A set with full polish, reversible, ratcheting wrenches would be appreciated, similar to #42422. Ironically, I can buy these from open stock, all made in USA, but not offered as a set, very frustrating. Willing to pay more for USA made, as well. Even better, make them box end reversible on BOTH ends, two different sizes, to save money. Many people buying these probably already have a set of combination wrenches anyway.

Saw this set of wrenches for sale at 1/2 price...$40.00. The 10mm. would have cost me that from snap on! Nice chrome feel,..brought two for my shops. My mechanics constantly loose the 8 & 10 mm. wrenches. One of these is staying in my own box, and the snap-on wrenches didn't seem to mind.

I bought this item right before Christmas because I needed a couple wrenches, especially the 8 mm but, the ratcheting end of the 8mm wrench is not very good, it does not hold well, when I put any pressure on it it strips and does not turn, the nut or bolt. I have not had the opportunity to use the rest of the wrenches nor to return it for exchange yet so I don't know if it is just this wrench.

This is a nice set. The price on sale was good, so bought a metric and an SAE 8 pc set. Has made my life easier for sure with my first set of ratcheting wrenches!! wow! The quality is good, they look nice, good handle length. Went to four stars as the 17mm seems to bind up a bit. I will be bringing it back to my local Sears store, and will see how good they are at replacing it. The rest are wonderful, so I figure its just a random bad one, we will see. I will update my review after I see how well they honor the warranty (especially new replacement on new tool).

They are a little longer that I'd like, but if you're looking to get some good leverage, they might work great for you. Also, I'd like the ratcheting end to be a little thinner profile. The higher end wrenches that Craftsman sells of this style have a direction selection (which I would have liked), they are a bit shorter, and the ratchet housing is a bit thinner allowing you to get into tighter places. Maybe these are thicker so that you can put more torque on them without breaking. A fine wrench, but I would have preferred the other model after using both.

Release Date: February 17, 2004 |
DOE Launches Competition for Cutting Edge Coal Technologies Round II Reaffirms President's Commitment to Reduce Power Plant Emissions |
WASHINGTON, DC - Secretary of Energy Spencer Abraham today announced the release of a solicitation for the second round of proposals under President Bush's Clean Coal Power Initiative (CCPI), and DOE's plans to provide approximately $280 million in federal matching funds for demonstrating barrier-breaking technologies that sharply reduce and ultimately eliminate pollution in coal-based power plants.
"Clean coal is a crucial element of our overall energy policy and its goals of a balanced, diverse energy portfolio that will provide Americans with energy and economic security and continued environmental improvement," Secretary Abraham said. "The technologies we seek to foster through Round II will help make it possible for coal to remain a cornerstone of our domestic energy portfolio, particularly for power generation, and to continue that role into the long-term future." Coal generates more than 50 percent of America's electric power and constitutes more than 90 percent of proved fossil fuel reserves. The call for proposals requires that prospective projects must ensure coal is used for at least 75 percent of the fuel energy input to the process, while electricity is at least 50 percent of the energy-equivalent output from the technology demonstrated. Additionally, proposals must show the potential for rapid market penetration upon successful demonstration of the technology concept. Round II projects will support the President's Clear Skies Initiative to reduce power plant emissions, particularly mercury, by about 70 percent by 2018, and the Global Climate Change Initiative to reduce carbon emissions growth over the next ten years. The CCPI projects will also provide the technical foundation for the FutureGen Initiative to create the world's first zero-emissions, coal-based power and hydrogen production plant, which will include carbon dioxide removal and sequestration. DOE is encouraging proposals for coal gasification system advances that enhance efficiency, environmental performance, and reliability as well as expand the gasifier's flexibility to process a variety of feedstocks (including biomass, municipal and industrial waste co-fired with coal). Advances in gasification-based systems are required to successfully commercialize technologies that will attain the near-zero emissions goals of the Clean Coal Technology Roadmap. Technologies that permit better management of carbon emissions are also being strongly encouraged. Roughly one third of the United States' carbon emissions come from power plants. Recently, as part of his National Climate Change Policy, President Bush placed a high priority on encouraging new technologies that can reduce these emissions while keeping energy at reasonably prices. For each project selected by the Energy Department, industrial sponsors must be willing to at least match the federal funding share. There will also be a requirement for repayment from commercially successful technologies, which will be used to underwrite future clean coal research. Industry has until June 15, 2004 to submit proposals, and DOE anticipates selection of winning projects by the end of the calendar year. |

(November 8, 2012)--The nor'easter that moved up the East Coast caused more than 200,000 additional power outages in the same areas that were hit by Superstorm Sandy.
More than 750,000 homes and businesses, mostly in New Jersey and New York, were in the dark Thursday, down from a peak of more than 8.5 million in the wake of Sandy.
The storm produced gusty winds, rain and snow, but didn't cause the flooding that had been anticipated.
It was moving into New England Thursday.
In New York, some sections of Queens and Staten Island hard hit by Sandy got up to 6 inches of snow Wednesday.
More than 6 inches of snow fell in parts of Connecticut and Rhode Island.

STORMY SIX: Megafono (dbl CD)
A collection of Live recordings made between 1976 and 1982 in Italy, France, Germany and at the London RIO festival, covering the whole range of the group's repertoire and a lot more that didn't appear on the records, much of it in the involved chamber mode, but also straying into abstract, experimental, Zappaesque silliness, weird and downright eccentric territories that are absent from the official records. The second CD is more or less music-theatre. The sound quality is variable, so this is for those who know the group already, but for them it's pretty eye-opening. Warning to prog mavens, there is a long stretch of comedy material here and ReR will not accept responsibility for any loss of cool that may occur. An interesting, mixed up, band with a lot of conflicting dimensions all out on the table here. Fascinating.

Critical Essays
Anthony Hecht American Literature Analysis
The bulk of Anthony Hecht's oeuvre is an album of the agony of visions revisited. His parodies aside, much of Hecht's poetry speaks to matters he found most important: seeing and seeing accurately, remembering, and reconciling by way of relentless effort and painstaking technique. He once said that seeing accurately is almost the most important act that a human being can perform in life. This act is one he perfected as a formalist, or New Critical poet, one that maintained the ethos of an era, and one that Hecht made memorable both by virtue of form and by content.
As did Ezra Pound, Hecht saw poetry as the insignia of civilization, and he took responsibility as a poet whose task it was not only to write about himself or further his practice of poetic expression, but also to apply prosodic skill to life by putting it into context without evading the terrible. A seemingly impossible task, Hecht accomplished it by taking an almost impossible approach, by writing in a poetic form that many say is almost impossible to write: the sestina.
Hecht approached this daunting, demanding task with the belief that it is possible to have some sort of reconciliation—to present that which is disagreeable by putting it into the context of beauty and truth, the way, he once noted, that John Keats found William Shakespeare was able to do. The sestina provided the form for Hecht to combine, contrast, and reconcile several ideas at once. Ideas that bombard...

Ramsay Hunt syndrome
By Mayo Clinic staffOriginal Article: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/ramsay-hunt-syndrome/DS00878
Facial nerve |
Ramsay Hunt syndrome (herpes zoster oticus) occurs when a shingles infection affects the facial nerve near one of your ears. In addition to the painful shingles rash, Ramsay Hunt syndrome can cause facial paralysis and hearing loss in the affected ear.
Ramsay Hunt syndrome is caused by the same virus that causes chickenpox. After chickenpox heals, the virus lies dormant in your nerves. Years later, it may reactivate. If the virus reactivates and affects your facial nerve, the result is Ramsay Hunt syndrome.
High doses of antiviral medications and corticosteroids are used to treat Ramsay Hunt syndrome. Prompt treatment can reduce your risk of complications, which can include permanent facial muscle weakness and deafness.
Facial paralysis |
The two main signs of Ramsay Hunt syndrome are:
- A painful red rash with fluid-filled blisters on, in and around one ear
- Facial weakness or paralysis on the same side as the affected ear
Usually, the rash and the facial paralysis develop at the same time. But in some cases, the rash will occur before the facial paralysis, or the paralysis before the rash. Sometimes, the rash never materializes.
If you have Ramsay Hunt syndrome, you might also experience:
- Ear pain
- Hearing loss
- Ringing in your ears (tinnitus)
- Difficulty closing one eye
- A sensation of spinning or moving (vertigo)
- A change in taste perception or loss of taste
When to see a doctor
Call your doctor if you experience facial paralysis or a shingles rash on your face. Treatment beginning within seven days of the start of signs and symptoms may help prevent long-term complications.
Facial nerve |
Ramsay Hunt syndrome occurs in people who have had chickenpox. Once you recover from chickenpox, that virus can lie dormant in your body for years — sometimes reactivating in later years to cause shingles, a painful rash with fluid-filled blisters.
Ramsay Hunt syndrome is a shingles outbreak that affects the facial nerve near one of your ears. It typically also causes varying degrees of one-sided facial paralysis and hearing loss.
Risk factors
Anyone who has had chickenpox can develop Ramsay Hunt syndrome. But, it's more common in older adults, typically affecting people older than 60. Ramsay Hunt syndrome is rare in children.
Ramsay Hunt syndrome isn't contagious. However, reactivation of the varicella-zoster virus can cause chickenpox in people you come in contact with if they haven't previously had chickenpox or been vaccinated for chickenpox. The infection can be serious for people with immune system deficiencies.
Until the rash blisters scab over, avoid physical contact with:
- Anyone who's never had chickenpox or vaccination for chickenpox
- Anyone who has a weak immune system
- Newborns
- Pregnant women
Complications of Ramsay Hunt syndrome may include:
- Permanent hearing loss and facial weakness. For most people, the hearing loss and facial paralysis associated with Ramsay Hunt syndrome is temporary. However, it can become permanent for some people.
- Eye damage. The facial weakness caused by Ramsay Hunt syndrome may make it difficult for you to close your eyelid. Incomplete eyelid closure can lead to damage of the protective dome of clear tissue over the front of your eye (cornea). This damage can cause eye pain and blurred vision.
- Postherpetic neuralgia. This painful condition occurs when a shingles infection damages nerve fibers. The messages sent by these nerve fibers become confused and exaggerated — causing pain that may persist long after other signs and symptoms of Ramsay Hunt syndrome have faded.
Preparing for your appointment
You're likely to start by first seeing your family doctor. He or she may refer you to a doctor who specializes in nervous system disorders (neurologist) or to an ear, nose and throat specialist (otolaryngologist).
What you can do
Before your appointment, you may want to write a list of answers to the following questions:
- What are your symptoms? When did they start?
- Have you had the sensation that the room is spinning (vertigo)?
- Has your hearing been affected?
- Have you noticed a change in your sense of taste?
- Have you had the chickenpox (varicella) vaccine? When?
- Have you ever had chickenpox? When?
- Are you being treated for any chronic health conditions? If so, what treatments are you receiving?
- Are you pregnant?
What to expect from your doctor
During the physical exam, your doctor will closely examine your face, to check for evidence of one-sided paralysis or a shingles rash on, in or around your ear.
Tests and diagnosis
Doctors often can identify Ramsay Hunt syndrome based on medical history, a physical exam and the disorder's distinctive signs and symptoms. To confirm the diagnosis, your doctor might take a sample of fluid from one of the rash blisters in your ear for testing.
Treatments and drugs
Prompt treatment of Ramsay Hunt syndrome can ease pain and decrease your risk of long-term complications. Medications may include:
- Antiviral drugs. Medications such as acyclovir (Zovirax), famciclovir (Famvir) or valacyclovir (Valtrex) often help combat the chickenpox virus.
- Corticosteroids. A short regimen of high-dose prednisone appears to boost the effect of antiviral drugs in Ramsay Hunt syndrome.
- Anti-anxiety medications. Drugs like diazepam (Valium) can help relieve vertigo.
- Pain relievers. The pain associated with Ramsay Hunt syndrome can be severe. Narcotic drugs — such as those containing oxycodone (Percocet, Oxycontin, others) or hydrocodone (Vicodin, Lortab, others) — may be needed.
Lifestyle and home remedies
The following can help reduce the discomfort of Ramsay Hunt syndrome:
- Keep areas affected by the rash clean.
- Apply cool, wet compresses to the rash to ease pain.
- Take an over-the-counter pain reliever or anti-inflammatory drug, such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin, others).
If facial weakness makes it difficult for you to close one of your eyes, take the following steps to protect your vision:
- Use moisturizing eyedrops throughout the day if your eye becomes dry.
- At night, apply ointment to the eye and tape your eyelid shut, or wear an eye patch.
Children are now routinely vaccinated against chickenpox, which greatly reduces the chances of them becoming infected with the naturally occurring chickenpox virus. A shingles vaccine for people over 60 also is available.

Get there early and take lots of cash as the vendors do not take debit and very few take mastercard and visa. Food is delish, crafts are a plenty. Highly recommended (Saturday mornings only 6am-1pm)

We were staying at the Lord Beaverbrook hotel just down the road from the farmers market and took a walk over on Saturday morning. There is an excellent array of fresh vegetables, meat and fish as well as plenty of delicious cooked morsels. I enjoyed browsing through the crafty stalls and only wish I could have bought more. I can... More
We were staying close by and decided to walk over on Saturday morning. It was a beautiful morning and there were lots of people! I was pleasantly surprised that there were quite a few gluten-free treats and snacks at the market. I would definitely visit again.
If you're in Fredericton on a Saturday, the local farmer's market is worth checking out. It is only open from 6 to 1, so plan your visit. It has plenty of local produce, meats and cheeses, plus many hand crafted wares. When we stopped there were plenty of food vendors, so do take advantage and sample the local food. We... More
Great food, feesh and plentiful. Vendors galore with everything and anything. We're from Northern Ontario and if we had a market like this in our town, tourism would skyrocket. Great people, good prices, excellent quality of products.
If ever you are in Fredericton on a saturday morning, don't miss out on the Boyce Farmer's market. Fresh produce, hand made goods, beautiful people and great coffee (Whitney coffee). This market has been a landmark in Fredericton for over 50 years. Its well worth the stop.
I grew up in Fredericton and spent many a Saturday morning at the market. Fantastic fresh fruits, vegetables and flowers in season. Meat, fish and cheese vendors. Local artisans selling their wares. Usually a few musicians. Tons of hot food - so many choices! The samosas are the best I have ever had! I live in Toronto now but make... More
I'm not suggesting that you travel to Fredericton just to visit Boyce's, but if you're there, do not miss this. It's much more than just a farmer's market. It's like a major crafts fair, carnival and the best farmer's market you've ever been to. Vendors sell every sort of seafood you'd find in New Brunswick. I couldn't begin to catalog... More
Frederictonians always recommend the Market to visitors and new residents of Fredericton, and for good reason. One of the best local markets that we have seen anywhere, it offers a surprising range of ethnic foods for such a small city. As other reviewers have noted, you must arrive early to avoid the huge crowds that flock there every weekend. There... More
Great mix of food and crafts. I used to live in Fredericton and this was a mandatory Saturday experience. Visiting recently, little has changed, and what has is for the better. I particularly liked the charcuterie vendor who had some excellent offerings.

From the December 16, 2007 Weekly Standard
December 17, 2007
by Irwin Stelzer
"Color them green," warbled Barbra Streisand. That was in 1963, and she was singing about her envious eyes. But flash forward to today and those words would equally apply to the myriad players in the let's-make-environmental-and-energy-policy game.
We are all green now. Al Gore took time off the speech circuit to collect a Nobel Prize for persuading the world that global warming threatens our very existence. Arnold Schwarzenegger, not content with painting California green, has formed an alliance with Tony Blair to press Europe's politicians to do the same, and they have responded by seeking ways of forcing car makers and airlines to cut their emissions. Ken Livingstone has persuaded leading companies to sign up to a "Green 500" group that will publish its progress in reducing carbon emissions.
There's more, but you get the idea: the green wave is rolling, and has drowned those who doubt whether the Earth is really warming, and question the role of human activity in any warming.
The physical science question having been resolved to the satisfaction of the greens, the question now becomes just what to do. Here we find strange bedfellows: oil producers and environmentalists.
The Opec oil cartel, which recently met in Abu Dhabi, and the 15,000 – or is it 20,000 – ministers, advocacy groups, journalists and suntan-hunting politicians meeting in Bali might not know it, but they have a common goal: high oil prices. The oil producers want to keep prices high so that the huge shift in wealth from consuming countries to their sovereign wealth funds continues.
The greens favour high oil prices because consumers use less of the stuff when it costs more, and because high prices for oil make other forms of energy more competitive. Nuclear power, solar energy, wind power or any of the other substitutes for fossil fuels can become more economically viable only if oil prices stay about where they are – and politicians stump up some generous subsidies, sceptics would add.
Meanwhile, the hunt for the proverbial free lunch is on. The most efficient way to cut the use of fossil fuels is to make them more expensive by taxing them, or the emissions they create. But politicians are as unenthusiastic about transparency in the cost of cleaning up the environment as they are about increasing the transparency of the funding of political parties. So most proposals to cut carbon emissions are built around a single proposition: hide their cost from voters.
Motor vehicles always come in for special attention. Some would require car companies to increase the fuel efficiency of their fleets, but fail to mention that the cost will be reflected in the price of cars and the higher death toll associated with lighter vehicles. Others mandate greater use of ethanol, but do not mention that current mandates have already driven up the price of corn and wheat, and of meat and poultry by making animal feed more expensive. Consumers of electricity will also pay for cooling the world when utilities are required to obtain more of their electricity from expensive renewable sources and nuclear power. And new taxes on oil producers will certainly drive up the price of petrol and heating oil.
Even the emerging favourite in the United States and Europe, a cap on emissions followed by a trading of permits, is a hide-the-cost device: costs of compliance will be passed on as higher prices. So the blame will go to car makers, supermarkets, electricity utilities, and oil companies, the applause to politicians. All so politicians can avoid the transparent device of a tax on carbon or carbon emissions.
This brings us back to Bali, where the negotiators had two main tasks. The first was to formulate an agenda that keeps America in the emissions-reduction game, which means persuading a Senate that was prepared to reject Kyoto by unanimous vote that the greening of America will not stifle economic growth. The second was to attract the developing countries, most notably China and India, into the game. Whether the agreed "road map" will achieve those goals, or prove as useless as the one designed to bring peace to Israel, remains to be seen.
That's because so-called clean sources of energy have their own problems. A source high up in Britain's nuclear industry tells me that there will be no new nukes unless the regulators agree on a uniform licensing standard, curb litigation, and cut construction delays. This is no more likely than a politically acceptable solution to the nuclear waste disposal problem.
Nor will renewables provide a free lunch. Offshore wind power, the poster-boy du jour of British policymakers and Greenpeace, "is more expensive than gas-fired", notes Alan Moore, managing director of National Wind Power. And we have yet to see what will happen when objectors raise questions about the impact of specific wind farms on birds, wildlife and views.
Meanwhile, lurking in the background is the environmentalists' bête noire, coal. Britain has approved ten new opencast coal mines, and China is building new coal-fired power stations this year with a capacity exceeding that of the entire UK electricity grid. That will make China the world's largest emitter of greenhouse gases, and more than offset any reductions the developing nations manage. And in America some 45 new coal-fired power plants are under construction or have obtained planning permission.
So it's going to be a long road from Bali to a meaningful agreement to reduce emissions. Followers of the new road map will have to pass through Washington, Beijing and New Delhi, places that have not yet been coloured a deep shade of green.

And they would only one -- to five days to go before voters head to the polls the presumptive Republican nominee for president spoke to a group of great Americans.
Now at the VFW national dimension governor Mitt Romney vowed to the audience.
Our veterans or in attendance at his administration will never apologize.
For the greatness.
Of this country watch this.
The president's policies that made it harder to recover from the deepest recession.
In seventy years.
Expose the military to cuts that no one can justify.
Our national security secrets.
And -- dealings with other nations.
He has given trust where it is not earned her.
Insult where it was not deserved an apology where it is not do.
How about standing ovation comes less than 24 hours before governor Romney plans to embark on an international trip that will take him somewhere.
That President Obama has avoided while in office out of course being Israel America's closest ally in the Middle East but as a brand new RNC ad points out.
This cold shoulder to the Israeli people's merely one more thing that is -- on the president's priority list.
-- you know things like golf thing and fund raising and parties take a look this is.
Not -- they show -- -- -- -- -- Sometimes people forget the magnitude sometimes -- -- The private sector is doing fine.
The Republican National Committee is responsible for the content of this advertising.
Day even build that in and joining me once -- gonna talk about the current state of the twenty fall campaign former New Hampshire governor Romney advisor.
I guess you can call a one man Romney supporting wrecking crew John Sununu is back -- are.
I'm back here now the problem is the president actually believes that garbage and that's what's wrong with this administration.
-- -- If you get -- -- -- all right out of the box you know what's very interesting to make -- human on the program and you debated Juan Williams he'll be here later tonight.
And people say that's what Romney needs they need to fight harder and harder and harder.
Why are the surrogates is passionate -- you -- Well they're probably not as crazy as I am so that's a great advantage to hook.
Let's let's talk a little bit about what this president just -- ahead of those pieces -- -- that's a president.
That first of all tell the business community they they didn't do it and then he -- this thing out by trying to pretend that that's not what he meant.
Not you know that's what he meant because it when he -- and that funny talk.
Cadence of pay as you know he's gonna introduce class warfare and that's what he did -- that statement.
He condemns success.
He wanted the business people did -- his -- and his constituencies.
-- think that all business success should be shared with everyone that there's nothing individual about it.
That's denying the American dream.
All right so -- -- you he hasn't you -- you look at his work he's -- a lot of golf has a ton of fundraising lot of Hollywood friends Anna -- -- Sarah Jessica -- we know what he's been doing.
So it the president goes out today -- -- -- to cuts back to back he says we don't need top down economic she's playing.
The class warfare card.
And many claims that his plan worked.
When we released for -- We don't need more top down economics I got a different bit.
That the way you grow the economy is from the middle out.
Leave a -- win.
People -- -- and well.
The country does well.
Just like we drug.
Their plan -- trying to plan in the works.
That's the choice in this election.
That's why I'm running for a second tour.
Your reaction -- -- governor.
He added that he and his plan worked eight point 2% unemployment.
And you have the private sector is doing -- this this campaign this president his administration in his campaign did delusional.
They're out there trying to convince first of all themselves that things are okay.
And then they're trying to convince their constituents.
Einstein had -- saying that.
That insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.
Then in my opinion has also a definition of incompetence.
And that's what these guys are doing the same thing over and over again.
Keeping us at eight point 2% and somehow they're expecting a different result I -- doesn't work.
Well it hasn't worked but we have five trillion dollars in debt on top of that now when George Bush was president and he was running in July of 2008.
He said that George Bush was irresponsible and he used his this word.
For four trillion dollars in -- that George Bush accumulated -- eight years he accumulated five trillion.
And it in in three and a half years and we have fewer Americans working today how does he make the case that America is better off.
Or -- -- well America's not better off and he knows it in his art.
And that's what you're seeing in his desperate efforts this silliness of of -- or are being ignorant about the fact.
That that his White House leaked.
Intelligence data that is crucial to America is horrible and that's an act of desperation in the campaign.
Senator Feinstein said yesterday that it did come out of the White House today she got -- -- and she walked it back.
But the fact is Corey -- president but he's crying -- anything.
To take change the subject from his failure.
There's a president corridor -- -- now that he is Cory Booker.
I -- back any any comment that you make -- that he was embarrassing as I thought he spoke his mind and he was forced to do something.
-- you know some have compared it like a hostage video.
That that he made art let it let me go to this.
The campaign is now in the red the last two months they've outspent the Romney campaign meaning Obama by -- -- one of the last two months.
They had always attacks the latest being the main attacks.
The poll numbers show that the president's unfavorable rating is you know -- favorable rating now is down -- 36% CBS New York Times.
Can he win with reelect numbers like that unfavorable rating of 48%.
It makes it awfully hard and -- we have to give the Romney campaign some credit.
They know that they were gonna get this kind of an attack.
Between the time they kind of clinched the nomination.
And the convention that's the week it's time for a challenging nominee and they've held their fire.
And let the president raise his own negatives the president has spend all that money.
Raising his own negatives.
There are people out there that still think this man is Smart.
How can you think he is Smart when he spending that -- money to raise his own negatives you have any thoughts on who governor Romney should pick for vice president.
I think -- -- it's going to be one of the names that have been floated around and and I'm a great supporter of what I call the safe pick either.
Either Pawlenty appointment or rubio or someone like that or -- McDonald's.
They're all good people the great advantage that the Republican Party has today on that issue there's a lot of great choices right now there's a reason why -- call -- the one man Romney you know -- wrecking -- you know that's governor thank you for being with us -- -- -- our -- and --

Full Time AAMI Park, Melbourne
The RaboDirect Rebels made the Brumbies sweat for their 27-19 victory in Melbourne on Friday night, in a match that was anyone's for the taking right until the end.
After allowing the Australian conference leaders to take an early lead, the Rebels worked their way back into the contest by half-time, and could have gone into the changing rooms with the lead but for a disallowed try just before the break.
The Brumbies made their weight of possession tell in the second half, however, and kept the scoreboard ticking over as the home side were repeatedly penalised at the breakdown. Try as they might, the Rebels just couldn't claw back the narrow deficit before the final whistle sounded.
Head Coach Damien Hill said his side had enough opportunities, but their inability to take their chances ultimately cost them.
"We had enough possession and enough field position in that second half to score points, and it is disappointing that we weren't able to convert that pressure into points," said Hill.
"The effort's definitely there –execution and maybe a little bit of discipline at times let us down."
It was a jittery start for the Rebels, with early breakdown infringements gifting the Brumbies a 9-0 headstart from the boots of Jesse Mogg and Zac Holmes.
Luke Jones and Cadeyrn Neville led the Rebels back into the match with crashing runs at the Brumbies' defence, and eventually the sustained pressure resulted in a penalty that allowed Julian Huxley to rein in the deficit.
The referee was sharp on the breakdown from the very beginning, and quickly lost patience with the Rebels for not rolling away. Jono Owen ultimately paid the price with 10 minutes in the sin bin, and the Brumbies quickly made their advantage count as centre Andrew Smith crossed for a try as the desperate Melbourne defence ran out of numbers.
Huxley kicked two penalties following a sustained period of attacking pressure to bring the score back to 14-9 as half-time approached, before a brilliant break from James Hilgendorf almost gave the Rebels the lead.
As the Brumbies defence rushed up from a lineout, the five-eighth skipped his way through a gap and sprinted towards the tryline. The chasing tacklers brought him down agonisingly close to the line, and while his momentum looked to have taken him over, the video referee decided the footage was inconclusive.
The Rebels assaulted the line once again from the ensuing scrum, but try as they might they couldn't make the crucial last few inches to the chalk. A consolation penalty had to suffice, and the teams left the field with the scores at 14-12.
Early points went the way of the Brumbies once again in the second half, as Holmes slotted another short-range penalty.
For a time it seemed as though the Brumbies would have to content themselves with shots at goal, with the Rebels defence holding firm even as trick passes and daring offloads threatened to split them open.
But soon enough the visitors converted their time in Rebels' territory into further points. A pass out of the tackle after a long attacking sequence created an overlap for full-back Robbie Coleman to score, taking the lead out to 24-12.
The Rebels struck back immediately from the restart, however. The ball bounced into the arms of Gareth Delve from the kick-off, and the No. 8 offloaded brilliantly to Cooper Vuna, who swerved and dummied before making for the left corner and diving over. Huxley nailed the difficult kick from out wide to add the extras and cancel out the Brumbies' advantage in an instant.
The two scores seemed to spark the game to life, and some high-tempo, running rugby followed as the match entered the final quarter. But with both sides desperately seeking a decisive score, their execution began to waver and passes went astray.
Eventually the Brumbies managed to gain some breathing space with another penalty, taking their lead to 27-19 as the clock wound down.
But the Rebels had no intention of giving this game up, and spent the final minutes hammering away at the Brumbies' defence. Time was against them however, and a handling error after the siren sounded denied their hopes of earning what would have been a deserved bonus point.
A welcome rest and some valuable recovery time await the RaboDirect Rebels, as the upcoming June international series brings a three-week hiatus to the Super Rugby season. But first they have one more challenge to face.
The conference-leading Brumbies return to AAMI Park on Friday night, and will be confident they can repeat their Round 8 victory.
But with the resurgent Reds now breathing down their necks, the men from Canberra cannot afford any slip ups if they want to guarantee qualification for the finals. They are yet to win in Melbourne, and will have to prove themselves again after their one-point loss last round.
Meanwhile the Rebels will have to draw on all of their strength as a squad to overcome an injury list that was lengthened yet again last weekend, and to bounce back from a below par performance in Wellington.
Despite leaving New Zealand bruised and disappointed with the way they played, the Rebels have quickly regrouped since their return to Melbourne.
"The mood's been positive. We're really looking forward to playing at home this Friday night," said Stirling Mortlock.
"It's a big challenge for us playing against the Brumbies, who are the top of our conference, so a lot of things to be excited about."
Click HERE to watch the video interview with Mortlock.
Jake White's men arrive in Melbourne following an atypical performance of their own last Saturday night.
Normally the most attacking of the Australian teams this season, the Brumbies were instead drawn into a battle of field position with their Queensland rivals. Their incisive backline effectively became spectators as the forwards rumbled, and kicking became the order of the day.
Even so, the Brumbies were the Reds' equals in the arm wrestle, and had a chance to win the contest with a penalty at the death. Sadly for new recruit Zac Holmes, however, his flawless kicking record for the evening expired at the crucial moment.
But while the fear of making mistakes in attack may have cost them last weekend, expect no such restraint on Friday night. The Brumbies will attempt to tire and manipulate the Rebels' defence with their mobile forward pack, waiting for the opportune moment to unleash the backline that has been so dangerous all season.
The Rebels may have plenty of first-choice players on the sidelines, but it is worth remembering that similar circumstances earlier in the season gave newcomer Cadeyrn Neville the opportunity to prove himself in the Super Rugby arena, which led to his recent selection in the Wallabies train-on squad.
With the Melbourne crowd behind them once again for their penultimate home game of the season, Mortlock had no doubt that the Rebels would raise their game for the top side in Australia this year.
"We love being back at home, we love playing at AAMI Park. We get such tremendous support. Our members are amazing - they're so vocal," said Mortlock.
"You really like playing against the best, and at the moment the Brumbies are the best in our conference so it's a great challenge."

Photo Essay:The Blakesburg Fly-In
Antique airplanes—the cream of the crop—fluttered around corn country to celebrate an air mail birthday.
- By airspacemag.com
- AirSpaceMag.com, November 18, 2008
Caroline Sheen
The Antique Airplane Association's annual fly-in in Blakesburg, Iowa, last September paid homage to 90 years of airmail, and some of the visiting craft actually flew mail in the legendary early years. Some of the airplanes are family heirlooms. Some of them are one of a kind. All have a story to tell.
This 1930 Sikorsky S-39 amphibian, for example, is one of only three in existence today: one is at the New England Air Museum in Connecticut, another is at the bottom of Two Lakes in Alaska, and this one belongs to Dick Jackson of Rochester, New Hampshire, who began salvaging sunken S-39s in Alaska in 1964. Johnson spent 40 years rebuilding the S-39 with parts from five carcasses. In 1932, Osa and Martin Johnson bought a twin-engine S-38 BS and a single-engine S-39CS, painted one with zebra stripes and the other with giraffe spots, and shipped them to Cape Town, South Africa, for a 60,000-mile safari. Jackson copied the giraffe paint scheme in homage to the Johnson's explorations. His airplane is the oldest airworthy Sikorsky in the world. The amphibian flew mail from Blakesburg to Ottumwa to Iowa City and back on August 29 and from Blakesburg to Ottumwa and back on August 30.

I remember seeing the two Sikorsky flying boats owned by
Martin and Osa Johnson at the Chanute Airport about 1933 or 1934. We lived in Chanute, Kansas at the time, and took
photographs of both planes (unfortunately, none of the photos exist today).

We got a brief break from the Air Jordan IX 'Kilroy Pack' releases this past weekend, but best believe the group is far from over, with four more pairs yet to arrive. T.I. is apparently on board with the set, popping up at the airport on his way to Howard homecoming with the Air Jordan IX 'Johnny Kilroy' on feet. Click through with us for the latest of a string of T.I.

LionsGate: Piracy a major deciding factor for Blu-ray support
At CES on Monday, I was invited over to the Blu-ray booth to speak with top executives at the major Hollywood studios supporting Blu-ray. And while I didn't have the chance to speak with every studio, I did get to speak with the president and chief operating officer at LionsGate, Steve Beeks.
And while Beeks seemed like he had solid command over the finer points of the movie industry, I was interested to see why his studio chose Blu-ray over the alternative.
Expecting the canned answer like, "Well, we thought it was the superior format and I'm happy to say that we were right," you could imagine my surprise when the very first reason he gave was Blu-ray's piracy controls.
For those of you who don't know, Blu-ray's piracy controls--largely based on AACS, BD+, and BD-ROM Mark--are easily the most stringent format to date and have only partially been circumvented to this point.
Regardless, I was utterly appalled at the thought that with all of its benefits--high-capacity, interesting new features to employ while playing movies, major industry backing--Beeks chose piracy as the first talking point.
Of course, I had to find out more.… Read more

VUITTON HEIST: French police are investigating the theft of several hundred thousand euros' worth of Louis Vuitton merchandise at the Roissy-Charles de Gaulle airport on the outskirts of Paris, a source close to the inquiry said Friday. No further details were available, as the probe was still ongoing, said the source, who requested anonymity in accordance with official policy regarding police investigations in France. Five masked thieves neutralized a security guard and four employees at the airport's freight terminal overnight, making off with around 10 pallets of merchandise valued at a minimum of 300,000 euros, or $400,760 at current exchange, according to French news agency AFP. Officials at Louis Vuitton declined to comment on the report. Earlier this month, thieves made off with parts of the Marc Jacobs spring sample collection in London.

Just found out today my rig was having issues with two projects and wasn't doing work when it should have I had to cancel them and start anew. But I'm going to start having my rig crunch at 100% when I'm not using it/not downloading anything.
Screw it, I'm going to make this rig crunch now even when I'm using it, the team needs the points. (40%-60% depending on what I'm doing.) Plus, the only time I use tons of my CPU power is when gaming, and I've been working more than anything lately.
This is the first day Ive been 100% in about 4 days. Lost a psu and a cpu cooler fan. My luck with hardware the past few weeks has been really horrible. Hopes its over for a while so I can recover my lost ppd's and money.
Unfortunately, my electric bill is getting the better of me. I can no longer fold or crunch full time. Hopefully that will change if my home refinancing goes thru.
With Free-DC showing goose eggs all day I'm surprised that we got any points. I thought everyone had turned off their rigs for the day. I did, didn't you.
Believe it or not, my single i7 rig that is down can get points back up to almost 1.8 million. probably about 3/4 there. That plus all the rigs that peeps have down that's what's causing us to dip into the 1.7's lately.
I've got $600 of computer parts coming next week that include ASUS M4A89GTD PRO AM3 AMD 890GX Motherboard AMD Athlon II X3 435 Processor (damn well better run as an X4) Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus (will use dual fans) and a few other things to get it running. So I should have 4 more cores crunching by the middle of the week. I just wish you guys had been discussing the Corsair H50 last week but I'll find out if I wasted $30.
Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus CP, put the i7 aside for the week and treat your mother to a week of mother days!
You guys think 25 runs on Extreme with IBT is stable or should I give it some more before I put this to work again with WCG???
be careful how much u oc, its delicate balance, u want high enuf oc to be stable for long period of time (months) if u starting to get inconclusive/invalid wcg results mean its unstable and wasted hours of crunching time
The H50 should easily outperform that, it outperforms my Mega Shadow. As far as my mom, she's back home so I'll be keeping a close eye on her helping her and stuff. The i7, it's not a big deal. I can work on once she's in bed and stuff. It's just a Windows Install away. once I install windows on another drive I can transfer my stuff back to it Just let it crunch, if you get no errored results or crashes you are good to go

Pier Market Seafood Restaurant - Pier 39 SF
Online Reservations
This is my third visit in one year. I had 8 people total from Fresno and we had a great meal. I tried your stuffed trout and it unfortunately was a "B". The stuffing was just too much bread and the trout was the the thinnest one I have ever eaten. I felt like all I got was bread stuffing. It may be that is what happens with a thin fish but I would have liked it better without the stuffing. My choice though. Usually I get the salmon burger which I adore. Our waitress was absolutely wonderful. Liana was her name, I think. I used open table and that worked great.
We love coming to this restaurant everytime we visit San Francisco! This was our 3rd visit. The clam chowder is very yummy! We always have a table with a great view of the water and Golden Gate Bridge. The staff is very friendly and accomodating.
Had a wonderful dinner. Would recommend this to family and friends Nice bar and friendly bar tender. Was not hurried through our dinner but felt welcome to take our time. Had a nice table by the window. Clean. Good service
great way to experience the ambiance of Fisherman's Wharf
Really enjoyed the meal! Steamed clams and clam chowder were amazing. Had the Ono special which was great. My dining mate also enjyed the halibut (which looked really good but he wouldn't give me a bite!)
Surprised my wife on her 50th birthday with a trip to San Francisco (We're from Chicago). Picked Pier 39 Seafood market based on internet reviews and location. We weren't let down - the service was quick and very friendly, the food was delicious and the views were wondeful. I got a whole bunch of brownie points for this trip. After dinner we went to view the sea lions, which were right outside the restaurant - what a special night for my wife.Thanks Pier 39!
This is the best place on the pier to eat, the fish is always fresh, well seasoned and the combinations are always amazing. The Salmon, Shrimp, crab special is my favorite. Anyone who comes in from out of town is treated to Pier Market.
great food. our wait time was none. prices are reasonable.
not tourist trap although located conveniently on Pier #39 rated one of the top for clam chowder in SF and did not disappoint with bread bowl as popular option; chowder was chock full of clams worthy of visit
My wife and I had been there before and though it would be a good place to meet some of her high school classmates that were visiting from Texas. It was a great place to meet and have dinner. Service was great and the food very good. We stayed and talked until almost closing. Made for some great memories.
We were being tourists and were dying for fresh San Francisco seafood. This place was right on the pier, with a great view of the water. My boyfriend and I came for lunch and ordered about 6 peoples worth. We just wanted to try everything, and it was all great. What stood out the most though was the service. Our server was extremely personable, gave us pointers on where to go and what to see, the manager brought me a new drink because the soda machine was broken (I didn't even taste anything wrong with my soda). And it was probably the best clam chowder in bread bowl of my life :)
We were only in town for a day and had a tight schedule so we just had to go to a restaurant that had a reservation for our time. We lucked out by finding Pier Market Seafood! The shrimp was so fresh and well prepared, it practically melted in my mouth! We had a window seat, but most seats have a view of the boats as part of the restaurant is stepped up.
I was disappointed about the wine list, but the fish was great.
Our servers name was Gabby, great server, attentive happy personality, very responsive to our needs and informed with particulars of the menu.
Our server, Michael, was outstanding and made it a great experience. We had just finished a sailing trip around the bay and went for a late dinner. Being from Wyoming, we asked the server to recommend a great dish. He suggested the steamed dungeness crab, and it did not dissapoint. We had a great dining experience overlooking the water. The service was great and the food was wonderful. We would come back here again.
We loved this restaurant. We in fact went twice in two days! The clam chowder is wonderful and they sell it so you can take some home. The sour dough bread was terrific. Seafood we had was tasty. Had a great view of the harbor and could see the Golden Gate Bridge on both visits. Also, we had good service on both occasions. We would recommend checking out this restaurant while in the area.
We reserved at this reastaurant, really, as we were a party of six on a busy Friday night and were unable to get into our favorites. However, we all enjoyed our meals, service was excellent and we would go there again. The place does not have as good a view as some of the other Wharf places, but after the sun set it didn't matter anyway.The wine list is small but with a nice variety. The clam chowder was excellent, full of clams, not too thick.and seasoned well. Sour dough bread was great as was my entree- seafood penne, a little short on mussels, but full of fish, clams and shrimp. No complaints from anyone. Good dinners all around
We arrived about 45 early for our reservation and were told it would be about 10-15 minute wait. I thought that was great as the restaurant was busy and we were very early. We sat at the bar and were immediately asked if we would like to see there wine and beer list. The bartender was just wonderful. Our drinks had barely arrived and our buzzer went off that our table was ready. I started to pay the bill and the manager said they would transfer it to our table bill (w/o even asking). Awesome! The food and service was exactly as it was represented on Tripadvisor by others. My wife had the Swordfish and I had the Shrimp Combo. Both meals were outstanding. I highly recommend the Pier 39 Seafood Market, if you only have one dinner to eat in SF.
Food was great, portions were plentiful and the service was fabulous. The people in our group were from the East Coast to the West Coast and everyone loved what they ordered.
Went here with out-of-town friends we had not seen for a long time. Chose Pier Market because of broad menu in case someone in our group didn't like seafood. Everyone seemed to enjoy their meal and service was excellent! It was very open and loud, so probably not the best place for a romantic dinner. It met my expectations and I was not disappointed by the experience. Seafood was fresh, tasty and hot and we did not wait long for our food even though the restaurant was full!
Lovely view, reasonable prices, very good food. Had reservations on a Sat. night, but were seated early. Staff very attentive.
I made reservations in advance and good thing I did. People streamed in and out and tables stay full. Food selection is great and tastes even better! There could be many good reasons to go but where we were in the restaurant was a bit loud. We didn't mind at all but for a romantic dinner you may want to reserve a quiet area.
