The Fundamentals of Good Behavior
more important than any mere dictum of etiquette is the fundamental code of honor, without strict observance of which no man, no matter how polished, can be considered a gentleman. The honor of a gentleman demands the inviolability of his word, and the incorruptibility of his principles; he is the descendant of the knight, the crusader; he is the defender of the defenseless, and the champion of justiceor he is not a gentleman.
A gentleman does not, and a man who aspires to be one must not, ever borrow money from a woman, nor should he, except in unexpected circumstances, borrow money from a man. Money borrowed without security is a debt of honor which must be paid without fail and promptly as possible. The debts incurred by a deceased parent, brother, sister, or grown child, are assumed by honorable men and women, as debts of honor.
A gentleman never takes advantage of a woman in a business dealing, nor of the poor or the helpless.
One who is not well off does not sponge, but pays his own way to the utmost of his ability.
One who is rich does not make a display of his money or his possessions. Only a vulgarian talks ceaselessly about how much this or that cost him.
A very well-bred man intensely dislikes the mention of money, and never speaks of it (out of business hours) if he can avoid it.
A gentleman never discusses his family affairs either in public or with acquaintances, nor does he speak more than casually about his wife. A man is a cad who tells anyone, no matter who, what his wife told him in confidence, or describes what she looks like in her bedroom. To impart details of her beauty is scarcely better than to publish her blemishes; to do either is unspeakable.
Nor does a gentleman ever criticise the behavior of a wife whose conduct is scandalous. What he says to her in the privacy of their own apartments is no ones affair but his own, but he must never treat her with disrespect before their children, or a servant, or any one.
A man of honor never seeks publicly to divorce his wife, no matter what he believes her conduct to have been; but for the protection of his own name, and that of the children, he allows her to get her freedom on other than criminal grounds. No matter who he may be, whether rich or poor, in high life or low, the man who publicly besmirches his wifes name, besmirches still more his own, and proves that he is not, was not, and never will be, a gentleman.
No gentleman goes to a ladys house if he is affected by alcohol. A gentleman seeing a young man who is not entirely himself in the presence of ladies, quietly induces the youth to depart. An older man addicted to the use of too much alcohol, need not be discussed, since he ceases to be asked to the houses of ladies.
A gentleman does not lose control of his temper. In fact, in his own self-control under difficult or dangerous circumstances, lies his chief ascendancy over others who impulsively betray every emotion which animates them. Exhibitions of anger, fear, hatred, embarrassment, ardor or hilarity, are all bad form in public. And bad form is merely an action which jars the sensibilities of others. A gentleman does not show a letter written by a lady, unless perhaps to a very intimate friend if the letter is entirely impersonal and written by some one who is equally the friend of the one to whom it is shown. But the occasions when the letter of a woman may be shown properly by a man are so few that it is safest to make it a rule never to mention a womans letter.
A gentleman does not bow to a lady from a club window; nor according to good form should ladies ever be discussed in a mans club!
A man whose social position is self-made is apt to be detected by his continual cataloguing of prominent names. Mr. Parvenu invariably interlards his conversation with, When I was dining at the Bobo Gildings; or even at Lucy Gildings, and quite often accentuates, in his ignorance, those of rather second-rate, though conspicuous position. I was spending last week-end with the Richan Vulgars, or My great friends, the Gotta Crusts. When a so-called gentleman insists on imparting information, interesting only to the Social Register,
shun him!
The born gentleman avoids the mention of names exactly as he avoids the mention of what things cost; both are an abomination to his soul.
A gentlemans manners are an integral part of him and are the same whether in his dressing-room or in a ballroom, whether in talking to Mrs. Worldly or to the laundress bringing in his clothes. He whose manners are only put on in company is a veneered gentleman, not a real one.
A man of breeding does not slap strangers on the back nor so much as lay his finger-tips on a lady. Nor does he punctuate his conversation by pushing or nudging or patting people, nor take his conversation out of the drawing-room! Notwithstanding the advertisements in the most dignified magazines, a discussion of underwear and toilet articles and their merit or their use, is unpleasant in polite conversation.
All thoroughbred people are considerate of the feelings of others no matter what the station of the others may be. Thackerays climber who licks the boots of those above him and kicks the faces of those below him on the social ladder, is a very good illustration of what a gentleman is
A gentleman never takes advantage of anothers helplessness or ignorance, and assumes that no gentleman will take advantage of him.
These words have been literally sprinkled through the pages of this book, yet it is doubtful if they convey a clear idea of the attributes meant.
Unconsciousness of self is not so much unselfishness as it is the mental ability to extinguish all thought of ones selfexactly as one turns out the light.
Simplicity is like it, in that it also has a quality of self-effacement, but it really means a love of the essential and of directness. Simple people put no trimmings on their phrases, nor on their manners; but remember, simplicity is not crudeness nor anything like it. On the contrary, simplicity of speech and manners means language in its purest, most limpid form, and manners of such perfection that they do not suggest manner at all.
The instincts of a lady are much the same as those of a gentleman. She is equally punctilious about her debts, equally averse to pressing her advantage; especially if her adversary is helpless or poor.
As an unhappy wife, her dignity demands that she never show her disapproval of her husband, no matter how publicly he slights or outrages her. If she has been so unfortunate as to have married a man not a gentleman, to draw attention to his behavior would put herself on his level. If it comes actually to the point where she divorces him, she discusses her situation, naturally, with her parents or her brother or whoever are her nearest and wisest relatives, but she shuns publicity and avoids discussing her affairs with any one outside of her immediate family. One can not too strongly censure the unspeakable vulgarity of the woman so unfortunate as to be obliged to go through divorce proceedings, who confides the private details of her life to reporters.
Nothing so blatantly proclaims a woman climber as the repetition of prominent names, the owners of which she must have struggled to know. Otherwise, why so eagerly boast of the achievement? Nobody cares whom she knowsnobody that is, but a climber like herself. To those who were born and who live, no matter how quietly, in the security of a perfectly good ledge above and away from the social ladders rungs, the evidence of one frantically climbing and trying to vaunt her exalted position is merely ludicrous.
All thoroughbred women, and men, are considerate of others less fortunately placed, especially of those in their employ. One of the tests by which to distinguish between the woman of breeding and the woman merely of wealth, is to notice the way she speaks to dependents. Queen Victorias duchesses, those great ladies of grand manner, were the very ones who, on entering the house of a close friend, said How do you do, Hawkins? to a butler; and to a sister duchesss maid, Good morning, Jenkins. A Maryland lady, still living on the estate granted to her family three generations before the Revolution, is quite as polite to her friends servants as to her friends themselves. When you see a woman in silks and sables and diamonds speak to a little errand girl or a footman or a scullery maid as though they were the dirt under her feet, you may be sure of one thing; she hasnt come a very long way from the ground herself.

JEFFERSON CITY -- A car crash in Jefferson City sent three people, including two children to the hospital on Wednesday night, as crowds were leaving the downtown-area after the fireworks show.
The crash happened at about 10:30 p.m. at the intersection of McCarty St. and Adams St.
Jefferson City Police said Amelia Arrington, 25, was driving a Malibu west on McCarty when she started to make a left turn onto Adams St. and was hit by Charles Durbin, 40, driving westbound in a Chevy Tahoe.
Ten people were in the Malibu, 7 of them were small children without car seats.
The Tahoe had 6 people in it, including Durbin, all of which were reportedly wearing seatbelts.
A 24-year-old rear seat passenger in the Malibu along with 2 of the 7 children in the rear seat were taken by ambulance to local hospitals for their injuries.
All were released a short time later.

About this item
'The Home Guards are an attacking force lying in wait for, and ready to destroy, and enemy who dares to set foot on out shores'. The Home Guard has been immortalised in British culture in the TV series "Dad's Army". Formed by men not eligible for active service - too old, too young, in reserved occupations vital to the war effort - who were expected to resist a German invasion with any resources they had to hand, the Home Guard is the embodiment of plucky British resolve against the odds.
The Home Guard Pocket-Book
evokes this spirit. Written by Brig-Gen Green, commanding 4th battalion, Sussex Home Guard and Training Advisor for the Sussex Zone, this book is based on his experience and, in his own words, 'is the result of my ransacking the dusty pigeon-holes of memory and the condensation of many books, official instructions and writings'. Its tone is informal and colloquial, such as: 'March discipline. Troops will always march off the parade ground at the Slope. As soon as this has been done the order 'March at Ease' should be given. When marching at ease the rifle may be carried in any way a soldier fancies'. Nevertheless, the book is full of sound advice on training, organisation and discipline, fire arms, reconnaissance and field engineering, the responsibilities of the Group Pigeon Officer, the proper position to adopt for surviving a dive bomb attack, and how to set a trap for an unwary advancing German cyclist!

Combined with the City of Calgary's $25 million commitment earlier this year, the grants mean that NMC is now officially on its way to realization as it continues to seek private donations to complete the vision.
Just over two years ago, CMLC initiated a national campaign for new ideas to celebrate the colourful history of the King Eddy and rejuvenate the hotel. While that search uncovered some unique ideas, none fit the vision of East Village quite as well as the National Music Centre that Cantos envisioned.

Backcountry skier (Picture BC photo)
Tranquility and unlimited powder awaits those willing to make the effort to climb into the alpine.
However, it's imperative that skiers have appropriate skills, equipment and avalanche training before embarking on a backcountry experience. For the inexperienced, the best option is to travel with a qualified guide.
Glacier National Park covers an area of 1,391sq km/537sq mi and lives up to its name with an abundance of glaciers and ice fields. At the centre of it all, the high elevation of Rogers Pass (1,323m/4,340ft), combined with relatively easy access by car and public transportation, makes it the perfect staging point for ski touring. Parks Canada operates two backcountry huts in the park.

The pass, at the crest of the Selkirk Range of the Columbia Mountains, is the recipient of so much snow and was the site of so many avalanches, that the initial Canadian Pacific Railway route over the pass had to be abandoned in favour of a tunnel under the summit.
The Rogers Pass Discovery Centre is open year-round except for a month in late fall. It's packed with fascinating displays that illustrate the history of the railway, the adventure tourism that it brought, and the natural history of the area. Glacier Park Lodge is conveniently located near the summit.
Snowmobiling is not permitted in the park.
Revelstoke Alpine Adventures offers a variety of programs from single day excursions to multi-day tours, including packages based at Glacier Park Lodge in Glacier National Park. Programs are custom-tailored for groups and individuals.
At an elevation of 1,920m/6,300ft, in the Monashee Range south of Revelstoke, Sol Mountain Touring provides comfortable lodge accommodation and a base from which to explore 12,000ha/30,000ac of powder-coated alpine terrain. Rates include the 15-minute helicopter flight from Cherryville, which is 200km/124mi from Revelstoke.
Note that winter driving conditions can be hazardous. Vehicles should be equipped with snow tires and carry chains.

Dry Horizons
Rising global temperatures mean drought is increasingly commonplace across the world. Farmers are seeing crop yields diminish as once-fertile lands dry up. This week we're out exploring innovative water-saving techniques in France, Israel and Peru.
We head to the west of France to speak to farmers using the 'dry farming' technique. The region is facing the lowest rainfall season in nearly twenty years.
In Israel's Negev desert, farmers are combating water scarcity by using salty water to grow tomatoes. Our Israel correspondent Gallagher Fenwick also came across a fish farm, where the owner thinks the desert conditions are perfect for breeding fish on a large scale.
And a Peruvian environmentalist has come up with a simple, but potentially genius idea, to revitalise the Peruvian glaciers. Eduardo Gold's project involves painting the mountains white so that solar energy is reflected back into space and the areas cools down. We check out the progress so far.

4 Bricklin's For Sale
About Bricklin
Bricklin produced just one vehicle in the company's short existence and while there were flaws in the car and the company's strategy as a whole, the Bricklin SV-1 is now regarded as a classic. In many ways, it was the forerunner to some successful models that followed from other brands. Produced between 1974 and 1976, those flaws were to swiftly contribute to its downfall.
Bricklin was the brainchild of its founder, Malcolm Bricklin, the American millionaire who founded Subaru in the United States. His vision was to build an exciting sports car that introduced a strong safety element, hence the name of his project, SV-1 – Safety vehicle one. Despite having a near six litre engine, there was a desire for economy as well as safety. This was intended to be a car that was fun to drive, while being safe and affordable to buy and run.
The safety features, therefore, included an integrated roll cage, 5 mph bumpers and side beams. Bricklin even had ashtrays and cigarette lighters removed to discourage smoking in the car and the end result was a safe vehicle, but as a sports car, it was disappointingly inefficient. The Bricklin SV-1 certainly looked the part and it owes its futuristic design to some TV Science Fiction of the 1970s. In 1972, Herb Grasse, the designer of the original Batmobile, designed three prototype, Bricklin style vehicles that he took to banks and potential investors. The cars became a joint venture between Grasse and the Bricklin Corporation and eventually, the first SV-1 rolled off the production line in 1974.
The most distinctive feature of the SV-1 is its gull wing doors that give it that futuristic look and feel. In that sense, it's almost a forerunner to the Delorean DMC-12, which came along a little later and was moderately more successful. In 1974, the very first year that the SV-1 was produced, 774 of the vehicles were made but already, the company was running into trouble. It seemed that while consumers loved the look of the car, drivers were already becoming disillusioned with performance that made it feel like an everyday saloon car to drive.
Moreover, the company quickly discovered that they couldn't produce vehicles fast enough to turn over any sort of profit. The company continued to produce in 1975 but in 1976, only a handful of cars made it off the production line before the Bricklin Corporation went into receivership. There was a brief 'stay of execution' for the car when the remaining spare parts were taken from the factory and produced as 1976 models by Consolidated Motors of Ohio, but when the parts ran out, so did the brief life of the Bricklin SV-1.
In the present day, the car is still that frustrating juxtaposition that is was in the 1970s. It's wonderful to look at but it isn't particularly great to drive. That hasn't stopped a healthy interest in the car, however, with an owners' club set up and with remaining models becoming rarer, prices are increasing all the time. In the end, this leaves the SV-1 with a mixed legacy, but nobody can deny that visually, this is a stunning car.

Lawmakers set to debate Branstad's education reforms
DES MOINES (AP) — Lawmakers in the state House are set to debate a scaled-back version of Gov. Terry Branstad's education reform plan.
Debate on the legislation was scheduled for Tuesday. Last week, Republicans in the House education committee approved a plan to water down Branstad's proposal. The revised proposal lets schools opt-out of Branstad's proposed minimum salary increases and leadership bonuses.
Branstad wanted to mandate that minimum teacher salaries go from $28,000 to $35,000. Under the House Republican proposal, the salary increases would be to $32,000 for districts that participate in the reform plan.

Stop in the name of....never mind. Brake upgrade time
So time for another chapter in the ongoing saga of our 1999 K2500 Chevrolet Suburban. You can follow the story so far in my other posts for engine, drive-train, etc.
Personally, I consider the GMT400 the pinnacle of Suburban development. It's as modern as need be but not hobbled with computerized everything, 87 airbags and delicate body parts you'd be afraid to break. No offense to other Suburban owners. That's just my preference. That said, I'll be the first to admit that as designed, out of the factory, the GMT400 has one glaring weakness. The brakes. The brakes are way to small for a vehicle this size and with this towing capacity. It's something I've always wanted to correct, but never had the opportunity and the cash at the same time.
However the time has come. Old faithful needs new brakes anyway and so I decided to turn it into an upgrade opportunity. I had avoided this until now because there aren't a lot of options other than big brake kits and those are not only expensive, but they require a lot of mods to the vehicle. Recently however, Power Stop came to my attention. They have a kit called the "1-Click Extreme Truck and Tow" front brake kit. This is a complete brake job in a box but with heavier duty, better components that exceed factory specs and improve braking power, reduce fade, fit in stock locations without modification. To top it off, they cost less than getting a factory brake job at the dealer.
The kit includes heavy duty, cross drilled and slotted rotors that are silver-zinc plated. You also receive a complete set of their Z36 Extreme Duty brake pads, and any necessary hardware (clips, retainers, etc.).
So I ordered the kit from Rock Auto for the stunningly cool price of $196.25 Canadian.
They should be installed by next Wednesday at the latest and I'll post a follow up comment with my thoughts on the beasties.
Until then, check it out.
FYI, this is the K1524-36 kit for a 1999 K2500 Suburban (ie 8-lug 4x4)

Where's the update? I have the same truck and I have the same kit to install on mine tonight...
09-07-2013, 06:04 AM #7Short answer. I love them. I'll never have lesser brakes on my vehicles again.
Now. Make sure you follow the directions and bed them properly. Also you'll need to supply your own tube of anti-squeal.
Also you'll need to be attentive while driving for a few days as your vehicle's brake feel, and stopping distances will change. Your deceleration curve will be completely different, in a good way.
Other than that enjoy.
- - - Updated - - -
Oh and wait until you try them in the wet!
As long as your tires are good and don't hydroplane they are almost impervious to water. The brake pads themselves never hydroplane or steamplane (I made that word up but I think you know what I mean by it).

Online and in line ticket brokers' job is to buy more tickets and allow them to do business of selling tickets for concerts, sports events, shows and theatres from all over the world. A ticket broker makes money by buying tickets then reselling them. It allows them to take control of the ticket supply and charge more than its price.
Ticket brokerages have a group of ticket buyers for a certain event. These buyers stand in line at the ticket booth or even use the internet to buy tickets online. They then deliver the tickets to the broker who resells them through a website or personally with a huge mark up. There are cases when people cannot find tickets to a certain event; they do not have a choice but to buy to the ticket brokers. These brokers has all the means that they need to purchase more tickets and buy them fast than any individual.
For some people, ticket brokers provide a valuable service because they fall in line and buy tickets for people who do not have the time to camp outside the ticket booth in order to get tickets for a concert or a sport event. They spend their time falling in line in the hot sun or cold weather just to get tickets. This will prevent a concert goer or a sports enthusiast to absent himself/herself from work just to get tickets for that particular event. Many people believed that ticket brokers play an important role in the ticket buying process because if you really want to watch a concert and could not afford to wait in line outside the ticket booth, you can just call them and buy tickets from them. If there are no ticket brokers, chances are you cannot watch that event.
Having them help you with tickets give you an instant access to those hard to get ticket events like those of popular shows and games because tickets in this shows sell like a hot potato. Buying tickets from them will give you the best seat in the event. You can choose your location and get the best view. It is convenient to buy from them because more often than not tickets to popular shows and events are sold out months before the actually show begins. Brokers offer tickets in advance and you will get to buy the tickets even it is close to the actual date of the event.
Whatever your opinion about the ticket brokers, the thing is if you are unable to get tickets for concerts, theatres, and sports or your favorite events, you can always have it by calling them. The next time you and your friends plan to watch concerts, or attend sports and other events, all you have to do is to call a ticket broker to help you have the tickets that you really want.

Cap all -- -- -- tumbled trade below 500 dollars this morning for the first time.
Eleven months as investors worry about slap iPhone 5 demand back up over that level now but.
Is now the time to -- Daniel Ernst of Hudson square research joins us with his take.
Daniel what do you say we have a rare opportunity by animus that -- we've had.
I think 1520%.
Type corrections and apple in the last five years and each one of them -- proved to be Andrea -- buys stock.
I tend not to look quite -- short term if you look at the five year track record.
Revenues are up sixfold.
Earnings are up eleven fold just this last year.
Revenues -- 45% earnings grew 60%.
Yes and he treated fourteen point 75 times the issues are -- 7%.
-- ago fifteen point two -- it ten times.
Earnings are forty -- almost instant discount.
The S&P -- say.
Is apple below average -- they actually a company that's worse than the average company in the S and -- happened they have inferior products and having nuclear balance sheet and fear growth prospects me it's old friends and now the Russians appear.
Company on average isn't yet they treated a significant discount to get attempting to.
And yet.
The stock in September was at 700 dollars and nobody was taken -- -- recommendations off then it fell to the 500 dollar level.
Are we talking a problem more now all the emotions that math because on the price earnings multiple basis of very cheap stock but maybe it's lost -- -- -- buff.
Yeah I think that's definitely true mean for years less with less for five years despite the fact that they were growing very large and they get in the got very big -- actually work.
Accelerating growth.
But now we're at the point really doing you know fifty billion dollars for revenue in the quarter -- five years ago they did 24 billion dollars -- entire year.
Right so they're starting to get that the law of large numbers finally -- catching up apples and I think people -- kind of readjusting.
-- activity to the you know that the growth rate but it it still tremendous growth relative to.
A large cap company -- still innovating more than most countries you can Google over the last five years.
Stocks actually flat -- Apple's up -- 60% rate even over the course of the year after the you know that the movements have a 500 apple was still a top forming large cap stock.
Still I I think that you know it's a lot more volatile than their earnings.
Growth has been the stock.
It's a lot more volatile than their innovations victory has been so I think that it.
Apple investors have to stomach a certain degree of volatility yeah I think at the end of the year you -- had.
Well a lot of people doing you know listened to bill tax just a profit selling because capital gains from going up and don't in most people were invested in apple were up.
-- with the stock -- at 505 dollar range it hits this kind of nice support level because it's apparently.
Got a note on this this morning a 50% retracement from the highest seven watered down to a recent low in 2011 of like three tenors something.
But if it ends up closing below 500 dollars on one of these days does that stocks suddenly psychologically help to fall down like 450 before finds new support.
I mean I'm not typical -- the clear -- -- praise all along -- I look at it as.
Over the next five years our consumers can be using more apple products.
Or less.
Will apple be innovating more or less.
And I think that the opportunity that apple has -- into the market you know we did our first college survey nine years ago.
Apple had something like 12% share which was four times the rate that they had.
In their bitten national average today to have a 60% share of these college kids that we survey every year.
They're tomorrow CIO's and so we're not even in the corporate market place yet for from Mac and so I think there's still up require opportunity whether -- apple comes out with a S mar iPhone -- bigger iPhone -- cheaper iPhone.
You know paid more powerful live -- -- doesn't really matter right to consistently innovating.
Did you unit of very high margin keep high quality products to keep the high quality management team I think it's an opportunity you know -- -- And where -- they go on the new products I wanna guarantee that what happened within a week or two -- -- just bought the most recent one that is now outdated thanks for being with us today Daniel -- question about huts is -- okay.

Marlborough Mayor buoyed by visit to Gambian community
2:00pm Monday 30th April 2012 in News
Mayor of Marlborough Alexander Kirk Wilson has returned from a week in the town's link community of Gunjur in West Africa.
He stayed with a host family during the visit, which was arranged by Marlborough Brandt Group.
The mayor, who paid the costs of his visit, said: "Gunjur – the village in the Gambia with which the Marlborough Brandt Group has had a 30-year association – is a remarkable place.
"Although a village, it is four times the size of Marlborough with some 30,000 inhabitants. It has no mains electricity or piped water.
"Almost everyone lives in a 'compound', maybe the size of half a football pitch, bounded by a six-foot wall, and containing a well and perhaps three bungalows.
"Where I lived, my host Boyo lived with his two wives, 11 of his 14 children (four of them adopted from other family members), an uncle and some other dependents."
Brandt Group president Dr Nick Maurice and chairman Anna Quarrendon were also among the visiting party.
Coun Kirk Wilson said: "Dr Maurice is held in enormously high regard in Gunjur as what the group has achieved over the years has been remarkable.
"Classrooms have been built, girls' education promoted, healthcare improved and maternal and childhood mortality greatly improved.
"Some thousands of Gambians have come to the UK for technical training – and only a handful have absconded – and thousands of UK volunteers have worked in the village."
The mayor said the latest Marlborough group to visit Gunjur went to reinforce existing relationships, but also to welcome the UK High Commissioner, David Morley, who visited the village to inspect projects in progress.
Coun Kirk Wilson said: "Our week was very busy, as we had to call on and pay our respects to the village headman or Alkalo, the headwoman or Nyansimba, and the Imam, who holds a high place in society, the village being 90 per cent Muslim.
"We attended a number of meetings of the bodies at that end managing the link, and Dr Maurice was called on to adjudicate on a squabble between them.
"We attended a 'naming ceremony' – equivalent to a christening here but with 1,000 guests and with a marquee in the road. There are no road closures in Gunjur."

A wonderful lakeside hotel about 10 to 15 minutes by car outside of Konstanz (Constance), on the shore of the Bodensee. Our third floor room had a balcony looking across the lake to Switzerland, and a gabled, open beamed ceiling. It was a welcome, peaceful alternative to the hustle and bustle of the hotels in Konstanz, being a bit off... More
