Curry needs to be fired immediately if they blow this game.
It's like a bad dream over and over. Tay at point forward. Dice/Sheed in the 4th quarter. The game slows down to a snail's pass, we can't score, and on the other end our defense goes to hell. Max, Amir, hell Sharpe, put anyone else in.
Can someone tell me how the hell Beasley has gotten behind our entire defense twice (or was it 3 times?) for breakaway layups?
Hopefully if the Pistons lose this game they won't lose it on phantom Wade fouls, like that last one on Rip.
Looks like they are going to pull it out. Thank you Stuckey for finally saying screw everybody else and taking over at the end. The frustrating part of this game (and others) is that it gets t the point where it's a dogfight because of bad line-up/strategy and then when we face better teams we can't recover.
Wow... could you imagine the backlash Sheed would've taken had he missed that 3 point heave? Wow.. it was wide open though but still.
I take full responsibility if we lose this game. I jinxed it.
I can't believe Hamilton missed BOTH free throws!! Unbelievable!
Happy for the win. Curry is a useless dolt. Go Pistons.
What a nail biter.. Curry almost blew another end of the 3rd qtr lead by not bringing Amir back in and then waiting until crunch time to bring in Alf...who got the save with his 2 FT's Rip gets back into the game in the last 18 seconds to miss 2 critical FT's after Tay bricked a tech FT. They basically set up wade up for a game tying three ball but thank goodness he went back to his first half brickness on his last two shots. The irony is I turned to the Rockets-Grizzly game after wards and they showed an NBA commercial with Rip on the FT line showing how cool he was in making free throws.....
In rebuilding season I'll take any win regardless how ugly they are. Stop pretending like this team has answer to every game situation. This is not Flip's and Billup's team but still I see forumites complain "oh why we do not have floor general there? Where are foolproof plays? where are clutch free throws?" Get over.
Get down, Charlie Brown!
Trying to lose every game one second half rotation at a time. That could be Curry's slogan. Alot of stupid moments in the clutch. AI having ADD. And Rip picking up the FT disease that has spread throughout the team. We did outrebound them! edited to add; Our spacing is still really bad. Teams are just sitting in the paint in the half-court set.
How could Tay not grab D-Wade at halfcourt?? I mean the guy is quick like a flash but come on, he could've bumped him pretty good there. I'm glad he missed that 3 point attempt.
WE WON! WOOOOOOOOOOO! Dice was a rebounding Robot. That's one, just need 3 more robots to go with AI.
Thank god he missed... that would've been an collapse for the ages if we had lost.
I think Tay may have fouled Wade after he crossed the half court before he took the shot..at least he thought he did and that is why he was asking the ref at the end of the game why he didn't call it.. he would have really been the refs ear if Wade had made the shot.
NBA - Miami Heat/Detroit Pistons Box Score Wednesday February 4, 2009 - Yahoo! Sports AJ, 4 rebs, 4 fouls, no points in 10 minutes. A Curry like performance. lol Dice, 17 rebounds off the bench. Sheed 18 points. Pistons did not record a block. Stuckey, McDyess help Pistons beat Heat - NBA - Yahoo! Sports
Nobody should be scared of us at all. Nobody ever improves. None of the mistakes are ever corrected, individually and as a unit. Even our wins suck. I know I'm being a malcontent, but there is absolutely nothing to be excited about now. Our offense is basically just one on one crap.
Yea that about sums it up. Can never seem to build up a lead without letting them back in. I can think of only a couple of games where it wasn't a struggle at the end. Then to miss 3 free-throws - we were lucky to win. At least a win it was. Can't rely on Dyess to get these rebounds every game though. Going to have to get some other players involved. Stucky was fun to watch. That was nice how he canned those 2 tough shots at the end.

Simple, versatile chocolate bark for Valentine's Day
Published: Wednesday, February 13, 2013 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, February 12, 2013 at 3:36 p.m.
Looking for an easy way to impress this Valentine's Day? Consider a simple — but still sensational — chocolate bark.
As treats go, it doesn't get much easier than this. And the best part is that there are infinite ways to personalize the bark. You know, so that you can show that you really do listen to your significant other and care enough to cater to his or her tastes.
You start with a pound of chocolate. It can be white, milk or dark. Doesn't matter. Then you add your toppings, things like nuts, coconut, dried fruit, or more creative options such as pumpkin seeds and caramel popcorn. Whatever your topping choices, look for contrasts — something crunchy, something tangy, something salty.
We've created several combinations that are rich in contrast and beautiful in appearance, but feel free to play with the toppings or to switch out the chocolate for milk or white. Of course, because it is the star of the show, be sure to use a good quality chocolate.
1 pound dark, milk or white chocolate
Start by lining a rimmed baking sheet with waxed paper. Have all your bark toppings ready before melting the chocolate.
If your chocolate is in bars or large, thick pieces, use a knife to carefully chop it up into small bits. Transfer the chocolate to a large glass measuring cup or bowl, then heat in the microwave on medium, stopping to stir every 20 to 30 seconds, until completely melted.
Pour the chocolate onto the prepared pan, then tap the pan on the counter to level the melted chocolate. Immediately sprinkle your choice of toppings over the surface of the chocolate. Allow to cool completely and set up, then break into pieces.
Makes 12 servings.
— Large-flake coconut, toasted sliced almonds, cocoa nibs
— Chopped dried cherries, shelled pistachios, chopped chocolate wafer cookies, large flake sea salt
— Honey roasted peanuts, chopped extra-crispy cooked bacon, ground black pepper
— Crushed toffee pieces, toasted pumpkin seeds, chopped dried apricots
— Chopped candied ginger, chopped macadamia nuts, toasted coconut
— Broken salted pretzel sticks, cut up mini marshmallows, caramel popcorn

It looks great!
Threads by AFFo$ regarding the killstripes ==> Old Fashioned 'Killstripe' Thread and AFFo$'s ROTJ FPH Paint Up
Looking real good mate, very impressive!
What are you using as masking for the weathering?
Mate, that helmet is looking mint!! As a newbie and someone who one day really wants to have a go at painting one of these would you say that painting your bucket has been fairly easy on the whole ( i know at one point you wanted to call it a day whilst doing the dome) or has it been a lot harder than you thought it would be??? keep up the good work your doin a gr8 job!!!
looking good! Colours look very accurate.
Raf - Thanks mate, i know I can count on you to deliver the threads i need.
Fettspec - I'm doing a layered method, i use Humbrol Maskol to mask each colour before applying the next, works pretty well.
BSG - I don't think it has been harder skill-wise, i knew i would have to do things multiple times to get them right, it was the time i was unprepared for. WIth enamels that need at least 24 hours to dry per coat, with multiple coats required for some colours the days really start to add up. If you go into it knowing the time it's going to take and follow some of the great guides of here from guys like TF and Jayvee you'll have something to be proud of.
Thanks for the reply , i never really gave the time issue much thought , more worried about how hard it would be regarding the layering and airbrushing but this is good to know, thanks again..
So i've got the killstripes down and the ear decals are almost finished though the right now needs a bit of extra work. I have some decals for the symbols that still need to be applied.
Here's a sneak peek of the finished product. Still needs weathering and the detail in the dent needs to be done.
Anyway i'm happy, i think it looks good.
Very nicely done! I hope to do a CC helmet as well! Thanks for posting the pictures of the progress-it looks great! Do you recommend the CC for a first timer?
gt8mar - CC is awesome, once you put the time in to polish it up nicely it works as a great base for the helmet. Remember to make sure you get good adhesion with your first coat though, i used a matt clear as a base coat and everything turned out perfectly.
Okay guys i'm going to call this one as done, the decals are on and i've added some nice splatter weathering, i tried not to go overboard so kept it relatively light. It's been a tough trip but i'm happy with the results, any comments are, as always more than welcome. (the lighting on one of these shots is a little off but it gets the point across)
The only thing left to do is attach the base of the visor to the helmet, it's kinda just floating at the moment.
You did an excellent paint job! All the colors are spot on, the scratches are in the right place, could you ask for more? Love all the paint jobs that were done in the near past, but I still don't have the guts to start my own helmet...
Thanks for the advice! This thread has been great, very helpful. I hope to embark on my journey soon.
Raf, you should just try, I am sure it would look awesome. I have an Asok CC if you need helm to try on lol.
Beautiful! By the way, thanks for bumping this up to the top, I couldn't find it for a while.

|wolfy dog
|The shelters often come up with these exotic breeds while most of them are mutts, resembling them maybe. I have personally seen how that goes: a stray dog comes in, the staff leaves through a purebred dog book and if one looks like the stray they'll label it the purebred or a mix from it. Most strays are a mix from the local street roaming dogs or an (purebred) escapee that is no longer wanted
The black dog you are referring to is just a mixed breed from the pound. Not a hovawart and does not the traits as one.

i have been in the same position. i had a gsd, roommate had a chow. i got married and my gsd was clearly missing his pal. wouldn,t eat, play and generally just layed on his mat. brought in a gsd pup and all was well again.
op, get a younger dog. preferably a puppy. most will say female, i had two males.
Why do you want a dog your dog's age? That can be a bad mix. Really. It sounds like your dog needs more time and training, and exercise, and then proper management when you cannot supervise. Adding another young dog into that mix can actually cause more problems than it helps.
Then you have two dogs, possibly equal in status within your pack, and both requiring plenty of exercise and training.
You should NEVER get a dog for your dog. Your dog does not need to bathe it, train it, groom it, feed it, vet it, exercise it, etc. The decision to get a second dog should always be because YOU want another dog to work with, etc.
Be that as it may be. If you want a second dog, usually it is best to get the first dog pretty well-polished before bringing in a second dog. And then, go for a dog with a bit of a gap in age. Male-Male can be ok, especially if we are talking altered rescues. Male-female is usually ok -- always there are exceptions. Female-Female can be tricky regardless.
But getting a second dog because the first one is having some problems, is usually not a good idea. It's kind of like having a baby because your marriage is on the rocks.
New Friend for my 1 Year Old
I am looking for a new friend / companion for my 13 month old GSD. When I first got him, I had a girlfriend living with me and we had a smaller dog who he grew up with from 5 weeks old. We split and the smaller dog no longer lives there so Diesel has been alone with me for the past 4 months.
Diesel gets extremely upset when I leave for work for the day and he has acted out a few times while I've been gone this week.
I am looking to adopt another dog near his age and am curious if it would be better to get a male or female
Diesel has been fixed and is my best friend who is always by my side and demanding attention the whole time. Would getting another dog help or worsen the situation?
I recently found a 1 year old Hovawart female at the shelter near my house. Has anyone had experience with a GSD and a Hovawart?

I spent a couple of days with HP executives this week here in Boston. As I worked there myself for 20 years (up to 2001, so I have distance as well), I'd like to comment about how their enterprise business strategy now looks. Of course, I wasn't alone there; there were 250 of us. Those who follow my peers in Twitter may already be overloaded with multiple 140-character cuts: my impression is that the tool tends to makes them behave more like adolescent journalists than analysts. Often, they were broadcasting tweets before even noticing that a particular statement was "under NDA". Vendors will learn to be more cautious in the future; which is not good for us analysts. Anyway, here are my highlights of the HP briefings.
HP's Converged Infrastructure story includes the pending acquisition of 3COM
Nice to see that HP now has (servers + storage + networking) PLUS power & cooling! Now, HP has Cisco squarely within their sights with this one, dropping statements like "they're just a $30B vendor while we spend over $50B in our supply chain"; "as soon as we can, we will replace ALL our Cisco gear with 3COM and realize 45% savings"; and "of course, all 3COM products use the same operating environment, unlike them".
My Take: Well, Cisco started this. They are, indeed, seriously threatened. If HP apply their financial muscle and play the pricing game, Cisco's business and margins may well suffer. Remember, networking is the highest margin area in IT infrastructure: HP is adding it, Cisco is diluting it. But, I also think that Cisco will make other game changing moves in the next months. HP strategists should not be resting on their laurels, they should be doing scenario planning - and thinking way outside the IT infrastructure box.

i have an SWD m11 that has a magwell so tight that i have to use a lot of force to insert and remove a mag. got to looking and notice a very slight concavity in the well like this (exagerated but you get the point).
i can spread it out a hair but unsure the best way to do it. drive a mandrel thru the well or use some kind of spreader???
i am afraid to start taking too much metal off the mags. the poly mags i have would not hold up very long if i thinned them down.
any suggestions?

Hello all,
For sale is a set of five Audi A6 rims in great condition. I am selling the rims only for now, but if a right price is negotiated, I am willing to part with the rims and tires as a package (I am flexible so feel free to contact me). The rims have some very minor curbage. Two of them have no curb rash, and the other three have very minor blemishes around the edges. All-in-all, they are in great condition.
As for the tires, four of the wheels have Pirelli P6 All Season tires 245/40 18 93h and have about 8/32 tread left. The tires are in great condition. The fifth wheel is a Continental Pro Contact 245/40 97h 18 and it also has a lot of life left with 8/32 tread.
Rims retail for over $250 each, and sell for $248 each on TireRack. So this is essentially a very good deal.
Please PM for more details. I can answer any questions you have. I don't have any pictures as of now, but here is a Google picture for reference to get an idea of which rims they are:
I will post pictures sometime today.
Thank you


text: This isn't as much about Rodney's attitude as it is about my own. I was admittedly off the Stuckey bandwagon. I didn't think he belonged in the teams plans for the future. I thought he was overpaid. I've changed my mind. He's really embraced the new team dynamic and emerged as a leader in a way that he was never able to during the previous seasons (despite the talk). I love Stuckey attack mode. We need that. He's vocal and energetic. And he's developing good chemistry with the young guys. I think he'll be a good/important piece moving forward. and contrary to popular belief, Dumars knows what he is doing.

Yesterday, I noted that American Federation of Teachers (AFT) president Randi Weingarten cited an imaginary statistic on MSNBC's "Morning Joe." Weingarten claimed that "most teachers right now in America have less than two years of experience." That's clearly false because the most recent NCES data shows that 91 percent of government school teachers had more than three years of classroom experience in 2011-12.
As I noted in an update to my post, some claimed that Weingarten had probably intended to refer to the mode, not "most." Weingarten herself later admitted that she misspoke and meant to refer to the mode, but even then, the data she meant to cite was out of date. What she said was technically true for 2007-08 (though misleading, as I will show), but she claimed that this was the case "right now," which is false. In fact, the most recent data (see page 12) show that the mode for teacher experience was five years in 2011-12.
Nevertheless, she still claims that the statistic she meant to cite buttresses her point. Actually though, her use of that statistic is misleading.

Has anybody dealt with this ebay seller? How would you rate the quality of their products?
Do a search on Frank-n-son you should find some threads on them.
My personal advice would be avoid
they are the only vendor in this hobby ever to take my money and deliver nothing at all.
Thanks for the heads up guys
garbage! I bought a set of really bad Gauntlets from them. they were not the ones pictured. It would have cost me $40 to ship them back for a refund so I ended up selling them for a 3rd of what I paid.
Thanks for the heads up guys. I was planning on getting those sometime soon, but had to hold out til I had more money. They are sold already, but now I know it wasn't worth it anyway.
PM Man Of Wars Studios, avoid Frank N Son like the plague
Frank-n-Son is a hit and miss. Some members here have bought metal parts that were ok. I personally would not buy gauntlets from them since they are re-casts. I know because I own a pair. I got them before I knew of TDH. I re-worked them so they're decent, but there are much better and more reliable makers here on TDH. Good luck.

Wayne Law receives gift from the Community Foundation for Southeast Michigan in support of Damon J. Keith Center for Civil Rights
DETROIT (April 21, 2010) – Wayne State University Law School received a $50,000 grant from the Community Foundation for Southeast Michigan in support of new programming at the Damon J. Keith Center for Civil Rights.
The Keith Center honors the life and legacy of Judge Damon J. Keith by carrying out his vision for civil rights. The Keith Center will advance learning, attract talented faculty, students and lecturers, enhance programming, and promote civil rights in one of the most culturally rich and diverse cities in the United States. The Keith Center will have active programs of legal studies and will promote community engagement.
"Judge Damon Keith has long been a leader in our community and as a member of the judiciary, has been a courageous defender of civil rights," said Mariam Noland, president of the Community Foundation for Southeast Michigan. "The Keith Center will inspire and empower future generations to take up and carry on the mantle of Judge Keith's legacy."
Law School Dean Robert M. Ackerman noted, "In 2009, the Law School moved forward on a number of Keith Center programming initiatives thanks to more than $2.5 million in endowments. This gift from the Community Foundation for Southeast Michigan will allow us to offer our students and community a greater array of programs devoted to civil rights education and awareness."
The Groundbreaking Ceremony for the Keith Center is scheduled at 1:30 p.m. on May 17, 2010. The 10,000-square-foot building will feature an exhibit area, meeting space, conference space and a 60-person lecture hall. An exhibit area featuring Judge Keith's life and work and focusing on civil rights will also serve as a reception area for the Law School's clinics.
The Honorable Eric H. Holder, Jr., Attorney General of the United States, will speak at the May 17 ceremony, which will be held on Wayne State University's campus (adjacent to the Law School) and attended by a number of dignitaries, including Judge Damon J. Keith, A. Alfred Taubman, Edsel B. Ford II, members of the WSU Board of Governors, WSU President Jay Noren and Wayne Law Dean Robert M. Ackerman.
Other recent significant gifts to the Keith Center include a combined gift from the Henry Ford II Fund and the Edsel B. Ford II Fund and a gift from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation. In addition to his gift, Mr. Edsel Ford has commissioned a portrait of Judge Keith by local artist Nancy Mitter that will be displayed in the exhibit area of the Keith Center. In 2006, real estate developer and philanthropist A. Alfred Taubman made a $3 million commitment (the largest in the Law School's history) to Wayne Law in honor of Judge Keith.
For more information on how to give to Keith Center, please call (313) 577-3113 or visit http://cardinal.wayne.edu/wsugiving/give.cfm?deptid=10. To RSVP for the Groundbreaking Ceremony, please visit http://specialevents.wayne.edu/djkgroundbreaking.
The Community Foundation for Southeast Michigan was founded in 1984 as a permanent community endowment, built with gifts from hundreds of individuals and organizations committed to a strong future for southeast Michigan. Since its founding 25 years ago, the Community Foundation has distributed more than $333 million in more than 32,000 grants to charitable projects in southeast Michigan's seven-county area.

Environmental Accounts
On-going methodological work:
The Group continues its efforts in advancing methodologies in environmental-economic accounting. In particular, it is contributing to the revision of the SEEA. Last year the London Group finalized its recommendations on all revisions issues of SEEA volume 1. It is expected that the London Group will continue to be engaged in the development of the revised SEEA, also with regard to the SEEA volumes 2 and 3. At its 16th meeting in Santiago the LG expressed an interest in also looking beyond the revised SEEA in picking up longer term research issues. The LG also requested to be engaged in the further development of the SEEA Standards for particular resources (e.g. SEEA-Water, SEEA-Energy).
At its 15th meeting in Wiesbaden (2009) Mark de Haan of Statistics Netherlands was elected for a second term as the Chair of the London Group.
Priority objectives:
The London Group's short term priority objectives are to continue contributing to the revision of the SEEA. However, its role will gradually move towards aspects of SEEA implementation and dissemination as well as the long term research agenda.
New activities:
As part of the SEEA revision process, the London Group will:
• Contribute to the development of Volume 2 on Ecosystem accounting and valuation of ecosystem assets and services being led by the EEA and the World Bank respectively;
• Contribute to the development of Volume 3 on the applications of the SEEA;
• Implementation and dissemination of the revised SEEA;
• Long term research agenda.
The 16th London Group Meeting took place in October 2010 (Santiago, Chile). A next meeting is scheduled to take place in the second half of 2011.

Is there a tutorial here on GUNCO? I can't find one.
I traded for a receiver with timed barrel installed. Now I need to know the rest.
Do I HAVE to go to the FILES?:frown:
If you've got the barrel in and timed, you've got the worst part done. The next critical step is finding the correct locking shoulder. Once that's done, the rest is simple mechanical assembly. I put mine together just using the exploded parts diagrams and common sense. It's really pretty easy.
Except putting in the snake-like extra-long buffer spring. That was a bit tricky without the "special tool". But it can be done.
I have 3 other R1 kits. I have to learn about the locking shoulder & see if I have one that fits. Plus the 922r parts I'll get ordered this week.
FALs are among the easiest to build. You will need a set of pin gages from roughly .257 to around .268. I bought mine from enco Enco - Guaranteed Lowest Prices on Machinery, Tools and Shop Supplies but you can get them from any industrial supply house. They are not very expensive (a set of the sizes listed cost me about $30 shipped) Their part numbers are 490-2560 through 490-2680
You simply put your go gage in, put a pin gage in where your locking shoulder would go and find out which is the smallest size pin gage the bolt will close on. That is the size locking shoulder you need. Some folks like to go one size smaller, (increases the HS by .001)
Install the LS and re-check the HS with both your go and no-go. Most will HS with around a .262 LS (although the last one I did needed a .257)
Thank you sir; I see Gunparts guy has an assortment of locking shoulders for $8,500.00
I'll need to do better. I'll get some guages ordered today.
The only work I guess will be refinishing metal & carving new wood stock parts.
And using this Century receiver as a guide on the Century casting I have.
We've got several guys here who can walk you through a FAL build, no need to go anywhere else. Pirate, gunco, myself and a few others have all done FAL builds.
I finally just got the HTS set I had been waiting for to finish this one.
They run about $25 ea. from a dealer, a little less on a private sale. You might get lucky and be able to use the one that came with your kit or be able to swap it with someone. I've got a .261 (I think, I'd have to double check) that I would be willing to part with, if it turns out that's what you need.
Thanks! I'm stumped. What is the " DSA" MD? Md? MD?md? I need more coffee I guess.
I need to get this assembled ,to see if I want to keep the other R1 kits I have.
Are the H, T, S, combos that Gunpartsguy sells not very good?
You can make the buttstock/recoil spring pretty easy out of some 3/4"round bar stock with a hole drilled in it for a cleaning rod section and one end shaped like a big screwdriver. I used a century compliance kit for my first build. I had no issues with the piston, pistol grip, or charging handle. The hammer trigger and sear should only be advertized as roughed out and will require much fitting. Mine wouldn't even fit together as it came from century.

Re: Voltage puzzle
Gary, if it is ten years old, guaranteed it has drited out of calibration. As the Mad hatter said "But it was the best of butter!" and even the best components shift as they age.
If you had one bad cell, that should have been reflected in a significant change in the voltage measured from that battery, and a calibrated meter should have picked it up.
I know, "should". If the turkey baster works for you, great. I found that calibrating my meters was cheaper than replacing anything the acid splashed onto, acid loves me but I have different feelings about it.
Re: Voltage puzzle
I thought the OP was talking about standard, lead-acid, marine batteries. I have a very expensive battery monitor on the boat. And, when I had a totally dead house battery (1 of 4, 6-volt golf-cart batteries in a series parallel rig) that battery continued to provide readings that would have been consistent with a fully charged battery. Even with a light load, it still provided good readings. The hydrometer, however, quickly revealed one cell was sub-par and failed when under a heavy load.
Granted, you cannot test gel batteries with a hydrometer, but the vast majority of folks that I know don't use them. I guess some folks like sealed wet-cell batteries, but I'm not among them. Kinda' like the "no maintenance" car batteries that tend to die much faster than the traditional batteries that allow you to add water. As for getting battery acid on your clothing--I think I may have done that about 10 years ago, but it may have been longer than that.
I also have a very high-quality digital multi-meter here in the office, one that I use for measuring minute changes in line outputs of audio systems. It was very expensive when I purchased it a decade ago, and I don't take it near saltwater--too darned expensive. I also have an old-fashioned load tester from back in the 70s when I owned a service station. It still works, but I rarely use it anymore.
I guess I'm a bit old fashioned--I'll stick with the hydrometer. I've never had one that failed, and you cannot beat the price.
Re: Voltage puzzle
If you have no heavy loads to use, disable the engine and crank the starter a bit, use the starter as a load. It should be good for a 15 second run, ten minutes of rest, another 15 second run, that way there's no danger of overheating it but you'll certainly knock off any surface charge on the batteries. And of course, make Real Damn Sure the raw water inlet is closed when you do that, so you can't hydrolock the engine.
If for some reason that's impractical, get any high-wattage auto headlamp or bulb i.e. 65-100 watts, and some jumper wires or alligators. Connect to batteries and leave it on for 5 minutes, check again at 10 minutes. If you don't mind dumpster diving, you can often find a dual-beam headlight behind any auto parts store, with the low beam burned out and the high beam (what you want) perfectly good.
Re: Voltage puzzle
Thanks Maine?
I was hoping you would weigh in on this one.
Yes these are brand new batteries.
I can't think of anything to put real load on them. The boat has very little to turn on.
Maybe all the cabin lights together would do something.
The engine panel on for 24 hours brought it down to 60%
I will test it every time I get on the boat just to learn what to expect.

The good ones still cost a bundle. My MDX-650 still costs $650-$750 new. The cheaper ones that I've seen all have some limitations.
But, hey...it's always possible. The Chinese have a "conductance tester" that sells for $10 :-)

Re: Voltage puzzle
denverd0n, Hellosailor, and MaineSail are absolutely correct.
Accurate open circuit voltage measurement, done correctly, is an accurate method of determining the state of charge (SOC) of all lead-acid batteries....flooded, AGMs, gelled, etc. Much, much better than attempting to use a hydrometer, for the reasons cited by MaineSail.
For the OP: 12.9 or even higher OC resting voltage is very common with AGMs and gels, but not with flooded batteries. Your battery appears to be a flooded "no maintence" type, so I'd guess that your voltage measurement device is inaccurate. Or, just maybe, there's some charging device still connected, like a solar panel?
Note that the SOC is not the same as capacity. Batteries typically begin to lose their rated capacity practically from the date of manufacture, and they continue to lose capacity throughout their useful lifetimes.
The best way to measure capacity is with a controlled, purely restive 20-hour load test, with the load being 1/20th the ampere-hour (AH) rating of the battery and the load test continuing until the battery reaches 10.5VDC. This is not possible for most users, lacking the time and/or equipment necessary.
The industry standard for measuring battery capacity these days is with a device which measures internal battery conductance and resistance, such as one of the Midtronics series. These cost upwards of $600 and more, so are not available to most users.
For measurement of SOC, however, IMHO you'd be hard-pressed to find a better way than an OC voltage measurement directly at the battery terminals with a calibrated voltmeter after a suitably long resting period.
BTW, this includes the fashionable-these-days "battery monitors", which are only accurate if they have been properly installed and calibrated -- and recalibrated as the battery ages.
Re: Voltage puzzle
"The only true method of determining the charge state is to use a hydrometer."
Consider this, Gary. If that were so, then there would be no way to determine the charge state of AGM, gel, and sealed wet cells.
So, how do you think battery makers, distributors, and warranty services are done on all these other batteries? Right, with digital voltmeters, and internal resistance testers, aka electronic "load" testers.
The main purpose of a hydrometer is to burn acid holes in fabric, so folks can sell you new clothing and upholstery. It has some other minor uses, but that's the main one these days.
The electronic tools are easiily misused, but you can't blame the tools for poor workers.

The electrolyte still needs to settle out over time just like any OCV reading does. 24 hours rest, no loads, no charging is what should be the ideal minimum for an accurate SG reading. You then need to drain and fill three times per cell to get a clean cell reading and correct for temperature. Testing a battery shortly after charging will yield false SG readings. SG reading also tell you nothing about the batteries actual capacity at a given point in its life-cycle.
SG is best used to determine cell imbalances.. It is generally far safer to conduct an OCV test rather than risk acid spillage, burned clothes or a spill than to conduct regular SG readings. Once or bi-yearly is often a good protocol for wets to determine internal cell balance and to determine when to equalize the batteries. In a healthy battery all cells will have a nearly identical SG reading. Also "cheap" hydrometers can be VERY, VERY misleading. I personally use a far more accurate sight refractometer and when compared to a cheap EZ Red hydrometer it shows just how inaccurate they really are. I have seen people throw away perfectly good batteries because of erroneous errors from cheap hydrometers. The floating ball version is a complete and utter joke, the EZ Red style not much better.
The 12.9v reading after 24 hours may not have been enough "rest" time or your meters resolution is bad or it's just a "new battery".. Some battery types can take well over 24 hours to fully settle out, especially when new.
With many wet cell deep cycle batteries 100% state of charge corresponds to 12.7-12.74V not necessarily 12.6. 12.6V is only 90% SOC for many wet cells.. The batteries that DavidPM bought are Deka Deep Cycle batteries, same as Sam's Club, West Marine, NAPA or O'Reilly Auto sells. Deka says any voltage above 12.6 can be considered full. Kind of non-committal..
I have however tested MANY Deka/East Penn batteries and found a resting voltage for "full" to be 12.7-12.73V.... With a new battery 12.9V after 24 hours is not out of the question. Apply a decent load for 5 minutes and then test and you'll be closer to reality or, just let it sit for a few more days..
These are Trojan's OCV numbers and I find they match up darn close to the DEka/East Penn deep cycle batteries: Note the 10% capacity difference between 12.6V and 12.7V!! On a 400 Ah bank that is 40 Ah's or a full day or more of capacity for many boaters....
Battery SOC at Resting Voltage and 80f (Source Trojan Battery)
100% = 12.73
90% = 12.62
80% = 12.50
70% = 12.37
60% = 12.24
50% = 12.10
40% = 11.96
30% = 11.81

WEST POINT, N.Y. - In the first meeting between the two programs, Army's offense clicked on all cylinders and handed visiting Manhattan a 14-8 loss in the Black Knights' home opener Wednesday afternoon at Michie Stadium. Senior attackman Garrett Thul registered his 24th career hat trick, while sophomores Alex Newsome and John Glesener added five and four points, respectively.
Coming off a tough loss at No. 12 UMass on Sunday, the Black Knights showed no signs of hangover in their first victory of 2013. Thul's four goals led all players and extended the nation's longest goal-scoring streak to 41 games. Newsome's breakout performance included his first career hat trick (3G, 2A), and Glesener turned in his second standout effort of the season with two goals and as many assists. In addition, freshman attackman Connor Cook totaled a career-high three points (2G, 1A) to highlight a host of contributing youngsters.
Army (1-1) rose above Manhattan (0-2) goalkeeper Michael Wiatrak, who turned in a 20-save performance and kept the Jaspers in the game. The Black Knights took 53 shots and dominated the ground ball battle, 49-31. Much of Army's offense came due to increased possession. Freshman Alex Daly won 11 face-offs to help the cause.
"I was pleased with our effort today," said eighth-year head coach Joe Alberici. "We ran into a hot goalie (Wiatrak) who had 20 saves, but we showed persistence and mental fortitude as the game wore on. If you're over 50 shots in this game, it's outstanding and what we need to do to get a victory. I was also very pleased with our special teams play this afternoon. We did what we had to do to come out with a win.
"Up and down the lineup, there are a lot of goals being scored by young players," Alberici continued. "I thought Connor (Cook) made some really big plays, along with scoring a couple goals. He was a sparkplug for us today. I'm happy with our young guys. We're putting them in spots where they know they have to produce and they're able to live up to those expectations."
The final six-goal margin matched the largest of the game, as the Black Knights enjoyed previous leads of 8-2, 10-4, 12-6 and 13-7.
"This was a really good game for us," Thul said following the win. "We showed a lot of improvement and can only get better. Our shooting can still get better and it will be a focus for us moving forward."
Manhattan opened the scoring 4:34 into the game, to which Army responded with four unanswered goals to take a 4-1 lead. The 4-1 score stood at halftime before both offenses put up big second-half numbers to include 17 combined goals.
Cook got Army on the board with 9:34 to go in the first quarter, as he took a Glesener feed and put his second collegiate goal in the books. Newsome scored man-up just 38 seconds later (9:55) after reeling in an assist from senior midfielder Pat Brennan. Army led 3-1 at the end of the first quarter following freshman Will Mazzone's first collegiate goal. The Stony Brook, N.Y., native picked up the loose change on an A.J. Canara shot and slipped the ball past Wiatrak at 2:19.
The Black Knights scored the lone second-quarter goal. Charging at the goal, junior midfielder Tyler Kamide converted his first goal of the season with 12:48 on the clock.
Army came out of the break firing and scored four of the first five goals of the second half. Newsome had a hand in the Black Knights' first two goals of the half, scoring himself at 12:19 during a man-up chance - once again on a Brennan feed - and assisting on senior midfielder Andrew Boyd's first goal of the season at 9:21. Thul and Glesener goals capped the 4-1 Army run and gave the Black Knights an 8-2 cushion.
Manhattan answered with back-to-back goals midway through the quarter, but two more Army goals gave the Black Knights a 10-4 advantage heading into the fourth frame. Cook came around to score from "x" at the 5:54 mark, while Thul's second goal of the game came at 1:44. In all, the Black Knights peppered 21 shots throughout a productive third quarter. Wiatrak made eight of his 20 saves in the same time for the Jaspers.
Manhattan pulled within 10-6 thanks to consecutive goals in the opening five minutes of the fourth quarter. Army went on to out-score the Jaspers 4-2 down the stretch to hang on to the victory. Thul completed his hat trick at the 6:39 mark, while also scoring man-up after a Manhattan face-off penalty with 3:55 to go. Newsome's third goal came with 7:35 to play, while Glesener rounded out the fourth-quarter scoring with his second goal at 4:18. Freshman Tim Coll registered his first collegiate point, assisting on Glesener's goal.
Manhattan's Tyler Eidel (3G) and Tyler Jarvis (2G, 1A) paced the Jaspers with three points apiece.
The Black Knights look to carry momentum into Saturday's game against VMI. Face-off at Michie Stadium is set for noon. Tickets can be purchased at the Army Ticket Office in Michie Stadium, online at www.goARMYsports.com or by calling 1-877-TIX-ARMY.
Game Notes: Army owns a 74-22 record in home openers ... Army begins a new series with Manhattan and Michigan this season ... the Black Knights' opening week includes three games in seven days ... eight different Army players scored a point in the win ... the teams combined for 15 penalties ... Garrett Thul led the team with six ground balls ... senior tri-captain Brendan Buckley added a team-high three caused turnovers ... junior goalkeeper Bobby Sincero made his first career start and finished with seven saves ... senior Matt Ghidotti carried the American flag out of the tunnel.

In the words of Michael Scully, "a seamless, interactive communications platform that can be customized based on the digital profiles people create for themselves." The integration of text, audio and video in real time, it speaks to a person's interests and future interests. And it's becoming an increasingly critical component of access to the Internet – "every human's right," Scully says.
When Scully starts talking about transmedia and the direction of the digital journalism program at RWU, he's incapable of containing his energy. His face animated, he gestures and points, occasionally spreading his arms wide as if trying to capture the excitement of being at the forefront of this contemporary media transformation. Based on the traditional journalistic values – ethics, accountability and access – digital journalism makes those values immediate. And immediately available to be scrutinized – and criticized – by anyone, anywhere, with a computer, PDA or cell phone.
How, exactly, does he communicate this concept to 20-year-old undergrads? By requiring students to publish their assignments online. Not just to YouTube, where you can hide your identity, but to personal Facebook pages, where their coursework becomes public, where friends and friends of friends in this social network will see it – will question, comment, poke holes in it.
"Every journalist learns with their first byline," Scully says, "if their work is good or poor. The audience doesn't stay silent." And in this new digital world, that silence can be broken within seconds. Students in Scully's Digital Journalism I and II classes work in teams, collaborating online to storyboard, script, produce and edit at least five 3-minute videos based on an overarching theme determined at the beginning of the semester. Everything – everything – is published online. The proof is in the body of work produced.
With a new home in Global Heritage Hall and rising enrollments in the Communications program, Scully tells prospective students that it's a great time to be studying the discipline at RWU. Key to innovation in teaching these new techniques has been the tools and flexibility provided by the University administration, he says: "They may not always understand me, but they're willing to let me experiment. And they trust me to do it right."

ARSC T3D Users' Newsletter 55, October 6, 1995
T3D/E Software Information at the Alaska CUG
One of the most important parts of the CUG meetings is a chance to hear about software plans from some of the developers themselves. From the way they talk about their product, a user might gauge whether a fix or a feature is a major or minor effort, whether is will be on time or not, whether it's what the user wanted or not, ... Of course, the answers from a salesmen are that everything will be on time, it's exactly what you wanted and it was a snap to implement.
For the T3D user, the software plans must have been a disappointment. CRI is racing to complete software for the T3E and the T3D user is shown what will not be implemented on his machine. With the T3E not available until March 1996, even the the software planned for the T3E seems remote to this T3D user. This summary concentrated on T3D/E software plans.
From the Totalview Talk by Dennis MoenCRI is moving to have totalview as the common debugger on PVP, MPP and Sparc systems. Stability is their number one concern and they request that coredumps with the current product be submitted with any SPR. The newest version, 2.0, will be released in the 4th quarter of this year and the 2.1 version in the 1st quarter of 1996. A list of features for the 2.0 version:
- a line mode version
- simplified windows
- additional ease of use buttons and sliders and boxes
- ability to pipe data into user programs
From the Message Passing Toolkit Talk by Peter RigsbeeCRI plans to organize PVM, MPI and SHMEM under one unbundled software called the "message passing toolkit" (MPT). This will provide one common interface for all three products. Then the support for each product can be uniform. The schedule looks like:
MPT version 1.0 4Q95 PVM, MPI, SHMEM for PVP 1.1 1Q96 PVM for T3E 1.2 3Q96 MPI for T3EThere will be no MPT release for the T3D. Peter came up with two interesting facts about message passing:
- There have been .25M downloads of the public domain version of PVM from Oak Ridge National Labs since PVM was made available in 1991. (Being free, probably had a lot to do with that!)
- The work on the MPI2 standard will include some form of "one-sided message passing", like CRI's SHMEMS.
From the CRI Hardware and Software Report by Irene QualtersThe current version of MAX is 18.104.22.168 and it was made available 8/28/95. This version of MAX has the rollout/rollin capability of T3D job management. The next version will be the 1.3 version, out in October. (ARSC will move to this version as part of the Unicos upgrade [editor])
The 1.3 Programming Environment will be out in 4Q95 and it will include:
Craylibs 2.0 Craytools 2.0Also in 4Q95 will be the 2.0 version for CF90. This release will include the T3D.
(I think that all of these releases for the 4th quarter will be out late in the quarter, rather than this month [editor]).
Irene reports that there as been no progress in the industry on HPF and that CRI continues to believe that CRAFT Fortran is the better product for performance.
From Bill Harrod's Talk on the MPP Scientific LibraryWith the 1.2.2 version of Craylibs_m (that ARSC is running now), most of scalapack is now available. Scalapack is the "scalable" version of lapack based on the Blacs, Blas and Pblas from Oak Ridge National Laboratories.
In the 2.0 version of Craylibs_m will be:
- complete implementation of Scalapack
- all of Lapack, including the eigenvalue routines and the singular value decomposition routines
- 3D FFTs
CRI is continuing its work on distributive sparse solvers.

MPPMON and/or MPPVIEWIt seems about a year ago that a very useful CRI utility for the T3D was installed at ARSC, mppmon. This tool provides a snap shot of what is running on the T3D in one screen and with "qstat -a" is great for monitoring the T3D. At ARSC the utility is called mppmon, but at other T3D sites it may be called mppview. Below is a sample of its output and its man page. One undocumented flag is the capture of the current single screen with the command:
mppmon -L > now.screenSample screen:

MPPVIEW(8) NAME mppview - Displays massively parallel processing (MPP) system activity SYNOPSIS /usr/bin/mppview [-h host] [-i interval] IMPLEMENTATION All Cray Research systems with a Cray MPP system DESCRIPTION The mppview command displays a map of active partitions running on the Cray MPP system. It uses the curses(3) library to drive the terminal display so that many terminal types may be supported. To specify the system to be monitored, use the host option. If you do not specify host, the local system is monitored. The screen refreshes every interval seconds until you type q to quit mppview. The mppview command communicates through rpc(3C) with the system activity monitoring (sam) server, samdaemon(8), running on the host system to obtain the information that you request. The mppview command accepts the following options: [-h host] Specifies the network name of the host to be monitored. The default host is the local system. [-i interval] Sets the refresh rate to interval seconds. The default interval is set by the server. Interactive Input After you enter the mppview command, an interactive screen appears. At the top of the screen, the following option menu is displayed: help summary torus page refresh clear quit To move between the options, use the <TAB> key. When the desired option is highlighted, press the <RETURN> key to execute it. For the help option, first you must press the <?> key to enable help mode. For the other options, you can type just the first letter to execute the option directly. Option Description help Displays help information. You first must press the <?> key to enable help mode; then, other menu options can bring up their help displays. summary Displays summary information for all of the MPP partitions. torus Graphically displays each node of the Cray MPP system. To select the information displayed in a node, use the torus submenu options: user User name of the program on that node group Group ID of the program pid Process ID of the program prog Program name page Moves you to other pages. If the display does not fit on one screen page, enter one of the following commands to select a page: + Forward one page - Backward one page # Select a page number refresh Sets the rate at which the display is refreshed. The refresh is expressed in tenths of a second. Refresh rates smaller than the rate at which the samdaemon(8) is collecting data do not take affect. clear Clears the screen and repaints the entire display. quit Quits the program. After the csam(8) utility is running on your terminal, you can use the following keys to change displays: Key Description TAB Changes the selected (highlighted) option. ? Enables help mode, in which other menu options can bring up their help displays. NOTES If mppview is not compiled on a system with UNICOS MAX software, you will get a message, "No MPP system present", when you try to execute the mppview command. SEE ALSO csam(8) for more information on displaying system activity data on a terminal samdaemon(8) for information on the system activity data daemon xsam(8) for information on graphically displaying data about system activity UNICOS System Administration, publication SG-2113 UNICOS Administrator Commands Reference Manual, publication SR-2022, for the printed version of this man page.

Jason Aldean
Aldean privately financed an eight-song CD during this period to sell at shows, recording it in Nashville in 1996. Michael Knox spotted Aldean at an Atlanta showcase a year or two later, and signed the singer to a songwriting contract with Warner-Chapell Publishing, which allowed Aldean to move to Nashville in 1998. When a couple of recording deals fell through and his songwriting contract was about to expire, Aldean was on the verge of giving up on the music business when he attracted the attention of the independent label Broken Bow Records, which released his debut album, simply called Jason Aldean, in 2005. Aldean returned to the studio in January 2007 to work on his sophomore release, Relentless. The album, featuring the single "Johnny Cash," hit stores in May of that year.
Wide Open followed in 2009 and its success established Aldean as a major country star. It had three number one singles -- "She's Country," "The Truth," and "Big Green Tractor," which crossed over to the pop Top 20 -- and "Crazy Town" was nearly as big, peaking at number two. Aldean upped the ante with 2010's My Kinda Party, an album that was even bigger than its predecessor thanks to the number one singles "Don't You Wanna Stay," "Dirt Road Anthem," and "Fly Over States," plus "Tattoos on This Town" and "My Kinda Party," both of which peaked at number two. All of this raised expectations for Night Train, Aldean's fifth album, which arrived in the fall of 2012. Featuring the hit singles "Take a Little Ride," "Night Train," and "When She Says Baby," Night Train was another number one hit for Aldean. He followed it up in 2014 with Old Boots, New Dirt, which also entered the Billboard Top 200 and country charts at number one, partially due to the momentum of the hit single "Burnin' It Down." Old Boots, New Dirt generated three other Top Ten hits -- "Just Gettin' Started," "Tonight Looks Good on You," and "Gonna Know We Were Here" -- that kept it on the charts into 2015. The next year, he delivered his seventh studio album, They Don't Know, whose September 2016 release was preceded by the singles "Lights Come On" and "A Little More Summertime." ~ Steve Leggett

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Mike James fractured his left ankle during Monday night's win over the Miami Dolphins and will be out indefinitely. The rookie had already rushed for 41 yards on only five carries before the injury. Last week, he touched the ball 30 times for 166 total yards. Moving forward, RBs Brian Leonard and Bobby Rainey will be the primary ball-carriers for Tampa Bay.
Fantasy Analysis:
The full extent of the damage done to James' ankle are not yet known. He will undergo further testing Monday and a a more precise timetable for his injury will be laid out. The early reports suggest he is likely out for the year. Leonard is the lead back from here on out. It's just important to remember Rainey is younger, faster and has big play ability which was on display Monday night. Both runners will split playing time and it'll be interesting to see how the Bucs opt to divide the carries.

So you should be! That's a hell wicked pressie!
Wow! That's one beautiful present from Santa! Congratulations for the book!
Now a small request from you for the TDH family: after the holidays, could you do some hi-res images (photo or scan) with the Supertrooper pages posted by me in this thread ==> 'New' Boba Fett images and facts found on my many Internet travels.?
That is wicked cool! Do you know where santa found it?
More Christmas goodness. This one from my pal, Dennis McCarthy. Probably dug out from the closet where his Emmy's reside. Found this information on the net:
"Glass paperweight presented as a holiday gift to the production crew of Star Trek: Enterprise, during the shows first season by series lead Scott Bakula. Etched glass paperweight measures 6 x 3. "
This is sooo cool. Thanks, Dennis!!!

text: I used to have real good hunting east of Patagonia and east of Nogales. I quite 3 years ago when it became necessary to keep a camp guard 24 hrs because of the illegals coming through. Our camp would always fill over half in the first 2days of the Oct hunt. It is not safe any more, what a shame. I have seen a few by my cabin around Alpine, but mostly elk.

These push-buttons are available in silver, with ring or dot lighting in red, blue, white, green, yellow & orange: There's one for everybody's
These push-buttons were especially designed and manufactured for 12V operation, therefore no additional resistor is needed. The push-buttons can easily be connected with crimp- or flat connectors with the desired cables. Of course simple soldering is an option as well. The 22mm strong thread can be perfectly fitted into e.g. a computer case. The included counter nut secures the push-button exactly in place and the also included O-ring seal protects the electronic components on the rear end. Therefore the button can also be used outdoors, as it is splash-proof!
The area of applications is wide-spread, not only in the computer area, where the button can be used as a reset- or power button or even for switching between different components, but also in most household applications such as a garage opener button or door bell. Other applications include being used as a horn-button in the car or as a button on any Hifi-equipment: The applications are almost unlimited!
The technology used and the quality of manufacturing are absolutely outstanding at this price! The moving element seals perfectly with the stationary components. There are no ridges or other remains from the manufacturing process on the button. The lifespan of the mechanical parts is stated to be at least 1 000 000 contacts! The permitted temperature range is from -20°C op to +70°C. The button can be connected to either AC or DC voltage and, of course, the whole button is completely rust-proof.
A highlight that no one who enjoys DIY should miss out on!

I'm still pretty new here but i was wondering if there is a 501st or some other star wars group in the western Washington area?
I'm still pretty new here but i was wondering if there is a 501st or some other star wars group in the western Washington area?
Yeah man, totally. I know I'm in WA, Crixler is, I know there's a 501st garrison here in WA, and I know of at least one Boba on here from the Seattle area.
Oh, Crix doesn't post on the forums much though :P
You planning on building a Boba?
Anyway, enjoy TDH,
im looking into building a jodo costume but i vary new to all this and a bit worried i will screw it up... good to know im not alone in Washington though thanks
nice suit btw ... you got alot of pics on your photo bucket .... is the chest armor from a reference that im not familiar with?
Thanks for the comments dude, and the Jodo sounds like it'll be sweet when completed.
Yeah, I have a lot of pics, and the chest armor (which quite a few people call "scales") are of my own design.
As to being new and nervous, that's why I started with a custom Mando, so that I could take a step into the costuming world and learn some techniques that will help me build a Boba Fett costume once I feel I am ready.
Good luck with the Jodo build,

text: Kennedy's leadership will be sorely missed by all educators and students Statement by Massachusetts Teachers Association President Anne Wass on the death of Senator Edward M. Kennedy. The educators of Massachusetts are mourning the passing of Senator Edward M. Kennedy. For his entire career, Senator Kennedy worked to improve the quality of life for average citizens, to expand opportunities for the less fortunate and to illuminate the dark corners of society to prevent the spread of ignorance and prejudice. He understood that quality education for all was central to achieving these ends. As chairman of the Senate committee that oversees education, Senator Kennedy fought to improve funding and services for students with special needs, for children who live in poverty and for college students in need of financial aid to fulfill their aspirations. In his fight for health care, the well-being of children -- our children, our students -- was always front and center. As a lifelong advocate of civil rights, Senator Kennedy believed that all students are entitled to a quality education regardless of race, religion, gender or disability. He understood that separate is never truly equal and that discrimination in any form cannot be tolerated. His ability to learn from his mistakes and to dedicate his life to advancing his values is a lesson to us all. In this as in many other things, Senator Kennedy was a great educator. He worked with perseverance and courage so that the weakest among us were taken care of and respected. His kindness, his dedication, his goodwill and his leadership will be sorely missed by all educators and students in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Statement by Dennis Van Roekel, president of the National Education Association Sen. Ted Kennedy was a strong, courageous leader in protecting the basic right of all students to attend great public schools. The NEA's 3.2 million members recognized his work with our highest honor, the Friend of Education Award, for his leadership. He was a longtime advocate for teachers and students, and he left an indelible imprint on every major education law passed since the 1960s, including Head Start, the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, direct student loans and the Class Size Reduction Act. More than any single person, he shaped the modern landscape for public education. His contributions are as numerous as they are lasting. Kennedy's legislative legacy affects all working Americans and their families. He set an example for all lawmakers by consistently working across the aisles on critical policies, including the Family and Medical Leave Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, COBRA, and health care. His leadership and lifetime of experience are needed now more than ever, and he will be greatly missed.

How was your first day in teaching? I want to hear some of your stories...was it a good first day? Did you miss anything out? Were you nervous?
I want to hear from teachers who had no teaching experience. I have no teaching experience whatsoever and planning to do CELTA in November. Any experiences from the CELTA course would be helpful too
