FAQ on climate models
We discuss climate models a lot, and from the comments here and in other forums it's clear that there remains a great deal of confusion about what climate models do and how their results should be interpreted. This post is designed to be a FAQ for climate model questions – of which a few are already given. If you have comments or other questions, ask them as concisely as possible in the comment section and if they are of enough interest, we'll add them to the post so that we can have a resource for future discussions. (We would ask that you please focus on real questions that have real answers and, as always, avoid rhetorical excesses).
Part II is here.
Quick definitions:
- GCM – General Circulation Model (sometimes Global Climate Model) which includes the physics of the atmosphere and often the ocean, sea ice and land surface as well.
- Simulation – a single experiment with a GCM
- Initial Condition Ensemble – a set of simulations using a single GCM but with slight perturbations in the initial conditions. This is an attempt to average over chaotic behaviour in the weather.
- Multi-model Ensemble – a set of simulations from multiple models. Surprisingly, an average over these simulations gives a better match to climatological observations than any single model.
- Model weather – the path that any individual simulation will take has very different individual storms and wave patterns than any other simulation. The model weather is the part of the solution (usually high frequency and small scale) that is uncorrelated with another simulation in the same ensemble.
- Model climate – the part of the simulation that is robust and is the same in different ensemble members (usually these are long-term averages, statistics, and relationships between variables).
- Forcings – anything that is imposed from the outside that causes a model's climate to change.
- Feedbacks – changes in the model that occur in response to the initial forcing that end up adding to (for positive feedbacks) or damping (negative feedbacks) the initial response. Classic examples are the amplifying ice-albedo feedback, or the damping long-wave radiative feedback.

"We used this card for our business Christmas Card. We were able to add logos, a personal message, and choose a paper/envelope style. We went with the matte card and paid extra for the gold envelopes- they look great, personal and expensive. We liked them so much that we had more shipped out at a later date and they came in the two days as promised! Will definitely use Tiny Prints in the future!"
"Snowmen are an adorable way to send holiday greetings, especially when they are wearing bright red hats and mittens. For those companies who want to send a light heated holiday greeting that will bring smiles to all the recipients faces' this is a great card choice.

New, shorter concealed handgun class set for Dec. 7 at SPC
LEVELLAND – South Plains College will offer the new, shorter Concealed Handgun License course on Saturday (Dec. 7) in Room 115 of the Law Enforcement Building.
Classes will begin at 8 a.m., and will include breaks every hour and a one-hour break for lunch. The classroom portion will be completed by 3 p.m., and the length of the range portion will depend on the number of students.
The cost is $70 for students seeking their first license, and $25 for students wanting a refresher course before renewing their license. Although renewals now are handled strictly online, the15 or more changes in Texas firearms law this summer make a refresher course a good investment.
The course covers the laws pertaining to concealed carry and to the use of force or deadly force. Safe gun handling and storage, including storage with children in the home, will be covered as well as non-violent dispute resolution.
Students will need a handgun and 50 rounds of ammunition. They must pass a 25 question written test, and demonstrate safe and proficient gun handling, scoring at least 70 percent on a shooting test at distances ranging from three to 15 yards. Inexperienced shooters might want to take the N.R.A. Basic Pistol course before taking the CHL course.
Students need to call Kasey Reyes at 716-2341 or email her at email@example.com to enroll. Because of the range requirements, space is limited.

Tesla Model S Performance Slays BMW M5 in Acceleration Test

Tesla Model S Performance (L) and BMW M5 (R)
(Source: Automobile Magazine)
Tesla's Model S is no joke
Some people have plenty of doubts about Tesla Motors and the Model S. The company is still struggling to
get production numbers up and is battling its way to profitability
. And the fact that federal money is being used to
fund a $7,500 tax credit
for the purchase of a $100,000 vehicle doesn't sit well with a lot of people.
However, there's no question that Tesla Motors has developed a remarkable car in the Model S. From its sexy exterior looks to its high-tech interior, the Model S aims to impress. And now, we're still learning that the five-door hatchback has some
serious performance credentials backing it up as well
Automobile Magazine
pitted a fresh
Model S Performance
against BMW's new F10 M5. The BMW M5 ($106,695) is powered by a twin-turbo V8 engine developing a whopping 560hp and 500 lb-ft of torque (this is backed by a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission). The Model S Performance ($102,270) has a rear-mounted motor that generates 416hp and 443 lb-ft of torque.
When the two were set on the drag strip for a 0-100 mph race, the 4,640-pound Model S Performance simply walked away from the 4,347-pound M5 off the line. This stellar performance is no doubt attributed to the electric car's instant torque that is available from 0 to 5,800 RPM.
The M5 narrowed the lead towards the end of the run, but there's no question that the Model S bested BMW's high-echelon performance sedan in this particular test. However, this is just one test, and we'd like to see a complete head-to-head comparison between the two vehicles in the usual battery of acceleration, braking, and handling metrics.
To see the Model S go up against the M5, take a look at the video below:

Mac OS X Strike Force
From HaskellWiki
Revision as of 19:06, 6 September 2010 by ChrisKuklewicz (Talk | contribs)
The following is a wiki page to centralize discussion of how to improve Haskell on Mac OS X. The name "strike force" comes from dons' post on reddit and the comments therein.
1 Wiki
You are reading the wiki. Other pages on the wiki are
2 Installing Haskell
2.1 How Haskell is on OS X today
The simplest methods are currently:
- Binary GHC framework (/Library/Framework)
- Binary Haskell platform framework (/Library/Framework)
- MacPorts (/opt/local)
- Fink (/sw)
- Homebrew (symlinked into /usr/local ?)
2.2 Manually compiled
ChrisKuklewicz 11:53, 6 September 2010 (UTC) I use MacPorts for the infrastructure and compile ghc against /opt/local but with --prefix=/opt/ghc-6.12.3 to keep it separate.
2.3 Difficult libraries on OS X
Libraries needed for ghc
- iconv (older version in /usr is incompatible with new version from MacPorts)
- readline (faked in /usr, provided by framework or MacPorts)
- gmp (framework or MacPorts)
Libraries needed for other packages? gtk?
3 OS X Trac Tickcets
[Operating System == Mac OS X] tickets on Trac
4 OS X code integration
Write Haskell in XCode?
Write ObjectiveC against GHC.Framework?
FFI for Objective C from Haskell?
5 GHC is not 64 bit
6 Improvements?
A cabal2pkg that maintains proper dependency tracking?
Discussion forum for all this?

Although cancer in children is rare, it is the number one cause of death from disease among children in the United States. There are many types of childhood cancer, each requiring various treatments or combinations of treatments. Through the combined efforts of pediatric cancer specialists and extensive research in the field, real advances have been made in the treatment of childhood cancer. However, much remains to be accomplished and you can be a part of this effort.
Curing kids cancer begins with hope, but it continues with you.
The Mississippi Children's Cancer Center at the Blair E. Batson Hospital for Children is the only center in the state providing comprehensive care for children with cancer or blood-related diseases. Completed in 1991 and made possible by the fundraising efforts of the Junior League of Jackson, the center is designed to provide outpatient care needs for children with cancer, sickle cell and other blood diseases.
The 17,750 square-foot facility includes patient care areas and laboratory research facilities. There are eight examining rooms, two treatment rooms, a chemotherapy administration room, and a large, comfortable chemotherapy observation room lined with windows affording patients a view outside. There are separate waiting room and play areas, where volunteers can play with the children and interact with families.
At the Mississippi Children's Cancer Center, we have cared for more than 1,500 children with cancer. Currently, we follow approximately 800 children with cancer, including those receiving therapy and those being monitored after completing therapy.

Court rules in favor of Jefferson City over trash service dispute
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. - Jefferson City has won a four-year-old lawsuit stemming from when the city made trash service mandatory.
After the trash service was implemented, residents voted to keep it in 2011, but George Mascengale continued to sue the city in an attempt to overturn the mandatory service.
On Tuesday, an appellate court handed down a verdict that stated the city is within its rights.
City officials say they are pleased by the ruling.
"I think we're happy, feeling vindicated," said Jefferson City attorney Drew Hilpert. "I think the appellate court basically said the way we created the ordinance, that the business is lawful and constitutional. I think we're very happy with that result."
The city made an agreement with Allied Waste requiring all residents to buy trash service so the city could get a discounted rate. Residents who did not have trash service before were upset and the city responded by saying rates with Allied Waste would be unreasonable if everyone did not buy the service.
Mascengale argued in court he was being taxed, but the court did not agree. The court ruled the city was not taxing residents, instead they were making them pay for a service.

About the Book
Anna has done something terrible. She has given me her journal to fill.
In Anna′s journal the words walk across the page like bird prints in the mud. But it is hard for me. It is hard for me to find things to write about.
"It′s your job now," Anna says as she hands Caleb her journals, asking him to continue writing the family story. But Sarah, Jacob, Anna, Caleb, and their new little sister, Cassie, have already formed a family, and Caleb fears there will be nothing left to write about. But that is before Cassie discovers a mysterious old man in the barn and everything changes. Everyone is excited about the arrival of a new family member except for Jacob, who holds a bitter grudge. Only the special love of Caleb, and the gift he offers, can help to mend the pain of the past.
Caleb′s Story continues the saga begun by the Newbery Medal-winning Sarah, Plain And Tall and its sequel, Skylark, spinning a tale of love, forgiveness, and the ties that bind a family together.

Why would the old Q put up with the new Q? Why was there not a swarm? If the new Q was made late in the fall when the old Q was winding down on egg laying and pheromone, is this why there was not a swarm and not a fight?
I said 'winding down' because the first two cases the old Q was only 8 months old! I say 'winding down' because they start laying less in the fall and I would assume (don't know) that the phermone concentration winds down too?

Jay, be honest and tell us the truth! You have access to the LFL Archives and whenever you desire you can borrow the ROTJ helmet to tease us with your so called 'painting talent'? Good old George knows what you do? Shame on you!
Ow, sorry! I always forget that you were banned from the LFL Archives years ago, so this is not the real ROTJ helmet, but could replace it at any time and no one will ever notice (almost).
I'm so proud of what you have achieved here (and the ESB too) and I think this piece should stay in a Star Wars Museum.
Your #1 fan.
Haha, ah that pesky George guy keeps coming around and harassing me Raf, its starting to get a little annoying I tell ya! Doesn't even bring a nice bottle of wine around these days.. But I digress..
Thanks for those kind words gents, I'll do my best to wrap it all up soon!
It is incredible what you have achieved. It's not just the individual colours and treatment, but the more illusive balance of all the colours and treatment working together...Sorry, that sounds like such BS!
orange stuff is glue of some sort that has aged. Looks like badger glue but I doubt that. Is the mirco switch for show or does it work?
great work
Soon I will be starting my ROTJ journey for myself/wife....Love what your doing here bro
Thanks a bunch fellas, just about acquired all the bits and bobs I need for the interior, so not far away..
Garrett - thanks for the kind words on the colours and how they work with each other. I spent considerable time with colour swatches, so glad someone with as keen an eye as yours, thinks I'm in the right ballpark. The only thing I'm not convinced with, is the satin sheen - I know there is a slight one, but just haven't found anything I like enough that gives just that 'right' amount. So mite be better just leaving it till I come across something down the track..
Dom - sounds great mate, can't wait to see your new ROTJ. I always enjoy your paint ups.
Megatron - even though it is a real micro switch, and the metal ears allow running wires, mine is just for show. This is because I tend to go for accuracy, and as it stands - and correct me if I'm wrong - but I see no evidence the ROTJ helmet had working leds, and particularly not in the MOM version, which I based this helmet on. So if it makes sense, it seems more accurate not to have it functioning, as the version I'm basing mine off didn't..
Amazing lid bro! Amazing
Boo-yah Fett -Rockstars! Time for the next update and this one has been a blast to do â the Interior. For those who havenât followed any of my previous paint ups, I look for screen accuracy with these interiors. Which means nice, clean foam and functional mechanics, get replaced by some â truth be told â sloppy and not real pleasing to the eye beauty â however, itâs exactly this, which makes it all that much harder to nail it down correctly. So with that in mind, away to work I went...
Now, what was tough about this interior is that as far as I know, I think I may be the first to have a go at the ROTJ interior. There have been some fantastic ESB efforts from the likes of BGHunter, Kurtyboy and Gino, as well as better reference pics, so that in a way, was easier to nail down the specifics. This one however, has some pretty blurry and inconclusive pics, so some trial and error was needed. Also, there are pics of 2 configurations in the interior set up for this helmet. The âHeilmanâ images showed this interior in earlier days, where the later pictures showed a few different variations and these were also evident in the âMagic of Mythâ exhibit photos. As the latter is the paint up I tried to emulate, that was also the interior I followed. I have put these two pics in for referenceâ¦
Now, earlier in this thread at post 107, I did some test fittings for interior parts. That went fine, but now, I wanted to nail down some specifics and make some changes â which ended up being pretty much EVERYTHING. Apart from the circuitry board over the key slots, everything got either changed, or replaced with more accurate pieces. The headband was changed to finer and better coloured foam, and a longer, tan sweatband; the top straps were changed to a thinner material looking much more accurate, the black chin strap holder was changed to a finer piece, with correct material now, as well as an accurate working button/stud. The metal chin strap holder clip was also changed to a more accurate piece.
Then there were the things I added in which hadnât been accounted for as yet. First were the bondo residue stains, and small tabs with cheese head screws holding down the visor end. The tabs were fine, and weathered up to look rusty as they appear in MOM. The bondo stains, when looked at in the Heilman pics, are actually bondo â the same colour as the bono used on the edges of the circuit board over the key slots. In MOM however, this colour is different â and that is because it seems the bondo has actually been scraped away, revealing the marks, and some underlying, dirtied up gel coat. So I tried to replicate this. Also added in were the wires out of the rangefinder ear, which are really hard to see, so I went with it best I could. The curved metal tabs on the upper cheeks were also constructed and added in, as well as some Velcro pieces and other bits and bobs. Phew!
So, onto the pics First up, we have a nice arial shot of the overall interior. Next, we have some detail areas - firstly of the cheese heads and bondo marks on the lower cheeks. Really hard to get super accurate, but happy with the fact they look fairly faithful and was able to capture some scrape marks and texture within. We then have a montage of some details of various areas I like. The last of the pics in this montage, shows the little chin strap holder clip, as well as one of the metal tabs I constructed for visor securing on the upper cheek. Finally, is our main comparison pic I configured my interior to look as it does in the reference photo best I could.
Overall, Im really happy with the result, particularly from limited resources, and the lack of a nice clean reference pic, but of course, any feedback welcome as always. Sorry for the long post, but it was actually quite a large and fiddly area to do, even if that is not apparent. Thanks for looking gang, complete and final shots hopefully just around the corner. Peace my friends
Everything looks great, as expected! The only things that bothers me are the upper T-visor attachments (1 in the center and 2 on the ends), but I know that you would correct them if the T-visor wouldn't be that thin (you have a 2mm thick visor, while the original has a 3mm thick one). If possible, try to eliminate those screws... Everything else is perfect!
You are insane J man! That is all.......
Thanks for the kind words Dave, and awesome to see you back on the boards buddy. Your enthusiasm is contagious brother, so great to see you back!
Single greatest attempt at an ROTJ helmet paintjob outside of Lucasfilm TDH has ever seen. Period.
Itâs all been said before, but that shouldnât stop it being said again. This is absolutely amazing!!
Itâs got to be my favourite thread in all the TDH. Itâs "converted meâ......
I used to hold the ILM ESB Fett paint-style as the one & only & did pay my attention to the ROTJ (ILM). I loved the Realistic look of the battle damage & its scars & I couldnât see the same on the ROTJ so I didnât give it much time. Jayvees & Superjedi threads on the ESB paint-up were at that time my source of go-to "dream lid" pics!
However from enjoying this thread, I can see the immense detail that you Jonny has put into this lid, then by studying how it so accurately matches the original has enlightened me to appreciate the ILM ROTJ so much more & all of its detail. The Man reaches Enlightenment! I love the ESB just as much, but thru your paint-up, my awareness & love of fett has doubled. gotta say thanks for this alone.
Love your work! Awesome & Inspiring.
OK next weekend I get home should have an MQ1 to finish off mine...used the list and I must say it turned out quite well bud...still have alot of detail work to do later but all in all I went with Heilman photos for a screen used less beat up look...pics soon..It looks done but I still wanna get the MQ1 in as I didnt have one at the time to throw in there.
Sounds unreal Dom, look forward to seeing your pics bud, glad the colours worked out for you.. As I have no doubt you will be aware with your colour knowledge, the detail work will blend the colours somewhat also. Once I get back from my travel, should be able to get some nice final shots up of this guy.
And Mick - thank you kindly for those amazing comments. That sort of a write up makes me feel completely awestruck, and is ridiculously kind
I really liked how the mythos helmet turned out using the same colors...
Beautiful work man!
Simply the best thread that I have found so far ! Brilliant, thank you Jayvee

Editor's Note: Whether you're a tourist or an office worker in downtown Chicago, you can get sick of eating at chain restaurants all day. So we've started a series to get you the lowdown on where to find a great and affordable lunch.
I took last week off of Lunch in the Loop to take a mind-clearing road trip. It was the impromptu road trip everyone fantasizes about; I simply packed a few changes of clothes, grabbed a few bucks, and just took off. I didn't (and still don't) even have a wallet since it got pickpocketed off me the other week. On one leg of my trip, I even asked a stranger about where he thought I should go next; he gave me a suggestion, and I headed straight in that direction, no questions asked.
I'd like to say it was an uplifting tale of epic proportions, where I found my soul, Eat, Pray, Love, style, but I don't make a very good Julia Roberts (I look creepy in a dress), and there was no serendipitous romantic kismet (I hate that word and I want to punch myself in the ass for using it) either. I did, however, see a cat riding a dog, and I came back with a knee injury. The first thing I craved when I got back, was barbecue, and that's how I found myself at the brand spankin' new Blackwood BBQ, which opened up a few weeks ago near the Clark and Lake public transit hub.
Many people have likened the streamlined ordering system at Blackwood BBQ to that of Chipotle, where you pick a meat, pick a sauce, and pick a side. The brisket platter ($7.49) is as simple as it gets; it's a fair serving of smoked, salty, fork-tender brisket covered in a powerfully flavorful black bark. The bark is salty, so getting a bite of bark and center meat is key for the perfect bite, and the best bites also have a layer of fat in them, so see if you can ask for a serving with some fat left on it.
The pulled pork sandwich ($6.49 includes one side) is killer, especially topped with cole slaw. It's tender and porky, without being too soft, and the cole slaw is a must; it adds fresh tangy cabbage crunch, and the best part is that it's not overdressed, so the freshness of the vegetables genuinely comes through.
The pulled chicken sandwich ($6.49, includes one side) is covertly smoky, meaning the smoke flavor comes on faintly towards the end. It's also moist and tender. I chose the sweet yellow-mustardy South Carolina sauce to dress it, but I think a tomato-based sauce might have been a better pairing. Out of the three meats, the chicken is my least favorite, but only because I'm a sucker for pork or beef barbecue.
The baked beans ($0.99 a la carte, or included in combo meal) are sweet and homey, with a few pieces of pulled pork tossed in. Rather than being cooked to a baby food bean paste, the beans still have some starchy texture, which I really appreciate—no canned mush here.
The cornbread ($0.99) is the sweet, cake-like variety that we tend to like here in the Midwest, and whole corn kernels are mixed into the batter, adding chewy nuggets to every other bite.
The mac and cheese ($1.49 a la carte, or included in combo meal) is fairly mild in cheese flavor, which is actually a good thing, considering the barbecue is so flavorful already. The longer it sits, the chewier it gets, so dig in quickly.
There's five sauces: Chicago style, which is a thick and sweet sauce with a lot of cumin, Memphis style, a thick and tangy tomato-based sauce, Kansas City style, which is tangy and has a pretty good spice kick to it, a vinegar based North Carolina style sauce, and a sweet yellow mustard South Carolina style sauce.
Blackwood BBQ is the first barbecue joint to show up in the Loop, and they're serving some of the best lunch downtown, especially for those surprisingly low prices. I highly recommend you lunch monsters to give it a shot, and I highly recommend against you imagining me in a dress.

The best way to get a feel for whether or not a university is the right place for you is for you to experience it firsthand through a campus visit. Emory University is unique in that you'll find two different campuses to explore. During a visit to either Emory College or Oxford College you will be able to talk with current students, take a student-led campus tour, and attend an information session hosted by an admission representative. Depending on the time of year, you may also be able to attend a class and/or check out campus dining options.
Students have the choice to plan a weekday tour and information session, or schedule permitting, attend a special visit event on either campus. Better yet, plan to visit both campuses during the same trip!
Reservations are required for all campus visit programs, and we recommend you arrange your visits at least three weeks in advance to ensure availability. Please note, admitted students need to register for April admitted student visit events through the Admitted Student Website linked in their admission letter. While schedules may change around holidays, generally the following holds true:
Emory College Admission Office1390 Oxford Road NE, Atlanta, GA 30322
8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. ET, Monday - Friday
Oxford College Admission Office100 Hamill Street, Oxford, GA 30054

Discussion in 'March 2009' started by Dlev59, Mar 19, 2009.
WALT IS A PIMP! Sharpe is undefeated as a Piston. LEEE, U had to luv that game! w00000000000t!
What was that? I didn't quite hear you...
I start wondering wether the Pistons roster has some hidden gems that only wait to break out with given playing time. Sharpe, Bynum and even Brown have been putting up at least solid numbers if given enough minutes. Maybe this roster is way better than used.
Good win. Bynum was very impressive. Amir looked like someone who hadn't played in awhile which is probably b/c he hasn't played in awhile. I can't believe Curry put him in there at the end. Tayshaun was good on both sides Dyess' behind the back pass was great LOL AA's defense was great. Offense wasn't there tonight. But he did have 5 assists. And now a random rant on Hermann. Warning so fans of his can skip it. Hermann is Jarvis Hayes. He's a streaky shooter who gets hot once ever 40 games, and can't guard anyone. He gets minutes regardless of his play and never seems to get pulled when he's terrible. Props to him for getting hot in the 4th, but these are the type of games that make Curry go nuts with his PT, and think of him as an integral rotation player until 2010. Dunleavy is an idiot for not going to Al Thornton. When i think about Hermann in the PO's and the SF's that we will face, i have an early adverse reaction. I'm not opposed to him playing. I think there are situations he's very useful. His ability to space the floor can be crucial. However, it would be alot easier if Curry knew how to differentiate between said situations. End rant And for anyone that cares, the BOS/SAS is game is pretty good. It's always been IMO.
That was enjoyable. I can't believe the Clips beat us this year when we were at full strength. Was nice to see a PG in total control of the game for us. Made it seem like we were going to score on every possession. Such depth. Stats galore. Career high for Bynum in minutes and points (assists?). Career high for Tay in assists, amazing since he had a b-list cast of supporting actors. McDyess was monstrous again with 24 and 17. Beyond that, you had Kwame Brown demanding the ball in the post and drawing double teams. A 3 from AA and 3 3's from Walter pretty much took it from a close game to a blowout. Bynum is pretty much unguardable one on one and he's pretty tough to stop even with 2 on the perimeter. Ugly free throws though for a little guy.
Amir with 2 fouls in 1 minute. That's 96 fouls per 48 minutes.
Do you want me to repeat myself? LOL This is like when Jarvis Hayes use to score 15 and everybody was so impressed with his offensive prowess naming him the answer to our SF problem. Say i told you so when he actually has more than 3 good games for the entire season. =)
what a grim day for herrmann haters and amir lovers
Sharpe had 2 pts in 36 seconds that's like 70 points in 36 minutes.
it looks like a test pattern for the french porn channel!
Maybe they should end the Amir Johnson experiment and go with Sharpe. Very impressive win - they played like a team. Bynum shows no signs of slowing down or being figured out. Maybe there is a possibility that he could be the future PG. Kwame Brown had another solid game. It really gets me how he could have been helping us all along. Hopefully Dyess can save some of these games for the playoffs.
Hey ...at least NOW we are playing our bench. I didnt WATCH one second of this game. i was at HOOters watching March madness... If U did waste a Friday Night on this game? Shame on your wretched soul and meet me at Pistonaholics seminar July 3 in Ft wayne.

Just nine players dressed for us. Sharpe only played the last minute, made an impressive reverse driving in from the right. Amir played little. Basically, we used a 7 man rotation, Bynum, Afflalo, Tay, Dyess, Kwame started and Maxiell and Herrmann were the bench. I think Bynum played the whole game.

The Clips don't do defense. For all the stats Kaman and Camby put up, they absolutely are not very good players. Considering defense is part of the game, and they do none of that, they just are not very good.

Bynum scored a ton. Nobody guarding the basket, why not. Kwame looked all world, as nobody bothered him around the basket. Herrmann was left open and hit some triples, three of them, in the 4th, plus scored twice besides. Like someone said, gee, Curry is now going to believe Herrmann can play, since he scored some. But the Clips will not be facing us in the playoffs. The teams that make the playoffs will have something in common - they play defense.

Afflalo made just one shot, but did a lot of decent ball handling and played good D.

Bynum played good D, got some assists to go with those points.

Tay scored an impressive double double in points and rebounds.

Dyess had a monster game shooting outside, mostly uncontested shots. (He did hit a contested fade too.) And 17 boards.

You know when someone is playing good defense. Up all over the opposing player, making him miss a shot or not even take one. Over and over, you see Pistons do this. Like Bynum. Afflalo. Prince. JMAX. Amir. Never from Herrmann. Pay attention. He does nothing on D.

Despite how bad the Clips are, we fell behind them in the 1st half. It was an even game. Herrmann came in. No defense. Curry decided to pair up Amir and JMAX, a pairing that never works. I'm thinking - where does this guy come up with this stuff. Does he sit and think what would be the worst possible rotations I could possibly throw out there tonight?

Anyway, we fell behind, but caught back up and passed them in the 3rd quarter.

It looked like we might lose the lead with Herrmann in, but hey, he then proceeded to hit all those shots. Open or not, he still canned them.

Note, it was announced that Stuck would dress, but not start, but soon they changed that to Stuckey not dressing for the game.

Can't really think of much more to say about the game. A win is a win. Just that much less a chance of us falling out of the playoffs in favor of Charlotte who is gaining fast on us. (Assuming Chicago passes us soon.)

isn't it like 160 pts/48 minutes?
Kwame needs a slashing type guard who is always a threat to at least pull two men toward the slasher. Which was what killed the Clips, especially in the latter part of the second half. Another player that needs this PG motion is Boozer. You need a whole different approach about offensive patterns and away from what is marginal (at best) now. The Clips are an embarrassing team.
Look, you're a language teaching dude, and I make webpages. No one will think twice about the fact that I am abacus challenged.
Any offense he gives is a plus. I just like his defense - with steals, and rebounds.
Good to see the Clippers. The Pistons needed it. Bynum did his thing. Is he for real? We will find out. The Clippers are very poor defensively as Lee noted. Bynum along with Tay and Dyss were the story. Tay and Dyss--nothing new--they usually put up numbers. Our core of the last few years are underrated players. They are very good indeed. Pistons were down at the half. Not one three ball made at that time. The Clippers shot 50% for the half. Affalo and JMax may have had one basket between them. Inconsistent offense from too many players on the squad and the defense is not there--for the whole half--not just when Hermann is in the game. The Pistons opened up the offense in the second half. Good. Surprisingly easy win. The Clippers stars may be overrated or is it their system? Young big watch: Brown, Maxiel and Amir a combined 54 minutes with 6 boards. That will not get it done. Brown has actually showed some life lately. But how does he fit in? He is not a strong rebounder nor a good scorer. Hermann hit his shots but that has only been about the third time this year. A shooter has to do that at least every third game. Haven't seen that yet.
Amir Johnson was a -8 for the game. He is like a value meal. For one small minute he'll get you 2 dumb fouls. The only other minus player for the game was Max at -1. Kwame looked like he got into Sheed's stash going at the refs pretty good. I hope Sheed and Rip can get healthy. I just want to see what it can look like. It's funny how much better Bynum can finish at the rim than any of the other Piston guards.
Bynum is a professional basketball player. This is his career. Whatever his limitations, he wasn't drafted and handed millions, or a season pass on the Roundball team plane. He's had to learn and work on his craft to continue getting contracts, staying healthy, in shape, out of trouble. There is much less drama outside the NBA, where guys can't afford to get into shootings outside clubs, because they aren't set for life with a guaranteed contract.

Arsène Wenger believes Paul Lambert has made all the right decisions during his time at Carrow Road.
Wenger faces the Scot on Saturday when Arsenal travel to Norfolk to take on a Norwich side enjoying life in the Premier League.
The Canaries sit ninth after 11 matches and Wenger has praised Lambert for the astute methods employed throughout his two-year Norwich tenure.
"The right way to approach it is to get the right formula and I think he has done that," Wenger told Arsenal Player.
"They bought Anthony Pilkington who we saw had a good impact against us last season in the FA Cup, and players like Elliott Bennett who we have seen are Premier League quality.
"These are shrewd buys and a factor of the development of their success."

Hey everyone, I just wanted to thank all of you for the ton of useful information you have given me, and continue to give me. After renting many handguns and borrowing a few, I ended up with a Sig p245. I shot the Sig several times and it just felt right. Luckily, I found one in my area after knowing it was the one I had to have! My only regret is that I didn't get into handguns long ago, it's been a fun and interesting start though!! Just joined the NRA also, my new shooting friends said it wasn't an option, lol, and after reading up on things, I agree!!
I'll shut up now,
THANKS again guys
Welcome from the swamp. Enjoy.

Some Chevrolet Dealerships Have Volt Revolt After Price Increase
Tiffany Kaiser
January 2, 2013 5:14 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Dealerships don't want to spend more on tools needed to service the Volts since sales for most are down
Select Chevrolet dealerships around the U.S. are ditching
the Volt
after General Motors (GM) hiked up the price of tools to service the vehicle.
Last year, dealerships spent $1,800 to $2,800 on tools that are required to service each Volt plug-in hybrid. However, GM has raised the price of these tools to $5,100. The reason? A battery-repowering tool that removes and ships sections of the Volt's huge 435-pound battery for repair instead of shipping the whole thing costs dealerships about $4,735. This makes up the bulk of the tool costs while a few others are needed as well.
Due to this price hike, some dealerships have decided to stop selling the Volt altogether. Some say their overall Volt sales just don't justify the additional cost.
Allyn Barnard, owner of Jim Barnard Chevrolet in Churchville, New York, is among those who feel that way. He has only sold five Volts since the vehicle's launch in late 2010/early 2011, and doesn't see the point in paying over $5,000 for the tools needed to service them.
"Going forward, the profitability would be really hard for us to justify the expense of the repair tools," said Barnard.
The Volt may have had a bumpy start with a few
production shutdowns
and issues with lithium ion battery fires during National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) testing, but
sales of the Volt have been very impressive
over the last year. During the first seven months of 2012, GM sold 10,666 Volt extended range electric vehicles for an increase of 270% compared to the first seven months of 2011.
However, Chevrolet then had a low November sales month due to low inventory. Chevrolet sold 1,519 Volts in November 2012, which represented a 33 percent increase over November 2011. But the number of cars sold in November was roughly half the number sold in October and September when the company sold 2,961 and 2,851 Volts respectively.
Chevrolet said this is a good thing, though, because it means
demand is higher than expected
As of December 2012, General Motors had sold 20,828 Volts for the year.
Despite these excellent numbers (Nissan was hoping to sell 20,000 Leafs in 2012, but fell way short), about 70 percent of Volt sales are generated by the 300 top-selling dealerships. There are about 2,614 dealerships certified to sell the Volt.

Pretty much everything I have read about the Rohrbaugh has been negative. With the cost, the subject doesn't come up very often. I think it is ridiculous to pay that much for that little gun. But the few people who have seem to not be very satisfied.
I like my P99c, which is about the size of a Glock 26. If ya want a smaller 9mm, look at Keltec or Kahr. Just realize that as U get smaller, that size 9mm is not very pleasant to shoot. Also, look at the S&W CS9 - Its a bit bigger than the Kahr, but is still single stack.

Land Deal to Double Size of Village Creek State Park
AUSTIN, Texas — Village Creek State Park in southeast Texas will more than double in size as a result of action taken Thursday by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Commission directing the acquisition of roughly 1,420 acres of undeveloped timber land owned by The Conservation Fund.
At its regular meeting in Austin, the commission approved the bargain sale purchase of the Hardin County tract that abuts the southern boundary of the 1,090-acre state park near Lumberton. The long sought-after acreage will protect critical habitat from urban encroachment and enhance Village Creek State Park's connection to the Big Thicket National Preserve's Village Creek and Neches River Corridor units.
"This is an exciting acquisition that will more than double the size of the park and provide for a better visitor experience," said Texas State Parks Director Walt Dabney. "It's a perfect example of how a public-private partnership can work to benefit the environment and all Texans."
Village Creek State Park, which opened in 1994, is blessed with a diverse habitat that includes longleaf pine uplands, wetlands and cypress swamps, as well as two miles of valuable creek frontage. Sixty-nine-mile long Village Creek is recognized as one of the last free-flowing streams in East Texas and is home to rare fish and mussels. TPWD has been working for some time with the Fund to acquire the additional acreage to protect the park from encroaching development on its fringes resulting from the City of Lumberton's accelerating growth.
The acquisition brings several major benefits. It will expand outdoor recreational opportunities for park visitors, protect important habitat for plants and animals, and for the first time, provide state park personnel with vehicle access to the eastern third of the existing state park. TPWD has an agreement with the National Park Service that will allow cooperation to explore additional public access to Village Creek through Big Thicket Preserve property adjacent to the 1,420-acre tract. Current logging roads would be used for park trails.
The Conservation Fund, through a creative combination of public and private grant funding, was able to offer the additional acreage to TPWD at about one-quarter of its market value. Andy Jones, Texas director of The Conservation Fund, praised the cooperative effort.
"I started my career at Texas Parks and Wildlife and working with the department again is like a homecoming for me," Jones said. "It is an honor to work with their dedicated and very professional staff to protect this key property for future generations."
The Conservation Fund is the nation's foremost environmental nonprofit dedicated to advancing America's land and water legacy for current and future generations. Seeking innovative conservation solutions for the 21st century, the Fund works to integrate economic and environmental goals. Since its founding in 1985, the Fund has helped its partners safeguard wildlife habitat, working landscapes, community "greenspace" and historic sites totaling more than 6 million acres.
Village Creek State Park, located about 10 miles north of Beaumont, is back in full operation after suffering considerable damage from Hurricanes Rita and Ike. Unique in the state park system, Village Creek preserves a small slice of the 96,000-acre Big Thicket, known as the "biological crossroads of North America, due to its incredible ecological diversity. The park draws tens of thousands of visitors annually to camp, hike, fish, mountain bike, canoe and view wildlife that includes more than 200 species of birds.

Teddy wears a dress shirt, tie, and suit every day; he has two and alternates them. He's also pretty sure he's engaged to Mia and shows his love by sometimes connecting their wheelchairs by a bungee cord because he has a power chair and Mia doesn't. Teddy and Mia are two of the teen residents of the Illinois Learning and Life Skills Center, a state nursing facility now run by a for-profit corporation.
In Good Kings Bad Kings, a novel by Susan Nussbaum, the voices of Teddy, Mia, and other residents and staff of the ILLC use their own words to tell the heartbreaking story of youth in residential care. I dare you to not care.

Surgery ultimately is what takes the pain away and allows the dog to have a normal life again. However it is expensive, and given your location, the cost for it isn't really a surprise. Surgeries where I work tend to be around 2400 for a TPLO and around 2000 for a lateral suture. Give or take. Physiotherapy is really very helpful for them. Acupuncture, hydrotherapy, cold lazer. They can also be very helpful.
However there is one other option that others have not mentioned on this thread. There are some companies out there who create custom braces for your dog. Now these are not cheap either, nor are they going to help your dog function normally without them after a time. There is one company that makes a good product compared with others. I will have to ask the physiotherapist I work with what it is called again. This will not be super cheap either. I know my co-worker who had her mastiff tear his ACL spent I believe 800-900 on it, but he can run around now since she cannot afford to do the surgery yet.
Conservative management can work at times, however some times it doesn't work well either. Hopefully you can figure out perhaps talking with a surgeon what options you have, and if they have something that can help you. Where I work we have come up with something to help people with limited income have access to specialty care for their pets. Something like an ACL tear would qualify. It isn't free, but it is greatly reduced and we all want to see pets get healthy and back to action again.

If you want a dog that will be fine walking across the living room, then don't do the surgery. My daughter, I and our dog were very active prior to the tear. I can't imagine a dog I can't go on hikes with.
As others have said, throwing supplements at your dog will not help this injury. Keep your dog on the rimadyl as prescribed by your doctor. You want to keep inflammation down, its not just a pain killer but an anti-inflammatory.
I understand the surgery is expensive. Ours was $4300 but we could have done it for less if we opted for the non-arthroscoptic surgery. My neighbor did the non-arthroscoptic and the incision site was huge, for me more risk for infection, but their dog did fine. I've observed several human surgeries where they use the scope that are minimally invasive, that is one reason I chose this.
Until then, you will have to rest your dog. No jumping, running or playing with other dogs. Consider getting a ramp for your car. I probably would not do no more than 15 minute walks 2x a day, plus out to the bathroom. I'd do this for two weeks, then try to gradually increase, but not too much more.

I will say we've over paid compared to some quotes folks have posted on other procedures. Zoey had a root canal/crown on her lower canine, I think we paid a good $5-600 more, but this vet was the only show in town.
|Our quote for the surgery, meds and after care rehab was almost $3500 for 1knee for Tightrope. $1800 sounds like a steal. or it doesn't include full post op care.
You say he needs to loose a bit of weight, how much does he weigh? The tight rope surgery is not $3k, we were quoted about $1,800 for it, the reason we elected to go TPLO is Ranger is under 2 yrs, 95 lbs and very active, our vet who does tight rope, suggested we go with the TPLO. Your dog being older may do just fine with the other surgery, remember this type of surgery was the standard for years before the TPLO came along. You could look into care credit as well. Try working some of the weight off, the leaner the better, then save what you can then apply for CC.
If you need to exercise him in the mean time while trying to get the weight down, remember you'll want to do multiple short (leashed) walks vs long walks, running etc.
our rescue 4year old girl has 2 torn ACLs.
Our ortho vet recommended surgery but since they are old injuries couldn't guarantee us a great result. Ginger is currently on several supplements and meds- Meloxicam (like Rimydl), Adaquan injection and another I can't think of at the moment. We have started rehab with her as well. The rehab is laser therapy and will be integrating some water therapy too. Don't fret about not doing surgery. Sometimes the recovery from the surgery can be very traumatic as well. Our vet has supported our decision to try alternatives for awhile. I would recommend limiting walking and playtime though so it doesn't get worse or more painful.
There isn't much you can do to make them comfortable other than the pain meds.
My oldest dog blew out his right ACL. It was surgically repaired, but he also has a torn left ACL. The specialist advised to have it repaired also, but the surgery is $3k at a minimum. I think we paid more for laser therapy and platelet injections. Anyway, most days he walks fine on his left leg. After he does a lot of physical things, even swimming, he won't walk on the left leg. He holds it up, but after a nights rest he walks on it again with no issues. We try to keep his activity very mild.
The first surgery took a lot out of him. It was a long recovery period and he had to be crated and leash walked. He got very depressed. We were concerned about him. He was also getting a bit aggressive. Once he was healed, out of the crate and not being leashed walked every where he eventually went back to his normal self. I don't want to put him through that again unless the left ACL blows out. He's also 8 years old.
It is a personal choice. If my dog could not use his leg I would look into getting it fixed. One vet did give us a Chinese herb to try. I didn't notice it helping any. I'm not sure what it's called. The bottle says tendon/ligament formula. The brand/maker is Jing Tang.

i am sorry if my post seemed rude
but you have everyone on this thread telling you to take the dog to the vet
i do not know what more we can tell you

In Defense of "Freshperson"
Next Fall, I'll be enrolling in my first year of college. I'll be a freshman – a concept that's giving me pause not just because I'm questioning the existentialist quality of being a freshman, but because of the word itself. Why must I be a freshman?
According to dictionary.com, the word "freshman" comes from the words fresh (as in new) and man (as in not woman), and has been used to refer to first year university students since the 1590s. This term is clearly a relic of ye olden dayes (or, for some schools, a few decades ago) when higher education was a realm solely accessibly to (usually rich, upper class, white, able-bodied) men. Although we have abolished or significantly limited the usage of numerous gender-insensitive …

G'day from Australia,
I've been having a look around the last couple of months trying to get ideas for where to get, and how to install an RC rangefinder for my Rex build I'm currently in the process of. I'm also chasing a circuit board to add leds to the rangefinder.
Unfortunately, work on Rex is sporadic, due to me working in the mines in the north west of the country- 2 weeks on 1 week off -so the week off is flat out and I usually go back to work for a rest, rather than the other way round!
Most of my posting is on the 501tag forums, which is where my Rex build can be found.

Today's fixture is the Club's 4,000th league match. The Club's first league season was 1893/94 and Arsenal are now enjoying their 101st league campaign. The team has recorded 1,787 wins in that time, as opposed to 1,210 defeats. The team has scored 6,622 goals and conceded 5,148. The victory over Manchester City on Saturday was our 250th in Premiership history. The breakdown is as follows:

Arsenal Reserve team coach Eddie Niedzwiecki has left Arsenal to join up with Mark Hughes at Blackburn Rovers. Eddie was part of Hughes' coaching team for the Welsh national team, and he will now be first team coach at Ewood Park. Eddie took over the Arsenal reserves in late 2000 following the tragic death of George Armstrong. He consistently produced excellent results with the second string, and guided them to a top six finish in each of his three full seasons in charge.
"Just like the young side I was taking in the reserves at Arsenal, I have always looked for progression," Eddie said. "I could have sat at Arsenal for the next five, six or seven years being lovely and comfortable. But I wanted to see if I could do it at the top level. Mark Hughes has always shown confidence in me and this is a big progression for me. "Myself, Mark and Mark Bowen have worked together closely at national level for quite a while. Having said that, it was still a massive wrench for me to leave Arsenal." Arsenal Football Club would like to thank Eddie for all his hard work at the Club, and wish him all the best at Ewood Park.
Arsenal have agreed to extend Adam Birchall's loan period at League Two side Wycombe Wanderers by a further month. The Wales Under 21s forward, who has netted twice for Tony Adams' team so far, is now expected back at Highbury on October 23.
Supporters may be aware that a special commemorative home kit, marking our final season at Highbury, is going to be worn by the team next season. The design has been chosen, but it's not going to be revealed for some time yet. We want young supporters to guess what the kit design will look like. Arsenal.com has a blank kit which you can print out and colour in and so does this month's Official Magazine. The young fan whose design is closest to that chosen will be invited down to Highbury for the official photocall next season, where they will sit with the first team squad in their new kit. You only have until the end of October to submit your designs, so don't delay!
To celebrate the Club's achievement of winning the Championship unbeaten we are delighted to offer supporters the opportunity to have their photograph taken with the Barclays Premiership Trophy, the new Commemorative Trophy and the Community Shield. The photo-shoots will take place at Highbury in the North Bank on the following half-term dates:
THURSDAY, OCTOBER 21 through to SUNDAY, OCTOBER 31.
The photo-shoots run from 10am to 4.30pm and are priced at £12 for a standard background and £18 for a super-imposed background. To book your place call 020 7704 4500 or email firstname.lastname@example.com
Supporters group REDaction is urging fans to flag up support inside the stadium today and to help build matchday atmosphere, the following activities are taking place this afternoon:
Flags for a pound - REDaction has flags on sale outside the ground and these are intended to be used to create a visual spectacle inside the stadium. REDaction is appealing to fans to wave these today and help contribute to today's matchday atmosphere and then bring them back for another match.
North Bank Knees Up - For all those with tickets for the North Bank today, come along to the lower tier concourse from around 2pm onwards for another good sing song, with the airing of a few Arsenal classics, plus lots of modern favourites. Enter the stadium early to help build the atmosphere ahead of kick-off. So why not get involved?
Anita Asante will be presented with the Arsenal Ladies' Players' Player of the Year award at half-time this afternoon. Please show you appreciation for Anita, who gave several outstanding performances in the Ladies' double winning season last year, and has also impressed for the England Under-19s. Anita has signed for Arsenal Ladies again this season. She was due to go to the USA on a scholarship but was unable to take up the opportunity at the college in Miami. As much as it is very disappointing for Anita we hope she enjoys her comeback to Arsenal Ladies.

The successful applicant will join the forum as of November 2004 and will serve as a member until the end of season 2005/2006. Forums are held four times per season, usually in the Arsenal Museum prior to a match (although occasionally held after a match if it is an early kick-off). If you would like to stand for this position you must hold a current valid red membership.
Please apply in writing to
Elliot Roberts
Electoral Reform Services

London N8 0NW
Stating the following details:
Name, address, postcode, date of birth, contact telephone number, email address (if applicable) and red membership number. All applications should be received no later than Monday, October 18, after which Electoral Reform Services will carry out a random draw to determine the successful applicant. After a validity check has confirmed that the membership quoted is valid, the result of the draw will be published in the matchday programme and Arsenal.com on Saturday, October 30. Please note that the draw will be strictly limited to one application per person.
Whilst you are sitting comfortably, hopefully enjoying another winning performance from the Gunners this afternoon, Arsenal fanatic Jon Baron (pictured) is embarking on a charity climb of Mount Kilimanjaro to help young people with cancer. Jon starts the climb today and is aiming to reach the 20,000ft summit at 6am on Thursday, October 7. The Teenage Cancer Trust (reg charity 1062559) builds and equips specialist units for teenagers with cancer. Where normally these teenagers are treated in a ward alongside toddlers or the elderly, in these units, they are treated beside their peers.
Being treated in a TCT unit and benefiting from the technical specialist care available, along with the support and company of people their own age, results in an estimated increase of about 20% in recovery rates. If you feel you would like to support John and help teenagers fight cancer, please send any donations to the Programme Editor at the usual Club address, cheques should be made payable to Teenage Cancer Trust. For more information please visit www.teencancer.org

Re: Mpg
I use a nifty little program called Fuelly. www.fuelly.com.
I never partially fill the tank and have done 4 fill ups and 1113 miles.
All of my mileage is about 65% freeway and these number relect that. My best is 24.7 and avg. is 23.7
I am always on cruise on the freeway at approx 72mph, climate control on at 72 deg.
It tracks fuel prices, avg. price, cost/mile and other little things.
Good news is that it's free.

Re: Mpg
My point was that different pumps will shut off at different points in the fillup, so "filling your tank" at Pump A probably won't match "filling your tank" at Pump B.
Who stops when the pump does?

Re: Mpg
My Cts gained 2-4 mpg on the hwy once the engine got about 4000 miles on it. Xts should be the same.

Re: Mpg
OK, just finished 700 mile trip, ave speed 61.7 mph( mostly insterstate) and best ave mpg was 21.7. I have never seen the kind of mileage described on the sticker 17-26 and definitely not the 29 mpg describe in earlier posts. XTS Platinum AWD (appx 3000 miles on car) is not living up to expectations. "04 Seville with NorthStar was much better ( consistently 24-26+ on highway).
Recent trip 400 miles. 3 passengers and luggage. Mostly hi way miles, avg mpg was 22.9. My XTS is AWD and currently has approx. 4000 miles.

Re: Mpg
On the roundtrip to my brother's in CT, most of it on I-81, I consistently got ~2 mpg better going North, in two different cars and even in winter, when I thought the wind was against me. Must have something to do with the shape of the hills.
It does look like my LLT V6 STS gets worse mileage than my DeVille did, but it's so hard to drive it slow and easy. Either you get bogged down in 6th at 1200 rpm or you want to accelerate and downshift and watch the instantaneous mpg drop to single digits. Is the XTS like that?
