Customer Reviews
Serves it purpose as a connector.
By:Leo L. , Homeowner (CA)
Can also be used as power feed!
This L connector can also server as a live power feed. There is a knockout in the elbow and screw terminals inside, very similar to the I-Straight Line Power Connector. I wish I had known this before I spent all that time measuring and cutting my box track layout to fit the I-Connector. Plus I would have saved the cost of the I-Connector. By:M. D. , Homeowner (Ocean, NJ)
Does the Job
I used two of these connectors in my installation. They look fine and do the job. By:Burt , Homeowner (Morganton NC)

GREENVILLE, S.C. - Bobby Lamb says he will resign as Furman head coach after the Paladins' season finale.
Four of the five area teams that entered the high school football playoffs are still alive, but this week's challenging second round contests might mean the end of the road for some teams.
ALLEN PARK, Mich. - Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford has an appointment with well-known sports Dr. James Andrews.
AUBURN, Ala. - ESPN is reporting on its website that Auburn quarterback Cam Newton and his father each had a phone conversation with a Mississippi State recruiter that acknowledged a pay-for-play arrangement for the prized recruit.

STATESBORO - Robert Brown scored on a 4-yard run to give Georgia Southern a 21-14 overtime win Saturday over Appalachian State, snapping the Mountaineers' 26-game winning streak in Southern Conference play.
AUBURN, Ala. - Auburn has had "no contact whatsoever" with a man who allegedly tried to secure payment from Mississippi State during the recruitment of Tigers quarterback and Heisman Trophy hopeful Cam Newton, according to a person familiar with the situation.

The Charlotte City Council gave tentative approval Friday to a plan that would provide $143.75 million to keep the Carolina Panthers in Charlotte for the next 15 years.
The bulk of the money $125 million would go toward upgrades at Bank of America Stadium, the uptown home of the team since 1996. Other money would go toward stadium maintenance and paying for traffic control on game days.
The vote came after a three-hour closed door session by the City Council, including a talk with Panthers owner Jerry Richardson.
Richardson declined to offer specifics on the teams request with reporters, saying only that the process is continuing.
He also tried to deflect questions of the Panthers ever leaving the city.
I never would want our team to move somewhere else, he said.
The new deal would help to fulfill Richardsons goal, at least for the near future. In exchange for money, the team must agree to not leave Charlotte for 15 years. That would keep the Panthers in Charlotte through the 2027 season.
In announcing the deal, Mayor Anthony Foxx said the Panthers have been valuable for the region, and have helped give residents a sense of unity.
If we had not made this decision and at some point in the future, the team had been sold and moved away we would feel that loss, Foxx said. We would feel it economically. We would feel it from the standpoint of the psychology of success this community has enjoyed over many years.
The deal hinges on state lawmakers agreeing to a 1 percent increase in the food and beverage tax levied in the city, as well as the state chipping in $62.5 million in aid toward the stadium upgrades. Some legislative leaders have indicated it would be a difficult fight.
The City Council also would have to give final approval to any deal in open session later this spring.
On Friday, council approved the plan in private session by a vote of 9-1, according to a source in the room. Republican Warren Cooksey was the lone no vote, while Mayor Pro Tem Patrick Cannon was recused because of a possible conflict.
City could sue
The Carolina Panthers have been considering upgrades to the 17-year-old Bank of America Stadium for some time.
Limited details have been released on what the upgrades would entail, but it could include adding escalators to the upper bowl and improvements to video boards.
Some city leaders began signaling last fall that they would be open to considering public money for the upgrades and directed staff to initiate discussions with the Panthers.
Talks about city aid picked up last month. In mid-January, the council endorsed money for the stadium by a 7-2 vote.
In addition to the cost for upgrading the stadium, the deal would have the city and Panthers each contribute $15 million toward stadium maintenance $1 million a year for 15 years. In addition, the city would spend $3.75 million through 2027 to direct traffic on game days.
The team also would agree to provide the stadium rent-free for the annual Belk Bowl and up to four other events.
City Attorney Bob Hagemann said he believes the citys 15-year deal is strong. If the team attempts to leave before the lease is finished, it allows the city to sue the Panthers. The jurisdiction would be North Carolina state courts.
Hagemann said Richardson depressed the value of the franchise by agreeing to a 15-year tether.
The team had the ability to move at any time, potentially making the franchise more valuable to a potential buyer.
Plan A, B and C
The crux of the stadium plan rests on an increase to the sales tax levied in Charlotte. The hike would raise the total sales tax on food and beverages to 9.25 percent.
The city has proposed that the tax hike end after 30 years, although the City Council could vote to repeal the tax at any time.
The citys plan is to pay the debt off in 15 years. The tax is expected to raise $20 million a year, and would likely grow annually, barring a steep recession
Hagemann said there would likely be additional money left over. The tentative plan is to allow that money to be spent to help the hospitality industry, possibly with projects such as renovating Bojangles Coliseum to attract amateur sports.
The tax money couldnt be used for projects such as the streetcar, under the proposal.
Fridays vote helped to clear one hurdle in getting public money for the stadium upgrades. But now city and team leaders must persuade state leaders to go along.
It could be tough. N.C. House Speaker Thom Tillis, a Republican from Cornelius, has said he couldnt support using state tax dollars directly for the renovation project. But he left the door open to supporting a local tax hike to help the effort. Tillis couldnt be reached for comment Friday.
House Majority Leader Edgar Starnes of Hickory said last month he wasnt sure the chamber would support an increase in the sales tax.
It is unclear how quickly the Panthers proposal could come up for a vote in the General Assembly. But a vote against the tax would be a problem for local officials.
When asked if the city had other alternatives if the state rejects the tax hike, Foxx said: This is Plan A, B and C.

Redwood Shores, Calif. – Interested in volunteering, giving or interning with a great local charity? GreatNonprofits.org released today its first consolidated list of user-reviewed non-profits in Ossining, which Patch.com readers can use to discover top-rated charities to give or work with on issues they care about.
"Local giving and volunteering has exploded in recent years," says Perla Ni, the CEO of GreatNonprofits, which published the list. GreatNonprofits is the leading site for non-profit reviews by volunteers, donors, and clients alike. "Like Shop local, eat local, people now want to get involved with local nonprofits. People are increasingly interested in making meaningful connections in their own neighborhoods and communities."
Check out this list to find a great non-profit around Ossining.
This list only contains charities within 10 miles of Ossining, but you can expand it to include non-profits up to 50 miles away, or you can sort through them by issue and user rating. If your favorite charity is missing from the list, you can create a page for it on GreatNonprofits.org. Then you can write and post a review about it, helping others discover the organization and contribute to this great community resource.

It is also a great way to find out about volunteer, internship, and job opportunities at local charities.
"It's so rewarding for people to discover on-the-ground, maybe lesser-known non-profits doing great work in their own communities," said Ni. "Getting involved, volunteering or interning with local charities can be a terrific experience, because non-profits need and appreciate the help. You can get substantive responsibilities and hone real-world skills. And you'll be able to make a difference and see it in your own community!"

Chatting on Facebook with Los Gatos Patch this week, Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak said he expected to "have bad reactions" to the new biopic film "Jobs" based on the life of his friend the late Steve Jobs.
The Woz said he hadn't seen the movie yet in which actor Ashton
Kutcher portrays Jobs, Wozniak's closest associate in the 1980s when the two
began the personal computer revolution.
The Woz, Los Gatos' most famous celebrity, said he had tickets to the midnight
showing of the movie tonight at the Westfield Oakridge Mall in San
Jose and didn't want to answer questions right after seeing it.
"I expect to have bad reactions and want to keep them inside until I sleep
on them. 24-hour rule," he told this editor on Facebook.
An article on Vanity Fair said
Woz has been critical of a movie trailer he had seen, firing off an e-mail to
Gizmodo complaining about inaccuracies in the footage.
The Vanity Fair article also says in an interview with Vulture, Woz mentioned one aspect of Apple's
shareholder history was not covered by the film.
Kutcher told the Associated Press that director Joshua Michael Stern hadn't consulted with Woz on the
movie and
said the Woz had a financial interest in the Aaron Sorkin rival film about the
high-tech icon, who died Oct. 5, 2011 of pancreatic cancer.
Wife Janet Wozniak said in an email to Los
Gatos Patch that
the Woz has received hundreds of requests for interviews about the movie
"and he is only one person."
After the movie was released in January at the Sundance Film Festival, CNN reported the Woz also said facts from a script of the movie he
had obtained were "awful and atrocious."

"I think, still, these are games that people love to watch, and come and have fun," said David Ortiz, who's season is likely over due to a right Achilles injury. "Even [though it doesn't] look like we are going to the playoffs, it's just the kind of game guys always want to try to do something."
The Red Sox will try to secure a series victory on Wednesday night and win consecutive games for the first time since Aug. 26-27 against the Royals. They will send veteran Aaron Cook to the mound against Yankees rookie David Phelps.
Cook and the Red Sox can strike a blow to their rivals postseason hopes, with the Yankees falling back into a tie with the Orioles in the AL East after Tuesday's loss.
"We owe them," Boston manager Bobby Valentine said of New York, which still leads the season series, 8-5. "We haven't beaten them enough this year. I'd like to play some good games."
The Yankees are on a slide of their own, although not so dramatic as the one the Red Sox are facing. New York is 9-15 since Aug. 16, watching its division lead wither along the way.
Valentine is doing his best to make that trend continue, asserting that Boston will play hard against every remaining opponent, contender or otherwise.
"We're going to do our best every second that we're out there no matter who we're playing and try to give our fans, the organization, everything that we think they deserve," Valentine said. "That's a lot more than we've given them so far."
Yankees manager Joe Girardi agreed that opposing managers feel a need to focus on trying to win that day's game.
"When you get teams fighting for something and teams that aren't, managers feel responsible," Girardi said. "They have to do everything they would normally do to win that game."
Yankees: Phelps going through rough patch
The 25-year-old Phelps is 3-4 with a 3.55 ERA this season, but he owns a 4.54 ERA in his eight starts. That number has jumped over his last three outings, in which five home runs have contributed to a 7.20 ERA.
A three-run shot by Matt Wieters led to a four-run first inning for Phelps on Thursday at Baltimore. The right-hander called the game-opening effort "unacceptable" after lasting only four frames and surrendering five runs.
Phelps did author a quality start against the Red Sox on Aug. 18, holding them to three runs in 6 2/3 innings, with seven strikeouts.
Girardi said he'll "take it day-by-day" in deciding who will play first base with Mark Teixeira likely out for most of the rest of the regular season with a left calf injury. Steve Pearce probably will see most of the action against left-handers, with Nick Swisher going against righties.
Pearce played first on Tuesday against Jon Lester, while Swisher, playing right field, snapped an 0-for-28 skid with a first-inning double.
Red Sox: Cook gunning for rare victory
Cook is 3-9 this season, 1-8 in his last 11 starts and 0-4 in his last five. The latest blemish came Wednesday at Seattle, although he held the Mariners to two runs over six innings and struck out a season-high five.
For the season, Cook has collected only 16 punchouts while walking 15 in 76 2/3 innings. He also has surrendered 91 hits, 10 home runs and a .294 opponents' batting average.
In his one start against the Yankees, on July 27, Cook gave up six runs on seven hits in four innings.
Second baseman Dustin Pedroia has hit safely in 31 of 34 games since Aug. 5, batting an AL-best .375 over that stretch to raise his overall mark to .293. He also has 14 doubles among 21 extra-base hits during that period.
Worth noting
Raul Ibanez is 7-for-14 with a double, a home run and six RBIs in his career against Cook.
Cook has struck out more than two batters in two of his 14 starts.

My feet were getting really out of control. My heels were super callused, but in like a disgusting crumbly, flaky way, and I had dry skin peeling off all over the place. This thing worked wonders on shaving the dead skin off and smoothing my feet out. I use this after I shower and before I put on foot lotion. The skin comes off in a little compartment that collects the shavings, which is gross but also fascinating. For real, this thing gets it done. I love it.
I went for a pedicure and decided that I needed something to keep my heels smooth for my summer sandals. This tool seemed the safest and most effective. So far so good - I totally recommend it!
I like the design of this tool- the 2 halfs magnetically click them together, and the pink side has a reservoir underneath the cheese-grater-like side. Call me gross... but I have a feeling of satisfaction emptying out my callous gratings... I haven't used any other foot smoothing tools besides a pumice stone, so I can't speak to how sharp it is compared to other products. Let's just say my feet had been sorely neglected and this more than stood up to filing down my hooves...
My feet were gross before this tool. I went and got a pedicure and decided after that i needed something to keep the callouses at bay. I looked at quite a few different tools but this one seemed the safest and the cleanest without spending $25 a week on a pedicure that would last a day.
Love it and totally recommend it!
pretty good :) especially for free , will come in handy in summer time , been looking for one for a while
The two halves snap together magnetically which makes it a great device for travel. The callous file and smoother both work well, but don't seem to be quite as sharp as other foot groomers I've had before. Also, I'm not sure how long this will stay sharp and how sturdy it will be.
Sole Mates worked well for smoothing out my dry feet, and I loved the design of this product, but I don't think it smoothed as well as the Pedi-Egg I've used previously.
I really like the design. It's nice to have two files snap together, and the compartment for shavings is also a good thing. But I purchased this to replace another Tweezerman product, the Pedro 2-sided callus stone. In fact, they do two different things, and I used the other item for the wrong purpose! Whoops. In terms of quality and workmanship, the Tweezerman sole mates is worth the money. I just need to learn more about pedicure products so I won't be so confused!

À propos de cette chaîne
Puhitaq is an emerging video & cultural arts company owned and operated by Stacey Aglok MacDonald of Kugluktuk.
Puhitaq is dedicated to producing inspiring film and arts projects that are engaging and culturally relevant to Inuit across Canada and to develop and produce creative projects that promote education, wellness, social reflection and cultural knowledge.
The Sunburst:
The Puhitaq, often referred to in English as a sunburst, is the elaborate ruff around the parka hood of Inuit women from the Canadian Central & Western Arctic. As the English name suggests, this effective barrier against the cold winds emulates the look of the sun - a symbol of the renewal of life in Inuit culture.
Winters in the Arctic are long, dark and demanding, and although Inuit had the tools and knowledge needed to survive, the harsh winters constantly challenged their spirit, skills and survival and the return of the sun marked the beginning of a new year and another season survived. It was a time of intense rejoice that was expressed through feasting, dance, song and storytelling. The return of the sun continues to be a time of great celebration for Inuit communities across the circumpolar world!
The Sunburst is important to me as a symbol of my roots - and as a reflection of the traditional life of Inuit, their spirit and the spiral of life that depends on us honouring our past, looking forward to our future and always celebrating life.

We are the connection between the creator and the creation. This is the special role of human beings.

I can vouch for Dominate and Overload, Dawn of a Million Souls, Curse of the Werewolf and Mind Diary.
Especially Dawn of a Million Souls and Curse of the Werewolf. The former being great for slow, but awesome build-ups to a fantastic solo and the latter being great for fast alt-strum fans.

The good news: I would give this product 5 stars based on its appearance and functionality alone. Looks great. The Bad news: No matter how long I fiddled with the straps I could not get it to tighten up enough on the canister. Finally gave up after about 2 hours. You also have to be very careful with the straps not scratching the canister.

Steelers re-sign veteran tackle Max Starks
July 17, 2012
By Ed Bouchette / Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
The Steelers moved to strengthen an offensive line heavy on youth and pedigree by re-signing veteran tackle Max Starks to another one-year contract today.
The signing of their starting left tackle since 2008 gives the Steelers the luxury of keeping second-year pro Marcus Gilbert at right tackle, where he started as a rookie. Starks and rookie Mike Adams, their second-round draft choice, will contend for the starting job at left tackle in training camp.
Before they drafted Adams, the Steelers planned to move Gilbert to left tackle. Gilbert practiced on both sides during the spring.
Starks, an unrestricted free agent this year, underwent ACL surgery in January but proclaimed on Twitter this afternoon that "It's a great day, doc gave me a great report! On my way to being game ready."
Starks' experience with the Steelers since they drafted him on the third round from Florida in 2004 has been a mix of success and oddity. He became their starting right tackle in 2005, when they won a Super Bowl, and stayed there until Willie Colon beat him out in 2007.
Nevertheless, the Steelers made him their transition player in 2008 and paid him a one-year deal of nearly $7 million. He opened that season again as a backup but started 11 games at left tackle for an injured Marvel Smith.
In 2009, the Steelers named him their franchise player and paid him nearly $8.5 million for one season and he started every game at left tackle. Before training camp in 2010, they signed him to a four-year, $26.3 million contract. However, his season ended after seven games because of a neck injury and before the 2011 camp began, they released him for salary cap purposes.
They opened last season with Jonathan Scott as their left tackle but after four games, they signed Starks to a one-year contract and he started the rest of the way at left tackle, injuring his knee in the second quarter of their playoff loss to Denver. He became an unrestricted free agent in March and general manager Kevin Colbert said then that they would wait until the summer to determine whether to re-sign him.
No financial terms of Starks' one-year deal were available.
This is good news. I've always liked Max.
Here We Go Steelers!
Draft 2.3
1. Eric Reid, S, LSU
2. Eddie Lacey, RB, Alabama
3. Stedman Bailey, WR, WVU
4. Josh Boyce, WR, TCU
5. Landry Jones, QB, OU
6a. Cornelius Washington, OLB, Georgia
6b. Duke Williams, SS, Nevada
7. Vince Williams, ILB, FSU
I'm OK with the signing--it proves to me the value of being BFF with the star QB. I'll be honest... I've always been a Max Starks basher, and to be even more honest--I'm dumbfounded at how successful he's been in the NFL, especially this past year.
That all being said, I don't think he'll be anything but a body out there. At best, a serviceable RT. He is overweight, slow (even in his prime), coming off major leg injury (problem for a BIG BIG man like this)... and even though his arrivable seemed to coincide with better o-line play, I thought he had the second Most Embarrassing performance by a Steeler player last year (1st place = Ike Taylor), when Aldon Smith absolutely abused him like a red-headed stepchild.

He Will Turn the Hearts of the Fathers to the Children …
God has turned his heart toward you in Jesus Christ. Don't push it away.
God has turned his heart toward you in Jesus Christ. Don't push it away.
Our great challenge is to be the kind of church and the kind of parents that raise up children who hope in the triumph of God.
What is our calling as parents and as a community of Christians toward our children?
It is the Biblical duty of every generation to make sure that the next generation hears about the mighty acts of God.
Don't provoke your children to anger. Show them in your own soul how it can be replaced with tenderhearted joy.
In every stage of parenting, knowing God's mercy gives us brokenhearted boldness—and hope.

Anyway anyway. I called Lindsey up to suggest a visit! It would be our last chance to use the ticket before the move. Lindsey approved and the trip was a go! It was Alexandre's first visit to a new place, just for fun and not for work, in more than 2 years. His first real vacation in a while!
Yes, so everything worked out and on Friday afternoon, we were on our way.
We got to Lindsey and Ro's apartment late Friday night, where they had wonderful Domino's Pizza and beer waiting for us! Yum yum. Lots of chatting and catching up ensued.
Saturday morning, we joined Lindsey on her weekly trip to the local farmer's market. Alex and I ate some tapioca (Flavors of Brazil explains tapioca here). More yum.
Lindsey buys her greens from the greens guy |
The water looked so wonderful and inviting, and Lindsey and I couldn't resist going to put our feet in it. However, we foolishly failed to anticipate the 100-degree sand:
Did I mention it was hot outside? It was. The water looked so refreshing from our place on the hiking trail. Too bad we were too high up to jump in:
Yes, so then we went into the actual entrance area of the monument so we could get in line for the cable car that goes up Pão de Açucar.
Poor Alexandre is scared of heights, but he was a good sport about everything. We were going to eat a late lunch up there, but things were insanely overpriced (6 reais for a coxinha! What is this, Disneyland?). But yes, I'm so happy I finally went to Pão de Açucar! Famous image around the world, and all that.
We'd planned to go up to the Christ statue AFTER Pão de Açucar, but with the heat and the lack of a proper lunch, we decided to ditch Jesus (he's with us in spirit, right?) and drink on the beach instead. WIN.
Lindsey, Alexandre and I walked to the famous Copacabana beach, and while Alexandre slept on the sand, Lindsey and I braved the frigid waters, again a wonderful contrast to the oppressive sun. Can any oceanographers explain how the sea is so cold during such a hot, tropical summer? I often ditched my earth systems science class in college.
Lindsey was ready for action! |
the giant decorations at the entrance |
Inside the restaurant |
Everyone was so good, and they were having such a good time! |
Gross. I don't miss this part of American culture. And by that I mean I totally do sometimes. |

What are the Clans to you?

This is what we are. This is what we shall always be.
Posted 09 November 2011 - 02:11 AM
Im my opinion the Clans where the most stupid idea FASA could think of, for the Battletech universe. Their weapons and mech components did not fit in the (classic) ruleset and killed game balance. Oh, and their fluff isn't that interesting either.
I simply ignore them on every level.

Crusader to the core, but it is enlightenment we bring. For the body to heal the sickness and corruption must be cut away and discarded. The conquest is not about claiming a right, it is about assuming and realizing a duty (one of protection). Destruction to those that would keep us from this duty.

The Clans are definitely a lot more interesting than the Houses which mirrors too much of real life so they appear sort of mundane and a little bland (i still like them tho). I mean House Davion(meh!) or Clan Ghost Bears? Diamond Sharks? Snow Ravens? Nova Cats?
The Clans are both tribal, sort of religious yet technologically superior and advanced. So interesting...
Funnily enough, I rather fight against the Clans rather than with them. Its a lot more exciting to fight against such a superior ,interesting and exotic foe.

We do not enslave our isorla, in many cases the populations of the planets kept the same jobs, in occasional cases they would be tested to a job that may better utilize their abilities. Someone who is a skilled wielder but is unaware would be wasteful for them to continue to work in a warehouse, quiaff? The changes we did make had as long as the poor worked they were taken care of, fed, given shelter, clothed. As long as you provide for the Clan we will provide for you. The ones who would have problems are ones who were born in to a high ranked status as they now found themselves possibly in a different position, unless of course their skills warranted their position. The millitaries are disbanded and those who showed their warriors spirit, depending on the Clan can attain warrior status once more through dedication. Otherwise they serve as their bondsmaster's technician often enough.
You talk about lack of honor, but it is the Inner Sphere that has for centuries attacked civilian targets, bombed their infrastructure into oblivion. Please do not bother trying to point out Edo on Turtle Bay, as that was a isolated incident and the Star Colonel abore the Sabre Tooth (iirc) was repremanded. It was a unneeded waste of resource and personnel. I will point out Kentares where the Draconis Combine slaughtered the whole planets population. Which do you think is worse?
You fail to understand the exsistance the Clans had in the Kerensky Cluster and the Pentagon worlds. When we first established ourselves we had a very limited population, and an even more limited warrior caste. The implemention of our Old being brought back to train out sibkos was using our core philosophy of waste not. If we waste the lives of our skilled, who is there to train the next generation of warriors? We also do not force Warriors to become Solhama, they are given various options of how to proceed, often being assigned to another caste where the remainder of their skills can be used. Of course being warriors their desire to serve their Clan often has them continue service in the warrior caste in hopes of ending their service with honor.
Most of the Clans do not think the way you seem to think they do. We realize that the lower caste are vital for making the well oiled machine that is the Clans possible, We the warrior caste are there to protect and uphold the lower caste. Do not make a mistake, the civilian castes honor us and understand that with out us, outside forces could destroy them, much like your inner sphere houses keep doing to each others innocent populations.
Five, Nicholas proclaimed, was the foundation
Upon which our true society was to be built.
Laborers to till the land, to do the tasks:
They shall have our undying gratitude,
For they are the muscle behind us all.
Merchants to buy and sell with fairness:
They shall have our commerce and respect,
For they are the bones upon which we are built.
Technicians to build and fix the machines:
They shall have our admiration,
For they are the fingers with which we grasp life.
Scientists to create and discover:
They shall have our awe and our attention,
For they are the mind of our society.
And above all, the Warriors who protect.
They shall have our cooperation and worship,
For they are the blood and soul of us all.
-- The Remembrance, Passage 67, Verse 26, Lines 21-37
The Clans, IMHO, endure a tough life. Every citizen in the clan is expected to participate fully in promoting the well being of the Clan.
Whilst a lot is written about the Warriors there is little information about how the Clans structure worked. However we do know that the Warrior Class endured rigorous training and that of every 100 Warriors only 20 made it through to pilot a Mech. The rest either died or became foot soldiers, tank pilots or even air support.
In my mind I imagine that the Clan's training scheme would be similar to that portrayed in the film Soldier, lead actor Kurt Russel.
Warriors were trained for Battle, their whole focus was never to loose. Their job was to protect the Clan and uphold the high ideals of Clan Life. As long as they had life in their bodies they would attempt to do their duty.
If one excepts the above perception as being close to how life in a Clan was to a Warrior, then we can begin to understand the Honor code, Zellbrigen.
Zellbrigen , was developed to prevent waste. It was designed to help settle disagrements and disputes with the minimal of damage to the Clan infrastructure.
So you can understand how in close combat and under Zellbrigen, to kill a pilot by shooting the cockpit out would be frowned upon.( The time and effort put into training the Warrior by the Clan) Legging an foe would not be however as it was easier to repair a leg than replace weapons etc. And would likely result in an act of contrition by that legged opponent. (Notice the use of the words Frowned Upon It is not considered dishonorable.) The Honor was to the victor for NOT taking advantage and ending the fight with a Headshot.
This was /is the situation between the Clans.
The Clans developed their own weaponry which turned out to be far supperior to that of the InnerSphere.
The difficulty in this is when The Clans encounter the InnerSphere. The InnerSphere have no ownership of the Clans Honor System. As such they often exploited the Clans Honor system and used it against the Clans.
The film the Last Samurai is a good example of the difference in idiology between 2 waring factions.
In the context of this or any other MechWarrior Game, there has to be a ballance in the game. You cannot, if you wish to create a relastic MechWarrior Universe, Change the concept of the idea. You must keep the imballance of the Clans including Zellbrigen. This in effect would ballance the drops as a Clan would never and should never out number the Foe on a drop. 3-1 would be a good offset. 3 InnerSphere to one Clan.
If as I suspect we are to be Playing as InnerSphere, I expect the battles against the Clan based NPC's to be hard and involve a lot of teamwork to complete.
I am looking forward to it even though I will not be able to pilot my trusty Nova Cat.
Our perceptions of the game may differ, but the love of it gives us a common bond.

I can agree with this, though the ratio would shrink the more advanced the IS becomes. By 3085 there's IS designs that can rival Clan mechs.
At any rate, people who play in a Clan faction without adhering to Zellbrigen don't really belong among the Clans to begin with.
This is why trials of annihilation were created.
Posted 09 November 2011 - 06:13 AM
In gameplay terms, i'm sure they'll figure a way to keep everything balanced (probably numbers), but don't expect clanners to just run around gimping themselves following Zell against a team of people who do nothing but gang up and shoot them in the back.
Posted 09 November 2011 - 06:25 AM
We bring enlightenment, true enlightenment, not that sham version that the Blakists spew on their people.
We minimalize losses, bid down forces, and honor the winners of Trials. People talk about our supposed enslavement of the lower castes but in reality their lives are not altered that much. The key difference is we do not draft children and poorly trained fighters, we train our warriors hard and they emerge ready for combat, and citizens can sleep soundly knowing we try to bid and fight away from cities.
Wardens protect their people, Crusaders have this misguided view that the Inner Sphere should burn as they march toward Terra.

Im my opinion the Clans where the most stupid idea FASA could think of, for the Battletech universe. Their weapons and mech components did not fit in the (classic) ruleset and killed game balance. Oh, and their fluff isn't that interesting either.
I simply ignore them on every level.
out of game, I wholeheartedly agree.
In-game: The Inner Sphere was actually making strides towards peace during the 3040's due to a backlash over the war of 3039, this coupled with new tech and a new optimism lead many people to start considering a better world...then the ghosts of tragic past show up to subjugate by armed force what was never theirs. Tell me clanner, is not the Exodus one massive case of dereliction of duty?
General Kerensky , following the liberation of Terra, had a chance to stop the growing chaos and stabilize the Star League. What does he do? he gives in to defeatism and leaves; whereas groups like Star League Bureau of Communication, and Eridani Light Horse chose to stick around. The Light Horse specifically stating the IS was their home, and they will fight to protect it.
Aaron DeChavilier (my namesake) second in command to Kerensky during the liberation of Terra even suggested overthrowing the Great Houses in the aftermath of the Civil War. The SLDF had the political clout, arms, and tech to do it...instead they leave.
Look at it this way; Aleksander Kerenksy was Isuldur on Mount Doom

You Crusaders can debate around in circles forever about whether "the" clanner philosophy is "better," but it doesn't change the realities of the Inner Sphere, such as how the common folk are all for insulating innocent civilians from the horrors of war, but the common folk don't rule their realms. Have fun trying to convince the 'Sphere that the only way to minimise the intensity and cost of war is to adopt a meritocracy based on martial prowess and literally crank out people as tools of war to be used up, while convincing the House rulers that they want to give up their power and wealth so they can be part of your civilian castes. Inability to handle this situation with anything better than trying to liberate us from our arrogant and war-mongering ways through military conquest, like the inferior dogs we are, is a display of weakness and lack of self-awareness. I hope you don't expect calling us poor, misguided fools to sway us any more than I expect anything I say to change your opinions or beliefs. (very little, in case I failed to make it clear)

However their strict code and inflexibility, being unable to adapt, that's not my style. I'm going to fight to win, to survive, not to follow a set of rules the guy shooting at me doesn't seem to bother following.

Owl Cutter, on 09 November 2011 - 10:16 AM, said:
wait, clan society is better how!?
also, the meritocracy thing...yeah meritocracy in clans only applies to their trueborn warriors.
Im a freeborn tech, I test for the military; my training program is already dumbed down (waste-not society = waste no resources on freeborns).
Now that I am in the military, I am immediately placed in a second-line group because freeborns 'aren't skilled,'
Then I am given older tech, but expected to fight better than trueborns due to genetic profiling bias engrained in the culture, my failures only prove their point about freeborns.
Now some endgame stipulations: no matter how great my deeds as a freeborn I can never -
command a frontline star/cluster
command even large second-line regiments
be promoted to where a trueborn can end up (valid warrior, bloodnamed, saKhan, ilKhan) etc.
Inner Sphere house army:
I am a tech, I sign up. I do well as a mechwarrior, so I get placed in either a new regiment
or placed in the replacement depot to picked up by a frontline regiment,
let's say I do well, I get promoted to lance leader.
I do even better, I get promoted to company leader.
and so on....
let's face, how much meritocracy can you have in a caste system
the eugenics in clan society has blinded them to anyone's actual worth. Also clanners; just because nicholas used eugenics
250 yrs ago to make warriors, this does not justify your bias and genetic profiling now

Pescadero Lagoon Science Panel
A science panel was formed in early 2013 to evaluate the physical and biological characteristics of the Pescadero lagoon and marsh ecosystem and to consider recommendations regarding future management actions there. Specifically, the panel is charged with reviewing existing literature and data related to the Pescadero system and similar coastal estuarine systems. From this literature and data review, they will draw conclusions about how the Pescadero marsh and lagoon ecosystem is functioning. Their findings and recommendations to state and federal agencies and to the public are expected later in 2013.
The science panel consists of the following seven independent and outside experts:
• John Largier, Ph.D., expert in Estuarine/Lagoon Physical Processes from the University of California, Davis (UCD) Bodega Marine Lab
• Ivano Aiello, Ph.D., a Marine Geologist from Moss Landing Marine Lab
• Benjamin Bostick, Ph.D., a Sediment Chemistry Specialist from Columbia University
• David Jacobs, Ph.D., expert in Estuary Biology from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA)
• Jessie Lacy, Ph.D., expert in Estuarine/Lagoon Physical Processes from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS)
• Celine Pallud, Ph.D., a Sediment Chemistry expert from the University of California, Berkeley
• Mark Stacey, Ph.D., an expert in Estuarine/Lagoon Physical Processes from the University of California, Berkeley
The science panel will meet together several times over the upcoming months. Prior to beginning their efforts, a public meeting will be held to introduce the panel chair and allow the public an opportunity to provide related comments.
The formation of this science panel is a joint project of California State Parks, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Restoration Center and National Marine Fisheries Service, Southwest Region.
The Pescadero lagoon and marsh ecosystem is within Pescadero State Beach and Pescadero Marsh Natural Preserve and is managed by the California Department of Parks and Recreation.
Public Hearings
Wednesday February 27, 2013
4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.
Historic Train Depot
110 Higgins Canyon Rd., Half Moon Bay, CA
At this public meeting, the role of the science panel will be explained and time will be allotted for interested members of the public to provide comments for the panel's consideration.

Browsing PLANNER 2004:Imphal by Subject "Intelligent Search"
Now showing items 1-1 of 1
Prakash, Nupur (INFLIBNET Center, November NaN, 2004)[more][less]
Abstract: The paper explores the role of an intelligent software agent as a mediator in information retrieval (IR). Software agents are autonomous programs which perform a specific personalized task in a heterogeneous and distributed environment. These autonomous, intelligent agents make decisions on behalf of the user, by narrowing the search domain and decreasing the human computer interaction, phenomenally. With the increasing number of institutes and universities across the country and globe it has become very important to share library services rather than duplicating the library facilities everywhere and incurring huge expenditure. In the present paper, the architecture for a digital library DIGLIB is proposed, which helps a user or a group of users identify and find reading material in a virtual or brick and mortar library of his or her interest. DIGLIB uses a software agent which is a unique combination of filtering and information agent to facilitate intelligent search. The information agent performs a general search on various sites rigorously based on a keyword and phrases. The short listed sites are further subjected to a specific search by the filtering agent. The information agent performs a breadth first search on the links ahead and also provides navigation recommendation. A rule-base is maintained by the filtering agent using premises like broad area of interest, specific area of interest, type of article, book, magazine, journals, periodicals etc. to be searched for further narrowing the search domain and suggesting URNs of digital libraries of user's interest. An attempt has been made to design a digital library interface using an intelligent agent which continually runs in the background and facilitates the task of finding a suitable match between the desired library service and user's requirement.

The two-CD set combines the soft floating voice of Alison with the hard-driving bluegrass of a talented collection of musicians to provide a high level of entertainment, especially as morning or evening drive time listening in the car.
Ms. Krauss' voice is used to wonderful advantage in such tracks as "Let Me Touch You for Awhile," "The Lucky One," "Forget About It," "There is a Reason," and many others. One of my favorites is the plaintive "Ghost in this House." By the same token, the bluegrass instrumentals such as "Choctaw Hayride" and "Cluck Old Hen" can best be described as quintessential country-car-chase tunes.
For those who have never had the pleasure of listening either to Ms. Krauss or to bluegrass, this album is an excellent introduction to both and is an essential recording in every respect.
Now, for the fun surprise of the album (at least for me). In the Coen brothers' filmed tribute to southern roots music, O Brother, Where Art Thou?, Alison Krauss's haunting voice is immediately recognizable as one of the tempting sirens (Gillian Welch and Emmylou Harris are the other two) in "Didn't Leave Nobody But The Baby," as one half of the vocals (Gillian Welch is the other half) in "I'll Fly Away," and as the lead vocal on the beautiful rendition of "Down in the River to Pray."
Less recognizable in that film, however, are the mysterious voices and musicians that make up the Soggy Bottom Boys, whose "I Am a Man of Constant Sorrow" serves as leitmotif for the whole movie. Anyway, a few tracks into disc 2 of Alison Krauss & Union Station: Live, I felt the thrilling surprise of the yokel in O Brother who exclaims "Hot damn, it's the Soggy Bottom Boys!" as they launch into their hit single to thunderous applause. Sure enough, the mouthpiece for George Clooney is none other than Dan Tyminski, guitarist and vocalist for Union Station, and their live rendition of "I Am a Man of Constant Sorrow" is clearly a Soggy Bottom Boys performance. Nice.
Incidentally, for all you O Brother fans, "Down to the River to Pray" is also on the album.

Nexuiz video focusses on super weapons
Machinima's gone live with a three minute gameplay video of XBLA arena shooter Nexuiz ahead of its launch in a few weeks as part of House Party. The video focusses on a group of three weapons, known as the super weapon mutators: super shotgun, super nex and super hager. Also something in there about a mutator that turns weapon noises into farts. I'm not even going to go there.
The Illfonic-made, THQ-published shooter launches on February 29.

ACB: Capcom to publish arena FPS Nexuiz
The Australian Classification Board has listed Capcom as the publisher for CryEngine 3-made arena FPS Nexuiz. THQ will deliver the game for Australia, due to it being Capcom's distribution partner in Australia. The title, developed by IllFonic for PSN and XBLA, goes without a date or pricing as yet.
Thanks, Joystiq.

Alumni Spotlight
Jessie McGuire '12 and Benjamin Pate '12
During their senior year, political science majors Jesse and Benjamin participated in the Election Fellows Program, funded by the U.S. Election Assistance Commission to recruit classmates as volunteer election inspectors at the polls.
Is "exporting" American democracy to other nations good foreign policy? Why is U.S. healthcare policy different from that of other countries? What role does the Internet play in grassroots political movements? Is it true that "all politics is local?"
Why Choose Nazareth for Political Science?
The Political Science program at Nazareth College is the study of justice and power. Political scientists study power relationships the way economists study markets. The program helps them become informed citizens and prepares them for careers in public service and political leadership. It focuses on four areas: political philosophy, US government, comparative politics, and international relations. Courses include relevant subjects like campaigns and elections, conflict in the Middle East, health care policy, and the politics of developing countries. We also explore the pros and cons of various political theories, the impact of American foreign policy on the global community, and the complexities of the legislative process.
Students are also encouraged to experience the world of politics firsthand through internships in Washington, D.C., Albany and Rochester. Pre-law students have the option to work in the local district attorney's office and private law firms as well.
Program Highlights
- Small classes and individual attention from faculty.
- Experiential learning with internships and independent study projects.
- Emphasis on writing, communications, and critical thinking.
- Methodologies include historical, philosophical, and behavioral approaches.
- A solid general knowledge foundation gives students the flexibility to enter a broad range of careers such as law, government service, politics, journalism, and education.

Perfect Balance Between Truck and Car. Love my Pathy
by An MSN Autos Consumer on 07/05/2010.
Trim: 2001 Nissan Pathfinder LE 4WD, Owned 1 year.
VQ Engine, Electronic 4WD, Reliability & Dependability, Quality of materials, Fit and Finish, Memory Seats, Quality of ride for daily driving, Rugged design, and lots of storage space.
Having to remove headrests each time you want to drop the rear seats, gas mileage, and the choice of Rims for the LE model.
Overall review:
I love this SUV!! Its great to drive on a daily basis, and has never let me down. Always starts, great through the thickest snow, and treats the driver to a very car-like interior space. Best car I've bought for the money yet. I work for Nissan, and I can tell you that this R50 generation of Pathfinder is much better then current one. It's the only uni-body pathfinder, but it still does everything better then the current generation. If you're looking for a reliable SUV, these Pathfinders should definitely be on your list!

Theta Phi Alpha collected 274 cans, TKE had 227 cans and the new Rotaract Club, a service organization, collected 372 cans to win the competition receiving $200 for the organization.
