Free wood is always the best kind... cheap wood is the next best kind...
Whats the best type of wood to use to build beehives out of? Pine, oak, cider, cypress?thanks,Dracono
save the scraps because one scrap from one part will make another part.
Here's a couple, three more from memory that would meet the rot resistant standard. American Chestnut, often used for fences and the preferred wood for caskets back when it was available. Black Locust, if it could be found in large enough pieces it is very rot resistant as I have used it for untreated fence posts and have gotten fifteen years of solid service almost as good with the same size of lumber issue is Red Mulberry in the same application.

Thread: Anyone remember the 1977 season?
Re: Anyone remember the 1977 season?
And speaking of gambling, Rosey also bet on SB 3 which many of us still think was fixed. However, his bookie in Miami said that he bet on the Colts. He never bet vs them so if the fix was on Rosey didn't know about it.
However, one of his favorite sons and MLB Bill Pellington of the old Colts did bet vs them. According to bar talk from Pellingtons Iron Horse in Cockeysville all the way down to Greenmount Ave Pellington bet 30,000 on the Jets.
He must have known something. He was also from New York and was a bouncer in his dad's bar when he was a kid.
He got the name The Iron Horse for playing with a broken arm. He loved the cast on it.
Can you see today's players playing with a broken arm?
So he stood there at MLB and whacked the RBs with his cast as they came thru and got the nick name The Iron Horse and later opened a restaurant of the same name. He died a few years ago.
However, he liked the cast so much he played with it the following year. The opposing coach protested. The ref said he has a broken arm.
The coach said that was over a year ago. It's not broken any more.
They made him take it off and the NFL out-lawed playing with casts.
Goodell would have gone nuts back then.

Re: Anyone remember the 1977 season?
My family used to laugh at me whenever I said NFL was fixed and then when the Baltimore got football back, some of the strangest penalties were being called
in close games in 96 & 97 that other believers joined with me. Those were the days when the Ravens with Vinny could score but also couldn't keep the opponent from scoring!
Re: Anyone remember the 1977 season?
Does anyone know how Shula even became a head coach. Rosey went to his favorite son
Gino Marchetti and said I'm firing Weeb. Do you have any suggestions.
Gino said yea, Don Shula. Rosey said wasnt he that DB we had back in 54. Gino said yea. The Lions beat us twice this year and Shula's prints were all over it.
So Rosey called Shula and offered him the job and said you've been recommended. Shula didn't know by whom until he got here and made Gino a player coach.
Gino got into football when he came home from the war. He was in the Battle of the Bulge. He was sitting on the sofa when a college coach came to pick up his brother after giving him a scolarship to U of SF.
When they were leaving he saw Gino's massive body and said would you like to play football? Gino said hell yea and he took them both. Gino became the best player to ever play at the school and is in the HOF but he sure looks like a midget next to Goose and Ngata-lol.

Re: Anyone remember the 1977 season?
In my youth, I went to 7 or 8 Colts games from 80-83.... Every game I went to they frickin loss except for last one... The Houston Oiler game. Little did I know then, it would be the last Colt game for everyone.
The only time in my Colts experience that they actually had a glimmer of hope was in 83 when they were 6-4. My dad scored some tickets to the Steelers game at home so it was the only time I was truly excited for a possible playoff season. Of course, Cliff Stoudt & the Steelers broke my heart (hated the Squealers back then too) and the rest of the season went into the tank.
Whenever I start getting pissed off that the Ravens are struggling at 9-5, I take a timeout, and remember how hopeless the Colts were in my youth. We should all thank our lucky stars that #1 WE AMAZINGLY HAVE A TEAM which is miracle, and #2 THEY WIN A LOT. It just really pisses me off when Ravens fans get so angry when everything doesnt go to their likening during a game, even when the team F----ING WINS THE GAME. Sure the Ravens have a lot of issues, but for Christ Sake, enjoy it a little that we have a Baltimore football team, and they win a lot.

Re: Anyone remember the 1977 season?
I was at the last game yelling IRSAY SUCKS, IRSAY SUCKS. It was like an old Orioles game in the 60s with only a few thousand in the stadium-lol. Everyone knew the team was moving at the end of the season and it did.
I felt like killing John Elway Sunday. They kept showing his face at the end standing on the side lines. How dare he come back here. He started the beginning of the end.
The Colts had the rights to him as the worse team in the draft but he refused to come here because his dad hated the coach - Frank Kush.
Seems Kush cheated him out of some wins or stole some recruits from Jack Elway or something but Jack hated Kush. He swore John wouldn't play for him and he didn't.
So Elway used baseball as a leverage. He was a slap hitter at best with a strong arm in the out field. The Yankees hurt us once again by offering him a contract to their minor leagues. There was no way in hell he was going to play in the bushes.
Ernie Accorsi our GM who later gave Parcells all that talent including Lawrence Taylor for their SBs swore Elway was going to sign but Irsay traded him for a stupid OG name Hinton I think.
Irsay traded one of the greatest QBs in history for a guard and said at least I got that surfer boy 500 miles from the beach.
Elway instantly signed and almost beat us as a rookie. Steadman wrote, you can just tell there's something special about John Elway. He'll be a great one.
We almost had Unitas, Bert and Elway.
Elway would have put a lot of fans in the seats and maybe, just maybe they would have stayed but I doubt it.
Irsay took so much heat from the local media for blowing the deal especially from Steadman and Phil Jackman two of the greatest sports writers to pick up a type writer. Irsay even blamed them for his departure and when Steadman was covering the first Colts game in Indy Irsay saw him and ran over and said how does if feel now. HuH? You lost your team.
The rest of the press room was shocked at such behavior but John just laughed.
But I hate seeing Elway's face on TV especially in our stadium, so much so I almost kicked
my flat screen in half.

Re: Anyone remember the 1977 season?
ABC had a prime time documentary special on the game months afterward which was unheard of for its time (no ESPN back then) questioning the FG (but not mentioning the penalty on Billy Ray Smith).
Pete Roselle hated Rossie for years and had no love lost for the Colts so it wasn't surprising that the NFL quietly raised the goal posts but didn't really make any mention why (although everyone knew why)!
Re: Anyone remember the 1977 season?
Damn, you remember more than me. I forgot about the Billy Ray Smith penalty. Man, we had some great lines back then just as the Ravens have had with Goose and the guys.
Yea, we were always getting screwed by the NFL. Rozelle loved Bmore though and the last thing he said as Comish was, you gotta put a team in Baltimore. Yea, sure but I remember the first draft after the Colts moved and Pete had trouble saying Indiannapolis
Colts and didn't. He kept said the Colts. Irsay slipped a note up that he better say the city's name or else and he finally did as difficult as it was. I clearly remember that one.
Tags succeeded him. His claim to fame was being the lead atty for the NFL when the USFL sued them to get in. Bmore was one of the 3 teams that sued. Me thinks that why Tags has always hated Bmore so much because of that law suit.
After he won Rozelle appointed him as his assistant and he took over when Pete retired and was bent on about keeping us out. He rigged the expansion derby against us teaming up with Jack Kent Cooke who claimed the territory.
Many don't know that the Skins tried to keep the Colts out by claiming Bmore. When the Colts came the city had to pay Marshall an infringement fee of $150,000. Doesn't sound like much now but that was like a million bucks back then.
So we always hated DC and had to blast our way back in. Art was the only owner powerful enough to run over Tags and Cooke. He called in a lot of favors. He scored all those big network deals back in the 60s and 70s that made the NFL rich and pass baseball as America's game.
As for that 65 year, here's a funny. During the game when both QBs went down, Shula put Matte in knowing he had played some QB at
Ohio State. Afterwards he called Woody to see if he could last the entire season.
Woody said he's a very polite kid and you won't have a min's trouble with him. Shula said cut the shit Woody, I'm trying to prepare for the Packers on Sunday. Can he play QB in the NFL and Woody said absolutely.
Matte said the only time he was afraid to play football was when he became QB. LOL.
BTW, Shula never beat Lombardi and never had a defense here lower than 4th.

Re: Anyone remember the 1977 season?
Here's some trivia from Berry Levinson's movie DINER when the guy locked his girl in the closest and gave her a Colts quiz. One wrong answer and they weren't getting married. LOL. That was a true story too.
The question for any old timers w/o looking it up:
What were the original colors of the Colts uniforms?
One of the guys in the movie said I don't know that one but the chick got em all right.
The Colts merged with the NFL in the late 40's
and Ab Watner was the original owner. He owned a string of cemetries around Bmore.
Arty said in his book that he was counting his money in his office on Baltimore Street one day with the window open and a strong wind came in and blew it all out - about $10,000 fell down on Baltimore street as everyone grabbed it up.
No wonder he was in a financial crises and had to drop the team later on.

Re: Anyone remember the 1977 season?
I remember that 65 game vividly. We just moved down from NJ that summer. Even though Dad went to Fordham (Lombardi's alma mater) and grew up in the Bronx he was rooting for the Colts, not Lombardi's Packers. Mom was rooting for the Packers since she had gone to the same high school in NJ with Marie Lombardi. Since Dad had a fairly large tv, black and white of course, all the neigborhood was watching that game, We were all screaming at the tv that the kick was no good, but to no avail.
As for Elway, I was at the game . Did not notice him on the field or on the scoreboard. If I had I would have boo'd as loudly as I did back in 83(?). I hate the son of a bitch. My son in law brought a friend who was a Denver fan to our tailgate. I told him if he wore an Elway jersey we would all beat the crap out of him.
On my "hierarchy of hate" Elway is number 2, only behind Robert Irsay. He is ahead of Jack Kent Cooke and Paul Tagliabue. The order never changes, except sometime I switch JKC and Tags.

NH 'Idol' challenger to sing in show's final 8 tonight
By KIMBERLY HOUGHTON
Union Leader Correspondent | April 01. 2014 9:47PM
Preston, whose real name is Alex Preston Philbrick, is now one of the top eight contestants in the singing competition.
The public is encouraged to attend at 8 tonight, although the doors will open one hour before the show begins.
The remaining eight contestants will take the stage to perform the songs they originally showed the judges during their auditions last year.
The 20-year-old musician said his shyness won't stop him from pursuing his dream.
During a break from the show in February, Preston performed at his old stomping ground, Souhegan High School, where he encouraged the student body to work hard and never give up on their dreams.
Preston took the time to thank his support network and fans — especially those in New Hampshire.
The bottom three vote-getters will be announced at 9 p.m. Thursday, and one more contestant will be sent home from the competition.

NASA and Japan launch satellite to measure global rain and snow
GRN Reports:
The Global Precipitation Measurement Core Observatory, a joint Earth-observing mission between NASA and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), thundered into space at 1:37 p.m. EST Thursday from Japan, NASA announced.
The four-ton spacecraft launched aboard a Japanese H-IIA rocket from Tanegashima Space Center on Tanegashima Island in southern Japan. NASA said the GPM spacecraft separated from the rocket 16 minutes after launch, at an altitude of 247 miles (398 kilometers). The solar arrays deployed 10 minutes after spacecraft separation, to power the spacecraft.
"With this launch, we have taken another giant leap in providing the world with an unprecedented picture of our planet's rain and snow," NASA Administrator Charles Bolden said in a statement. "GPM will help us better understand our ever-changing climate, improve forecasts of extreme weather events like floods, and assist decision makers around the world to better manage water resources."
The GPM Core Observatory is expected to take a major step in improving the capabilities of the Tropical Rainfall Measurement Mission, a joint NASA-JAXA mission launched in 1997 and still in operation. While that program measured precipitation in the tropics, the GPM Core Observatory expands the coverage area from the Arctic Circle to the Antarctic Circle. GPM will also be able to detect light rain and snowfall, a major source of available fresh water in some regions.
To better understand Earth's weather and climate cycles, the GPM Core Observatory will collect information that unifies and improves data from an international constellation of existing and future satellites by mapping global precipitation every three hours.
The GPM Core Observatory was assembled at Goddard and is the largest spacecraft ever
built at the center. It carries two instruments to measure rain and snowfall. The GPM Microwave Imager, provided by NASA, will estimate precipitation intensities from heavy to light rain, and snowfall by carefully measuring the minute amounts of energy naturally emitted by precipitation. The Dual-frequency Precipitation Radar, developed by JAXA with the National Institute of Information and Communication Technology, Tokyo, will use emitted radar pulses to make detailed measurements of three-dimensional rainfall structure and intensity, allowing scientists to improve estimates of how much water the precipitation holds. Mission operations and data processing will be managed from Goddard.
The GPM Core Observatory is the first of NASA's five Earth science missions launching this year. With a fleet of satellites and ambitious airborne and ground-based observation campaigns, NASA monitors Earth's vital signs from land, air and space. NASA also develops new ways to observe and study Earth's interconnected natural systems with long-term data records and computer analysis tools to better see how our planet is changing. The agency freely shares this unique knowledge with the global community and works with institutions in the United States and around the world that contribute to understanding and protecting our home planet.

Discussion in 'The Trash Can' started by haribobo, Oct 24, 2011.
Who will gain the 3 spots to Euros?
Ksenia skated pretty badly at SA meanwhile Shelepen has been very consistent thus far, Korobeynikova seems to be getting her feet under her now too.
I say Leonova, Shelepen, and Korobeynikova for Euros....though wouldn't be at all surprised if this trio comprised places 4-6 at Russian Nationals...
Shelepen is 100% in. Next closest possiblity is Leonova. The third spot is a real wild card. If Makarova stand 80% on her feet, she will get in. If she bombs badly, it's probabaly between Biryukova and Korobeynikova.
Who I want: Leonova, Biryukova and Korobeynikova.
Who I think will be on the team: Leonova, Makarova and Shelepen.
I feel like Biryukova will always get lost in the shuffle.
Leonova, Shelepen, Agafonova
Makarova is milk toast, sorry. She had her year (2009/10).
I fear that too, along with Ovcharova and Agafonova. Their inconsistent jumps seem to always due them in even though they are 3 of the most expressive skaters in Russia right now.
Any news on Sheveleva and when she plans to return to competition?
Leonova, Shelepen, Korobeynikova.
It's not Ova until it's Ova.
Stupid question: these ladies are all eligible for Worlds as well, right?
I'd say Shelepen is practically in if she can skate well at Nationals. She's proven herself reliable and can land at least 6 triples (but usually 7) and has 2 different 3+3 combos. And given that it's Euros, that means at least a medal
Leonova has more than proven herself for Russia.
The third spot is up for grabs. I say Sheveleva if she's healthy and can replicate her LP from last year's nationals, along with a clean SP. Lurve Korobeynikova and Ovcharova, but they're way too inconsistent. I think that Makarova is toast.
Euros and worlds have the same age eligibility. If any of them did badly at Euros no guarantee of worlds.
I think Leonova and Shelepen' will be sent unless they bomb very badly.
The third spot is wide open- seeing Makarova's performance at SA I voted for Korobeinikova, but I think it truly wil be decided that day- depending on nerves, injuries etc.
Personally, I just hope that Alena goes. She proved that she is a fighther more often than not in important situations.
Polina must be a lucky name for skater!
Makarova's LP is a hot mess. I can't imagine that program ever scoring very well. It is such a shame because she is an engaging skater. I would be shocked to see her at Worlds but I guess she has plenty of time to rework things.
May be Makarova will replace her LP, after getting negative feedback on it. The season is still young.
We had basically the same poll not long ago:
I want the ones you want.
I think that Leonova, Korobeynikova (did a mistake voting) and Shelepen will make the team.
Not really because that poll didn't pit Leonova and Makarova against the others and totally left out Polina K. I wouldn't asssume that Leonova and Makarova are sure bets at all.
Polina K has made huge progress in the last year or two. From no 3F and a very unreliable 3R (which she used to telegraph a whole lot on), she now has a beautiful 3F-3T and steady 3R that she can rely on. Plus a gorgeous 2A-3T. She has really good jumping technique and skating skills, and "it" factor, too. She could do really well at Euros. If she could get a reliable 3Z, she could compete with the best from Russia (and in the world).
I agree, but I'm sad because I love Biryukova and Korobeynikova.
IMO, it'd be really nice to take a leaf out of the old time books and send 2 different (or even slightly different) teams to Worlds and Euros.
Also, maybe I'm the only one who thought this way, but isn't Shelepen more likely to be competing against Sotnikova/Tuktamysheva/Lipnitskaya for the 3rd Jr. Worlds spot than she is to be competing for a Euros spot? She could actually medal this year.
Shelepen has already been to 2 Jr. Worlds, she might be tired of it by now. Sot, Tuk, and Lip can't go to seniors, so they have to go to Jr. Worlds if they want the WR points. I think since Shelepen is age-eligible and good enough, she will probably be named to the Euros team if she finishes high enough.
I still think Makarova will pull it together for Russian nationals so I voted for her instead of Koro or Biryikova
My guess is that if she doesn't make the Euro or World teams then yes, she will try to make the Jr. World team, but I doubt that JW is her top priority as she is age eligible for senior championships and the competition for making the senior team will likely be easier. I think she would have opted to do the senior GP this season were it not for the spots being reduced, her not having great results last season, and both Alena and Ksenia having quite good results last season, making it tougher for her to be sure of getting 2 assignments, so she opted for JGP knowing she would get 2 assignments, good ranking points, and likely a ticket to the final (which is how it worked out) and then can still be in contention for the Euro and Worlds teams by competing as a senior at nationals. Also keep in mind, in Russia JW spots are determined my placement at Junior Nationals, it's a different competition from senior nationals and many skaters participate in both. I assume Polina will do that this season unless of course she is named to the Euro and World teams after senior nationals in December.
She'll be a fool if she tries to go against them for a Jr. World's spot, no way in hell she gets one.
Senior Worlds and Euros is her best bet.
But really, what are the odds of 3 girls going to Euros and either 1, 2 or 3 of those girls not going to Worlds? Like, if Biryukova and Korobeynikova get Euros along with, say, Leonova and Leonova, Makarova and Shelepen go to Worlds (or however it pans out)?
It just sucks that, when you look at the number of opportunities Shelepen and Agafonova (among others) have gotten and the number Biryukova has gotten, Sofia definitely got the short end of the stick for seemingly no good reason (bad timing?).
i want these three, too. but i fear, that biryukova will not be able to make the team, or the russian fed don´t want her to make the team.
i really like her skating, but with so few international appearances, it´s hard to show, what she got, unless she is able to step on the podium at her grand prix :/
It's she who gave it away several times in a row, not the federation. I really like Sofia but she is extremely inconsistent in her free skates.
I know this wasn't in response to me, but it's a mix of Russia and Sofia. Why did she only get one JGP and only one year on the JGP, especially considering how old she was when she started there (and the fact that she medaled)? To me, that's a major ball the federation dropped.
She medaled on the last JGP that year (as far as I remember in Turkey) so she couldn't get the second assigment even theoretically. And she got that only JGP spot immediately after she won (or medaled, I don't remember) at Moscow Cup a couple of weeks prior. And that was her first major success on a national level, before that she hadn't shown anything special to give JGP spot for. She spent the only year on a junior curcuit because next year Federation wanted her to debut in senior competitions (there was no one to fill in the third spot at Cup of Russia). So, no, Sofia should blame herself only.

Posted by Benjamin Ensor on the eBusiness & Channel Strategy Professionals Blog on November 5, 2011
One of the (many) things I have been working on for the past few months is this year's European Marketing & Strategy Forum, which is taking place on the 16th and 17th of November at the Grove, just outside London in Hertfordshire.
Our theme is about driving innovation for the next digital decade and what that means for leaders. We're particularly focusing on some of what we see as the big disruptions of the coming digital decade: the growth of mobile Internet use; the growing demographic diversity brought by ageing populations; and the increasing economic weight of emerging economies, particularly the BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India, China) countries
I'm particularly pleased that we've got such a strong line up of eBusiness and channel strategy executives presenting this year, including:
· Georges-Edouard Dias, Senior Vice President of eBusiness at L'Oréal.
· Sean Gilchrist, Head of Digital Banking at Barclays Bank.
· Jonathon Brown, Head of Online at John Lewis.

text: Jenny and Dave interview Debi Thomas. She sounds a bit disillusioned about joining the medical field, although it's still quite fascinating to hear her talk about her post-skating life. There's an almost lamenting quality to some of her responses, she talks about making more money in three minutes as a skater than she does as a doctor, but then she even remarks that maybe she should be on a reality show, and I'm not entirely sure she's joking. Either way, still an interesting interview. Her boyfriend(?) makes a quick appearance, and at one point a creditor calls during the interview. Odd but fascinating. http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA9GOAs5v33Lb3NUAubJdyny4UHdNLkA5

Nickle plate? Chrome? (Looks too shiny for stainless steel.) The bright, shiny sights are going to make shooting it quite difficult.
I can't read the slide, because of reflections. Maybe write it out for us.
What, exactly, do you want to know? (If you submit its serial number to Colt's, they'll tell you all about the gun...for a price.)
I think it's of no use to you. You really need to sell it. There is a guy on this forum named "Haas". He would most likely take it off your hands.:mrgreen:
It's awfully puuuuuurrrrdy, if you like 1911's........
It's a 70 series but I don't recall that thumb safety being used.There were no SS 70s I know of and it's hard to be certain from the pics,but it looks like chrome to me.Nice job too because it looks like SS matte and polished.
It is polished nickel finish. Represented as all stock. It shot perfectly untill I put in a Chip McCormmick clip. I went back to the factory colt clip and it fired perfectly again. My friend tried firing it and said the factory sights and his eyes were not compatable. It is a "Safe " stored gun, not a carry gun.
It is nickle,nice.I think it looks much nicer than chrome but it is too soft to me for a gun you're really going to use,good choice on it being babied.The sights always bothered me but I can see their point from a production standpoint.
Don't worry about the magazine issue,some guns just son't like certain mags.I've had no problems with McCormicks but I have had a few that didn't like Wilsons.Your barrel shouldn't be throated,so the controlled feed of the Colt mags is generally the best lip design.The McCormicks release the round a little earlier,and Wilson even earlier.Sometimes they help with HPs and SWCs,which is why Wilson designed his back in the 70s,but feeding is still spotty without a throated barrel.I wouldn't change anything and do as you are,I see that one as an investment to preserve over a shooter.Nice find for sure,enjoy it.

Talkback with the state's Chief Fire Officer
November 27, 2012 , 5:31 PM by Patrick Mitchell
Some areas of Victoria will be hit by a heatwave this week, parts of south-west Victoria are without some telecommunications after a fire last week and the CFA says this bushfire season is shaping as the worst since 2009.
What better time to check in with the state's Chief Fire Officer?
Euan Ferguson also took questions from listeners.
Tony from Rutherglen was keen to find out why the closest CFA unit wasn't sent to a recent fire in his patch, while Graham from Wangaratta is concerned about the risk of fires along the Hume Fwy.

Arsène Wenger has urged the football authorities to root out individuals who abuse players.
The Arsenal manager called for action after racial and homophobic abuse was directed at Portsmouth defender Sol Campbell during their victory against Tottenham last Sunday.
Hampshire police are investigating events at Fratton Park and Wenger was asked for his opinion at his pre-match press conference on Thursday. The Frenchman was very clear - he wants a 'zero-tolerance' policy towards perpetrators of any abuse at football grounds.
"My reaction is that abuse cannot be tolerated from anybody towards anybody in the world," said Wenger.
"How can you fight against it? You can single out people who do it. You can punish them individually by not letting them in, then maybe single out a group of people who go from game to game and do it.
"Sometimes stupidity is contagious as well and sometimes in the crowd there is a competition to see who can be more stupid. That is why you should not let these people be together.
"First of all, there is a big tolerance and the abuse only becomes singled out when it is racism. That is not the only abuse which you get in the stadium, but maybe people only get touched by it when it is racism. Insults of any kind should not be tolerated either."
The treatment handed out to Campbell proved that England still has work to do to stamp out crowd abuse in the domestic game. However, Wenger still believes that this country is a role model for others in Europe.
"I think the racist abuse is much worse in some other countries than in England," he said. "I believe that England has shown the right direction and the right way by not tolerating it and has done much more than any other country maybe in the game.
"That's why the problem we saw [at Fratton Park] comes up again because people don't accept it. In this country I find they are a model to copy. Most of the time when you visit other countries you meet this problem when you go more down to the south."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

I love barefoot moscato i goes down so smooth and it taste amazing you cant go wrong with this wine especially for girls night in.
Not the best moscato I have tasted, but as the only wine drinker in the house, this is my go-to bottle when I am looking for a light wine to go with dinner during the week.
This is a great choice if you don't know much about wine and you know you're going to run through the bottle, plus it tastes great.

Texas Backs AMR Corp-U.S. Airways Merger, Judge Says No Trial Delay
Earlier today, AMR Corp. (AAMRQ) got a big boost when it announced a press conference with the attorney general of Texas. Well, the press conference has been held and here's the big news: Texas will no longer challenge the merger between AMR and U.S. Airways (LCC).
To get Texas AG to agree to drop out, AMR and U.S. Airways had to promise that they would keep daily flights to more than 20 Texas airports, and to keep Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport as a hub.
At nearly the same time, a judge declined the Justice Department's request to postpone the trial because of the U.S. government shutdown. It will begin as scheduled on Nov. 25.
S&P Capital IQ's Jim Corridore reiterated his strong buy on U.S. Airways:
The court overseeing the Justice Department (DOJ) suit to block the merger between LCC and AMR has denied the DOJ's move to delay the Nov. 25 trial date, which we see as a positive for the chances of a settlement of the suit. Also, unconfirmed Bloomberg and other media reports say that Texas has reached a settlement with the carriers and will drop its objection to the suit. We see these two items as significantly increasing the odds the merger will be approved. We remain positive on the potential for it to help increase LCC's ability to compete with larger rivals.
Shares of AMR have gained 8% to $4.44 at 3:26 a.m., while U.S. Airways has risen 3.5% to $19.61.

text: Looking at Nathalie's face this weekend was agonizing. I want this team to win bronze in Sochi pretty badly. If that could not happen, I would at least like for this team to retire knowing that their work and creativity is respected by the judges. With that, here is my opinion about their material this season as well as their abilities as a whole pros: I believe that Igor was correct in slowing down elements such as the twizzles and making them more precise and well done. Why do an element poorly but with speed? Fabian's facial expression has done a 180! His energy is complementing Nathalie this season and he looks far more confident in his movement and technique this year. Again, they have sought to bring unique perspectives to ice dance and not that which is necessarily understood. They have almost niche taste level in what they select in material. I can't take my eyes off of Nathalie. Her smile and presence are gorgeous. The lift that they do where Nathalie is upside down balancing on Fabian's shoulders is the end all be all lift LOL. Room for improvement I agree with the female Eurosport commenter who said that this team looks a bit messy. Some of their positions look weak and are tough for the eye to totally take in. I get that this team is not big on the classical movements as they look to bring a more modern perspective to ice but currently, their movements, body line, and the way that their arm/ holds etc. are show how much of a gap it is between them and other teams. There has been improvement however not quite enough. I have seen these two train in Detroit and they have great ability however when you compare their programs to other teams, their material is way too heavy on the acting side to really rack up the points. While i understand that creativity is in their blood, they are competing in a system that has clearly defined rules (though tough to understand sometimes). If being true to their creative vision is the most important thing to them, why be mad when the judges don't give you the marks? I am not over the moon about the free dance choreography. The music i love but the concept is not clear to me. I think that the material is understood by P&B far better than they are able to convey through movement. I dont think that it would be a bad idea for them to rework the program to showcase their ability to have great speed and flow. The straight line sequence in the short dance looks very slow and calculated. I get that the Chicago music calls for the staccato steps however when compared to the other top teams flowy and curvy patterns, P&B's looks slow and weak BUT it's probably the most music appropriate choreography. Whatever the case, i think that reworking things might be necessary. key points in the short dance- nuff said Spins. Their spins are so slow in general. I believe that they are capable of far more These are my opinions and observations. I am curious to hear peoples thoughts and opinions about this team, their material, their placements ( fair/unfair and why) as well as predictions. I would also like to hear opinions about how you guys think the coaching change has went. My opinion on that is that While i admire how Igor didnt tamper with the work their French choreographers gave this team, I dont know if that was the best decision. I also remember what Tatiana Tarasova said about the split of Igor and Marina. Paraphrasing, she said that before the two came together, they were just good at their craft however together they are great. I totally understand people not liking Marina's choreography all the time however her eye to detail and her teaching of body movement and how to skate with power and lightness could have benefited this team

"So reasonably priced for such a special item. Very pretty when used on stationery. Purchased for myself and as an anniversary gift!"
"This stamp exceeded my expectations! It was wonderful! I was disappointed that I couldn't change the color on order BUT found out after that you can buy different ink pads. I would have preferred to buy the color I wanted on order."
"I love this stamp for my return labels. It is modern and classy. The product is exactly as it appears. Fast shipping and great service."
"I ordered two of these stamps one with my address and the other to put on our wedding favour tags with our name, date of wedding and thank you. I was really pleased with both stamps. As there was no preview available I was a little worried the spacing and wording may be a little off what I had envisioned but it was spot on! Delivery was also super speedy, I am in Australia and ordered this stamp on Saturday and was pleased to receive it the next Thursday! I would absolutley order a similar product again from Tiny prints."
"This is one of my go to gifts. I have one myself and love it, but also have gotten lots of happy thanks from those I have given it to. Works well and lasts a long time."

text: New 226's have a one piece grip while older 226's have a 2 piece set. There are internal differences between them. As of now, there are no other grips for the new models. This will probably change in the future. Have you handled and compared the different grips ? I love the new model. I converted my old german 226 & 228 to the one piece grip. The only downside is the new grip is more difficult to remove and reinstall. There is a t-handle tool(it comes with the conversion set) that makes it easier, but I don't know if it comes with the new models. Whichever model you chose, you will not be disappointed.

text: You obviously missed the NBA finals 2004. How about 65% shooting, 18 pts 22 rebounds 3 steals and 1 block in the clinching game? Has Darko has a 20+ rebound game in his career? Will he ever? Man you really don't have a clue of what Ben did here. Read up please, you might be..dare I say impressed. Not to mention his consistent,dominating rebounding, blocks and steal numbers he has put up during his entire career as a Piston. How easily we forget, huh. Maybe you're just not trying. At least you have your one Darko game to be excited about. Keep it close bballjay. Keep it very close. lol.

Hi folks,
I have just got my new D100 and I am already getting to the CF memory limits... I am going on holiday in 3 weeks time and I do not wish to spend £140 per GB on CF cards. So the natural conclusion is to get one of those digital storage devices.
I have read reviews etc. about Phototainer, Epson, Archos etc. Which one is the best? And how many GB do you need/would you recommend?
They say that the image quality of the phototainer is not very good. What are your thoughts on that?
What is the usability like of those things? Easy to use? Do they simply interface with your PC as an external drive?
Would appreciate some comments.

I'm trying to decide between a Poly PD and a standard blued 3" barrel model. It will mainly be used for snakes and a nightstand gun. I've got another gun for CC, so that's not a great concern.
I have a few questions about the differences in these two models. How much difference is there in shot pattern? Seems the shorter barrel would spread faster, but it's a small difference in length. How much difference in recoil? Again, the lighter gun seems as though it would be a little more jumpy, but I've read the poly frame soaks up some of the recoil.
Which model would you choose and why? I'm interested in hearing from those who have handled both, but even if you have only handled one let me know what you think of it.

Global Dimming?
The reference is to the 1980s famine in Ethiopia, partly caused by the failure of the Sahel monsoon (but clearly exacerbated by the poor governance of the Menghistu regime then in power). The link is based on a single modelling sensitivity study (Rotstayn and Lohmann, 2002) which looked at only the changes in the indirect effect from the pre-industrial (ca. 1850) to the present day. In this study, there was a shift southward of the rainfall belts in a similar way to that observed over the whole century (i.e. not necessarily just the 1980s). While this is indeed very interesting and does suggest that aerosol indirect effects can have important climatic consequences, it is merely the first step to attributing any particular climatic effect (failure of Sahel monsoon) to a particular cause (aerosol indirect effects). The obvious open questions relate to the importance of other forcings, in particular, greenhouse gases (which were not changed in this experiment), and the robustness of any transient response (i.e. does a simulated drought occur in the Sahel in the 1980s more often than at any other time). Absent this further study (which we expect is ongoing as part of the assessments related to the IPCC 4th Assessment report), it is horribly premature to declare 'global dimming' the cause of this event. Note that while this study looked at the aerosol effects, it makes no claim to actually match the 'global dimming' results. Additionally, other model experiments (Giannini et al, 2003) point to warmer Indian Ocean temperatures to explain the 1980s droughts.
Aerosols are however much more clearly responsible for serious respiratory problems in big cities (London prior to 1950s, Beijing today), and their health impacts are well known. This was one of the big pushes behind initiatives like the Clean Air acts in many countries which reduced aerosol emissions from power stations. While in the developed world (US, Europe, the ex-USSR) emissions have been falling, the global burden is increasing because of development in India and China. Since, on average, aerosols have a cooling effect (although some absorbing aerosols like black carbon (soot) are actually adding to global warming), reducing current aerosol levels (particularly sulphates) is equivalent to an extra warming effect.
An important point to note is that while cooling from aerosols and warming from greenhouse gases may have a slight cancelling effect in the global mean, this is not true regionally. Ideas that we should increase aerosol emissions to counteract global warming have been described as a "Faustian bargain" because that would imply an ever increasing amount of emissions in order to match the accumulated GHG in the atmosphere, with ever increasing monetary and health costs.
Does this all have either an implication for the global climate sensitivity (how much warming would result from a doubling of CO2) or the scenarios used by IPCC to project climate changes out to 2100? This is where I have to disagree most strongly with the commentary in the program. First, if we were trying to estimate climate sensitivity purely from the response over the 20th century, we would need to know a number of things quite exactly: chiefly the magnitude of all the relevant forcings. However, the uncertainties in the different aerosol effects in particular, preclude an accurate determination from the instrumental period alone. While it is true that, holding everything else equal, an increase in how much cooling was associated with aerosols would lead to an increase in the estimate of climate sensitivity, the error bars are too large for this to be much of a constraint. The estimate of 3+/-1 deg C (for doubled CO2) based on paleo-data and model studies is therefore still valid, even after this program.
Secondly, would a re-evaluation of the aerosol effect imply that projections to 2100 must be worse than previously suggested? If the climate sensitivity lies within the bounds considered in IPCC TAR (which I would argue is still the case), the answer is no. The most extreme scenario postulated in TAR (A1F1) already has a big reduction in sulphate aerosol forcing, and so the temperature changes by 2100 are almost purely a function of the GHG forcing. They are therefore unaffected by a re-evaluation of the aerosol indirect effect.

This story is part of a four-part series featuring Cameron School of Business student entrepreneurs. Chris Carter developed his search engine for nightlife after wondering what to do with friends one night and wanting to know the hot places in town. His website SceneAssist.com will go live later this spring, allowing users to find food and drink specials, local events and live music by searching 150 categories.
"You can communicate with your friends about going out for the weekend, and it's not just bars and clubs," he said. "It's all the restaurants in Houston." Carter said the site functions similar to Facebook, and it was custom-designed by his business partner, a programmer. Users can create a profile linked to Facebook, and SceneAssist.com pulls in their Facebook pictures, likes and dislikes and friends. Users can create events, and the site will notify friends via email or text message based on their preferences.
Venues manage their own content with a free lite profile, and they can pay more to upgrade. Plus, Carter negotiates discounts with each vendor exclusively for his site's users.
Having worked on the idea since 2009, the site first went live in September 2010 under the name HappyHourNights.com, and Carter said there were 400-1200 people visiting the site each week with 25 bars and restaurants participating. However, a change in the company's partners and business structure required the site to come out under a new name, SceneAssist.com.
Carter has learned a lot about setting up corporations, having setup articles of incorporation for his company twice. One of his partners is his uncle Ron Burr, the founder of NetZero, and Carter said he has been helpful in setting up introductions and connections to intellectual property attorneys for strong patents and copyrights.
For instance, users can create a pub crawl map showing friends where they are going out for the night at different times, and Carter said his company owns a patent for color-changing icons as part of the Pub Crawl feature, showing who has arrived at each location. Carter also thinks the site is helpful as a travel companion because the features are geo-located.
Carter is a transfer student from Texas A&M University and started off as a business major at UST. Then, he realized the importance of finance for keeping the books, so he changed his major.
"I wanted to be very good at what I was doing, and [finance] also gave me practical applications for the knowledge that was taught in class," he said. "I was able to go back to work and apply it and really see how it works. It really reinforced everything."
Carter credits Dr. Joe Ueng, associate professor and chair of economics, finance and decision information sciences, as an advisor, helping him figure out what direction to take his company. He also received help from Dr. Phillip Bell, who advised him on corporate and dissolution issues. Professor Ramon Fernandez, assistant professor of accounting, also provided accounting advice.
While SceneAssist.com does not have any other employees, under HappyHourNights, Carter said he employed eight UST students part-time in administration and sales and other area college students.
Within the next few months, Carter plans to finalize development of the new site and grow more users and customers. "Ultimately, I'd like to sell it," he said. "I'd like to build it up and sell off the programming."
Last year, Carter started another company Midas Spirits, selling and distributing Passion Tequila, a hot pink tequila, to local bars. He would like to continue to start more companies. "I'm a big fan of the creation phase." UST Resources for Entrepreneurs
For students who are looking for more resources for starting and growing their own businesses, UST offers an undergraduate class, MGMT 3330: Small Business Institute, taught by Andrea Condon, and a graduate class, MBA 5362: Entrepreneurship, taught by Dr. Cristian Morosan, assistant professor of management and marketing.
