Demario Davis a big fan of Jets fan Louie Gonzalez
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. – Usually following an NFL game, dozens if not hundreds of fans will line-up outside MetLife Stadium for a chance to meet a player and grab a photo. For New York Jets linebacker Demario Davis, he'll wade through the throngs hoping to find one man: Louie Gonzalez. The story of Gonzalez has become well-known over the past several months. A former resident of New York City who now lives in Florida, Gonzalez is a lifelong Jets fan who suffers from a rare brain disorder. Over the...

Geek Girl in Hollywood: Don't cyberbully Joss Whedon (or anyone)
In thinking about what to write about today, a wave of exhaustion fell over me. Here I was thinking I'd be talking about May the 4th Be With You and the incredible "Star Wars" memories I heard all day. How it united us as a culture and how, after exactly one year of running a website that celebrates women in geekdom, I still marvel at the awesomeness of the impact those stories have on us. Yeah, except that when I woke up this morning, I read about Joss Whedon being driven off of Twitter by...

LeSean McCoy can't settle his beef: Calls Chip Kelly a racist
LeSean McCoy is a little bitter about being traded to Buffalo after growing up in Harrisburg, PA, going to college in Pittsburgh and playing his entire pro career as an Eagle. And in an interview with ESPN the Magazine, he let loose another undignified shot at his former head coach Chip Kelly, outright calling the coach a racist. "The relationship was never really great," McCoy told ESPN in an exclusive interview. "I feel like I always respected him as a coach. I think that's the way he runs...

Recipe: Diet friendly tofu brownies
When people mention tofu, I immediately associate it with savory dishes like Chinese mapo tofu, Korean spicy tofu soup, or Japanese miso tofu soup. But tofu and brownies? That is not a combination I'd ever think of. I learned recenty that tofu makes a good substitute for butter. A cup of butter, which has 184 grams of fat, can be substituted with a cup of tofu, which has 6 to 7 grams of fat. To cut down on fat even more, you can use more cocoa powder and reduce the amount of dark chocolate. ...

Former Olympian Bryan Clay removes daughter's tooth with javelin throw
Whenever you think back to the time when you were trying to remove your baby tooth, you always remember wiggling it until it comes out, or if you were daring enough, you would let someone tie floss or fishing wire to a doorknob and closing it shut so it pulls the tooth out. This former Olympic gold medalist athlete has taken tooth extraction to the next level.

The evidence of New Yorkers' resilience in the wake of tragedy is everywhere in Lower Manhattan.

Review: 'Maggie' actually doesn't do enough with serious Schwarzenegger

Deflate-gate report: Tom Brady knew Patriots broke rules

Geek Girl in Hollywood: Why a woman should direct 'Wonder Woman' and 'Captain Marvel'
I spent the weekend on panels at Wizard World Las Vegas and more than a little of the time was taken up talking about whether or not it's important to have a female director for the upcoming "Wonder Woman" and "Captain Marvel" movies.

Yes, I do think both films should be directed by women. Wait, don't throw thermal...

GRUNTING, THAT LOUD, sometimes obnoxious noise produced when we exercise — has been an ongoing source of debate among psychologists.
From a scientific standpoint, the grunting noise is made as we "exhale against a closed, or partially closed, vocal fold," said Dennis O'Connell, a professor of physical therapy at the Holland School of Sciences & Mathematics in Texas.
The vocal folds, or vocal cords, refer to the two bands of muscle tissue that open into the windpipe. The vocal folds are open and relaxed when we breathe in, sometimes producing a rushing noise. But when the vocal folds close as we exhale "you are going to hear some turbulence," said O'Connell.
The reason we grunt is slightly more complicated. Some experts say it improves performance; others say it's just blowing smoke.
Belisa Vranich, a psychologist at willspace, a boutique training studio in New York City, believes grunting is a natural and necessary physical response to exerting effort.
"Think about tennis," she said. "When you hit the ball, it's hard to be explosive and not grunt."
And if you're not grunting, you should be, because it gives you more power. "It helps you push more weight, hit harder, and throw farther," said Vranich.
When we do something like squats or power lifting, we take air in and hold our breath for a moment. By doing that, the middle of our body gets squished together, creating a pressure ball in our belly that makes the body rigid in order to stabilize and protect our spine from injury, said Vranich.
All that pressure built up inside our gut means that when we finally do exhale "it's almost impossible to let that energy out without making a grunt," said Vranich.
Scientists don't know exactly why a sharp yell or grunt gives people that extra oomph when they do things like lift weights or swat at a tennis ball, but it's probably related to a communication signal from the part of the brain that controls breathing to the part that controls muscle function, said O'Connell.
When we forcefully push air out, the brain sends information down to the muscles, which either excites muscle groups or decreases inhibition — or both. The result is enhanced performance.
Source: Presseye/Darren Kidd/INPHO
This beneficial effect of grunting was demonstrated in a study of college tennis players. O'Connell's students found that grunting increased serve and forehand velocity by an average 4.5 mph. It didn't matter if the players were regular grunters, if they were male or female, or how they felt about grunting.
Although grunting seems like a natural reaction, Vranich said unnecessary or excessive grunting is annoying. That kind of testosterone-pumped animalistic sound designed to psych the person up and get adrenaline going — or even intimidate a competitor — is rooted more in psychology than in physiology.
The controversy over whether grunting should be allowed or discouraged is growing, particularly at the gym and on the tennis court, where it can be distracting.
In 2006, a bodybuilder was kicked out of a Planet Fitness for grunting, which violated the club's strict "no-grunting policy." Shortly after that incident, a man was attacked at an Equinox gym in New York City for being too noisy in spin class.
O'Connell recognises that grunting maximises force production. He also believes that all the hooting and hollering can be controlled, and that there are quieter breathing techniques for achieving comparable muscle activity and peak force.
A recent study from O'Connell's department found that in a simulated forehand stroke, athletes got the same power boost from grunting as they did by forcefully expelling air.
"Forced exhalation without the annoying sound is just as good at increasing force production as exhaling with the annoying sound," said O'Connell.
O'Connell offered an anecdote from his daughter's softball games, where he would overhear dads telling their kids to grunt. If you can be coached to grunt, he said, then you could certainly be coached to exhale without grunting.

The NIH agrees with the government advisory board's recommendation to publish both controversial bird flu studies in full.
Science adviser John Holdren speaks out about how the Presidential Administration is handling the controversial research that rendered avian flu transmissible between ferrets.
Biosecurity board recommends publication of data detailing transmissibility of H5N1 avian influenza.
During development, the cells of an embryo change their pattern of gene expression, which allows them to detach from their original location and migrate to another part of the embryo, where the pattern changes again to allow formation of a new organ.
A flood of new discoveries has refined our definition of cancer stem cells. Now it's up to human clinical trials to test if they can make a difference in patients.
The creation of H5N1 bird flu strains that are transmissible between mammals has thrown the scientific community into a heated debate about whether such research should be allowed and how it should be regulated.
A new policy will require federal agencies to perform a careful review of research involving 15 pathogens and toxins that could be used for bioterrorism, including H5N1.
Monitoring of bird flu outbreaks around the world is spotty, with most countries performing little in the way of genetic analysis.
A series of articles published in open access journal mBio underscores the variety in opinion on whether a transmissible H5N1 strain should be studied.
Biosecurity agency will give controversial H5N1 bird flu research another look-over in light of new data and clarification.

Anniversary celebrations for Quebec-based tissue and packaging company Cascades will extend to all of the company's units and their respective regions, and continue from March 26 to the end of the summer.
"In 1964, we brought the old Dominion Paper Co. mill back to life with help from the community. At the time, we had little idea that our bold gamble would transform into a grand adventure that would stand the test of time and take us around the world. Now, 50 years later, we are celebrating our economic, environmental and social success through numerous activities that will remind us just how far we have come," explains Bernard Lemaire, one of the three brothers who founded Cascades.
On March 26, 2014, Cascades' official birthday, all of the company's one hundred or so units will be invited to celebrate the historic event with their employees. A morning ceremony will take place in Kingsey Falls at the very first Cascades mill. In the evening, the Lemaire brothers will pay tribute to all of the company's builders. Customers, suppliers, financial partners and the mill's original employees will be invited to a gala in recognition of their outstanding contributions to Cascades' success.
"We owe this success to the men and women who believed in Cascades and in us. Indeed, this is why we are so proud to have been able to arrange certain activities in celebration of our 50th anniversary; activities that will really let our region shine," said Laurent Lemaire.
This summer, Kingsey Falls will be host to many events. The Boréalis museum (interpretation centre on the history of the paper industry) in Trois-Rivières will bring the Generations exhibition, featuring the great families of Québec's paper industry, to Kingsey Falls. The Collection Loto-Québec will make a stop in Kingsey Falls, where it will present an exclusive exhibit highlighting paper through the artistic creation Support papier. Other activities will take place throughout the summer season, including an open house at the Cascades units, and performances in Parc Bernard-Lemaire.
In 2013, as a means of thanking the community for their support, the Lemaire brothers announced the construction of a new footbridge made of recycled materials and used paper machine parts spanning the Nicolet River. Both artistic and practical, the footbridge will connect the municipal park with Parc Marie-Victorin. The footbridge will be inaugurated on May 8, the same day as the annual general meeting of Cascades shareholders, also being held in Kingsey Falls.
A number of partners will also pay tribute to the Lemaire brothers and celebrate their accomplishments. On April 16, the Fondation de l'entrepreneurship will hold a gala for the three founders, where they will be honoured by the Québec business community. The local microbrewery, the Hermite, will even brew a 50th anniversary beer.
"The 50th anniversary of the founding of Cascades gives us the opportunity to revisit and celebrate our history and that of the Lemaire brothers. Bernard, Laurent and Alain Lemaire are giants on the Québec business scene and in sustainable development, and we are their heirs. It falls upon us to continue building on this legacy and to carry Cascades into the future," concluded Mario Plourde.
Cascades produces, converts and markets packaging and tissue products that are composed mainly of recycled fibres.

Buck Bundy December 13, 2013 8:42 AM F1 » F1 to introduce pole trophy Am I the only one who doesn't think this is so bad? If this was a trophy for each race then it would be crap, as the reward for pole is starting at the front. As this trophy is for best qualifier in the season then it just gives an extra impetus to go for it in qualifying. I do however think an extra point for pole, fastest lap, and lets not forget leading most laps would be better.

Comments about Green Steel Trunk with Optional Cedar Lining and Wheels:
This product was a gift, and was used within the hour it was received. I did not expect it to arrive on Dec. 24th. I was told it would not ship until the 29th. This was one of the best purchases I have made in the last year. Everything was smooth about it. There is not one disappointing feature about this product, or with my experience in ordering over the phone. She (I forgot her name) was very personable and pleasant to deal with. I would definitely buy from Hayneedle again. Even though I'm not sure what I would buy, I look forward to dealing with them again.

Has anyone used a company to insert a liner over the existing bathtub and walls? Were you happy with the results and what were the approximate cost?
I live in a condo and this is my only bathroom therefore living without a bathtub/shower for a few days is not an easy option. Any other recommendations?
There is water damage on the back wall. Beforehand I'll remove the drywall/tiles on the back wall and then I'll redrywall the back wall fixing the water damage.
Your comments are appreciated....thanks!

as far as I am concerned, it is lipstick on a pig. with water damage on the walls, you are just covering up mold, it is still there.If your tub is otherwise in good shape, get a quote for doing a tiled shower surround, it may not be as bad as you think, and way nicer than the plastic covers.

The only time I'd do it if I was selling it. I just re did my bathroom, actually its an on going project. But like other says, get it done right. I gutted my whole bathroom, I was just planning to get a new tub and surround, but it was all rotted and crap, but its a lot nicer now.

Yes it's nice if you can do a full gut, but when you only have one bathroom, time does become very important unless you plan to live elsewhere for a while.
Some neighbours of mine had Bathfitters do their bathroom and it was every bit as good and attractive as the one piecers usually installed in new builds (it's also the same material). It was also done in less than a day and they were very pleased with it (and these were people who don't do low end finishes so for them to be happy with it says quite a bit). Cost was about $3500 and I can tell you from experience, getting a new tub and tiles will run you at least that plus any damage to floors getting the tub out.
I can tell you from what has happened at my house, it's a day to get the old tub out and new one in (depending on what type it is and how easy they can cut the floor and wall away) which includes new fixtures installed, a day to get the old shower walls down and new cement board up, another day to seal the seams, lay new subfloor (remember you have to do a new floor from cutting out the tub). Add at least 3 days to tile, grout, and seal shower enclosure and floor because you have to allow for drying/setting time. Prices depend on what you choose to do but min is probably at least $3500 and you have little access to your bathroom for a week. So, Bathfitters a good alternative with a much nicer look than the plastic coves you get at the hardware store. They also offer different finishes so you don't have to go with plain white anymore.
It's definitely worth a look because they are pretty good for the price and they are also very easy to live with since there are minimal seams and they are sealed.Reply With Quote LOG IN TO THANK No one has yet thanked Dustbunny for this post.

I've seen them and personally think its a waste of $$$$,,, quality? I dont think so.
Renovations are never convenient. You lose your bathroom,, well thats the price of replacement. You can buy a temp shower unit which you can use in a basement laundry room,,, or go to family or the local rec center etc. There are ways if you want to replace something properly and not cover up the old. Spend the extra few grand to do it rightReply With Quote LOG IN TO THANK No one has yet thanked fireguy9 for this post.

We used another company (can't remember their name) in our old house to cover up an old bathtub and the walls around it. They were much cheaper than Bathfitters, and also got everything done in a day, and did a very good job. While I agree it's only a band-aid solution, it definitely does a good job escpecially with time and budget constraints.
I would have to consider the age of the condo, and how long you plan to be there before suggesting to go this route or get the job done properly, and maybe rent a hotel room for a couple of nights.Reply With Quote LOG IN TO THANK No one has yet thanked spdztr for this post.

Everyone's comments are much appreciated.
And that's my dilemma I'm planning on moving in about a year (the condo is about 15 yrs old) and the bathtub and surround need to be fixed beforehand. I am planning on getting a 'reputable' company to do the work and I have heard somewhat positive comments regarding the refitting companies. My understanding is they use better and more solid material then that bought at the big box construction stores.
I don't want to spend a tone of money (or time) redoing the entire bathroom therefore just want to focus on the bathtub and surround. But, most importantly I want this job done right.
Any other comments are great, thanks!Last edited by Sct4; Nov 15th, 2007 at 10:41 AM.

I can tell you that a friend of ours in the rental business uses Bathfitters. As Dustbunny said, about $3500 and up, depending on what you choose. The units are much better quality that what you'll find for tub surrounds in the big box stores. He was hesitant at first being that he's dealing with rental units. Generally, renters are very rough on stuff and don't generally maintain or take care of things. He was leary of scratching, etc. He now has some that have been installed for close on 10 years and they still look good...

I had Bathfitters do my tub several years ago, everything else was fine but the tub was a mess. It cost around 500 if I remember but I don't regret it. it was a full days work, just for the tub and it looks great. A year earlier I had the tub refinished and it peeled in sections, checked the guarantee, what a waste of paper. But do fix the damage before hand

While bypassing the Security Patch to allow for an unrestricted access to the Outlook objects, Redemption does provide several layers of security to help you minimize a change of a rogue code using taking advantage of Redemption.
Using AuthKey property. Once AuthKey property is set to some value, all Redemption objects must set AuthKey property to the same value before any other properties can be used:
Dim sContact, oContact
set sContact = CreateObject("Redemption.SafeContactItem") sContact.AuthKey = "SecretKey" set oContact = Application.Session.GetDefaultFolder(10).Items(1) sContact.Item = oContact MsgBox sContact.Email1Address |
If you want to change the value of the AuthKey property, you need to first set it to the old value (so that Redemption knows that you are a legitimate user), then reset it to a new value. Or you can delete HKCU\Redemption registry key (note a couple funny looking characters - Redemption uses a Unicode name to make the key inaccessible to the scripts). The registry keys contain hashes of the paths to either original or customized copies of Redemption.dll and hashes of the authentication keys; since only hashes are stored, there is no way to deduct the real values of the dll paths and authentication keys.
Dim sContact, oContact
Create a truly custom version of Redemption with custom class names and GUIDs. Distributable version of Redemption comes with a customization tool (customize.exe) that lets you create a custom copy of Redemption (it is not available in the demo version). AuthKey property (see above) will only apply to your copy of Redemption: your code will not be affected by other instances of the Redemption library installed by other applications, as well as other applications will not even be aware of your customized version of Redemption.
Warning: as of version 5.3, Redemption.dll and Redemption64.dll are digitally signed; customizing them would render the digital signature invalid. Please contact us at email@example.com to receive the unsigned version of the dlls (please include your registration details).
versions of Redemption are guaranteed not to interact with other instances
of Redemption, either original or custom. Creating a custom version of
Redemption along with using the AuthKey property significantly reduces a
chance of malicious code using Redemption.
Note that to use a custom version of Redemption, your VB code must use CreateObject() function rather than New.
E.g. the code like
Dim sItem as Redemption.SafeMailItem |
Dim sItem as Redemption.SafeMailItem |
On the
low level, in the first example VB hardcodes the class GUID of
Redemption.SafeMailItem and if you modify the dll name and/or class name the
second line will fail.
If you
use the second example, VB does not hardcode the class GUID. I.e. you still
dim your variable as Redemption.SafeMailItem (since it is only used at
design time by VB), but to create an instance of the object, you must
specify the modified class name ("MyDll.MyMailItem")
If you
are using C++, this means that you need to either use
CoCreateInstance() passing
the modified class GUID or call CLSIDFromProgID()
to obtain the
(modified) class GUID, then call CoCreateInstance() In case of C# or other .Net languages, you can use the code similar to
that given below (it is assumed that you have already created the interop
Type t = Type.GetTypeFromProgID("MyDll.MyMailItem"); Note: Redemption installs itself as an Exchange Client
Extension (ECE) for the performance reasons (it retrieves IMAPISession
directly from Outlook for use by the Safe*Item objects). If your code runs
outside the outlook.exe process (i.e. it is not an Outlook COM add-in), you
will not benefit from Redemption being an ECE. In such a case, you can turn
the ECE functionality off by un-checking the ""Install Redemption as an
Exchange Client Extension" checkbox (see step 4 on the screenshot above). An
additional benefit is that you will be able to replace the dll even if
Outlook is running since it only loads Redemption.dll if Redemption is
installed as an ECE.
SafeMailItem sItem = (SafeMailItem) Activator.CreateInstance(t);
Use Registry-free COM (Windows XP or later) (See "Creating Registration-Free COM Objects" on MSDN and "Simplify App Deployment with ClickOnce and Registration-Free COM" in MSDN Magazine). Windows XP allows COM objects to be used without requiring that they be registered. If your application uses a manifest file, you can request that you want Windows to load the specified COM objects from the directory where your executable resides rather than query the registry for the location of the COM library.
To use this feature add (or modify) the manifest file and provide the following (bolded) entries. Note that registry-free COM can be used with other methods discussed above
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> |
Similar to registry-free COM, you can explicitly load Redemption library and create instances of its creatable objects without registering the dll in the registry or even using an application manifest. On the low level, all in-proc COM libraries (dlls) export DllGetClassObject function that the COM system uses after looking up the dll location through the class name/CLSID in the registry. Since you know the Redemption dll location, there is no reason to create any registry entries for the COM system. You will still need to register Redemption in the registry on your development machine to be able to import the type library and/or create the interop dll (in case of .Net languages). At run-time however, you can simply copy Redemption.dll/Redemption64.dll to the target folder and use RedemptionLoader class to create Redemption objects.
//tell the app where the 32 and 64 bit dlls are located
//by default, they are assumed to be in the same
folder as the current assembly and be named
and Redemption64.dll
RedemptionLoader.DllLocation64Bit =
RedemptionLoader.DllLocation32Bit =
//Create a Redemption object and use it
RDOSession session =
Missing.Value, Missing.Value,
RedemptionLoader class can be downloaded here (C#, VB.Net, unmanaged C++ and Delphi versions are included).

Stanford's offense got a big boost for 2013 with the announcement that former running back Tyler Gaffney would return to the team after taking a year off to play minor league baseball with the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Gaffney will rejoin the team on April 1. After his junior season, Gaffney was selected in the 24th round by Pittsburgh. In one season with the Class A State College Spikes, he hit .297 with 6 doubles, 5 triples, 10 RBIs and a .483 on-base percentage.

Hey guys. I'm looking at buying rear windows for my '84. The guy I talked to is parting out a '90. Will these fit? The windows in question are the rear...not the rear passanger door windows, not the barn door windows...the long ones. Thanks for the help.
Dang I'de settle for "I don't know". Don't be snobs people. I know my old 'burb is a truck while your "SUV" is closer to a car...don't be intimidated I won't judge you...
I'm going to say it should fit since you're staying in the same body style, but it may not. I have a 91 and I know it's the last year of the 80s bodystyle. Hope this helps...
Suburban Windows!!!!!!. Okay I also have a 1990 Chevrolet Suburban. Very good vehicles by the way.lol. But I am about 95% sure that the wndows should fit in your 1984 Chevrolet Suburban. They are worht buying and in the end if they dont fit just ebay them or something. But im pretty sure that they soudl fit. Thanks, A.J. Hall!.
Well the windows are gonna cost me 24 Fosters so yeah I guess I can't go wrong. Mostly I asked so I would'nt waste the 1 1/2 hr. round trip. Thank's for the advice folks.
I have posted this before on other threads. Bone yards, have substitution books, have never seen any online yet. They will be able to tell you for sure if they work. A simple phone call to any yard will give you the answer. Just don't ask right away what years fit, ask if they have a set, then ask what years fit. They get a little upset sometimes when you just ask for info. If the body styles are the same I see no reason why they won't work.
ok 1st ---sorry i do not know first hand. 2nd call a glass shop (for autos) they will be able to tell you and sometimes they will make a better installed deal. i called on a few windshields and they had an over stock and beat the deal i had setup and they installed it for free....mike
Mike. I will definately have a glass shop install the windows, so yeah maybe I should call em and see. When I took it in for a windsheild chip the guy told me I don't even wanna know what he'd charge for the laminated tinted glass. The windows I've found are from a parts rig. The guy wants a case of beer for them so I doubt I'll beat that price...even at a junkyard.
hmm.....now I'm really interested in finding out how much those windows DO cost. If I were to replace those windows, I'd probably go with the clear glass windows so that I could have aftermarket tint applied. I like the factory tinted glass with the exception that it isn't dark enough for my tastes from the factory, and I want to be able to control exactly how dark the glass is....
Interesting you say that. My 'burbs current windows are very dark. Was there more than one tint available? My rig is a fully loaded Silverado so it's possible this tint was an option (must have been a sweet truck when brand new). What I like is that the factory tint windows are laminated while the clear are tempered. Seems like a little extra protection for the rear passangers.

One Flew Under The Cuckoo's Nest
Paperback, 339 Pages
Ships in 3-5 business days
At New Hope Hospital, Psychiatrists pick and choose from an A-Z of Diagnosis. A new patient loses his name and gains a label: Anorexic, Bulimic, Catatonic, Depressed or Whatever. These vulnerable and fragile patients seek out help and a little TLC. They want to be listened to and understood. But there's no time. Instead, they are often given disempowering treatment, numbing medication, and the stigma of mental illness. They wonder if anyone cares.
Nearing Christmas, Dominic's head is crammed with voices. Lisa is in a daze and Nathan has the shakes. Rocking in unison, they hold onto themselves tightly because no one else will hold them. They are alonetogether.
Jason visits his schizophrenic wife in a secure ward. She's on the floor, motionless, unreachable. With 'Care in the Community' he now provides 24-7 care. They are alonetogether. He sees no future. He wonders if anyone cares about the carer.

BOISE — Leaders of a private canal company seeking to build a $27 million dam along the Bear River in southeastern Idaho are asking the state's water chief to reverse a July ruling that dealt a potentially fatal blow to the project.
The Twin Lakes Canal Co. has filed an administrative appeal with the Idaho Department of Water Resources over the agency's initial denial of a winter water right permit — one of a handful of permits and licenses the company needs to build and operate the dam.
In July, an agency administrator ruled the dam along the Oneida Narrows section of the river near Preston would conflict with multi-state water compact and potentially the rights of irrigators as far downstream as Utah. Program Manager James Cefalo also concluded the public benefits of building the dam don't outweigh the benefits of leaving that stretch of the river free flowing and untouched.
Canal company officials say Cefalo's decision contained factual errors, analytically flawed and in some places gave too much weight for considering the public interest at stake in the project.
"Our appeal points out a lot of discrepancies in that decision, especially with the public interest section," Clare Bosen, president of the canal company, told The Associated Press Monday. "We're confident that this is something that meets public interest goals for clean water, renewable energy and improving the economy."
The decision on the water right application now rests with Gary Spackman, director of IDWR. Spackman said he expects to issue his decision in late October.
In the meantime, the canal company is moving forward with other aspects of the project. Bosen said project consultants are filing final reports on water quality and other issues to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.
The proposal envisions a 108-foot high dam capable of generating 10 megawatts of power and a reservoir capable of storing water that can extend the growing season for 230 canal company stockholders. Boson said changes in climate and other factors are enabling farmers to get an earlier start in the spring and run later in the fall, but the lack of storage water is hurting the ability to take advantage of the opportunities.
"This year we're out of water already. There was a lot of land that wasn't planted and a lot right now that is not getting irrigated," he said.
The dam is proposed along a stretch more than four miles downstream of a hydroelectric dam operated by PacifiCorp Energy and more than 25 miles upstream of the Cutler Dam in Utah's Cache Valley. The utility initially threw its support behind the proposed dam, but has since backed off after determining a new dam would conflict with its existing hydroelectric license.

Hi, there is no question on the visa application about your previous finances etc, they ask if you will be bringing any money with you so I wouldn't have thought it would be a problem or stop you getting a visa.
I imagine a few people out there just leave their debt in UK and never pay once they get their visa and get into OZ.?? - anyone got an opinion on this?

Just a really short short I did to keep a steady upload rate on my account... However, it was mostly to test a few things in flash.
No that is not my OC.
It's a character in a (POSSIBLE) upcoming series of animations.
And to put this in perspective, she's blind, going only by hearing.

The combination of rain and blood definitely gave a dramatic feel to it. I couldn't help but think either this pony is preparing for battle or he/she is getting ready to "Take care of somepony." The black and gray coloring gives it a sort of Sin City feel which in its own way is artistic. I noticed the pony in this animation had no pupils which can lead to a story of its own, or it can lead to the viewer deciding which pony it is, this adding to the creative aspect of the viewer. It was short and a little disappointing to those expecting a story to go with it, but I as most understand how difficult animation can be with limited resources. Otherwise this animation is awesome and in its own way, very artistic. Grate Work.
The Artist thought this was FAIR
47 out of 51 deviants thought this was fair.
It's okay for a short animation. Not going lie here. There is some animation mistake in the water. It jumps. Not much color there either... BUT this was used for an impact and a hint of technique with some vision to. The originality, eh... i haven't seen animations like this, but the lack of color is not very original. I do however like the pink eye and the blood. They stand out with vibrancy. The colors resonant from the grey, making them stand out. The sound is also pretty high quality. What really made this shine is the diliverance. Nice work. I hope to see more. The only thing not giving technique it's five stars is the rain.
The Artist thought this was FAIR
40 out of 48 deviants thought this was fair.
(facepalm) My bad. lol After seeing it again, I realized it was Rainbow Dash. I guess the grey coloring and the hairdo made me think of Derpy.
China longbow. Nastiest long range wepeon at the time. Even deadllyer in the hands of a master.
The first Arrow did not hit right in the bulls eye... was that the homing shot? Since every one after that seems to have hit right on the spot.
But how does she use a bow without opposable thumbs..? *mind blown*
Seriously though, I love it.
Seriously though, I love it.
Very nice, personally i would have given the pony more droopy, wet hair. But thats just me. Over all pretty awesome.

Its ok.
You always help cheer me up :)
Yes I do, but I have gotten used to it.
Yes I feel alone all the time even at work or on a night out with some friends I just feel so alone but it is my fault as I cannot let people get close as I fear they will just hurt me
Do I feel like I'm a loan? No. Neither a borrower nor a lender be. That's my motto.
Ultimately we are all alone.

We are individuals.

It's up to us, you, as a person on how alone you want to be.
All the time :( Its the worst feeling ever.
More than you could imagine.
no...........i'm never alone
haha it's more of a self evident axiom rather than a feeling :P
~Always.. :'( everyday and every-night ~
it's ok, as long as i live i just hold back the tears... :'(
I sure do sometimes. No matter how much lip service i get, I know that no one really gives a ****.
I know, baby. I mean the people I see everyday, with the fake smiles. I believe that you are honest, and mean what you say... most don't.
Get yourself a dog its the best friend you will ever have

Lovely local grocer!!
I do my weekly fruit, veg, herbs, pasta, bread and deli-goods shopping there usually and find that their produce are seasonal, fresh and great value.
Our weeky shop there usually comes in at under $100.. and that includes cheese, italian/spanish sausages, stock and canned goods as well as the stuff I've already mentioned.

Ugolny Airport (Russian: Аэропорт Угольный) (also Leninka, Ugolnyye Kopi, Ugolnoye) (IATA: DYR, ICAO: UHMA) is a mixed-use military and civil airfield in Siberia located 11 km east of Anadyr, separated from the town by the waters of Anadyrsky Liman. The airfield was originally constructed sometime in the 1950s as a staging base for Long Range Aviation bombers such as the Tupolev Tu-95 and Tupolev Tu-22M (as a so-called 'bounce' airdrome), but during the Cold War years it become the primary hub for civilian flights in the Chukotka region.
Though the Soviet-built Ilyushin Il-62 was a workhorse of the route from Moscow Domodedovo International Airport to Anadyr for many decades, in 2006 Transaero began placing US-built Boeing 767-300 aircraft on the route. There is occasional charter aircraft service from Nome, Alaska to Anadyr.
Anadyr's history as a bomber base dates back to the 1950s and the Russian Air Force's OGA (Arctic Control Group) is responsible for maintaining the facility. Interceptors such as the Sukhoi Su-15TM were based at Anadyr from the 1960s to the early 1990s; in 1982, the 171st Fighter Aviation Regiment PVO was transferred from Bombora airfield, Gudauta, in the Abkhazian ASSR of the Georgian SSR to Ugolny.[1] The 171st Regiment reported to the 23rd Air Defence Corps, 11th PVO Army. The regiment was disbanded in 1992. No fighters are currently based there. In 2001 the airfield was visited by Tupolev Tu-95MS and Ilyushin Il-78 aircraft on exercise from Engels air base.
It was featured in the American novel Flight of the Old Dog.
Owing to its geographic location, its long, concrete-reinforced, heavy load-bearing runway, as well as its modern terminal with jet bridges, the airport is well-suited and well-situated for emergency diversion at roughly the midpoint of the northern route trans-Pacific routes. On 2 July 2013 a Korean Air Boeing 777-300 performing a scheduled flight from Chicago to Seoul made an emergency landing at Ugolny after one of its engines had quit in flight.[2]

datasheet would be very helpful! that's just what I need but I cannot find one that matches... all of the ones that I find are just voltage regulators and i know for sure what I have are transistors. (I managed to get one to work as an audio amplifier except the fact I have no clue which lead is truly the base collector or emitter. and there was DC flowing to the output but it was many times louder than just what the headphone output on my computer normally could put out. I cannot take a picture at the moment because I dont have a camera
they appear to be high current transistors (they came out of an old turntable circuitboard and conveniently had wires already coming off of the leads. |

I'm willing to bet it is an adjustable voltage regulator IC. These can even be configured to function as an amplifier, I believe board member Elvee has some examples posted. Look at this data sheet:

The data sheet I directed you to shows the TO-3 style can, the TO-220 and the TO-18 case styles. From what you describe it will be one of the TO-3 types. Please look closely at the data sheet.

Hopefully someone(s) can give some insight on how to proceed...
Our church is currently streaming services and recording them for later upload to facebook and burn to DVDs. We have a situation though. We have loaned a Sony HVR-HD1000U and that camera has broke. I don't know the exact specs of the current PC, but it is an i5 Intel CPU w/6GB and a 300GB HDD, firewire, USB 2.0... I believe they are using the Adobe Flash media encoder and are streaming to Justin.tv
I'm competent on PCs and hardware, but I have almost zero knowledge when it comes to the A/V side.
I guess my question(s) are...
- What would be a good replacement camcorder, the current budget is $800. The camcorder is currently in the back of the sanctuary, approx 80' from the pulpit mounted about 10' high.
- Is there a better setup besides what we are currently using? We don't necessarily care about 1080 filming, but we need the streaming capability with the ability to save for later uploading/distribution.
- Like I said, we are currently using Justin.tv, any thoughts on it? Anything better, easier? We have comcast business class, I'm thinking 30/10mbps.
Thanks for the input!

Bulldog/OEB/AM Bull Agility
I'm wondering if anyone on here has any experience training bulldogs, frenchies, Am bulldogs or Olde english bulldogges in agility.
I'm currently training my OEB for the sport, but wondering if anyone has any personal experience that they can share with training/competing these types of dogs in agility. I am mainly looking for AB or OEB info, but I would be interested in other bully breed info as well. What are the down falls? What's the hardest (generalizing) part about training these breeds specifically in agility? What is their best attributes in the sport? What sorts of "issues" should I watch for? etc etc. I train and compete with my JRT, so this is kind of an "opposite" breed for me - not quite as, umm, smart as a JRT - LOL. Fast though, very powerful, but not a lot of body awareness I find (need to do some major ground work - ladder and such). Thanks in advance!

Jack Donaghy gets the reticent Yorke to open up for WYNC
Two of the more interesting personalities in our current cultural landscape sit down for an hour long interview for radio station WYNC in New York. The host of the Here's The Thing show, Alec Baldwin somehow convinced the usually reticent Thom Yorke to wax loquacious about many a topic, including of course the long history of Radiohead and how it contrasts with his current project Atoms for Peace, as well as his love of Aphex Twin and the Warp Records roster. Anyone who is a fan of Radiohead knows how difficult it is to get Yorke to open up, so this interview is truly enlightening — and illuminates aspects of both creative artist's distinctive personalities.

Asia Vernimo Cruise (born 1990), better known by her stage name Asia Cruise, is an American contemporary R&B singer signed to Hitz Committee/Jive Records.
Originally from Jacksonville, Florida, Cruise was born to a father of Filipino, African American and American Indian descent and a first-generation Cape Verdean American mother. At 10 she attended a youth theater summer camp and, after the reaction she received at her first performance, knew that being a performing artist was her calling.

Really, it about what you get for doubling the speed limit but people do. If it's not enforced then it's not a deterrent. I could cover 1000 miles in the NW motorways and A roads without seeing a copper anywhere.Posted 1 year ago #

NEW YORK/DETROIT (Reuters) - Chrysler Group LLC's second-largest shareholder, a union healthcare trust fund, has tapped Deutsche Bank
The investment bank is advising the trust fund, which is affiliated with the United Auto Workers union, in the midst of intensifying and heated talks with main owner Italian automaker Fiat SpA
The trust fund is weighing the benefits of a gradual sale of its stake through an initial public offering against an outright sale to Fiat, the people said on Wednesday, asking not to be identified because of the confidential nature of the matter.
Fiat, which owns 58.5 percent of Chrysler, wants to buy out the UAW trust and gain full control of the company. But the trust's asking price of more than $5 billion is far more than Chief Executive Sergio Marchionne is willing to pay.
The feud came to a head on Monday when the trust, known as the VEBA, forced Chrysler to file IPO paperwork. The VEBA won the right to do this under the terms of Chrysler's 2009 government-backed bankruptcy restructuring.
The IPO process would put Marchionne, who has run both automakers since 2009, in the awkward spot of having to sell potential investors on a stock offering he has sought to avoid.
He has publicly said an IPO would undermine his plans to merge the two companies and create the world's seventh-largest auto group. Monday's filing now steps up pressure on Marchionne to seal a deal with the VEBA and avoid going public.
The VEBA, which pays medical benefits for blue-collar auto retirees, did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Brock Fiduciary, which has managed the trust's holdings in Chrysler since 2010, and Deutsche Bank declined to comment.
Deutsche Bank has worked with VEBA on other deals in the past. Alain Lebec, the investment banker leading the Brock team, has close ties with Paul Stefanick, co-head of global investment banking coverage and advisory at Deutsche Bank. Both bankers previously worked at Merrill Lynch.
Fiat hired a veteran of the 2009 U.S. auto bailout, Lazard Vice Chairman Ron Bloom, in a bid to break the impasse with the VEBA. JPMorgan Chase & Co
A buyout of the VEBA's stake would allow Fiat to gain full access to Chrysler's cash and technology to stay competitive.
Marchionne has guided the U.S. automaker's unlikely comeback that has pushed its value above $10 billion, according to some analyst estimates. But the talks with the VEBA have tested his considerable talents as a dealmaker.

Not all entrepreneurs need co-founders, but many successful companies -- including Apple, eBay, and Twitter -- were built by multiple leaders with productive relationships.
How did these individuals find their business counterparts? And what made their combined skill-sets a recipe for success?
Not surprisingly, many were long-time friends, classmates, or relatives. Others, however, did not get along initially. Some still are not amicable, despite their joint achievements.
There is a common trend: the most well-rounded pairs recognized their individual limitations and respected what the other could bring to a partnership. Many of these duos have gone on to run some of the most successful businesses of our time.
From Ben and Jerry to Steve Jobs and the Woz.
