CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa - The stage was set for the three Heidelberg University Student Princes who traveled to the 2013 NCAA Division III Wrestling Championships in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
The morning session began at 11:00 a.m. from the Cedar Rapids Ice Arena and shortly after 125-pounder Delian Schneider (Tiffin/Columbian) was the first Berg wrestler to step onto the mat.
Schneider entered the Championships unseeded and drew the number six seed, Charlie Frankel of Delaware Valley College in the first round. Schneider took an early lead but Frankel would erase the deficit and take the lead with a minute left in the third period.
With less then a minute left in the match, Schneider compiled a ferocious offensive flurry to tie the match before the end of regulation. In sudden victory overtime, Schneider scored a takedown on the edge of the mat propelling him into the championship quarterfinals.
Delian squared off with Jimmy Gotto of nearby Coe College in the quarterfinals. Gotto knocked off the number three seed from Johns Hopkins in the preliminary round.
Schneider wrestled a tough match but fell to the Kohawk, 5-4 with riding time.
Following the loss, Delian was faced with a win or go home situation against Miguel Venecia of Elmhurst College. Venecia proved too much for Schneider as he fell, 12-3 and was eliminated from competition.
At 197-pounds, two-time national qualifier and 2013 Mideast Regional champion Andy Lovins (Clinton Township, MI./Lake Shore) shockingly drew the number one seed, Jared Myhrberg of SUNY-Cortland in the preliminaries.
The Student Princes stood tall and upset Myhrberg in a thrilling 3-2 decision.
After the electrifying victory Lovins squared off eight seed, Trent Flegel of Luther College. Lovins defeated the Viking 2-1 to move on to the semifinals tomorrow morning.
With the victory over Flegel, Lovins earns All-American honors regardless of the result tomorrow. The worst possible outcome would be a sixth place finish but with the finals in sight, a national championship is on the Student Princes' mind.
Lovins is set to battle Mike Benefiel of Elmhurst College in the semifinals. Benefiel is the fourth seed at 197-pounds.
Unlike his two teammates, 184-pound sophomore transfer Richard Dowdley (Cleveland/Ginn Academy) was not as successful in the preliminary round. Dowdley wrestled the number six seed, Sam Upah of number one ranked Wartburg College.
Dowdley battled with Upah for three periods but could not pullout the win, losing by major decision, 9-1.
Dowdley continued his day in the consolation round against Shane Parcel of Roger Williams University. Dowdley handed the Hawk a 10-2 loss, advancing into the second round of wrestlebacks.
That is where Dowdley's run at All-American status would end as Richard fell to Ronald Dunlop from the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, 5-4 in a controversial match.

The LiverpoolFC Forum > Technology and Science
just got a new pair of PC speakers
behold the logitech z-2300
I am impressed beyond measure. Those two small speakers are the loudest home speakers I have ever heard. How they packed that much power into such small speakers is beyond me. I can blow away the neighbours at half the volume.
Living as I do in a hall of residence, I haven't dared testing them at full power yet, though I am told they can play that without any problems, the subwoofer coming along as well.
So far, I am mightily impressed not just with the volume but the amazing clarity at such high volumes. the sub-woofer follows along like an obedient dog with the bass turned on full.
They are ace beyond measure, works great relaying movies as well (Lord of the Rings has never sounded better).
I'm like a kid in a candy store right now. ;D
Brick Tamland:
How much did they set you back?
94£ including delivey. probably a bit cheaper in the UK due to taxes.
You havent lived until you've played HL2 in 5.1
thought about going for 5.1 but my current accomodation means I can't really set it up properly.
These though.... Playing at maybe 1/3-1/4 of the volume, and it can be heard through closed doors 20 yards down in the kitchen. ;D
the next party here I am going to try them out at full volume. The walls will be shaking. :thumbup

text: Worship Life at Amazing Grace Every church has their own style of worship. We think you'll enjoy the services at Amazing Grace, but as in any church, you should expect it to take a couple of Sundays to get accustomed to our way of praising God and proclaiming what he has done for us. We teach from the Bible and our worship revolves around the Scriptures. We recognize the Bible as God's Word to men, and that it has authority over the thoughts and opinions of man. Our pastor's goal to make these ancient truths relevant and applicable to every-day life. Music certainly is an important part of our services. Loud or soft, in monotone or rich harmony, all our praises are music to God as we respond to hearing His Word. Perhaps you'll even remember a favorite hymn or song to ask our pastor to use in an upcoming service! We want our worship to be kid-friendly and welcoming. We recognize how important it is for families to worship together, yet know the struggles associated with little ones who have short attention spans and can be squirmy. We strive to do all we can to make worship a positive experience for the whole family. When pondering God's love for us and our opportunity to praise and thank him for that love, we recall the words of the Psalm writer: "I rejoiced with those who said to me, 'Let us go to the house of the LORD.'" (Psalm 122:1)

Horrible hotel
Posted Aug 21, 2013 on Hotels.comIt is far from centre but they tell u it's right at the centre. Fire alarm goes off in the middle of night waking everyone up but when they come downstairs to complain the management are indifferent. Rooms have no AC and burning hot.

A bit overpriced but clean and comfortable room
Posted Aug 5, 2013Pros: The room was comfortable and clean
Cons: Our stay was too short to spot any area for improvement. coffee and tea available 24/7 however no water
Location: Far from the central station and the rest of Amsterdam attractions. 10 minutes bus to museum square
I spent 2 nights this hotel. Almost 20 minutes drive from the airport (35 euro taxi fare). 15 minutes bus to central station, about 10 minutes to Museum square. Room was comfortable No AC and the windows did not fully open (safety reason i guess) Upon check out my friend left his mobile in the room and called the hotel to check if it was there. They hotel staff have offered to send an "affiliated" taxi to send the mobile at the airport for 35 euro, however as the driver arrived he said it was 45 euros and also demanded the tip! not really pleased about that but it's not the hotel fault if the driver is a thief

Posted Jun 17, 2013Pros: relaxing and comfortable
Cons: maybe slightly more choice at breakfast
Location: quiet and peaceful
Excellent hotel - very comfortable and relaxing atmosphere away from the buzz of Amsterdam and nice walks and restaurants around the area. Would like to have hired a bike for a short time but really too expensive from the hotel - they had some outside - so maybe they should get some of their own to hire out as its a nice area for visitors to cycle around.

Elegant neighbourhood
Posted Apr 30, 2013 on Hotels.comWell located very close to public transport and a small shopping area. Rooms are very clean but average size for Europe - that is, rather cramped for overseas travellers with large bags. Tea/coffee available all day in foyer. Breakfast is continental style and okay. Only criticism is that the pillows are hard and lumpy when they are so cheap to buy, it's a pity that this hotel doesn't upgrade them.

Poor Best Western hotel
Posted Apr 28, 2013Very small and dark room which had been advertised as spacious and airy. The window wouldn't stay open and it was very hot and stuffy - no air conditioning. Breakfast was expensive for what it was so we went out for breakfast locally. Hotel was in a good location to explore Amsterdam and the hotel staff were friendly and helpful but I wouldn't return or recommend it.

Not what I expected from a 4 star hotel. ALthough it was a nice neighborhood, access to transportation was great. The hotel itself was very old, staff was ok but not very friendly. Cleaning staff was below par, found previous tenants trash still in room.

I spend such a long time researching new purchases with the help of my favourite blogs, YouTube and Makeup Alley that I'm not often disappointed - but, as I'm sure we all do, I've bought into the hype around products on more than one occasion. While it normally results in an amazing new product, I sometimes don't understand the high praise products receive. So I thought I'd gather together those products lurking in my cupboard that I either wouldn't repurchase or which just didn't live up to their rave reviews.
If you have any 'favourite' overhyped or disappointing products I'd love to know what they are!

Predicting the 2009-2010 NFL Playoff Teams
By (Correspondent) on June 23, 2009
9,435 reads
Wondering what the 2009-2010 NFL Playoffs are going to look like? Get the answers right here. In this slideshow, you'll find the top six NFC and top six AFC teams to combine for the top 12 NFL Playoff teams. There are some surprises!
You won't even need to watch the NFL this upcoming season. Go on vacation, spend time outside, because I've got all your answers right here!
Just sit back, relax, and watch the 2009-2010 NFL season play out right in front of your eyes in just a matter of minutes!
12. San Francisco 49ers (9-7)
The San Francisco 49ers will be the sixth best team in the NFC.
New head coach Mike Singletary will lead with a different style and motivate his team to win. Behind their new physical style and taking advantage of a very weak 2009 NFC West, the Niners will squeeze into the party at 9-7.
11. Houston Texans (10-6)
The Houston Texans will win the second wild card in the AFC.
As long as Matt Schaub stays healthy, the Houston offense will be one of the best in the conference. With a surprising defense and strong special teams unit, the Texans will shock the NFL and make their first ever playoff appearance.
10. Carolina Panthers (10-6)
The Carolina Panthers will rebound from their deflating loss to the eventual NFC Champion Cardinals in last year's divisional round and win a wild card spot in '09.
The Panthers defense will be one of the best, and the Panthers offense will show they can be explosive.
9. Minnesota Vikings (10-6)
The Vikings will welcome Brett Favre to town and thank him with a division title.
With Favre once again out of retirement, this time wearing Viking purple, Minnesota will win the North. However, Favre's shoulder will wear down again, and the Vikes will fall short of any Super Bowl visions.
8. Tennessee Titans (11-5)
The Tennessee Titans will top the AFC South for the second season in a row.
Behind the AFC's best running game and one of the top defensive units, the Titans will fight to an 11-5 record.
7. New Orleans Saints (11-5)
With a suddenly solid defense, a great running game led by Pierre Thomas, and a top QB in Drew Brees, the New Orleans Saints will take the top spot in the NFC South.
6. New York Jets (11-5)
New head coach Rex Ryan will change the mentality and style of play in New York. The Jets will have a dominant defense, strong running game, and be a very physical football team.
Rookie QB Mark Sanchez will get a lot of help from the running game behind Thomas Jones, Leon Washington, and third-round pick Shonn Greene.
5. Pittsburgh Steelers (12-4)
The Super Bowl XLIII champions will make a run at defending their title. The Steelers will again win the AFC North and go deep into the playoffs. Their defense will be dominant, and their offense will be very good.
4. New York Giants (12-4)
The New York Giants' running game was one of the best in '08, and it'll have to come up big again in 2009. With the loss of top wide receiver Plaxico Burress, the Giants' pass offense could struggle.
Brandon Jacobs and the run game will have to be as good as ever. I think they will get it done. Along with the running game, the defense will be very dominant and help the Giants win the wild card.
3. San Diego Chargers (13-3)
Philip Rivers will lead one of the best offenses in the NFL in 2009.
With the dominant San Diego offense, and the defense returning to its old form, the Chargers will easily win the weak AFC West.
2. Philadelphia Eagles (13-3)
Donovan McNabb got what he wanted this offseason: He got his weapons, as the Eagles added WR Jeremy Maclin in April's draft, and he got his new contract. McNabb will have more to celebrate in '09 when the Eagles make a return trip to the Super Bowl.
1. New England Patriots (13-3)
Tom Brady and Randy Moss are itching to get back onto the field together. Brady is coming off major knee surgery, which kept him out most of 2008. In 2007, Brady and Moss hooked up 23 times, a record for Moss, and Brady tossed another 27 TDs to total 50, also a record.
In 2009, the Pats will reach the top of the mountain for the fourth time this decade and be crowned champions!
I'm sure this list shocked you in different ways. You're probably thinking I'm crazy putting the Niners, Texans, and even Saints into the playoffs. You probably think I'm even crazier leaving out strong teams from '08 like Atlanta, Arizona, Baltimore, or Miami.
But I bet the biggest problem you have with this list is the fact Peyton Manning and the Colts will miss the playoffs. I think the many changes in Indy will really hurt them. Mainly, I think injuries will plague the Colts.
I'm not saying they're going to go 4-12. They'll be in the playoff hunt; they'll just fall short.
Maybe I am crazy—who knows?

Homemade Cornbread
by Joe G in Rouxbe RecipesThis moist and tender cornbread recipe is easy to make and the fresh herbs and jalapeño add an extra punch of flavor!
This moist and tender cornbread recipe is easy to make and the fresh herbs and jalapeño add an extra punch of flavor!
Preheat the oven to 375ºF or 190°C.
Start by seeding and finely dicing jalapeño. If you want the cornbread to be spicier, leave the seeds in. Wash your hands thoroughly once finished. Finely chop the fresh herbs.
To make the cornbread, sift all of the dry ingredients together: flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and cornmeal.
In a separate bowl, mix together eggs, milk and melted butter.
Mix the wet and dry ingredients together just until the dry ingredients have been moistened. Then fold in jalapeños, herbs and corn. Do not overmix.
To bake the cornbread, spray two loaf pans with non-stick cooking spray. Then evenly divide the batter between the two pans. Bake 30 - 40 minutes.
*Note - You can also use a rectangular cake pan or even muffin tins; however, keep in mind that the baking times will vary.
Test the center with a fork or wooden skewer. If it comes out clean, the cornbread is ready. Let the cornbread cool for a few minutes before loosening the edges with a knife. Then turn out onto a cooling rack.
You can add different types of cheese to cornbread such as feta, sharp cheddar and goat cheese.
This recipe is also part of a delicious recipe called Cornbread Brunch. Toasted cornbread, topped with a bit of tomato sauce, a poached egg and a touch of pesto and feta cheese.
Cornbread is also really good friends with Homemade Chili.

Birth of a new volcano or allien shuttle ?
Patomsky crater
link to i42.tinypic.com
] )
From inaccessible area in Siberia expedition of scientists which study the reason of occurrence of mysterious object — the Patomsky crater has returned. As it was found out, when that round it there was a zone of raised radiation, and on depth there is a formation with unusual properties.
Results of the largest expedition to the Patomsky crater have got sensational interpretation. A huge funnel in a taiga, height — 40 meters, diameter — 86.
link to www.ntv.ru
link to planeta.moy.su
Now scientists in Moscow and Irkutsk still analyze the materials brought by us. But the first conclusions can be made:
- It is more than similar anomalies anywhere in the world doesn't exist;
- Its age - approximately 250 years, and our crater, much to our regret, isn't connected in any way with the Tungus meteorite;
- «The Nest of a fiery eagle» isn't radioactive, but round it there is a serious magnetic anomaly. Presumably its reason is the certain metal object lying on depth 100 - 150 meters;
- A crater till now "live" - it and now changes the form rising falling.
The head of geological group professor Victor Antipin even is assured of our expedition that underground there was not one, and some strange events. He considers that there was at least three underground explosions or something another during a small time interval. And thanks to it three times on a surface threw out stony breeds which have formed a crater. But why and as it has occurred in the same place, scientists yet don't understand. The most part of scientific experts of expedition tend to that is a question about very unusual both on structure, and on properties a meteorite. As similar precedents in the history our planet already were.
... ...
In the summer the group of the doctor of geologo-mineralogical sciences of Alexander DMITRIEV of Irkutsk state technical university managed to find out in a crater magnetic anomaly. Approximately on depth of 150 meters there is something from iron or other material reminding it on properties. A meteorite? But "Nest" under the form isn't so similar to other traces of bombardment of the Earth from space. One more expert, the doctor of physical and mathematical sciences Igor SIMONOV from the Moscow institute of problems of mechanics of the Russian Academy of Sciences, has spent a series of experiments, has constructed model and has proved that the crater could be formed from falling of a certain cylindrical object of a superdense material. On the Earth such material isn't present, but somewhere in space, Igor Valentinovich believes, can quite exist.
As well as it is necessary in the scientific world, doctor Simonov has presented the work on court of colleagues. And soon the senior research assistant, Cand.Tech.Sci. Igor YERMOLAEV from Institute of mechanics of the Moscow State University has spent one more series of experiments and has proved that the falling object could be not only the cylinder, but also two bodies, flying one behind another with a speed more than 6,5 km/s!
- At blow about a surface the first object has blown up, having formed the big crater, - Igor Konstantinovich, - and the second speaks, without having had time to collapse, because of explosion has lowered speed, presumably to 1,5 km/s, and has entered into a ground.
- But two meteorites can't fly one after another, getting to one point! Even if one big body would break up in air pieces would scatter every which way...
- Truly. Therefore I even can't present the nature of this strange object. I don't know that it.

Letter to the editor: Bird count was a brrrr one
When Isabella Christmas bird count participants took to the woods Jan. 2, they experienced the second-coldest day in the 28-year history of the count, with the temperature starting out at minus-29 degrees and never topping 6 below zero.
When Isabella Christmas bird count participants took to the woods Jan. 2, they experienced the second-coldest day in the 28-year history of the count, with the temperature starting out at minus-29 degrees and never topping 6 below zero. One might assume the cold weather deterred our counters, thus explaining the low total number of birds reported—572, barely half the count average. That was hardly the case, though, as our 36 counters proved their cold weather mettle by racking up an above-average number of miles and hours on foot and by car.
Since the wind wasn't a factor, it seems the birds weren't out there this year. Of our count's 15 most common species, only three were tallied in above-average numbers: downy woodpecker, common raven, and American goldfinch.
How slow was it? On average, our counters tallied about a bird every ten minutes, barely surpassing the record low rate from two years ago and only about a third of the average rate for all Isabella counts of 18 birds counted per party hour.
That's not to say the count was all dull. For one, 24 species were tallied, compared to our count average of 21. They included northern hawk-owls, great gray owls, a golden-crowned kinglet (only the third one for our count), and a gray catbird — an Isabella count first.
Lawson and Lynden Gerdes stumbled upon the catbird feeding on deer and beaver carcasses at White Wilderness Sled Dog base. While this was exciting news for our count, the catbird story did not end happily, at least for the catbird. When the couple returned the next day to photograph the bird, they found it dead in the snow, perhaps a victim of a second consecutive night of near 30-below temps. Indeed, Robert Janssen's book, "Birds in Minnesota," suggests that few of the catbirds that attempt to overwinter in Minnesota are successful.
The downy woodpecker forage tree study received quite a boost, with the number of documented forage trees rising from 29 to 79. At that rate, we could have a meaningful sample size in several more years. The preliminary results are intriguing, but I won't reveal them yet because I don't want to influence future data collection. Thanks to everyone who participated in the study, though.
Thanks to everyone who participated and contributed to another successful Isabella Christmas bird count.

True; especially if procmail is the MDA, you cannot tell a delivering procmail to use a different value for its timeout. (You can tell lockfile, but its value is not the problem.) Generally procmail considers a lockfile stale after 1024 seconds, or just over seventeen minutes. If it is getting close to seventeen minutes since you started editing the copy of the mailbox and you aren't done yet, touch the lockfile to update its modification time. | I realize in this case the edits are quick, but in general, .... I'd guess that in general the edits would take less than seventeen minutes and that the situation you brought up would be fairly rare. | How about: | | %lockfile -ml | %mv /var/mail/furu furu.mbox | %lockfile -mu | | % --- edit furu.mbox here! --- | | %lockfile -ml | %cat /var/mail/furu >> furu.mbox | %mv furu.mbox /var/mail/furu | %lockfile -mu Yes ... or the sixth and seventh commands could be these instead if the sequence of messages in the spool file is not critical (and you are not using csh ... at least not a csh where you can't use the append redirector to create a not-yet-existent file). %cat furu.mbox >> /var/mail/furu %rm -f furu.mbox On second thought, with both those ifs, just take Wesley's original if you think there's any chance the edits will last seventeen minutes and four seconds or longer.

Cupcake Monday! The Magnificent Artistry of Cake Opera Co.
Cute cakes have their place - it's nice to eat something pretty without feeling as if you're destroying it. But there is another level altogether in the world of cakes, an artistry where the ingredients are regarded as media, the edible kind, and cakes are masterfully transformed into objects of exquisite beauty.
Alexandria Pelligrino is one of these extraordinary talents. As a fine artist she travelled to Florence to continue her art studies, then took up residence in Bologna, the gastronomical centre of Italy, where she became enchanted by food. This led her back to Toronto where she enrolled in the Patisserie program at Le Cordon Bleu. It was here that she met her future partner and pastry chef, Jessica Smith (more on her later!). Alexandria went on to found Cake Opera Co. in 2007 and has since achieved international recognition as one of the industry's leading cake designers. One glance at her stunning cakes - and her! (below) - and you wouldn't question why.
There are dozens of incredible creations on the Cake Opera Co.'s website, so I'm going to focus on my favourite of the cakes for this post. In the header image we see the Masquerade Ball-inspired Morretto Mask, one of the first of her signature 18th Century French figurine cakes. The "doctor death" mask, worn by bourgeoisie to conceal their illicit rendezvous, juxtaposes the fawn in her arms, a symbol of birth and innocence. How often do we get symbolism in our cake?!
This is Cake Opera Co.'s Milk Glass cake which I think is my favourite for its simple yet luxuriously textured detailing, created to resemble 1920s milk glass. The original was created as the piece du résistance for their table display at the 2010 Wedding Co. Show. A milk glass collector herself, Alexandria studied and combined many of her own cherished pieces into the final design. The desired result was to be a sleek yet vintage looking cake, evoking interest with its dynamic architectural form and contrasting this silhouette against more simple, pressed glass-like motifs. It is finished with a spray of confectionary glaze to resemble lustrous glass.
The Château de Versailles' Galerie des Glaces inspired this magnificent Hall of Mirrors cake. Created completely of cast sugar tiles and 24Kt gold molded details, it was constructed as an ode to Louis XIV, Dauphine of France, lover of luxury and excess. I think it's almost as ambitious an undertaking as the Hall of Mirrors itself!
'Pomegranate' is the four-tiered beauty that was borne of a request from event stylist Cynthia Martin to collaborate on a project at The Fermenting Cellar. The Style Me Pretty wedding blog had chosen Cynthia to take a Bohemian Romance-themed inspiration board and turn it into reality.
The cake is adorned with luxurious hand-sewn ribbon medallions and brooch detail, as well as an evocative hand sculpted pomegranate crowning the piece which denotes mystery and opulence. I love it when the cake designer uses textiles as decoration, it's such a lush effect.

Getting the Full Story
Somewhere between the 3rd and 4th Quarters, the candidates seemed to struggle with maintaining their disclosure rates, turning in a greater percentage of campaign finance records that lack the full names of their donors along with their occupations and employers. Of the candidates still in the race, five saw a decrease in their disclosure rates: Republicans Mitt Romney, John McCain, Mike Huckabee and Alan Keyes and Democrat Barack Obama. Democrat Hillary Clinton maintained her disclosure rates at about 90 percent. Only Republican Ron Paul, who had one of the lower rates of compliance after Q3, improved his disclosure rate in the last three months of the year, from 88.6 percent to 94.9 percentthe best among all candidates. Some of Paul's donors, however, list such occupations as "tax slave" or "multi-talented," presumably to evade the question. Keyes's disclosure rate declined the most, from 77.5 percent to 37.5 percent. The campaigns are responsible for going back to donors who don't fill out complete forms to get the information before turning it in to the Federal Election Commission.
Rate of Disclosure: Many of the candidates provided less complete information in the 4th Quarter compared to the 3rd.
Candidate Name | End of Q3 Disclosure Rate | End of Q4 Disclosure Rate |
Ron Paul | 88.6% | 94.9% |
Hillary Clinton | 90% | 89.7% |
Mitt Romney | 92.6% | 88% |
Mike Gravel | 87.9% | 87.9% |
John Mccain | 94.1% | 87% |
Barack Obama | 88.2% | 82% |
Mike Huckabee | 90.5% | 73% |
Alan Keyes | 77.5% | 37.5% |
Contributions are based on data available electronically from the Federal Election Commission on Jan. 31, 2008. Democrat Mike Gravel's 4th Quarter reports were not available at the time of posting.

Whew, Folks -
The Forum is born again! I think we all owe a big vote of thanks to Scot and the team at WoodenBoat.
As you can see, "People and Places Search" has been re-named to "People and Places". The idea for this came from an e-mail conversation I had with Scot a couple of weeks ago -
Scot was generous enough to agree with the suggestion, but it had to wait till this upgrade. And hell's teeth, it's looking good already. Loads of great stuff in here about boats and cruising and just generally messing about on the water.This is just an idea.
There is a lot of good stuff which just seems to get lost in the tidal race of "Miscellaneous". Nice little things about boats,
cruises and people generally messing about on the water. A regatta in NZ. New York waterfront in 1888. Often, by the time I see it it's nearly off the bottom of my page.
So here's my thought. How about we re-name "People and Places Search" to "People and Places". This is a very quiet area of the forum anyhow, and it might be a nice place to moor all the topics like the above, including my own snippets from Cornwall. Then they would kind of hang around for a while, and maybe create their own contemplative little quayside.
I can't claim ownership of this idea - Alan D Hyde
came up with it first in an e-mail to me, I think.
Best wishes from Cornwall to the best folks on the best forum on the Net [img]smile.gif[/img]

7 News Features: Dinner in a Dumpster
It's an age old question - why buy when you can get it for free? Tonight, hundreds of people in New York, Boston, and Miami are getting their groceries without paying a cent. But if you want a free dinner, it will have to be dinner from a dumpster. Here's 7's Adam Williams with more in tonight's special assignment report.
WSVN--Rasberry tarts, oranges, lettuce... Bread and more.
The average american spends more than 6 hundred dollars a month on groceries.
But the cost for the food you see here - nothing.
"Pretty much everything they sell inside of stores. they throw away pretty much."
To get your free meal, all you have to do is go through garbage.
"Anybody need some white bread, muffins, and bagels."
And dive in dumpsters.
"Who wants carrots?"
These people call themselves freegans - that's a combination of free and vegans - the term for people who don't eat animal products.
They're not poor, they're not homeless, they're not even unemployed.
But what they are is on a mission against captalism and over-consumption.
"It's definitely a way of life."
"I've seen so many dumpsters that could feed like 50 people."
By doing so, the freegans hope they're taking a bite out of a big problem.
In their scavenger hunt for survival, the members see themselves as modern day robin hoods - taking from the rich to feed the world.
Jason Samuels: "We're trying to feed ourselves and take care of ourselves outside of a wasteful expliotful system."
Adam Weissman: "Peoples basic needs are not being met; yet, stores see no problem with wasting goods that are safe, that are clean, and that could be helping curb problems like hunger."
Adam Williams: "But freegans aren't just looking for food. When they go digging through dumpsters, they're also searching for clothes, toys, books. Their strategy is to salvage anything and avoid buying as much as possible."
"We think this is something we need to be doing because the companies that make the products that we are buying are engaging in practices that we don't want to be supporting with our dollars."
As for getting dinner from a dumpster, the freegans claim they're not worried about getting sick.
They maintain most of the food they eat is still properly wrapped plus they wash everything and use discretion.
Janet Kalish: "When I take food home, I wash it and I take good care of it and I take good care of myself. there's the same danger of getting sick from food inside the store or the food outside the store."
But while trash isn't tempting to most of us, these crusaders hope to make a difference one dumpster at a time.
Boston Freegan: "It helps create a more sustainable soceity because less goes to waste."
One rule of freegan living - they will not go dumpster diving if there is a no trespassing sign. Plus they also usually travel with a first aid kit because of sharp edges and broken glass.

Traxxas Slash 4×4 Review
Traxxas Slash 4×4 Serious Fun… for a Toy!
For radio controlled racing enthusiasts, the idea of calling their vehicles toys is simply appalling, especially when they know what racers like the Traxxas Slash 4×4 remote control short course race trucks are capable of. Sure, all the big box stores sell various electric RC cars that truly can be considered toys, and the prices are certainly reflective of that fact. Those cars and trucks often look like they are durable, fast, and easy to operate, but any person who has ever bought one of these subpar machines knows that they are lucky if they last a week.
These cheaper vehicles serve one positive purpose, however – they often get people hooked on the sport of RC racing. Because of this, budding RC racing maniacs tend to start looking for more serious machines. The Traxxas Slash 4×4 is one such model. In fact, it is probably the class of the electric RC industry right now, and a machine that sets the standard by which most electric RC vehicles are judged. A lot of people still do not understand what makes the Traxxas Slash so much better than its competitors, though.
Let's Look at Some of the Great Features of the Traxxas Slash 4×4
Traxxas Slash Brushless Power
Brushless DC motors are far more efficient than their brushed counterparts, and they are also known to be able to produce much higher speeds while requiring a great deal less maintenance. The Traxxas Slash 4×4 features the powerful Velineon Extreme Brushless Power System, which works as a comprehensive symbiotic arrangement that includes the Velineon VXL-3s Speed Control, and the Velineon 3500 brushless motor. These components are engineered to work together and with all the other vehicle's components to create a machine that is greater than the sum of its parts. The best part is that this system is ready to go right out of the box. Just plug and play, and the vehicle is ready to race.
Velineon Power System Features At A Glance
- Custom-wound brushless motor
- Velineon VXL-3s speed control for maximum power and efficiency
- Features full LIPO compatibility
- Neodymium magnets able to withstand high temperatures
- High-speed ball bearings
- Consistent performance race after race
The Slash 4×4 Is Built For Speed
Short course racing requires big bursts of high speed, and the Traxxas Slash 4×4 delivers in a big way. The stock model which comes with the standard 3000mAh 7-cell battery pack is capable of reaching speeds greater than 40 MPH. For those who need even more speed, the unit is compatible with the legendary Mamba Monster ESC. Just drop the MM into the Slash, and the truck is capable of reaching speeds of over 80 MPH, though novices should probably stick to the stock options until they get more comfortable with the vehicles' speed and handling.
Four Wheel Drive
Though it is possible to get a high-performance short course RC truck in two wheel drive for a few dollars less, that option is not recommended for racers who want the best in vehicle control and handling. The four wheel drive option means that users will be able to take corners faster and with more control. It also means that the truck enjoys much more stability, even when flying through the air after lifting off a massive jump. More importantly, landing that epic jump with precision and control is a greater possibility in 4wd than 2wd.
The Unbeatable Traxxas Drive System
Taking a look inside the chassis of the Traxxas Slash reveals a drive train that is superior to those found in most operators' actual cars. The stunningly blue anodized center drive shaft is extruded from a single piece of heavy-duty aluminum, making it the toughest, lightest, and most reliable in the industry.
The universal joint telescoping drive shafts are also built to be tough in the harshest of conditions. No amount of rough driving can keep these shafts from doing their job, and the excellent handling of the vehicle is also influenced greatly by these shafts, which allow maximum movement for the vehicle's suspension.
Additional Traxxas Drive System Features
- Revo-Spec Differentials featuring silicone gaskets
- The most efficient power handling in the industry
- Revo-Spec Slipper Clutch dissipates heat and is adjusted easily when needed
- 32 Pitch gears for maximum power and up-gradability
- Traxxas logo on center drive shaft
- Tough Tires On The Traxxas
The Traxxas Slash 4×4 comes standard with four officially licensed BFGoodrich Mud Terrain tires, which are about as heavy-duty as a person can get on a short course truck. These tires give the Slash an appearance inspired by the top full-size racing trucks which is sure to intimidate competitors. The rubber from which they are made is designed for maximum grip, and the tires also feature the BFGoodrich logo in true-to-life white lettering.
Special models like the Scott Douglas and Mike Oberg Edition trucks feature Kumho Road Venture MT tires, which are what those drivers use on the TORC circuit. The Kumhos are designed with same exacting standards as the BFGoodrich tires, and they feature the company's logo in a cool raised design.
The Traxxas Slash Chassis Is All That And Then Some
The Slash 4×4 features a newly redesigned chassis which is completely different from any other in the industry. Because this short course RC truck includes four wheel drive, the Velineon power system, and the capacity to even include the Mamba Monster, the chassis has to be tough enough to remain rigid and straight under the most taxing circumstances.
Inside the chassis, ribs are integrated into a triangulated structure which allows for maximum strength and durability while eliminating any extra, unnecessary weight. The outer portion of the chassis is designed for minimum drag so that the vehicle runs smooth and fast, and it is engineered to prevent buildup of brush and debris when traveling through the most harsh conditions.
High clearance is also provided by the chassis, making the truck easy to navigate through the most difficult to maneuver terrain. Because of this, getting the Traxxas Slash 4×4 hung up on anything is next to impossible. Additionally, the chassis is balanced exactly right so that the truck handles turns, jumps, and other obstacles with ease.
What do Others Say About the Slash 4×4?
I have been an avid RC car enthusiast for ages. Let me tell you, going from store bought RC cars, to hobby shop style, I have been missing out! Got mine the end of Jan with my tax return for myself, and my sons future toy as well. Worth every penny! You take it out of the box, charge the battery (I had extra lying around), hook it up and take off! The 4WD makes it the ultimate toy! I have the "Ultimate edition / Greg Adler series" and I was taking it thru puddles, jumping ruts and ditches, and running it full out on the first run. The range of the 2.4 Ghz transmitter/receiver makes it out to about 300/400 yards, probably more! Don't hesitate, get it!
Traxxas 2.4GHz Technology
The Traxxas Slash features the absolute latest in 2.4GHz RC technology. Traxxas' proprietary computerized radio system features first-rate Direct Sequence Spread- Spectrum instrumentation, which is tops in the world of RC racing.
The best feature Traxxas offers in this category might just be their Link model recognition technology. This amazing tech allows operators to immediately start using whichever vehicle they want without having to spend valuable time programming or adjusting. This is great for expert RC enthusiasts who have multiple models they like to take out of the garage from time to time.
Year Round Fun With The Slash 4×4
Even though this high-performance vehicle includes many intricate parts and systems, users need not worry about damaging any of the trucks' components from exposure to the elements. This beast of an RC truck is able to go anywhere in any conditions, and it can even handle ice and snow. This is because all vital components are sealed in ultra tight waterproof enclosures. Even wires are routed through specially designed watertight seals for maximum protection. All components are safe from the elements, including the electronic speed control, receiver box, and steering servo. There are simply no limits on where or when this vehicle can be operated, provided the battery is charged, of course.
Traxxas Slash 4×4 Features Modular Design For Easy Maintenance
Traxxas has obviously spent a great deal of time on engineering this little beast to be the best, even when it is in for a pit stop. Because of the company's modular construction and design, the Slash can be worked on with ease. Four wheel RC trucks are not usually known for being easy to service. In fact, most models make maintenance prohibitively difficult. Traxxas gets around these issues by allowing users to remove the front section in its entirety with only five screws. Only four screws must be removed for access to the rear section. This means that operators can get inside the chassis for adjustment and maintenance in less than a minute.
Additional Awesome Features On The Slash 4×4
- High-current connectors for zero loss of power
- Maxx Cable 12-Gauge wire for maximum energy conductivity
- Rust-resistant Hex hardware for durability and ease of maintenance
- Ultra Shocks which are oil-filled for high performance handling
- Motor is accessible by removing a single screw
- Progressive springs for tremendously durable handling
Traxxas Slash 4×4 – Ready To Go Out Of The Box
This awesome short course racing machine is literally ready to race as soon as its removed from its packaging. It comes fully assembled so users need not spend precious time reading manuals and putting components together. All systems are adjusted to be race-ready, and even the decals come pre-attached.
You've Heard the Pro's What are the Con's?
As with many RTR short course trucks the Slash 4×4 requires a set of sway bars. These will really help with cornering.
Battery recharge times are very slow with the supplied wall charger. Invest in an EZ peak charger, this will greatly reduce recharge times. If you invest in another battery you can almost have continuous running as the recharge times just about equal the run times.
It has been noted that some find setup instructions a little over-whelming. Yes they can be a bit hard to follow but it is unnecessary to follow them to get yourself going. The truck is ready to run out of the box. Charge the battery and drive it first.
Summing Up The Slash
The Traxxas Slash 4×4 is a serious machine, and it is unlike anything a person could ever find at a big box retail store. For those who are interested in a high quality short course racing truck with four wheel drive and a powerful transmission, they need look no further than this little monster of a truck. The Slash is built to last, and it almost dares users to give it abuse. Simply put, there is no finer RC racing truck on the market than the Traxxas Slash 4×4.
If you're debating with yourself whether or not to go with the 4×4, stop it. Immediately. The added control and handling makes this baby well worth the extra cash. Not only will you be able to corner faster, drive over rougher terrain, and crash less, you'll be able to hit bigger jumps with ease. The distribution of weight and power has the added affect of increased stability in the air. It stays perfectly level in midair and feels more akin to it's real life counterpart. The 2WD Slash is fun in it's own way, but if you're serious about getting into this amazingly fun hobby, go with the 4×4. One more thing worth mentioning. To the 2WD's credit, the lack of a driveshaft and it's components make it slightly more durable over time. Be prepared to get your hands dirty with the 4×4. The parts are cheap and it's very simple to disassemble, but it does require some effort.
Where Can I get the Best Price Online?
Right now you can get a good deal on the Traxxas Slash 4×4 at Amazon.
What makes Amazons price so good, is it includes shipping. There are a couple of good online hobby shops offering similar prices to amazon but there freight charges end up making the deal unattractive. Go and see Amazons deal on the Traxxas Slash 4×4

- 08 Dec 2010Five teachers rescued from kidnappers
- 28 Dec 2010Much more to do: BB remembered for women's rights fight
- 23 Dec 2010Police recover kidnapped sisters
MULTAN: In the past ten days Rajanpur Police have recovered five women during different raids in Rajanpur. Police officials recently recovered a kidnapped 32-year-old woman with her one-and-a-half-year-old child from Rajanpur. Police officials said that they conducted a raid on a house in the district after receiving an anonymous phone call.
The woman, Shazia*, was handcuffed and had been tortured. Speaking to The Express Tribune, the mother of two children said that about a year ago she had gone to General Hospital in Lahore with her husband for his treatment. "A lady named Shareefan met me and said that a Pir Baba named Amil could help cure any disease," Shazia said. Shazia told reporters that the Pir lived in Sadiqabad and she went with the nurse to visit him. "I wanted an amulet that could cure my husband's abdominal pain," she said.
Shazia said that the nurse had actually taken her to the Pir to sell her. "My younger son was with me, he was only five-months-old at the time," she said. Shazia told the police that the Amil gave her something to eat and she fainted. "When I woke up, I found myself tied with seventeen other women in a forest. They told me that I had been sold for Rs50,000 and that we were being transported," Shazia said.
Shazia told the police that she was later separated from the group and sold to a family for Rs160,000 in Kashmore. "The family kept me locked up in a room for several days but then they sold me again to someone in Rajanpur," she said, adding that the family told her she was being sold for marriage.
"A man named Shah Gul bought me for Rs2.5m and married me to his son Mukhtar," she said, adding "I kept telling them that I was already married and that I had children but they wouldn't listen." "They treated me worse than an animal, they tied me up, whipped me and raped me," she said.
Shazia said that she had tried to escape several times but was caught and then her captors finally broke her legs. "They made sure I couldn't walk anymore," she said.
Shazia said that during the floods she managed to escape because her captor's house was flooded and she was moved outside.
"I hid with a family in Rajanpur and there were so many displaced people that I thought they wouldn't be able to find me again. I was wrong," she said.
Shazia said that she heard reports that her captor Mukhtar had threatened the owner of the house with murder if they did not hand her over. "Mukhtar then took me back to the forest and handcuffed me. He said that we would slice my son to pieces if I tried to escape again," she said.
Shazia said that many women had been kidnapped and sold several times over in this manner. "There is an open auction for women in shelters near the forest at night. Dozens of abducted women are sold off," she said.
Multan Station House Officer (SHO) Bakht Ali said that he had arrested Shah Gul and was interrogating him about the whereabouts of the other women as well as the location of Mukhtar. Shah Gul said "I do not know about all the others but this girl is my property. I paid for her in Rajanpur and she belongs to me," he said, adding "If the police take her away they should compensate my loss."
In the past ten days Rajanpur Police have recovered five women during different raids. The women had all been sold from different parts of the country in midnight auctions. Police had handed over Shazia and her son to a Dar-ul-Amaan.

What leakage rate is possible to achieve?
Is it economical to try to achieve a level below 5%?
What do you think is the minimum accepted level of leakages?
Why don't we just do leakage detection ourselves?
Is it a good idea to just do the worst?
What is a normal leakage rate?
Most surveys show a leakage rate of between 20-30% of the produced air. We have examples of up to 70% leakages but very seldom below 10%. In facilities where the compressors run continuously people forget that leakages also leak continuously. In fact it will often leak more during non production hours as the pressure in the system is then generally higher.
How long does it take to survey a plant?
LeekSeek™ will on average cover 7,000 m2 (75,000 sqft) of production area per day but that also includes documentation time. This is a general rule of thumb and is applicable on 80 % of most production facilities.
The time consuming factor is the documentation and recording of the parts that need to be either repaired or replaced. It is worth taking that time as it will greatly improve the logistics of the repair process. With more than 3000 projects behind us your local LeekSeek™ representative will be able to give you a very accurate estimate on the days required to survey your plant based on plants similar to yours.
What leakage rate is possible to achieve?
Below 5 % is a common result if the program is followed correctly. Some companies have become virtually leak free. Leakages re-appear relatively quickly through normal wear of equipment so an absolute leak free system is not realistic. It is interesting to compare the leakage rate of a compressed air system with a water or hydraulic system which is generally much lower. The reason of course is that the leakages become visible and leave a mess but it actually gives an indication as to what is possible. Who could live with a 20-30 % leakage rate of the hydraulic system? Due to the severe implications a leaking hydraulic system more money is spent on the quality of hose and couplings and a greater effort taken to eliminate leakages completely. Using the same philosophy on your compressed air system will provide significant improvements to the system. Using better couplings, material and methods may cost somewhat more but the savings make it easily justified.
Is it economical to try to achieve a level below 5%?
It really depends on the volume of air produced. For a paper mill a 5 % leakage rate could very well represent a significant volume and cost that would be economically justifiable to improve on. For a very small user a 10 % leakage rate may not warrant further improvements.
What do you think is the minimum accepted level of leakages?
The simplistic view on this is that if you have € 5000 in leakages which is equivalent 0,5 cbm per minute in leakages then you have € 5000 to spend to fix them. Some companies look at return on investment but others simply view leakages as a waste and a cost that needs to be eliminated and will accept that the required actions are cost neutral. The reality is that the minimum acceptable level of leakages is much lower than one would expect. The reason is simply that compressed air is so expensive that it is almost always cost effective to repair them. We recommend that you keep in mind that one 1 mm leakage is equivalent of € 700 so finding just a few will justify a survey and repair.
Why don't we just do leakage detection ourselves?
There is a short and a long answer to this question. The short answer is that it is not economical. If you included the cost of buying the ultra sonic equipment, the time it takes to learn how to use it, to set up a system for documentation, include your labour cost and the logistics of repairing the leakages then you will have exceeded the cost of a survey from an external source. In addition you have to take the following question into consideration, will you find as many leakages as a specialist? The problem with doing this yourself is that the margin for error is extremely small. Missing just a few leakages is the equivalent of the whole cost of the survey. LeekSeek™ technicians do nothing else but leakage detection and have years of experience on where to find leakages, how the ultra-sound equipment works and will survey a plant very quickly and efficiently. If they find as little as 3-4 more leakages than you would yourself, then the cost of the survey is easily justified. You would also have the survey fully documented and access to the leakage data on the web.
The long answer
is that it depends on what your objectives are and the size of your operation. The LeekSeek™ system is not just about detecting more leakages in shorter time. The LeekSeek™ system has been developed to address the most important issue of leakage detection which is that of repair. It has to be made clear that there is no money whatsoever to be saved in simply carrying out detection. Leakages have to be repaired quickly in order to achieve cost reductions. The problem of repair grows with the size of the operation. Many surveys reveal hundreds, sometimes thousands, of leakages and they are all associated with one form of remedial action or supply of parts. Without documentation and a system to handle this, the repair becomes either delayed, which costs money in the form of leakage cost per day, or as in most cases repairs will slide down the priority list and will not be completed. The LeekSeek™ system provides all the information you require for effective repair, such as the total remedial requirements, parts list by supplier and brand, priority leakages, volume and cost, location by department and workplace. If you don't have a system, this information is time consuming to obtain and causes problems and delays in the repair process. A plant does not have to be very big for this to become a problem. Most companies also under estimate the value of historical data. The LeekSeek™ system identifies the various problems that are the true causes of leakages so that you can take preventative action in order to avoid them. It may be certain brands, applications, methods or areas within the plant that have an above average leakage rate. Once these are identified and remedied the leakage rate will be decreased on a permanent basis. If this issue is not addressed you will never achieve a low leakage rate, you will simply return to the same level of leakages, time and time again which becomes a very expensive alternative. The whole objective of the LeekSeek™ system is to reduce the leakages on a permanent basis to the minimum accepted level of leakages and a managed situation. This is by far a more economical alternative as you will not only have a lower leakage rate, it will ultimately require less leakage detection and less replacement of parts.
Is it a good idea to just do the worst?
It is never a bad idea to find and repair leakages. However, even if you do a very good job, the value of the remaining leakages will still justify a survey and then you might as well use an outside source to do the complete survey to begin with. The possible savings in labour you have in doing the worst yourself is quickly consumed by the costs you incur in the repair process compared to using an outside source and doing it faster and more efficiently. Secondly, unless you document well, you will fail to register vital information that will lead to technical improvements.

One of my few advance bookings, Hotel Gallia was a nice, if over-priced hotel. It is decently located between the Colisseum and Termini station, which was the reason I chose it before I left the States. The staff was very helpful, even with me creating a key ring fiasco.
Unique Quality: The rooftop terrace has a wonderful view of Santa Maria Maggiore and the breakfasts were very good, for Italian standards (i.e. a good choice of fruit, breads, coffes, and juices)

Android developer earning $13k a month from his Car Locator app. Not too shabby.
Tagged: mobile Toggle Comment Threads | Keyboard Shortcuts
Sad reading this letter from Palm's CEO about the worse than expected sales of Palm products. I like my Palm Pre, webOS is excellent but it's hard to explain why I've gone back to an iPhone 3G. The iPhone 3G is frustrating mainly due to its lack of multi-tasking (copying and pasting a URL from an email into a tweet is dead easy on the Palm Pre, a Pain In The Arse on an iPhone.) The Palm Pre is a better phone too. But the iPhone has better apps (better games mainly) and much of my professional work has been around the iPhone in the past year. It's scale is hard to argue with, a river you are mad to swim against. webOS represents a better mobile model than iPhone OS in my opinion but Apple executes everything else better. Colleagues just like the iPhone better and those willing to think more tend to pick Android phones as they are geeks and Android is still a geek's wet dream. Palm the company has to do better if they expect to beat the iPhone. They can't just make a lovely OS.
Odd, I tend to reboot my iPhone every now and then. Games especially cause memory issues.
Initial impressions of the Windows Phone 7 Series user interface. Abstract. Slick. Unique. Confusing. Where are the 3rd party apps going to go? It shouldn't need labels saying "Tap to search." That is bad-UI smell. It is a bold UI move from Microsoft. I hope it works, the iPhone needs competitors to improve.
Get Google Voice working in Ireland using a bit of proxying and Skype.
Ignore Apple shacking up with Microsoft Bing in rivalry with Google. The story for my ears is the skunk-works Apple search project coupled with Apple's recent advertising company acquisition and the many mobile Apple devices (iPhone, iTouch and possibly iTablet) ready to switch their default search provider. It comes right at the end of this Gruber post.
"The Palm team should do the software and Motorola's engineers, the hardware" sounds like a decent idea to me.
Imam Nirwan
is motorolla was developed a palm phone?
Verizon is allowing the Palm Pre to be a WiFi hotspot (ala MiFi) for up to 5 connections. Very nice, hope O2 Ireland follow suit.
Gruber is going to love that 46% of the Japanese smart-phone market is now owned by the iPhone. And so many analysts said the East thought American designed mobile-phones were backwards and dysfunctional.

The opinion, written by Justice Thomas McHugh, said lawyers' use of "creative methods" to get the court to hear an appeal has increased since December 2010. That is when the court began to issue a full opinion or a short memorandum decision in every single case before it. But, McHugh warned, "nothing has changed as to the professional responsibility of lawyers to proceed only on meritorious issues."
The second problem the court tried to address Monday seems to be general sloppiness from some members of the bar.
"We're seeing a lot of appeals - numerous appeals - where there's no citation of legal authority for the argument and where there is just mere skeleton argument, where the argument is just thrown together haphazard and where the appendix record is not done properly," Ketchum said.
The justices are particularly keen on having a proper appendix in briefs. The index helps them and their clerks go through the often-lengthy court records to find key information on the case.
Some lawyers do this well, Ketchum said.
"But if it's all thrown in a box and we have to go through the whole box trying to figure out what they are doing, it wastes hours and hours and hours of time," Ketchum said.
Other problems include "cutting and pasting" of material from lower court filings that don't meet the standards used by the Supreme Court and "rambling" arguments.
At least a few of the court's concerns are directed specifically at lawyers who work on behalf of children. Among the concerns, these court-appointed legal guardians are doing "repeated late filings."
The court also expressed concern about briefs in abuse and neglect cases that do not give updated information on the children's status. The court also said some briefs are being filed without the appropriate effort to remove sensitive information.
