Check out Actron scanners. I bought one, a little nicer one tho, for $250 that can read OBDII codes, which started in 1996 on up to present day, and can read OBD1 codes also. OBD1 computers are from 1995 on back to when they started putting computers in cars. So if you get a scanner to read both OBD1 & 2 codes, you won't be stuck. You could use it on newer vehicles then. I just love Mine...
Which model number? There are many at a reasonable price range. I saw one on ebay cp9680 made by actron for 80$- 155 but not sure if its compatible for a 95
You want the Elite 9690 model. That will read the OBD1 & OBDII trouble codes. Any others under this model will not read the OBD1 trouble codes. E-Bay is a good place to look for one as people either don't like it and get something else. Bosch is another niece scanner to research. Hear is a sight on the Actron 9690...... www.actron.com/content/elite-autoscanner-kit-enhanced-obd-i-and-obd-ii-scan-tool
Ok great! Thanks for all your help bro! Its been a good solid 6 mo ths in searching getting tail spun and mainly I DON'T KNOW!! Good to find a person who does know what to find!!! Thanks a million rowefast
You bet, I should let you know on the Actron, it takes some getting to know it, in how to get around in it. For me, and for what this thing does and the information it gives you is soooo cool. A lot of complaints on that one was how to get around and use it. But after using it for a while, then it all comes together. Just have to play with it and hit the buttons to see what they do.
LoL hey just like any new cell phone! It has so many functions bells and whistles And or like my new GF! Except if i hit the wromg button....im sleepimg on the couch lmao xD
Also with the Actron CP9690 Elite comes with a carrying case and all the different cables for the different model cars. Here is another good sight on this, even has a video... http://www.zentiz.com/actron-cp9690-trilingual-obd-iobd-ii-elite-autoscanner-pro-kit-review
Well it seems i have hit another wall. Actron company gives me a list of manufacturer 's but wont conferm that mitsubishi is one of them? But in their list is does state foreign models from 94-95 and Chrysler is the closest to dodge stealth bit is it same as Mitsubishi?
Gonna have to do some research. If you can post a picture of your ALDL connector, that would help, I could look in my kit.
Ok, looked in my kit and it did not come with a connector for your vehicle. Still post a picture if you could tho, of it. I also researched on how to retrieve trouble codes from your vehicle as it is done similar with Chevy OBD1 computers, so half way down this page on this link will tell you how to do this... http://www.evoscan.com/technical-vehicle-manuals/12-mitsubishi-diagnostics
Here is piits the same illustration as in the link you sent. Me A trapaziod with rounded corners
That looks like a OBDII connector.
Thats what i thought too! But obd ll only dates back to 1996? Why did 1995 get cut? I think that year was the best for all makes and models. I had a 95 nissan 240 and a small pick up and nokw this 3000 gt...for the standard maintance these vehicles i think are best year made from foreign company's
You know what I would do? Is to go to an auto parts store and ask them to scan your car for trouble codes. If they ask the year tell them a 1996. They have the OBDII connector for their scanners. At this point the Actron would plug into your ALDL.
I wemnt to a mitsunishi specialist and their obd only scans back to 2006 The mech said i have odb l? Auto parts store dont know anything like ebay sellers I have a personal friend thats a ase mech and he tried both, didnt work prolly his scan tool was obsolete from that year idk wild guess
Well, I don't know what to tell ya for your vehicle. Everything I look up shows a different ALDL than what is in your vehicle. The one in your vehicle is an OBDII ALDL.
I believe you over that mech at Mitsubishi. And google conferms i have obd ll aswell but its confusing since the over tne counter obd are dated back to only 1996..and obd l are 91-95 some where some one screwed up something
Look at the manufacture date of the car, it may be close to 1996 and have 1996 parts in it. You could find the engine numbers and run those to see what year the block applies to. In researching your car, & OBD computers, I did see an overlap in years depending on the sight you look at. If you post your vin number I can run it to see what it says also.
Well its worth a shot..wont nirt to try
Vehicle was made in DEC of 1994 lol. SOL there
JA3AM84J6SYO21576 the "O" can be zero not sure
It doesn't show too much...VIN: JA3AM84J6SY021576 Model: 3000GT Make (Manufacturer): Mitsubishi Model year: 1995 Manufactured in: Japan (Asia) Sequential number: 021576 Vehicle & Owner Records Full VIN Report Vehicle History Report Body style: HATCHBACK 2-DR Brake - front: Disc Brake - rear: Disc Brake system: Non-ABS Consumption in the city: 18 miles/gallon / 13.1 liters/100 km Consumption on the highway: 24 miles/gallon / 9.8 liters/100 km Curb weight: 3252 lbs / 1478.2 kg Driveline: FWD Engine type: 3.0L V6 DOHC 24V Fuel tank: 19.80 gallon / 75.0 liter Overall height: 49.00 in / 124.5 cm Overall length: 179.70 in / 456.4 cm Overall width: 72.40 in / 183.9 cm Standard seating: 4 Steering Type: R&P Tires: 225/55R16 Trim level: Base Turning Diameter: 37.40 in / 95.0 cm Wheelbase: 97.20 in / 246.9 cm
One possibility would be that who ever owned the car before you put a newer engine and transmission in there and changed out the computer to run that engine. Checking the engine number would help to find out.
Yeah all that will show is basic specs of vehicle I just looked up my old mercedes 84 lol it got junked
Hey do you know of a site that cen provide wire color codes for my car? All i seem to fimd is wiring diagrams and thats no help cause its in black and white I need to figure out what wires supply the head lights. I did a convertion from my 95 and swaped it over to the 91 look and the pop up lights are different so i need to add on a wire supply or steal one power source and use it from a push button switch and or also the main flip switch from the steering column Also too the driver side door works but passenger doesnt work the power lock from passenger side nor does the speaker works on just that side. Im guessing the wires in the din plug are not lined up from 91 to 95 i have to reconfigure the connectors to make them work. But everything else seems to be workinng fine.
Not asking much are you? LoL!
Can you come and fix it for me too prudy please? LoL no but i got the light to pop up but i had to use it on the high beam side of the switch. And its annoying to sit there and wait for the motors to sync up to open fully and close flush with hood. I am pretty good at afro engineering but when it comes to more complex stuff i dont wana fry my harness like i did to my 84 fire bird. Instant flash fire poof!!
I ordered a timer relay for the two head light since the motors dont operate at same speed one is slower or faster than the other. Plus too i wana make ome do a wink wink dounle pop up just for shits N giggles
And he doesn't want much either, LOL...
You know what funny is when i type in words like ....95 mitsubishi 3000 gt wiring diagram for headlight i would thinkit be that/simple? But Nnooooooo, its more compolex and More research so eventually i found from forums that 3 sx and links that send you to onther web sites i found the wire diagram only in B/W..and that was hours of searching lol
Finding out technical issues was simple thats how i foumd out my IAC AND PTU was bad from others on utube and forums. And now in cargurus i can inform my fellow 3K gt what my symptoms where and where to find that issue to solve them since the obd scan tool is a myth ?
I would still try going around to different places to see if there scanner can pick up any trouble codes, since the plugin, ALDL is for OBDII. You plan on keeping this car?
Yes i like this style and i did a lot of work doing the front clip change over! So even more a deffinate YES I had the 91 but was a lemon blown head gasket and tnought i could fix it but more oarts i spent the worse i realized i dont have a clue how to dial in the compouter without a obd scaner So after 1000$ in parts later i bought this one for a 1000$ and it came with a nice lil dent in the passenger side front end So once i got ambitious enough i did the swap over. But this one has same issues head gasket is !eaking coolant and burn oil too. Seems like a common issue with these cars.
So i talkee to another mech..he said that lond as the connection ports are made equal and it is a OBDl&ll trilingual it will work with Chrysler's data support on tha actron 9690. Had to pull that info out of him ? Acted like it was a secret or something? But anyways thanks for all your help bro! Your leads gave me more to research on and to find a good price! 150 and up.
Got your message. Let me know on your adventures...

BRUSSELS (Reuters) - Belgian police fired water cannons and pepper spray at masked protesters on Friday as a demonstration over job losses at ArcelorMittal's Liege steel plant turned violent.
Masked protesters threw broken paving stones at police who were barricading a street leading to the residence of Belgian Prime Minister Elio Di Rupo. Traffic in much of central Brussels was paralyzed.
Di Rupo on Thursday cancelled a trip to a summit in Latin America to meet with union leaders after ArcelorMittal, the world's biggest steelmaker, said it would shut facilities at Liege, in the east of Belgium, with the likely loss of 1,300 jobs.
The company, led by Lakshmi Mittal, one of Britain's richest men, said it had decided to close the coke mill and six finishing lines permanently after European demand for steel dropped by 8 to 9 percent last year.
About 350 workers gathered outside the prime minister's residence in central Brussels, according to police.
"We will lose our jobs next week. We want to make the politicians aware," said Jean Claude Fitipaldi, 35, an electrician at the Liege plant, as he watched the clashes.
It is a further blow for Belgium after last October's announcement that Ford Motor Co would close its car plant in Genk, some 40 km (25 miles) north of Liege, by the end of 2014.
Planned car plant closures, also including Opel in Bochum [ID:nL6N0AR5A5], have convinced ArcelorMittal that European steel demand will not return to pre-crisis levels.
"If we don't react quickly, it means the end of the steel industry in Liege," Jean-Luc Rader, a representative of the socialist FGTB union, said before going in to meet the prime minister.
Di Rupo and ministers met with union leaders during the clashes.
"There is less and less confidence in Mr Mittal, because after so many promises and then so many very huge decisions, it is quite difficult to discuss with him," Foreign Minister Didier Reynders said on his arrival.
In France, ArcelorMittal has promised there will be no forced layoffs after the French government threatened to nationalize its plant in Florange after it announced the idling of two blast furnaces.
There was no indication of a comparable compromise in Belgium.

Two Officer Vacancies in the
Wasatch County GOP
Wasatch County GOP
The election is over! Republicans won the Presidency, kept control of the House and the Senate, and won various Governor seats and State Legislature positions across the country. In Utah Republicans also won various state positions and positions in Wasatch County. We applaud the efforts of all those who ran for office and congratulate those who were elected. To all who voted in the General Election we thank you for fulfilling this very important civic duty.
For various reasons, two officers in the Wasatch County GOP have recently resigned: Steve Capson, Rep. to the State Central Committee, and Marge Carlile, Secretary. We greatly appreciate their willingness to run for office in the spring of 2015 and for their dedication and service on the Executive Committee for the past 1 ½ years. They spent countless hours attending meetings and conventions, organizing for caucus night, assisting with the Lincoln Day Breakfast, studying the issues, and meeting with candidates. We are grateful for all they have done for the Wasatch County GOP and wish them the very best in all of their endeavors.
According to our County Bylaws, the County Central Committee (comprised of all precinct chairs, precinct vice-chairs, and executive committee members) is required to meet to "appoint a successor [for both positions] by a majority vote". A Wasatch County Central Committee Meeting and Special Election will be held on Tuesday, November 29, 2016 at 7 PM at the Heber City Police Department at 301 South Main Street in Heber. We must have a quorum in order to conduct this important business, so we ask that all committee members please make arrangements to attend!
Any registered Republicans who are residents of Wasatch County are eligible to run for either of these two positions. If you know of anyone in your precincts who meets the criteria and who may be interested in either of these positions please pass on this information to them and encourage them to attend the meeting on November 29. During the meeting those who are running for these positions will give speeches. The Central Committee will then vote, and the vacancies will be filled.
The individual who is selected to fill the Secretary position will serve until the County Organizing Convention in the spring of 2017. The Secretary is an automatic County Delegate. The individual who is selected to fill the position of Rep. to the State Central Committee will be an automatic State Delegate and will serve through the State Organizing Convention on May 20, 2017. (The County Central Committee will elect a Rep. to the State Central Committee at the County Organizing Convention. Whoever is elected will take office at the conclusion of the State Organizing Convention on May 20, 2017.)
Any individuals interested in running for either of these two positions are asked to email Morgan Murdock at email@example.com by Saturday, November 26. This will enable the Executive Committee to provide interested candidates with information regarding the positions and the election procedures.
If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact me at any time by email or by phone.
Best Regards,
Morgan Murdock

Genealogy, a French passion
The French Federation of Genealogy, La Fédération Française de Généalogie, which unites more than 150 associations to encourage and help people to conduct genealogical research, had its 2011 Congress in Lille from 2-4 June.
There were presentations in multiple parallel session, a marketplace/exhibition and tours of local sites of interest. All familiar features of conferences many of us attend.
There was a theme, our ancestors and work, the topic of several but by no means all talks.
Some the more interesting sounding titled presentations were in the theme sessions: "The development of midwifery in the 18th century"; "Customs officers and defrauders"; "Trades of the father in France, trades of the son in New France"; and "Prostitution in the Middle Ages". There were also presentations on case studies, how to write a family history and explanations of what you might find in a particular archive.
While I didn't see anything startlingly different about this Congress the theme of work might be an interesting one to explore for a conference, or perhaps a one day workshop.
There's a conference website at: http://www.genealogie-lille-2011.org/ where you will find a copy of an article, in French, from which the title of this item is taken.

text: Cyser BJCP M2a Overall Impression In well-made examples of the style, the fruit is both distinctive and well-incorporated into the honeysweet- acid-tannin-alcohol balance of the mead. Some of the best strong examples have the taste and aroma of an aged Calvados (apple brandy from northern France), while subtle, dry versions can taste similar to many fine white wines. There should be an appealing blend of the fruit and honey character but not necessarily an even balance. Generally a good tannin-sweetness balance is desired, though very dry and very sweet examples do exist. Ingredients Standard description applies. Cyser is a mead made with the addition of apples or apple juice. Traditionally, cysers are made by the addition of honey to apple juice without additional water.

The Hungover Santa Race
Let me set the scene. It is 8:20 on a Saturday morning and my alarm is going off. This is already a bad start to the day. I am disorientated. What is happening? Whyyyyy?!
My First Half Marathon
XXXI Medio Maratón Rockero de Villaverde
Date: 16th November, 2014
Time: 2 hours 8 minutes
The day had finally arrived…the day where I questioned my sanity. 21 kilometres…on a sunday morning? Had I finally taken it too far, I asked myself as I shuffled onto the metro. Yes that's right, I was choosing to do a run which wasn't even walking distance from my flat. I could tell that the passengers on the train (the majority still drunk from antics of the previous night) were judging me… I couldn't blame them.
My running buddy, Lauren Haynes, dragged herself out of bed to be my personal cheerleader – the true hero of the day! As we travelled further and further from the centre of Madrid, I began to doubt the likelihood that I would be able to finish the race.
Once we arrived, I realised I would be running the vast majority of the race through parkland terrain, which I later realised would be a godsend! I found my number and pinned it proudly to my t shirt. I was lucky that the weather seemed pretty mild and the sun was breaking through the clouds – I probably would have felt very differently had it been raining. Though, in true British style, I would have grit my teeth and carried on! (She says in hindsight..)
At exactly 09:30, (or more like 09:37 – it was a Sunday morning, I'll let them off) we started the race. I immediately knew I was going to struggle as within the first kilometre I already had the telling signs of the shin splints (perhaps not the correct term, but it accurately describes the pain shooting down my right shin) which I seem to be prone to when I haven't stretched enough (let that be a lesson to you!) So as I was half-running half-lumbering along the dirt-beaten track, wondering whether I stop to do some stretches without looking like a prat, I also had a sinking feeling in my stomach… …I needed the toilet.
I was 10 minutes into the race, a mere 3 kilometres down (18 more to go!) and I needed the bloody toilet. Panic sets in…I'm not going to be able to do it.
Thank god I am as stubborn, (and perhaps stupid) as this is the only way I was able to continue the race. By the 6th kilometre, I couldn't take it anymore and I found a perfectly positioned bush to squat behind, ever-so-classy, thank you very much.
So I find myself, no longer in need and also with the pain subsiding from my shin, I felt like a whole new woman! (Okay, slight exaggeration) but I finally started to believe that I could finish the race. Thanks to the wonderful photographers on site that day who documented the progress of the runners, I can watch my rapidly dishevelling self reach and pass by each kilometre. As my smile slowly changed to a grimace (check out the images in my gallery!), the end was beginning to look like an achievable reality, rather than a distant dream. As I finally passed Lauren, I knew I had got to the final hurdle. I saw the clock said 2 hours and 7 minutes, and I grit my teeth and made it over the finishing line! I guzzled down my free drink and sat down, waiting for Lauren to come and find me (I was not able to move) feeling proud and grinning like an idiot – I had done it!

Tim Cranford from LifePointe Church in Fort Worth, Texas brings us this fun use of corrugated metal.
They first created a frame by painting four 10ft 1×4 boards flat black and screwing them across four 8ft pieces of 1/2″ thin wall electrical conduit using 1/4″ bolts. Then they suspended the frame from the beams above the drop ceiling with steel braided cable and cable clamps.
After the entire piece was suspended the corrugated metal was cut into roughly square pieces with simple tin snips and attached to the frame with self tapping sheet metal screws. The church leaf logo was traced and cut out with the tin snips in the middle piece before it was installed.
They lit each piece with simple color wash LED par cans – the top half suspended and the bottom half sitting on the stage. The entire project took only a couple hours to construct and install and cost around $75. All the materials were purchased at a local hardware store and Home Depot.

In the coming months, here at Haunted Scotland, we will be probing the Haunted History of Scotland. We will follow in the footsteps of the Jacobites, seek out locations associated with King Robert The Bruce, scramble across the country in search of Mary Queen of Scots and finally, lookout for the outlaw and national hero, William Wallace and his locations of interest.
We want to see if the conscious energies of these long gone physical figures still frequent their past locations of interest.
Come join us in the search, as we start with the Jacobite Risings, here at Haunted Scotland….

Sought-after: Jamal Idris will play for the Panthers in 2014. Photo: Steve ChristoFor the first few months of his tenure at Penrith, general manager Phil Gould was ridiculed about his fabled "five-year plan".
Shortly after his appointment in May 2011, he hurried then-coach Matt Elliott out the door, quickly followed by captain Petero Civoniceva. Then he moved on Michael Jennings to the Roosters and allowed Luke Lewis to join the Sharks.
The so-called five-year plan became so much of a punchline for how poorly the Panthers were supposedly being governed, it picked up its own hashtag on Twitter. Gould's legion of detractors jumped all over it.
Then Gould missed out on signing Johnathan Thurston, and nobody will ever know just how close he was to securing an off-contract Todd Carney.
Some thought these to be a failure. Aware of the stench around their club not that long ago, Gould and others realised it was an achievement just to get Origin playmakers to the negotiation table.
So what about now? How does the club look today after two-and-a-half years into the five-year plan, which includes the shock signing of gun centre Jamal Idris after he was released from the Titans on Tuesday?
"He's a massive signing for this area and this club and another sign of what a lot of people here have achieved," Gould told Fairfax Media. "Has it happened quicker than I expected? It has to be honest. I sat back the other day and reflected on what we've done in the past two-and-a-half years, and it has happened very quickly. But the results in the next two or so years, and beyond that, will show what Penrith is all about. I'm extremely happy with how the club has evolved. Our aim from day one has been to make Panthers the strongest sporting franchise in the country. This is part of that evolution."
Idris, 23, was granted a compassionate release from the final three years of his Titans deal to take up a three-year deal with the Panthers. "I made comment for Channel Nine last year prior to his serious leg injury about how well he was playing," Gould said. "He's a representative-class player. Whether he plays for NSW or Australia again comes down to Jamal himself and the commitment he makes. Last year, I saw how good Jamal Idris could be, never believing he would be playing for the Panthers."
Notwithstanding the untold good that's happened on the other side of Mulgoa Road at the once-financially crippled leagues club, the revolution at the football club under its 1991 premiership-winning coach should not be underestimated. They nearly made the top eight in 2013 after many consigned them to the wooden spoon.
Do they have a premiership-winning roster? Not yet, but they're getting there.
Peter Wallace and Jamie Soward are confidence players who could do the job Penrith need. Then there's Tyrone Peachey. They're still kicking themselves at Cronulla for letting him go. Then there's Kevin Naiqama, whose form for the Knights late last season illuminated his abundant natural ability. Then there's Elijah Taylor, a signing from the Warriors, ripe for the biggest season of his career. Gould's been telling anyone who listens about him for years. Then there's Brent Kite, who played through heinous injury for Manly during their run to the grand final and would still be there if not for the salary cap. What excites the most at Penrith is what's beneath these players, deeper still.
Premiership contenders might be too strong, but Penrith are much closer to the top of the mountain than some of the bigger, stronger clubs. For instance, Parramatta.
Why has Idris left? When he signed with the Titans for $$1.8 million over five years in 2011, the Gold Coast were a different team. They had promised to make him a larger-than-life character away from footy, but financial problems stalled that. Gould also heard rumblings about Idris' desire to come back to Sydney to be closer to his family.
The Idris signing is a horse trade with a swap with Brad Tighe a fundamental part of the deal.
"As tough a decision as it was for the Titans to release Jamal on compassionate grounds, I can tell you it was equally as tough to say goodbye to Brad Tighe," Gould said. "He's been one of my favourites since I got here. Not just a quality player but person. His work with the indigenous programs, and the mentoring of our young indigenous players, has been a wonderful contribution."New Pennies Penrith's key 2014 recruits
Brent Kite – Prop
The veteran comes to Penrith with a point to prove after being squeezed out of the Sea Eagles. Will add some much needed experience to a young forward pack and provide a strong rotation with props Tim Grant and Sam McKendry, as he closes in on 300 NRL games.
Jamal Idris – Centre/utility
Prized signing who returns to Sydney after a two-season stint on the Gold Coast. Will give the Panthers some much needed strike out wide as he looks to find the destructive ball-running form which earned him one-off Test and NSW appearances while at Canterbury in 2010 and 2011.
Jamie Soward – Five-eighth
The much maligned pivot has a point to prove after a messy end to his seven season-stint at St George Illawarra. Will be looking to return to the form which saw him play three Origins for NSW in 2011 and become a key member of the Dragons 2010 premiership win.
Peter Wallace – Halfback
The former NSW Origin playmaker returns to Penrith after six seasons at Brisbane and a starring role for Scotland in the Bravehearts' world cup campaign. A good combination with Soward will form an integral part of any potential success for Penrith.
Kevin Naiqama – Wing/fullback
The former Knight is reunited with his brother Wes at Penrith. Debuted for Newcastle in 2010 but was limited to only 15 NRL games because of the presence of Darius Boyd, Akuila Uate and James McManus. Will be hoping to finally cement a regular spot at the Panthers.
Tyrone Peachey – Back-rower
Dynamic forward who made his mark in seven games for Cronulla last year. Stuck behind a log-jam of back-rowers at the Sharks, makes the switch to Penrith with the intention of establishing himself as a first-grader. Has fancy footwork and good ball skills.
Elijah Taylor – Back-rower
Reunites with Ivan Cleary at the Panthers having spent time under the Penrith coach at the Warriors, where he starred in the Kiwis' run to the grand final in 2011. Spent some time at hooker last year but is more comfortable in the back row.

As a Marysville resident for nearly 25 years and your mayor since 2011, one of the things I love most is our community spirit. People in Marysville take care of their neighbors. We also know how to have fun and celebrate community. That's true year-round but never more evident than during the Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday season.
This week you'll start seeing barrels and donation sites at city offices and many local businesses collecting food, coats and toys for less-fortunate families connected with the Marysville Community Food Bank. Last year the food bank served more than 16,000 families and provided 1,310 holiday baskets. About 98 percent of them said receiving food bank groceries allows them to use limited resources for other basic needs, most often utilities and housing. All City Food Drive Pick up a little something extra to donate Saturday, Nov. 4, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Marysville-area grocery stores. Your donations stay here to help local families in need. For a list of items that are always needed and special holiday requests, visit marysvillefoodbank.org. Gift cards or financial donations help buy perishable items like turkey and ham. Mail donations to Marysville Community Food Bank, P.O. Box 917, Marysville, WA 98270. Coats, Hats and Gloves Drive Starting Black Friday and running through the Thanks-giving holiday weekend, Marysville police and community partners will collect donations of new coats, hats and gloves. This year they're trying to fill the Bearcat armored rescue vehicle.
Friday, Nov. 24, 4:30-7:30 p.m. at Walmart, 8713 64th St. N.E.
Saturday, Nov. 25, 11 a.m.-2 p.m., Fred Meyer, 9925 State Ave. Sunday, Nov. 26, 11 a.m.-2 p.m., Walmart, 8713 64th St. N.E.
You can also drop off donations at the Marysville Police Department, 1635 Grove St., between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. Toy Store Donations Unwrapped new toys, books and stocking stuffers for children ages birth through 17 are being collected at city offices and all Marysville fire stations through Dec. 8. Nearly 1,200 local children received gifts last year. Older children especially appreciate gift cards. Giving your time can also be a rewarding way to help. Volunteers ages 16 and older are needed for the toy store Dec. 11-14. If you have questions, contact Tara Mizell at 360-363-8404 or email@example.com. Merrysville for the Holidays
Mark your calendar for Saturday, Dec. 2, for our city's biggest holiday event. It starts at Comeford Park at 5 p.m. with free family activities, photo booths and a craft show. Live music starts at 5:30 p.m., and the Electric Lights Parade down State Ave. starts at 6:30 p.m. with special guests Santa and Mrs. Claus. Next comes the water tower lighting that will continue to offer a welcoming Marysville beacon through year's end. Believe: A Magical Holiday Experience
New this year, children and families are invited to watch "The Polar Express," a story about Christmas, friendship and bravery. Held Sunday, Dec. 10, at the historic Opera House, the afternoon includes movie-themed crafts, photo opportunities, popcorn and hot chocolate.

Dates are Dec. 8-9, 13-16 and 20-23 from 5:30 to 9:30 p.m. It's a free event with donations accepted ($5 adults, $3 youth or $20 per family suggested). As we approach Thanksgiving, I am thankful to live, work and play in Marysville. Best wishes for a blessed Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year with family and friends. Jon Nehring is the mayor of Marysville. His column runs monthly.

Appreciating What You've Done
With all the fun and craziness going on this summer, I have had a lot less time to break down my life and all the things I want/need/hope for. I love training, I love working out, I love cooking and eating and I am getting to do all of these things more than ever. But, I also love reading, analyzing, and learning, and the time to do all of that has been cut back a ton. What generally happens when I am searching around for info on life and health and all that fun stuff, is I end up translating what I've learned into my own life. I always try to utilize the information I gather to make myself a better coach, athlete, friend, and you know, person. So, some of you regulars might remember I posted up a Bucket List that I fully intend to pursue over the years. But there was something somebody told me when we were talking bucket lists that really hit home. The question was raised: have you ever taken the time to appreciate all the things you have done?
This stopped me in my tracks. I have always thought that I have a pretty good perspective on all the great things I've done in my life, but when I started thinking back, I realized all of a sudden that there are SO many things I have simply forgotten about. Arguably ALL of these things have had some form of positive impact on how I turned out today. So, today's post is me starting the ball rolling. But before I do, I want to make sure a couple things are clear. Generally, this sort of thing is seen as bragging, or "stroking ones own ego". And you know what? Yep, it is. But unless you go around telling everyone all the cool things you've done on a regular basis (which will pretty quickly make you a pretty unpopular person) taking the time to not only acknowledge what you've done, but to share it with others will generally give you a tremendous kick of motivation to continue doing great things! The next thing is to be honest. Appreciating the things you've done in your life is all about you finding self-respect in yourself and your life. It's not meant to impress others. Hell, if something you're crazy proud of seems insignificant to others, that doesn't mean don't share it. It was something that meant a lot to YOU, and that is the point of this exercise. The second you start to allow other peoples' opinions dictate everything you say and share, you lose your voice, you lose what it means to be YOU.
Also, it doesn't have to be a short or long list. Just a list that males you look at it and be able to smile and feel proud. I'm sure I could write a 3-thing list one day and not have a clue what else to add, and then the next day be able to write a 200-thing list. It doesn't matter. All that matters is that you are honestly appreciating what you've done in life.
Here goes:
I made a commitment to myself when I was in early High School: I wanted to play baseball professionally, and I wanted to inspire people (didn't know how I wanted to inspire, I just knew I wanted to). Now, I played 3 years of pro ball (one in Europe and two in US of A) and I am so lucky to inspire a good deal of people every day. I do think every single day how incredible it is that I get to do exactly what I've always wanted to. It's damn cool.
I ran 12 marathons. I broke 4 hours.
I ran an ultra-marathon. A 50-mile race through the woods!
I've written two full screenplays.
I made a short film that won almost every single award at the Siena College Film Festival. I wrote, directed, starred, and helped edit it, and it took only 3 days to do in total.
I fell head-over-heels in love.
I started my own business, and it has grown each and every year. Even through a move to a location where I knew nobody, it still grew.
I played drums and sang in a relatively successful band.
I have written over 100 songs and 50 poems from the age of 7 or 8 until now.
I taught myself how to play the piano and the guitar.
I had a podium finish in my first ever triathlon. And also in my first ever jiu-jitsu competition.
I actually toured with a pretty successful Eurythmy troupe in High School (if you don't know what that is, you clearly didn't go to a Waldorf School).
I spent three months in Germany as a foreign exchange student.
I went to a modeling audition once. It was hysterical.
I went to a movie audition once. I'm pretty sure I embarrassed myself more than any other moment in my life. But I walked out extremely proud (I was contacted to play a dilapidated insomniac. Really? Me? Wasting away? I was set up to fail!). It was awesome.
I've hosted three successful CrossFit competitions and a marathon.
I rode my bike 1800 miles in 13 days before crashing just past half-way while trying to ride across the country, and raised $8,000 for Children's Miracle Network.
I've won, and had top-3 finishes in all but 2 of the CrossFit competitions I've been to as an individual (top 6 in all but 1!).
I had a mohawk for a few months, and really like it (even went to a wedding with it!).
I've actually talked my way out of over 10 fights. In almost all the cases I've become friendly with the person trying to start the fight (talking like fist fight type of fight here).
I've found the things that make me truly happy in life (being in the wilderness, working out, challenging myself physically and mentally on a daily basis, and passionately pursuing my life-goal (refer to the first thing for my life-goal).
Want to know what's happening with me right now? I am remembering more and more things I've done. I am also feeling very proud and good about myself. I do NOT want this to become something where people say "oh, good job Josh, you're so cool." Or, "Jesus Josh, get off your high horse." I am merely doing this to give the example of what I mean when taking the time to appreciate your self-worth in the world. While I am sure that there are plenty of ways to do it, this is a way I really think would do a lot of good for people. And if you think it's stupid to share your thoughts, emotions, feelings, successes, and failures with other people, I will leave you with a great quote from John Krakauer's "Into The Wild:"
Happiness is only real when shared.
Share your life with others so that your life has meaning in the world. So that you can be supported and loved by others. So you can converse, debate, argue, and grow. So that the things you do can have meaning to more than just the closed-off closets of your own mind. Share so you can inspire others to be better and to learn.
Never Stop, GET FIT.

The 3rd edition of the Guide to Arbitration booklet describing PIcARBS arbitration is now available at: http://www.PIcARBS.co.uk.
Month: August 2015
PIcARBS and Costs ADR are working together
PIcARBS and Costs ADR (CADR) are working together to produce a seamless system to resolve clinical negligence and personal injury cases from start to end without using the civil courts.
PIcARBS is already running and open for business. Arbitration is not mediation. It is civil litigation without using the courts and it is binding. The claim is arbitrated on liability and quantum through the PIcARBS efiling system using experienced PI and clinical negligence silks as arbitrators.
CADR is already running and also open for business. Then when the case settles or an award is made by the arbitrator the costs are arbitrated through CADR arbitrators. See costs-adr.com. The joint project is to set up within CADR a panel of PI and clinical negligence arbitrators to resolve costs in such cases in 6 month from the costs award or agreement.
This should save the NHSLA and the MIB and insurers large sums in costs and should produce quicker payment of damages and costs to claimants and their lawyers. ARQC

Sure, we like the classic Milan cocktail, the Negroni, just fine. But sometimes the combo of gin, vermouth, and Campari can be a little too much. So when it's warmer out, we turn to the Americano, basically a Negroni made with sparkling water in place of the gin. It's crazily refreshing so it's really perfect in the midsummer heat.
Pour the Campari and vermouth into a rocks glass filled with ice. Top with soda, stir and garnish wiht the orange slice

Topical Treatments for Hidradenitis Suppurativa
Topical treatments are uniquely advantageous in that they can be applied directly to the skin, thus reducing systemic side effects. Topical antibiotics and keratolytics, or agents which promote the breakdown of the cell to cell bonds, have been used in localized disease or as an adjunctive treatment in more severe HS.
Topical clindamycin (antibiotic), and resorcinol, a topical keratolytic, are two agents which are supported by clinical studies, but patients report efficacy of benzoyl peroxide as well.1

A human being is not one thing among others; things determine each other, but man is ultimately self-determining. What he becomes - within the limits of endowment and environment- he has made out of himself. In the concentration camps, for example, in this living laboratory and on this testing ground, we watched and witnessed some of our comrades behave like swine while others behaved like saints. Man has both potentialities within himself; which one is actualized depends on decisions but not on conditions.

Depending on how you approach it, KAI USA's Zero Tolerance 0350 is either a modest-size tactical knife or an utter beast of an EDC folder. It's not big enough for many to call it a 'fighting knife,' but it's somewhere near the upper limit of what most guys are willing to haul around in their back pocket all day.
Either way, this knife is a serious piece of steel. It's so badass (how badass is it?) that if it got caught in a Denny's robbery, Tim Roth would have to give it its wallet back.
The Zero Tolerance 0350 is an assisted-opening folding knife with a liner lock and a 3.25″ blade. The Speedsafe opening mechanism can be actuated by the flipper or the blade stops, which can also be used as thumb studs. The 0350 is a slightly smaller and lighter interpretation of Zero Tolerance's flagship 0300 'Beast,' and it's marketed as an EDC, tactical and survival knife.
Whether the 0350 is too big for your pocket, "just right" or too small for your MOLLE rig will be a matter of personal taste. Even if you don't like it as much as I do, it is by any measure a top-quality production knife.
The 0350 is a heavily overbuilt for a folding knife, and each of its components are just a little bit thicker and sturdier than you expect. The S30V recurve drop-point blade is three and a quarter inches long instead of the standard three inches, and a sturdy .125″ thick. It's offered in plain and combo edge versions with various tungsten DLC coatings.
The grip is a solid half-inch thick, not including the pocket clip, and is about as broad as any pocketknife can be. The stainless steel liners and liner lock are probably the thickest you've ever seen. The pivot is adjustable for tightness, and carry is provided by a 4-way pocket clip. The pommel and thumb rise are jimped so aggressively that you could almost call them serrated.
Fit And Finish
Although this knife is marked as a factory second, I've been unable to find any defects other than a minuscule scratch in the DLC blade coating which I may have caused myself. The fasteners were all tight and undamaged, the liners and scales are properly fit, the blade is properly centered and extremely stable, and it's free of machining marks. Even as a factory second, it's one of the best put-together folding knives I've used. I hope these photos can do justice to how finely this knife is finished.
Carry Ergonomics:
The 0350 has a thick (1/2 inch) grip that's more than an inch wide for most of its length. This size allows it to be nicely shaped for retention and comfort during hard cutting tasks.
On the down side, it also weighs in at a hefty 5.6 ounces. This makes it a bit of a chunky monkey for EDC use, but I've carried it nonstop for the better part of a month and I'm not planning to stop any time soon. I've worn it in everything from cargo pants to Levi's to wool dress slacks, and I can say it definitely works better with sturdy pants than with flimsy ones.
This shows the comparative sizes of the 0350 and some of my other favorite EDC knives. If the Carajas is Audrey Hepburn, the 0350 is definitely Jane Mansfield. But in a good way.
This pic shows how the 0350 looks in your pocket, compared to the other EDC knives. It sticks up a little too far, but its muted colors actually make it less conspicuous than our other choices here. Aside from this, the pocket clip does its job and retains the knife without trashing your pocket. I wish somebody could combine the quick clipping and presentation of a polished stainless clip (Benchmade!) with the visually discreet carry of a black spring steel clip like this one. And configured it for deep carry.
Cutting Ergonomics:
The 0350 may be a little saftig in your pocket, but it's really comfortable in your hands. It features a prominent choil and finger guard, and it's shaped to be secure and comfortable in a forward or reverse grip. You can absolutely crush the grip in your hands with no discomfort; this comes in really handy when you find yourself cutting cardboard for ten minutes straight.
The G10 scales are modestly textured, exactly like the Kershaw Skyline, and the frame and scales are really aggressively jimped at the thumb rise and the pommel. The pommel jimping purports to provide a more safe reverse grip, although its importance on an EDC knife is probably marginal. It could deliver an absolutely devastating hammer blow to an opponent, if you ever had to use it for self-defense.
One of my only ergonomic complaints is the the thumb jimping, which is a bit too pronounced for my comfort. The jimping cuts are fairly sharp-edged, and while they do provide an extremely firm grip they also start to hurt your thumb after a while. These cuts also abrade your index finger when you flip the knife open, especially if you do it fifty times in a row while playing with your fancy new knife like I did.
When opening the 0350, it's also worth noting that the flipper (slightly over-jimped as it is) is still the most comfortable opening method. The right-hand thumbstud will open the knife reliably, but it takes a lot of pressure to open this way and it's a bit too sharp for repeated comfort. The left-handed thumbstud sits very close to the scale on that side, and doesn't really give your thumb enough access to reliably open the blade.
The 0350 came from the factory with a hair-popping edge that sliced, diced and julienned newsprint. After about ninety seconds of honing and stropping, it was doing the same to Shotgun News crepe paper. Grade: A+.
3/4″ Manila Rope:
Despite its rather short blade, I expected decent results from the 0350 because of its sturdy grip and partly-serrated edge. It delivered, pulling through a loop of manila rope in a single vigorous draw. Trying to cut the rope with the short plain edge section was predictably more difficult: it took five or six strokes to part it. Grade: B+.
Box Cardboard:
Using only the non-serrated portion of the blade, the 0350 went absolutely medieval on the box cardboard. It cut the first fifty feet like a 30,000-psi water cutter, and for the fifty more feet the cutting was merely 'really easy.'
After the 100-foot mark the blade seemed to lose its extra-sharp edge, but it kept cutting cleanly (while requiring more and more cutting effort) until it finally started to catch the cardboard at 170 feet. My hands were cramping pretty badly from the effort of cutting with only the non-serrated tip, and it's possible that I lost my edge before the 0350 did. I am not going to repeat this test to find out, however.
But seriously, 170 feet? Shut up! ZT obviously knows how to use S30v to its full and amazing potential. Of the knives I've tested, only the Chris Reeve Sebenza can hold its edge like this, or possibly the Robson X-46 during whose testing I ran out of boxes and gave up. Grade: A++.
The ZT 0350 had no blade play or looseness when I bought it, and it has none now. Considering the strength of the S30V blade and the absurd thickness of the twin steel liners, I have absolutely no concerns about this knife's ruggedness or durability.
Even the tigerstripe Tungsten DLC blade coating is bombproof. I thought I'd abraded some of it off of the blade by slicing through more than fifty yards of cardboard, but I was wrong. What I thought was a scratch was only a smudge of glue from the packing tape, and it rubbed off. This tungsten DLC is so tough it eats Duracoat for lunch, and it's got chunks of generic 'powder coat' in its stool.
I'd bet my life on the ZT 0350.
Ease Of Sharpening
Although I can't say "The ZT 0350 is categorically better than the Sebenza," this Oregonian definitely beats that South African hands-down at the sharpening bench. Its S30V still takes effort to re-sharpen, but it 'only' took me half an hour to restore the 0350 to its original sharpness. I reground the 30 degree back bevel and 40 degree microbevel, and it was slicing Shotgun News again snicker-snack. It wasn't exactly easy, but at least I could do it. Grade: B-.
- The blade and cutting performance are amazing. Zero Tolerance knows how to use S30V.
- Extremely comfortable in action.
- Overall strength, fit and finish.
- Sharp jimping on the thumb rise.
- Indiscreet tip-up carry.
- A bit too heavy for its blade length.
It's too big to carry with formal wear, but the ZT 0350 has become my favorite heavy-duty EDC knife. It's slightly larger and slightly heavier than the also-excellent Benchmade 300 Axis, and its spring assist is either a bonus or a 'meh' depending on your tastes.
Either way, it's a super-comfortable cutting knife (except for that jimping) and its S30V blade keeps on going like an Energizer Bunny.

CROATIAN CENTER OF RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES – Why should you go solar
Electricity is the most efficient power source available to us every day and getting electricity from the Sun is only natural.
A simple 3 kW solar system will avoid the release of 3 tons of carbon per year, this is equal to planting an entire acre of trees. No greenhouse gases or pollution. No burning coal or oil or natural gas or propane.
If you have a south facing roof or land that is free from shade from 9 to 3 then you have a desirable solar location. The more direct sun the better, however about 4 hours of direct sun is adequate year round.
Buying a solar system now with heavy incentives will give you electricity for more than 25 years, most panels last longer. Solar panels power all the satellites in outer space and they have been working for more than 50 years. All that free electricity can be yours.More info at https://solarserdar.wordpress.com
During the daylight hours, energy created is used in your home and excess energy is sold back to the power company through current electrical wiring. Net Metering allows you to sell the unused power to the utility company. Older dial meters will actually spin backwards.
Solar is easy to install without any heavy machinery and solar energy requires no moving parts and no maintenance.
Estimate your solar potential by drawing a system on your roof!
Wind speeds
Optimum solar orientation information
A calculator for telling you the position of the sun
Snow loads
Most solar panels are warranted for 25 years and so your investment is safe and will deliver power for years to come that is pollution free. If one panel should fail it can easily be replaced.
The federal and state incentives are the highest they have been in years. Some states cover up to 80 % of the cost of your solar system.
The solar system can increase the value of your home as well. What would you buy, a home that makes its own electricity or one that has a huge electrical bill every month? And solar systems have no sales tax, and do not add to your homes property tax. More info at http://solarserdar.blogspot.com
The US has great solar energy potential, looking at the map below shows just how much more sun the US gets compared to Germany which is the largest solar market in the world. Imagine the power we could generate if we all had solar.
Solar panels are strong, passing hail tests, and are regularly installed in Arctic and Antarctic conditions.
You can add backup power to your home for days when power outages happen by adding a bank of batteries which will be charged by your solar system.
Solar panels will reduce wear and tear on your current roof, keeping it shaded and preventing natural wear down. Your home will be cooler in the summer due to the natural shading of the solar panels. Most panels are installed on a rack with room for air to circulate underneath them. Thin film panels can stick to your roof but generally produce less energy per square feet than regular solar panels. There are other options as well, such as clay tiled panels, panels which are designed like roof tiles and we can advise you as to the cost of all of your options and various styles.
To estimate your solar cost, multiply your average daily electrical demand in kilowatt-hours by 0.25. The result is the approximate size of solar array, in kilowatts, needed to meet your electrical demand. Solar systems cost about $7 per kilowatt installed. There are also permits that need to be obtained and any associations which try to restrict solar power and we can handle both types of situations. A 10 x 10 area fits 6 panels and makes 1200 watts of power with a installed cost of $8000.

When Mike Pence journeyed to the Capitol this week, House Speaker Paul D. Ryan flubbed his introduction — presenting him to lawmakers as "Vice President-elect Trump."
Ryan could be forgiven for confusing the two men and their roles. The first week of the 115th Congress has been a tale of two administrations, full of jarring reminders that there will be two distinct managers working at the White House — and probable tensions between their contrasting styles.
Ensconced in his gilded Manhattan tower earlier in the week, Trump sent House Republicans reeling with a duo of tweets — just four minutes apart — that criticized his party's controversial decision to decimate an independent congressional ethics office. Lawmakers, already under siege from their constituents, quickly reversed themselves.
But a day later, Pence headed to Washington with a decidedly humbler mission. Nestled in a windowless basement room in the Capitol Building, he spent more than an hour listening to the parochial concerns of House lawmakers, nodding along as rank-and-file members talked about Western land use and the minutiae of health policy.
The dueling interactions of Trump and Pence with Congress offered an early preview of how the incoming White House may attempt to alternately strong-arm, cajole and tweet Congress into submission.
Perhaps most vulnerable to the dynamic are the relationships between Trump and Ryan (R-Wis.) and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.). Already enacting a robust domestic agenda, the two leaders are busy corralling their own members, and allies say they are not eager to devote extensive time to managing the caprices of Trump.
[The chaos theory of Donald Trump: Sowing confusion through tweets]
Enter Pence, who made clear in his visit to the House and in remarks to the midweek Senate Republican luncheon that he will seek to be an accessible and stable force at the Capitol. Pence's "genteel" dealings with Congress, as one Republican described it, are also expected to run deep on policy, and a top Pence aide was installed this week as Trump's legislative director.
"There are many ways to disrupt. One is the power of the tweet. Trump's got that down," Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-La.) said. "The other is by the power of policy. Pence has that down."
Trump advisers describe the relationship between Trump, Pence and Capitol Hill as symbiotic, if unconventional.
"Yes, they are different people and they have different approaches, but the vice president-elect understands that it is the president-elect's agenda," said Sean Spicer, the incoming White House press secretary.
"It's not like he wanted a clone," Spicer said.
In many ways, Trump and Pence are relocating their campaign trail act to the nation's capital — a WWE tag team, a good cop-bad cop routine and, in the words of several Republicans, a marriage of opposites.
"You see this in a lot of marriages; you each bring strengths to a relationship, different qualities," said Sen. Deb Fischer (R-Neb.), comparing Trump and Pence to her and her husband, who have been married nearly 45 years. "You balance each other out. I think the two of them have that figured out, and it seems to be working out."
And Rep. Chris Collins (R-N.Y.), a member of Trump's transition team, said, "It's a great marriage of two individuals since Pence's role is clearly the legislative, administrative guy to get things done so we can put bills on Trump's desk."
Yet the union could also yield two rival, or at least incongruous, power centers, with Pence operating in some ways as a shadow president.
The vice president-elect, after all, presents as a more conventionally conservative Republican, who understands and respects the arcane levers of governing — the sort of leader with whom congressional Republicans feel ideologically and temperamentally comfortable.
[Pence plays role of Trump's ambassador to nervous Republicans]
Trump, meanwhile, offers a rifle-shot approach — erratic, scattered, unpredictable. Unlike Pence, who can delve deep into policy details, Trump has largely concerned himself with two broad areas: foreign policy and job creation.
"We know there are going to be times where we have more access to Pence than Trump," said Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), a former businessman who said Trump reminds him of executives who delegate responsibilities.
So far, most Republicans have argued, the Trump administration's opening salvos have been effective. Trump's tweets were part of the push on House Republicans to stand down on their ethics overhaul. And Pence helped reassure skittish Republicans who had been nervous about Trump — leading a "private pep rally," as Rep. Walter B. Jones (R-N.C.) recounted the meeting — and providing a basic blueprint for Trump's plan to repeal President Obama's Affordable Care Act.
Many Republican lawmakers are optimistic that Trump could shake up Washington's often stagnant bureaucracy. "It doesn't have to be like it's always been," Sen. Roy Blunt (R-Mo.) said.
Some Democrats are also cautiously hopeful, thinking that they have found a willing negotiating partner in Trump, who is not particularly ideological. Still, Democrats are unsure how the power dynamic will unfold, given that Trump and Pence's views may sometimes contrast on big issues.
"Pence, in many ways, we know," said House Minority Whip Steny H. Hoyer (D-Md.). "We served with Pence. We know him. He's predictable. He and I have a lot of disagreements, ideologically, but we know each other personally and get along personally. So, to that extent, one could say it's easier to work with Pence.
"But Trump tends to be pretty transactional. He's not the kind of person who comes down on a certain ideological side of most issues. It's all about how he feels today, and maybe he won't feel the same way tomorrow. Because he's not ideologically driven, it may be easier to deal with Trump."
[Republicans are about to feel Obama's pain on Obamacare — and he knows it]
Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.), who has clashed with Trump, declined to say how Trump's tweets could potentially damage fragile agreements and sensitive relationships.
"Pence is diplomatic, careful," Flake said, before struggling to describe Trump. "Trump is about the overall message. I hope for the best and am moving ahead."
Among the many uncertainties is whom to trust.
"Let's face it: People will step out thinking they know what Trump's thinking, and they don't, and they make a statement that is contradicted with a tweet the next day, and it's, 'Oops, I guess I didn't read the tea leaves correctly,' " Collins said. "But Donald Trump is doing what's best for the country, and he's not going to lose any sleep over it."
Another question is whether Trump will continue to alternately berate and appeal to his rivals. On Thursday, Trump called Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.) a "head clown" in a tweet, only to moments later urge Democrats and Republicans to "get together and come up with a healthcare plan that really works."
Congressional leaders, such as House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.), reject the notion that they can primarily work with just one camp or the other. If everything — sweeping policy changes, messaging, party unity — is going to coalesce, they say they'll need to draw from both Republicans' styles.
"The word I'm using around here, talking to members, is 'synergy,' " McCarthy said. "That's how we're going to work with them and how they'll work together."
He noted that House Republican leaders have provided office space for Pence on the House side to encourage a close relationship with the chamber — an unusual offering for a vice president, who is formally part of the Senate and keeps an office there.
Asked if Trump, too, would have an office on the House side, McCarthy paused and then just chuckled.
