A US/Mexico border crossing bridge will remain unfinished until the Mexican govt appropriates funds for the other side of the bridge.
Based on the "history" of a similar project in New Mexico, it could take Mexico five years to do their part of their project; and then a decade before it becomes attractive for commercial traffic to actually use this port of entry.
Meanwhile, our govt spent money building this bridge, and could have spent the money building fence to secure the border instead?

Long time no update. I guess I need to start posting stuff here again.
Anyway, I did a minor modification to LinuxArt today... Just a little change.
Not much else is happening right now. Been really busy working on Linux.com related things, and also recently pushed LinuxGram.com live.
I'll post more news as it happens. *grin*

The original trilogy spawned a whole lot of interesting and cool looking designs of vehicles and spaceships like the Jawa Sandcrawler, AT-AT, AT-ST, Millennium Falcon, A, B, X and Y-Wing Fighter as well as other cool designs that we all come to know of so incredibly well.
But whats a Rebel army with cool looking spaceships without a Dark Side to fight so of course the enemy also had cool looking spaceships like the T.I.E. series of fighters and thats something that the fans and fan-atics of the System line been asking for over the years.
Over the years that have past since we first saw the release of the first wave of LEGO sets from the Star Wars saga The LEGO Group first gave us Darth Vaders T.I.E. Fighter along with the Y-Wing Fighter and later the T.I.E. Fighter and now finally the T.I.E. Bomber.
Anyway. Bombs away. Heres a bombastic review.
The box:
See my review of 4480 Jabbas Palace.
The instruction booklet:
See my review of 4480 Jabbas Palace.
The building of the set:
Not much at all to say here, as its very easy to build.
The set itself:
The wings of the T.I.E. Bomber is identical to the wings of Darth Vaders T.I.E. Fighter with the exception of two (2) 2 x 3 light gray plates that are included in the latter so the LEGO designers saved some time and could focus on the pods where the difference actually is.
Unfortunately the LEGO designers got the plain and simple totally idiotic idea to put a Marital Aid missile and firing device in the bomb pod for added playability I guess and turned the cockpit pod into a bomb pod as well and thats truly stupid in my opinion.
A detail that I actually didnt think of while watching the films over the years is that the T.I.E. Fighter pilots has a different helmet then the Stormtroopers and the mini figure actually has the latter one which makes it incorrect but I think can live with that little and minor mistake.
But poor pilot as the T.I.E. Bomber cockpit is completely free from any panel detail parts but thats something that customizers and I can look into later on but except this and the above facts the set is rather well done and not so flimsy as many reports have said on the Internet.
Unless you try and fly it by throwing it across the room that is...
As far as accuracy goes in my opinion at least the LEGO designers got the T.I.E. Bomber pretty close to the original filming model as was/is possible with LEGO parts even if the wings just like on Darth Vaders T.I.E. Fighter are slightly too short but its pretty close.
Being a former model kit builder that however still are surfing the Internet looking for facts and references on original filming miniatures I stumbled across the facts a few years ago that the T.I.E. Bomber was built from the old MPC model kit with some modifications to it.
Primarily used from the old MPC Darth Vaders T.I.E. Fighter model kit were the wings that were slightly enlarged.
To sum things up:
Out of all the brand new January 2003 sets and the T.I.E. Fighter versions we have been given this is actually my favorite set of them all as I truly like the design and the set as well and Im truly recommending it to anyone building or collecting the Star Wars System scale line.
The only minor complaint Ive got about this set is that the cockpit pod is used as a bomb pod as the latter one contains that plain and simple idiotic Marital Aid missile but Ill re-build it as soon as Ive ordered new parts for it to make a corrected version of the T.I.E. Bomber craft.
So therefore Ill give the T.I.E. Bomber a score of 4 out 5.
There you have it people. Hope you enjoyed my little review and contribution.
Kindest regards,
Lars Sweden Olsson in Sundsvall, Sweden.

Here's a fang-tastic look for cake mix cupcakes. Dye prepared frosting with food coloring, add candies for the face.
Look for Halloween-themed paper baking cups in the baking aisle at craft stores.
If you have only one pan and a recipe calls for more cupcakes than your pan will make, cover and refrigerate the rest of the batter while baking the first batch. Cool the pan about 15 minutes, then bake the rest of the batter, adding 1 to 2 minutes to the bake time.

It's brother vs. brother tonight in Ripley when Grant Gardner's Ripley Tigers host Guy Gardner's Belmont Cardinals.
"The whole family is pulling for Guy," Grant Gardner said. "I get to be the bully and the bad guy all at one time. I'm fine playing that role as long as we win."
The brothers – Grant the older – are Baldwyn graduates and former Bearcat standouts, facing off for the first time.
"If we lose, there won't be any more holidays at our house," Grant Gardner said. "It's a Civil War, like a 'Loser Leaves Town' match. I knew it was coming. We always knew we were going to be coaches."
Guy hopes to see a different result than he saw on the playground.
His Cardinals come into the game with a 10-9 overall record, 1-1 in the division.
Ripley (14-9, 1-3) comes into the key Division 1-3A matchup with a shell of the team that started the season. Four of the Tigers' starters from opening week are no longer playing. Senior Anfernee Rutherford and leading scorer Malik Pearson are both out for the season, Rutherford with a back issue and Pearson with a torn ACL. Marques Girley transferred to a school in Memphis.
Deion Palmer is leading the Tigers with 11.8 points per game. Trent Moses leads the Cardinals with 14 points per game.
Personnel losses haven't kept the Tigers out of games. The three division losses are by a combined 11 points.
"That's part of it. We've had some kids step up. We've played well," Grant Gardner said.
Top 10 Journal teams are scheduled for a big Division 2-3A game Friday when Mooreville visits Aberdeen. The No. 6 Troopers are 21-3 on the season. Both are 3-0 inside the division. No. 4 Aberdeen (16-5) is getting 14 points per game from Rico Haughton. Austin Timms scores 15 per game for Mooreville.
The Robertson's Sportswear Challenge features eight games Saturday at North Pontotoc. No. 6 Itawamba AHS faces No. 10 Tupelo at 12:30 p.m. Fifth-ranked Belmont closes the night against North Pontotoc.

Description & Highlights
Senville 12000 BTU Energy Star Ductless Mini-Split - Silver
The Senville 12000 BTU Energy Star Ductless Mini-Split (MS9A-12HRDN1-BS0W) is the perfect alternative to complicated and expensive central air as well as sometimes noisy and inefficient window or portable air systems. Equipped with a high-quality multi-purpose Toshiba compressor, this mini-split uses advanced inverter technology to operate at adaptable speeds instead of constant ones so you can enjoy consistent temperatures year-round without ever having to worry about uncomfortable and costly temperature fluctuations. Additionally there's no need for ducts or retrofitting of any kind as the air is sourced from the compressor that is installed outdoors, connected by simple copper tubing and electrical wiring. The two-direction air vane provides rapid, evenly distributed temperatures with a cooling capacity of 12,000 BTUs and heating capacity up to 12,500 BTUs, while the Fresco Tech™ air filtration system utilizes seven filtering stages to help eliminate airborne bacteria, odors, harmful gases, and other air debris.
This incredibly efficient ductless mini-split air system is Energy Star and AHRI certified, drawing up to 40% less electrical power than central forced air systems. With the exceptional Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) rating of 19, you can be sure that this mini-split air system will always convert electricity into cooling or heating power with the utmost efficiency to save you money. The digital multifunction infrared remote control has a dynamic digital LED display and provides the convenience of controlling your unit from a distance, while the auto-restart function and digital 24-hour, clock, and sleep modes enable automated operation giving you one less thing to worry about. The low energy consumption levels, effective temperature control capabilities, minimal noise levels, and simpler installation combine to make this mini-split air system a great choice for creating healthier and more comfortable living spaces all year long.

Snapchat Moves Beyond Selfies, Adding Regular Text, Video Chats
Snapchat, the mobile app best known for its self-destructing photo messages, is adding a new feature called Chat that will let people hold regular text and live-video conversations with each other.
Swipe right on a friend's name in your Snapchat inbox to start chatting. When you leave the chat screen, messages viewed by both you and your friend will be cleared – but either of you can always tap or screenshot to save anything you'd like to keep (addresses, to-do lists, etc.)!
We let you know when a friend is Here in your Chat so that you can give each other your full attention. And if you're both Here, simply press and hold to share live video – and Chat face-to-face!
Snapchat's foray into live video — much like Apple FaceTime and Google Hangouts — and text chats is just the latest example of companies trying to morph from being masters of niche services to being everything for everybody.
Snapchat rose to fame by specializing in a unique feature — the Mission: Impossible-esque self-deleting message, encouraging selfies, silly messages and explicit content. It eventually learned people could just screenshot those ephemeral photos, neutering the specialty, and it watched a more traditional messaging app sell to Facebook for $19 billion.
Facebook, meanwhile, seeing a popular type of messaging that it didn't have, sought to replicate the feature by resurrecting the old Poke as an app (only after it tried and failed to buy Snapchat).
The risk is that with stodgy old text chats, Snapchat becomes just another mobile-messaging app like WhatsApp (Facebook's prize), Facebook's Messenger, and on and on. As each adds emoji and multimedia and stickers and other features, they all start to blend. If Snapchat's nifty new feature of tipping you off when both friends are available for a video chat catches on, you can bet that it will pop up in other messaging apps.
Snapchat is wise to its roots: When you are done with your text or video conversation, the message history will erase once you go back to your inbox. You can see how Snapchat's new features works in the video below:

Constitutionally it does because they have a religious moral objection to doing so and the government cannot impose a moral code upon a religious institution that violates their religion. If Sandra has a problem with that she can go to a different institution. The Left needs to stop trying to impose their morals on everyone else. Paying for someone elses contraceptives has nothing to do with workplace standards, its all about getting free stuff.
Should a Christian Scientist business owner be able to refuse to offer any health insurance, given they don't believe in doctors or medicine? Should a Scientologist business owner be able to refuse to cover psychiatric care, given that that goes against their beliefs?
Heath care isn't "free stuff". You pay for it. All employers have to offer it. And the government gets to decide what constitutes an acceptable level and kind of health insurance. The law does not apply to explicitly religious institutions, like a church. But it does apply to schools and hospitals.
Abortion is a human rights issue, not a reproductive rights issue (youre no different than the slave owner who tried to claim slavery was a property rights issue rather than a human rights issue). However, even if it were, nice logical non-sequitur, someone having a right to do something does not mean they have a right to have it paid for by the tax payers. I have a right to own firearms, that doesnt mean that therefore the Government must pay for them. Nice try at that sort of liberal slight-of-hand, its sad some people actually fall for it though.
The debate over the merits of abortion is irrelevant to the discussion. Women don't agree with this and aren't going to be persuaded.
Nope, actually it doesnt matter whether the issues are related or not, me being wrong about one point has no weight as to whether I am wrong about a different point. Thats like saying because Florro correctly predicted the Packers game last week he is therefore right about next weeks prediction, thats a complete logical non-sequitur.
You say correlation. I say causation. Either way, your analogy is poor. Making correct predictions historically does not mean all of Florio's predictions will come true, but it does mean he is more likely to be right that someone who's predictions rarely come true.

What do you get when a you throw a piano off a high ledge? The answer is cliff notes. In keeping with this theme, one should note (pun intended) the sounds could best be described as discord. There is a lack of harmony.
Each year almost like clockwork there seems to be a plethora of requests for curing puppy issues. The list includes biting, not coming when called, not picking up bumpers, not retrieving to hand, avoiding water, being wild, being too laid back and house breaking/crate training (or lack of).
The common theme is to ask for assistance after hearing cliff notes. Why is that?

DH and I are self employed and as such we buy on the open market our health insurance.
Current monthly rate 425.20 for both of us. New plan that BUMMA wants 924.97
That is more than a 100% increase and more than $500 per month.
WE had a good plan. We got our plan cancelled. Bumma got to cancel it because at some point our ER copay increased from $100 to $150 per visit. OF course no comment about this being equal to to below the norm for most employer plans. 13 years ago my employer plan er jumped from $100 to $200.
ER copay new offered plan. $150 per first visit, $500 anymore.
So according to BUMFACE the jump from $100 to $150 was bad and evil so CANCEL EVIL PLAN. but $150 for first ER in a year and then $500 for any other visit is GOOD GOOD GOOD> The man is off his rocker. That is just the tip of the iceberg,.

In "Decision Time," Editor Brian Lovett shares a scenario from his 20-plus years hunting turkeys. Each hinges on a critical decision. Post what choice you would have made, and then see how things actually turned out.
Conclusion: Charge of the Dark Brigade
When I said, "The birds couldn't see us yet," that wasn't entirely accurate. They had no doubt heard our soft footsteps and saw two dark forms on the forest floor. Of course, turkeys see and hear stuff like that many nights, and if those unidentified shapes pass by, turkeys typically don't get alarmed. If, however, those blobs sit by roost trees and fidget as it gets light, turkeys usually identify a potential threat, fly down the other way and get out of Dodge.
My friend and I quietly backed out of the area and set up 100 yards from the turkeys. A half-hour later, as daylight neared, soft tree-yelping let me know that the birds weren't spooked and that we'd made the right choice.
Better, it turned out that we'd set up between several hens and a lonely gobbler. The hens flew down toward us, and the longbeard joined them from the opposite direction — all within 30 steps of my buddy's barrel. After some nerve-shattering gobbling and a great spitting-and-drumming show, my friend ended the hunt with what's still one of my favorite opening-day smashes — all because we'd retreated in the dark.
What decision did you make?

As a New York resident who hunts in Pennsylvania I carry a permit for both New York and PA.
It takes quite a bunch of money (100.00) minimum and time, (almost 12 months)
to legally get a permit in New York.
When applying in PA , the county clerk checked my NY permit, called the NY state police and issued it on the spot.
According to her, after all the hassle of getting on in NY there was no need to wait.
While PA recognizes other permits, NY does not.
Although I could probably go down to one of the side streets in Rochester and bypass all the crap and just get one illegal.......

Strengthening disaster management partnerships
ASG Catherine Bragg is in Quito, Ecuador this week, to attend the Fourth Regional Meeting on Enhancing International Humanitarian Partnerships in Latin America and the Caribbeanand to discuss global humanitarian issues and regional challenges with senior representatives of the Government of Ecuador.
Ecuador has extensive experience in disaster response and plays a key role in regional cooperation. The meeting will look at ways of strengthening collaboration between OCHA, the Government of Ecuador and other partners in disaster management, prevention and response. It will also provide a unique forum for humanitarian partners to share their information and experiences to help improve coordination in this particularly disaster-prone region.
In the last 12 months, many countries in the region have been severely hit by floods and landslides during the rainy season, compounded by the 'La Niña' phenomenon, especially affecting Colombia, Venezuela, Bolivia, Peru and Ecuador. The hurricane season, which typically runs from June to November, also represents a risk of disaster for many countries.
Ms Bragg's mission confirms OCHA's commitment to strengthening its partnerships with Member States and regional organizations in support of more effective humanitarian action at the national, regional and global level; and to promote OCHA's mandate, humanitarian coordination tools and services in a region where emergency response and disaster preparedness are key.

If you have diabetes, you may think that only a lot of exercise is helpful. But that is not true.
Increasing your daily activity by any amount can help improve your control of your blood sugar. Whether you are trying to lose weight, keep your heart healthy, or just want to feel better, there are a lot of ways to add more exercise to your day.
One of the best things you can do is get up and start moving. Any activity is better than no activity.
Get up to change the TV channel instead of using the remote control. Clean the house. When you are on the phone, walk around.
Get outside of your house and do chores, such as gardening, raking leaves, and washing the car. Play outside with your kids or grandchildren. Take the dog for a walk.
When you run errands, walk to the store if you can. If you do drive to the store, park your car in the farthest part of the parking lot. Do not use drive-up windows. In the store, walk down every aisle, even if you know it has nothing you want.
At work, walk over to see a co-worker instead of calling or sending them an e-mail. Take the stairs instead of the elevator. Stand up and move around while making phone calls. Stretch or walk around instead of taking a coffee break or snacking. During lunch, walk to the post office or do other errands.
On your commute, get off the bus one stop early and walk the rest of the way to work or home.
If you want to find out how much activity you are getting during the day, wear a pedometer. These small devices clip to your clothing and count the number of steps you take.
After you find out how many steps you take on most days, try to take more steps each day. Your goal for better health should be 10,000 steps a day.

Looking for a more current recomendation for two way training radios Not sure the value between a $30 set and a $60 set except for the $30 bucks
Just asking for personal opinions
Amazon.com has just about the best deals around. Get either Motorola or Midland and opt for the charging cradle instead of AA batteries. You can always carry extra AA's for backups, as they work in most of the re-chargable units. Also buy a roll of neon duct tape to put on the antenna or get brightly colored cases. If you get the camo versions, you'll understand why when you have to buy a second set...

We've not had good luck with the Motorola rechargeables. I have an older Motorola 5210 that takes 3 AA batteries and mine lasts nearly all season, whereas I see the others go dead every other session.

I don't like the rechargeables. They don't hold a charge long and I forget them in the house.
I agree with Charles, when the rechargeable ones go dead you are done. I carry spare batteries on the truck.
Look on Ebay and you can find all types very reasonable. You can replace some of the battery packs with regular batteries.

Thank you for helping make our site better.
PartSelect Number PS11743305
This compression nut is used with the plastic water line of the icemaker assembly.
This part works with the following brands: Whirlpool, Admiral, Estate, Inglis, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Roper, Maytag, Crosley, Jenn-Air, Hardwick, Magic Chef, Amana, Caloric & Glenwood.
The line going from the ice maker fill valve ruptured and leaked water on the floor. The outlet fitting for the ice maker water inside the freezer was plugged with ice which caused the pressure to build up in the line and rupture it. The discharge tube inside was full of ice because the ice maker fill valve was old and was leaking ever so slightly. This allowed water to exit into the discharge tube gradually and build up ice to the point of blocking the discharge tube.

" These IEMs have an MRSP of $40. For that price they are not worth it. However, in many discount places, especially in Canada, you may find these @ $15 or less. If you find them for this price, grab them. I personally paid $10. Sound is great for the price. They look very rugged and feel solid, I believe they are made from aluminum. The cord is also tangle free and feels very nice...." --thug behram

Exceptional Fragrence
I started using Kimono Rose about 15years ago & have loved the fragrance. It is not too overpowering but has a great floral fragrance that lasts all day.

Great fragrance
Great fragrance. Good price. Nice gift. Great everything. Nothing more to say!
Amazing scent!
I absolutely love Kimono Rose body lotion. The fragrance is so lovely and the lotion is incredibly moisturizing and absorbs quickly. This is one of my favorite Thymes products.
Unique Floral
When I rub the lotion into my skin it is creamy. Later my skin feels like silk. The texture is close to perfect. Peony is the wonderful fragrance in this blend of fragrances that "grabs" me ! There is a citrus added to keep it from being your typical overly sweet floral. Throw in my favorites, vanilla and jasmine and I'm engulfed in scent heaven! The currant seals the deal.

Romance in a bottle
This beautiful scent can best be described as pure romance in a bottle. Luxurious and perfumey - the silky lotion leaves you smooth and gorgeously scented for hours. Such a special scent, I wore this on my wedding day - and am brought back to that most special day every time I smell it. Such a treat!

Kickstarter and Game Development: Highlighting Games Coming to Linux Part 5Throughout this series we have discussed a few of the upcoming games for Linux, which have been funded in part or in whole, via the crowd sourcing website Kickstarter. In the previous articles, we spoke with various developers about their experience with both the Kickstarter initiative and supporting Linux. The one thing that most of those game studios have in common is that they have based their games on the Unity 3D game engine.

I love the idea but ... will we be getting driver support from AMD and Nvidia ?
Nice read, I worked on a project last year that wanted to use unity but went with a custom coded engine because unity lacked linux support. Im very happy to see this is going to be added in the coming version.
nVidia worked hand in hand with Valve for the last linux driver release. That as far as I know was the first gamer oriented Linux driver from nVidia EVER. As Steam comes to bare on linux and other developers push further into *nix land I imagine AMD will finally get off there butts and start offering proper drivers.Life is what you make of it, we exist for the sole purpose of existing. Dont waste the universe efforts!
All statements, imagery, and ideas contained within any writings are merely retold tales of fictional acts by a figment of the universe imagination.
So your looking for an AMD FX motherboard, things you need to know. Whats the max safe temps/volts for an FX?
[SIZE="1"]Green Gorilla, CM 690-II nVidia, FX 8320, GTX 670, liquid cooled
Glad to hear NVidia is working on it, at least. Hopefully AMD doesn't screw itself over
Things on the driver front are really picking up.
As for Unity3D, I have played a few of their games for linux and they work quite well. I have noted that the execute bit almost always has to be set before you can double click on the executable or else you get a dialogue indicating that Linux doesn't know what to do with the file. Its a minor thing, and overall it allows great titles to come to Linux easily!HEAT

|the Rod Rack Rod Builder's Forum
|Topic Review (Newest First)
Like natrix pointed out, if you bread a section of a rod you built, most manufacturers will provide you with a replacement section for under $75.00 provided you send the complete broken rod to them. All you do is rewrap and finish the new replacement section.
Now to play devil's advocate: Why on earth should a blank manufacturer or for that matter a rod manufacturer have to replace a rod or blank section for free that was broken because someone was careless and stepped on it or closed a car door, trunk lid, tailgate, garage door, or house door on it? Shouldn't such "user error" breakage or carelessness be the responsibility of the owner of the rod or blank?
Builders soap box
Ill Play Builders advocate:
Creative energy is always looking for a place to express itself. It dosnt mater whether your building fly rods, tying flys, or what ever. Why do you do that? well I say why not? If you dont, or cant generate, or be guided by that creative energy then you really wouldnt understand anyway, and maybe you are better off just being a consumer. For some of us in may boil down to saving a few dollars, but for the most part its not about money, its about the satisfaction of having accomplished something unique and you cant really quantify that can you.
So you build a rod on a Sage blank, and you break it. Then you pack the whole thing up with a check for $20-$30 or what ever it is these days, send it back to Sage and they send your rod and a new blank section back in two weeks, and you spend an evening re-wrapping and finishing the guides. Many blank manufacturers offer similar return, warranty and repair services. No big deal. I have built and broken allot of rods, and I have learned allot about fly rods and taking care of them in the process.
I also buy factory built rods, because its convenient to do so, and there are some incredible rods out here for very reasonable prices.
I started fly fishing with a two piece split cane rod, and an antique fly reel that belonged to my grandfather. After I trashed the rod I got a two piece Daiwa glass 7 wt. which I still have. I know with certainty that I could still do most of my fishing with that setup, and do it well even though most of the guides are bent paperclips stuck on the blank with electrical tape. But these days I have bigger expectations for my equipment, and an engineers appreciation for high tech design, materials, and the quality of the workmanship etc.
So Im a builders advocate I would build rods regardless, for the same in-calculable reason I make bird houses. You suit yourself. Be a consumer if you must, but dont try to argue that its not worth it because that really depends on the definition of "It" dosnt it.
This is a photo of a custom built 7wt Sage Xi2 and a nice little steelhead. The reward is really priceless.
ill play devils advocate.
at a local fly shop one of the customers spent around 500 on parts for his custom t&t build will all nickel silver struble parts, hopkins holloway, feather inlays... etc
he broke that rod accidently while fishing by steping on it.
now what, all that time he spent on that rod has gone to ****. i think one of the benefits of buying a factory rod is that when you get their warranty the whole rod is warranted. you do not have to build a new rod. just mail it in and they send you a new one
Why build a rod
1) Its fun
2) I get what I want.
3) It requires a certain crafty, tinkering mind set that is sort of medititive, calming and theraputic (in a wholistic sence its good for you to make your own and do for your self).
4) Its cheeper thatn paying someone else to do it.
|Gary W
I like a thicker than average good quality cork handle.
I like a strong but progressive blank with good recovery.
I don't like a hook keeper that snags up the line and digs into my fingers when walking with the rod.
I like Fuji Sic single leg guides.
I coudn't find a factory built rod with these spec's, so I built one. I'll be building another; it's my favourite rod.
|You can build a high end $600 rod for $400-450. That's 3 rods for the price of 2.
the answers simple
its something to do in the winter
why build...
Take the best rod that you have and pick out the things you would do to change it if you could. Add to that the satisfaction of knowing that you built the rod that you are catching your fish on. Mix in a little (kill some time with things you like doing), and a dash of (pride and accomplishment) and you have just a few of the reasons. Can you do this for a hobby? of course Can you do this for a living? you betcha. But most of the rod builders and rod makers I know do this because they love doing it, they enjoy working with their hands, and have a "real job" that they go to every day. Can you get more for a custom built rod than a shelf rod? Sometimes you can. In my case and many others I am sure, I sure don't do this to make money (thank the Good Lord). I do it because it is almost as enjoyable as using them when I can.
Rod building offers you choices.
I fish mostly spinning rods, and can choose my guides (try finding Titaneum SiC guides on a shop rod), choose my blanks, and since I like a TN handle, can do that w/ a split grip.
I've often said 'I don't fish for fish, I fish for satisfaction', and it's quite true. Fish are a part of it, but certainly not all of it.
Likewise, I think a large part of building a rod is about the satisfaction the builder receives in using that rod or handing it down to his son, etc. (in addition to the choice of components as Russ mentions).
One can use whatever reel seat you wish of the proper inside diameter on the rod. You can use whatever color thread you wish. You can shape the cork to be exactly the way you want it to feel in your hand. You can use whatever guides in whatever plating you wish. You can add feather inlays, or weave your name in thread, etc. on the rod.
In short, you can have things on the rod that the factory won't bother with doing or will charge you quite a bit more for adding to the rod, unless you get the rod from Meiser or Burkheimer because they build custom rods on their own blanks.
Other than the above, there is absolutely no reason to build a rod from a blank. Just like there really is not reason for most hunters and shooters to load their own ammo. Or for a hunter to make a stock of his own either from scratch or from a semi-inletted or finished blank.
Why build?
Custom rod building...practical? I recently spoke with a shop owner and custom rod builder who explained that his shop offers free custom rod building lessons for the cost of the components, of course. Outside of the personal pride and self satisfaction one gains from building their own rod please explain what else can be gained from the experience. Obviously I have no background in this, however it appears that one would be hard pressed to improve upon today's premium rods considering the all of the R&D and experience that's dedicated to them. I agree that there's an amount of satisfaction attached to tying one's own flies or reloading your hunting ammunition. I just can't see how rod building is an advantage. I would never attempt to build my own hunting rifle. Please enlighten...thanks.

The event notification stuff has progressed quite nicely. It is the basis of some benchmarks I did on Linux and the BSDs, and it made quite a wave when I posted it on Slashdot.
The goal was to create a good abstraction for the various event notification APIs, but also around the various sendfile variants, so it would be easy to write a highly web server. The abstraction part is in libowfat, and the web server is called gatling (it's unreleased so far, but you can get the source code via cvs from :pserver:email@example.com:/cvs, check out "gatling".
gatling now uses sendfile on Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, HP-UX, AIX, and uses mmap+write on the other systems (this provides zero-copy TCP at least on NetBSD and IRIX). gatling uses better-than-poll event notification APIs on Linux, the BSDs, IRIX, Solaris and MacOS X. So it should be the ideal basis to write highly scalable network servers and clients.
gatling is not just an HTTP server, it also is an FTP server. And the beauty of it is that it can be used in ad-hoc mode, i.e. you just run it and the current directory is exported read-only to the world. Uploads are possible via FTP, but only if the receiving directory is world writable. This is incredibly useful, much more so than I would have initially thought. I'm planning to also add SMB and NFS read-only export. Then gatling would be the ideal LAN party network publication tool.
Also, I started hacking on tinyldap again. A friend of mine reverse engineered the database format on a "telephone book CD" for Germany. I thought to myself: this would be a formidable data set to put into tinyldap to prove that it is not just a toy. So he wrote a converter that spit out tab separated data and I converted it to LDIF and it's over 2 Gigs worth of ASCII LDIF. Whew. tinyldap assumes that all your data fits into memory. Not so much tinyldap itself but the programs that create the data file tinyldap serves from. So I started hacking on parse (which creates the binary data file but no indices on it). I ended up completely reworking it and over days my local source tree would not create correct data files. It was a strange experience for me because normally I only do small changes on my local cvs checkout and check every change in immediately. On the other hand, I always wait until it at least compiles and survives very basic tests. But now I checked everything in.
The next step is to convert the index generation to work like sort(1), i.e. quicksort on smaller blocks and then mergesort on these blocks.
That's harder than it sounds because I am sorting offsets. The comparison function has to seek to the offset and compare the data there. So the merge sort would drown the disk in wild seeking around unless I attach the first n bytes behind the offset to the offset before the merge sort and throw it away afterwards. I'm curious how much seeking I will end up doing.
I am also seeking sponsors for my work on tinyldap. If you run company working with LDAP, please go to your LDAP admin when he is doing LDAP administration and see for yourself. Chances are, he will be cursing all the time. Why not spend some money on the development of an LDAP server that does not suck? Hey, you can even say what features you want implemented! If you are interested, please contact me.

After 17 consecutive weeks of outflow, investors tiptoed into emerging markets bond funds again, according to data compiled by Barclays.
For the week ending September 25, $0.56 billion, or 0.2% asset under management (AUM), went into EM bond funds. Hard currency funds benefited the most from the improved sentiment, seeing $0.37 billion, or 0.4% AUM, flowing in. Local currency bond funds turned the corner too, with $0.19 billion inflow.
For the third week in a row, capital continued to flow into EM equity funds. GEM funds were the largest beneficiaries, with $2 billion inflow. Asia-dedicated funds benefited next ($0.3 billion). Investors continued to pull money out of LatAm and BRIC dedicated funds.
Barclays attributed the inflow to improved sentiments towards China and export-oriented economies. Here are analysts Durukal Gun and Koon Chow:
Inflows to GEM equity funds have been accelerating, as investor sentiment is turning as China hard landing concerns have faded and export-oriented major EM economies are likely to benefit from a cyclical rebound in global manufacturing.
Northern Asia (China, South Korea, Taiwan and Hong Kong) comprise of more than half of MSCI EM index, which most GEM funds benchmark to.
For the week ending September 25, the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF (EEM) lost 4%. The iShares JP Morgan USD Emerging Markets Bond ETF (EMB), which invests in hard currency sovereign bonds, lost 0.9%. The iShares Emerging Markets Local Currency Bond ETF (LEMB) lost 1.1%. The iShares China Large-Cap ETF (FXI) lost 3.2%.

I was determined to skip the Greek freeway scene leaving the city (the road I knew to well come in) so I chose the less conventional rout through the island of Salomina. My map showed to small little connections to the mainland which signified Ferry transportation. So, I put my faith in Michelin once again and headed out hoping that the scribbled directions in my notebook and my blind faith will lead me to where I wanted to go. Amazingly it worked. After navigating the streets of Athens I hopped onto a Ferry boat and for 80 cents, five minutes later, I arrived on the shores of Salomina. On this strange island I had my own private road down on the seashore
As I arrived on the western tip of the Island I could now make out a small port and a guy tossing a rope off a small ferry. I asked him where I should pay and where the ferry is going, but alas, he didn't speak any English. So, he rushed me up the ferry and, going 'blind' again, I got on. Five minutes later we were back on the mainland and I was just a bit closer to my destination.
As the Temperatures climbed, hovering around 35C in mid day, I finally arrived at the camping site near Isthima, about 10Km from Korinthos. 80Km today meant a long day tomorrow.

Download the video iPod version of the 'how to fix a puncture' here. It's much higher res than the YouTube version.
Bike maintenance videos
Five bike repair and maintenance videos have been posted to YouTube. There are many more to come.
They will be also be available as higher-resolution video podcasts for subscribing to and downloading to your video iPod. The links will be placed here soon.
The videos are also available on the YouTube Bicycle Maintenance group.
Video podcasts to go
With today's release of Apple TV there's now an easy way to get video podcasts on to your high-definition television screen.
Previewed as iTV by Apple's Steve Jobs last year, Apple Inc. (now without the 'Computer') has plumped for Apple TV as a name. ITV, of course, is a UK broadcast company network and might have taken umbrage at use of its name.
Quickrelease.tv will soon upload to iTunes all of the video podcasts found on CYCLING: News & Views, the old DotMac account, now sadly broken. Not that Mac stuff ever breaks
