|I think I saw those gun filters at HF but I get mine at my paint store...Sorry guy no web site I just learned how to use a computer last year,thats way over my head.Someone was telling me HF had some pretty good water filters.but I cant say for sure....I'll start a thread on making some since I'm making some for my woodshop....They're surprisingly easy
|Deadbodyman,Im A decent welder. Do you have site I could go to that would kinda tell me what I need and how to get started? And what is your opinion on the filters at Harbor Freight? Would they work for what I do? I only paint about once or twice a month. Where do you find the small filters for your gun?
|You'll crap yourself when you find out what they cost....if your handy and can weld you can make them fairly easily.....also get a small filter for your gun they run about 5.00
|Thanks for the responses, guys. I'm definitely going to get some good piping and filters this week. I most have just been lucky with the earlier paint jobs, I guess. There is a little vent on top of the compressor pump that was producing a fine spray of mist. When I called the company 800 number, the guy on the other end told me the mist was oil and it was caused from the check-valve being stuck open, which, in turn was blowing air pressure back into the pump. I just assumed that the oil was getting into the tank from the pump, but water does sound like the logical explanation. Thanks again.
|That old red's pretty smart.....after you get the filters dont forget to get a new hose....use the old one for anything that isnt sprayed...it's contaminated

Here is a link from across the pond that might help you!
|J. E. Allison
I live in a humid location, and condensation in my compressor is a major problem, I don't paint with it but I hate water in my tank cause its bad for the compressor tank, and I don't like the combo air and water coming out the end of my hose.
I have an up-right tank with at drain valve at the bottom. That little piece of sh-- (POS) valve was always sticking and if It did open, it would not let the crap out and would plug up. So I bought a 90 degree fitting and a brass nipple long enough to bring the valve to the side of the tank, it is still the lowest part of the tank, I bought a small ball valve to use as a drain valve. It works like a charm. When I'm using the compressor a lot, I just crack that valve just a little and leave it cracked to let the condensation out.
I'm not a big fan of harbor freight, but I saw what looked like a good water and oil separator for compressors over there. Its worth a look! But I cant see why you have oil problems with your compressor unless you have just worn it out!
If oil was going by a valve that was stuck open then it would just as easily pass through one that is working normally, fixing it would make no difference at all. Fixing the stuck valve is important however because it causes a huge overload on the motor at start up if it is stuck open, BTW how did you determine it was actually stuck?
Running a hose straight off the compressor is just begging for trouble and with no filter/separator I honestly don't see how you ever managed to get any paint to go on without major problems! Washing out the tank is not the solution to your problem, do a search here on air systems and invest in some piping and a good filter/moisture/oil separator. The pipe system and filter/separator are a necessary part of the overall air system and they are NOT optional, simply draining the tank is not going to do much good at all if you don't have a complete system!
|I try and drain the tank every time I use it, but it could very well be water getting in the hose. I don't know much about it. Just thought it was weird that I was getting good paint jobs for a couple months. Then, after the valve stuck, I wasnt able to paint anything without getting nasty fisheyes. Do you know of any good filters I can put on the compressor to eliminate any contmination coming from the compressor tank, water or oil? Thanks.
Oil in air?
Hi, the check valve sticking should not cause oil to get into the air. Oil blowing by the rings may cause that. Are you sure it wasn't water. A water filter is essential for any compressor when spraying paint of any kind. You should be able to drain the tank which you should do often anyway.
compressor blowing oil. HELP!
I painted a bedside a few days ago and the paint was full of "fisheyes". After hunting for an answer, I found out the check valve in the air transfer tube was stuck open and causing oil to blow into the air tank from the air pump. I fixed the valve, but what can I do now to prevent any more oil from contaminating my paint jobs? Can the tank be cleaned out? Is there any kind of industrial strength filters that would stop the oil from reaching the paint gun? I really need help on this, so any advice would be greatly appreciated. By the way, I wasn't using any kind of filter on my compressor before, just an air hose straight from the compressor to the gun. I don't paint that often and thought I wouldn't need one. Before the vale stuck open and blew oil in the tank, I never had any problems with contamination in the paint. Again, all suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Winner of 7 World Motorcycle Speed Records at the Legendary Bonneville Salt Flats !!!
World Motorcycle Speed Records an Extreme Dream? Not for Markertek !!!
Since the beginning, Markertek has always been about breaking the rules and exuding more creative energy and speed than anyone else in the broadcasting industry.
Markertek is one of the main sponsors of Kolb Machine along with others of an experimental motorcycle racing team that holds 6 world speed records at the legendary Bonneville Salt Flats in Wendover, Utah.
Under the leadership of team captains Scott Kolb & Chris Bernard, the project was born out of inspiration for our collective motorcycle experience, creative engineering and a touch of inspiration from Burt Munro who was a New Zealand motorcycle racer, famous for setting an under-1000cc world record, 183.586mph, at Bonneville, 26 August 1967. He was portayed in the movie The World's Fastest Indian by Anthony Hopkins. Scott Kolb & Chris Bernard, custom builds and modifies their own motorcycles in a specialized machine shop located nearby the Markertek campus in the mountains of upstate New York.
This motorcycle racing program isn't some 'fat cat' sponsorship deal --it's ground up custom built extreme high power custom machine fabrication. With lathes spinning, sparks flying, and espresso (yes real espresso) brewing you never know what the brainiacs at Kolb Machine are capable of!
See you 'On The Salt' Dude !!!

Markertek is Proud to Sponsor Jake Quick
Ama Flat Track Pro, Jake Quick is one of the youngest riders sponsored by Markertek. At just 17 years old, Jake is also one of the youngest riders competing in the 2012 AMA Pro series. Jake lives in West Shokan, NY and has been riding since the age of four. When he got his first bike, he knew right away that he wanted to compete. In 2007, Jake picked up a new Honda 250cc 4-stroke a week before the Winter Nationals. Without even having a chance to ride it, he placed 7th in Round 5 at Volusia Speedway Park. In 2011, Jake took an impressive 4th place at Daytona Speedway. Jake works at Markertek on school holidays and when he is not racing. Markertek is proud to be one of several sponsors for such a determined rider and will be watching Jake's racing career very closely!
Check out the The Big Bike Trip Sponsored by Markertek!Initial planning started with an estimation of 2-3 years and approximately 40,000 miles. Having now completed the North American leg of the trip, Rob & Rik have notched up 38,000 miles over 18 months. Clearly, there will be more mileage to cover as they head towards Central and South America, and then back home through Asia and Europe. Realistically, this will probably take another 40,000 miles and between 3-4 years in total. We wish Rob and Rik the best of luck with their worldwide adventure!
What is it? Right now it's just a cool sticker for your helmet and maybe a couple of beers (or martinis) one night out at NAB. It's no secret that a lot of folks in our industry are riders/bike enthusiasts --editors, techs, actors, special effects, etc. --so Mark (the owner/founder of Markertek) thought it would be fun to start a little motorcycle club for all of his friends in the industry.
If you would like a free sticker for your helmet, send us an e-mail request. Include your name, e-mail, the bike you ride, where you work and obviously where the sticker should be mailed to. If you have a cool picture of your bike --send that along as well and maybe we will post it.

Re: Cruising Caribbean Single-handed
So when you lose your radar reception you still have the AIS data on your chart plotter? I can see where AIS would be important, particularly with those tankers and freighters that carry them. But, from what I've read and seen on sites like marintraffic.com not that many yachts carry AIS. The speed of the big ships makes them the most dangerous. So, I definitely will be getting an AIS transponder.
But, you're not using radar proximity alarm? Since most of the trips between islands south of St Martin are one day trips you don't see much need for alarms.
Re: Cruising Caribbean Single-handed
Even though I don't often see them, my AIS shows how busy the St. Martin - BVI passage is with commercial shipping. This is a main passage from the north Atlantic to the Panama Canal and back and is quite busy. But the passage is 70nm wide (unlike the Channel) so ships can spread out a bit. In addition to this roughly north-south heavy metal traffic doing 20+ knots there are numerous cruise ships plying the east-west route between the islands and often they are idling along at 8knots (so they remain in international waters and can keep their casins open). Before I had AIS I had a couple of very uncomfortable trips in rainy weather and low visibility sharing the same sea space with big cruise ships.
The better the weather the better Radar works. In heavy rain and winds, where your boat is heeled over deeply and rolling around, radar doesn't work quite as well and you might lose targets in all the clutter and mush. But for the Caribbean and when not on a fixed schedule you can choose your passage weather with a very high degree of accuracy (since no passage is going to be longer than 24H) and not have to worry about really nasty weather.

Re: Cruising Caribbean Single-handed
That's good information, capta. I've wondered about going west from Florida. Some of the western Caribbean ports look interesting, but it seems everywhere is uphill, against the wind and/or current. And, that way has some long passages. So, starting from Florida and the Bahamas as with most people it seems the best course is to prepare to beat upwind until St Martin.
Single-handed doesn't seem to be too difficult, in the right weather for one long night, but I doubt I could manage more than 30 hrs without good sleep. Rough seas can be tiring, and hard on autopilots, but again good preparation and good equipment should make the difference.
How reliable are radar proximity alarms? Is ship traffic much of a problem from Bahamas, through Mona passage and the route from VI to St Martin.
With autopilot set to follow the wind I could use GPS alarm if there is a wind change. But, of course, using autopilot would require lots of battery power and re-charging capabilities. A wind speed alarm would not give you advanced warning of a squal, but still it would be a help. Also, as you say, keep minimal sail set - keep one reef in the main - or, better yet, get mast furling and buy a new main sail. There never seems to be enough money to do it all...
Re: Cruising Caribbean Single-handed
Sailing the eastern Caribbean alone is pretty easy, but if I were you (I did single hand this boat until I met my girlfriend) I would take at least one crew for any passage from the US to the Carib unless you leave Key West for Cuba, 90 miles, as the ocean passages are long and very tiring.
The north side of all the islands east of Cuba is a terrible and hard windward sail. Better to come into the Virgins, though there are a few who do the south coasts of those islands in tiny hops and love the trip.
Virgins to St. Martin is directly into the trades with a lot of current going north. After St. Martin, as stated above you can day sail to Grenada or Trinidad, but it not running, rather close reaching or beating unless you have a really fortunate weather window.
To give you some idea of the realities of eastern Carib sailing; almost everyone here sails with at least one reef (every day) in the main and more in the Christmas winds. Every channel funnels the wind and changes it's direction so that we seem to be beating more often than not, but the seas are manageable for a boat 40+ feet and more on the beam. Don't forget a good dodger and bimini; real comfort necessities down here.
We love the in mast furling for the main; it gives an infinite variety of sail sizes and does not require someone feeding the sail onto the mast track as I believe in boom furling does.
Good luck and I hope we can raise a few together when you get here.

Re: Cruising Caribbean Single-handed
Thank you TQA. That is definitive information. The offshore route makes a day or so of Mona passage look much easier now.

This is not a passage to take lightly and many people have had a real beating on it esp. if they get clobbered by the thunderstorms that are generated by PR in the afternoon and them rumble all night across the passage.
Getting well clear of the islands seems at first sight to be a good option but for a 30 footer it is not a viable one. The further offshore you are the stronger the head wind will be, the stronger the current will be and the bigger the waves will be.
Bruce Van Sants stategy involves using the night lee periods which gives reduced head winds and keeping close in to minimise the current to make passage along the coasts and only going across the open passages when the winds fall light.
The usual strategy to get to St Maarten offshore involves sailing out into the Atlantic North of the Bahamas and South of Bermuda untill you reach Longitude 65 [ I65 ] then turning south. 2 -3 weeks hard beating to windward in a 30 footer.

Re: Cruising Caribbean Single-handed
You can see St Thomas from the East Coast of Puerto Rico. It is not a long passage and can easily be done in Daylight. We usually leave early and get to Souper's Hole on Tortola by late afternoon. there are great marinas and a West Marine in Fajardo if ypu need to re-equip.
|sv sea bird
Re: Cruising Caribbean Single-handed
Yes, I keep picturing the eastern Caribbean as all lying north and south.
So, to restate; instead of turning south through Mona passage why doesn't anyone (that I've read) continue east past Puerto Rico and then turn south to BVI ect. I realize it would require a much larger weather window and some sea room off the PR north shore, but the many difficulties I've read about Mona passage would seem worth considering.

Hi - I wonder if anyone can help me.....I am 20 years old and have just completed my first year at Cambridge University (studying for a BA in English), but am having to take a year out due to being seriously ill for a large chunk of the year. I'm alright now, but still have to take the year out due to admin reasons - I am due to return and complete my degree in 2010. I've always wanted to teach English abroad and was planning to do it when I graduate - but now that I have this year it seems like the perfect time to do a TEFL and go off and teach somewhere (hopefully Italy - that's my preference). Do you think this is a good enough basis on which to apply for jobs (ideally in Italy..)? - I also taught English for 3 months in Cambodia during my *first* gap year - although I didn't receive any formal training for this.
Thanks a lot,

With all the research done on this board I'm quite sure all the correct colors are found,
but just in case here's what I came across.
I purchased these colors a few years ago, after some tests I found that the lighter Yellow on the Right (new caterpillar yellow 41805)
is perfect for the Jet Pack and the Yellow on the Left (school bus yellow 41809) is perfect for the shoulders
and Knees. I hope Krylon still makes them.

My first view of the Great Plains came at 16, through the window of a Greyhound bus as it pulled out of Oklahoma City at daybreak. The city was like wind at our backs, pushing us toward something my Eastern eyes could not quite discern, as if the prairie were a darkened room: land stretching out endlessly, like the horizon itself. Through western Oklahoma, along the top of Texas, down into New Mexico, I waited for my eyes to adjust, to see what was really there, but as miles gathered behind us in dust, they never did.
For the past 15 years, seeing what is really there in those parts of Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico and the seven other states that comprise the Great Plains, has been the work of professors Frank and Deborah Popper. In 1987, the two New Jersey academics, he a land-use planner, she a geographer, concerned with both the depopulation of the Plains states west of the 98th meridian and the ecological impacts of human activity upon the land, suggested an alternative reality. They called it the Buffalo Commons. In its simplest formulation it meant only this: letting the land, as it emptied of people, some 139,000 square miles of it, revert back to its former self – unfenced range to buffalo and mountain cat, the country¹s biggest open-space project.
But simple ideas are often the most threatening, and when the Poppers visited those places and presented their case for the Buffalo Commons, they were met with hostility and derision. Still, they pressed on, making trip after trip to Billings and Denver and McCook and Rapid City.
And then, at some point – Frank Popper pinpoints around 1994 – the hostility began to fade. Conversations shifted from "why" to "when," from "nothing doing," to "how?"
"As the Plains continued to depopulate, it became clear that the Buffalo Commons was forming, not as we originally had in mind, with the federal government coming in as the buyer of last resort and creating a national park, but as a private activity, a local activity, a state activity and a nonprofit activity," Frank Popper says.
Private land owners began to graze buffalo, increasing their numbers in the commons area from 100,000 to over 300,000 today. The Nature Conservancy bought up failing cattle ranches in Nebraska, Colorado, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas and the Dakotas, removed the cows, brought in buffalo, and took down as many fences as it could. It now runs more than 3,000 bison over 90,000 acres and expects those numbers to rise by 1,000 animals and 15,000 acres over the next five years. Buffalo tourism has picked up: It is now possible to go on a wildlife safari in, say, Wyoming to see buffalo ranging the land, or travel to Colorado for a bison hunt. The Buffalo Commons Storytelling Festival was organized in McCook, Nebraska. A Buffalo Commons novel was published.
There is more. The InterTribal Bison Cooperative was formed by 19 Plains Indian tribes in 1990 to revive buffalo culture, a number that has grown to 51. These tribes are responsible for adding nearly 10,000 wild buffalo to Indian lands in the Plains states in the last 12 years, and for advancing the dialogue, in Congress and in their own communities, about restoring the land, wildlife habitats and tribal health. Another regional group, the Great Plains Restoration Council, with Frank Popper on its board, is equally ambitious, declaring as one of its missions: to create a "million-acre safe zone" of contiguous land, from Mexico through the Plains to Canada, for bison to range.
Nature reasserts itself: This is as true in our own backyards as it is on the Plains. But for a single idea to flower, carried like a seed on wind over hundreds of thousands of square miles, that seems more like luck than propagation. Unless that idea is right, and good, and native at its root.

I picked up playing a card game called Fluxx some time last year. Now after my recent exploration into Buddhism, I think the theme and mechanics of the game represents impermanence pretty well, at least on a superficial level.
They way the card play proceeds, the goal of the game and the rules of the game can change at a moment's notice. You may be a turn away from winning and the person ahead of you may change the goal. You may play a goal that makes the next previously desperate player a winner. A rules card may make you have to discard all the cards you collected or may prevent certain types of victories.
If you are the type of person that enjoys light-hearted social card games, Fluxx is rather fun. It comes in a variety of theme from the core game, a Family edition, a Monty Python edition, a Space themed edition and so on. Any number of the games can be combined if desired. If you try it, enjoy.... just don't become attached to the rules, your cards or the goal.

By the way, I didn't comment on the glass it's self I think you mentioned something about it. The glass shop can cut you flat safeglass in any size you want so don't worry about that.
window mech
When I was an engineer at Ford I had doors, locks and mech, for a while, sign off the design and put the tooling and labor cost on a product. The glass mechanism depends if you have an upper door frame like most trucks or if it is a convertible based design. Convertible mechanisms need the support of the glass all below the belt line , usually a larger glass or lower channel for support so it won't flop in the wind.
Good info.
I checked cboy's book. Lots of good info there that I had forgotten about.
Especially about building from the doors out. That makes a lot of sense now that I've been thinking about the complications involved.
Something just hit me as I am thinking about this walking around at work. The upper window felt channels on my truck don't have a metal channel around them, but the inside window frame pushes against them to help support them. But to tell the truth I ran my truck for a while without those mouldings and the windows went up and down fine without moving the felt window channels as they do have metal inside them.
This is the channel that I am talking about.
Automotive Window Channels - Glass Weatherstrip Scrapers - Car Weatherstripping Manufacturer UK
And how about a metal channel too!
I have never built a complete body but in making portions of the body if you have something to copy, then you simply copy it. When you are talking about functional parts like you are, this is easy, you copy an existing example. The windows you could simply copy a 32 Ford or Model A, use the same regulator and all. But you could also make it from scratch as far as simple universal channel found in the glass supply places, there are all kinds of thicknesses and and come in something like 5 foot lengths. Often they have a very stiff metal inside it so you don't even need a channel around it. At least not the whole way around. In my 48 Chevy pickup it has small metal channels down the front and rear of the door below the belt line, just simple 1/2" U shaped channel. Above that, there is nothing, the felt lined channel is screwed in with small screws thru the bottom of the channel, that's all there is above the belt line.
The regulator, just about any early car all work the same with a scissor action that can be duplicated in your home built door with just about any regulator. I put power windows in my truck back 35 years ago when there were no aftermarket stuff like this. I simply got a power window regulator out of a 63 Buick. I measured the distance on the stock regulator from the first pivot at the motor to the scissor action center pin. I cut the regulator off in half at a point in the middle, I cut the power regulator so that when I welded the original piece to it so the pivot points matched the original, then installed it with the pivot point at the same location in the door, worked perfectly.
But using the rubbers and stuff from another car and making those mounting points the same as the original car allows you to use all the engineering from the original car in your body that you designed.
Been awhile since I looked over Cboy's stuff. Probably worth another look.
Reskinning a door was one idea I had. Biggest downside is just about all the vehicles in the yards today have curved glass (necessary when using tempered glass, I presume) and the guide rails are curved to match.
But it does get you a lot of "stuff".
Been looking at compact truck and/or Jeep Cherokee doors as a potential donor for the inner section and mechanicals as their windows are about the closest to flat of anything out there right now. Would be easiest to utilize on a coupe, I'd think (haven't cut one open yet). With a ragtop/hardtop, I'm not sure how the regulators/channels would work.
eBook details
Have you read Cboy's eBook and all of his posts. Click on the eBook at the top of the page. In the old days ( The 50's for me) we used a lot of parts off our donor cars, and there were a lot of old cars left out in the brush, free parts, where everyone dumped their trash. A guy I know worked at a custom shop in L A, they would remove the metal skin from the donor body and make and install custom fiberglass skin to the body sub structure. that way you had all the inner workings. wiring, steering, brakes, already there.
Scratch building details - doors, windows, etc.
Don't know about the rest of you, but sometimes I get a project in my head and I go over it up there for months, working out all the details. Usually, I end up abandoning it, but not always.
Anyhow, I've got a project bouncing around involving a scratch built body. Something in an early 30s style, but nothing that could be identified as an existing model. Still undecided if it would be coupe, roadster, or maybe RPU. Probably end up in fiberglass just because of the cost and my experience.
But one big area that I'm not able to really work out in my brain are some of the more mundane details.
Like putting glass in the doors.
Flat glass is probably easiest unless you could find something exactly the right size. But that's the easy part. What about window regulators, window channels, weatherstripping around the opening and along the outer door edge where it meets the window?
How about weatherstripping around the door area, or along the top of the window and windshield on a ragtop?
Looking at a production vehicle - all that stuff is very well thought out and it drives a lot of the little details of the body, but when you're scratch building, it would seem you need to know what sorts of assemblies and materials are going to be used in order to incorporate them into the body work up front.
And I think a lot of this is applicable when seriously customizing an existing body, or one where parts are no longer available to replace the originals.
So, how do you guys deal with these details? What sorts of parts/products do you find yourself using over and over? Any tips and tricks?

With the evolution of digital touchpoints, banks have mastered right channeling to drive customers to lower cost digital channels for self-service. As customer adoption of digital channels is in full force and customers are calling and visiting branches less, banks are looking for innovative ways to inject a human touch into their digital channels. Specifically, banks need to focus on identifying high value interactions and directing customers to the right channel, for the right interaction, at the right time. In order to be successful, the strategy must be more than slapping an 800 number online and saying "here's my number…call me, maybe". Bank Hapoalim, one of Israel's largest banks, recognized the strategic implications of limited customer interaction and implemented a strategy to inject a human touch into digital banking to meet the needs of high-value digital banking customers. The strategy focused on:

Take an adventure holiday in Iran with World Expeditions, one of the world's leading travel companies.
Seventy million people inhabit this country which is nearly the size of Queensland (Australia) or a fifth of the United States. It is dominated by three mountain ranges – the fertile and volcanic Sabalan and Talesh ranges, the Zagros range which the runs along the western border and the Alborz range, to the North of Tehran and home to the highest mountain – Damavand (5670m).The Alborz range also has the largest area of vegetation in Iran and the northern slopes are densely covered with deciduous trees.These ranges are also home to many mammals including wolf, jackal, wild boar, hyena, black bear and lynx.The lowlands are inhabited by Persian squirrels, mongoose, Persian gazelle, porcupine, badger and Iranian wild ass. However perhaps the most famous of creatures is the Alborz red sheep with its long black beard and spiralling horns.
Ninety percent of the population practice Iran's brand of fundamentalist Shi'ite Islam and this will be noticed by travellers by the modest dress code and the behaviour at mosques. All Iranian and foreign females appearing in public should cover their head and wear a dress that covers the body except the face, toes and hands. Men are advised not to wear short sleeves and short pants are strictly forbidden – refer pre-departure notes for full details on dress requirements.
Iran has a long history of almost 7000 years since the Aryans emigrated here and gave their name to the land and called it "land of Aryans" or Iran. Achaemenid appeared in 550BC and was the first unified dynasty and until it was conquered by Alexander of Macedonia in 330BC, Iran prospered as the "Great Persian Empire" for more than 2 centuries. There are many landmarks left from the Achaemenian period, most notably in Persepolis. Many other dynasties and monarchies succeeded the country until the Pahlavi, which was demolished in 1979 by the Islamic Revolution, changing Iran from a constitutional monarchy to a republic. There is an enormous diversity of ethnic types in Iran, the majority are descendants of the Aryan tribes.

Ryuhei Kitamura, director of The Midnight Meat Train, delivers this twisting tale of terror concerning a missing heiress, a gang of vicious bandits, and a vacationing couple who aren't what they seem. In the wake of a bloodbath that left 14 students dead, wealthy heiress Emma (Adelaide Clemens) has vanished without a trace. A few months later, a young couple (Luke Evans and Laura Ramsey) cross paths with the ruthless Hoag (Lee Tergesen) and his band of thieves, who run them off of the road in a violent robbery attempt. When Hoag and his crew learn that the mysterious couple has taken Emma hostage, they assume they'll be collecting a handsome reward. Little do they realize they've just gotten in deep over their heads, and as the body count spikes, the real fight for survival begins. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Ray Wylie Hubbard
While in Red River, Hubbard rekindled his friendship with Walker, who in 1973 recorded Hubbard's most famous (if least representative) composition, "Up Against the Wall, Redneck Mother," on his acclaimed Viva Terlingua LP. The success of the album guaranteed Hubbard instant cult status within progressive country circles, and at the same time, he set about organizing a new backing band, dubbed the Cowboy Twinkies. Considered by many the first cowpunk group -- their regular set lists included everything from Merle Haggard songs to a show-stopping cover of Led Zeppelin's "Communication Breakdown" -- the Cowboy Twinkies' music met considerable resistance in both country and rock quarters; frustrated, Hubbard funded a demo tape that won the group a contract with Atlantic. However, the label left the band in limbo, and they finally jumped ship to Warner Bros., which shipped them off to Nashville to record their debut LP, Ray Wylie Hubbard & the Cowboy Twinkies.
Released in 1975, the album suffered from label-imposed over-production and fared poorly; Hubbard did not resurface prior to 1978, when he signed to Willie Nelson's short-lived Lone Star imprint to record Off the Wall, which contained his own version of "Redneck Mother." The following year Hubbard acquired a new backing unit in the form of the Lost Gonzo Band, previously Walker's supporting group; comprising guitarist John Inmon, bassist Bob Livingston, and drummer Paul Pearcy, they recorded the live LP Caught in the Act. By 1984, Hubbard was backed by the Bugs Henderson Trio, which featured guitarist Henderson, bassist Bobby Chitwood, and drummer Ron Thompson; with them he cut another live effort, Something About the Night.
Hubbard didn't record for another eight years, instead building a small but loyal following through constant touring. Finally, he issued Lost Train of Thought on his own Misery Loves Co. label in 1992, followed in 1995 by the Dejadisc release Loco Gringos Lament. Dangerous Spirits appeared two years later, and in 1999 Hubbard returned with Crusades of the Restless Nights. Eternal & Lowdown, which was issued in summer 2001, captured the haunting poetics of religion, philosophy, and salvation. It was followed in 2003 by the raw and gripping Growl, the laid-back Delirium Tremolos in 2005, and Snake Farm in 2006. Hubbard's near constant touring schedule and curating his own Grit 'N' Groove Festival in 2009 and 2010 kept him busy. He eventually emerged with A. Enlightenment B. Endarkenment (Hint: There Is No C) in 2011, and followed it up with The Grifter's Hymnal in 2012. In April 2015, Hubbard released another self-produced set, The Ruffian's Misfortune, which like his previous two albums was released through his own Bordello Records imprint. Later in 2015, Hubbard was slated to publish his long-awaited autobiography, A Life...Well, Lived. ~ Jason Ankeny

Lorain man sentenced for having illegal guns
(Cleveland) - A Lorain man with an illegal private arsenal has been sentenced to more than six years in prison.
32-year-old Jose Romero had pleaded guilty to being a felon in possession of firearms.
Romero was found to have 40 pistols, rifles and revolvers earlier this year despite having a 2005 conviction in Lorain County for domestic violence.
"This office places a high priority on keeping firearms out of the hands of those who are forbidden by law from obtaining them," said Steven M. Dettelbach, United States Attorney for the Northern District of Ohio. "Whether it is a person using a gun to commit a violent crime, a felon illegally obtaining a firearm or a straw purchaser trying to circumvent the law, we will aggressively pursue those who would violate our nation's firearms laws."
U.S. District Judge James Gwin sentenced Romero to 80 months in prison.
Romero told a confidential informant that he was interested in purchasing large numbers of firearms in an effort to influence their availability in Lorain, according to court documents.
The information indicated that Romero stores many of his firearms inside a safe inside his grandmother's residence on Charleston Avenue in Lorain. Law enforcement officers subsequently searched Romero's home on East 31st Street and the Charleston Avenue home on Feb. 26, 2013, according to court documents.
Investigators found firearms, marijuana and cocaine at the East 31st Street residence and a safe with 28 firearms at the Charleston Avenue residence, as well as marijuana, according to the court documents.

To enable enterprises, governments, and other organizations to counter the new breed of attacks, McAfee and Intel collaborated to produce a next-generation IPS appliance. McAfee Network Security Platform NS-series is built on the Intel Xeon processor E5 family platform, which means it has ample compute power to stay ahead of the constant flood of attacks. The appliance uses high bus speeds and solid-state storage to inspect traffic so quickly that the process is unnoticeable to employees and other end users.
The Network Security Platform 7.5 release features include advanced malware analysis, deep file analysis, advanced bot detection, and progressive-disclosure interfaces. Because networks will remain attractive targets, McAfee Network Security Platform 7.5 ultimately is an investment in both the present and the future.

Re: Tartan(s), Sabre, Pearson(s), C&C(s), Catalina(s) - "Chesapeake Draft"
Went and looked at a Sabre 34 MKI today in Annapolis. Very nice boat, but I don't think it hit the "love it" button after being on a Pearson 34 (83-86) not the 34-2. Nicely made, that's obvious, but felt almost the same size and layout as my P30. P30 beam is 9.5' and the Sabre is 10.5, but the benches looked smaller. This one had a suspicious bow that had a redone painted on non-skid (looked like Interlux) on the entire bow, and the rest of the non-skid was the diamond pattern. The bow felt "soft and squeaked", so think it's moist. Boat has been on the hard for 3 years. I'm sure it would be nice, but since it didn't seem much different from the P30, don't see the reason to change to the Sabre MKI if it doesn't feel much different (and this one had a redone floor/core, bilge was nasty/oily, and the windows obviously leaked (big stains, that were brownish from the obvious re-do of the teak (stained or sanded bare, but not sealed......they said). You'd think you would at least want it to show better if you were selling it.
Contacted the surveyor who did the survey on the Michigan P34 CB 2 years ago. Also called about the Baltimore P34 (5'11" fin) just because it's close by and maybe I can get on it while the Sabre 34 memory is fresh and really compare the "feel".
I'd like to get on board a P33-2 and compare the feel of that one too.
@Mr. F - since you have a 5'11 fin (or 5'9) and I can't go that high, would you still be willing to let me come visit and get a feel?
Found out the marina I'm at (behind the RR bridge in Perryville, MD) will have a limit, on average, of 50' air from DWL. It was a very low tide yesterday and the bridge had 53-54' of clearance.
Problem: Pearson 34 is 48.75' (add 3' antenna)=51.75'; Sabre is about 50' with antenna, so is P33-2 give or take.
That means I am limited to low tide departures and arrivals - and I absolutely don't want to have to work around that again. Where I was last year, I couldn't sail on low tide with 5' draft. Now, it might be different marina and RR bridge. One reason I like the CBs is the draft, so may have to go back to last years marina (no height issues).
These limiters really mess up my sailing time, since I have to go when I can (driven by a 4 year old and her schedule!) and work.
Still waiting for the Insurance turkeys.
Re: Tartan(s), Sabre, Pearson(s), C&C(s), Catalina(s) - "Chesapeake Draft"
Moved from Carlsbad, CA three years ago after being there, and working in San Diego for 8 years. Sailed out of Oceanside or San Diego Harbor. The Admiral was stationed in Bremerton for 4 years, and (before I knew her), I travelled often to Seattle on Navy business. Lovely area, brother-in-law and family in Portland, OR area.........a bit to wet for us I think
Thanks for all the info on the Engine, Moisture, etc. I just had the Broker take me on-board the boat so I could see the interior. Similar feel to the P-30 in "elbow room", but definitely a modern layout, I like it.
Still want to focus on 33-2 and P34, but cash may prevent it, so 31-2 is a very comfortable option. It's just the idea of going from 30' to 30' (albeit much more modern) that keeps me holding on that concept.
Keep in touch on your info and the thread.......you have alot of info that I'm finding most helpful.

Re: Tartan(s), Sabre, Pearson(s), C&C(s), Catalina(s) - "Chesapeake Draft"
I happened to read the top of this page and noted that you appear to be moving to a better sailing climate. You considered as far away as California. If you are considering that you might as well consider the Pacific NW. We have no skinny water issues, an inland water system that is as large as the Chesapeake with world class cruising destinations, and great year round sailing with pretty mild temps summer and winter. The wildlife is wonderful here too, just outside of Shilshole Marina (in Seattle) I see porpoises, seals, and sea lions on almost every sail, Orca whales a few times a year, and the salmon have been jumping like crazy for the last few months. It's a bit damp in the winter, but warm enough in good foulies. I don't know anyone who pulls their boat here for the winter.
Moisture: It sounds like that boat does have problems. I wouldn't buy a boat that had moisture issues along the whole deck. At the same time I wouldn't say that it is an endemic issue among Pearsons. I've read other stories of moisture issues just under the toe rail being common on Pearsons, and can explain why that happens.
Diesel: I don't know on engine hours. My engine (stock engine in Pearson 28-2) didn't even come with an hour meter, which made me suspect of meters on other boats with the same engine (Yanmar 2GM20F) which did have them since the meters apparently aren't stock. I could add an engine meter today that claimed my boat had 1000 hours, and that would just be a lie. None of the boats that I looked at had engine meters higher than about 3000 hours.
One way that I can think of it is that 10,000 miles per year on a car is about 350 engine hours at average car speeds of just under 30mph. I wouldn't be excited about the engine a car that had done 323,000 miles in a car (about the equivalent of your 11,320 hours). On the other hand such a boat probably has rigging in amazing shape because it sounds like it was almost never sailed (or the overall boat is extremely tired because it was sailed and cruised every single day). I cruised for 7 weeks this summer and used my boat at least once a week the rest of the year and still put under 200 hours on the engine this year (measured by keeping track of fuel consumed).
Replacing engine mounts on a Yanmar isn't that major of a project. The engine mounts themselves are silly expensive ($100+ ea if I remember correctly). You need to support the engine while removing the old and installing the new ones, then realign the shaft. The engine mount is made with two steel plates that are bonded to a rubber elasometer in the middle. That rubber eventually dries out and fails. A friend with a 1987 boat and Yanmar 3GM30F just replaced his. I have a 1986 2GM20F, don't know if mine are original or not, but they are appear to be in good shape.
Re: Tartan(s), Sabre, Pearson(s), C&C(s), Catalina(s) - "Chesapeake Draft"
Again, you have given me good info, especially since I do have a preference for Pearson's. The one boat in question had the moisture meter "almost pegged" to the right side of the meter for that full 8-10 (and sometimes 12") out from the edge. The broker seemed to be pretty on the level, and said the boat had acknowledged moisture issues, but "you could probably get 10 years out of it before you had to replace the core/face delamination".. I did ask the guy who re-Awlgripped my P-30 and is a certified repair guy, and he said, "don't even think about it"......so that, and the rest of the info, lead me to start asking the more specific questions of "how bad is bad"......or "what is "bad"". That boat was otherwise really well cared for and owned by the same couple (70's/80's) who are retiring from sailing due to age. but the deck issue was the finality on that specific boat.
All, I guess my pricing erspective was influenced by a conversation I had with Bill Shaw, Jr (yes, his son) about 1 1/2 months ago. He is a broker out of Rhode Island and my understanding of his boat offer comment was 30% of asking price is a good starting point (40% if you want), and many boats will sell for that, especially in this economy......I don't want to have Bill get any backlash, but that's what I noted he said......of course, it can also be personal situation dependent too..
So, I'm thinking I can get a nice boat, that's listed in the 30's for in the 20's, but maybe I'm just dreamin' and it's not that way at all. So, that's why I'm asking so many price questions.
Acknowledged: Condition, equipment, all good points.
Question: Never have owned a diesel. Overall, What is considered low, medium, and high hours? A 33-2 in Mystic (sold) had, no kidding 11,320 hours, and they lowered the asking price about $3,500 for a rebuild, but said the engine ran excellent.
I know diesels can keep going "forever", but where does the knee in the curve start for "high", generally speaking.
Also read motor mounts on 33-2 can go bad and need replacement, any gouge on how to know about that?

Re: Tartan(s), Sabre, Pearson(s), C&C(s), Catalina(s) - "Chesapeake Draft"
The toe rail holds mud directly under the rail. That teak toe rail has a 1/4" deep concave cut under it that holds dirt/mud. The plastic cover that wraps around the hull deck joint under the toe rail is about 1.5" to 2" wide and can also hold dirt, but not as much of it. It won't cause high moisture readings 8-10" in from the toe rail, that would be cause for concern. I don't know how accurate these moisture meters are though, how fine of a line do they really find?
I don't see how the Pearson stanchion installation would be more or less likely to cause deck dampness than any other boat in this price range though. As far as I know no manufacturers in this price range were glassing around the core in all deck holes.
I have no specific knowledge of the 31-2, I've just taken apart my 28-2 and inferred from photos online than the 31-2 and 33-2 and most other mid-80s Pearsons were assembled the same way (outward facing flange, lower trim that you remove with phillips screws, larger #14 screws holding teak toe rain, then 5/16" machine screws on roughly 6" centers holding the deck to the hull). If you search my recent posts I made one with photos in it showing how it is assembled.
What's the right price takes research and introspection. Don't just look at the same boat, look at what you'd get for similar prices on similar boats in a similar market. If you have preferences towards one boats layout or other features then consider that in your offer.
As an example of a personal preference: I had a strong preference for the <30' overall length of the Pearson 28-2 because moorage rates at my marina jump by 20% when going from a 30' slip to a 34' slip, and my marina includes bow pulpit and anchor in overall length. The slightly shorter length (29.5 including bow pulpit) of the 28-2 made it $1000/year less in moorage fees compared to 30' boats (C&C 30, Islander 30, CS 30) that I was interested in while the boat had similar PHRF and an interior layout that I preferred. Someone keeping a boat on a mooring ball wouldn't have this concern. As a result I was okay spending a little more on this boat than the others (through it was only slightly more expensive than the C&C 30, and less than the CS 30). I didn't like the lack of a quarterberth in the C&C 30, and my wife didn't like some recent interior upgrades on it, so we would have made a much lower offer on that boat.
How I came up with a price: I felt like that by looking at enough 30' boats and talking to other friends who had recently been in the market that I had a pretty good understanding of what I should offer. I couldn't make many direct purchase comparisons, my boat is not at all common on the west coast, and prices on the east coast appear to have little in common with prices over here. I thought my seller's asking price was pretty good if the boat had an autopilot and a newer plotter. It had neither and a few small things came up in the survey. I bought it for about 10% under his asking price, which covered the survey issues and missing autopilot and most of a new GPS.
Direct comparisons are hard to make anyway, even for the same model. We're talking about boats that are almost 30 years old, and it's unlikely that any 2 of them have been maintained and upgraded exactly the same way. I personally don't find NADA estimates to be very useful, especially on the smaller size boats that I've owned.
Re: Tartan(s), Sabre, Pearson(s), C&C(s), Catalina(s) - "Chesapeake Draft"
Check NADA and BoatUS. Both should give you average selling prices for boats in average condition. Then you can adjust up or down based in the specifics of the boat in question. For example, If the engine was just rebuilt, that's worth something (maybe $2-4000). By contrast, if the jib and main are rotten or torn beyond repair, I'd knock off $1000-1500.
That strategy at least gives you a rational basis for an offer, rather than just going based on asking price.
Re: Tartan(s), Sabre, Pearson(s), C&C(s), Catalina(s) - "Chesapeake Draft"
OK, OK!! I give up Good points both of you, seriously. and Alex, your information on the moisture/toe rail is priceless.....this is the first I've seen/heard it explained that way and that makes my looking a whole lot easier for that boat. I hope I can afford the 33-2, but not sure if I can. The 31-2 (according to threads, did have a bigger moisture problem, as I noted the one I looked at in Havre de Grace, MD has moisture 8-10" in from the toe rail.
@Alex - Is that still the joint and mud/dirt, or do the 31-2's have a bigger problem?
@Jim - ok....I get it.
The question is: What is a P33-2, a P31-2, P34 and Sabre 34 CB (MkI) really going to sell for if they are all in "good" condition. Prices are all over the map, and in some cases (personal experience here) we price things where we would like them to be, not what they really should be.
Price ranges, that is "purchase prices" for those boats in good condition?

Re: Algorithm Analysis Course: Should I use Mathematica for projects?
But there is a difference between developing and analyzing an algorithm and
running an algorithm on a particular machine. Unless one is going to do
empirical algorithmics Mathematica might still bring much better
capabilities to the subject matter.

An example.
Create 3 arrays.
Try updating the 50th element of each of these items, which look like arrays
in Mathematica.
Timing [A[[50]],{i,0,100000}]
Timing [B[[50]],{i,0,100000}]
Timing [Q[[50]],{i,0,100000}]
On my computer, these results take
0.266 seconds, 0.453 seconds, and 2.25 seconds,
So, for the prize, tell me which is the fastest, and which is the slowest?
Or more to the point, can you explain to your computer science professor why
this is so?
Now, instead of creating these guys as what appears to be arrays, one uses
How does that change the results?
Note that the documentation says. that "Array[f,n] generates a list of
length n with elements f[i]. Of course that is not really a list.
experimenting with Append and Prepend might be amusing too.

"I decided that the brown sugar topping might be a bit of overkill, as I was serving a ham with a brown sugar glaze as well. So I left the topping off and just baked the stuffed sweet potato skins "naked." Very good!"

Easy to use wireless headphones
During his tenure as a Crutchfield staff writer, Marshall Chase wrote about home theater receivers, sound bars, and in-wall and in-ceiling speakers.
More from Marshall Chase
Heads up!Welcome to this article from the Crutchfield archives. Have fun reading it, but be aware that the information may be outdated and links may be broken.
Welcome to another in the "Easy to use" series of posts about electronics that people like my 85-year old Mom would use and enjoy greatly and without fear.
So why wireless headphones? Well, I have frequently gone into Mom's living room and heard the volume of the TV turned up high enough for people in adjoining states to hear it. TV speakers aren't the best for sound reproduction to begin with. Add in the diminished ability of aging ears to hear audio details clearly, and you've got a situation that's a problem for a lot of people, not just my Mom. My time as a Crutchfield Product Advisor also taught me that people in a household sometimes have disagreements over the TV volume, or someone wants to watch something while someone else wants to sleep. So there are times when using headphones with a TV works great for both the listener and the non-listener.
I think Mom will enjoy the freedom of movement that comes with wireless headphones. Not only can she sit as far away from the TV as she likes but she can run to the kitchen for a snack. The "wireless" feature eliminates that distressing "head tug" but it also means Mom can keep up with the game show while pickle hunting.
1. Sennheiser RS-180 wireless headphones
Over the years wireless headphones have become more comfortable to wear, higher in sound fidelity than ever, and they're fairly easy to manage where batteries are concerned. I think Mom would love the Sennheiser RS-180 wireless headphones.
The sound quality on these headphones is magnificent (read Ralph's review: Sennheiser RS-180 wireless headphones — wi-fidelity.) The headphone transmitter connects easily to most any television or other device with included plugs. In addition to having no wires to trip over (a pet peeve for my Mom and me), the headphones weigh less than 8 oz. so they're comfortable to wear for long periods of time. And with a range of over 100 yards, Mom can go out for a long pass into the end zone and not miss the Giant's game (just kidding, Mom).
The RS-180s can run up to 24 hours without a charge, but I'm recommending Mom set them in their cradle every time when she's done. This way, not only do the batteries stay charged, but she'll always know where to find them. If she sets them down but turns off the TV, the headphones shut themselves off after 5 minutes, so the batteries don't get drained.
2. Sony MDR-RF970RK wireless headphones
Another pair of great wireless headphones is the Sony MDR-RF970RK.
These headphones have good sound quality and are easy to connect to your TV or receiver with included wires for the transmitter. They begin charging as soon as they are placed in the cradle and don't turn on until they're put on the ears. They have an easy-to-use rotary volume control. Their rechargeable batteries supply up to 14 hours of continuous play time (for those Frank Sinatra movie marathons) and have a range of up to 150 feet, so Mom can go way across the condo and not miss a croon.
3. Sennheiser SET 840 TV S wireless TV listening system
Another excellent set of headphones is the Sennheiser SET 840 TV S.
The "stethoscope" style has real style appeal in addition to comfort, light weight (less than 2-1/2 oz.) and top-notch sound quality. I think Mom would say that their most important feature is that they won't mess up her latest hair-do. They can also be used trouble-free by people who wear hearing aids. I like that these headphones can be tuned for hearing dialog best, something that elders frequently have trouble with. You can even add a second set of headphones in case there is a difference of opinion regarding volume. The Sennheiser SET 840 TV S is easy to connect to your TV and plays for about 9 hours between charges.

I recently purchased a set of M.O.W. ROTJ gauntlets (used),
I noticed a small hairline crack in the fiberglass on the right gauntlet...well it has spread!!
The crack is due to slightly squeezing the gauntlets to release the velcro.
Is there a better way to put on/ take off, to avoid the gauntlet splitting in half?
I ran a bead of glue along the inside w/ a small, needle like, fine brush.

text: While mites appeared to be virtually non-existant in several of my hives I decided to treat 2 of them that had produced a few during a series of weekly sugar shakes back in August. The results have been a bit unsettling; in both hives the earlier mite counts had been minimal, never more than 5 to 10 and sometimes none. Since the thymol treatments (2 treatments in Sept and early Oct) mites have been falling onto the sticky boards in large numbers and they're still falling - is this typical of a thymol treatment?

I have seen the layout and hybrid boats guys on here have built, and I think they are excellent. Enough so that I want to try and build one. This all is a preface to a bass boat rebuild that I will eventually do. I want to get a small working knowledge in fiberglass before I decide to split a hull and replace stringers in a big boat. I plan on building a modified lake erie style boat. When I go home, I have the opportunity to hunt large reservoirs, so the layout style would be ideal in that setting, but where I live, I can move from marsh to strip pit, so I think this style boat would be the most versitle. The boat will be pulled by my 1652, so some sort of a transom isnt an issue right now. I have emailed the guys at marsh-monster.com for some pictures. Apparently they have a v style planing hull as an option to their plans. If anyone knows what a carolina flare looks like, I will have a similar style flare, albeit much shorter.
Has anyone dealt with the people at marsh-monster?

ROCHESTER, N.Y. - Midfielder Paul Rabil scored four goals, including three in the first half, and added two assists as the Boston Cannons (4-1) opened their four-game road trip with a 16-14 Major League Lacrosse victory over the Rochester Rattlers (0-4) at Sahlen's Stadium on Saturday evening.
The win allowed the Cannons to remain tied for first place in the MLL standings with Denver, which posted a 15-7 victory over Hamilton on Saturday night. Meanwhile, the Rattlers remain the only team in the MLL this season without a victory.
After rookie attackman Jordan McBride gave the Rattlers a 1-0 lead just under three minutes into the first quarter, the Cannons took a 2-1 advantage on back-to-back goals by attackman Matt Poskay and defenseman Jack Reid.
The Rattlers tied the game at 2-2 when midfielder Jordan Levine scored off a feed from midfielder Matt Striebel, but the Cannons responded by scoring three straight goals, including a pair of Rabil markers, to take a 5-2 lead at the end of the first quarter.
But, the Rattlers responded by opening the second quarter with four straight goals, including a goal and an assist from Levine and McBride, to take a 6-5 lead with 6:36 left in the period.
After Rabil tied the game with his third goal of the game, the Rattlers used goals from McBride and midfielder Anthony Kelly to take an 8-6 lead at the intermission.
The teams traded goals to open the third quarter before Rabil and attackman Max Quinzani tallied consecutive goals to tie the game at 9-9 with 11:33 remaining in the stanza.
Attackman Ned Crotty scored an unassisted goal to regain the Rattlers' lead to 10-9, but the Cannons ended the third quarter by scoring four consecutive goals to take a 13-10 advantage. Quinzani led the Cannons with a goal and an assist during the spurt.
Poskay upped the Cannons' lead to 14-10 just 31 seconds into the fourth quarter, but the Rattlers answered by scoring four straight points, including a two-point goal by Striebel, to tie the game at 14-14 with 5:04 left in regulation.
But, the Cannons got goals from Quinzani and Heim in a two-minute span to regain a two-point lead they did not relinquish.
While Rabil led the Cannons with his six-point effort to earn Bud Light Player of the Game honors, Poskay scored a game-high five goals for Boston. Heim added two goals while attackman Ryan Boyle had two assists.
Goalkeeper Jordan Burke, who entered the game as the MLL leader in save percentage and goals against average, made 11 of his 16 saves in the first half.
Making his MLL debut, McBride led the Rattlers with four goals and two assists while Striebel scored a two-point goal with two assists.
The Rattlers outshot Boston by a 50-44 margin and had a 30-28 advantage in ground balls.

text: Fantastic pics!! I like how you combined the landing boards with the labeling process. Since your labels are not on your hive boxes, if you ever want to exchange boxes with different hives, you don't have to keep track of which colony is in which box as long as you place them on the right stand once you've exchanged them. Does that make sense, or only in my poor little mind?

The Dual Language Program at University of St. Thomas School of Education will screen the winner of the audience award from San Francisco International Film Festival, Speaking in Tongues at 6 on Feb. 28 in Ahern room, Crooker center, 3909 Graustark St.
This documentary video follows four diverse American kids on a challenging journey to become bilingual. Kelly, a Chinese-American girl, regains her grandparent's native language; Jason, a Mexican-American boy, develops professional level Spanish while mastering English; Durrell, an African-American boy, learns to read, write and speak Mandarin; and Julian, a Caucasian teen, travels to Beijing to stay with a Mandarin speaking host family.
Dr. Ginny Torres-Rimbau, chair of bilingual and dual language programs at UST, invited 70 people to attend the video screening then participate in a discussion about how important it is to become bilingual. Bilingualism provides these kids more than an opportunity to join the global job market. It offers smooth communication with their grandparents, their foreign friends. They are becoming global citizens.
"Some of UST graduate and undergraduate students, some of UST professors and a group of elementary schools teachers in Houston will engage in a debate after the video screening titled "What does it mean to be bilingual?" Rimbau said.
The Dual Program at UST aims to train teachers to use their bilingual skills to teach linguistically diverse populations. This approach enables students to have many opportunities after graduation, especially those who are seeking to teach abroad after college.

AMHERST, Mass. - The University of Richmond Spiders baseball team used a balanced offensive attack and a six-run fifth inning to defeat the Massachusetts Minutemen on Saturday afternoon, 13-8. With the win, Richmond improves to 22-21 on the season and to 9-8 in Atlantic 10 conference play. With the loss, UMass falls to 18-17 on the year and to 10-7 in league action.
Senior Chris Cowell had a great day for the Spiders, hitting a pair of home runs while tying his season-high with six RBIs. Classmate Bryan Conway had three hits on the afternoon, while seniors Adam McConnell and Phil Ruzbarsky drove in two runs each and had two hits.
Redshirt junior Matt Zink, sophomore Mike Small, and freshman Joey Vecchione each had a RBI, while sophomore Adam Forrer had two hits and scored three times. On the afternoon, the Spiders plated their 13 runs on 16 hits, with eight different players collecting at least one hit and eight others scoring runs.
On the mound, sophomore Andrew Blum (6-2) was solid for the Spiders, going six innings. Blum allowed six runs, but only three were earned, while striking out a pair. Out of the bullpen, junior Jolmi Minaya and freshman Ray Harron each pitched scoreless innings.
After UMass took an early, 2-0 lead in the bottom of the first, the Spiders responded in the top of the second. After a walk, an infield single, and a hit-by-pitch, the bases were loaded for Vecchione. Swinging at the second pitch, Vecchione cut the lead in half with a sacrifice fly to right field.
Three batters later, the bases were once again loaded after a single and a walk, this time for McConnell. On a 2-0 count, McConnell earned a painful RBI, plating a run after getting hit by a pitch. Ruzbarsky then gave the Spiders the lead, drawing a five-pitch walk to push across the third run of the frame.
The Richmond lead would not last long, however, as UMass scored one run in the bottom of the second to tie the game. Then in the third, the Minutemen pushed across three unearned runs to take a 6-3 lead over the Spiders.
After a Cowell sacrifice fly cut the lead to 6-4 in the top of the fourth, Richmond exploded in the fifth. With one run already in on an UMass error, Zink tied the game with a perfectly placed bunt single down the first-base line, scoring sophomore Adam Forrer from third.
Two batters later, the bases were loaded for Ruzbarsky with just one out. The senior gave the Spiders the lead with a sacrifice fly to center field, putting runners on first and second with two away. Cowell followed his classmate to the plate, delivering a huge blow to the Minutemen. On a 1-1 count, Cowell crushed a long fly ball over the left-field fence for a three-run home run. Cowell's Atlantic 10-leading 15th home run of the season gave the Spiders a 10-6 lead after five full.
A McConnell RBI single in the top of the sixth pushed the advantage to 11-6, only for Massachusetts to cut the lead back to four runs with a score in the bottom of the frame, 11-7.
In the top of the seventh, Cowell was back at it, extending the Spider lead with another long ball. On a 1-0 pitch, the senior catcher blasted the offering deep over the left-field fence for his 16th homer of the season. Cowell's third multi-home run game of the season gave Richmond a 13-7 lead.
UMass would score a run in the eighth to cut the lead to five but it would not nearly be enough as Richmond evened the series with the Minutemen with a 13-8 victory.
The Richmond Spiders baseball team will wrap up its three-game series with the Massachusetts Minutemen on Sunday afternoon. First pitch in Amherst is scheduled for 12 p.m.
