text: James Dolan, NBA committee to talk new CBA with players Daily News - Mitch Lawrence 8/4/09 "Depending on what happens with LeBron James next July, the Knicks could be pursuing Chris Paul in two summers when the Hornets' star playmaker can become a free agent. But Monday, Garden chairman Jim Dolan will meet with Paul on a different matter. At a midtown hotel, Dolan and members of the NBA owners' labor-relations committee will sit down with Paul and his executive-committee peers to start what figures to be a long and slow process toward a new labor deal. The current collective bargaining agreement has two more seasons to run, and the 11th hour won't arrive until July 1, 2011, so there is some question as to whether there will be a sense of urgency to get a new deal done in the coming months. Both sides have said today will be mainly a getting-to-know-you session, with Dolan and Paul among several new negotiating team members. But there have been signals from both camps in recent weeks that negotiations will be difficult and the league could be facing its first lockout since closing down operations in 1998. Citing declining revenues and their contention that less than half the 30 teams made a profit last season, owners are expected to seek major changes in the current system that guarantees players 57% of basketball-related income. In informal sessions between the two sides in recent months, the league has painted a bleak picture of future revenues, and is expected to do more of the same today. However, the players are skeptical of the figures the league has been using and are opposed to an overhaul of the system that went into place in July 2005. Furthermore, the players don't want to rush into a new deal, given the bad economy. The owners will be headed up by commissioner David Stern, who declined comment Monday through an NBA spokesman and has imposed a gag order on owners. Billy Hunter, the NBA Players Association's executive director, will lead a team that includes the Lakers' Derek Fisher, president of the NBAPA." http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/basketball/2009/08/04/2009-08-04_nba_players_to_start_talking_deal.html#ixzz0NMhONQQV NBA owners expect major labor and financial pain in league's future Daily News - Mitch Lawrence 8/5/09 "Alarmed by the bad economy and struggles of a number of the league's 30 teams, NBA owners continued to paint a bleak financial picture Tuesday in Manhattan when they opened labor negotiations with players on a new contract. Ten owners, including the Knicks' James Dolan, used the 3-1/2-hour meeting to potentially lay the groundwork for major changes in the current system that pays players 57% of basketball-related income. Walking out of a midtown hotel with Laker executive Jeanie Buss after the session, Dolan engaged only in small talk with reporters. Owners are under a gag order from commissioner David Stern, who also refused comment. The two camps called the meeting "productive and cordial." "There was a preliminary exchange of financial information, but no proposals were made," both sides said in a joint statement. "We both look forward to another meeting before the start of the season." At the next meeting, tentatively scheduled for September, players expect to hear more lousy financial projections. In informal sessions between the two sides over the last few months, owners have harped on the poor economy and how it has hindered teams and will continue to adversely affect bottom lines. That's why owners exercised their option not to extend the current pact for one more season, covering 2011-12. The current deal has two seasons to run. Despite the dire projections, the Lakers' Derek Fisher, president of the NBA Players Association, came away with "optimism." "There seemed to be a feeling in the room that everybody is trying to do the right thing," Fisher said. "I hope that will continue." But if owners demand major changes to the current system, both sides foresee a long, difficult road to a new deal." http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/basketball/2009/08/05/2009-08-05_nba_owners_expect_major_labor_pains_in_leagues_future.html#ixzz0NMg5S7Mf Owners share grim figures with players as CBA negotiations begin Ken Berger - CBS Sports "NEW YORK -- In a negotiating session described by both sides as "cordial and productive," the NBA and its players union began talks Tuesday on a new collective bargaining agreement to replace the one that expires after the 2010-11 season. But no amount of politeness could sugarcoat league-wide losses -- and projected losses -- that were presented by ownership's negotiating committee in the closed-door session at a Midtown Manhattan hotel. One person familiar with the talks said the owners came prepared with "astronomical" figures detailing league-wide losses. It's a good thing they're starting these talks early. No formal proposals were exchanged, given that this was only a preliminary step in a two-year process aimed at ratifying a new agreement without enduring a damaging lockout like the one that hampered the NBA in 1998-99. The only official business came in the form of formal notice from the owners that, as widely expected, they will not exercise their option to extend the current CBA by another year. "I think we knew that coming in," said the Lakers' Derek Fisher, president of the National Basketball Players Association. "I think it was a point that they just made sure was understood, that the deal won't be extended as it currently stands. There was no surprise there." Nor should there be any surprise that owners presented a grim financial progress report that Fisher diplomatically described as "cautious." A person familiar with the owners' strategy said they claimed league-wide financial losses in every year of the current CBA, which went into effect at the start of the 2005-06 season. The league and union agreed to begin the collective bargaining talks a year earlier than is customary, given the state of the economy and both sides' recognition that another costly work stoppage must be avoided. The owners, accompanied by commissioner David Stern, deputy commissioner Adam Silver and president of league and basketball operations Joel Litvin, generally stuck to projections given to teams by the league office last month that league-wide revenue could decline between 2.5 percent and 5 percent during the 2009-10 season. As a result, the salary cap would decrease in 2010-11 -- the final year of the current deal -- to between $50.4 million and $53.6 million. The cap for 2009-10, based on last season's revenues, has been set at $57.7 million. The issue isn't so much the declining cap, according to sources, but rather the overall share of revenue that players receive. Owners argued that the current system gives players an unfair split of revenues and struck the first blow in the negotiating process by advocating for a higher percentage of revenue going to the teams, a person familiar with the owners' position said. Under the current CBA, players are guaranteed 57 percent of league revenues, with any overage getting refunded to the teams through the players' escrow fund. The owners are believed to be pushing for closer to a 50-50 split. But players already are seeing payrolls shrink as a result of declining revenue related to the ongoing recession. The owners did not formally propose what share of revenue they are bargaining for, and union officials plan to review the league revenue figures given to them with their own accountants before agreeing to hold another bargaining session, which is expected to take place before the start of the regular season. The players association -- and small-market owners -- also will push for an enhanced revenue sharing model that will funnel more revenue from the big-market teams to those in smaller cities struggling with ticket sales and local sponsorships. Although it is believed that the owners already have agreed on the framework for such a model, their negotiating committee did not formally propose it on Tuesday, sources said. Owners leaving the meeting at the Omni Berkshire Place declined to comment on the proceedings. The key figures from both sides -- Stern, Silver and Litvin for the league and NBPA executive director Billy Hunter for the union -- did not comment beyond a joint statement released by the NBA. "The NBA and NBPA held our first collective bargaining meeting earlier [Tuesday]," the statement said. "The 3½-hour meeting was both cordial and productive. There was a preliminary exchange of financial information but no proposals were made. We both look forward to another meeting before the start of the season." Ownership was represented by the following members of its negotiating committee: Peter Holt (Spurs), James Dolan (Knicks), Larry Miller (Trail Blazers), Wyc Grousbeck (Celtics), Clay Bennett (Thunder), Robert Sarver (Suns), George Shinn (Hornets), Jeanie Buss (Lakers), Dan Gilbert (Cavaliers), and Glen Taylor (Timberwolves). The players were represented by Fisher, Theo Ratliff (Spurs), Roger Mason Jr. (Spurs), Etan Thomas (Thunder), Keyon Dooling (Nets) and Maurice Evans (Hawks). Adonal Foyle (Magic), James Jones (Heat), and Chris Paul (Hornets) also are on the players' executive committee but were unable to attend. Despite the owners' less-than-rosy portrayal of league finances, Fisher emerged from the bargaining session optimistic about the chances of hammering out a deal. "What was very clear in the room was the sincerity, the honesty," Fisher said. "It was different from any negotiating process I've been a part of thus far in my career. There seemed to be an integrity in the room, and everybody is really trying to do the right thing here. So I hope that'll continue."

I have shot the XD and Px4 and IMHO I like the XD on the range and I think the Px4 would be better for CC. In all fairness to the XD I shot was a full size .45 so I would say a .40 compact might be just fine for CC. Far be it form me to try and talk you of the .40 as I like that caliber myself.

everything perfect, very helpful lady!
tutto perfetto, signora molto disponibile!
Dalida is a very good person.
From the immediate impression it was positive.
The house needs all amenities and is very pretty.
Although clothing is 10 minutes from the old town house is situated in a great location and quiet.
Really nothing to say.
Recommended !!!
Dalida è una bravissima persona.
Da subito l'impressione è stata positiva.
La casa necessita di tutti i comfort ed è molto graziosa.
Nonostante abiti a 10 minuti dal centro storico la casa è sita in una posizione fantastica e tranquilla.
Davvero nulla da dire.
It is basically what you need to be in your midst, Ls snfritiona not only let you breathe but it is also attentive and helpful and I thank her personal experience as his maximum cooperation, we are grateful
Es lo que basicamente necesitas para estar en tu medio, Ls snfritiona no solo te deja respirar si no que ademas es atenta y servicial y como experiencia personal puedo agradecerla su maxima colaboracion, estamos agradecidos
Nice apartment with a lot of space for two. It's near the city centre and a wonderful supermarket is close. I enjoyed my time in Florenz.
The hostess came to us looking for the train station to take us to so great apartment, and the apartment was really comfortable. If you want to go downtown there is a bus that takes you straight about 200 meters from the apartment and back drops you at the door so well connected with the center
rest in a quiet place without tourists so quiet apartment is appreciated
La anfitriona nos vino a buscar a la estación de tren para llevarnos al apartamento asi que genial, y la verdad que el apartamento era cómodo. Si se quiere ir al centro hay un autobus que te lleva directo a unos 200 metros de el apartamento y a la vuelta te deja en la puerta asi que muy bien comunicado con el centro
demas en una zona tranquila sin turistas por lo que se agradece la tranquilidad del apartamento
Great clean apartment with nearby buses (10 "to the center)
Near a rather busy and noisy road
Welcomes the friendly and helpful host
Appartement propre grand équipé à proximité des bus (10" pour rejoindre le centre)
Proche d'une route plutôt passante et bruyante
Accueille de l'hôte sympathique et disponible
The accommodation is in a great part of the city, just outside the center but well connected by having the bus stop at 100 mt, where you will find more lines leading to the central station. The house is well kept and welcoming, Dalida is very kind and helpful. Only negative: missing a tent in front of the bathtub, if you prefer taking a shower becomes a little more complicated.
L'alloggio è in un ottimo punto della città,appena fuori dal centro ma ben collegato avendo la fermata dei bus a 100 mt ,dove troverete più linee che conducono alla stazione centrale. La casa è ben tenuta e accogliete, Dalida è gentilissima e servizievole. Unica nota negativa :manca una tenda davanti alla vasca da bagno,se preferite fare la doccia diventa un tantino più complicato.

"Oh, I know, I'll write a book! That should be easy and completely feasible within my current schedule and work load! HAR HAR HAR!" What an idiot I was, signing up for this NaNoWriMo challenge. If you're unfamiliar, the idea is you write a 50,000 word novel over the course of November. I chose to write a zombie novel I'd had kicking around my head for a few months that I decided to quit putting off. I figured zombie stuff is pretty easy to write, too: it's all "RRRaaaaagh!" and tearful mercy killings and looting. And really, that stuff just kind of runs through my head on a loop day in and day out anyway. I would just be jotting it down! I met my writing quota on the first three days and everything!
Then I went on vacation...
And it was five days of family-visiting bliss. We celebrated my birthday a few days after, we celebrated my mom's birthday a few days before, and tried to hang out with as many friends and family members as we could. In fact, it completely slipped my mind that I had a daily quota of 1,700 words.
Which meant that, when I came back, I was behind 8,500 words behind. Yikes. (Incidentally, I also came back to find I was the 36th Best Blog Source for NaNoWriMo Info after writing only one entry on the subject, proving that internet lists are well-researched as they are reliable.)
Suddenly, the thrill of the daily push to hit my quota and the "I can do this!" buzz I had been feeling was replaced with a gnawing sense of failure every time I saw NaNoWriMo's handy graph showing how I was slipping further and further behind with each passing day. I fell into a deep depression. A depression that could only be remedied by avoiding the whole thing altogether and playing Dark Souls on my Xbox. I did manage to find my way back to my Google doc and added a paltry 400 words; just enough to convince myself this month might be salvageable.
Okay, I know it's not. I know I'm in the lower decks of the Titanic with a bucket trying to keep the whole thing afloat. Still, I'm going to try and make a respectable show of it. I probably (okay, definitely) won't get published for free by hitting the 50,000 word minimum at the end of the month, but maybe I'll publish my pathetic attempt here just so I can say SOMEONE read it.
Are you a NaNoWriMo participant? How's your novel coming along? Commiserate or offer your condolences in the comments!

I feel your pain. I derailed the second week and tried to get back on track last week, but I've given it up. I got about 18,000 words before the train left the tracks.
I'll do it again next year. I'll be better prepared and I know I need to keep writing when I have the time instead of meeting the quota and stopping.
November is a short month to start with, and with the holiday in it, and the big holiday behind it, I think it's crazy to do. Good thing I'm nuts!!
I'm on track to finish this week. First time contestant, first time writer. It's definitely a commitment of time and mental power.
Last year was my first year and I won with one day to spare. This year, I'm not doing so hot. I'm struggling to hit 30,000. Hopefully, once I get over that hump, it's all downhill. My story is semi-autobiographical and I think that's my problem. I have so many stories that I want to throw in there that I'm not really moving my characters forward. Maybe tonight will be the night that changes everything.
Well, I hadn't committed myself to anything, so that's a good thing. But your blog got me writing for the first time in years!
I borrowed (stole) my daughters netbook (she's upgraded by now anyway) and bring it to work everyday. Instead of working through lunch everyday, I'm going down to the lunchroom and writing for an hour :-)
No promises on the weekends or holidays though.
One trick is to plot the thing for the preceding 11 months so you know where the story is *supposed* to be going. Not that the characters cooperate - they fight you and take their own paths - sometimes in completely different directions - but if you have a character sufficiently well-mapped, that's ok, just let the subconscious take over and tell you the story.
Not that *I've* ever finished one as of yet.

I thought I plotted sufficiently with a chapter blurb, but I really got stuck trying to create the connecting sections because I didn't have time to stop and think about it. Next year, I'll have more detailed outline with plot points and some clues to throw in (I write mysteries.)
Congrats to those who made the finish line!!
just add 50 pictures to your book. problem solved.

I'll change it from zombie novel to ASCII Art Coffee Table Book.
That was my problem on past projects. This time around, I had a general idea where to start, and an general idea where to end, but everything in the middle has been off the cuff. Trying to force the story or map it out just doesn't work for me.
I'm an eight-time contestant and eight-time winner for NaNoWriMo. Last year, I ran up a whole lotta words and hurt myself so badly in the process that I nearly had to have surgery.
That said, NaNo, like many other endeavors, is about patience, dedication and ruthless ambition. It is also about being willing to sacrifice awesome storylines on the altar of wordoucnt, about being able to stuff your internal editor into a box and keep it there and about realizing (usually around day 3) that this novel is NEVER going to see the light of day in its present form.
By the way, 50,000 words can be written in a single weekend. There are actually people insane enough to try that.
Come back next year. Be sure to participate in local events if you can. In fact, I think St. Louis has quite an active Nano community. These inspire and kick your butt to keep you going.
Good for you for trying! It is not for the faint of heart.

ya know i just ordered a super cheap rifle length quad rail form SMG.
well i noticed on my invoice it says "NO RETURN"--
well previously the only "NO RETURN" items i have bought from SMG has been ammo.
there was nothing to indicate on their item description this item can not be returned if there is some kind of issue with it.
i have bought much stuff from SMG that was utter reject and not useable at all --which i promptly returned for refund.
you got to watch these guys --ever since they went all NASDEQ and wall street they pull some dodgy "grab your money and run" stunts.
hopefully i'll get lucky and the FF rails will be OK --but i get a bad felling nearly every time i have to deal with SMG--like their trying to screw me somehow---LOL:rofl::rofl:

Wayne Law Professor Hammer Named Director of Damon J. Keith Center for Civil Rights
DETROIT (Aug. 19, 2009) – Wayne State University Law School is pleased to announce the appointment of Professor Peter Hammer as the first Director of the Damon J. Keith Center for Civil Rights. The Keith Center honors the life and civil rights legacy of Judge Damon J. Keith and carries that vision into the future through active programs of legal studies and community engagement. As director, Professor Hammer will be responsible for initiating and continuing an array of programs, including the Damon J. Keith Collection of African American Legal History and the Keith Biennial Lecture.
Judge Keith's life has been dedicated to fighting for justice and opportunity. The Keith Center, made possible through generous gifts from individuals, corporations and foundations, will allow that work to continue at Wayne Law. The Center will help the Law School attract and retain outstanding students, support and strengthen its faculty, enhance programming, and promote civil rights in one of the most culturally rich and diverse cities in the United States.
With groundbreaking for the building that will house the Center expected in the next year, the Law School is already moving forward on a number of initiatives thanks to more than $2.5 million in endowment for programming alone. The Law School recently announced the appointment of its first Damon J. Keith Distinguished Visiting Professor. In conjunction with Wayne Law's clinical program (under the direction of Professor David Moss), the Keith Center is also mapping out strategies to enhance clinical and community outreach in fields such as disability rights, small business and non-profit development, environmental justice, immigration and refugee law, child advocacy and criminal justice.
The Keith Center building itself will feature more than 10,000 square feet, meeting space, conference reception space, and facilities tailored to the needs of students and faculty.
"Professor Hammer has been instrumental in the progression of the Keith Center," said Wayne Law Dean Robert M. Ackerman. "Last summer, Professor Hammer agreed to chair a committee that developed the Keith Center program, and shepherded it through the university approval process. Judge Keith and I are confident that Professor Hammer will provide imaginative, energetic leadership to this exciting new venture."
Professor Peter Hammer, editor of the recently published Living on the Margins: Minorities and Borderlines in Cambodia and Southeast Asia (2009), has served on the Wayne Law faculty since 2003 and has been instrumental in the redesign of the Law School's growing Health Law curriculum. In addition to Contracts in the first-year curriculum, he teaches Health Care Quality, Licensing & Liability; Health Care Organization & Finance; International Organizations & Public Health; and Health Policy: The Firm, The Market & The Law.
In 2007, he served as a visiting professor at the Center for Khmer Studies, teaching in their Capacity Building in Cambodian Higher Education program focusing on Cambodia at the Margins: Minority Groups and Borderlines. The recipient of two research grants from the Center, Hammer was a founding board member and past-president of Legal Aid of Cambodia, a non-profit, non-governmental organization providing free legal services to Cambodia's poor. At the University of Michigan Law School, where he currently serves as an adjunct professor at the School of Public Health in the Department of Health Management and Policy, he founded and directed the School's Program for Cambodian Law & Development. He is also presently a Board Member of the Life & Hope Association, an organization in Siem Reap, Cambodia, run by Buddhist monks to address the needs of orphans and vulnerable children.
Prior to entering academia, Hammer was an associate at the Los Angeles office of O'Melveny & Myers, where he maintained an active practice in antitrust, health law and the presentation of expert economic testimony. Before entering private practice, he clerked for the Honorable Alfred T. Goodwin, former Chief Judge of the Ninth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals.
Hammer earned his J.D. and Ph.D. (in economics) from the University of Michigan. He is a recipient of an Investigator Award in Health Policy Research from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, and served as lead editor for "Uncertain Times: Kenneth Arrow and the Changing Economics of Health Care," a book published by Duke University Press (2003).
The Hon. Damon J. Keith was appointed to serve as a United States Court of Appeals Judge for the Sixth Circuit in 1977 by President Jimmy Carter. Prior to his appointment to the Court of Appeals, he was a judge of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan from 1967 to 1977, where he served as Chief Judge from 1975 until he was elevated to the Court of Appeals.
As a member of the federal bench, Judge Keith has consistently been a defender of the constitutional and civil rights of all people. He presided over many landmark cases, most notably United States v. Sinclair, which is referred to as the Keith Decision. In that decision, Judge Keith ruled that President Nixon and the federal government were prohibited from engaging in warrantless wiretapping because it violated the Fourth Amendment of the Constitution. The U.S. Supreme Court unanimously affirmed Judge Keith's decision.

Exactly the way to motivate people!
You have strong determination which is rather lacking for me. But I had had some hardcore training regime in summer that I was able to lose 10 lbs and now I'm just easing myself for normal life I know it's much much better to live with regularly set work-outs but for now I'd just rather do some harsh training in winter and summer breaks Not that I'm letting myself go, at the moment! IDK, maybe after this winter when my body is hopefully in great shape, then I'll start your way.
That's a great method! I totally should try that, thanks!
I need to get back on track with weight loss. Cold weather makes me carb-happy. I'm down about 20 lbs from last summer (an all time high ) and I'm hoping to lose another 20 by March, when my family is going on a cruise.
Let's do this!!
I've got your back, vesperholly!
Thanks to all for your great support, stories and advice.
I am aiming to lose 1 pound per week, so nothing drastic, but just trying to change little things that will add up.
I love www.myfitnesspal.com You track everything you eat and it gives you totals per day of calories, carbs, sugars, fibre, etc. I find it really makes a difference as to what I eat when I see it on paper/screen. Many people say that the key to losing weight is to log what you eat, and now I totally agree (was skeptical at first). It makes me think twice about eating certain things. I also weigh myself daily and those little drops of .2, .5 or .8 are very encouraging and show me it is working.
Good luck and best wishes to everyone! I know y'all can do it!!
That's a great idea.
I want to add a for myfitnesspal. I only had a little weight to lose but I just couldn't do it and it was frustrating me. It took two months on mfp to lose six pounds -- which on me make a big difference, but I'm over 50 and it's harder to lose at this age --but it really did work. Being able to track everything on your IPhone and photo barcodes from what you're eating makes it impossible to cheat!
I am proud of you and following your updates on FB! My bf is currently dieting hard in preparation for our wedding. He has lost about 9 lbs and is keeping at it. Good luck!
Thanks, Brian. Good luck to your bf and congratulations on your wedding!
Today is one week since I have been dieting. Last Monday I weighed 174 lbs. Today I weigh 169 lbs. Target weight is 152 by Christmas.
I decided to try and get serious about losing some weight in August. I wasn't overweight by the strict definition of the word, and was in a normal BMI (yes, I know that's not the most important indicator of health), but 2011 was the least active I had ever been in my life, and some extra weight had snuck up on me. Clothes fit tighter, and things were just "squishier." I was active my entire life (skated from age 6 to 28), and have naturally "skinny" genes, so I never really needed to watch what I ate, but as we all know, that tends to change as you get older. Earlier this year, I decided to start getting in shape again by incorporation running back into my life, and that went fine (found I could still run +10k even though I wasn't feeling my fittest), but I finally saw real, *measurable* results when I did the following:
Bought a scale and weigh myself EVERY morning.
Started using the http://www.mynetdiary.com/ iPhone app religiously.
Committed to doing at least 30 minutes of activity per day, even if it is just going for a walk.
Today, I'm 14 pounds lighter than I was on August 9, and would like to lose another 5 or 6 pounds. There have been plateaus, but overall my weight loss has shown a yo-yo-on-an-escalator pattern: there are small peaks and valleys, but overall, my weight has gone down, even when blips like Thanksgiving get in the way! The thing I like most about the system I've chosen is that I'm not cutting anything out of my diet. I have some friends who follow Paleo very strictly, and that type of diet just isn't for me. I don't want to have to manage the ingredients I put into my body that closely, but I am willing to manage the amounts of certain things I eat, and pay closer attention to calories and fat content. I still eat bread and dairy, I still drink beer (mostly light beers), and I still have dessert. But I plan my meals better, snack on fruits and veggies when I can, and limit processed foods.
Obviously, everyone is different, but tools like My Net Diary are what really keep me motivated. I was able to improve, and enjoy, running when I finally started using the Nike+ system. I like to be able to see results, and compare them. For me, that makes it easier to keep up with a program even when I might not be feeling so motivated to do so. It's so satisfying to be able to plug a lower weight into the My Net Diary app each morning, and that helps me stay on track.
An update: I started my diet/exercise regimen on October 8, when I weighed 174 lbs.
My goal is my optimal weight: 152 lbs. by Christmas.
Today I weigh 163 lbs. I'll continue to keep everyone updated in another week or so, as this is what keeps me with the program!
Thanks everyone, for all your support and stories. Definitely motivating for me. Good luck to all who are in the midst of dieting!
Oh wow, half way there already. Congrats! Just curious, how old are you? haha
I don't know, somewhere between puberty and death. I'll decide how old I am once I've reached my target weight.
Just a quick update: started October 8 at 174 lbs. On November 8, I weigh 162. 10 more lbs. to go by Christmas!
Hope y'all are doing well with your weight/fitness goals!
Keep up the good work, skateboy! We're all here to support you (that goes for everyone else, too )
Good luck to all sharing the stories and results here! You inspire me!
Oh goody, more Bay Area FSUers!
Pros to SF Bay Area: outdoorsy culture, beautiful natural surroundings just begging you to go out and hike / bike, also an automatic urban workout walking those hilly SF streets
Cons: so much and good food
Good for you skateboy! You can do it. Just do it smart!
That's why I obsessively power walk 3 miles a day and lift weights.
I started a little too late for the butt benefit! Mine was, is, and always will be flat as a pancake!
Thank you and to everyone else, too!
These reports keep me sticking to my diet. I did go up a little last week, but got super-serious after that. Today I am at 161 lbs. (Started at 174.) Nine more pounds to go by Christmas!
Keep going, everyone. YES WE CAN!!
Well, I blasted way over my goal for cycling - I stand at 1515.5 miles since March 10; my original goal, based on last year's result was 1,100 miles. Going to try to buck the cold temperatures as long as the ground stays clear of ice/snow 'cause there's a side of me that just doesn't want to give in and start hooking the bike up to the indoor trainer, and that side is also saying "we want 1600 miles before quitting time!" It's supposed to be sunny and in the 40's this weekend, so I think I will give it a go.
I also started walking again on my lunch hours. I used to do a lot of walking before getting caught up in my cycling craze. I figure, walking plus riding the indoor trainer over the winter will prevent me from getting enough out of shape that I will be spending the first months of riding season next year on 14-mile rides rather than just the first few weeks!
You go, girl!
My latest weight loss update: today I have finally broken the 160 lb. barrier, I am at 159 (started at 174). So far I've lost 15 lbs., with the goal of 152 (22 lbs. total) by Christmas.
I'm going to try REALLY hard not to "cheat" too much during Thanksgiving dinner!
Good for you! congratulations!
Another update: today I am at 157 lbs. Gonna try my hardest to make my Christmas goal weight of 152. But I'm pleased to have lost 17 lbs. so far.
Thanks everyone, for all your inspiring and encouraging comments!
Good for you! Just be careful about losing weight quickly. When we do that, we often go "off our diet" and gain it back quickly. So, hopefully you are losing in a way that you can develop into eating skills for life.
Agreed, cruisin. At the beginning of the diet, weight fell off fairly quickly (the usual thing that happens) and then it's been a slower process. So I'm hoping to keep control of my weight from now on, to avoid gaining it back. Exercise definitely helps.
Another update: today is December 17, one week to go on the diet. I'm now at 156 lbs., 4 lbs. short of my target weight. Not sure if I can take off 4 more lbs. in one week, but I'll stick to the plan and try to get as close as possible! 18 lbs. lost so far.
My fitness-oriented (I won't say "obsessed" exactly, but getting up for the 5:30am "boot camp" class at his gym multiple times a week is certainly not sane!) coworker swears that if you build muscle, you will burn more calories when you are otherwise not exercising. Muscle requires more calories to maintain. When you do strictly cardio, you only burn calories when you're doing the cardio.
It's true that muscle weighs more than fat, and you might see some weight gain at the beginning, but the muscles will continue to work for you in the long-term. Also, muscle doesn't squish like fat does, so you'll look better even at the same weight (or more!).
In particular, due to the prevalence of osteoporosis, I'd really love to see more ladies at the gym pumping iron! There isn't enough!
Speaking of which, today I deadlifted my bodyweight+10lbs.

I attended a Xerox analyst event last week in Grenoble, France, and was very impressed with both the setting and what I heard. Xerox is much more than the verb it was once associated with, and office workers no longer set off to get something "xeroxed." As the CEO said in a recent interview, the younger generation doesn't know Xerox as a verb. I mentioned having read this to a fellow analyst at lunch the first day of the event, and she looked at me quizzically. She didn't know what it meant to "xerox" something. Indeed, there is hope for Xerox to recast itself as much more than a copier. However, there remains work to be done.

Hello everyone!
Some of you guys might know me on the RPF (same screen name).
Been lurking on here for a while but I haven't posted anything until now. I recently started building my own Boba Fett. I ordered my armor from this thread: http://www.thedentedhelmet.com/f31/m...-40-off-43335/
I know it is more generic Mandalorian armor but I am hoping to mod it to be Boba worthy. Maybe someone can chime in that maybe knows a little better than me.
I made a Boba helmet that I've been working on but I saw this helmet: http://www.thedentedhelmet.com/f31/c...helmets-41538/ and I'm going to order one.
Anyways, I am hoping to learn a lot and become a larger part of the community.

|Congratulations... let us know in a while how you feel about the Campbell prop!
|OK, guys, I've managed to change my prop. What an effort but its done. The 2x4 block of wood sures help in getting the nuts off the shaft. The extractor did take some getting used to as it keeps dropping off (boat is surging with tide).

Dont forget that to swing a hammer underwater require a fair amount of effort, much of which is wasted. This isnt an easy task, just doing up nuts is a apian as when we are on dry land our body weight assists us, down there itb just goes around instead of the nut. Best of luck and have fun!
Keep it black side down
|Fstbttms, thanks for the write out. I'm beginning to feel the difficulty of the underwater job.
OK, here is a blow-by-blow description of how to pull your prop from someone who does it for a living. It is very unlikely that you will be able to remove the prop without a prop puller. I wouldn't even bother trying to do it without one.
Tools you will need:
Prop puller (a gear puller will be difficult to use by yourself underwater)
Pipe wrench
Flathead screwdriver
3' or 4' length of lumber (preferably 2"X2")
Small sledge hammer (optional)
1.- Pry up the ends of the cotter pin with the screwdriver. Use the pliers to pull the pin from the shaft.
2.- Place the 2X2 between the strut and rudder. This will immobilize the prop as you use the pipe wrench to remove the prop nut(s) from the shaft. Leave one nut on the the shaft near the end of the threads as this will keep the prop from falling off the shaft when it pops free.
3.- Place the puller on the shaft. Remember that you want the pulling force to be as nearly aligned with the shaft as possible. Any angle in the pull will tend to cause the prop to bind as it comes off. Snug the puller up against the end of the shaft and the forward end of the prop hub. It just needs to be snug, this is not where the pulling force comes from.
4.- Begin tightening the puller. Do not over-tighten as it is possible to break the puller. If the prop does not come off immediately, bang on the aft end of the puller with the pipe wrench or hammer. If this does not free the prop, remove the puller and rotate the prop a bit and reset the puller in a new spot. Repeat instructions 3 and 4 until the prop comes loose. Pressure, vibration and persistance are key here. Keep the pressure on and bang the hell out of the puller. All props will come off, but some just take more effort.
5.- The prop will likely pop loose quite forcibly. Once it does, rotate it so that the shaft key is on top of the shaft. Remove the prop nut and slide the prop off the shaft. Be sure to see if the key has remained in the keyway in the shaft. It may want to stick inside the prop. Either way, be aware of it as you will need to use it with the new prop.
6.- Put the key back into the keyway on the shaft (if it came out during removal.)
7.- Slide the new prop onto the shaft. Force it up hard enough that it does not slide back down.
8.- Re-install the larger of the two prop nuts. Hand tight is fine.
9.- Place the 2X2 between the strut and rudder.
10.- Using the pipe wrench, tighten the main nut as tight as you can get it. Repeat this process with the jam nut (if you have a 2-nut system.)
11.- Put a new cotter pin in the shaft and bend the ends over with the pliers. You're done!
I generally line all my tools up on the edge of the dock for easy and safe access. The puller I attach to the prop shaft with a short lanyard as it will fall away from the shaft when the prop comes loose. You can do the same with the wrench or hammer to give your arm a rest in case you're doing a lot of pounding. If the distance between your strut and rudder are too great for your 2X2 to span, you can wedge the 2X2 up against the shaft forward of the strut on the opposite side of the strut where the wood will be lodged.
Good luck!
The right kind of puller and the prop will not turn as it is self contained with a locknut and all the presure is parrallel to the shaft.
By alone I hope you mean you're the only one in the water - but that you will have a buddy on the boat/dock to assist and monitor your safety.
Some transmissions will lock the shaft, but only to an extent as Jones indicates. The pipe wrench is a bit brutal but will avoid stressing your strut if you need to put a lot of torque on the puller. Blocking the prop against the aperture or hull may transfer the forces to the strut.
Tapping the shaft with the puller tensioned is a great idea.
|Even if you are able to lock the transmission, you'll be able to turn the engine over; the starter motor can. Be a hell of deal if you were able to start it!
|bmunse, when I sail, to prevent the prop from spinning (and making noise) I put it in reverse gear. that holds it from spinning. so I assume this would in some way prevents the shaft from turning as I loosen the nuts. I'll be doing this underwater with scuba ...alone.

Diana Ross
Motown initially paired her with writer/producers Nickolas Ashford and Valerie Simpson, who gave her four Top 40 pop hits, including the number one "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" (July 1970). Ross branched out into acting, starring in a film biography of Billie Holiday, Lady Sings the Blues (November 1972). The soundtrack went to number one, and Ross was nominated for an Academy Award.
She returned to record-making with the Top Ten album Touch Me in the Morning (June 1973) and its chart-topping title song. This was followed by a duet album with Marvin Gaye, Diana & Marvin (October 1973), that produced three chart hits. Ross acted in her second movie, Mahogany (October 1975), and it brought her another chart-topping single in the theme song, "Do You Know Where You're Going To." That and her next number one, the disco-oriented "Love Hangover" (March 1976), were featured on her second album to be titled simply Diana Ross (February 1976), which rose into the Top Ten.
Ross' third film role came in The Wiz (October 1978). The Boss (May 1979) was a gold-selling album, followed by the platinum-selling Diana (May 1980) (the second of her solo albums with that name, though the other, a 1971 TV soundtrack, had an exclamation mark). It featured the number one single "Upside Down" and the Top Ten hit "I'm Coming Out."
Ross scored a third Top Ten hit in 1980 singing the title theme from the movie It's My Turn. She then scored the biggest hit of her career with another movie theme, duetting with Lionel Richie on "Endless Love" (June 1981). It was her last big hit on Motown; after more than 20 years, she decamped for RCA. She was rewarded immediately with a million-selling album, titled after her remake of the old Frankie Lymon and the Teenagers hit, "Why Do Fools Fall in Love," which became her next Top Ten hit. The album also included the Top Ten hit "Mirror, Mirror."
Silk Electric (October 1982) was a gold-seller, featuring the Top Ten hit "Muscles," written and produced by Michael Jackson, and Swept Away (September 1984) was another successful album, containing the hit "Missing You," but Ross had trouble selling records in the second half of the 1980s. By 1989, she had returned to Motown, and by 1993 was turning more to pop standards, notably on the concert album Diana Ross Live: The Lady Sings...Jazz & Blues, Stolen Moments (April 1993).
Motown released a four-CD/cassette box set retrospective, Forever Diana, in October 1993, and the singer published her autobiography in 1994. Take Me Higher followed a year later, and in 1999 she returned with Every Day Is a New Day. 2000's Gift of Love was promoted by a concert tour featuring the Supremes, although neither Mary Wilson nor Cindy Birdsong appeared -- their roles were instead assumed by singers Lynda Laurence and Scherrie Payne, neither of whom had ever performed with Ross during the group's glory days. In 2006 Motown finally released Ross' lost album Blue, a collection of standards originally intended as the follow-up to Lady Sings the Blues. The album I Love You from 2007 featured new interpretations of familiar love songs. That same year the cable television network BET honored Ross with their Lifetime Achievement Award. ~ William Ruhlmann

So, been a night sky lover as I am, I want to start doing some astrophotography. Obviously, I'll need a camera to do that. My only "camera" right now is the camera embedded in a HTC One V, so I guess I'm going to get some "real" camera first, too bad, I'm quite a beginner in photography so I'm going to need some advice from the experienced first.
I've been researching that to create a great astrophotography, I'm going to need a camera with good (very) low light capabilites, large aperture, and long shutter time (am I right?). Oh, and since I don't have telescope yet (still rocking my binocs), I think I'm gonna need a good zooming too. It seems that the peltier-cooled EOS 20d is the best in this regard, but obviously, my skill and budget is still not quite adequate to acquire such a camera. So, with the budget of about US$ 300 (preferably $200), I've narrowed my selection to :
Fujifilm FinePix S2980 (18x, 8sec max shutter time) for about $170
Canon PowerShot SX 150 IS (12x, 15sec) for about $210
Panasonic Lumix SZ1 (10x, 8sec) for about $240
Olympus SZ-10 (18x, 4sec) for about $250
Fujifilm FinePix S4500 (30x, 8sec) for about $255
Fujifilm FinePix SL300 (30x, 8sec) for about $290
Kodak EasyShare Z990 (30x, 16sec) for about $310
Canon PowerShot SX 240 HS (20x, 15sec) for about $320
Still a wide selection it seems, therefore, I have to ask you guys which one is the better one. Or should I go for another one that's not listed? Oh, and I live in SE Asia (Indonesia, to be precise), so the selection might be different with another parts of the worlds.
Many thanks for the help!

In my point of view it is better to use Canon DSLR camera for astrophotography.

It depends on how detailed you want to be; for doing shots of the moon, 15X zoom will be about right; but for stars & planets, go for as much as possible. As for shutter speeds, the moon doesn't generally need that long a setting, 100/400th of a second. Low light capabilties I would have thought would be needed for doing hand held shots of the moon or such like. Unless you're not going to use a tripod, or for some reason you need a fast shutter speed to 'stop' a fast moving object, you won't really need a high ISO setting.

The options you have shared are good enough for any kind of photography but they might cost you a lot and if you want low cost camera you have to compromise with the pixel and zoom quality of the camera. Actually DSRL's cameras are the best one for you purpose and as per my choice cannon power shot series would be best for your kind of photography as there is a great range of pixels quality and range.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
If it is circa 1980, there will be no servo motor, or speed control dial, only a clutch motor. The clutch motor's speed is dependent on how much or little you push the foot treadle. The 206 is an O.K. machine, $800 is a bit pricey but not totally unreasonable, especially if it has reverse and comes with extra feet and other accessories. If it was only used very little, the chances of there being anything wrong with it are very small. If you buy it, take it to an industrial sewing machine mechanic and have them set the tensions, set the timing, and look for worn or broken parts. It will be the best $100 to $150 you will ever spend. Also, don't trust any thread that comes with it, use old thread for practice only.
BTW, if the machine head is in storage, all you need to do is put it back into the table (connected to two hinges at the back of the bed of the motor) connect the machine to the motor with the belt, plug it in, and it will be ready to go. Have them thread the machine for you if it isn't already threaded. Standard thread is size 69, 138 is twice as thick and is not used for most sewing.
|if its a solid consew 206 800 is a descent price, I just picked up an addler and it was in the ball park of 6k.
Personally, I would take a machine mechanic with you. I dont personally work on them but, I would say look for a picture of a consew 206rb-3 should be pretty similar.
as far as a servo mottor I would be surprised, esp at that price but should have a speed control dial somewhere on the motor or table.
and back when they were made in japan lol.
Consew 206rb1?
I see someone selling a used Consew 206rb locally. I've contacted them to take a look at it. What sorts of things should I be looking for?
1) I think its an RB1, because that is the generic picture they linked to. They say they bought it new in '81. I know the older style (stamped Seiko made in Japan) is better than the newer style (made in China), but where do I see the stamp?
2) it has table but is not setup ready to go... it is boxed in storage. Can I ask to demo some stitches, and if so I should probably ask to use at least 135 thread, but I'm not sure how to thread it.
3) Check to see if it has a servo motor?
What questions should I be asking the private party?
4) reason for selling? anything wrong with it?
any pictures of a properly setup 206rb would be appreciated.
How much should I be hopeful to negotiate a price to? I'm hoping in the neighborhood of $500 since it doesn't have any support after the sale, but the seller claims it was only used off and on for a for a few years, and for the last 20 years only used a few times a year. They are asking $800 which I feel is a lot.

Using the recent slaughter in Newtown, Connecticut as a reason, the US government is mounting a ferocious vendetta against all lawful gun owners. To them , this tragedy was a Godsend. Despite all of their crocodile tears, they are as happy as can be. This horror fits into their plans.
The Government appears to have some awful plans for us that we are not going to like. A lot is leaking out about the horrors that they are planning for us. Lets look at the record:
1. The government has constructed around 3,700 Concentration Camps (the Nazis called theirs: Fema Camps). These are constructed along Highways and railroads facilitating the mass movement of thousands-perhaps millions-of citizens. These are hardened camps, fully operational and fully staffed. They are ready to go at a moments notice. See them on You-Tube or Google REX-84.
2. There are plenty of reports out there that the Government has obtained thousands of Guilitines. What are they going to use these for? Slicing lunch meat? Making baloney sandwiches? I cannot imagine any other use for a guilitine except that for which it is designed. Thousands? Check it out on You-Tube.
3. There are places along various highways that the government has stacked up tens of thousands of coffins. What are they going to do with them? In the entire history of America, there has never been a disaster that required so many coffins. There were around 3,000 fatalities after Pearl Harbor. There were about the same number caused by the Twin Towers disaster. After Katrina, I believe there were a few hundred. A ship sunk off the coast of Chicago with 800 fatalities during the early part of the 1900s. And, there have been other deadly disasters. But, there has NEVER been a disaster that required tens of thousands of coffins. What is going on? You can check this on You-Tube.
4. The government has bought hundreds of thousands of rounds of hollow point ammo. This normally would be enough to last for decades. It is illegal to use hollow points in military action, so, its not for that. Target practice? Too expensive. No, those hollow points are intended for domestic actions.
In addition to purchasing 450 million rounds of hollow point .40 caliber ammo, the U.S. government has also purchased:
Over one million rounds of hollow-point .223 rifle ammo
Over half a million rounds of non-hollow-point .223 rifle ammo
220,000 rounds of 12 gauge shotgun #7 ammo (target ammo)
Over 200,000 rounds of 12 gauge shotgun #00 buckshot ammo (tactical anti-personnel ammo)
66,000 rounds of 12 gauge shotgun slugs (tactical anti-personnel, anti-vehicle rounds)
Over two million rounds of hollow-point .357 Sig JPH (hollow-point) pistol ammo (anti-personnel)
Over four million rounds of .40 S&W JPH (hollow-point) pistol ammo (anti-personnel)
Over 60,000 rounds of .308 match grade anti-personnel sniper rounds (BTHP)
Plus, hundreds of thousands of additional rounds of .38 special, .45 auto, 9mm, 7.62×39 (AK rifle) ammo, and others. Remember that ALL of this ammo is intended for domestic use. It is NOT International war material! Some of it could be used against YOU!
5. The Federal government is currently making police units in every governmental agency. They have created an armed police force in the Department of Education. Why? Are they going to shoot students who dont repay their college loans? They have created a police for in the Social Security Administration! I see no purpose of this. Are they having trouble with Seniors? Do they need to use force against the elderly at times? I believe that they are creating police units in all Governmental departments to spread out them out so that they will not be so visible.
Today the Federal Government is federalizing local ( city, county and state) police forces. By doing this, they are creating a massive de-facto Federal police/military force that can have only ONE target--American citizens! Who else?
The Government has completely abandoned the Constitution and the only law that they recognize is FORCE! As the late Communist China Chairman Mao Tse Dung once said: Power comes from the barrel of a gun. This seems to be standard American operating procedures today.

So I'm trying really hard to get back into my armor that I started making back in January... but I get so disheartened about it when I think about how much work there is to be done, especially considering the huge mistake I made with my helmet in trying to fix the dome, and ruining the whole thing.
I actually went so far as to pull out the old helmet pieces this afternoon, and all my prop-making tools, and tried to fix it. I suppose it could be done, but there were just too many little things that I wasn't happy with about that helmet in the first place, and I don't want to just settle for something that I know I'll never really be happy about.
I still come to these forums every day and check out all the cool and new stuff that's being dreamed up and built, and I'd love to get back into it all again.... I just need to find the motivation inside myself to do it.
I need a new helmet. That's for certain. I thought about buying a kit and putting it together, or buying a cast, and painting it, but I just can't get past the idea of creating one from scratch with my own hands. There's just something about wearing your OWN helmet, as I'm sure more than a few of you can identify with. I was so impressed with the cardboard buildup that I'm tempted to go that route, but I think I want something a bit more sturdy and permanent. I need to find something a little thicker than the 1/16" garage sale signs that I used last time.
I was happy with the way my armor was turning out until I got too over-zealous with the weathering. I've about decided that I'm going to scrap what I've got, and just start fresh. I saw this great tutorial on how to shape sintra armor and use rub'n'buff: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rItYKAEbt90
I also watched a good one on weathering. The armor was cardboard, but he had some great basic ideas on weathering in general:
I'm hoping to make the armor using the heated sintra method, and then weather it using the "paint wash" method.
In any case, I know that it can be boring to read a thread that's all about "this is what I want to do, and this is how I'm gonna do this, and I hope this works" without it ever actually going anywhere. I still plan on sticking with my original desert scheme, and hopefully I can start showing you guys progress pictures. Progress pictures are what we all hope to see in these threads, right? Describing your work is one thing, but everyone likes to see pictures. I have to get my hands on some sintra material first, so I've got some shopping to do before you'll see some pictures up.
Edit: I think I found a source for some sintra sheets. What do you guys think of this stuff?

Raymond man arrested for assaulting infant
Cavan G. Moore, 26, of 125 Route 27 in Raymond has been charged with three counts of second-degree assault on a victim under one year of age and is being held on $25,000 cash bail pending arraignment in Candia Circuit Court.
Information that the infant had sustained injuries over the last several weeks led to an examination of the infant at Exeter Hospital, according to information released by police on Saturday morning.
Upon examination, medical staff at the hospital determined that the infant had suffered multiple fractures. Police allege the injuries occurred over the past several weeks at a Raymond residence.
On Friday afternoon, Raymond police detectives, the Division of Children Youth and Families and the Rockingham County Attorney's Office developed enough supporting evidence to place Moore under arrest.

Thousands and Thousands of Batteries
Look, we went a little nuts, you know how it goes, something sounds like a good idea and then you take it a little too far and then you take it WAY TOO far until it's a really BAD idea and the next day you're like "Ugh, what happened? What did I do?" The point is, we've got a LOT of batteries on our hands here. Help a dude out, huh?

Hey there Brothers & Sisters - I've been here for a relatively short while admiring the work and talent that everyone displays, wishing some day I could join the ranks of a "builder." Well.....here I go! After acquiring an ASOK Helmet with some additional extras for an UNbelievable deal I am throwing my hat into the arena. I have a Vader in my dining room, but I wouldn't call purchasing items here-and-there, light sanding and basic painting a "build." With Jango, though items will be purchased, I will have the satisfaction in the end of knowing that I will have put-forth a significant amount of time, research, energy, sweat, and even a little creativity. Spare time is little & far between, so there won't be a lot of updates, but here is what I have so far. The jumpsuit is being altered to fit me in the torso, and I am sharpening up the lines on the vacuum formed gauntlets; as well as altering them to be a bit more accurate. I am also waiting on a cod and knees from CRUZER. Unfortunately the TDH member who sold me the items didn't quite remember where everything came from, with the exception of the helmet.
Any input would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!
