I'm making my tmaxx a twin 3.3. I have already custom made an extended chassis, 2 3/8" longer. Have engines mounted, plans to use 2 jato fuel tanks but that will depend on what exhaust I use. I need suggestions on what headers other people have used I want the exhaust to go down the side of the chassis that's all that's holding me up is the exhaust.
man that thing is gonna go through nitro fuel like crazy even if u tune to lean side... question when tuning a dual engine r/c car/truck do you guys make adjustments identically at the same time on both carbs? I am assuming all needles need to be set precisely equally when first installing it/setting it to a starting point. Sounds over kill for two 3.3, but i know for a fact it will be cool to do and it will have lots of power and you can mod it to to be wider, higher, and you can run massive 7 inch tires. sounds like it will be a beast!!
What if u get dual 2.5 traxxas engines??
Unfortunately I can't post pics. I'll see if I can get someone to.
when I did my twin engine 3.3 I use revo for the 2nd exhaust and leave the other one as it is.

I don't have any pics of mine anymore but, what I did, I mounted one tank by the receiver box (stock tank) and the 2nd one right behind the steering servo (OFNA tank), right above the steering servo, I mounted my receiver box
I wanted to do cemetrical look too with both exhaust side by side but being the engine is off a little more to one side the tuned pipe hit the body so, I went with revo tuned pipe run it thru the back side.

I'm not worried about reciever and battery right now. Wish you had pics. Which headers did you use? Revo?
So just normal revo exhaust. Hmmm. I'll have to try and fit that. Just happens I have a revo here also
yours actually extend longer than mine if I recall so, you have all the room you need
you've done a great job on fabricating that chassis
Ya I made it pretty long. Haha. All I have left to do is figure out exhaust and mount tanks and polish chassis.
How about 2 of these pipe sets for the Losi 10T 3.4 engine?
If your pockets are deep give Robin at ERCM a call, his pipes aren't cheep but they are hand built beauty's.

Look out for the tree/crunch!
LiPo? Naw NITRO!!
Ercm pipes are in the future. I wanna get this running first.
Snook Man has done a twin build and would have some good help (search his posts for twin tmaxx)... Things like linkages, shafts, etc...
Balance and placement is key, locate the center of the vehicle and place everything in it's wanted hoe, feel if the left, right, front rear is overly heavy.
Just find a fl tank that fits this application and where it will find a home around your electronics and linkages...
Are you planng to bash, try to make some wild jumper? Drag racer? or keep it on the MT sideof things... All has to do with your setup..... Don't want too much weight in the front if you ware wanting control in the turns as you will get a lot of push in the trns, But if you want to be a puller you want it all up there and then some...
Looking good man.
WIldman also knows what he is talking about ....
All Lives Matter
United We Stand, Divided We Fall
I have a mip rear drive shaft. I have the linkage all hooked up already. I'm just going to bash it. All I have is to do is mount the exhaust and tanks. I'm kinda leaning towards keeping the exhaust at the rear now just so I can mount the tanks in the sides of the transmission
I wonder if the diffs will handle that setup? Looking good tho. It will be very interesting to drive...i could imagine
Slayer Pro
Monster Pirate
Ya. I'm predicting the trans gears, drive shafts, diffs aren't gonna last too long. May upgrade over winter to all steel gears.
I'm looking forwad to seeing how it all holds up, maybe use battery placement to halp with the offset of the engine placement?
Hey, it's a hobby, and what you are doing looks like a lot of fun...
All Lives Matter
United We Stand, Divided We Fall
It's been actually easier than I thought except for figuring out exhaust. I'm all good now. I'm home free. I decided to get two brand new engines.
Nice build. I can't wait 2 see some videos.
Jato 3.3, Revo .28 JL Max, Nitro Stampede 3.3
Vids will come in summer. Should be fun.
Ya I guess I could. Haha
Very nice. So you never ran it?
Love the sound of twins. Where did you get those wheels?
Well I just have to make some muffler mounts and give the chassis a mirror polish and I'm done the hard part. Now to upgrade the rest. Diffs, tranny, etc
All done the mock up. Everything fits good. Now to disassemble and polish the chassis and skid plate
Hey that's an awesome looking build. I could never attempt something that complex myself. My engineering skills aren't that great. If it isn't bolt together I have a problem with it. I was wondering how you got such a mirror shine out of that skid? I want to strip and polish a Revo chassis this winter to use as a basis for a big block build but I'm worried about it looking bad after I take the anodizing off. If I could get a shine half as good as you have there I think it would look terrific.
First off it's more work than expected. First I sanded it with a palm sander with 220 grit to get scratches out. Then sand with 400, 600, 1000, 2000 grit sandpaper. Then I have some buffing wheels on a bench grinder with some polishing sticks. That skit plate took me close to 2 hrs.
did you make another chassis out of a mirror, lol. great job polishing it

The slaying of Sheikh Mohammad Said Ramadan al-Buti removes one of the few remaining pillars of support for Assad among the majority Sunni sect that has risen up against him.
It also marks a new low in the Syrian civil war: While suicide bombings blamed on Islamic extremists fighting with the rebels have become common, Thursday's attack was the first time a suicide bomber detonated his explosives inside a mosque.
A prolific writer whose sermons were regularly broadcast on TV, the 84-year-old al-Buti was killed while giving a religious lesson to students at the Eman Mosque in the central Mazraa district of Damascus.
The most senior religious figure to be killed in Syria's civil war, his assassination was a major blow to Syria's embattled leader, who is fighting mainly Sunni rebels seeking his ouster. Al-Buti has been a vocal supporter of the regime since the early days of Assad's father and predecessor, the late President Hafez Assad, providing Sunni cover and legitimacy to their rule. Sunnis are the majority sect in Syria while Assad is from the minority Alawite sect -- an offshoot of Shiite Islam.
"The blood of Sheik al-Buti will be a fire that ignites all the world," said Grand Mufti Ahmad Badreddine Hassoun, the country's top state-appointed Sunni Muslim cleric and an Assad loyalist.
Syrian TV showed footage of wounded people and bodies with severed limbs on the mosque's blood-stained floor, and later, corpses covered in white body bags lined up in rows. Sirens wailed through the capital as ambulances rushed to the scene of the explosion, which was sealed off by the military.
Among those killed was al-Buti's grandson, the TV said.
The bombing was among the most serious security breaches in the capital. An attack in July that targeted a high-level government crisis meeting killed four top regime officials, including Assad's brother-in-law and the defense minister.
Last month, a car bomb that struck in the same area, which houses the headquarters of Syria's ruling Baath party, killed at least 53 people and wounded more than 200 others in one of the deadliest Damascus bombings of the civil war.
A small, frail man, al-Buti was well known in the Arab world as a religious scholar and longtime imam at the eighth-century Omayyad Mosque, a Damascus landmark. State TV said he has written 60 books and religious publications.
In recent months, Syrian TV has carried al-Buti's sermons from mosques in Damascus live every week. He also has a regular religious TV program.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for Thursday's attack.
Among the opposition, there was a mixture of suspicion and shock that an elderly religious figure such as al-Bouti would be targeted by a suicide bomber inside a mosque.
"I don't know of a single opposition group that could do something like this," said Walid al-Bunni, a spokesman for the Syrian National Coalition opposition group, speaking on Al-Arabiya TV.
Syrian TV began its evening newscast with an announcement from the religious endowments minister, Mohammad Abdelsattar al-Sayyed, declaring al-Buti's "martyrdom" as his voice choked up. It then showed parts of al-Buti's sermon from last Friday, in which he praised the military for battling the "mercenaries sent by America and the West" and said Syria was being subjected to a "universal conspiracy."
Assad's regime refers to the rebels fighting against it as "terrorists" and "mercenaries" who are backed by foreign powers trying to destabilize the country. The war, which the U.N. says has killed more than 70,000 people, has become increasingly chaotic as rebels press closer to Assad's seat of power in Damascus after seizing large swaths of territory in the northern and eastern parts of the country.
On Thursday, rebels captured a village and other territory on the edge of the Golan Heights as fighting closed in on the strategic plateau that Israel captured from Syria in 1967 and later annexed, activists and officials said.
The battles near the town of Quneitra in southwest Syria sent many residents fleeing, including dozens who crossed into neighboring Lebanon. The fighting in the sensitive area began Wednesday near the cease-fire line between Syrian and Israeli troops.
One of the worst-case scenarios for Syria's civil war is that it could draw in neighboring countries such as Israel or Lebanon.
There have already been clashes with Turkey, Syria's neighbor to the north. And Israel recently bombed targets inside Syria said to include a weapons convoy headed for Hezbollah in Lebanon, a key ally of the Damascus regime and an arch-foe of the Jewish state.
If the rebels take over the Quneitra region, it will bring radical Islamic militants to a front line with Israeli troops. The rebels are composed of dozens of groups, including the powerful al-Qaida-linked Jabhat al-Nusra, which the Obama administration labels a terrorist organization.
Israel has said its policy is not to get involved in the Syrian civil war, but it has retaliated for sporadic Syrian fire that spilled over into Israeli communities on the Golan Heights.
The Golan front has been mostly quiet since 1974, a year after Syria and Israel fought a war.
The Britain-based activist group Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said rebels seized control of parts of villages a few miles from the cease-fire line with Israel after fierce fighting with regime forces.

SEATTLE (AP) — New Washington coach Chris Petersen has suspended quarterback Cyler Miles and wide receiver Damore'ea Stringfellow indefinitely for violation of team rules.
Petersen announced the suspensions on Thursday. The school said Petersen would have no further comment on the matter and did not specify what caused the violation.
Myles is the presumptive starting quarterback for the Huskies heading into next season. He was the backup to Keith Price during the 2013 season and started one game late in the season at Oregon State. Stringfellow was also expected to be a starter going into next season after coming on late in the season. Stringfellow had eight catches for 147 yards and a touchdown at UCLA.

Is There Really Support for Breastfeeding Mothers? A Case Study of Ghanaian Breastfeeding Working Mothers
This study was to find out whether the presence or the absence of social support for breastfeeding working mothers who return to work after maternity leave does have any significant effect on their level of satisfaction and also their commitment to their jobs. Three categories of social support were looked at: spousal and family members support, colleagues support at the workplace and support from care givers (house helps). A self administered questionnaire was given to 300 breastfeeding working mothers in Accra, Ghana. This group of mothers had their age range from 24-41 years with the mean age of 37.2 years and standard deviation of 8.8. The hypotheses were tested using Chi Square. The findings of the study revealed that breastfeeding working mothers who had support from their spouse and other family members appeared to be satisfied and committed to their jobs. Those who had support from other colleagues at the workplace reported to be satisfied with their jobs but not committed to their jobs. However, the group of mothers who were getting their child care support from care givers (house helps) appeared less committed to their jobs.

I bet Mike Murphy didn't realize how much more work he was going to have once Gregory Campbell was traded to the Bruins.
For the third time in 10 days, the NHL Senior Vice President of Hockey Operations will have to rule on a hit made in a game involving the Bruins, who this time were on the receiving end.
Murphy, who previously had to rule on the hits by Brad Marchand and Zdeno Chara, makes all disciplinary decisions involving games featuring the Bruins because, as everyone knows, usual disciplinarian Colin Campbell is Gregory Campbell's father.
According to a Tweet from ESPN hockey writer Pierre Lebrun, Nashville's Patric Hornqvist has a phone hearing with the league because of this elbow to the head of Bruins forward Tyler Seguin last night:
There's no doubt Hornqvist deserves a suspension, especially in light of the bans handed to Marchand and San Jose's Dany Heatley this week.
Now this has nothing to do with the specific hit or the punishment — which should be at least two games — but is anyone else worried about Seguin's safety going forward if he doesn't learn to be a little more aware of his surroundings? If Hornqvist just went at Seguin clean without an elbow, Seguin would've been crushed. Although it might've been a late hit for interference, it would've made him part of the glass because Seguin was watching his pass instead of realizing he was in a vulnerable position.
Maybe it's just because Seguin's inexperienced with actually battling along the walls, but Seguin needs to not be a spectator there. He has to realize he's near the boards, he just had the puck, there might be a price to be paid.
Again, it was dirty elbow, the league should suspend Hornqvist and Seguin was lucky to just suffer a cut ear and nothing more. Going forward, however, Seguin might not be as lucky so he would be smart to better brace himself and avoid putting himself in a vulnerable position.

As students across the county say goodbye to school for the summer, they are saying hello to public libraries.
As students across the county say goodbye to school for the summer, they are saying hello to public libraries.
Loree Kelly, Youth Services coordinator for the Henderson County Public Library, said it's a busy time of year as they roll out their biggest program — summer reading.
"When the kids are out of school, they come to the public library and we love having them all come in," Kelly said. "We want the library to be a gathering place for children and families in our community, and we want them to know everything that's available at their public library."
For children up to age 11, the reading program allows them to track each 15 minutes of reading they have done or time they have been read to. For each increment, they can cross off, color in or sticker a circle on their summer reading log, which is a maze leading to an end goal of 375 minutes.
Once they get to the halfway point, they are eligible for a sticker or pencil prize, and if they make it to the end, they can pick up a free paperback book.
Participants in the Teen Summer Reading Program (youths in sixth through 12th grades) must read six age-appropriate books and track how long it took to read for a free book, but they will also be entered to win in the grand prize drawings.
For each reading log submitted, teens get a chance to win this year's teen grand prize — a Kindle Fire HDX. There are also two $23 gift cards for Fountainhead Bookstore and two $25 gift certificates for EPIC Theaters.
All children's and teen reading logs are due back to the library by Aug. 4 to be entered in the drawings.
"With the kids, too, if we've got a fourth-grader and a 3-year-old joining the program, if the fourth-grader reads to the 3-year-old, that counts for the 3-year-old and the fourth-grader, so older brothers and sisters can read to the younger brothers and sisters and it counts for them too," Kelly said.
This summer also sparks the start of the Adult Summer Reading Program. Adults can fill out a log for reading books, e-books, newspapers, magazines, listening to audio books and reading to children. For every three items read, adults can turn in their log and be entered to win an iPad Mini, movie tickets or restaurant gift certificates. Adult reading logs must be turned in by July 31 to be eligible for the drawing.
Throughout the summer, the library also hosts workshops, classes and activities ranging from teen filmmaking workshops and musical performances to a teddy bear sleepover for kids at the library.
For more information on the library and its programs, visit www.henderson.lib.nc.us or call 697-4725.

Plus, SuSE, once they finish their english translations, are usually quite good at documentation, in some cases better than redhat, etc.
True enough. No one "deserves" to survive, but there have been plenty of companies in the past couple of years that "deserved" a quick and painless death...No one 'deserves' to survive. It's capitalism, sell your product, make money, or go bankrupt.
While SuSE does have some good things going for it, whether or not it "deserves" to survive is a matter of natural selection in the marketplace. It might be the best damned Linux distro ever -- but if people don't buy it, it will go the way of other "deserving" but unsuccessful products.
Perhaps SuSE can persevere by gaining a rabid following that doggedly and vehemently defends "their" distribution in fora like Slashdot... zealotry can be a potent force for survival.
Me? I'm a distro agnostic; I've bought SuSE, and Red Hat, and Mandrake, and I've downloaded Debian, Slackware, and Mandrake (yes, again) for various projects. And that may be part of SuSE's problem: all distros have their good and bad points, but there isn't much in the way of overwhelming distinction.
For my stuff, I prefer Debian, Slackware, and Mandrake, depending on circumstances. Your mileage may vary -- and SuSE needs to get better mileage if it wants to be here in five years.
While SuSE does have some good things going for it, whether or not it "deserves" to survive is a matter of natural selection in the marketplace.

Supreme Judicial Court (February 14, 2008)
To prove a "knowing" violation of G.L. c. 6, § 178H(a), the Commonwealth must prove that a homeless offender knew the registration information provided was false. Moreover, the Sex Offender Registry Board (SORB) registration form is ambiguous, and it needs to be amended to allow for offenders to clearly identify themselves as homeless.
The defendant, who is homeless, was found guilty of failure to register as a sex offender in violation of G.L. c. 6, § 178H(a). On appeal, the defendant argued that there was insufficient evidence to support the conviction. The SJC heard the appeal on its own initiative and reversed the defendant's conviction.
The defendant, a level 3 sex offender, registered listing the address of the Pine Street Inn as his "permanent address." The Inn has a daily lottery for its beds. The defendant stayed at the Inn sporadically during the 90-day registration period. During this time, the SORB sent mail to the defendant at the Pine Street Inn and it was returned as undeliverable. The SORB concluded that the defendant was in violation and contacted the police, and an arrest warrant was issued.
The SJC concluded that the evidence was insufficient to prove that the defendant "knowingly" provided false information, or that he "knowingly" failed to provide notice of a change in address. While the Commonwealth does not have to prove intent to deceive, it must prove that the defendant knew the information was false. Given that the defendant is homeless, and the Inn provides beds daily using a lottery system, the defendant may have
attempted to stay at the Inn, but had no control over whether he could. There was no evidence that the defendant "knew" he was providing false information, or that he was changing his address.
The SJC found that the SORB's registration form is ambiguous, as it does not designate a place to identify homeless status and list a shelter as a residence. The SJC urged the SORB to amend its form as soon as practicable.

Antonio Cromartie, CB -- Cromartie is appearing in his first Pro Bowl since 2007, a year he was a league leader in interceptions and made the All-Pro team. Rex Ryan's defense is reliant on great play from it's cornerbacks, and due to Darrelle Revis being sidelined most of the season with a knee injury Antonio Cromarite stepped into the spotlight and played well. While there were a few more ups and downs than Jets fans have come to expect from Revis's play, Cromartie played commendably notching 35 tackles, 13 passes defensed, three interceptions and a memorable pick six in the season opening Buffalo game.
LaRon Landry, SS -- In what might be Landry's first and only year with the Jets, he filled a physical and intimidating playmaker role that we've not seen in the Jets safety corps in a while. While the loss of Revis was a shame for the overall unit, it was his loss that allowed players like Cro and Landry to shine more than had Darrelle played all season. Landry accumulated 99 tackles, 8 passes defensed, 2 interceptions, 4 forced fumbles, and a pick-six that came against the September Dolphins game during the course of the season ... not to mention a number of punishing hits that Landry laid on opponents. Landry was a welcome change in a secondary that has lacked a dominant presence like he brought to the middle of the defense in a long time, and it was clear that fans appreciated his contributions.

GIO Usage Guidelines/The Newcomer Cheat Sheet/Terms and Conditions
That's cool, thanks for the info. Too bad they don't have one for 360. :)
My apologies! They've revamped the site so didn't notice the PS3 exclusivity. It might still be worth checking as I'm pretty sure some also play on 360, but yeah looks like mainly Sony. I'll also let you know if I find out anything in that regard.
No worries, good info to have. They have a great site, and I will check it out in more detail, maybe there are some hidden 360 players. Thanks again!
Sounds good. I did post a question there so we'll see what they say. I hope they do still have some 360 players as those I've played with over the years (granted on PS3, though I have a 360) are pretty fun to game with. And the current head, Patty, is terrific (as is her hubby Jason).

Dvd Flick Kurenai MKV
Hi. I just converted Kurenai to dvd format using DVD flick but it looks like it wasn't hardsubed. I don't know if this has anything to do with it being MKV format.
Could anyone tell me what I did wrong and what I need to do to get subs for it?
I DLed [BSS]_kurenai_-_01v2_[704x400_h264][BCBC65A3], after I converted it to watch on DVD I was able to view the intro theme song subs. The ep played fine, only no subs.
(I never had any problems with AVI but I'm assuming there was a subtitle file somewhere I was suppose to dl but I didn't see anything listed in the torrent.)

I don't think DVD-flick is actually capable of detecting softsubs. At least, it's failed to do so in my experience.
Found a link to this guide in tech support, although it's not as simple as DVD Flick.

If there is a sub file I can insert it into DVD flick.
On their features page this is listed,
Supported subtitle formats
MicroDVD SubRip (SRT)
Substation Alpha (SSA\ASS) * SubView
* Only text is read, no markup or colors

Assuming you're using the Kurenai subs I think you are, I believe they contain an Advanced Substation Alpha (.ass) subtitle track, so if you extract that you should be able to use it.
Note, however, that you'll end up with a single colour, unstyled track. Some subbers use styles and colours to differentiate speakers/background noise/etc., I can't remember if Kurenai's subs did this or not.
I think the guide I posted earlier hard codes the subs into the video stream, so it keeps all the styling at such at the cost of the fact you won't be able to turn subs off.

I extracted the ASS file but dvd flick wouldn't take it. I'm going to try following the instructions in http://forums.animesuki.com/showthread.php?t=26308.

I found a pretty easy way to get my MKV files to the open source dvd flick.
There is a program called Any Video Converter that will convert MKV to MPEG-II.
You can then put the MPEG-II into DVD Flick which will allow you to watch your video file on a regular dvd player with or without menus. If you do use DVD flick there is an advanced option in the video section that allows you to stream the MPEG-II which makes conversion process much quicker.
I downloaded both of these programs for free.
Hope this helps!

While the Waynesville High School Campus Completion project will open up much needed space for the district, administrators believe it will also enhance students' overall high school experience.
The $20 million project will include a 49,500 square foot Ninth Grade Center (located next to the high school), and several additions and renovations to the existing high school building.
"We're building this project with the anticipation of future growth," said Waynesville R-VI School District assistant superintendent for operational services Dr. Jon Oetinger. "We've seen a lot of growth. Our students were crowded and we needed more space."
When the current high school building began construction in 2002, the average enrollment for the school was 1,200 students.
Today, more than 1,600 students crowd the hallways of Waynesville High School, a building created for a capacity of 1,500 students.
The Ninth Grade Center will include 24 classrooms, including four science labs and a 150-person lecture hall. Six of the classrooms will be English and social studies classrooms connected with partition walls, which make it easy combine classes and open up spaces when needed.
District administrators said that while the building will serve as an area designated for freshmen, but will be used by students in other grades as well.
"It will be a huge asset for the district to have one primary location for freshmen with a full staff who are focused just to meet freshmen needs," Superintendent Dr. Judene Blackburn said.
The project also includes a renovation to the cafeteria, adding 5,400 square feet to the cafeteria and a kitchen-expansion, and a library expansion with two new computer labs.
"We will be moving from four lunch shifts to three, which will help the schedule a lot and will make for less-crowded lunches," Blackburn said.
Besides the obvious advantages of the added classroom spaces, the completion project will also include facilities that administrators feel will enhance existing programs within the school.
The physical education program at the high school will add several different classes, with the completion of a Crossfit facility and multi-purpose fitness room which will be used for aerobics, yoga, and other fitness classes.
"Our additional fitness room and Crossfit room will really allow for the P.E. program to expand, which is important for high school students," Blackburn said. "Having the exposure of a variety activities will help prepare students for better health throughout their lives."
The project will also include an Early Childhood Lab in the Ninth Grade Center. The lab will be an area designated for the program in which high schoolers teach preschool age children.
Before the lab, the program was held in a room in the middle of the high school, which made it difficult for parents to drop off their young children.
"This way children and parents don't have to deal with the madness of passing periods," Oetinger said. "The new lab will have its own outside entrance that's easily secured."
The band and ceramics rooms will also be expanded.
"I'm excited about the fact that several programs will be able to move to larger classrooms because of the amount of space the Ninth Grade Center is opening up."
Blackburn said that this project is a key component to the overall vision of the district to have top facilities.
"We're always competing with ourselves to do better," Blackburn said. "I feel like we benchmark to others more than we compete."
The completion of this expansion project, set for September, will allow the high school to accommodate 2,200 students. While the district has maintained a a growth rate of 1.5 per per year, this project will allow the district to have room for growth for twenty years in the high school.

CONWAY, Ark. (AP) Mikh McKinney scored 14 points and Sacramento State rallied from a 13-point second-half deficit to defeat Central Arkansas 71-68 Saturday night.
Central Arkansas (1-3) led 45-35 at halftime and increased the lead to 55-42 on a tip-in by Jordan Harks with 15:56 remaining. But Sacramento State (4-1) outscored the Bears 21-5 over the next 10 minutes to take its first lead of the game on a three-point play by McKinney with 5:15 left.
McKinney added two free throws with 17 seconds left that gave the Hornets their final three-point margin as Central Arkansas misfired three times from 3-point range in the final 12 seconds.
Joe Eberhard added 13 points, 10 rebounds and four steals for Sacramento State.
The Bears got 21 points from Jarvis Garner, a career-high 18 from Harks and 10 from LaQuentin Miles.

Actor Arjun Rampal says his LAP nightclub in Delhi's Hotel Samrat is losing money following restrictions on their functioning in the wake of the gang-rape of a 23-year-old woman in the capital and feels "shutting down nightclubs early is not a solution to the growing crimes against women."
Asked if he is suffering any loss due to the current scenario in Delhi, Arjun said on Saturday: "Yes, of course, we are, because what happened is that the minute something like this happens, the first place that people close down early are nightclubs."
"I don't agree with it... many feel that people will get drunk and come out, but those are not the rapists. Rapists are the people who are sick in their head. It is wrong to just clamp down," he added.
After the Dec 16 incident, the authorities had asked all discotheques and nightclubs to close by 1 a.m. LAP was one of the very few permitted to remain open till 3.
The actor says people need to be protected with more manpower, and "shutting down nightclubs early is not a solution to the growing crimes against women". However, he is all for adequate security for his club's patrons.
"Despite closing everything early, you couldn't stop a rape that happened on December 31. You need more protection, more people. If you feel uncomfortable from letting places open after a certain hour, then make a special licence. If I buy that licence, you give me some police officers who can protect my place and the people who come there. As a club owner, I only want my people who come there to be safe," he added.
Arjun opened LAP in 2009 and says he has been able to employ people who were "gundas" (ruffians) earlier.
"We also employ people... when you shut clubs and institutions down, those people will lose their jobs. What are they going to do... they are going to commit more crimes because they are not graduates. My bouncers and my security people were gundas who have got a decent job now. I am rehabilitating them. Government needs to look at all those things," said the 40-year-old.

Mercer Finishes Paradise Jam Without a Win | News
ST. THOMAS, USVI (School Release)- The Mercer men's basketball team, playing its third game in four days, led ACC member Wake Forest for nearly 39 minutes of game time before succumbing to the Demon Deacons' comeback effort in a 74-71 loss at the Paradise Jam on Monday. Sophomore Jibri Bryan led the Bears with 14 points.
The result dropped Mercer to 2-3 on the season while Wake Forest pulled even at 2-2.
A spirited Mercer effort began right at the start, as the Bears put together a quick 4-0 lead in the opening minute of play. From there, Mercer would lead by as many as 11 and held at least a one point edge until Wake Forest earned its first tie of the game at 68-68 with 1:40 left in regulation. The tie score came as a result of a 10-3 Wake Forest run that elapsed 1:32 of game time.
Mercer held strong and got a clutch three pointer from Bryan on the next possession to go back in front with 1:00 to play. Aggressive Mercer defense resulted in a foul and Wake Forest guard C.J. Harris swished two free throws to bring his team within one (71-70) with 42 seconds left.
On the ensuing possession, Travis Smith drove to the bucket for a layup, but a wet-spot caused his foot to slip and he was whistled for a traveling violation. Moments later, Wake Forest freshman Tyler Cavanaugh found junior Travis McKie for a baseline dunk to give the Demon Deacons their first lead of the game (72-71) with 18 seconds to go.
Mercer junior Bud Thomas penetrated nicely the next time down, but his pass was bobbled out of bounds and Wake Forest retained possession. Two free throws on the other end put Wake Forest up three with four seconds remaining.
In the final moments, Mercer inbounded to Gollon, who created spaced and launched an errant three pointer as time expired. Both the Mercer's bench and contingency of fans wanted a foul on the final shot, but no infraction was called.
In the second half alone, Mercer was called for 17 fouls in comparison to six whistles on Wake Forest. The Demon Deacons converted 17 of their 27 free throws while Mercer was 5-of-6 from the free-throw line in the period.
Bryan's 14 points were fueled by perfect four-of-four shooting from three-point range. Gollon and Thomas also broke into double-figure scoring with 12 and 10 points, respectively. Gollon also produced six rebounds, five assists and four steals while Thomas collected three rebounds and notched a pair of assists.
Sophomore T.J. Hallice tied a career-high scoring effort with nine points while also chipping in six points, one assist and a block in the loss.
Nine Mercer players reached the scoring column in the loss as the Bears' bench outscored the opponent's reserves 32-22.
Mercer returns to action hosting Furman at Hawkins Arena on November 25. Game time is scheduled for 7 p.m.

The bulk of social media and Web 2.0 use in Congress and state legislatures has until now largely been composed of personal tweets and posts by legislators and staff, pushing communications out without engaging in true conversations with constituents. Innovation in this area has lagged the private sector.One Texas Senate committee is changing that. Charged by Chairman John Carona to "push the envelope so hard it's no longer stationery," the Business and Commerce Committee is moving out with social media. They began by examining the legislative process and identifying each point where lobbyists and advocates have special access to information or legislators, then looked for technologies that would level the playing field, open the process to the public, or help generate consensus. As a testbed, the committee is currently tackling a tough issue –payday lending – and they'll tell you what they're doing, what's worked and where they think Gov2.0 is going.

It's not often a 6-foot-3, 314-pound man gets a finesse tag attached to his name. Dan Williams isn't just OK with it; he came up with the label.
The Cardinals continue to excel at stopping the run, and a key factor has been the space-clogging and line-moving duo of Williams and Alameda Ta'amu at nose tackle.
Arizona held the Eagles to 3.1 yards per rush last week and are allowing 83.3 yards per game, the fourth-best mark in
"I can be a little bit more finesse at times, running down the line," Williams said. "He's more of a big power guy. When 'Meda comes out (with a good push), it's over for a center."
Players all around them in the front seven have turned in impressive statistical seasons, and some of it can directly be tied to the job those two are doing at the line of scrimmage.
"It's a dynamic pair of big guys," coach Bruce Arians said. "The nice thing right now is we have a big, fresh guy in the middle all the time, and then when we want to play them in there together, it's a load for the center and the guards to move those cats."
Rams running back Zac Stacy has averaged 86.5 yards per game since taking over as the starter in October, and should see the ball plenty on Sunday since starting quarterback Sam Bradford (torn ACL) is out for the year.
Ta'amu said the Cardinals' run-game success has adjusted expectations, even against top tailbacks.
"Maybe the goal was to keep a person under 100 (yards)," he said. "Well, now let's try to keep him under 80, under 70."
It wasn't a surprise to see running back
Floyd, who leads the team in receiving yards with 860 and has averaged 132 in his past three games, tweaked his ankle in the fourth quarter against the Eagles.
Arians believes Floyd will give it a go on Thursday "because he knows if he doesn't practice tomorrow he isn't playing. I'm sure he'll practice hard tomorrow."
Arians did not address Palmer, who is listed with a right elbow injury. He had previously been in the injury report with a right hand problem, but had never done anything but practice full.
Ellington was hurt last Thursday and missed the loss to Philadelphia. Arians said the team will take it slowly with him, but the rookie standout said he feels great and is sitting out as a precaution.
"(It's) being smart," Ellington said. "Whatever the coach and trainers suggest, I'm going to go with. But I'm fine right now. It's a day by day thing. I'll be ready to go on Sunday."
In addition to Palmer, linebacker
For the Rams, center Scott Wells (fibula), cornerback Brandon McGee (foot), tackle Jake Long (concussion) and linebacker Daren Bates (concussion) all sat out. Defensive end Eugene Sims (neck) was limited.
The Rams traded up to draft speedy wide receiver Tavon Austin with the eighth overall pick out of West Virginia, but he didn't have much impact early.
Austin caught six passes for 41 yards against the Cardinals in the season opener and didn't reach 50 yards receiving in any of his first nine games.
He broke out in a big way on Nov. 10, catching three balls for 138 yards and two touchdowns and returning a punt 98 yards for a score in a 38-8 win over the Colts.
"I always knew I had it in me," Austin said. "I just didn't know when."
He followed that up with a 65-yard rushing score the following week against the Bears, showing off his versatility and game-breaking quickness. Austin could be a bigger factor in this game compared to his more limited role against the Cardinals in Week 1.
"He's an every-down player (now), and with he and (wide receiver Chris) Givens out there, they have tremendous speed," Arians said.

UH President Emeritus Fujio Matsuda and First Hawaiian Bank Chairman Walter Dods will co-chair the search advisory committee for the first occupant for the Dan and Maggie Inouye Chair in Democratic Ideals.
UH Interim President David McClain and UH Mānoa Interim Chancellor Denise Konan made the announcement at the November meeting of the University of Hawaiʻi Board of Regents. At the meeting, Regents formally established the Inouye chair position. Earlier this year, Dods led a fundraising effort to endow the chair with McClain and Jeff Watanabe, managing partner of Watanabe, Ing and Komeiji, that has thus far raised $2.3 million.
Other members of the committee named at the Regents' meeting are:
· Donna Tanoue, Vice Chairman, Bank of Hawaii
· Aviam Soifer, Dean of the William S. Richardson School of Law
· Thomas Bingham, Chair of the Department of Music
· Denise Antolini, Associate Professor at the Richardson School
· Eric Yamamoto, Professor at the Richardson School
· Dennis Ogawa, Chair of the American Studies Department
· David Stannard, Professor of American Studies
The chair will be jointly held in the Department of American Studies, College of Arts & Humanities, and the William S. Richardson School of Law; both units are part of the University of Hawaiʻi at Manoa. Chair holders will rotate and be selected from distinguished public figures, who will offer courses and seminars for the benefit of students, faculty, alumni and the community.
The search advisory committee will hold its first meeting in December, and hopes to have a recommendation to Interim Chancellor Konan for her review and forwarding for Interim President McClain's approval early in the new year.

Penn State Football: Buckeyes' Braxton Miller Bruises Lions, 35-23
To Braxton Miller, the Beaver Stadium WhiteOut was just white noise.
And as a result, Ohio State's sophomore quarterback soundly defeated the Nittany Lions.
Miller accounted for 277 yards and three touchdowns as ninth-ranked Ohio State defeated Penn State 35-23 on Saturday night in a match-up of first-year Big Ten Conference coaches Urban Meyer and Bill O'Brien.
Miller rushed 25 times for 134 yards, with a pair of one-yard TD runs, and also completed 7 of 19 passes for 143 yards, with an interception and a touchdown.
Miller's only touchdown pass of the night -- a 72-yard toss to receiver Jake Stoneburner deep into the fourth quarter -- sealed the Buckeyes' win over Penn State and did nothing to dim his Heisman Trophy candidacy.
The scoring play capped a 28-point scoring rampage in the second half, and thoroughly silenced the WhiteOut crowd of 107,818.
"Miller's an excellent player and he's one of the best five players in the country," said O'Brien. "We stopped him some times and obviously some times we didn't."
Penn State gamely fought back in the fourth quarter, scoring twice on touchdown passes from Matt McGloin to a pair of Nittany Lion tight ends. The first touchdown was a two-yard reception by Matt Lehman to cap a 18-play, 80-yard drive, while the second came with just 1:41 to play as McGloin threw a 20-yarder to Kyle Carter to complete a 12-play, 83-yard drive.
It took Penn State's NASCAR offense too long to gear up. Over a six-possession stretch in the second half, Penn State's offense managed just one drive over four plays. Forty percent of Penn State's overall plays came in the final quarter.
Ohio State is now 9-0 overall and 5-0 in the Big Ten, while Penn State falls to 5-3 and 3-1.
Led by Miller and Carlos Hyde, who ran 22 times for 55 yards and a touchdown, the Buckeyes roundly defeated the Nittany Lions on the ground. Overall, Ohio State ran 53 times for 234 yards, while Penn State managed just 36 yards on 28 carries. Zach Zwinak led PSU with 12 carries for 42 yards.
McGloin completed 27 of 45 passes for a career-high 327 yards, with the two scoring tosses and a third-quarter interception that Ohio State linebacker Ryan Shazier returned for a 17-yard touchdown and a 14-7 lead that the Buckeyes never relinquished. McGloin was sacked four times, a season-high.
Linebackers Gerald Hodges (14 tackles) and Michael Mauti (13) paced the Lion defense.
THIRD QUARTER: Ohio State 28, Penn State 10
Big, brash runs by Miller and two passes by Penn State ultimately cost the Nittany Lions 21 points in the third quarter. The thing about those two passes? Neither ended up in the hands of a Penn State receiver.
(INTERCEPTED) PASS No. 1:
Two plays into the third quarter, Shazier sacked McGloin for a nine-yard loss. The very next play, Shaizer intercepted a pass by McGloin and returned it 17 yards for a touchdown. Just like that, 79 seconds into the second half, Ohio State broke a tight-as-it-sounds 7-7 halftime tie to lead 14-7.
"The guy made a great play on that and Matt will learn from that," O'Brien said.
Penn State answered with a field goal from Sam Ficken, from 27 yards out, to pull within 14-10 with 9:50 left in the third quarter. But that wasn't nearly enough. Penn State's inability to close what ended up being a nine-play, 73-yard drive proved to be costly.
On the ensuing drive, Miller was pressured by Lion linebacker Mike Hull, forcing Miller's toss downfield to come up short -- right into the hands of Penn State cornerback Adrian Amos for an interception. Penn State's offense could only muster one yard on three plays, setting up a fourth-and-nine from the Ohio State 43.
O'Brien rolled the dice. Twice. And lost. Twice.
First, O'Brien called for a fake punt, and punter Alex Butterworth's lobbed pass to Derek Day fell incomplete. "I felt like at that time we wanted to get something going," O'Brien said. "We thought we had it but couldn't make it happen."
After the failed fake, while operating on a short field Ohio State went 57 yards in 10 plays to pad its lead with a spectacular one-yard scoring play by Miller. The sophomore quarterback sidestepped a Penn State tackler, took a step forward and then dove into the end zone for the TD. Drew Basil's PAT gave the Buckeyes a 21-10 lead with 3:30 to go in the third quarter.
Ohio State came right back to score on another Miller one-yard run, with that scoring drive covering eight plays and 85 yards in just 2:15. It continued a string of domination by the Buckeye offense. Three of its last four drives covered 197 yards in 30 plays.
In third quarter, Miller had seven carries for 49 yards and completed two passes for 26 yards. On the night, Miller has rushed 21 times for 123 yards, and is 6 of 18 for 71 yards. The Buckeyes have outrushed Penn State, 206-35.
HALFTIME: Penn State 7, Ohio State 7
Hands down, it was quick-scoring finish to what had been a scoreless first half in Beaver Stadium.
First, Hull took the scoreless tie into his own hands -- and the result was a blocked punt that yielded a touchdown and a 7-0 lead for Penn State.
Then, just four plays later, Penn State's Brad Bars was flagged for holding on yet another Ohio State punt on a fourth-and-8 from the Buckeyes' own 27. That hold gave the Buckeyes a first down. And you have to hand it to them, the Buckeyes turned that penalty into the momentum to complete a 75-yard drive that culminated with as one-yard TD run by Hyde. A 33-yard scamper by Miller was the drive's big play.
Hull's hands got all the scoring started, when they blocked the punt of the Buckeyes' Ben Buchanan deep in OSU territory. The ball landed into the end zone. And Michael Yancich, a reserve linebacker just like his teammate Hull, landed on the ball.
Touchdown Penn State. And just like that, 10 punts into the game, Penn State was on the board. Fickens' PAT -- never a certainty, especially on a night when kicks were being blocked -- gave the Nittany Lions a 7-0 led with 6:15 left in the first half.
Four plays earlier, O'Brien had a decision. Twice. And he came up with the same answer both times. As a result, Penn State's offense came up with zero points.
With 7:31 remaining the second quarter, Penn State's offense was faced with a fourth-and-7. O'Brien opted to go for the first down instead of a 37-yard field goal, but right tackle Mike Farrell was called for illegal procedure and a five-yard penalty. O'Brien went for the first down again, this time on fourth-and-12, but McGloin's eight-yard completion to Brandon Moseby-Felder was four yards short.
The drive was set up by another in a series of big plays by the Penn State defense.
In a packed stadium, midway through the second quarter Hodges was making the most noise. The senior had seven tackles six minutes into the second quarter, the most crucial coming on a third-anbd-1 by Ohio State from its own 39. Hodges blitzed on the play, grabbing Miller behind the line of scrimmage for a 10-yard loss. The sack bailed out Mauti, who earlier on the drive was whistled for a 15-yard facemask penalty.
FIRST QUARTER: Penn State 0, Ohio State 0
A combined six punts, 113 yards of offense and two blown long-bomb scoring chances. The first quarter of the much-anticipated match-up wasn't pretty. But it was white. As in a Beaver Stadium scoreboard that was all WhiteOuted -- with zero points.
The crowd of 107,818 was loud, though. Early. And often.
Ohio State went out three-and-out on its first possession, as Jordan Hill and Mauti combined to stuff Miller a yard shy of a first down. Faced with a fourth-and-1 from its own 34, Ohio State lined up to punt. But the WhiteOut crowd was apparently so overwhelming, the Buckeyes called time out.
Ohio State punted, but on its first possession Penn State's offense could do little. On third-and-3 from his own 33, McGloin went deep to Allen Robinson streaking left -- and open -- downfield. But the pass was short and though Robinson made a game attempt, it was incomplete.
Butterworth's 24-yard punt set up Ohio State at its own 43, where the Buckeyes were immediately whistled for a false start. WhiteOut noise. Again.
On the following series, both teams had their chances. Penn State defensive backs Stephen Obeng-Agyapong and Malcolm Willis both nearly had picks off of Miller. Obeng-Agyapong could have easily gone in for the score on his chance. On the drive, Miller's throw to a streaking -- and wide open -- Buckeye receiver Corey Brown was overthrown, costing the Buckeyes a sure TD.
The biggest play of the quarter almost came on a fourth-and-2-inch on the Ohio State 45, when Penn State's offense lined up to go for it. But Penn State coach Bill O'Brien had a literal last-second change of heart, as he hurriedly signaled for a time-out. Cooler heads prevailed, and the Nittany Lions' Butterworth punted 44 yards to the Ohio State 11.
The Buckeyes gained a bit of traction on their ensuing drive, thanks to a personal foul on Amos. But a few plays later, Penn State defensive ends Pete Massaro and Sean Stanley combined to sack Miller and halted Ohio State's drive at its own 45.

BROOKLYN, Mich. (AP) — Rick Hendrick defended his team's hiring approach Friday and said Sprint Cup champion Brad Keselowski should show "more class" after accusing Hendrick Motorsports of stealing information by poaching employees from Ford teams.
"Brad misrepresents the facts and spends a lot of time making insinuations and accusations about other teams when he should be focused on his own program and competing at a high level," Hendrick said in a statement. "I hope he figures that out and begins representing himself and the sport with more class."
Keselowski was at Ford headquarters in Dearborn on Thursday, when he said his Penske Racing team has been reluctant to share information with Roush Fenway Racing on their Ford cars.
"What keeps it from going too far is the fact Hendrick and (Joe Gibbs Racing) have this nasty little habit of going to our teams and outbidding different people and taking those employees and stealing our information," Keselowski said, according to ESPN.com.
Keselowski didn't elaborate when asked about his comments Friday.
"We were just talking about Ford and specifically the relationship between Penske and Roush, and how strong it was," Keselowski said. "I just commented on, there will always be limitations to our relationships company to company because of those transactions."
Joe Gibbs Racing weighed in with a statement of its own.
"We were surprised to read the recent comments and accusations made by Brad Keselowski," JGR said. "Clearly those comments are misguided and irresponsible. Brad's candor is well documented, but he would do well to only speak to subjects on which he is properly informed."
Keselowski was a developmental driver for Hendrick Motorsports before Hendrick granted him an early release to drive for Roger Penske. Keselowski has won a Nationwide title and the Cup championship since moving to Penske Racing.
But Hendrick said the outspoken champion is "misinformed" on his latest claim.
"The truth is that we hired one tire changer, who was a backup for Penske and whose contract was up," Hendrick said. "We also brought over one mechanic from their Nationwide program and, when the Penske engine shop was closing, added a few of those people. What Brad left out was that his organization also hired one of our tire changers."
This is just one of many verbal dust-ups between Keselowski and the Hendrick organization, which Keselowski often believes gets away with more than others. He also has been critical of Hendrick's research and development cycle.
He went on a rant after the Texas race in April when NASCAR confiscated parts from the Penske cars during a pre-race inspection, and while his comments were vague and open to interpretation, many believed he was alleging Hendrick cars get more leeway than Penske teams. Then came a rumor that it was Hendrick employees who snitched on Penske for having suspect rear suspensions. Hendrick's drivers have adamantly denied anyone from their organization tattled to NASCAR.
"Roger Penske and I are great friends and have raced together for years," Hendrick said Friday. "We've always competed with the utmost respect, and I have immense admiration for his organization. You won't find anyone at Hendrick Motorsports who feels differently."

Pitcher Masahiro Tanaka made history on Friday when he led Tohoku Rakuten Golden Eagles to a 6-2 win over Orix Buffaloes for his 21st consecutive win of the season.
The 24-year-old pitched a complete game as his terrific form continued ahead of an expected move to the Major Leagues once the season in concluded.
Tanaka's 21st win of the season, which contained a solitary earned run and eight strikeouts, was his 25th consecutive in all and smashed the previous record of 20 in Nippon Professional Baseball.
Even more impressive, however, was that this latest win surpassed the 76-year-old MLB record set by New York Giants great Carl Hubbell.
It is the perfect warm-up to the expected move to MLB and will mean Tanaka is probably the most highly anticipated Japanese export since the Texas Rangers acquired the services of Yu Darvish from the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters in 2012.
Tanaka's numbers this season are even more astonishing because, according to Japan Realtime, Nippon Baseball introduced a new ball for this season that is more lively and has seen average scores in matched go up 20 per cent on last year.

You mentioned in a chat Premium that you keep hearing rumors about Sarasota (Fla.) High two-way star Casey Kelly to the Reds at No. 7, but that he's more of a mid-to-late first-round talent. Do you think Cincinnati might cut a predraft below-slot deal with him after spending $2 million on Juan Duran earlier this spring? That would be a tough blow to Reds fans, especially if they passed on someone like Missouri righthander Aaron Crow.
Greg Kathman
First, a history lesson:
In March 1999, the Reds signed the first player to go through the posting process with a Japanese club, Dominican outfielder Alejandro Diaz. Between his bonus ($1.175 million) and bidding for his rights, Cincinnati spent roughly $2 million. It turned out that Diaz was three years older than believed, and he never advanced past Double-A.
Worse yet, the Diaz signing took a toll on the Reds' budget for signing amateur players. They signed their 1999 first-rounder, Ty Howington, to a 2000 contract so his $1.75 million bonus wouldn't be paid until the following a year. As a result, when Cincinnati had three of the first 46 picks in the 2000 draft, it spent them on two players who agreed to take no upfront bonus (David Espinosa, Dane Sardinha) and another who signed a 2001 contract (Dustin Moseley). Pushing Moseley's $930,000 bonus forward a year led to the Reds' decision to use their 2001 first-rounder on Jeremy Sowerswho had no intention of foregoing a scholarship to Vanderbilt. Cincinnati even went cheap with the sandwich pick it got in 2002 for not signing Sowers, as it played hardball with college senior Mark Schramek.
So Greg may be fearing a repeat of what happened with Diaz. The good news is that there's been no talk of the Reds trying to go cheap with the No. 7 pick, even though that slot last year was worth $2.07 million, roughly what Duran received.
Kelly's father Pat manages the Reds' Rookie-level Gulf Coast League affiliate, which is one reason Chris has been tied closely to Cincinnati. But other teams think the Reds legitimately are intrigued by Kelly's talent, and he has the type of athletic upside that scouting director Chris Buckley loves. As mentioned in the first Ask BA question above, Kelly's scholarship to play quarterback at Tennessee gives him extra leverage, and he wouldn't be a discount signing.
That said, Kelly would be a bit of a reach at No. 7. If Crow were to fall to the Reds, and there's a strong possibility that may happen, he'd be a perfect fit for them. As one of the top-tier college pitchers, he'd likely command a major league contract, but it still would be tough for Cincinnati to pass him up.

Here we are at the start of the year, just resting up before we launch ourselves, aboard a giant sledge full of good intentions, into 2013.
The interlude between Christmas and New Year's Eve is a no-man's land. We're done with the present year, and can hardly be bothered to glance at our calendar to see what. if anything, is scheduled for the few days that remain to it.
Still, it's a good thing that we have the tail-end of 2012 in which to finish up the odds and ends that we somehow never got around to yet.
I don't advocate making any big, sweeping changes, or starting some big new project now. No, all of that is best left for the coming year. We might want to think about these things a little, but at this point what we need to be concerned about is making sure that we have fully recuperated from the rigors of the Christmas season.
For many people, the word "Christmas" has taken on a baffling connotation. They know that Christmas is intrinsically good, and yet to say "Merry Christmas" is somehow suspect. Why? Do we think that people who do not celebrate Christmas are sad, and shouldn't have to be reminded of the great Christian holiday? Perhaps euphemistically saying "Happy holidays" instead is a safer way to go. People say "holidays" when they mean Christmas.
On Christmas Eve, when I went to the post office, I observed that some people were actually saying "Merry Christmas," but rather sheepishly, as if they might be doing something wrong, or else aggressively, as if to make a statement.
"Yes, gosh darn it! I said 'Christmas,' and I'll say it again, if I feel like it, so watch out!"
Of course, it's fine to say holidays, if that's what you mean. But Christmas is the elephant in the room. For those who celebrate it, Christmas is anxiety producing, exhausting, financially depleting and often inspiring and joyous, reminding us of who we can be at our best.
We need to rest up now.
One thing we might want to attempt during this interlude, after gathering up and disposing of the tissue paper and packing peanuts - don't save them this year - is to finish off the chocolates, nuts, cookies and other foods that will interfere with the diets we will be working on during the first part of January.
Yes, the annual weight-loss diet is always on the list for the New Year, but I have just heard two pieces of information that bear consideration.
First, I watched a TV interview on MSNBC in which Richard Lucibella, publisher of S.W.A.T. magazine, detailed a list of firearms that he requires for everyday self defense. Then I listened to Wayne LaPierre speak on behalf of the NRA about guns and self-defense. This has all been a real eye-opener for me.
It's funny, too, because even though my husband owned guns, it never occurred to me that I needed guns for self protection. In fact, I am afraid of them. I hate firecrackers. I don't even like popping champagne corks, but I can muster up the courage for it if I have to.
Now I learn that a single woman requires a bedside Glock, a shotgun, a rifle, a concealed firearm, a gun in a hip holster...well, it makes you think. You just never know when you might need the ability to maim or kill somebody. It changes your view of the world. After my Christmas world view, it will take some doing to shift my focus to self-defense. It's kind of like living in an Elmore Leonard novel. I love Elmore Leonard novels, but I want to be able to put them down. I like to know the difference between, say, "Get Shorty" and my normal everyday life.
And now here's the second piece of information that will complicate - or maybe simplify - your New Year's resolutions. I have just learned, from an article in the January "Good Housekeeping" magazine (not S.W.A.T.), that human beings have limited reservoirs of will power. This means that if you are in the difficult and restrictive first part of a major diet plan, you will have little or no will power left for your other resolutions. This answers that age-old question: Why is it so hard to be good?
Choices. Should I resolve to arm myself for 2013? Or should I try again to lose weight?
Have a good week.

I've also found that the following preferences can solve many problems with servers, and/or proxies that don't support keep-alive connections.
Note: KM' behavior is also weird (from what I saw with some tests I've done) with "keep-alive" set to true. It seems to limit itself to a small amount of simultaneous connections (around 4, and sometimes only a maximum of 2 per server) whatever the values of "max-connections". I don't know if this is a Gecko bug, an intended feature, or a behavior limited to this particular version of Gecko (as of 0.8.2).
user_pref("network.http.keep-alive", false); user_pref("network.http.proxy.keep-alive", false);
Use them with the preferences above or at least with:
user_pref("network.http.max-connections", 40); /* or more */ user_pref("network.http.max-connections-per-server", 20); /* or more */

Takacs Quartet second violinist to have rotator cuff surgery
Károly Schranz, second violinist of the famed Takacs Quartet (seated at left in photo), is undergoing rotator cuff surgery this month and is not expected to resume performing with the ensemble until September.
The Takacs, which most experts would count among the top five quartets in the world, has been in residence at the University of Colorado at Boulder since 1983.
For the group's concerts in April and May, Schranz will be replaced by violinist Lina Bahn of the Corigliano Quartet. She is also a member of the CU-Boulder music faculty.

Luzerne County Commissioner Greg Skrepenak, who has seen several of his political allies charged in an ongoing federal corruption probe, resigned today and acknowledged he has signed a plea agreement, saying he has agreed to cooperate with federal authorities.
In a statement released through his attorney, Peter Moses, Skrepenak wrote:
"I did not believe I did anything wrong until I met with the authorities. They demonstrated to me the mistakes I made and now I must hold myself accountable for those mistakes and accept the consequences, no matter how difficult it may be."
Moses would not comment on whether charges are forthcoming.
"I can't comment on any pending legal action," Moses said. "The U.S. Attorney's Office would be the only one that would be able to answer that question."
The U.S. Attorney's Office declined comment. No charges had been filed as of 5 p.m.
Skrepenak acknowledged the federal investigation, and his possible implication, during an interview at the courthouse Christmas tree lighting on Dec. 3.
"Everything's around me, I'm not stupid," Skrepenak said. "Everyone thinks you're guilty by association and because I was not only the commissioner, I was the chairman of the board of commissioners, people even look at me in another light. I can tell you this — being out in the public it's very tough, because people look at you like 'OK, you're guilty, of course.'
Several Skrepenak allies have agreed to plead guilty to accepting bribes from contractors in the past few months and the U.S. Secret Service conducted an investigation into undocumented county debit cards issued to Skrepenak and several of his allies.
Skrepenak was also one of two commissioners who signed a controversial $58 million, 20-year lease with a for-profit detention center at the heart of the kids-for cash scandal.
Skrepenak declined an invitation to testify before a state panel investigating the scandal, saying his attorney had advised him to stay away because he might have to testify against two judges charged with accepting $2.8 million for placing juveniles in the center.
"There's all these open investigations concerning the detention center and he believes it is in my best interest to see what happens before we do anything else," Skrepenak said, Dec. 8.
In his statement, Skrepenak said he is "truly sorry for this turn of events."
"I also hope that while this mistake will cost me greatly and follow me for the rest of my life, it will be used as an example to current public office holders and those seeking public office, that there is a high standard by which you must conduct yourself. You must be able to differentiate between your personal and professional life."
Luzerne County President Judge Chester B. Muroski said he is taking steps to appoint a replacement in light of the resignation.
The procedure has been used twice before within the last three decades, first in the early 1980s when Commissioner Frank Crossin Jr. was appointed to replace his late father and in May 2007 when Rose Tucker was appointed to fill the vacancy left by the resignation of Todd Vonderheid.
Applications for the commissioner seat will be accepted tomorrow, Saturday and Monday. Court en banc will meet Dec. 23 to choose a replacement for Skrepenak.

My beloved Virginia has been hit with another winter storm. That means schools have been closed, plows are busy and grocery stores look like the set of a Michael Bay disaster movie.
You know the scene.
You walk into any Wal-Mart the night before a storm and it's not much different than Black Friday. Instead of knocking over one another for PlayStations, flat screens and digital cameras, people are tackling neighbors for milk, eggs and Charmin Ultra Soft, Mega Rolls.
It's like a zombie apocalypse, but scarier.
As I wander the barren aisles marveling at the shortages, I wonder how long folks expect to be stuck in their homes if the forecast proves accurate. Does a 3- to 6-inch snowfall really mean you're locked down until spring?
What in the world are people doing on these snow days with six loaves of bread, seven dozen eggs and eight maids-a-milking? You eat that much French toast and you start sounding like Gerard Depardieu.
Later, when I've finally made my way up front to checkout — when I've finished rolling my eyes at so many panic-stricken friends and strangers — I pay for my toilet paper, bread, eggs, milk and Little Debbie Star Crunch Cosmic Snacks.
On the way out the door, I'll also stop at the Redbox and rent three DVDs I probably won't watch, but will pay $8 each for the privilege of forgetting to return them for a week.
You might remember the winter of 2009-2010 when much of the East Coast was clobbered with two massive storms and a number of smaller cousins. After the first blizzard, with my lower back on fire and as soon as I was able to get out of my neighborhood, I went with credit card in hand in search of a snowblower.
There are only two good options in our small town and at the first location, the clerk laughed so hard, I thought he might need oxygen.
At the second, the only model left was a huge beast bolted onto a display at an angle 15 feet off the ground. It happened to be the most expensive model the chain sells and something more likely to be sold in Woodstock, N.Y., than Woodstock, Va.
It was twice as much snowblower as a man in the Shenandoah Valley needs. At that price, I remember thinking I could almost buy a plow for my pickup.
Or a new pickup.
Undeterred, I asked a manager and two employees to remove the monster from the display, swipe my card, scrounge up an instruction manual and help me load it into my truck.
My back wrote me love letters all winter long.
What is it about human nature that in spite of sometimes very difficult lessons, we're always reacting to emergencies instead of preparing for them?
We're incredulous when the gas gauge reads "E" and we run out of fuel four blocks from the gas station.
We're stunned when our riverbank home floats away and we have no flood insurance.
We can't believe we can't find batteries in the house when an ice storm knocks out power for two days.
Twenty-four hours before this most recent East Coast storm, with temperatures pushing 60 in Virginia, every superstore was selling snow shovels hanging on large racks right inside the doors. When did they really start to fly? Only when the flakes flew.
Our culture responds well to crisis — we always have, but we're not so deft at averting them in the first place.
Washington has a spending problem? When did that happen?
Obamacare isn't working well? Come on now, that really came out of left field.
Maybe it's just who we are. Perhaps America is at her best when she's rolling up her sleeves and cleaning up messes made by man and Mother Nature. After all, a country of 300 million can't possibly be expected to foresee every coming disaster.
But can't we predict many of them? If we changed our habits at home, could it ripple throughout a community and beyond?
Maybe there are lessons to be learned in the final hours before a snowstorm.
Buy the snowblower you need — not the only snowblower left.
Buy your milk and eggs early and not more than is really necessary.
Most importantly, if you do have extras, save them.
Maybe we can use them to repay China.

WASHINGTON (AP) - The Food and Drug Administration says it is conducting new studies of the safety of caramel coloring in soft drinks and other foods, even though previous research has shown no identifiable health risk.
The agency's announcement comes in response to a Consumer Reports study released Thursday of 12 brands of soda that show varying levels of a chemical compound formed in some caramel coloring at low levels during the manufacturing process.
The FDA says it has studied caramel coloring for decades and has no reason to believe the byproduct is unsafe.
There are no federal limits on the amount of the byproduct, though California considers it a carcinogen. That means products must be labeled with a cancer warning if they exceed the state's threshold for the substance.

LA JOLLA, Calif. -- The third-ranked Barry Buccaneers eclipsed the No. 14 Sunbirds of Fresno Pacific, 9-0, in women's action from UC San Diego's Northview Tennis Courts on Wednesday.
The Bucs experimented in doubles, but still took all three. Elisabeth Abanda and Karina Goia, the Bucs' 13th-ranked pair, stepped up from their customary No. 3 flight to play at No. 1, and defeated Petra Jurova and Angelika Sobiecka, 8-5. The Bucs normal No. 2 pair, Anaeve Pain and Kimmy Twelker, shut out Matilda Ackered and Alison Carre, 8-0, while first-time pairing Linda Fritschken and Blanka Szavay also won 8-0 over Laure-Anne Josso and Megan Lee.
At No. 2, the 31st-ranked Fritschken blanked Ackered, 6-0, 6-0. Akemi Maehama matched the feat at No. 6 with a win over Lee. Ninth-ranked Abanda and unranked Szavay also recorded straight-set wins -- Abanda at No. 4 over Carre, 6-2, 6-1, and Szavay at No. 5, 6-4, 6-3, over Josso.
The final two singles matches came down to third sets. Pain defeated Sobiecka, 4-6, 6-2, 10-1, at No. 3. At the top flight, 19th-ranked Goia pulled a mild upset, defeating the 14th-ranked Jurova, 1-6, 6-0, 10-6.
The Bucs close out their California trip on Thursday, in a match at No. 16 Azusa Pacific. The match can be found via LIVE STATS and LIVE STREAMING.

The Battle of Gall . . . . . . . Stones
Forgive the puns, I am high on Morphine at the moment. In less than 24 hours I'm getting my gallbladder removed thanks to some pesky painful stones. I woke up at almost 6 in the am, in incredible pain in my chest. I never wake up at six if I can help it, I am an unrepentant night owl. In any case it was bad enough that for someone who has never been to the hospital for themselves since birth I gladly went. My biggest regret is that my second run-through on edits is going to be slowed, surgery is a pain-in my time crunch.

The surgery went well and now I am just sore and am going to rewrite how a character feel's about their wounds. I must say I did not enjoy Morphine at all. The way it hits your head all warm and pressing, to me I don't even understand how anyone could get to liking it. I hated it, but I am a person who has almost always toughed it out and avoided taking anything except on rare dire occasions, this was actually the first time I ever had morphine.

I revisited an old favourite this week – Louis Jordan. It is impossible not to be cheered by Louis Jordan and his Tympany 5 band. Humorous without falling into novelty he can always put a smile on my face and, in my opinion, remains the best music to bake to. The songs cover a range of styles such as rhythm and blues, boogie woogie, and jazz. The greatest compliment I can give is that there isn't a track I ever skip when listening to a Louis Jordan CD.
My favourite track? I do rather have a penchant for "Ain't nobody here but us chickens". This track always seems like a song version of a Gary Larson cartoon – it has that kind of surreal comedy to it. All the lyrics are sung by chickens as the song is about a farmer checking on a noise in his barn. He asks "who's there" and gets the response "there ain't nobody here but us chickens". I like it when the chickens get into expressing why they need their sleep and start listing their chores:
TomorrowIs a busy day
We got things to do
We got eggs to lay
We got ground to dig
And worms to scratch
It takes a lot of settin'
Gettin' chicks to hatch
Why aren't people writing songs like this today?

I agree about current song writers. Good choice. I love that old Dinah Washington and Louis Jourcan song 'Is You Is, Or Is You Ain't My Baby"
