Happy Wednesday, friends! I hope your week is going well. Mine has been quite busy since I practically got nothing done over the weekend, but it was a whole lot of fun. Remember I mentioned in my last post that we were going to Jeff Koon's exhibit? Well, that was a good call because we really enjoyed the visit. The recurring theme in this exhibit is the transformation of everyday objects into art; some of the pieces were mind-blowing and daring, others were just strange and bizarre.
There's a ten foot tall playdoh, made of aluminum painted to resemble playdoh. This took Koons 20 years to build!
There are a lot of inflatables…
And large shiny sculptures…
Some are whimsical…but they make you blush a little ;)
Split Rocker is one of Koons' iconic work, inspired by his son's pony and dinosaur toy rockers.
Finally, my favorite one is this piece with inflatable pool toys entangled in a metal trash can. It didn't occur to me that they are in fact made of polychromed aluminum, not inflated plastic. Sometimes your eyes can really trick you!
Right after our museum visit, we started to get hungry, so made our way over to Xian Famous Foods for lunch. I have never been there before so I ordered the Spicy Cumin Lamb Noodle Soup, a popular dish, and James had the Spicy and Tingly Beef Noodles – they were both delicious! It was not as spicy as I had expected, but I really liked it. There were many more items on the menu I wanted to try (I heard the lamb burgers were good too). Must go back again!
Sunday started super early, as we had a train to catch to go up to Port Washington with our friends for some sailing. The day was not too hot, had a bit of a breeze going, and was just perfect for being out on the waters.
We passed by some fancy houses mansions in Long Island Sound. Does that remind you of…Gatsby?
Last night, James met up with me after work at Clinton Hall for a Sam Adams Single Hop Series event where we tried some delicious brews.
Afterwards, we headed home to try cooking burgers on our plate grill, which turned out fantastic. The resulting burger patty wasn't too dry or greasy. Homemade burger is the way to go!

Scrapped Police Targets See Less Children Arrested in Dorset
8:27am 27th May 2014
There's been a dramatic fall in the number of children being arrested by Dorset Police.
According to the Howard League of Penal Reform child arrests in the county have dropped by 74% over the last 5 years.
Research shows 3,173 under 17's were detained in 2008, compared to 815 in 2013.
Andrew Neilson from the Howard League Of Penal Reform says the high numbers were due to Police arrest targets which have now been removed.
"You could round up some kids on the streets late in the evening, and make quite a few arrests, whereas spending a bit more of police time of the local drug dealer or burglar will only get you one arrest. Luckily these targets have now gone."
Frances Crook, Chief Executive of the Howard League for Penal Reform, said: "It is encouraging to see that Dorset Police are making significantly fewer arrests of children than they were in 2008, thanks in part to our effective campaigning.
"Most police services in England and Wales have developed successful local initiatives that resolve issues quickly and cheaply, involve victims in the justice process and, crucially, avoid criminalising boys and girls.
"A sharp fall in the number of children entering the justice system is good news for everyone striving to reduce crime and saves the taxpayer untold millions.
"The challenge for police now is to maintain this trend. At a time of austerity, further reducing the number of children arrested would free up more officer time to deal with serious crimes."
Dorset Police gave this statement to Wessex FM:
"As long ago as 2007 Dorset Police identified that worrying high numbers of children and young persons were being arrested and finding themselves entering the criminal justice system for what were in many instances very minor offences.
"In response and together with one of the local Youth Offending teams in 2008 Dorset Police piloted a Restorative Justice Scheme for young offenders, where they were required to face up to their offending by meeting with the victim. The pilot proved very successful particularly with the victims involved and in successive years the scheme was introduced across Dorset."
"The reduction in arrests does not mean that we are not dealing with these young person's offending behaviour, and together with the Youth Offending Teams we have managed many Restorative Justice Conferences in Dorset where young offenders met with the victims of their crimes and were held personally to account for their actions."
"We continue to monitor and evaluate our approach to dealing with young offenders. We recognise that many of these offenders are potentially vulnerable and the Youth Offending Teams are involved right from the outset, with extensive background checks being made to ensure that the appropriate support is given to vulnerable offenders."
"Dorset Police and Dorset Youth Offending Teams are very proud of the massive reductions we have achieved in the numbers of children and young persons being brought into custody. For some young offenders it will remain entirely appropriate to arrest them, but where we can address young people's offending without bringing them into custody we will."

The Game of Thrones author George RR Martin was told the other week of readers concerns that he might not live long enough to finish the fantasy series. His 'come at me bro' response was absolutely priceless.
Not only was he quoted as replying, "fuck you to those people", he stuck up his middle finger just to really ram the message home.
The best thing about this overreaction for me is who he is directing his rageful response at. I mean it's essentially his biggest fans, the people who admire his work so much that they cannot bear the thought of not knowing the what happens in the end. Fuck them!
You know what I'd do if I was Mr Martin? I'd threaten them with a terrible ending to the books, warn them that if they carry on he will kill off all their favourite characters and start lopping off a few more knobs.
These are the kind off threats they will respond to and this is a man who is not afraid to do it. He's killed off plenty of characters before, he's made enough money already, not to mention he's the kind of guy who tells his biggest fans to go fuck themselves!
These die hard fans need to remember who they are dealing with and exercise a bit of tact. I wouldn't be surprised if he hasn't executed a couple of Danearys already in his raging state. Heaven forbid he gets really pissed and ends up doing a J K Rowling, writing a final scene where all the characters are a decade older just to really spite the hair and makeup team on the film crew.

Arctic and offshore patrol ships
Project summary
The Arctic and Offshore Patrol Ship (AOPS) project involves the delivery of five ice-capable ships, with an option for a sixth, as part of the National Shipbuilding Strategy. The current full life cycle cost estimate for the AOPS project is $9 billion over their planned 25-year operational life.
The AOPS will provide armed, sea-borne surveillance of Canadian waters, including in the Arctic. They will enforce Canadian sovereignty, co-operating with partners within the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) and other government departments when necessary and will provide the government with awareness of activities in Canada's waters.
The AOPS can operate effectively in the Arctic, providing a greater CAF presence in the north, and be able to operate longer between June and October, the time when Arctic waters can be navigated.
They can be deployed for up to 120 days and are capable of operating in first year ice up to one meter thick. The AOPS will allow the Royal Canadian Navy to have unescorted access to areas of the Arctic that were previously inaccessible.

August 2016
Construction of the second Arctic and Offshore Patrol Ship (AOPS), the future HMCS Margaret Brooke, began.
September 2015
Construction of the first AOPS, the future HMCS Harry DeWolf, began. The future fleet of AOPS has been designated the Harry DeWolf-class in honour of Vice-Admiral Harry DeWolf, a Canadian wartime naval hero. Five other ships will complete the AOPS fleet, with four already having received names:
- HMCS Margaret Brooke
- HMCS Max Bernays
- HMCS William Hall
- HMCS Frédérick Rolette
The AOPS project also includes jetty infrastructure in Esquimalt, B.C., Halifax, N.S., and Nanisivik, Nunavut.
January 2015
The Government of Canada announced a $2.6 billion contract (taxes included) to Irving Shipbuilding Inc. to build the AOPS, marking the start of the construction phase under the National Shipbuilding Strategy.

Commitment to Canadian Industry
Industrial and Regional Benefits
Some of the links below lead to websites that are not part of the Government of Canada and may be available in English only.
The build contract with Irving Shipbuilding Inc.,is for six ships. The contract is structured to include significant incentives to keep shipbuilding costs down and deliver six ships within a ceiling price. If costs increase due to unforeseen factors, the contract guarantees the delivery of five ships within that same ceiling price.
If five ships are delivered to the Department of National Defence, the Navy will still have a well-equipped fleet capable of carrying out its missions and operations. However, this could result in reallocating frigate resources to supplement Arctic and Offshore Patrol Ships, as required.

My promise
The fundraiser set sail with a simple goal: For every 500 DKK raised (equivalent of 67 EUR or 75 USD at the time of this writing) I would compose 1 minute of orchestral music.
Listen while reading?
15 years ago my mom adopted a puppy named Nero (pictured), via an animal rescue organization dedicated to saving abused animals.
For years, and even today, you can see that his personality is shaped and molded by the abusive life he had before he came into our family. You couldn't even raise your hand to throw a ball for him, without seeing him cringing his eyes, fearing he was about to get beaten.
When my mother got sick in early 2012, I took care of Nero "temporarily", but eventually I adopted him for good, when she passed away on August 11, the same year - and I came to know Nero even better than I ever had before, and that sparked a motivation for me to make as much of a difference as I possibly could.
That's how my journey into animal welfare started.
The fundraiser ended at the beginning of August, after which I dived into the composing process.
After a week's time, I realized that this particular project could be my shot to finally create something in my mother's memory; Something I had failed to do for the four years up until 2016. With around a week left until August 11, I dedicated all available time to try and finish the track.
The track released - after an intense uphill composing battle - on the morning of August 11. And I had not only fulfilled the promise to the amazing people who donated to the fundraiser, but I was also finally able to dedicate something meaningful to my mom.

text: Several months ago, while I was visiting my dad in Amarillo, TX, we decided to go shooting an indoor range in town. While there, I rented a Smith & Wesson M&P .45 and also purchased a box of Indepencence .45 Auto to shoot through it. I remember thinking that stuff was really loud and had a tremendous amount of recoil. To me, it both sounded and felt almost like I was shooting full power .357 mganum through that thing. At the time I didn't think anything of it because I had been shooting exclusively .22LR for several months and figured I just wasn't used to the recoil of a .45 compared to a .22. However, the other day I read an old thread on another forum where people claimed Independence .45 ACP had more recoil than other brands. it was the same for other calibers too. Does anybody else have experience with this ammo that can chime in?

Surety Bonds
Surety Bonds
Surety bonds provide financial security and construction assurance by assuring project owners that contractors will perform and complete the work specified while also paying their subcontractors, laborers, and material suppliers. A surety bond is a risk transfer mechanism where the surety company assures the project owner that the contractor will perform the contract in accordance with the contract documents. Bonds are issued to contractors who submit the proper information requested in the General Bond Requirements.
Why Get a Surety Bond?
With surety bonds, owners, lenders, taxpayers, contractors, and subcontractors are protected because:
The contractor has undergone a rigorous prequalification process and is judged capable of fulfilling the obligations of the contract.
Contractors are more likely to complete bonded projects than non-bonded projects since the surety company requires personal or corporate indemnity from the contractor.

Raising money for field trips, extracurricular activities, and classroom project can be a huge hassle for parents and teachers. Every year, many schools resort to classic fundraising events such as bake sales, handmade crafts, or peddling items that no one really wants or needs. While these activities can generate some money, relying on them to produce all the funding your class or school actually needs seems to become more challenging each year.
That's why I was intrigued when Keeka reached out to let me know about a new, easier option for school fundraising. It doesn't get more straight-forward than this!
There are 3 ways Keeka makes fundraising easier, simpler, and more fun:
1. You get to sell cute merchandise that people actually want to buy and use.
There are few people who don't need earphones. And we're not talking about your run-of-the-mill, boring earphones here. Keeka's earphones are stylish and unbelievably cute, targeting both young and older buyers.
The audio quality of Keeka earphones probably won't blow you away. However, they're fine for the average kid who loses or breaks earphones frequently and just needs an inexpensive, functional set of earphones. At just $10 a pop, Keeka earphones offer decent value for sure.
2. You don't have to wait for customers' orders to arrive OR wait to get paid.
Keeka's selling system is very straightforward–you have the merchandise up front, and get your hands on the earnings as soon as the items have been sold. Order however many cases you want directly from the Keeka website, and they ship directly to you the next day.
You don't have to worry about sending in or waiting for paperwork to get your profits, and your customers don't have to place orders and wait for weeks for the product to arrive.
Because the logistics are handled up front, students can take ownership of tracking of their own merchandise and gross/net profit without needed to wade through complicated forms and calculations.
3. The packaging makes it easy for students to display, carry, and ultimately sell the product.
Keeka arrives packaged with all the tools you need for selling successfully. For every Keeka tote you buy, you get 20 beautifully-arranged earphones, a card with sales tips, and an instructional sheet for ordering more packages.
Here's the best part–the tote is easy to carry, meaning kids can bring it anywhere they want to sell, AND it converts into an attractive tabletop display instantly so potential customers can see all their options:
I especially like that it doesn't cost much to get started. You can purchase one tote with 20 earphones for $60 –that's $3 for each set of earphones–and then sell them for $10 apiece.
That's a $7 profit per set, meaning kids can earn up to $140 per tote of Keeka earphones sold.
Imagine what $140 could buy for your classroom!
Since Keeka can be used by individual teachers or students (not just entire schools), you can raise money for class projects, makerspaces, and anything else that would enhance kids' learning.
Want to check it out for yourself? Head over to the Keeka website and see if this is a good choice for your school.
Disclosure: Keeka has compensated me via Syndicate Ads for helping to spread the word about their fundraising products. I only review products that I personally have used or would recommend that other educators use.

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2017
Anglo-Saxon England, the ancestors of the Townly surname lived in the settlement of Towneley in the county of Lancashire, or by any clearing in which a farm was situated. The surname Townly thus belongs to both the category of habitation names, which are derived from pre-existing names for towns, villages, parishes, or farmsteads, and class of topographic surnames, which were given to people who resided near physical features such as hills, streams, churches, or types of trees.
Townly Early Origins
Lancashire where they were descended from Spartlingus, the first Dean of Whalley about 896 A.D. Descended was Liwlphus, Cudwlphus, Henricus the great Baron of Whalley. He was followed by Robertus, Geoffrey who married the daughter of Roger de Lacy, Constable of Cheshire in 1193. "An estate in Lancashire, which belonged to this ancient and distinguished family, whose pedigree is said to be traced to the time of King Alfred, and to Spartlingus, first Dean of Whalley, who flourished about the year 896. The line of this personage terminated with an heiress, Cecilia of Towneley, in the XIV. century, who married John del Legh, and conveyed the estate to his family. He died in or about 1330, and his great-grandson resumed the ancient surname of Towneley. John del Legh was a cadet of the great Cheshire family of that name. Towneley Hall is still the seat of this race, who may well challenge comparison in point of venerable antiquity with any family in England." [1]CITATION[CLOSE]

Townly Spelling Variations
Townly Spelling Variations
It is only in the last few hundred years that the English language has been standardized. For that reason, early Anglo-Saxon surnames like Townly are characterized by many spelling variations. As the English language changed and incorporated elements of other European languages, even literate people changed the spelling of their names. The variations of the name Townly include: Townley, Towneley and others.

The Great Migration
The Great Migration
Many English families tired of political and religious strife left Britain for the new colonies in North America. Although the trip itself offered no relief - conditions on the ships were extremely cramped, and many travelers arrived diseased, starving, and destitute - these immigrants believed the opportunities that awaited them were worth the risks. Once in the colonies, many of the families did indeed prosper and, in turn, made significant contributions to the culture and economies of the growing colonies. An inquiry into the early roots of North American families has revealed a number of immigrants bearing the name Townly or a variant listed above:
Townly Settlers in United States in the 17th Century
Townly Settlers in United States in the 19th Century
The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto.
Motto: Tenez le vraye
Motto Translation: Keep or speak the truth.

Shares in the 170-year old holiday business jumped 47pc on Thursday, rising 5.23 to 16.35p, as the company held frantic talks with its banks aimed at securing a short-term refinancing deal before the weekend. An announcement could come as early as today.
Thomas Cook, which is valued at £143m but has debts of £900m, needs another £100m to get through next month when holiday companies' cash-flows traditionally hit their low point for the year. It has already been back to its lenders for an extra £100m loan in October.
Its banks, led by HSBC, Barclays and Unicredit, are broadly supportive, recognising that they would have most to lose by letting the business fail now – when the company has spent cash to secure hotel beds for next year but is yet to receive much cash from customer bookings. They are also wary of the political fallout from pulling the plug on the business.
However, some less exposed banks are reluctant to put in more cash, complicating the talks and potentially forcing the syndicate's leading lenders to pick up the slack.
A deal needs to be done quickly to avoid a vicious circle where concern over Thomas Cook's finances causes customers to stop booking holidays.
Only after the banks have stabilised the business will they consider whether Thomas Cook deserves long-term support – possibly alongside an equity raising or debt-for-equity swap.
Lena Thakkar, an HSBC analyst, said the "banks should agree" but added: "We believe the risk is less concentrated around short-term credit and more around the longer-term future of the business". He said a short-term deal "does not imply longer-term equity value".

Sharia Judges in America?
Article (comment?), by Gary Hunt - [Edited]
It is endless, pretty much everywhere I go, how amazing it is that so few people have the ability to see and discuss the problem behind the curtain (same as Oz).
How is it that the fiction and illusion that over 90% of the people believe to be reality is not what it seems? Why is it that those people just don't comprehend that the fiction and illusion is such a deceptive lie about everything we live and experience today?
Correct me if I am wrong here. Maybe I am the delusional one, but I believe that this is where we are:
We the people ordained and established a constitution for a government for our free and independent states to be included in the union of states in America.
The state is free and independent to the authorization of the people with the only authority to defend and benefit the enumerated rights in the constitution.
The Congress of the united states of America (usA), by an agreement among the states to operate a union according to a constitution that guarantees a Republican form of government that has a very limited authority and some duties, accepts all new free and independent states on equal footing to the union of states as this nation grows.
The Declaration of Independence, which is an extension of the Christian authority of the Magna Carta, is drafted by our nation's founders to stop the tyrannical abuses of the King who is greatly influenced by the money power of the European Bankers with their fraud and fictional money with the deception of the divine right to rule.
We the People in America fought The Revolution and won our independence to create our own union of states with the authority to defend and benefit the free and independent rights of people against tyrannical government rule.
The monied Elitists of Europe never stopped with their war on America and financed BAR Lawyers to take over the seats of government; to hijack the constitutionally defined government in America.
American Patriots of the day knew this and created the original 13th Amendment to lock these BAR Esquires from taking the seats of our government;
But they got a BAR Esquire Abraham Lincoln elected to the Presidency and destroyed the federal Government and Congress and eventually led them into a Civil War and restructured their central government into a private Corporation that looked like our Constitutional government; but it was not.
They assassinated four Presidents of the time who disagreed with the bankers and lawyers and attempted two other assassinations along with numerous other congressmen:
Assassinated presidents:
Attempted assassinated presidents:
With the power and control of these banking elites, they got their Central Bank on Christmas break in 1913 by a grand hoax upon America. They then set about to steal the Gold of America and replace it with debt notes. They controlled everything by money expansion, recessions and depressions until they got a President to change America from a Republic to a Communist Democracy, filled with agencies and an administrative legal system which simply franchised corporate States and local governments.
All of this happened to Americans while they slumbered in the fraud and fiction for over 180 years.
So we lost our Constitutional government system to the franchise corporations of the District of Columbia in the greatest fraud in history and the people of America do not know what has happened to them.
Our nation of states today is bankrupt with the debt money fraud, but you cannot find anyone intelligent enough to explain this, so that we can stand up against this fraud and prosecute the criminals continuing this illusion today.
The truth is that we are electing the frauds into these corporations to perpetuate the fictional illusion. The other truth is that all of these false public officials have to take an oath to the state constitutions because these government service corporations are creatures of the original constitutional state in order to exist in their fraudulent legal system.
I see the remedy as finding enough people to assemble this information into working groups to create writs of complaints to prosecute anyone pretending to be a government official.
Right now they are all violating the oaths taken to preserve and defend the constitutional offices and abide by the true law of the land.
This IS the problem; Let's fix it.

NOT and PROSECUTE
Not what joe?
Everyone should read this!
Read what Raymond, this article?
We the people are presently are having a Bulletless Revolution. This is what this 2016 election for President is all about. Do we the people select the President or is it the elite that select the person we can vote for? This one thing has come to light. The United States is being destroyed by the so called elect. We are no longer a nation of the people or by the people but we are now a nation of the elite/Godless Corporations. We need to repeal the Federal Reserve Banking Act, the 16th Amendment and most of all the 14th Amendment. We need to return power back to the States. We also need to clean out Congress. Now question for all of you how can all of this be done? REVOLUTION REVOLUTION REVOLUTION.
Sorry M9 , TOO MANY THOUGHTS GOING THROUGH THIS HEAD AT THE SAME TIME . It's like scrambled eggs up there sometimes
There's no two ways about it . The entire " government " is fraudulent ; none of them can produce a valid certificate or oath , and they don't want to , need I say fraud . So drag every one you can before a tribunal and prosecute them .
Boy I wish I could remember everything you folks have taught me . Politicians would be flying around like somebody whacked a beehive .
What happened to Sharia?
Where does 'Sharia Judges come into the article? I think the distinction should be made to improve the quality of the article.
Talk to the author Lewis.
This is simply an edit of one of the comments made in Anointing a King. It is not an article in and of itself, so there might be inaccuracies in his reply that do not reflect absolutes as a well written article would. It, rather, is one guy's words for you to see because I thought he made some good points. Do with it what you will.

Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Jesse Lingard will start the Manchester derby for United, while Claudio Bravo and Kelechi Iheanacho are in for City.
Mkhitaryan, a close-season signing from Borussia Dortmund, has shaken off a knock sustained on international duty with Armenia to line-up alongside Lingard and Wayne Rooney behind striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic, with Juan Mata and Anthony Martial dropping to the bench.
As expected, City boss Pep Guardiola hands a debut to Claudio Bravo following the goalkeeper's arrival from Barcelona, while Kelechi Iheanacho is a like-for-like replacement for suspended top scorer Sergio Aguero in attack.
Leroy Sane could also make his City bow after returning to fitness from a hamstring injury to take a place on the bench, although Mkhitaryan's former Dortmund colleague Ilkay Gundogan (knee) must continue his wait to be involved in the Premier League.

To be honest, what ive seen is people have made it even bigger issues than it was (if there was any). Not only Fiat bashers, Sorry to say, even some of our own members who owns one, have contibuted towards it. Issues og lags and things like those, they have been blown out of proportion by people who dont even know what lag is.

Respondents' expected changes to their business over the next 12 months
Respondents were asked to elaborate further where they were planning to update existing equipment and technology. Comments included changes such as upgrading physical equipment (eg. gardening tools, woodworking equipment, printing equipment), increasing the use of teleconferencing, introducing mobile solutions and moving into the digital market, investing in improved computers and point-of-sale equipment, updating computer software and improving website systems and processes.
Respondents could also select 'other' and were asked to provide further details. Other reported business changes included sub-contracting professional expertise, moving from a home business to a shop, re-branding the website, and drawing down on debt owing.
9. Challenges for 2017
Survey respondents were asked what their top three challenges for 2017 will be. The results indicate that the main challenges respondents expected to face will be attracting new customers (13 per cent), increased competition (10 per cent), increased operating costs (9 per cent) and, in a marked rise from 2016, nine per cent expected the current economic climate will be one of their top four challenges.
Respondents' anticipated challenges for their business over the next 12 months
10. Additional comments
Respondents were given the opportunity to comment more generally about their business expectations for the year ahead, with some of the comments outlined below.
"2017 will be affected by a continuation of ongoing stagnation and with minimal growth - both in Australia, and overseas"
"Although I expect the general economy to continue to stagnate (and possibly deteriorate further), my business expectations for my own business are buoyant."
"This year, we hope to find the correct financial advice which can guide us in the right direction to be able to be competitive and achieve and sustain a moderate growth rate"
"I think the last twelve months have been extremely tight but I believe we are over the worst and looking forward to a steady rise in work opportunities and revenue"
"Local Government is continually changes their perception of what is required for new building and upgrades."
"Major concern is for better access to suitable internet and communication services when operating a business in a rural area. Cost is much greater than similar service in metro area, and service is second rate, intermittent access, delayed responses and call outs."
"State payroll tax is impacting our business and we have had to not replace staff as they leave to try and reduce wage costs. Deregulation of trading hours is also looming all the time which will negatively impact our business and definitely cause a downsize to our business."
"We are looking to expand in Australia and internationally plus introduce two new business lines so our biggest challenge is managing the expansion while maintaining a high standard of delivery for existing clients and managing cash flow."

General Motors is recalling 3,690 2013 model-year Chevrolet Malibu sedans because the console transmission gear-selection indicator may not illuminate the shift position selected.
The problem, a violation of federal safety regulations, may cause a driver to unwittingly choose the wrong transmission position and pose a safety threat. The recall affects Malibu sedans manufactured in 2012, from April 10 to Aug. 2, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said.
GM dealers will resolve the issue by replacing the transmission gear selection control module. There will be no charge for this service.
Vehicle owners can reach Chevrolet customer service at (800) 222-1020. GM's number for this recall is 12162.

I finally got a chance to mount the pucks on the truss for the first time. Lots of compliments from other band members on how easily everything goes together. I did a lot of planning for that exact reason. From the van to set up and running in 30 minutes if I get some help carrying things in. And it looks clean, too. I did, unfortunately, discover that when the truss is loaded, it sags slightly. I think the next thing to upgrade is the truss. I'm at least the 3rd owner of the truss and crank stands in the pics. It's seen better days, for sure.
Also, broke out the Torrent F3s on Saturday. We played a wedding dance in the lobby area of an art museum. It's a huge, 3 story space with second and third floor balconies. The band was tucked under an overhang, so I decided it was safe enough to set the torrents on the floor and a case behind the band. It worked out pretty well, except that in this configuration, all of my programming was washing the ceiling instead of the floor. It was nice to have them out of the cases and running though.
One of these days I'll have my girlfriend shoot some live shots with her fancy camera... maybe even video, now that the movers are in the mix.

RENEWABLE ENERGY AND ENERGY CONSERVATION TAX ACT OF 2007 -- (House of Representatives - August 04, 2007)
Ms. BERKLEY. I thank the gentleman for yielding.
Mr. Speaker, I rise today in support of energy independence, national security and weaning ourselves off of Middle Eastern oil.
It is sheer madness that--6 years after Ð9/11--we still rely on unstable and dictatorial regimes like Saudi Arabia to feed our oil habit. They have shown time and time again that they care nothing for international peace, peace in the Middle East or helping us find a solution for the debacle in Iraq: We know they use our oil dollars to fund terrorist organizations like Hamas, and Sunni insurgents in Iraq. And yet we still send them billions of dollars a year in oil revenues, because we are so dependent on their oil to fuel our energy needs.
We are funding both sides of the war on terror. No country on Earth has ever successfully fought a war against itself. This bill is a step in the right direction by funding alternative, clean energies that will set America on the path to energy independence.
With Mr. RANGEL's leadership, my colleagues and I on the Ways and Means Committee have expanded and extended the tax credits for plug-in hybrid vehicles, cellulosic alcohol, ethanol and biodiesel.
This package also promotes alternative fuels by providing assistance for the installation and conversion of E-85 fuel pumps and the production of flex-fuel vehicles that run on renewable fuel. Another provision encourages the domestic development and production of advanced technology vehicles and the next generation of vehicle batteries and plug-in hybrid vehicles.
Our addiction to oil has gone on long enough. It is time we declare independence by harnessing the Sun, wind, geothermal, biomass and other clean renewable technology, so that future generations of Americans won't have to rely on our enemies to satisfy our energy needs.

The language of the stars is the language of the body. Like a star the anorexic burns fuel that isn't replenished; she is held together by her own gravity.
With luminous, lyrical prose, Binary Star is an impassioned account of a young woman struggling with anorexia and her long-distance, alcoholic boyfriend. On a road trip circumnavigating the United States, they stumble onto a book on veganarchism and believe they've found a direction.
Binary Star is an intense, fast-moving saga of two young lovers and the culture that keeps them sick (or at least inundated with quick-fix solutions) and a society that sells diet pills, sleeping pills, magazines that profile celebrities who lose weight or too much weight or put on weight, and books that pimp diet secrets or recipes for success.

Difficult Listen..
MMMMM...Idk....its very tragic...
I think I will remember this whole book for quite some time...
I had to settle into her narration...she speaks very fast...but it fits the story...the main character is very manic...
They should not make a movie of the book...maybe a documentary?
** I was given a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review **
First off I must say this is very poetically written in a sad reaching out for help manner...It is about a very sad girl, who desperately needs help. She is starving herself, and wants others to hurt her...she does not feel worthy of living and she is taking control of her life by being very destructive of herself...She starves herself, takes diet pills, only drinks coffee and redbull...sometimes water.barely eats at all, and when she does she vomits...she rarely sleeps...and her boyfriend is an alcoholic...he tries to help her, but he is very messed up also...I think she may have died at the end...its kind of not specified...I could not listen to this all at once..I could feel this girls grief and had to walk away a few times...very heavy listen...
Thank You, Audiobookblast(dot)com

Binary Star
Binary Star is a book in many ways an unsettling. It is an incredibly important one. Gerard's style pushes the boundaries and, like her characters, constantly seems about to go extreme.

A federal judge on Wednesday ordered the release of John Hinckley Jr., the would-be assassin of President Ronald Reagan.
U.S. District Judge Paul Friedman set Aug. 5 as the date for Hinckley to be released for full-time "convalescent leave." Justifying the decision, the judge wrote that "all of the experts and treatment providers" who testified during the hearing agreed that Hinckley's issues — major depression and psychotic disorder — were "in full and sustained remission and have been for more than twenty years," Fox News reported.
"Mr. Hinckley is clinically ready for full-time convalescent leave," the judge wrote.
Advertisement - story continues below
Hinckley, 61, tried to take the life of the 40th president following an event at the Washington Hilton Hotel on March 30, 1981, only two months after Reagan took office.
After the president exited the hotel and waved to the crowd on a rope line, 25-year-old Hinckley emerged brandishing a gun.
TRENDING: Dem Reads Trump's Tweets Out Loud During Hearing, That's When He Hears from Jeff Sessions
Six shots rang out, hitting D.C. police Officer Thomas Delahanty and Secret Service Agent Timothy McCarthy, and critically wounding press secretary James Brady with a gunshot to the head. All three would survive, but Brady suffered partial paralysis and would be in a wheelchair the rest of his life. When he died in 2014, Brady's death was ruled a homicide, as a result of the injuries he received in 1981.
One of the bullets also hit Reagan, who was rushed to the hospital in critical condition. The bullet struck the 70-year-old's lung and came within one inch of his heart.
Advertisement - story continues below
Reagan wrote about the incident in his diary after being released from the hospital two weeks later and related that he prayed for Hinckley, even as his own life hung in the balance:
Getting shot hurts. Still my fear was growing because no matter how hard I tried to breathe it seemed I was getting less & less air. I focused on that tiled ceiling and prayed.
But I realized I couldn't ask for God's help while at the same time I felt hatred for the mixed up young man who had shot me. Isn't that the meaning of the lost sheep? We are all God's children & therefore equally beloved by him. I began to pray for his soul and that he would find his way back to the fold.
Hinckley was apprehended at the scene and later found not guilty by reason of insanity. He had written of wanting to kill Reagan in order to impress actress Jodie Foster.
In 2003, court authorities began permitting Hinckley to leave Washington's St. Elizabeth's Hospital for day visits with his parents in the area, and in 2006 he began visiting their home in Williamsburg, Va. (three hours drive to the south), for three nights at a time.
The time increased over the years. Since last year, he has been allowed to spend 17 days a month at their home. He will be living with his 90-year-old mother. Hinckley's father died in 2008.
Advertisement - story continues below
NBC News reported that prosecutors argued against granting Hinckley further freedom, indicating he has a history of being deceptive.
The court is requiring him to attend individual and group counseling sessions and placed restrictions on how far he can travel. Court records show that Hinckley has been spending time volunteering at a church and a mental hospital. He would also like to get a full-time job.
He stated he wants to "fit in" and be "a good citizen."

Cures That Can Save You, Can't Save Your Wallet
I was listening to a discussion on the radio today about the cost of expensive drugs, these are not just any type of medical drugs that can relieve simple aliments such as a cold or flu, even a bad migraine.
No these are medical drugs that serve a greater purpose, We're talking about drugs that can cure the most deadliest of diseases that can kill.
This particular story centers around the disease Hepatitis C, this is an infection caused by a virus that attacks the liver leading to inflammation.
Now there is a cure for this disease, but you know what I'm about to say about getting this cure ridding yourself of the inflammatory virus.
It will cost the average person up to a $1,000 per day, for a 12-week treatment session.
That's $84,000 dollars in 3 months people, who could afford to pay such a "whopper bill?"
The answer is…
Not many.
And you see that's the problem, and the medical industry knows about it.
Because the bottom line is this.
The medical industry is no different from any other resource that can be governed and manipulated financially.
What that means is simply this.
Everything in this country dealing with medical resources, has financial systems that monitor money they generate, how this is done is through the internet.
Why do you think pop-up ads just appear out of nowhere when you're doing a search for let's say, car insurance and not ways to get a discount on prescriptions drugs by getting an offer to get a discount card through the mail.
This is because the internet is designed to track your web surf destinations methodically.
Yea that's a dirty underhanded trick to push their products on consumers out there like that, not to mention trying to inadvertently tempt the viewer to opt into their program which my have switching to a provider that carries the prescription medicine that they need.
But that's just an example of how the drug industry works (and other institutions for that matter), if you had done any searching previously online.
That search input from a day ago is still relevant, and if they know you need potent medications for a disease such as Hepatitis C after doing a search on the net yesterday, you can definitely believe by default you will see either banners on your side bar, or mysterious emails popping-up in your inbox telling you to go to this (or) that site for the best discount on Sovaldi (or cheaper generic drugs) which is a drug that cures people with the Hepatitis C virus.
So I'm sure you know there are databases who keep track of this information unbeknownst to you the consumer.
And I know most people would definitely have a problem with others who have access to their medical information, especially when it comes down to what type of medical drugs they buy such as Sovaldi.
I'm convinced this is how they weed out people who can actually afford the drug, this also determines they're eligibility.
The greatest dilemma are those who do not have any type of health insurance coverage, those who are under-insured, those who are on Medicaid, or a government insurance program for anyone who can barely afford basic health insurance coverage.
So basically Sovaldi is for the rich, anyone else who would try to purchase this medication would literally be throwing their money out the window because they will need to buy it for a 3-month period time to rid themselves of the disease.
First Choice Community Healthcare, is a federally qualified health center in Los Lunas, New Mexico, this is a clinic running under the state's Medicaid program giving them access to the Solvaldi pill medication.
Patients who suffer the worse (sickest patients) from the Hepatitis C virus, can obtain the drug through the clinic's medical program. The state's Medicaid program requires a doctor to perform risky liver biopsies on the patient to determine the severity of their condition. Once the patient is diagnosed in the late-stages of liver disease, they will be eligible for coverage.
Despite this process, most patients are turned away even if they possess written appeals and filing pre-authorizations stating for them to receive treatment and medication.
For the doctor who faces a serious disposition will have to explain to the patient about their present condition, this comes after they have examined to the patient (examination procedures may vary).
The doctor will reveal the prognosis to the patient (such as finding a lump on the body), and will not be able to begin treatment procedures until the patient's condition progresses to its final stage.
In some cases patients are forced to take urine drug screens (they check them to see if they drug-free and non-alcoholics) to prove that they are legit, and can be considered to undergo the treatment process.
This seems like a lot of B.S. to me, I'm mean they know people need to have certain medical drugs and treatment that can save their lives. but it seems to come down to one obvious factor that comes between being cured or dying if they don't receive this medical life-saving drug Sovaldi.
What it all comes down to is money.
Money decides it all, especially when it comes to medical drugs and prescriptions.
And who benefits from all of this are the greedy, money hungry drug makers of these products (one example is the head of Turing pharmaceuticals Martin Shkreli who raised the cost of the anti-parasite drug Daraprim to $750 per tablet), who are just looking to make a fast buck on their path to getting rich even though they know people are dying trying and waiting to get their product.
And to give you an ideal of Sovaldi's value in comparison to other ridiculously expensive drugs such as Solirism for instance a drug that treats a rare blood disease will run you up to $700,000 to this particular pharmaceutical drug.
It's a dam shame, for a doctor to tell their patients they cannot receive the medication needed due to the fact that their medical plan does not cover the cost of the medication they need.

Help me stop noncritical regisry archiving ?
This is my first post on your forums *using Win 7-home prem 64 bit*
[If you wish to see the baseline question see the last sentence]
Because I have sought (and mostly succeeded) in keeping a very regimented OS, the pursuit of options has often let me to this forum. Now I have a question specific enough that I am not finding where the issue has been addressed already.
[Else it is getting lost in a sea of loosely related search results]
I made a good earnest attempt a few weeks back to really, really go through
my system registry to locate and stomp out old and irrelevant references.
As expected, I am going to be told at least once to 'be careful' doing this.
[Perhaps I should keep count of the actual 'be careful's I get for amusement?]
Not to worry, once I was into if far and long enough to realized (according to
my actual use of the system) how very very many useless references are
kept in the registry, the sheer number of it all convinced me a system restore
might save me entire days of nit-picking... so I stopped my search & eliminate
---- Here is what I hope to achieve. ----
I do not have my IE to keep history of sites viewed or downloads performed.
I want to have Win7 do the same except with applications executed
and probably other things in addition to downloads that I really do not wish
it to keep track or.
I do not have any password saving or automatic suggestions (typing in fields)
enabled and a great many other things that I believe relay on some manner of
archiving. I use installation monitoring so that I can 99.999% uninstall without
need of extensive OS archiving. I'm fairly confident that I have things set up
so that I can begin keeping my registry clutter free (and I am very prepared
for keeping system backups in case I am wrong). Now- how do I stop Win7
keeping so many freaking historical and impractical entries in the registry?
|My System Specs
|30 Apr 2012
Moderators, is there a better category to have asked this? I intend to do 100% system restore and was hoping to incorporate what I would learn here as part of the new setup. Maybe there is not a known way to do what I am asking?
[I believe that someone out there has also noticed all the excessive registry entries and of those probably some]
[of them were educated enough to have made a solution for the madness]
|My System Specs
|07 May 2012
Well, the shortage of advise is pretty depressing considering I had thought this forum to be brimming with win7 gurus that had skills and methods I could never hope to match... what better a place to go to for help when I need a professional guideline for this stuff. I had hoped for a way to 'write protect' registry locations and then a listing of
what locations are used for what kind of information.. then just 'lock down' the locations that are used for junk.
In the off chance that someone else out there is looking for a similar solution and is equally getting tired of finding
forum inquiries that have no answer/solution for the question. I will make my final resolution available and then cease to check on this forum for guidance on my quest.
Download a program called Driver Max- it is freeware.
You will have to supply them with an email + quick registration upon install- so far it has been very worth it.
Use DriverMax to make a backup of the drivers on the system.
This is for those that for one reason of another cannot use a proper driver installation cd
(EeePC stopped supplying them and I deleted the special partition)
IF you don't have a cd drive or need to use an ISO for the system restore, use a program called UnetBootin.
It does require a USB drive (size?> 8gig was far more than sufficient) no matter what install method you use.
Be sure to read the instructions that are available before you go and wipe your system.
This will require total use of the USB flash drive, so clear out the USB for best results.
There are placed to secure/download Win7 ISO, however all probably require authentication.
I won't help there, it is forbidden and I won't share my LEGIT authentication serial#.
Be sure to keep your driverbackups from DriverMax kept safe somewhere other than on the computer you
are going to restore!
Also have all your files that you want returned copied and safe somewhere other than the computer 2b
restored !
There is a freeware program I have not yet used that says it will totally copy all your data to an external source and will allow you to selectively port your data back into use from the backup file. I am going to use it soon myself, however since I am now going to stop watching this forum for responces, I am making a link to it here/now.
Download DriveImage XML. dixmlsetup.exe
This way you can make estra sure when you are setting back up that IF something was missed form being coppied, you can still go back and get it (or be at peace with the second guessing before wiping your system).
Now, use all this stuff appropriately, follow the program instructions, and your legit win7 ISO + authentications.
Fresh system! Reapply your drivers and file backups. Install your programs using a free software that monitors installations for a nearly perfect uninstall every time "advanced uninstaller free":
Software Free Download - Soft32
The downside is monitored installations are very lengthy! it copies your registry and harddrive before and after the install, then checks and records the differences! quite thorough! good news is the uninstall itself, should you uninstall a program you monitored, is very quick!
When you have everything installed and configured to a point your system can stay the way you are going to want it... make a system back up and also a registry back up. My solution at long last to stop the unnecissary archiving is to regularly 'reinstate' the registry back up of a system that is pretty much exactly configured the way it needs to stay without a lot of activity that the system is keeping record of. After a few downloads and a few uninstalls, the registry is going to have a few unnecessary entries- go ahead an eliminate them by 'reinstating' the registry backup. IF you want to make big changes- do a reinstatement of the registry, make the changes, and them make a new registry backup that contains the changes you wish to keep in effect for long term and us the new backup for overwriting and eliminating the bloated registry you will being to accumulate shortly. I should hope there is an easier way- however the suggestions are not forthcoming... am I working offline or something guys?
To any I might have helped- do something helpful for someone that deserves it ok?

Windows 7 Home Premium SP1, 64-bit
I'm wondering why you feel the need to "locate and stomp out old and irrelevant references" in the registry. Even assuming it is 100% safe, why would you bother?
I can't recall the last time I heard anything good about Driver Max.
There are several good imaging programs out there. DriveImage XML might be one of them.
