The 6-7-17 open Senate hearing was intended to quiz the Director of National Intelligence (and a few associates) specifically about FISA legislation. Presumably, this is to lay the groundwork for how the intelligence agencies found out and validated the intel to be presented as the work goes forward on the Russia/Trump matter. These four roles and their protocols are meant to cover the territory without interfering with each other. The main considerations are whether someone is an American citizen, whether events happened in the USA, whether a warrant was issued to justify invasion of privacy, whether people were identifiable, and whether something was criminal or merely ill-advised.
The Senators insisted on asking for the final results. No luck. We're not there yet.
Daniel R. Coats is the Director of National Intelligence.
Andrew McCabe is the Acting Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
Admiral Michael S. Rogers is Director of the National Security Agency.
Rod J. Rosenstein is Deputy Attorney General of the Department of Justice.
I'm leaving the links. I also edited. This is a labyrinth. Use your search engine.
The Director of National Intelligence (DNI) is the United States government cabinet-level official – subject to the authority, direction, and control of the President – required by the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004 to:
• Serve as head of the sixteen-member United States Intelligence Community,
• Direct and oversee the National Intelligence Program; and
• Serve as an advisor, upon invitation, to the President and his executive offices of the National Security Council, and the Homeland Security Council about intelligence matters related to national security;
The DNI was given overall responsibility for Intelligence Community whistleblowing and source protection. "Under ordinary circumstances, it is desirable" that either the Director or the Principal Deputy Director of National Intelligence be an active-duty commissioned officer in the armed forces or have training or experience in military intelligence activities and requirements. Only one of the two positions can be held by a military officer at any given time.
The United States Intelligence Community (IC) is a federation of 16 separate United States government agencies that work separately and together to conduct intelligence activities
Defense Intelligence Agency
National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency
National Reconnaissance Office
National Security Agency
Military Intelligence Corps
Office of Naval Intelligence
Twenty-Fifth Air Force
Marine Corps Intelligence
Coast Guard Intelligence

This is the formal stuff, the definitions and jurisdictions that can interfere with felt justice by invoking the law. The tension between the sense of what is right and fair as opposed to what the laws require is often troublesome and can mean the guilty go free — or the opposite.
Since all four of the FISA-related men were tight-lipped and cautious, one might wonder what the point of this panel was. The real answers were given in closed testimony later. Regardless of the purpose, it was a fascinating view of a world within the world, the one that governs us but constantly exempts itself, and knows very little about the rest of us anyway. Each did a little grandstanding dance, interrupting, demanding answers, praising, summoning past connections, sneering and scoffing, showing that they — not unlike Trump — can't distinguish between politics and governing.
Kamala Harris is an outsider determined to demand "power" and talks about giving people authority in writing. WRITTEN!! She interrupts and, though others have previously been even worse about that, she's the one who gets shut down. The camera gives her no face-time.
McCain is dozing, clearly aged, but has show-and-tell, waving the front page of the Washington Post which he says gives all the detailed information that the four Intel men are not. He keeps emphasizing that the story is "detailed," which to him evidently indicates truth. (Comey, as is traditional, had already released today his basic statement answering the questions.) When I went to WaPo, it was behind the paywall. These guys are making a mint.
One interesting time-line sort of story is about what has been necessary to keep this legislation current and effective -- since the technology of communication has changed radically over the years -- and how FISA managers go about detecting problems with the protocols and dealing with them. Much of it is entwined with journalism and responds to things like Nixon recording conversations or the hacking raids on data. Some functions go back to the 19th century.
It got too repetitious and too much like listening to a clueless father demanding that his teenaged daughter "Come here right now and tell me everything! I demand respect! I want to know it all and if you don't stop withholding, I'm going to . . . " There was a consciousness among these suits that they were being watched via the cameras, but not awareness of what it would mean to have some of the information involved go spilling out across the airwaves into yellow journalism and eager sensationalists. Even endangering intel. Nor did they seem to think we could see through their performances. I guess not everyone can.
So then I'd begin to watch the audience. The fashion for messed up and neglected hair on women does not flatter those who do not look like starlets. The men's ties looked as though they'd all been selected by one person shopping at the same store. Not as many fingers were flying over cellphones and tablets as one might expect. Old-fashioned notebooks and binders were present.
Mostly I watched Stephen Miller, the Bannon apprentice, who has been described as the "man with the dead eyes." Indeed, his affect is like a person out of Star Wars, on the wrong side. He was in the front row of the audience, directly behind the panel. He took short notes, underlined some things three times, pressing down hard. His assistant, alongside, was handwriting a LOT, sometimes at his prompting.
In my several incarnations as an information provider (minister, teacher, officer, phone-answerer) over and over people would be asking things that could not be explained because they didn't have any background, any consciousness, or any view of the world except the one they learned in high school. I was constantly reminded of the joke about the two nice ladies of little experience who took a Sunday drive out to the country to see what it was like out there. They stopped along a field where the farmer was stacking hay to ask him some questions. He was a pleasant fellow and polite.
"Now, sir, why is it that some of these cows have horns and some do not?"
"Wal, some cows are bred not to have horns, some are so mean that the horns were sawed off, but that there one has no horns because it is a horse."

Outcomes of the 2014 APL Annual General Meeting
It was announced that APL CEO, Andrew Spencer now fills the role of Company Secretary following the resignation of the previous Company Secretary, Christine Quick.
All items listed on the meeting agenda were passed and voted for in the affirmative.
On the issue of Elected Directors: David Plant and Brian Luxford re-nominated and were unanimously re-instated for a further three year term.
In regard to the Specialist Director nomination which is a Board appointment, the meeting was informed the Board recommend Kay Carey be re-appointed with the meeting voting unanimously to support the Board's recommendation.
The final agenda item dealt with on the day was to do with a change to the APL Constitution Rule Rule10.4A regarding delegate resignation.
The Constitution allows for a resigning Delegate to put forward a replacement Delegate of their own choosing. Under the current Constitution neither the members who appointed the resigning Delegate nor the Board have any say over whether or not the replacement Delegate is suitable. To remedy this, an amendment to the Constitution was proposed that would require any replacement Delegate to be ratified by the Board first prior to becoming a Delegate. It is also proposed that the Constitution be amended to allow the Board to nominate a replacement Delegate if the resigning Delegate fails to do so.
To give effect to these changes a Special Resolution was proposed to delete and replace Rule10.4A of the Constitution dealing with the retirement of Delegates. The differences between the proposed new Rule10.4A and the current Rule10.4A are shown in the mark‑up below.
The Special Resolution to be approved must gain at least 75 per cent of votes cast by members at the Annual General Meeting. The final vote was 99 per cent in favour and one dissention.
10.4A Retirement of Delegates
(a) A person appointed as a Delegate in accordance with Rule 10.3(a) or Rule 10.4A(df)(v) will cease to serve as a Delegate if the person:
(i) resigns by notice in writing to the Company; or
(ii) dies.
(b) Any Delegate who resigns pursuant to Rule 10.4A(a)(i) must, in his or her written notice of resignation to the Company in accordance with that Rule, nominate a person to serve out the remainder of his or her term. The person nominated must be ratified by the Board first prior to becoming a Delegate.
(c) The Board must nominate a person to serve out the remainder of the term of any Delegate who dies or if the resigning Delegate does not nominate a replacement.
(d) The Board must convene a meeting within 30 days of the death of a Delegate or the receipt of a Delegate's notice of resignation pursuant to Rule 10.4A(b) for the purpose of:
(i) considering ratifying the appointment of the person nominated in a Delegate's notice of resignation to serve out the remainder of the resigning Delegate's term; or
(ii) nominating a person to serve out the remainder of the term of any Delegate who dies, or who resigns and does not nominate a replacement, pursuant to clause 10.4A(c); or
(e) If the Board does not ratify the appointment of a person nominated in a Delegate's notice of resignation the Board must advise the resigning Delegate accordingly and the resigning Delegate may nominate another person for the Board to consider. Paragraphs (d) and (e) will reapply as relevant to any such nominee.
(df) A person nominated under Rule 10.4A(b) or 10.4A(c):
(i) must be a natural person;
(ii) may, but need not be, a Member or a Director;
(iii) may, but need not be, a former Delegate;
(iv) must not be a current Delegate; and
(v) following receipt of an invitation from the Company to serve as a Delegate, will be appointed as a Delegate if and when he or she consents, in writing to the Company, to his or her appointment as a Delegate.
(eg) A person who is appointed in accordance with Rule 10.4A(de) will serve as a Delegate from the date of his or her appointment until the Return Date at which the term of the Delegate they are replacing would have expired.

As long as blinking a led is a fairly simple task. Arduino Library is very handy and can really improve the speed of development of a new projects, making your idea real & tangible. Something similar in C would be useful. At this moment one may ask - why to create a new library, when there are already plenty of those available and ready to use ? Well, thinking like that, we may ask ourselves straight away why to even bother and play with an 8-bit machine when there is so powerful and cheap stuff available out there at the moment everywhere nearly ? The answers for both are short and straight forward:
- Because we can and it's fun
- Because we want to learn something
- Because we want to create some real, useful stuff
Another reason to create a library is to have some basic tool set which will be absolutely essential in most of any further developments. First thing which will need in this tool set is a proper (by proper I mean - timer/interrupt based) delay function. I have nothing against a "busy" delay from AVR libc but there is a small problem with that - the delay time cannot be passed as a parameter in the runtime since the delay is calculated during compilation, based upon the defined clock value (F_CPU). Now that's a real problem. We could write a similar function as well, which would spin in a loop for a defined number of time but this is more tricky than it seems - probably the optimizer would simply remove our code since it would detect that it has no functional meaning, the second thing is that it would be really hard to maintain any kind of usable accuracy. Since we have a proper hardware to do that (timers) we will use it.
At the time being I already created a simple library implementing most of the essential functionality, so this post will continue more or less as a supplement to the documentation on how to really use it. The library is hosted on GitHub:
I suggest cloning it to pca directory, since current repository name is my GitHub remote convention naming scheme, which isn't really convenient for every day use:
git clone firstname.lastname@example.com:dagon666/avr_Libpca pca
The documentation for the library, is a doxygen generated html page, available here:
But going back to the topic of timers. Let's discuss how the delay could be implemented. If we program the timer to overflow every 1 ms then automatically we have a 1 ms delay accuracy functionality implemented. It's really simple, here are the steps needed in a little bit more details:
- Program a timer in CTC mode, to overflow every 1 ms.
- Enable timer COMPA/COMPB interrupt
- Set global variable, let's call it "duration" to the number of milliseconds required
- With every timer overflow, decrement the "duration" variable in the interrupt handler
- Block until "duration" > 0
- Disable timer interrupt, since the required amount of time has passed by
First of all we need to program a timer in CTC mode, to be able to specify the exact time needed for it to overflow. Please have a look at the datasheet for more details about how timer behaves in that mode. Let's walk through the code bellow:
Starting from the main function. I setup PORTB as output and initiate it's value to 0x00; Further on I toggle all lines of PORTB with a 0.5 Hz frequency. Let's focus on the delay implementation itself.
I strongly suggest to go through this code with datasheet opened - it will help to understand the setting and the register values a lot. First thing is to enable global interrupts and power to Timer0 - I'll use this timer for delay purposes. I use a macro from AVR libc to power on the timer - all it really does is writes zero to bit PRTIM0 in PRR register which controls the power reduction settings of the MCU, so we can easilly replace that with an explicit bit operation if we want:
_BV is another nifty macro from avr-libc. It performs a bit shift, so in that example it's equivalent to:
PRR &= ~(0x01 << PRTIM0);
Next I setup the Timer0 registers. First in TCR0A I configure Timer0 in CTC mode (WGM01 bit set). I do not care about COM0A1/COM0A0 and COM0B1/COM0B0 settings since I do not plan to output anything on the MCUs OC0A/OC0B pin. Next thing is to configure the prescaler value in TCR0B to 64 (CS01 and CS00 bits are set). At that stage the timer is running. I then configure the value of OC0A to 0x7c (124), accordingly to the formula in the datasheet, the frequency in CTC mode for Timer0 with these settings will be:
f = 16 Mhz / [ 2 * 64 * (1 + 124)] = 1 kHz
and the period:
T = 1/f = 1 ms
Exactly what we need in order to have a 1 ms accurate delay. The timer now is running and overflows with a required frequency. In the next line I configure the duration variable to the requested amount of milliseconds. All that has to be done at that point is to simply enable the OCIE0A (output compare interrupt which happends always when the counter reaches value configured in OC0A) interrupt and block in a while loop until the "duration" variable becomes 0.
In the interrupt handler, the duration variable is decremented (if it has a positive value) each time the interrupt occurs. Once "duration" is equal to zero, I simply mask the OCIE0A interrupt and disable to clock to Timer0 by configuring prescaler to 0. The timer now has been stopped and no further interrupts will be generated.
Because interrupt decrements the "duration" variable every 1 ms. After 1000 ms it will become zero, and the tdelay_ms function will end it's execution. Simple as that :).
The implementation in libpca is exactly the same as the example above, it's a little bit more complex only to provide more flexibility and not to duplicate the code inside of the library, but in general the principle stays the same. How to use timer delays with libpca then ? It's even simpler than our reference code above. Let's start by cloning the library and creating directory for our "test project":
git clone firstname.lastname@example.com:dagon666/avr_Libpca pca
mkdir delay_tests
cd delay_tests
Once inside of our project directory. Let's create two files main.c for our code and Makefile for compilation:
The code is really simple. The first difference is that there are two functions tdelay_init() and the tdelay_ms() function itself. The reason is that we need to configure the timer only once, after that all that needs to be done is to configure the "interrupt variable" and re-enable interrupts. This save some time when tdelay_ms() is called in a very busy loop. The second difference is that you must specify the timer explicitly for every function by using the timer enumeration (E_TIMER0 - E_TIMER2) The library tries to be as much flexible as it is possible. We can use any Timer we want, not only Timer0. One thing needs to be mentioned. In order for the timer delay implementation to work a timer interrupt implementation must be enabled for adequate timer in the library configuration (include/config.h), in case of the example above this should be:
#define TDELAY_IMPLEMENT_T0_INT 1
A complete example can be downloaded here.
I hope that this short introduction has been helpful. Going further there is not much that has to be changed to our existing reference code in order to implement the Arduino Library tone() function - I'll try to cover that next time.

(Code of Ethics reproduced with permission from the Canadian Personal Property Appraisers Group)
Most clients are inquiring for an appraiser for the first time in their lives, and probably won't need one again. As a result they are interested in what's involved, e.g. is the appraisal certified or accredited, and what are the costs. Most people like to know up front what fees are involved. This varies according to:
It is the appraiser's job to set at ease the concerns of the client so there are no surprises, and the appraiser must be totally honest and up front with all these inquiries and earn the trust of the client. This is done with usually a free phone consultation or email, or a combination of both before an agreement is made and prior to inspecting the assets to be appraised by the appraiser.
They must know a full and confidential report will be completed for them that will stand the test of excellence so the client can rest assured that the appraiser will meet the highest professional standards as demanded by the organization that renews his/her qualifications annually.
A successful respected appraiser will possess the following qualities:
Integrity -
Knowledge -
Professionalism -
Generally the fee charged by an appraiser should be independent of the value of the report, i.e. the appraisal fee should not be a percentage of the appraised amount. Assessing a fee on a percentage basis may result in increased vulnerability to the appraiser in cases of litigation.
Wherever you are in Canada or the USA,

Over 120,000 federal employees had their personal information stolen from their Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) accounts. The TSP is a 401(k) type of retirement fund used by active and retired federal employees and members of the military. This story was reported on Saturday (A2, The Washington Post).
So here's the terrible news in case you missed it. The hacking happened last July (!!) but it's unknown when it was discovered. The FBI found out about it (unknown just when) and alerted the TSP and the affected contractor last month. The FBI says it's still investigating the breach.
Here's the bad news in a nutshell:
- Hackers got into the computers of the contractor, Serco, that handles the TSP accounts.
- They stole the SSNs from 123,201 accounts.
- Out of those 123,201 affected accounts, about 79,600 accounts had only "some" TSP-related information stolen.
- However, the remaining 40,000+ accounts also had names, addresses and, in some cases, financial account and routing numbers stolen.
- Serco and the FBI shut down the hacked computer.
- Serco began a review of the TSP security procedures and strengthened the security protections.
What else is TSP saying and doing?
- TSP says it's monitoring the hacked accounts for any suspicious activity.
- They said there's "no reason" to belief that the personal information's been used for criminal purposes.
- It took TSP more than a month to start alerting the affected people because they said they needed to cross-match the information the FBI provided about the hacking to the files to identify which accounts were hacked and what personal information was stolen.
- Letters are going out to the people whose accounts were hacked.
- The letters will tell recipients how to contact a call center that's been established to provide information about services TSP is offering that include credit monitoring.
So what should you do — right now and if you get a letter?
- Look at your TSP account right now just to make sure it's intact.
- Call the TSP call center immediately if you get the letter.
- Take the credit monitoring. Make sure to ask whether the credit monitoring service being offered will notify the other credit monitoring agencies. You want to make sure that all 3 credit monitoring agencies are on the alert.
Finally, keep on the alert for any potential misuses of your personal information. Yes, the hacking happened last July but hackers can and do keep using stolen information for as long as they can.

Shrove Tuesday. Tomorrow is PANCAKE DAY!
Lets have a freshen up on what Shrove Tuesday is all about. Firstly its a day of feasting, feasting before Ash Wednesday when the first day of fasting occurs associated with the day preceding Lent becauseit was a way to use up rich food stuffs such as eggs, milk, and sugar, before the fasting season of the 40 days of Lent.. 'Shrove' means being forgiven for any wrong doings. Depending on religions and areas of the world it is named different things, shrove tuesday, pancake day, Mardi Gras or grease tuesday are but a few.
For us though its a day where we eat pancakes, like all day. Pancakes! It should really be its own food group. Pancakes are soooooo good! I prefer thicker more american style pancakes. So does my family, and lets be honest I do most of the cooking so that's how its gonna be.
I have many, many pancake recipes Tried and tested over the years, with and without eggs, gluten free, refined sugar free, dairy free… The list is endless. In my recipe books I have written no less than 15 different types and some being epic fails and others being awesome. Obsessed much? My ferals love pancakes and so this is a staple breakfast in our household, not to mention being Home educuated they actually get 3 breakfast's most days it fills busy, active bellies!
Naturally you can replace anything for a non-Vegan alternative. These though go down a storm as they are slightly crunchy around the edge and stodgy pancake goodness on the inside!
Remember quite often the first pancake doesn't turn out well.
Pancake Recipe
- 2 TBLS Metled vegan butter
- 2 Tbls Melted coconut oil (I like extra virgin cold pressed)
- 2 Tbls Organic Coconut palm sugar
- 2 Cups of organic Self raising Flour (can use GF if needed)
- 1/4 cup of coconut flour
- 3/4 Cup of Cashew or Oat Milk (you can use any)
- Mix the dry ingredients together and blend together well getting rid of any lumps
- Melt the butter and oil if you haven't already done so.
- Add butter, oil, and milk to the dry mixture and whisk till smooth (if uing gluten free flour I find it thicken the longer it sits, this can be fixed by just adding milk)
- Heat a small dollop of Coconut oil in a pan, let it melt and get hot.
- Add a ladle of batter (we like smaller pancakes about the size of a side plate)
- Wait for lots of bubbles to occur, don't rush this process let the bubbles pop up till there are quite a few in the middle use a spatula to flip it over.
- Cook for a few minutes on the other side
- Voila that is it.
These pancakes are Vegan and tasty. I find people have a fairly specific taste when it comes to P-cakes…… Remind me never to call the P-cakes again! But these have past the test. We like blueberries, or banana's and chocolate, lemon and sugar or Butter and syrup.
Nutritionally these are fairly empty calories unless you want to count the fortified calcium and B12 in the milk we use. I don't think it counts though. Its a super easy recipe my 5 year old feral can actual make these on his own. So just enjoy pancake day for what it is. EATING SHIT LOADS OF PANCAKES!
Whats Your favorite pancake topping?
Did you get a perfect first pancake?
Let me know!

Lima 4Wheel Jamboree Nationals
May 20th - 22nd, 2011
This past weekend On The Rocks Off Road attended the 26th Annual Spring 4-Wheel Jamboree Nationals in Lima, OH. We took the Screamin Eagle Rock Buggy to display. This was the first show we have displayed this rig at and we had a lot of attention with its one of a kind features. As always these shows are a ball to go to with every year the trucks getting bigger and bigger and the rock crawlers getting more and more modified. Even the kids wagons are lifted as you can see the Pink John Deere and Black n Grey wagons towards the bottom of the picture. Thanks to everyone for letting us snap pictures of their rigs and hope to see you at Indy!!
Ohio 4x4 Spring Picnic
Ohio 4x4 held their Spring Picnic in Warsaw, OH. and invited us to bring our rigs along. We took 2 rigs down but unfortunately one of the rigs had electrical issues while we were there. Thankfully the guys with Ohio 4x4 were more than willing to lend a hand to help us get it running again and back to the trailer. Nothing better than great wheeling, great food, and hanging out with some great people!! Thanks again to the Ohio 4x4 Club for having us along!
Stillwell ATV Benefit Ride
April 2nd & 3rd, 2011
Stillwell Stompers held a ATV Benefit Ride in Killbuck, OH. and even though we don't do much with ATV's we went down to check it out. We road with one of the land owners/trail leader and were very impressed as to what these little things can do! We had a blast during the run and as well as during the dinner, raffle, and auction. They raffled and auctioned off anything from a gallon of 2cycle oil to a full Polaris 4wheeler. The proceeds go to help one of the family members of a Stillwell Stompers club member. A great thanks to all that came to ride and to help put this on!
Ohio 4x4 Annual Truck Bash
March 26th, 2011
Ohio 4x4 Club held their Annual Truck Bash in Warsaw, OH. and invited us to come along. Our rig was down during this time so we went down and road along. Despite the chilly weather we had a great time as we always do with Ohio 4x4. They had 2 rigs roll during this event and luckily we were able to catch the one of film. No major damage or injuries occurred. Thanks again to the Ohio 4x4 club and the Frazer family for making us feel at home during this event.
Toys for Tots Toy Drive
December 11th, 2010
This past weekend On The Rocks Off Road in conjunction with the Marine Corps held a Toys for Tots toy drive at the Wooster, OH. Wal-Mart December 11th, 2010. We had 6 rigs stationed out front of the store for the public to come check out, watch video of our rigs wheeling, and donate toys. The theme of the event was "Fill the Jeeps with Toys" and as you can see in the picture they did just that. We were able to fill the Marines full size panel van completely full of toys and fill the cash donation can with lots of monetary donations. All proceeds from this event go towards the local Marine Corps Toys for Tots Foundation. Thanks to every ones greatly appreciated donations lots of kids will have a great Christmas!
Special Thanks to everyone that came out and donated, all the friends that came out with their rigs and helped out all day, and the Marine Corps for running the Toys for Tots Foundation! Without these people we could have never had this successful of an event!
Uwharrie, NC. Southern Crew Trail Ride
November 20th, 2010
This past weekend the Southern On The Rocks Off Road Crew went to Uwharrie National Forest in Troy, NC. We just had a couple of rigs for this trip but ran into a group from Low Range 4x4 out of Wilmington, NC. They had some very sick rigs all very modified! The Blue JK on the lower left has a 6.1 Hemi and was very equipped but still broke a front axle later in the day. They are associated with Off Road Evolution who makes some of these sick parts for these JK's. We were unable to attend the Rockvember event that was going on down there this weekend but plan to hit that up next year. That aside we had a great day of wheeling with some great friends and met some great people out on the trail.
The Screamin Eagle Rock Buggy Maiden Voyage
November 14th, 2010
This past weekend was the debut of a 3 year rock buggy project by Rick Kemp of Eagle Equipment. The buggy is called The Screamin Eagle. The CJ10 Tub sits on half of a YJ frame with the rest being all 1 3/4" DOM 120 Wall Tubing. A total of 200 feet of tubing was used in this project. The CJ10 is very unique as you can notice the grill has 9 slots compared to the 7 slot grill of all other Jeeps. The hood is a normal CJ hood but is painted with a very light grey ghost flame. This monster is pushing 38.5" Mickey Thompson Baja Claws with a Chevy 400 Small Block Fuel Injected, Turbo 400 Tranny with B&M Shifter, and Twin Stick 4.3:1 Atlas Transfer Case. In case that isn't enough there is a T-Max 10,000# Winch in the front and Mile Marker 9,500# Winch on the rear. The front end is supported by a mix of 4" & 6" YJ leafs while the rear is Quarter Elliptic with a mix of 4" & 6" YJ Springs and home made long arms. The front axle is a 8 lug Dana 44 with 4:10 gears and the rear is a Corporate 14 Bolt Full Float with a Detroit Locker and 4:10 gears with a disc brake conversion. For steering Rick chose to go with a full PSC System from the Steering Box, Pump, to the Hydraulic Assist. All 4 corners are sporting Bilstein 5150 Shocks. At night the trail is lighted by many lights underneath but in front are KC custom made headlights with high and low beams both. The top is a Bestop Half Cab that was custom made to fit with this body. The 15 gallon fuel cell to feed the monster sits in the home made tool box along with plenty of storage for parts and tools.
The debut of the buggy was to be about a year earlier but due to health problems of being diagnosed with Cancer twice during this build it slowed the process. The first actual debut of the buggy was at the Richard Childress Vineyard in NC for Justin & Julie Kemp's wedding. The buggy was only road worthy at that time and since then has had the final touches to make it trail worthy. This buggy not only looks and sounds great but it also tears up the trail just as you would picture it to.
Congratulations to Rick for this great build and we look forward to riding with him and his buggy out on the trails!
Stillwell Stompers Trail Ride
October 17th, 2010
This past weekend we attended Stillwell Stompers October trail ride. We had a good turn out with no one having any major damage. All the trails were dry which made for excellent traction and made it so we could push our rides to the limit even more. This was the last ride of the year for the club on the home grounds due to hunting season. They will continue to run the rest of the year but it will be in other locations. Overall this was a great day of wheeling to end the 2010 rides down there. Thanks again to the Stillwell Stompers!
Jeep Rocks & Road Tour
October 9th, 2010
This past weekend the Southern On The Rocks Off Road Crew went to the Jeep, Rocks, & Road Tour in Charlotte, NC. This is an event that Jeep is putting on in place of the old Camp Jeep. They have a road and off road course you can test drive new Jeeps on, there was a off road course for Jeep owners to take their own jeeps on, balancing ramp, mud pit, and they even had a kids course set up for the little ones to drive power wheel Jeeps around. They had tents set up displaying the new coming Jeeps and a history tent set up showing the history of Jeep. This was a great event to attend wether your a novice or expirienced. Thanks to Jeep for putting on a great event!
Ohio 4x4 Trailriders Club Picnic
October 3rd, 2010
This past weekend we attended the Ohio 4x4 Trailriders Club Picnic. We wheeled on 2 of the club members property as well this day. We didn't make it very far on the first trail due to loosing a rear coil within the first ten minutes. The second piece of property was a great place! Rocks, hills, twist, mud, just about everything. We ended up smashing our front fender as you can see above when we put our jeep on its side. The total damage this weekend was- front 4x4 tractor axle housing broke, Toyota Birfield Joint broke, 2 exhaust broke off, one mirror, one leaf spring center pin broke, and a t-case went out. This was a great day with a great bunch of wheelers! We look forward to wheeling with them again. If you are located in southern Ohio and looking to join a club then check them out! Thanks to the Ohio 4x4 Trailriders Club and the Frazer family for inviting us out for this event and their hospitality!
EC4WDA Sand Drags - September 25th
Stillwell Stompers Trail Ride - September 26th
This past weekend we attended 2 events.
First was the EC4WDA Sand Drags. Though our main focus is on trail riding and rock crawling we still like to check out different events such as this. The cars, jeeps, trucks, dragsters... were all something else to watch! That much horsepower on sand as soon as the light goes green is a cool sight, with rooster tails of sand down the whole length of the strip. We did not drag our jeep due to we exceeded the horsepower limit with our 6 cylinder... Thanks to EC4WDA for putting on a good show!
Second was a Stillwell Stompers Trail Ride. We had a good size group this ride with everyone well modified. We hit some of the hardest trails they have to offer with only 3 breaks through out the day. We broke our front driveshaft on the trail 37 Heaven, and two other members broke front axles on the Raveen. The last break of the day with the front axle was the most severe with it destroying the entire axle. Overall a great day of wheeling as usual with the Stillwell Stompers.
Indianapolis 4Wheel Jamboree Nationals
September 17th - 19th
This past weekend On The Rocks Off Road attended the Indy Jamboree. As you can see from above this show contains some amazing rigs! We had a hard time choosing the best one so we just went with our favorite ones. This is a 3 day show but we only attended for Saturday and Sunday. Indy is always a great time and a chance to see some of the most amazing rigs in the midwest & east coast, and we were lucky enough to get to see Bigfoot's largest monster truck pictured above. If you have never been before check into it for next year, it will be worth going to!
This week Wooster Diesel is displaying & selling our film in their booth at the Wayne County Fair.
A Big thanks to them for their support!!!
Stillwell StompersTrail Ride
September 11th, 2010
This past weekend we attended a Stillwell Stompers trail ride. We had a small group of about 4 Jeeps. We were able to hit a lot of trails due to having a small group which made for a great day. The top picture is the beginning of a new trail within the Stone Quarry Trail that we have been trying to establish. Not many jeeps have tried their luck on this trail yet but have had some attempts. We almost went all day without any breakage but on the last trail we broke a heavy duty tie rod and a front axle u-joint which also took out the outer shaft. Luckily another member had spare shafts and tie rod and we were able to get off the trail. Thanks to Mike for that! Also thanks again to the Stillwell Stompers!
Erie Shores Trail Ride- Wellsville, OH.
September 4th, 2010
This past weekend we were invited to join Erie Shores Jeeps & 4x4s for their September trail ride. The run was in Wellsville, OH and it was a Great time! As usual on a holiday weekend it was packed and a lot of crazy people. That aside it was a great day of wheeling with a great bunch of Jeepers with no major damage or breaks. Thanks to Erie Shores for having us along! We look forward to joining them again soon for more rides.
On The Rocks Off Road
Northern & Southern Crew Joint Trail Ride
August 28th, 2010
This past weekend the southern crew came to Ohio to join us for a run to see some of the new terrain we have been developing. We covered a lot of trails with a group of 5. We even attempted the Big Ravine that we broke both axles on just a month ago. We still had to winch out this time but with no broke parts. (as you can see in the bottom picture above it is not a easy climb out, and we are climbing the easier side). Luckily everyone drove their rigs off the trails this time with no major damage except for some body damage. Thanks to the Hawkins family for letting us arrange this run!
Stillwell Stompers Trail Ride
August 22nd, 2010
This past weekend our jeep was down due to many reasons but the main reason was a broke tranny mount and we weren't able to get a new one before the trail ride. That didn't stop us from attending though. We bummed a ride with the JK above on 38's.If you havn't wheeled in a JK yet you need to try it! It was one of the most comfy luxurious rides on the trail i have ever had. Thanks again to Jason for the lift that day. Below is a Very capable Samurai going through one of the rock gardens on Stone Quarry Trail. We will be back down in Stillwell again this weekend with our Southern Crew as they are coming up to check out some of our new trails.
Thanks again to all of our fans for their support!!!
Stillwell Stompers Benefit Ride
August 14th & 15th
OTR Off Road is finally back out on the trails!!!! After 14 hours of rebuilding both axles on Saturday we were able to make it to the run for Sunday. We didn't push our jeep very hard this weekend, seeing as how we have just been down for 3 weeks we wanted to stay running for a while. It was a slick day with all the rain we had and the mud on the rocks. Luckily no sever damage this weekend, the worst was one roll over on Saturday and a broke front axle on Sunday and a few other minor incidents in between. Overall a great day of wheeling!! Thanks again to the Stillwell Stompers!
This past weekend no one at On The Rocks Off Road was able to go wheeling. Due to the northern crews jeep still being down from last weekend and the southern crew is moving. We hope to be back on the trails this weekend but if not, for sure the week after. Stillwell Stompers is having a Benefit Ride that weekend and Superlift's 4xAdventure Series run in Winchester, VA. is that weekend as well. We will be at one of them, jeep or no jeep! Keep checking back to see whats new. Thanks for all of our fans Support!!!
4 Wheel Drive Hardware Show-July 24th
Stillwell Stompers Run-July 25th
On The Rocks attended 2 events this past weekend. First was the 4wd Hardware Show at their store in Columbiana, OH. The show was great with a great turn out! The only bad thing that day was the HEAT! There were many companies there to show off their products and 4wd Hardware was offering great deals on all products. We saw a wide range of Jeeps- show, mudders, and rock crawlers. If you were not able to make it to their show this year make sure to mark your calendar for next year.
The second event we attended was Stillwell Stomper's monthly run. We had a great day of wheeling. We pushed our Jeep to the limit that day and as results of that as we are showing above we snapped the drivers side rear 8.8 axle shaft and stripped the spider gears out of the front dana 30. It may have shut us down for the rest of the day but we will have it back up and on the trails as soon as we can so we can catch more of the footage you love to see.
July 17th & 18th
Part of the On The Rocks family visited Carolina Beach this past weekend. Although some of the vehicles there may be more for show than go we still think they are sweet! This beach doesn't have big hills or any hard obstacles but is a nice place to go relax, show off your rig, and get a tan.
July 10th, 2010
On The Rocks Off Road visited Outback Off Road's Adventure Park in Eau Claire, PA this past weekend. We had a great time at this park and there was much we didn't get to wheel. We had to call it a early day due to overheating issues, suspension issues, and one of the winches not working. They have everything at this park whether your stock or modified.
Check them out at- www.outbackoffroadadventure.com
*** July 4th, 2010 ***
We hope everyone had a great Independence Day!!! Although we had invites to several trail rides we had to keep close to home due to other obligations this past weekend. That doesn't mean we left the Jeep's sit! They got cleaned up and put some road miles on them. Above is at the fireworks in our hometown.
Stillwell Stompers Run
June 27th 2010
On The Rocks attended Stillwell Stompers last weekend and had an absolute blast! (even though we smashed a few body panels and got a flat!). Speaking of body panels that is a 2008 4dr JK in the upper right side that slid into a tree! We had one roll over that day with minor damage and no injuries. Every one that attended had an awesome time and we can't wait to get back down!! Thanks again to the Stillwell Stompers!!
JUNE 18th 2010
On The Rocks Off Road attended our home towns Cruise In. This show had everything from our jeeps to sky high trucks - low riders - motorcycles - and of course the classic cars. Pictures from the show are in the photo gallery under Car & Truck Shows. This picture has got to be my favorite car show picture i have ever taken!!! You don't get many chances to snap a picture of your rig (with our company banner) in front of a classic court house with the time clock and the GREAT AMERICAN FLAG waving in the back ground!
We attended a Poker Run put on by High Country Off Road this past weekend in Elizabeth, WV. Although mud is not our main thing it is fun to play in now and again, and that is exactly what we had here. We did deal with some rain while we where there but that just added to the fun of the mud. There was a range of vehicles from stock to slightly modified to modified. This was an overall well organized and fun Poker Run.
If you are in this area and looking for a club check them out! They are a great bunch of guys and gals to wheel with! Whether your stock or modified they have something for you.
Justin & Julie were married at Childress Vineyard in NC this past weekend and the get away Jeep behind them is a CJ10 which is owned and built by Rick Kemp. This is the project Jeep we featured at the end of Midwest Style and the wedding was her maiden voyage.

This was revealed recently by minister of information Lai Mohammed who said shooting videos outside the country doesn't add to the nation's economy.
Different celebrities have started reacting to the FG's plan. PSquare, Kcee, Yemi Alade, Falz, Ruggedman, Charly Boy are some of those who have slammed the minister and the FG's decision.
See their reactions below:
So FG wants to ban entertainers from shooting abroad. Talk about misplaced priorities 😒😒😒 *deep sigh*— #Jeje (@falzthebahdguy) 17 July 2017
What happened to trying to fix ACTUAL problems?!?!— #Jeje (@falzthebahdguy) 17 July 2017
Yemi Alade
"So will all the money artists have spent shooting videos that are yet to be released be refunded? You might think that a musical video is just a thing we do!!, It's a business! You don't understand!! "The video directors we use round the world are also Nigerians," she said.
#MinisterFaceYourWork A woman has just been arrested for exchanging her 2 month old baby for a bag of rice. That's how hard the situation in our country is getting. *Meanwhile the budget to run the Nigerian Senate this 2017 is N215billion. A government that has not in anyway supported or encouraged the Nigerian entertainment industry,now thinks it can control it. An industry that men and women have single handedly built? BIG JOKE! We watch you use the country any how you like because unfortunately, you are the ones at the helm of affairs. We all see how that has been going since 1960. You are not providing jobs for the masses. Education is poor, our Nigerian certificates are more useless than tissue paper outside Nigeria. *Meanwhile the budget to run the Nigerian Senate this 2017 is N215billion. There's no stable electricity. Security is not stable. Our hospitals are not equipped, to the extent our president is recieving treatment in a London hospital. *Meanwhile the budget to run the Nigerian Senate this 2017 is N215billion. Nigerians who are not related to any rich family are on their own. Entertainment that has kept a lot of Nigerians off the street is what you want to try to destroy. You havent helped us fight pirates. You havent helped us get our royalties. You have not set up anything to help the Nigerian entertainment industry. *Meanwhile the budget to run the Nigerian Senate this 2017 is N215billion. Amenities we lack are a few of the reasons some entertainers go outside the country to shoot music videos and movies. Now you want to try to stop that? Please do not make me laugh. Even America where their govt gives their citizens amenities they deserve still shoot movies in other countries. Nigerian government should stop giving us jokes and give us light, equip and pay our forces. Equip our hospitals enough so that even our president can be treated here. Stop owing pensioneers,doctors and teachers. Stop sending your kids to schools abroad. It's Nigeria's money you are spending abroad. *Meanwhile the budget to run the Nigerian Senate this 2017 is N215billion. Spend our money on our land and it's people. #MinisterFaceYourWork
Charly Boy
"Fact is, most Nigerians don't count our ministers' pronouncements as serious these days. Many see him as a clueless and overly excited Minister who makes a lot of funny declarations without due consultations. You won't be wrong if you call him irrational, or if you like, a bigmouth; you may also want to consider him a fabulist, or if you are trying to be modest like me, just call him the King of spoofs. Haha…a joke called minister."
Peter Okoye (PSquare)
Paul Okoye (PSquare)
Undoubtedly,entertainment: Music,Comedy,Sport, and Film productions are the highest-ranking human resource export from Nigeria.Government should protect their intellectual property and invest into its capacity building. I have observed with keen interest the recent reports credited to the honourable minister of information and culture,proposing to ban the production of our indigenous films abroad.instead of such pronouncements,I expect a mutual partnership with government and all stake holders in the entertainments industry.what level of support has government provided to growth of entertainment in terms of protecting their works?piracy is still on the high,most of the actors,actresses and producers do not earn what's is obtainable in other parts of the world in terms of technical,social support and general contribution to their well being.I recommend that instead of putting laws to check the issue of films produced outside Nigeria.Government should invest in the sector to develop it,introduce partnership that will bring about government earning funds from the services provided through technical equipment, logistic sites, and establishment of a standard Nollywood village.more so soft loans should be provided to aid film production ,while the ministry of information and culture should engage the film writer and producers to build contents that can significantly profile our image as a country.instead of confrontation,which will not be in the best interest of both the government and the artistes.

Chloe Amour – Prey For The Dying
Chloe invites a security guard into her tool shed. There were many tools there but she was only interested in one; the one located in his pants!
So after making out with him her next move was to unzip his fly and suck his penis. She gave great head as always before she rode him in cowgirl position like there was no tomorrow. He wanted to jizz on her face and she accepted it with a big smile :)

The Lewis Blackman Story" informed by Helen Haskell, a person who continues to advocate for change and improved high quality of care. The quantity of respect I actually have for nurses and different medical professionals who do their jobs as they need to be done is immense. Delivery of health companies sometimes difficult because of the sheer size of our nation and small inhabitants, smaller than that of California. So does socialized drugs work, just check how European and Scandinavian nations deliver well being care to their residents.
These varieties of is a non-profit organization are useful in connecting people with a library of data and assets that will help with medical value. BlueCare Direct is the latest modern product BCBSIL will provide both on and off the Illinois Health Insurance Marketplace. The pharmacy chain previously staffed the retail well being clinics with its personal workers or nurse practitioners.
If I would have taken your recommendation, I would have been toothless at 17 after I had main dental problems as a consequence of a well being problem. The solely time it is actually a pain is on wet days, once I find myself wishing we may use the disabled parking spots up entrance or at least park someplace closer. Many doctors are all concerning the dates of your last interval and, because of this, extra more likely to misdiagnose you.
One of the best sources I got here across for information on healthcare pricing is the Healthcare Blue Book It is a wonderful source for every part healthcare, and I recommend that anyone needing medical care take time to discover this nice web site. My level is for somebody who is not accustomed to caring for patients and the each day life struggle of a nurse its very overwhelming.
The mannequin of physicians as knowledge-entry clerks was experimental from the beginning, especially in busy inpatient settings and important care areas. Current At-Large Board member Laurel Pickering, Northeast Business Group on Health was re-elected to serve a second time period. As time passed, the technical aspects of well being care grew to become state of the art, and health care as an industry grew to become primarily targeted on revenue and progress, dropping the private contact. Family medical doctors are good about referrals as a way to get into the system as early as attainable. This helps create a tradition of accountability that can have a positive effect on care outcomes.

Preliminary results of algorithmic improvements in libvpx to improve quality.
In a recent blog, we outlined an approach to improve the compression efficiency of the libvpx VP9 encoder, and identified four key areas of improvement:
Temporal complexity based enhanced quantization decisions | Improved spatial adaptive quantization
Scene based modelling | Support for cinematic effects
We've been working on most of the above areas and the initial results show up to 10% improvement in compression efficiency.
Let us take a quick look at the results.
Content type
The content test cases include the following types and span between 10 and 580 seconds in duration:
- Mixed television content (multiple genres)
- Animation content
- Movie content (multiple genres)
- Low resolution videos
The content test cases include the following types and span between 10 and 580 seconds in duration:
libvpx build and settings
We started our algorithmic improvements on the following libvpx build:
Commit id: '6fed5692d2bf4b5ea54ac9e02261d7a097d88dbc' in libvpx github (dated 30th March 2017)
We measured results across both two pass and single pass encoding modes. Here are the corresponding high level configurations:
- 2 Pass Config 1: ''good", – –cpu-used=1 preset, ARF enabled, 2 second key frame interval
- 2 Pass Config 2: ''good', – –cpu-used=5 preset, ARF enabled, 2 second key frame interval
- Single Pass Config: ''good", – –cpu-used=5 preset, ARF enabled, 2 second key frame interval, lag = 2 seconds
Quality measurement method
Our analysis was based on BD rate improvements. The BD rate was derived using average MSE based PSNR metric, based on four operating points.
Summary of preliminary results
The content test cases include the following types and span between 10 and 580 seconds in duration:
- Identical improvements in both the two pass configurations – i.e., an improvement of ~5% in BD-rate on an average across the entire content set
- Higher improvements particularly on the mixed television content set, averaging ~9% across the subset that included television drama, news and sports
- Similar overall improvement of ~5% across the entire content set, with the addition of look ahead processing to the single pass encoding mode
We are continuing to characterize the results better and will carry out a more comprehensive exercise after completing all the algorithmic improvements. The preliminary results validate our approach and put us on track to bring libvpx on par with popular implementations of competing video standards.
Reach out to us at firstname.lastname@example.com for more insights into the improvements or evaluation of the improved version.

Nexus – watch this space!
By: Nina Skrzynski
Nexus Australia Co- Chair and New Generation of Giving member
Originally published in Philanthropy Australia, March 29, 2016.
Young people, innovation and collaboration on an international scale are crucial to solving our most critical social problems, and they are mobilising to do exactly that.
The Nexus Global Youth Summit brings together some of the brightest young minds in the world in their chosen fields, who may have otherwise never met. Nexus aims to manufacture these strokes of serendipity in an environment built to motivate.
My first experience attending a Nexus event in Sydney in 2014 was transformational in terms of my perspective. By day I run an interior design firm designing restaurants bars and people's homes, a world far removed from the world of social enterprise and philanthropy, and whilst I had some experience through my family's foundation and the wonderful New Generation of Giving programme through philanthropy Australia, attending my first Nexus conference literally made me stop in my tracks and change the way I thought about everything moving forward.
I was so inspired listening to a unique intersection of skilled speakers, then discussing the sessions afterwards with delegates who were equal parts awe struck and motivated to translate what they'd just heard into their philanthropic strategy or new project
In the humble and understated world of Australian philanthropy, without opportunities to meet fellow delegates at events like Nexus, I would never have known there were so many like-minded people – those fascinated by B-corps, social impact bonds, and efficiencies and innovations in social change.
I seized the opportunity to chair this year's 2016 Nexus summit held in Sydney at the beginning of this month and wanted to share the best elements of 2016 Nexus panels and breakouts.
The Intergeneration Philanthropy Panel featuring Michael and David Gonski and Quin & Cathy Scalzo was riveting, all egos were checked at the door and what ensued was a generously honest discussion into family values and the difference in 1st/2nd generational giving strategies and motivations.
The Unconscious Bias Training was a favourite breakout session held by Robert Wood, from the Centre of Ethical Leadership, and had delegates, speakers, and sponsors alike questioning their unrealised bias's and preconceptions in everyday life.
One of the standout keynotes from our special international speakers was listening to the enigmatic and charismatic Taylor Conroy speak so passionately on how he is catalysing change in the third world one school and house at a time through the power of strategic fundraising and peer to peer giving circles at Change Heroes.
This year the Nexus organising committee wanted to also feature some more dynamic sessions to add another dimension to the standard conference plenary and breakout sessions. These included a screening and talk from Good Pitch founder Melinda Wink, a real time Q&A session featuring our standout keynote speakers and moderated by Geraldine Doogue. This new session, for the first time at Nexus, featured a live twitter feed encouraging live audience input which resulted in the #WeAreNexus hashtag trending on Twitter nationally and a call from the ABC newsroom wanting to find out Nexus was all about.
Lastly we held a demonstration of the 10 x 10 philanthropy model, a live pitch session which showcased 3 start up social entrepreneurs who are changing up the way we think of solving social issues within our local communities and abroad all vying for their share in the ANZ's pledged funds to support them.
Nexus aims to start some change in this world and the event for under 40's brings together people with ideas and those with the means to enact change.
I can't wait to see the collaborations and initiatives that come out of this year's 2016 Nexus Global Summit.
Watch this space!

Russian military 'almost certainly' responsible for destructive 2017 cyber attack
An assessment by the National Cyber Security Centre has found that the Russian military was almost certainly responsible for the 'NotPetya' cyber attack of June 2017.
The UK Government has made the judgement that the Russian government was responsible for the attack, which particularly affected Ukraine's financial, energy and government institutions but its indiscriminate design caused it to spread further, affecting other European and Russian business.
The destructive attack masqueraded as ransomware, but its purpose was principally to disrupt. Several indicators seen by the NCSC demonstrated a high level of planning, research and technical capability.
The decision to publicly attribute this incident reiterates the position of the UK and its allies that malicious cyber activity will not be tolerated.
Foreign Office Minister of State with responsibility for Cyber, Lord (Tariq) Ahmad of Wimbledon, said:
"The UK Government judges that the Russian Government, specifically the Russian military, was responsible for the destructive NotPetya cyber-attack of June 2017.
"The attack showed a continued disregard for Ukrainian sovereignty. Its reckless release disrupted organisations across Europe costing hundreds of millions of pounds.
"The Kremlin has positioned Russia in direct opposition to the West: it doesn't have to be that way. We call upon Russia to be the responsible member of the international community it claims to be rather then secretly trying to undermine it.
"The United Kingdom is identifying, pursuing and responding to malicious cyber activity regardless of where it originates, imposing costs on those who would seek to do us harm.
"We are committed to strengthening coordinated international efforts to uphold a free, open, peaceful and secure cyberspace."
The NotPetya attack saw a malicious data encryption tool inserted into a legitimate piece of software used by most of Ukraine's financial and government institutions.
Once an organisation's machine was infected, the highly crafted tool was designed to spread rapidly, in some cases overriding the Master Boot Record (MBR) on infected computers and displaying a ransom note asking for payment in Bitcoins. The malware spread via trusted networks, rather than widely over the internet. Therefore, it effectively bypassed the processes put in place to prevent ransomware attacks.
The ransom note instructed victims to make payments to a single Bitcoin wallet with confirmation that they had paid. However, flaws in the payment process quickly became apparent as the ransom note did not display a 'personal identification ID' which would enable the attacker to know whose data to decrypt and the payment collection infrastructure was quickly taken down by the attacker's email provider.
The malware was not designed to be decrypted. This meant that there was no means for victims to recover data once it had been encrypted. Therefore, it is more accurate to describe this attack as destructive than as ransomware.
NotPetya used the EternalBlue and EternalRomance exploits, which the Shadowbrokers group released in early 2017. Microsoft issued a patch for both exploits.

This course has seen better days. It used to be something, but now it's not even worth the drive up from the Albany area. Slow pace of play, fair conditions at best, and steep summer prices all contribute to the sad state of affairs.\
At one point during our round we had an 8 some playing together ahead of us, and a 6 some behind us. 4 hours pace of play? More like 5.

On the positive, it's wide open, well maintained, and affordable for NY residents. On the negative, gets kind of boring. Few dog legs, no water on the back 9, and traps are a big issue. Greens are challenging and big, which makes up for the long, open fairways with little variation.

Yum…fall is so upon us. Soups. Stews. Hotpot. Cinnamon. Pumpkin. Hot food.
Actually, the first thing I think of when it's cold is this place in Minnesota called the Tofu House. We visited Minnesota over the summer for a college visit. We wanted some traditional Chinese food, but couldn't find the restaurant because there was tons of construction all around the University. I forget what the restaurant was called, but we needed to ask for directions. We asked the couple who ran the Tofu House directions, and they basically begged us to eat at their restaurant. We declined, but then thought about it later and went to eat it the next day.
And boy were we glad we did. It was a Korean restaurant; everything was new to us. Everything had tofu in it (duh) in this hotpot/stew sort of dish. Then there were the little "appetizer" sort of things that they always serve at meals. The food was delicious, but it was a real hot summer day, especially for Minnesota (90°). We were all sweating by the end. But even with that heat, we could all imagine eating there at the typical Minnesota winter with 5 feet walls of snow. Oh man.
So basically all that was to expound on how much I love hot food on a cold day. Now that it's November and that the leaves are beautiful, baking is a great way to pass the time on the weekends (as if we have time to procrastinate on homework…). These ginger cookies are delicious, be it warm or cool (though they are best straight from the oven, obviously). The spices give the illusion of warmth and they're so good with a nice cup of tea.
Sigh. Happy baking.

Ginger Cookies (adapted from allrecipes.com)
(Makes 2 dozen cookies)
- 2 1/4 cups whole-wheat flour
- 2 tsp ground ginger

- 1/4 cup molasses
- Raw sugar
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, ginger, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, and salt. In a larger bowl, cream together butter and sugar until nice and fluffy. Add vanilla and egg, beating well. Stir in the orange juice and molasses. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 350°F and line baking sheets with parchment paper. Pour raw sugar into a plate. Shape dough into walnut sized pieces and roll in the raw sugar. Press down until flat.
- Bake for 8-10 min. Allow to cool, then transfer onto wire rack.

PERC light always on
Hey fellas, new to the forum, and Polaris.
Picked up a 2005 switchback turned RMK near the end of last season. The ole 800 Liberty has 3400 miles on it, and basically got the full monty most of you are already familiar with at 2100. Anyway, getting to my issue, my PERC light is on all the time. I've had the sled out for three rides since I've owned it and reverse works well and exactly as it should aside from the light. Wiring looks good and the switch seems good also. I'm at least familiar enough with what the stock bars and switch set up would've been, and it's clear a RMK pro PERC switch in use. That said I figure the light has something to do with how the new PERC switch works with the older electronics of this model. Has anyone seen this before or have any insight on what else I should look at? Suppose it could be a difference in resistance loads from the old switch to the new? I do not have a wiring diagram to look at the signaling..
Last edited by Batwolf; 10-02-2017 at 07:10 AM.
Ideas anyone?
The stock switch makes a momentary contact closure when pushed to trigger the CDI and when released the contacts open. Does your new switch close the contact when pushed or does it open the contact when pushed? If it is a contact closure like the original then your problem lies elsewhere.
I have attached the wiring diagram for your sled. You will see the reverse light is turned on by a ground on the white lead from pin 9 of the CDI. The reverse switch puts a momentary ground on the grey lead on pin 22 of the CDI when pushed.
The older I get the better I was. In fact now that I think about it I'm a legend!
Haven't outgrown my 600 yet!

Carlos in Attendance
The 2016 Western Meet
by Aaron Dodsworth
My wife April and I look forward to the Western Meet every year, and it is no secret that we will drive long distances to attend. We
had just purchased a 1971 Monte Carlo from another club member only a month before the meet and proceeded to take it on the 2,000 mile round trip
from British Columbia. The trip was certainly met with a few challenges as this car had not had many miles put on
it in recent years, but it was nothing we could not overcome. We had a
blast on our first road trip with this Monte. April and I travelled with members Matt and Christine Hilla for a couple days of the
Overall there were 14 members from California, Nevada, Oregon, Washington, British Columbia and Alberta with a good variety of stock, modified, restored and unrestored Monte Carlos.
Matt, Christine, April and I arrived at the hotel on Thursday evening and the party was already in full swing.
A night of pizza, friends, Montes and a few beverages is what we all
looked forward to. It was great to see old friends again and meet some new ones.
A cruise through Nevada County was organized by member Doug Scofield. We cruised through some nice windy back roads and made several stops along the way to chat, look at the scenery and take some photos. One of our stops was at Empire Mine State Historic Park where we had a fantastic lunch prepared by Doug. The weather could not have been more perfect and we had a great day of cruising. We really appreciated Doug for organizing the cruise and lunch.
When we arrived back at the hotel, a few of us spent the afternoon washing our cars and doing some detailing. I had some hood alignment issues so a large group of us worked on that for a while, which proved to be entertaining. If you have ever tried to line up one of these hoods, you know it is not as easy to do as it appears to be.
The evening was spent in the parking lot with lots of laughs and
conversation, while more members arrived to join the meet.
We were up early Saturday morning to get an area in the Nevada County Fairgrounds for our group of cars as part of the Cruisin' the Pines car show. This event had a lot to see with 700 cars on display, a car corral and many vendors on hand. As usual there was a fair amount of awe from spectators when they saw how many first generation Monte Carlos were there as a group. One of the members of the Roamin' Angels car club that organizes the event owns a silver 1972 Monte Carlo which was on display also.
We drove back to the Nevada County Fairgrounds for the Cruisin' the Pines awards ceremony. The 2016 Indy 500 winner Alexander Rossi
who grew up in the Grass Valley area was there with the Borg Warner trophy to make a speech and sign autographs.
As we were enjoying the car show I was
asked by a car show offical to be in the parade of cars during the awards ceremony.
I accepted the club participation award on the club's behalf and also received the Longest Distance award.
In the afternoon we had our club banquet at Smiley Guys Smokehouse. We handed out a number
of door prizes and the 12 categories of FGMCC awards to the deserving recipients. I certainly was not excited to get the hard luck award, but I guess it was my turn this time.
The Pines
Award Winners
Award Winners
On Monday morning it was time to say goodbye to
all the great people of this club, and drive the 900 mile journey back home
to Canada. The trip back gave April and I time to reflect back on a great meet and
laugh about the fun moments that occurred over the past few days. Thanks to all who
came to make this a successful meet and we look forward to seeing you all again!

As parents we normally have many feelings and emotional reactions related to our children. Of course we love them, and are happy for them, and sometimes are driven crazy by them, but one of the things research has shown is that we often do a poor job of communicating these feelings to our children, especially how proud they make us.
From a parent�s perspective this might seem an unfair criticism. It�s easy to believe that, of course, you are proud of your children and so, of course, they know how you feel. But the reality is that more often what a child will absorb are those times when you say something critical. When your child knows he or she has done something wrong, or has fallen short of your expectations, this tends to make the strongest impression. And this is especially true if you aren�t effectively communicating the pride you feel for your son or daughter.
One key to making such communication work is to avoid offering praise for things that really aren�t challenging and really aren�t much of an accomplishment. Such praise ends up devaluing all of your praise, turning it into background noise that means little and that your kids will ignore.
To communicate your feelings of pride more effectively, focus on the process rather than simply the outcome. A parent offering praise to a child who is working hard and putting in extra effort is usually heard and appreciated. This type of praise highlights their trying and initiative, rather than just focusing only on the results. When children are praised for putting in extra effort, it becomes a reward that reinforces the work they�re doing and makes it likely they will continue to try hard in the future.
You want to find a balance between offering too little or too much praise. As a parent you need to recognize when a child is pushing himself or herself to attempt something new or to persevere when something gets a little harder. This is when a compliment will be heard and will let your child know you�re truly proud of their efforts.
Children don�t automatically know how proud their parents are of them. For children to know about that pride, and to benefit from it, that pride needs to be communicated effectively.

text: nickbuol 2 Report post Posted April 30, 2018 Trying to hook things up today, but my new computer build only has USB 3.0 and 3.1 ports on it. Started digging and saw reference to USB 2.0 ports being needed, but that information was from a couple of years ago. Is that still the case that USB 2.0 ports are required? If so I guess I will need to order some USB connectors (the motherboard has headers for USB 2.0), but at some point USB 3.0 or higher will be the only option, so I am hoping that it is actually supported.
