it might be time to get yourself on a dating website and meet someone new before you fall into the arms of an ex-lover because you're horribly lonely.
None of that matters though because there's always something better than a list and in this case adverts are willing to take on the role of your conscience and the New Year ad schedule is packed with sanctimonious bullshit designed to get you out there into the world looking?svelte?and feeling amazing thanks to some pro-biotic yogurt.
That's the thing about adverts, isn't it? They play up to an accepted norm about the society that you live in. Take the hideous Morrisons advert in which two middle-aged children discuss the recession and the need for people to 'tighten their belts' in January. You think this is fine because they're Northern but they're actually creating a sickening dystopian vision of a world where children are no longer free to be children and have to think about food vouchers and Freddie Flintoff's bath of gold doubloons. Of course, Morrisons are trying to add an innocent expression onto something that responsible adults seem to talk about all the time whereas some ad campaigns are just cynical.
Take a moment, shut your eyes and imagine a meeting room where six people are sitting. None of them are wearing suits or any kind of formal business attire and one is wearing a pair of tattered brogues with no socks. One man fiddles nervously with his spectacles as he examines the stoney faces around the room. They've been given the ultimate contract; a weight loss brand that needs a change of direction.
One woman in the group suddenly rolls back in her ergonomic back-supporting office chair and makes a loud exclamation of joy. "I've got it," she shouts, "why don't we show overweight people that if they follow the Weight Watchers plan, it'll make them thin?!"
There is a stunned silence in the meeting room and the glass walls begin to de-mist as their collective breath is held. Everyone looks to the man wearing a rugby shirt at the head of the table. He nods sagely and the room erupts in applause. The creatives have done it again! Fat people can be thin and they will show them the light!
"Wait though!" Cries the man with no socks. "How can we convince our target audience of saturated fatties that they want to be thin and beautiful?" The room falls silent again: all that can be heard is the nervous tapping of pens on the table.
"What about writing a song and getting a pop star to sing it?" The quietest woman suggests. "We could make the lyrics really motivational so that they really speak to our target market?"
There is some muted discussion in the room. It's too quiet for us to hear but we all know that they're discussing who to have sing it. Rik Waller and Michelle MacManus are busy making babies and Craig Colton from last year's X Factor is far too shit. They need someone that people can aspire to be like. Someone sassy and respectable that will quite literally sell their soul for money.
If only there was someone that fitted the bill. They have a long conversation and seem to come up with nothing. They're standing up to leave, presumably off to think about it over some champagne and oysters when a Britain's Got Talent judge walks into their office, looking for scraps.
"Hark!" They cry in unison as this fictional account becomes alarmingly Dickensian. They've found their woman. A sassy, respectable woman with a big, idiotic face who would quite literally sell her soul for money. They don't even need to negotiate with her. Alesha's shaking hands with them all before they even name a figure. Her only stipulation is that she doesn't have to touch any of the fatties and that she doesn't have to rap. She's moving in a new direction.
Now you know how the Play Weight Watchers campaign came into being, aren't you a little more open to its message and its 3 minutes and 14 seconds of bad miming, worse dancing and sanctimonious 'body positive' thrust? Doesn't the sight of these people who, you've got to hand it to them, look great inspire you to go out there and go to meetings, living by a strict 'point controlled' system which requires you to lose weight by emptying your wallet?
Or does it still make you want to tear your own eyes out and stuff them into your ears so that you don't have to see or hear this abomination ever again? What's it going to be, fatso?

Sará Reynolds Green, a schoolteacher, and her husband Bill supply their Gullah Grub restaurant with food from their farm. Students work the land with them and learn how to grow, harvest, sell, and cook fresh food. They have a 14-week CSA with 25 people who all volunteer in some way or another at the farm. The Greens want to connect people to the land and give students experiences to help them build character and entrepreneurial skills. They use their fresh ingredients to cook Gullah dishes like Hoppin' John, red rice, seafood gumbo, and fish stew.
