Daily briefs of the top news stories impacting Christians around the world.
In today's edition:
- Ted Stone, 72, Dies in Midst of 4th 'Walk across America'
- Evangelical Leader Ted Engstrom Dies at 90
- Warren Challenges South Korean Churches for a Third Wave of Revival
- Death Toll from Indonesia Tsunami Surpasses 300
Ted Stone, 72, Dies in Midst of 4th 'Walk across America'
Evangelist Ted Stone died of undetermined causes July 16 at the end of the fourth week of his fourth "Walk across America" to spread awareness of the hope that substance abusers can find in Christ. He was 72. Baptist Press reports that Stone, from Durham, N.C., spent 29 years proclaiming freedom in Christ through the grace of God after serving four years in prison in the 1970s as the result of drug addictions. The founder of Ted Stone Ministries, he often repeated the mantra, "I used to be a drug addict, but I am no longer a drug addict. I am recovered forever by the grace of God, and that same hope can belong to you or anyone you love." Though a battle with colon cancer in 2002 took a toll on his body, Stone so fervently believed in the cause of ministering to substance abusers that he pressed on to start a fourth walk across the nation, starting in Chicago June 19 with an expected end in Pensacola, Fla. "Most programs use something to substitute for the abuser's addiction," Stone said before the trip. "Some even refer to a higher power. But my message is that by putting your dependence on the Lord Jesus Christ, you can break your dependence on chemical substances." Stone and his ministry partner, collegian Sean Reece, were driving to speak at the evening service at College Heights Baptist Church in Gallatin, Tenn., just north of Nashville, July 16 when Stone became unconscious and later was pronounced dead.
Evangelical Leader Ted Engstrom Dies at 90
World Vision International reports that its former president, Ted Engstrom, died July 14 at his home in southern California at the age of 90. According to AgapePress, World Vision U.S. president Richard Stearns says, "The evangelical community has lost one of its most influential leaders of the past 50 years." Engstrom also was a past president of Youth for Christ and authored more than 50 books. He was a close friend of Billy Graham and James Dobson and served on the boards of Focus on the Family, the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability, and his alma mater, Taylor University. Stearns says Engstrom's "tireless walk" among the world's poorest children during more than 20 years with World Vision will now be an eternal and "effortless stroll alongside his Savior." In eulogizing Engstrom, Dobson refers to the former Focus board member as a friend, mentor, and brother. "This is an enormous loss for the cause of evangelical Christianity and for the thousands of men and women whose lives were made better by Ted's love, compassion, and faith," says Dobson. And in serving the pro-family ministry, Dobson recalls that Engstrom "could always be counted on to offer insight, inspiration, humor, and an understanding of the heart of God whenever we most needed it."
Warren Challenges South Korean Churches for a Third Wave of Revival
Dr. Rick Warren visited South Korea this week and challenged churches of all denominations to work and pray for a third wave of revival across the Korean peninsula. "I love the people of Korea," Dr. Warren said at a packed press conference upon arrival in Seoul, approximately one-third of the way through a 35-day tour of 13 countries in Asia and Africa. "It is my prayer that the events of the next few days will bring revival to this great country." Beyond revival, Dr. Warren emphasized there were four additional reasons for his visit: First, he said he wanted to learn from Korean churches; second, he wanted to encourage Korean churches of all denominations to work together; third, he wanted to encourage business and government leaders to value and cooperate with the church in solving humanitarian issues; finally, he stressed he came to bring the Good News of the Gospel that can bring new life for people of all religions.
Death Toll from Indonesia Tsunami Surpasses 300
In the wake of the second tsunami to hit Indonesia in as many years, well over 300 people were killed and more than 160 others have been declared missing, The Christian Post reports. "I don't mind losing any of my property, but please God return my son," said Basril, a local villager on Java island's southern coast, where the water reached 300 yards inland. The death toll rose to at least 327, and it was expected to go higher. "We are still finding many bodies. Many are stuck in the ruins of the houses," said local police chief Syamsuddin Janieb. At least 23,000 people fled their homes, either because they were destroyed or in fear of another tsunami.

The Impact of War on Children : A Review of Progress Since the 1996 United Nations Report on the Impact of Armed Conflict on Children Paperback
by Graca Machel
Graca Machel, UNICEF's special rapporteur, also scrutinises sexual crimes in time of war, the fate of orphans, the disproportionate suffering of children endure in civil wars, and their special vulnerability to such side-effects of conflict as famine, disease and social fragmentation. "The Impact of War on Children" is an urgent call to action-for the commitment and tenacity needed to protect children from the atrocities of war.
Children present a uniquely compelling motivation for mobilisation, and an opportunity to confront the problems that cause their suffering.
This book is complemented by 16 evocative photographs by Sebastiao Salgado, a documentary photographer of world renown, covering Afghanistan, Iraq, Palestine, Rwanda and elsewhere.

In short this is an issue with the current gripper in stage, when it grips something it results in a duplicate of that model appearing in the world as the gripped object is both a child of the world and a child of the gripper.
My testing was done using playerv and everything.cfg, when the gripper is closed an additional model appears very near the origin of the map. This is because the gripper sets the relative pose of the model to (0,0,z-value,0), and it is still a child of the world so it is rendered at that position. This is obviously a reasonably bad error as we have suddenly duplicated the model. (The one at the origin is draggable as well and moving it will move the one within the gripper with respect to the gripper)
This issue arises as hit->SetParent(this) doesn't remove "hit" from the list of the children of the world. In this was SetParent and BecomeParentOf are very different:
int Model::SetParent( Model* newparent)
// remove the model from its old parent (if it has one)
if( parent )
EraseAll( this, parent->children );
if( newparent )
newparent->children.push_back( this );
// link from the model to its new parent
this->parent = newparent;
CallCallbacks\( CB\_PARENT \);
return 0; //ok
void Model::BecomeParentOf( Model* child )
if( child->parent )
child->parent->RemoveChild( child );
world->RemoveChild( child );
child->parent = this;
this->AddChild( child );
world->dirty = true;
Logically to me these two functions should do the same things (and one should really just call the other with child and parent swapped) however BecomeParentOf will remove the child from the world and set the world as dirty, but not call the callbacks function. There is additional different in the use of AddChild and RemoveChild rather than simply removing or adding the children, and so performing additional things (one of these additional things is very annoying, AddChild changes the token name of the model added to parent.model.x even if the token for that model was specified in the world file)
As a workaround to this for the gripper driver to stop the additional model from appearing when you pick it up adding the command "this->world->RemoveChild(hit);" before "hit->SetParent( this );" (line 457) will stop the model from appearing, and adding "this->world->AddModel(cfg.gripped);" after "cfg.gripped->SetParent( NULL );" (Line 265) will make it reappear - sorry for the lack of diff but I was actually working and testing this on a highly modified gripper like plugin model.
This seems like rather a hack given that the functions I am adding are RemoveChild and AddModel, not RemoveChild and AddChild. However in the WorldGui these are the two functions that call canvas->AddModel and canvas->RemoveModel so they need to be paired in this way I think.
I'm not sure what the fix for this should be (and so haven't actually submitted a patch) however it seems like BecomeParentOf and SetParent should either not both exist, or one should call the other (or if they are to have different functionality it should be commented). And the adding and removal from the world should be handled by that function.

ML vs UBS vs Smith Barney
13 RepliesJump to last post
For those of you have left from or moved to one of these firms in the last few years and those thinking of leaving ML soon for UBS or Smith Barney, I would appreciate your thoughts on the relative postives and negatives of UBS and Smith Barney relative to ML and to each other. I'd particularly be interested to hear your opinions on comparisons of these firms' platforms, technology (reporting, desktop, financial planning, etc), quality of FAs/management(branch and divisional), culture, focus and future direction. We are about a $1.5 million team in the NY area mostly annuitized with sophisticated clients. Thanks.
I can't speak for UBS or Smith Barney. My firm is currently retained by a prestigious, global organization who is in the market for advisor teams like yourself. I am with an Executive Search Firm, Butterfass, Pepe and Macallan and would welcome the opportunity to discuss this with you. Please call me @ 201 560 9500 (ask for Angelo) if you are interested.
Best of luck!!!
BPM- Don't waste everybodies time! You should have sent a message instead of advertising on this site. Get lost you SCUM BAG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can cover UBS for you so ask away.
I think the biggest unique value proposition for us is still being the worlds largest wealth manager (close to 3 trillion if you include asset management). As well as not having an interest in owning or buying a US commercial bank.
UBS of course had major Sub-Prime issues but we raised capital early and the the Swiss version of the TARP will allow the firm to actually profit on assets they will be selling to the SNB (Swiss National bank aka Swiss Fed) at end of 4th qtr UBS will have zero US mortgage exposure and one of the highest tier 1 ratios.
From a technology standpoint the firm has invested a lot over last 2 years on re-designing many systems but probably still has more to go.
Many Adviors believe we have the best MF wrap platform (PACE), SMA's are on par with most other major's. UMA is getting some nice attention.
New comp plan (especially for teams) is a big pay raise for most advisors (Avg of 8-10% for FA's in my office). Also new relationship pricing next year will cut down on account fees (1mm+ households no fees or if account on direct deposit no fees).
What firm are you at? i was at Morgan for over 10 years and UBS for past 3.
Currently we are ML and are between UBS and Smith Barney, if we decide to move.
I've worked at a couple of wirehouses and am currently with ML, with a TT of about 500K............In the end, I find them to be all the same........Each firm gives the you the whole song and dance about having the best platform, but their minor pros and cons generally balance each other out, in my opinion.
For transactional accounts......research, entering trades, payouts, commissions, bond inventory is gonna be the same.
For managed money, they all have access to similar (if not identical managers).........their quarterly reports are comparable.....as are the overall platforms.
I strongly feel that anyone who tells you one is better/worse than another has an agenda......either to promote one or bash one.........
You can develop a better relationship with one branch manager than another, but again, that could be the case at any firm........I've gotten along better and have had more respect for managers who used to be FA's (even if they lie about how successful they were) than with those who have clearly never been in the trenches.........
If I were to recommend one over the other, it would have little to do with the firm.....and more with the package Dollars, Support (bringing your own assistant, or being assigned one (make sure you get someone registered), equal or easier commute to the office......when they start talking about having a better platform, it's all BS..........
BPM (recruiter) You are such a whore. Get on the phone, make the cold calls. Nobody worth a nickel will give you the time of day here. But, many will respect a courteous call. I know and have worked with a good recruiter. Tell me, how many years were you in this business before you starting recruiting into it?? The best recruiters I've come to know and the one I worked with was an FA 20+ and a manager for 10+. He knows what the heck he's talking about, who he's talking about and won't waste an FAs time.
SFEZ- has a good point, a big part of your success comes with a good branch manager who knows how to run a branch. The Platforms all have + / -. A good BOM who will partner with you and make a coachin impact for you and your time is priceless.
I would recomend before joining a branch make some random calls in to his top producers and have some candid conversations with them on how they run the branch and what the culture is like.
If your going to sign a 9 year note it better be in an environment your going to want to be in for a long time!
I left UBS last year and can assure you they don't have "the best MF wrap program". It is a good deal for UBS and the advisor. They don't use institutional class shares, the 12b-1s are not credited to the client and to get into Pace the fund companies pay for the shelf space. ML's technology is better. I turned down an all stock offer to go to Smith Barney as an Assistant Manager -that would have been a disaster! Anyway, why not go independent?
I'm looking at UBS too after 20+ years with ML. I do think a lot of these companies have equalized over the years. However, can you really get over SB & MS might have major changes going forward? ML technology is currently better. They've got some nice features. Question is where is $7 billion in savings coming from? Many say technology. And with ML representing only 13% of BofA's business, they might not care as much to keep it updated. Here's what mattered to me in priority order when I put pen to paper (will not be your priorities).
-What % is wealth mngt business of parent company
-Office culture (bigger offices this might not matter as much)
-Is bad news out and settled?
-Branch Mngt
-How much production per assistant ratio?
-Regional Mngt
-Is brand positive?
Having said this, I can understand one FA going from ML to UBS in one region and vice versa in another. It doesn't mean one got it wrong!
One thing I think is very important. Do not go for the $$. I knew when my wife decided we would refinish the frickin' hardwood floors with some the money, we were going for reasons other than the cash. This made me feel like I was looking for the right reasons.
By now you know I'm not a recruiter for UBS but I do have a question. Out of all the major wirehouses isn't true only UBS can say: bad news is out, you know who will own us, and you know what the parent company has up its sleeve?
The premise of the question is flawed, in my opinion.
However, I have another question: who was a better person, Stalin, Hitler or Pol Pot?
I left UBS last year and can assure you they don't have "the best MF wrap program". It is a good deal for UBS and the advisor. They don't use institutional class shares, the 12b-1s are not credited to the client and to get into Pace the fund companies pay for the shelf space. ML's technology is better. I turned down an all stock offer to go to Smith Barney as an Assistant Manager -that would have been a disaster! Anyway, why not go independent?
Wired - Things have changed - There is now an ability to you institutional / managed money share classes in PACE.
Also over 50k you can use a UBS managed mutual fund platform, where 12b-1's are credited back to the client.
Things couldn't have changed all that long ago since I have been gone less than a year. I am glad they did change! I really did like PACE and the biggest flaw I found was the limited access to institutional pricing. Now UBS will be a little hard to compete against.

A tiny parcel of 0.18 hectares of which only two barrels were made. A wine of typical Nuits power and minerality but sophisticated too.
A fine cut diamond. Tense and profound with gripping red and black forest berry and cherry fruits, crisp fresh and ripe with a gentle and
appealing austrere side to it.
Contains Sulphites.
Founded in 1825, Domaine Faiveley has seen its fair share of vintages. Based in the Côte de Nuits, this family run domaine has over time, progressed and expanded to such a point that it now owns vines in some of the finest terroirs in Burgundy, including Gevrey-Chambertin, Volnay, and Puligny-Montrachet. The vineyard holdings are often small averaging at 1 hectare; therefore production sizes are extremely limited. Yet the domaine commands more than 10 hectares of Grand Crus, including the entirely Faiveley owned Corton Clos des Cortons Faiveley Grand Cru. Maturation takes place in oak barrels from coopers have been rigorously selected for their fine grain and light toast. For red wines a third new oak is used for the Premiers Crus and two thirds for the Grands Crus. Remaining a family run domaine, it was François Faiveley who introduced more modern techniques of sorting and fermentation. Now, he has passed this on to his son, Erwan Faiveley, who took over the domaine in 2007 and has set about fine-tuning the winemaking process to make a more gentle, elegant style of Burgundy. The red premiers crus are aged. Wine produced under the Joseph Faiveley label are a product of fruit sourced by the negociant arm of the business, in many cases, from some of the top vineyards in Burgundy. The Faiveley family also own Domaine de la Framboisiere in Mercurey from which they had bought fruit from since 1933. After working together for four generations they bought the Domaine in 2011.
A town in the northern part of the Côte d'Or that gave its name to the Côte de Nuits. Sitting on the southern edge of the Côte de Nuits, the town is the mini commercial hub of this part of the Côte d'Or, though much less significantly so than the Côte d'Or's capital, Beaune. Many négociants are based here and the town, like Beaune, also runs its own charity auction, the Hospices de Nuits, but on a much smaller scale.The appellation Nuits-St-Georges lies both sides of the town, incorporating the vineyards of neighbouring Prémeaux-Prissey to the south. Typically Nuits-St-Georges are powerful, mineral, muscular and long-lived wines, however there is a distinct, widely accepted difference between the wines on the south side and those further north adjoinging Vosne-Romanée where the wines are silkier and more elegant, rather like those of its neighbour. There is more clay in the soil of the Prémeaux vineyards, making wines of less finesse and more prominent tannins. Nuits boasts 27 Premier Cru vineyards but no Grands Crus, perhaps because at the time of the classifications in 1930 the town's leading vigneron, Henri Gouges, who was tasked to help classify the vineyards, was too concerned of being seen to favour vineyards in which he owned parcels. However, if the crown was to go to one Les St-Georges, on the south side of Nuits, would be it. Also particularly fine in the southern Nuits-St-Georges sector are Les Cailles and Les Vaucrains, both adjacent to Les St-Georges, while Aux Murgers and Aux Boudots on the Vosne-Romanée side and Les Argillières, Clos l'Arlot, and Clos de la Maréchale in Prémeaux can make great wine. Small quantities of very rare white wine are made, too, from the Chardonnay grape, as in the Clos l'Arlot, and also from the Pinot Blanc grape in Gouges' Premier Cru Les Perrières. The town is home to a surprisingly small handful of well-reputed producers, namely Henri Gouges, Robert Chevillon, Domaine de l'Arlot, Patrice Rion, and Chauvenet, whilst there are many growers in neighbouring Vosne-Romanée who make outstanding examples of Nuits St Georges., and in Chambolle-Musigny, Freddy Mugnier is responsible for the great revival in fortunes of the spectacular Clos de la Maréchale vineyard.

Key Point
The English High Court has decided that single ship SPVs with registered offices in Cyprus had their COMI in England.
The Facts
Administrators were appointed to eight companies. Six of those companies were special purpose vehicles (SPVs) that had a single asset - a ship. The other two companies were the immediate and ultimate parent of the SPVs. All eight companies were incorporated in Cyprus and shared a common registered office there. Marine Cross a company based in London was shipping agent for all the companies.
The Court decided that the COMI of each of the eight companies was in England. That was where each set of creditors of each company would have considered the relevant company to be based particularly given the involvement of Marine Cross with which most creditors dealt.
The decision is good news for companies, lenders and other creditors wishing to avail themselves of English insolvency processes. The importance of objective factors ascertainable by third parties dealing with the company was stressed. Here a critical factor was that the shipping agent Marine Cross in London both made and received payments relating to the shipping business on behalf of the companies. Any of the eight companies creditors' queries were ultimately dealt with in London by the agent who was also named as the contact for the companies in the English Law governed loan agreements entered into by the companies with their syndicate of banks.

After seeing that, I figured he could potentially get an ATP rank in the top 1000 or so, but then I saw that he has been playing open events and although he has won some, there are guys that have beaten him. This seems to kind of disprove the "Divisions don't matter in tennis" theory everyone postulates. If someone had that kind of success in D1 they would definitely be legit pros.

New Delhi, Nov 6: Writer and activist for Dalit rights Kancha Ilaiah on Friday attacked Prime Minister Narendra Modi for allegedly not working towards promotion of the backward castes in the country.
"The question is what is he doing for the backward classes," Ilaiah said at an event here organised by Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Contemporary Studies, New Delhi, ahead of the 125th birth anniversary of Jawaharlal Nehru.
Claiming that Modi was engaged in only working for the welfare of the upper castes, Ilaiah said, "I thought once there is a OBC Prime Minister by declaration he will create OBC capitalists but what is he doing?"
"The present Prime Minister before he became the Prime Minster had said that if Sardar Vallabhai Patel would have been the first PM then India would have been different," Ilaiah said.
"I would say that but for Nehru being the first Prime Minister BR Ambedkar would not be allowed to write the first Constitution," the 63-year-old scholar said. "Ambedkar and Nehru's contribution to the nation has been to increase the span of life," he said.
The social scientist, who has authored a book on buffalo nationalism, said the RSS and the BJP wanted to protect the cow because of its association with the Aryans despite buffaloes producing more milk.
"The problem of inequality is even among animals. Buffalo produces 75 per cent of milk but Indian cow hardly gives 60 percent of milk but now cow is being protected and largest number of buffaloes are being killed in Gujarat and Maharashtra. Why?" he said.
He also attacked Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley for not visiting the family of the person who was lynched to death in Dadri in Greater Noida. "When dalits were burnt alive in Haryana Jaitley did not go to Haryana ...but he preaches to the whole world of academicians including economists what is equality," Ilaiah said.
He also appealed to all political parties to not just work for votes but strive to establish equality in society.
Congress leader and former Union Minister Sachin Pilot, who moderated the discussion, said people of the country should strive to put the country first before all politics about food. "Elections come and go, it is not a big deal, but this country is much bigger than just one leader, one party or one ideology. And we have to adopt this principle," Pilot said.
Rajya Sabha member Prof Balachandra Mungekar, who is an economist by training, said,".. Nehru refused to make any compromise on freedom of the permanent human value" while adding that "unrestricted freedom would lead to anarchy."
Calling for freedom to be met with equality, Mungekar said, "Religion is the requirement of an individual. Religion has always created havoc in the society and precisely and unfortunately this what we are facing today."
Talking about gender inequality in the country, Vrinda Grover, Supreme Court lawyer said there was "selective silence" on economic and social subjugation of women.

How much time do you guys spend on flight trimming your planes?
I'm to the point that I'm considering selling my 40 sized Utter Kaos and starting from scratch.
I purchased this plane for $30 bucks off Craigslist and thought is was a good deal at the time, but after having the engine out for the 4th time to sand the back of the motor mount to get it back to zero degrees downthrust and fixing the other issues, I starting to wonder if I should call it a lost cause, at least for this plane, for practicing the Classic pattern manuvers.
I never knew about flight trimming until I got back into the hobby. What we call Classic Pattern was in full swing when I left the hobby, so this time I around I want to learn how to fly those manuevers.
This Chaos was already covered with monokote when I got it. But when I started to setup it up with gear I found the ailerons where binding, the horizontal and vertical stabs were tilted about 5 degrees from straight, had 1.5 degrees of postive incidence, and the firewall had more than 4 dregrees of down thrust.
Fixed most issues but it seems like I can't even finsh the process for flight trimming, at least from the charts I using.
For those who have had experience flight trimming should I spend any more time on this plane?
I suppose my Chaos is not typical but from reading threads on this topic I heard that many of you spend alot of time trimming your planes even when built right. Some input on this particular subject would be great.
The plane is flying way better, 100% better each time I clear up an issue but I'm worried that it may have been thrown together, I aready have 50+ flights on, and I'm enjoying flying it, but it's still not ready to even start practicing any manuevers.
Should I keep at it?
Thanks in advance for all input.
It is very worthwhile and , for a decent flying classic pattern plane, essential, to spend the time to trim it properly. How long that takes depends on the build, the design and how straight it is. It's very difficult, if not impossible, to trim a plane that isn't straight. If you can make it straight, keep at it , if not move on to another airframe. Be sure all hinge gaps are sealed.
Once you have flown a well trimmed honest airplane like a Kaos, you will never be satisfied with an untrimmed plane again.
I have had several Kaos versions, all great fliers. I looked at the easiest plans to find in my shop ( a Killer Kaos and very similar to your Utter Kaos) and saw that it called for 2 degrees downthrust. I think most of mine had that and maybe 1 degree of right, so you may have removed too much.
The National Society of Radio Controlled Aerobatics has a well known trim chart on their site. It is the second one simply called "trimming chart".
Here's a link, it gives lots of good nuts and bolts info on trimming. I'd recommend you use it. Be sure to change only one thing at a time then fly to see the result. Each change may have an impact on earlier trim, but with practice you will get there. Good luck!
I looked at those Killer Kaos plans more carefully. The Killer and Utter are so similar that they are hard to tell apart visually, some say it is just a name change to change kit manufacturers. The plans call for 2 degrees downthrust as I said. No right thrust, but I ended up adding 1 degree right to make vertical up lines need fewer corrections. The wing incidence calls for 1/2 degree positive. If you can get the tail alignment issues straightened out and these values for thrust and incidence, you should have a good start. At this point perfect knife edge trim is good but isn't critical because you wouldn't use it much in sportsman or intermediate. If you can get the cg right, tip weight and incidences you should be able to begin practicing manuevers. Aileron differential can come later and finally knife edge as you learn more manuevers.
Thanks for link and the encouragement Immelman,
I tried to answer earlier but needed to reinstall Microcraps IE8 web browser as I could not download the trimming files from the NSRCA website. I read the chart completely and will be adding it to the collection of trim charts that I take with me to the field.
I was gettin a little irritated that someone could do such a bad job at building this plane that I wanted some feedback from others who have done the trimming process to weigh out whether to continue or not.
The plane is flying well, but I have nothing to compare it too as this is the first plane I have ever trimmed. I posted at the other site and got alot of great info there as well that I decided to try and fix as much as possible so that on the next plane i will definitly have something to compare too.
One person mentioned that the education that i'm getting from this plane is priceless. Very good point.
Funny that you mentioned the Killer Kaos as I had the 60 kit then in a moment of stupidity sold it on ebay. A few weeks later I saw a guy burning holes thru the sky with one at the field and regretted selling it. I did trace all the cut parts and scanned the plan just in case so at least I can scratch build one if I want.
I took a little more incidence out of it today and have reduced the downthrust a little more. Hope to test fly it this week to see if I'm heading in the right direction.
You are very welcome. That's what these forums are for! Your descriptions on the other site do sound like an original Kaos. Everything said still applies and I strongly agree with everything said over there except the not using expo and stopping trimming, etc. Scott's trim sheet is the same thing I linked you to. Almost any test for incidence , thrust line etc is described well on it. It is kind of the standard classic pattern trim sheet. The comments about flying straight lines are dead on. Try this sometime, stand a long ways off one end of the runway and watch people fly. They almost all will fly a curved line , slightly further out as they pass themselves. Many will also fly past themselves with the plane banked slightly toward themselves . They are looking at their wings to try to make them level but the upward angle fools them. It is a very revealing thing when you are trying to develop precision in your manuevers. A loop begun at runway center will frequently corkscrew in a little for new pattern fliers for that reason ( assuming no cross wind). That's one good reason to check loop trim out looking from behind rather than the side. It is far easier to make wings truly level from that angle. If you don't enter perfectly wings level, the results will mislead you in the trimming process.
I really do think that trimming this one as best you can will give you a real leg up on one you build yourself. It sure emphasizes the need for accurate straight building. As 8178 says, to really get a straight airframe you have to do it yourself. I can build them straight and light but nowhere near as pretty as a master builder like 8178 can! He just amazes me with his build logs.
Good luck, Chuck

On Tuesday I had an appointment with my care coordinator that didn't go very well. I explained I'd been having suicidal thoughts and was having a tough time, but this period had been going on for about 3 or 4 weeks and didn't show any sign of letting up. To be honest, I'd hit a slump after trying to take my own life on my birthday (in August) and which my cc has since told me was an extremely serious attempt (well the plan wasn't to be here so I wasn't exactly playing at it!!)
All I wanted was to be left alone. I know how I work, I go very insular and once I've dealt with things in my own way, I come out ready to face the world again. I explained this to my cc and that I'd be in touch when I was ready for an appointment next week.
Not an hour had passed after she left when I got a voicemail from her to say my psychiatrist wanted to see me on Thursday (yesterday) in clinic. I'll admit that I wasn't 100% sure I was going to go but was worried that they'd come round to my place and that would be 100 times worse and so I decided I'd show I was making an effort and go along.
I was with my psychiatrist and my cc for well over an hour. We discussed my meds, my lack of sleep and how that was having such a negative impact on things, my suicidal thoughts and any plans I had. After all this she said she thinks that I need to go on the ward as they can keep me safe and sort meds out so hopefully my lack of sleep never reaches these proportions again.
I obviously refused. My experience of a ward isn't good at all and I really struggle and to be honest I'd take not sleeping any day of the week over being in there. And the came the magic words, "you can come in informally or I'll request a mental health act assessment and we will detain you, it's your choice". Well no, actually, there's no choice there at all!! When I said this, they said that they believe that choice needed to be taken away from me as I wasn't seeing things properly at the moment and couldn't see this was for the best.
So backed in to a corner, I agreed to go in as an informal patient as I wanted to try and keep both my psychiatrist and cc on side in some small way. And so here I am, sat on my bed (at least it's in a private room), writing this post and not wanting to be here and here are a couple of reasons why:
1) It's a mixed ward. Whilst there is a female only area, in order to get to the meds room, dining room, nurses station or lounge, I have to walk through the male section. I'm terrified, just thinking about it panics me so much and there is nothing I can do about it!
2) I have ptsd. I'm jumpy. There are so many noises and voices all the time, never mind when the alarm goes off for a difficult patient (talking of which, off it goes right now). I can't settle, my brain won't switch off. This is all the more apparent that even after a strong sleeping tablet last night, I only managed 2 hours sleep.
This is not the environment for someone with my symptoms and I've no idea how long I'm going to be in here for. I am trying to see it from their perspective, they don't feel they could have left me the way I was and taken the risk, but it's not even been 24hrs and already I want to go home!


text: My daughter has just moved to Ottawa from Toronto for university. She has grown up with a taste for good food, but hasn't the budget for it as a student. In Toronto, she could eat well, cheap... from Bacchus Roti to Pho Hung to Sushi Time on Queen. Can anyone recommend good, cheap eats in Ottawa? Also, I want to take her out for her birthday and I am stumped. DOmus looks great, but too pricey, same with Black Cat Cafe... we love to eat, and I'd love to treat her, but I'd prefer to take her somewhere that she could conceivably return to with friends for a celebratory meal..

Aug 10: Here Is What To Avoid Doing When You Are Shopping For Jewelry
Guys are extremely fussy about the jewelry they wear, particularly when they are talented some that may seem feminine. When selecting fashion jewelry for a guy, make certain it something that chooses the means that they dress. Likewise, when choosing exactly what you will certainly get for him ensures that it is subtle and not flashy.When selecting fashion jewelry to put on to your wedding, decide first if you wish to buy it or rent it. Frequently the jewelry you use as a bride-to-be isn't really necessarily something you 'd use once again, so renting is an exceptional option and will get you a higher grade of product than you might be able to buy outright.
Make certain you offer yourself sufficient time when purchasing a brand-new fashion jewelry piece. A lot of pieces have a turnaround time of six to 8 weeks. This can end up being an issue quickly if you require the fashion jewelry for a vital event. Make certain you give yourself extra time on top of the proposed time-frame. To assist jewelry preserve its optimum possible value you must aim to keep it in a beautiful condition. Not just will it look much better on you however it will likewise fetch a greater asking cost should you ever choose to sell it. Semiannual journeys to fashion jewelry establishment for regular cleanings will certainly help achieve this.
If you are purchasing a piece of fashion jewelry for a lady, make sure to make the effort to make note of the design of jewelry she wears on an everyday basis. As soon as you have a much better concept of exactly what her precious jewelry style is, you will have the ability to narrow down the designs and types of fashion jewelry items and find one that will make sure to wow her.Jewelry can make or break an attire, and it can make or break a budget. By using the foregoing guidance, you can purchase precious jewelry with even more savvy, utilize it with even more course and inform yourself about the finer points of accessories and design. Keep these pointers in mind, if you want to shine like diamonds in courteous company.
If you are fortunate adequate to have a great piece of emerald jewelry, then you will want to be careful in how you clean it, as it requires special care. You can soak it in cool water and then briefly brush it. Do not use hot water, steam or extreme heat, and cleaning with harsh solutions should be avoided.When you are shopping for gifts, why not consider a jewelry set? Jewelry in sets comes with a discount at many jewelry stores. You do not need to offer your loved one the entire set at once. You can present him or her with one piece as each occasion comes around. It is an excellent way to know that you have a gift for someone that he or she is sure to like.
When figuring out the kind of fashion jewelry you must buy for your better half, you need to always remember that quality does count. Even though you ought to always intend to make your purchase an economical one, you do not wish to compromise quality. When you have actually a set cost, look around for a great deal.When purchasing fashion jewelry for someone it is very important to think about what she or he does each day. You do not wish to provide a mom with young children a necklace, as she will certainly not be able to wear it when she is around her youngsters. Toddlers love to pull on lockets and it might injure the mommy's neck or cause the locket to break. She would then feel guilt and nobody really wants that.
When selling fashion jewelry online, you should intend to offer as many changes as you can. A customer might love a certain piece, but it is 9 inches long instead of the 8 inches she or he desires. If you don't have a change to that piece, you could lose that consumer. For that reason, you need to have insight in your design stage in order to be able to accommodate your customers.This relates to saunas that are steam or dry. The moisture and heat can cause your jewelry to end up being damaged.

The New Cold War
The United States once again finds itself in a cold war. But this time the adversary is not Russia, China, Iran, North Korea or any other foreign power. This time the adversary is us. We Americans are embroiled in a domestic cold war — a cold civil war.

Islamic Radicals and Welfare Vacuums: A dangerous marriage
In the first presidential debate, Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump remarked that "ISIS happened a number of years ago in a vacuum." The term "vacuum" was most likely a slur on the current administration's foreign policy; however, if we understand it as a reference to the lack of governance in areas of the Middle East then the statement is not entirely untrue.

Here are some verses where you can fill in the blank with your name and pray them in the Name of Jesus , who is above every Name . I do not believe in repetitous or mechanical pray but I truly believe this is breathed of God's Holy Spirit and will impact your life: We can do tha twith so many verses and this is just an example and will help us to pray the will of God . Eph 1:4 According as he hath chosen --- in him before the foundation of the world, that --- should be holy and without blame before him in love: Eph 1:5 Having predestinated --- unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, Eph 1:6 To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made --- accepted in the beloved. Eph 1:7 In whom --- have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace; Eph 1:8 Wherein he hath abounded toward --- in all wisdom and prudence; Eph 1:9 Having made known unto --- the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself: Eph 1:10 That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him: Eph 1:11 In whom also --- have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will: Eph 1:12 That --- should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ. Eph 1:13 In whom --- also trusted, after that --- heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that --- believed, --- were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Eph 1:14 Which is the earnest of --- inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory. Eph 1:15 Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints, Eph 1:16 Cease not to give thanks for ---, making mention of you in my prayers; Eph 1:17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto --- the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: Eph 1:18 The eyes of --- understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, Eph 1:19 And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us --- who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, Eph 1:20 Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, Eph 1:21 Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: Eph 1:22 And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, Eph 1:23 Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.

This is an urban park just south of Miami adjacent to the Miami zoo. It is well laid out with circular pods and spacious sites. There is quite a bit of shade which is especially nice in the summer. There are large grassy areas between the pods. There is a pool, but only open on weekends. The pads are asphalt and somewhat rough - they are narrow but adequate. It can be tight getting in and out of the pad due to the trees. Hookups are fine. Wifi is spotty. We camped in a 34' motorhome. - Donauw

We stayed in this RV park for the winter. The sites are large, some with shade. They are laid out in a circle, like the spokes of a wheel, so there is extra space at the back end of the site. The restrooms, showers, laundry and pool are all clean and in good shape. We plan to come back every winter. - A-J

Staying here reminded me of the "Bell Curve" that we learned about in high school. The beginning and end of our stay were bad but the middle was very good. Let me elaborate. We checked in and were directed to our site. We easily backed in, even though it was on my blind side. We set up, disconnected the tow vehicle, and it was then that I saw the problem. Someone prior to our stay must have been doing repairs here, as my wife and I found finishing nails, 3" drywall screws, wood screws, metal screws, and at least 4 dozen pop rivets (used and unused) all over the macadam site. This was unacceptable! Of course we had already backed in and set up, so I spent the next hour checking my tires, 4 of which had run over this mess, and collecting what we could see. I put everything in a bag, and took it to the office. They apologized, but by that time it was too late. I had already driven on the screws and nails. I don't completely fault the campground because they can't check every site upon someone departing, but someone from the park had to see what was going on and should have reported it. The middle part of the stay was good. It is very quiet at night, even though the park is in the middle of the city, and the people were friendly. Then the other end of the Bell Curve. At 9:10 AM on our check-out day (check out is 11:00 AM), a family in a Class C stopped and indicated to me that this was their site and they wanted to know when I was leaving. I am normally out of a campground by 10 AM, but I hadn't even showered or dumped the tanks yet so I knew it was going to be at least an hour or more. What infuriates me is that the park would allow someone to check in at 9:00 AM to an occupied site when the check out time is 11:00 AM. Unfortunately, we won't be staying here again. - Love To Travel 2

Grass and dirt.. tree roots so we had to maneuver the RV so that we could level the coach. Trees could be trimmed up so you can get your slides out without touching them. Really close to your neighbors.. but in Florida a lot of sites are close. Would go to the all grass sites next time. No tree roots there. They charge you a Resort fee for each day you are there but, wifi you have to buy each day you are there... not free at your site.. my thoughts are if you are paying a extra Resort fee then wifi should be included... you can go to the deck where u can login. That's where it's free. nice pool and hot tub. Nice prickleball courts and put put course. Interior roads need some repair. Then there is car & trucks parked on both side of the roads can be a little tricky driving thru to get to your sites with a tow dolly and car. - virginiagirl2015

Sites are close together. No sewer smell as previously noted. Quiet. I had a bathroom emergency in which a staff person called the troops because the bathroom was "closed for cleaning" even though it was empty. Later I was confronted like a trouble maker over uncleaned dog droppings which may or may not have been from my dog. I was asked to leave but staff gave me "one more chance" when I asked for a refund. Overall staff were rigid, rude and discourteous. Many sites were long term campers who I felt were unfriendly towards outsiders intruding on their campground. - Lumatic

Noise rules are not enforced and the sewer smell is nauseating. Good points are people are nice and bathrooms are clean. I would not stay here again. - gmbmailbox

We came to Gator Park to see the Gator show. It was convenient to stay here, as Gator Park was located halfway between our two stops. We stayed for a night and while the campground is not luxurious, we did not have any issues. There was no laundry room or central bathrooms. Our spot, #20, only had electric and water but we did see some sites with sewer. After the park closed at 5:00 PM, the area calmed down considerably and overnight we were not disturbed. I think $30 a night for what is offered is a bit high. $25 would be more appropriate. Would I recommend this park? For a single night. Would we come back? Not likely. We will explore another campground next time. - Dr. Moreau

First, let me say the area is beautiful. Just a few miles west are some great air boat rides and Shark Valley is the place to go to see abundant wildlife. However, this RV park is by far the worst I have ever seen. The staff was rude and indifferent. The road was in poor condition and the grass at the campsites was tall. The water constantly looked and smelled rusty. It was so bad it even stained our shower and commode. Some full time residents were dumping waste water on the ground and a strong odor emanated from that. The power was unreliable as well. As we were leaving we discovered there was no water available at the dump station to clean our hose or the area. If you must stay here be sure to bring your own water and don't even try to bathe in that stuff. If you can at all, skip this place entirely. I sure do wish we had. - User2063

The people were very rude and after their cursing they told us they make their money from the Europeans taking the airboat rides and don't need campers. Also they get their camping money from the Europeans staying with them. - tandkj

This is an Encore park and I expected better from them. The roads are paved and so are the spots. The spots are one on top of the other with barely room to open the slide. The utilities are on the wrong side so the cords and hoses have to be drug under the camper. Site 391 is possibly the worst one. A huge tree in the back so you can only back up so far. Then the utility hook ups are honestly at your door. After plugging in, the power would not work until hubby wiggled the plug. There was no room for our car. We had to park in a neighbors spot. We brought this to the attention of the manager with no satisfaction. - esta34950

This is a "trailer park" that allows RVs. Old park with sites not designed for modern RVs such as sewer dumps found under trailer parking sites, electrical connections with face plates missing and open to the elements. - Scenic Cruiser

This park is so tight I could not leave until the extra parking lot cleared out so I could make the tight U-turn to leave the park. The staff parked a 5th wheel that was too big for the site on the inside corner. I had to wait for a site in front of me to clear out just to leave this place. I will never come back to this KOA! - CambucK

Although this is a small park, improvements are ongoing. Very level site for our 38 MH. We only stayed overnight on our way to Key Largo. Sites are crushed white stone and paver patios are being installed. Great park for smaller RV's. Landscaping is beautiful with enough room to get out slides on both sides. Minimal landscaping between sites, but all is neat and cared for. Utilities easy hookup and clean. We did have a pull through because we did not want to unhook for overnight stay. We took a walk through the neighborhood, quiet and neat. Staff unbelievably friendly and accommodating. - fitnfree

Large Broward county park with lake & lots of activity opportunities. Clean facilities and interior roads (once you get to the campground ), but the road into the park and the confusing signage to get you to the campground is tricky. Some of the utility hookups are at the end of the long sites, I saw rigs with as many as 7 sewer hose sections to reach the septic hook up. Busy snowbird park. - rvrrat520
Dec 2016 - $42.00
Good news first: excellent office and security staff who checked me in after dark. Miami traffic prevented arrival before 5 pm.
Bad news: train noise made sleep impossible. The trains right next to RV park DO RUN at night and only stopped blowing horn after 2:30 am and I was there on a Monday night. Horns started up again at 6:30 AM. This alone would make me never stay here again but a security issue, unidentified man in woman's washroom while I was in there makes returning 100% impossible.
Also it is very unsafe to return to the park after 6 pm because they require you to enter the EXIT lanes which are very narrow. The park has few lights and poor signage so call in advance if arriving after dark, which is 5:30 pm in December. - imagardener

This is a Broward County Park located in Hollywood, FL, about 5 miles from the beach. It is a very nice campground. The driveways and site pads are asphalt in good condition. Each site has a large concrete patio, picnic table and a grill. It's located next to the lake and alongside a walking/biking path that takes you throughout the park grounds. The bathrooms are in good condition and are kept clean. In fact, everything is very clean and well maintained. There is free WiFi that worked OK. There are trash and recycle containers conveniently located throughout the park. There is a communications tower located right next door so we had a strong AT&T 4G signal, -85dBm. We paid $40 per night. - Coopsecondact

This campground is as good as it gets if you are thinking of camping in the Miami-Ft. Lauderdale area. This a BIG county park, which makes it even more pleasant as the RV campground is situated by itself along a beautiful lake, with many of the RV sites having good views of the lake.
Plenty of room between sites. If you have a big rig ask for the north campsites which offer nice wide level asphalt sites.
Book early this place fills up especially during November- March "season." - LucyS

This is a spacious, well-designed venue that almost feels like a destination rather than a parking spot. It is located in the midst of a developed area and has a water park but you don't see or hear any of that (may be different during the November rock concert weekend, though). Facilities are all clean, include a laundry, showers, full 30- and 50-amp hookups. I stayed in a back-in slot with my Class B but pull-throughs are available. - Hal James

This RV park is within a very busy county recreation area. But the RV section is located in a quite area set back from the others activities and facilities. Most of the sites were shaded and mine was a pull thru, the roads were easy to maneuver and the bath house facilities were modern and clean. I did not see any laundry facilities and there was no cable TV and with the trees no satellite reception. But overall this is a very nice park. - trav

The park is directly in the flight path of Ft. Lauderdale airport. Planes start about 6am and don't end until about 10am. the planes are so low it cuts out the TV signal!!! No laundry, no restrooms and what are supposed to be cute Palm Fron shaded "huts" have no roof and just the frame is sitting there. This is where you go when you have no where else to go. I should have listened to the older reviews on this place, they are clearly the only honest ones. - RV maniac

I stayed at this park from May 2016 until February 2017. I am a construction worker and had a project in Port Everglades. This park deserves a 9 or a 10 due to the owner and her commitment to her guests. The park is clean and well maintained. We had absolutely no problems with the park or the staff. I thoroughly enjoyed our conversations. I gave the park an 8 because of the airport primarily. It is probably unfair to down rate it just for that reason but it is a significant inconvenience. I joked about there being wheel marks on top of my trailer. Those planes come in low and loud. They generally stop by 11pm and do not typically restart until after 5am but there are times when there are flights overnight and those can be annoying. I would/will stay here again even knowing what I know. I paid the off season rate because of the time of year that I got here. Our cost did not change just because the season changed and the snowbirds started flocking in. The owner told me up front that my rate would stay consistent during my stay. She could have been greedy but she wasn't and that's honorable. The yard guys come around once every couple of weeks and her maintenance guy is in there cleaning up and looking after the place. She does not let the yard guys start at the crack of dawn which is respectful. I would absolutely stay here again. I absolutely recommend this park. - jeffj

This is a large park, with many permanent sites. Very small sites, all paved. It is located in a highly industrialized area of Ft. Lauderdale, surrounded by scrap metal yards, lift rentals, etc. Most of the traffic on the road to the park is dump trucks and it is surrounded by highways. It is also located directly under the runway approach for landing aircraft to Ft. Lauderdale airport. On the good side, it was fairly friendly, the Wi-Fi was mostly OK, although it was intermittent at times. It is centrally located, so you can get to wherever you want to go fairly well. What I found most interesting is that English is the minority language. It is overwhelmingly French Canadian. - gsgroff

If you enjoy sitting at the departure end of a major airport and hearing screaming jets fly over every few minutes, then this place is for you! In addition, we were given site S4, which is one of the sites right up against busy Burris Road. Let me out of here! Thankfully, it was only a 3-night stay, and I have no idea how the hundreds of Canadian folks can live here for weeks or months. The woman who "greeted" us at the front gate was not at all friendly, and I'm sure she won't mind that we'll never be back. Sites for RV's were very tight, although the concrete pad was nice and level. Water pressure was extremely high - don't forget your regulator. 50-amp power was adequate. Verizon reception was great, and a strong picnic table was available at most sites. Bathrooms were very nice, and clean, but the showers did not provide shelves or benches for items I would want to take with me. The laundry machines required that you purchase a $5.00 card and charge it at their machine - no thanks, I'll wait for the next stop! There was a nice walking/biking path along nearby Orange Drive that we enjoyed. Good grocery stores and other services were fairly close by. I'm sorry, but I fail to find anything about this park that warrants $65 per day. Oh, here comes another jet - gotta go! - LowesTravels
Jan 2014 - $60.00
Sites are small, close together. Most are permanent or semi-permanent. The location is convenient to the highways, in an industrial area. It is also directly under the landing path for Ft. Lauderdale airport, so there is a continuous stream of jets overhead. At our site, the WIFI was mostly OK. Water was good. Staff was friendly. It is a very popular place for Quebecois, so many of the guests here are French speaking. Kind of a culture shock, but interesting! This is not necessarily a negative, just an observation. - gsgroff
Mar 2013 - $60.00
Staff are very helpful and can provide lots of info for the area even if they don't appear to love their jobs. The website and site brochure are a bit misleading as the 8 laundry locations have been reduced to 3 and some other facilities have changed. The park is on the flight path for the airport which can be very busy. They park is generally well maintained especially in the large area occupied by the seasonal Quebec population. Most signs in the park are only in French. Wi-Fi is okay and they offer RV storage. We would stay again if in the area for a short time. - lrp374

I was just browsing Modcloth when I saw these shoes, and I fell in love. I am seriously craving these, they are adorable. And I just couldn't help but make up an outfit to wear with them. This is definitely something you would see me in this fall; I love stripes and the oversizedness (is that a word? It is now) of the top, and pleated shorts are my weakness. Plus, who wouldn't love such cute accessories?

But at 1:30 in the afternoon, walking home in the hot Argentine sun leaves my feet a little sore and my stomach a little rumbly. As much as I love cooking, thinking about cooking, reading about cooking, and shopping so I can cook, this is one of those times when I am not in a super 3-course meal kind of mood.
Banana bread is super fast, and it doesn´t take so much watching that I cant run off for a quick shower while it is in the oven.
1/2 cup white sugar
(or just one cup of brown sugar will work for those not living in South America)

1 1/2 cups of all purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
Preheat the oven to 325. Cream together the butter and sugar, then mash in the bananas, I like to use a potato masher. Add the egg, then mix the dry ingredients together and then add them to the wet. Cook for about 55 minutes until golden brown and a knife inserted comes out clean.
