This seminar functions as the companion course for the International Human Rights Law Clinic. It provides training on substantive human rights norms, exposes students to the various types of human rights work (monitoring, litigation, policy, legislation, research, etc.), encourages student to think critically about the goals and trade-offs of human rights methodologies in the context of strengths and limitations of the human rights movement, offers a structured context in which to reflect on the lawyering process, and provides students with the opportunity through student-led class sessions to present aspects of casework for group feedback and discussion (e.g. ethical problems, presentations, written advocacy, etc.).
Enrollment in the Clinic (4 units per semester) and Seminar (2 units) is by permission. Because of project demands, Clinic students may not enroll concurrently in another clinic or field placement.

Brian, my ol' pal...you must baby me along here, as you have done so many times with your words of wisdom. I have no clue what a router is, but I will ask my dear Husband, he will probably know, so that part is OK. But what I would love for you to help me out intricately with is: how do I go about painting this monster machine? I would imagine the working mechanisms would have to be removed and the baskets painted as well. But do I have to prepare the metal to accept the paint. What if the paint came off in the honey? Baby me along, bro', have that most beautiful and wonderful day, we all love our lives. Cindi
Brian, thanks for that information. Upon conversation with my Husband yesterday, it seems that he wants to buy a new stainless steel extractor. Time will tell that tale. He sees the new extractor as an investment, sometimes, hee, hee, I need to listen to this man. If we decide to get a new one, guess I will have to see if I can sell this old one, after I have made it "food safe" by sand blasting and painting, greasing the zerks with (that was an interesting word, by the way) food grade grease. That will be a winter time project, should we obtain a new one.
I did get a nice stainless steel honey tank from a dude when we were visiting my Daughter a few weeks ago. I can't remember how many gallons it holds, but it is about 36" diameter by 24" tall or so I would venture. I can't recall the capacity he said. It is pretty nice and I think that the price paid was OK, I guess....no clue what things are worth. Awesomely wonderful and greatest of day wishes. Cindi

Specialty Vehicle Financing
If you need to modify or up-fit a vehicle such as adding a crane, lift device or towing equipment, Ally has financing for your vehicle plus essential up-fits. You can choose to:
- Modify trucks, vans or other commercial vehicles with special business equipment
- Comply with accessibility needs by adding mobility lifts and right-hand drive capability
You can also include modifications with SmartLease as long as they can be removed at lease-end without affecting the original condition of the vehicle.
Commercial Line of Credit
For qualified customers who want to build their fleet, Ally can offer a pre-approved line of credit when you need it – without a fee. With a commercial line of credit, you can:
- Purchase or lease commercial vehicles
- Finance most passenger cars as well as light- and medium-duty trucks
- Preserve your bank credit line for other business needs
- Manage your total financing portfolio regardless of product
To start the financing process, download and complete a commercial line of credit application (PDF 475.8KB).
Financing in the Business Name
If you're looking to finance commercial vehicles in the name of your business without affecting your personal credit, Ally features two solutions.
Third-Party Guaranty
When you want to buy or lease vehicles in the name of your business but need to secure additional financing, you may act as a third-party guarantor. This allows you to keep your name off the title and any debt off your personal credit record.
Business name only
If your business qualifies for financing without the owner's guaranty, you can obtain financing in the business name only. This gives you the ability to save your personal credit for other use as well as:
- Build credit in your business name
- Protect yourself from liability related to the operation of the vehicle
Find a local dealer to learn more about how Ally financing works for your business.
Municipal Lease-Purchase Plan
A municipal lease-purchase plan is designed for municipalities that intend to own their vehicles. Although the vehicle is titled in the municipality's name, Ally holds the lien. Because your municipality owns the vehicle at lease-end, there are no mileage limits or excess wear charges.
Features and benefits
- Monthly or annual payment options
- No disposal fee
- $1 residual
- No security deposit required
- Most up-fits are eligible, including passenger cars and light- and medium-duty trucks
Eligibility requirements
Qualified, tax-exempt municipalities for federal tax purposes (including states or political subdivisions of state governments) are eligible.
Municipalities should consult with their legal departments regarding tax-exempt status. Tax-exempt status alone does not automatically qualify an entity as eligible.
Eligible municipalities:
- Cities
- Police departments
- Fire departments
- Sheriff departments
- Counties
- Villages
- State universities
- School districts
To find out if you qualify, see Section 103 of the IRS code.

text: Hello everyone I was wondering if I could get some help choosing between the two. I will be trading down from a 2012 Jeep Grand cherokee SRT8 in the next month or two. I love the jeep but I'm getting tired of constantly taking it back to the dealership to get things fixed, and worrying if the engine will die on me while driving. It has already done this twice and I did not even have 10,000 miles on it . As for the Subaru fans here which would be a better choice between the WRX and the STI? I've read that the STI is better if I where planning on going to the track, however I doubt than would ever happen. Now I dont know if I should totally dismiss the STI for that reason. ....and as far as research goes that's all I've really come across as far as comparisons. Help would be appreciated and thanks in advanced


text: No. ETA: They do have performance camps, but I'm not sure what is covered, aside from presentations. That depends entirely on the federation. Some cover everything for elite athletes, and most cover almost nothing. At the level at which the senior singles skaters need to be in order to qualify for this kind of funding, the answer is no, unless at least one of the parents is the coach with a rink deal for ice time, the costumes are borrowed, second-hand, or designed and made by a parent or relative or "angel", even if lots of his/her coaches' students are at the same international competitions together, covering the same lost coaching wages and travel expenses, the skater doesn't travel with any family members for competitions,and the skater doesn't have to/doesn't do any summer or monitoring competitions or Senior B's, and then maybe/possibly/probably not. Not everyone spends $150K+/year like Chan, but even so, it's unlikely that either Wagner or Abbott (see below) made enough from envelope money and competition earnings to cover their costs. At the level at which the skaters have qualified for the envelopes, seniors would have made some prize money, some of which would be spent on coaches' competition expenses and lost wages. For example, from Envelope A: Ashley Wagner (All criteria but medalist at GPF) Skate Canada (3): $9K NHK (4): $3K Four Continents (1): $15K World Championships (4): $13K World Team Trophy (3): a cut of $170K, (I'm not sure how it's divvied up among singles and teams and if placement has anything to do with it.) Total international earnings: $40K plus a cut of WTT prize money net of additional incremental expenses for international competitions, plus exhibition fees for SC and maybe NHK, 4C's, WC's. (For GP, this was $200.) Jeremy Abbott (National Champion and Top 10 at 2012 Worlds) Cup of China (1): $18K Rostelecom (3): $9K GPF (5): $4K World Championships (8): $5K World Team Trophy (5): a cut of $170K Total international earnings: $36K plust a cut of WTT prize money..., plus exhibition fees for 2 GPs. However, all of this doesn't begin to cover the hundreds of thousands of dollars skaters and families have invested before they get a dime in return.

It's all happening at once, first I learn about The Family History Show vodcast (see previous posting) and then I hear that the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland (PRONI) are launching a YouTube channel.
The channel is offering a series of lectures which are being presented in conjunction with the Open University Ireland. The first lecture is entitled "What is Irish Local History?" and the second is "Poverty".
Sounds interesting and having them on You Tube is great for us who can't get to PRONI to hear the original talks. Dr Janice Holmes has started a blog to accompany the lecture series.
The sound is a little tinny, but hey nothing to complain about when we have the luxury of top speakers talking to us in the comfort of our own homes!!

Shipping Info
Shipping Destinations
The Organization-Store.com is located in South-East Michigan and we ship world wide to over 200 countries. Our primary markets are the United States and Canada, however we do ship globally. Please see our
International Shipping Information Page
for more information about international shipments. We also ship to US military addresses (APO, FPO). We ship based on the shipping weight of the products ordered. We found this to be the most accurate way to obtain true shipping costs. Keep in mind that the shipping weight may be higher than the actual weight of the order because shipping weight takes in to account the dimensional weight (how much space the package takes up) of the shipment. For example a large plastic crate may only weigh a few pounds but it will ship at a much higher weight because of its size. All carriers use dimensional weight.
The Organization-Store.com understands that shipping cost are a concern for our customers so we try to have accurate shipping weights on our products. We have found that having accurate weights and shipping based on those weights is the best way to obtain fair and correct shipping costs. Unlike many sites we do not artificially inflate our prices to cover shipping costs. You are always guaranteed the lowest price on anything we sell.

Shipping Methods
The Organization-Store.com uses both Fed Ex and USPS as our primary small package carriers. We reserve the right to use which ever carrier or method we feel is the most cost effective method to have your package arrive in the time you specified in your shippng choice.
The Organization-Store.com attempts to ship all in stock orders received by 2:00 pm Eastern Time that same day. For expedited shipping (2nd Day or Next Day Air) we guarantee to ship in stock orders the same day if the order is received by 2:00 pm Eastern Standard Time. Expedited orders are not moved or delivered over weekends or holidays, so those days should not be counted for the expected delivery time. Expedited shipping to Hawaii and Alaska takes one additional day to deliver than the chosen shipping method indicates (i.e. 2nd Day Air takes 3 days, and Next Day Air 2 days).
Please keep in mind that the 2:00 pm same day shipping for in stock orders shipping ground is a goal that we hit most of the time but is not a guarantee. We can not ship the same day for any order where all items ordered are not in stock, or the item will be drop shipped from our vendor. Also if you provide us with a questionable or inaccurate shipping address or we will have to contact you regarding your payment your shipment will be delayed. In these cases the faster you respond to our phone call or email the faster we can ship your order.
LTL Shipping
The Organization Store sells some items that are just too big or heavy to ship via our small parcel carriers like Fed Ex. These items are identified on the individual item pages and require us to use an LTL (less than truckload) carrier. These carriers use a left-gate to assist in delivery but will only deliver to the curb near your home or business. If you would like the item delivered inside (first floor only) you may purchase inside delivery for $100.00. More complicated inside deliveries or to floors other than ground level will require additional charges which can be quoted before delivery. LTL carriers require you to be home for delivery so they will call in advance to set a delivery appointment.
International Shipping
As stated above we ship world wide to over 200 countries. All customers outside the United States are responsible for any additional duties, taxes or charges assessed by their governments. If you would like a shipment to Canada or a US territory, please see our
Shipping Rate Table
Drop Shipping
Drop ship means that an order, or part of an order will be shipped to you directly from our vendor. This is usually done to save shipping costs, and to help keep our prices low. For drop shipped items you will not see a quantity under the shipped column on your invoice. Some drop shipped items are special order, and therefore are not returnable. These items will be marked on the item page.
Incorrect Address
Customers are responsible for providing us with their correct shipping address. Fed Ex charges us a fee of $14.00 for all address corrections including incorrect or missing business names. We must pass this fee on to you if you provide inaccurate shipping information on your order so please double check your address before you complete your order.
Delivery Time
The following delivery timetable map is an estimate only, and applies only to FedEx Ground Shipping. USPS shipping may not adhere to this chart. By the beginning of December we will put a countdown clock on the site for ground holiday shipments identifying how much time you have to order to receive your shipment by Christmas. Factors such as severe weather conditions and holidays should be considered when calculating Ground shipping time.
As addressed above, in stock orders placed before 2:00pm ET will likely ship the same day. Orders placed after 2:00pm ET should ship the following business day. Please consider this when placing your order.

Yesterday NASA selected an IBM System p5-575 cluster to meet the agency's future supercomputing requirements. NASA picked the IBM supercomputer to play a critical role in many NASA missions, including new space vehicle design, global climate studies and astrophysics research.
This system has 640 computational cores and a peak performance of approximately 5.6 teraflops. A teraflop equals a trillion floating point operations per second.
5.6 trillion sounds really big. Until you consider that IBM's BlueGene/L system that is currently #1 on the TOP500 supercomputer list is 280.6 trillion (floating point operations per second).
And this really is rocket science.

Kolkata Airsoft
It's hard to find an airsoft shop in Kolkata. Typically, you'll only find low cost airsoft and knife flea shops around town. If possible, you'll want to shop online to get the highest quality stuff.
You might run into some local stores, but most of them don't have high quality airsoft guns like Tokyo Marui or G&G. Someone on a forum mentioned there might've been a shop in Mumbai called 'Airsoft World', but I haven't seen it myself. They said you can probably find some Mauser airsoft guns.
You might be able to find some stuff in Crawford Market or the Tibetan Market. These are in Mumbai and Dalhousie.
I'll update this blog with more locations if possible, but otherwise you might have to resort to buying online.

By Giuseppe Muro
Theo Walcott has been impressed with the quality of new Arsenal signing and fellow speed merchant Ryo Miyaichi.
Miyaichi's lightning pace has rivalled Walcott's in pre-season speed tests and inevitably led to comparisons between the two. Arsène Wenger has said that Miyaichi's movement and trickery resembles Walcott's while the Japanese winger's willingness to attack full-backs was evident during the Club's pre-season tour of Asia.
Walcott on the right and Miyaichi on the left is a combination that would give any defence nightmares but Walcott insists the pair have different qualities to go with their blistering pace.
"I don't like comparing myself to other players, every player is different," he told Arsenal.com. "He wants to be his own player, he is a confident lad and will hopefully have a good career at Arsenal.
"He has got a few stepovers more than me, I don't do any! That is maybe something I could bring into my game.
"If I don't come top [of the speed tests in pre-season] I'm not bothered because the most important thing is doing it on the pitch. But it will be tough to beat me, that is for sure!"
Another new addition, young defender Carl Jenkinson, also linked up with his new team-mates in Asia and Walcott says the 19-year-old has already made his mark on the squad.
After himself joining Arsenal from Southampton in 2006, Walcott knows how intimidating it can be for a teenager to move to a top Premier League club and he has been impressed with the way the right-back has settled in.
"He looks very confident and it is great to see," said Walcott. "He is not shy at all which is nice for a new lad coming in, especially at a young age.
"It's a bit daunting at first but all the players have helped bed him in and that showed in his game [in Asia]. He is very positive and I enjoyed playing with him."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

text: From HumanVictoryCigar.com With the Pistons season coming to an abrupt end, fans are in the streets, shouting for change. Fire the coach. Release/trade players. Here is a quick and dirty primer on the Pistons current roster, contracts and salaries and what this means going forward to next season. So before you propose trading Jason Maxiell and Flip Murray for KG, you might want to check this out. At Pistonsforum.com, we have an up-to-date contract listing for this season. The listing is from information gathered by Sports Illustrated and despite the fact it may read differently than other salary websites, does conform to the Collective Bargaining Agreement and should be considered to be a very reputable source for information. I have tried to keep this information as general and accurate as possible, which isn't always easy considering the many loopholes and nuances of the NBA's CBA. As always, I recommend that fans should use a trade checker (such as at RealGM or ESPN) and/or consult the Collective Bargaining Agreement FAQ. If you still have questions, I am happy to help readers find answers. Just reply to this thread. Unrestricted Free AgentsDale DavisChris WebberUnrestricted Free Agents are players that the Pistons are able to sign or simply let go. Their contracts are up and the franchise is under no obligation to bring them back however they can do so if they choose. This requires the player's approval when signing a new contract. Dale Davis is an Early Bird Free Agent under the Collective Bargaining Agreement. The Pistons can sign him for the minimum $1.2 million up to $6.1 million. A minimum contract can be for one year, any larger deal must be for at least 2 years and no longer than 5 years with 10.5% raises. Chris Webber is Non-Bird Exception player. The Pistons can offer him a minimum contract or a minimum contract with a 20% raise (based off of one year of service in Detroit). The Pistons will also have the Mid-Level Exception and can use this to sign Webber for the League average salary, projected in 2007/8 to be between $5.5 and $6 million to start. The Pistons can only use the Mid-Level Exception once this offseason and may want to reserve it for a free agent. Restricted Free Agents Alex Acker and Amir Johnson Alex Acker spent the last season playing with Piraeus Olympiacos of Greece in the Euroleague. He is rumoured to have a second year option that would pay him more than Detroit can offer, as well as provide starter minutes to build his value for his next contract. European contracts can also feature free lodging, lower taxes and other fringe benefits that are not allowed under the NBA CBA. As much as he might be able to help the team as a slashing shooting guard, the team would have to commit to him in a significant manner. With at least 3 incoming draft picks, this does not seem likely on a team which will be investing money into developing more prospects. Amir Johnson will be a restricted free agent until he is able to re-sign in Detroit. I have no doubt that the Pistons will match any incoming offers for his services, and can do so as he is an Early Bird Free Agent and falls under the so-called Gilbert Arenas provision of the Collective Bargaining Agreement. Johnson has shown tremendous upside and the patience to wait for his opportunity. Look for a deal signed this summer that will establish him as an important piece of the franchise. Players with Player initiated options All player options must be taken no later than July 1st. These players are in the driver's seat with their contracts. The team must negotiate a trade, or cut them and take a hit against the salary cap to remove them if they take their options. Ronald Dupree - One year option for the 2007/8 season. Flip Murray - One year option for the 2007/8 season. Antonio McDyess - One year option for the 2007/8 season. Chauncey Billups - Has an early termination option but for all intents and purposes to this post, is the same as a player option. Ronald Dupree is likely to return, if only because his lack of playing time has not increased his value around the league and the option year is guaranteed. Flip Murray is in a similar position to Dupree, with less playing time than the previous year he was a free agent. Strategically, Murray might be wise to take his option to see how the Chauncey Billups negotiations work out. With a strong showing next year, he would be able to get more money on the free agent market in 2008/9 either from Detroit or another team. Antonio McDyess is slated to earn $6.3 million next year. I see him taking the option because he won't get more in free agency and based on his performance will not lose any value in 2008/9 when he would become a free agent again. The man has at least one more contract in him if he choses to play longer or one well paying year if he choses to retire after this deal. Chauncey Billups will take his early termination option without a doubt. There is too much risk at his age of playing out the remaining year on his deal and possibly losing a lot of future earnings in the event of injury. Billups will be looking for a nice raise and a lot more years of guaranteed money, however the teams who can afford to pay him more than he makes now are not very good. This puts the Pistons in the driver's seat, as Billups' agent (Andy Miller) will have to find a better offer than Detroit's to have a position to negotiate from. A sign & trade is a possibility if a Western Conference team is hot for Billups and Joe Dumars can get a variety of player assets, disposable contracts and draft picks in return. However, a S&T is difficult to pull off for a franchise as cost conscious as the Pistons. Joe Dumars will not accept garbage in return for moving an All-Star unless his back is up against the wall (Grant Hill). Perhaps he can get lucky again (Ben Wallace) if that is the case. It has been rumoured that Lindsey Hunter has an option in 2007/8 to opt out of his contract and join the Pistons front office in some capacity. If this is true then it is highly likely Hunter will make the move away from the court given his age, effectiveness and the recent diet pill fiasco. Players with Team initiated options Will Blalock - Rookie point guard, has a minimum contract option for next year. Unless the Pistons have absolutely zero belief in any upside for this player, he will be back simply because he is 1) cheap and 2) already indoctrinated into the Pistons culture. Jason Maxiell - Has an option for year 3 of his 4 year rookie deal. This is pretty much a no-brainer that the Pistons will take this option, because like Blalock he is very affordable and has Pistons DNA, and unlike Blalock, the Pistons know he has a lot of upside. Stuff to remember There are rumours floating around about Zach Randolph coming to Detroit and likely more players will be added to that list. Any player who is currently under contract to another team, must be acquired in a trade. Trades must be very close dollar to dollar and please keep in mind that no other GM wants lesser players from the Pistons for their superstar. So rule out KG right now even though Kevin McHale might be the worst GM in basketball. You have to give something(s) up to get something in return. Big trades are never an easy process to complete. A little bonus coverage to follow. This is the list of Pistons and their agents as best as I could discover. You will see some of these agent names in the news over the offseason so I have listed other players they also represent. Player - Agent (other players represented by same agent) Chauncey Billups - Andy Miller (Antonio McDyess, Kevin Garnett, Carlos Delfino) Rip Hamilton - Leon Rose (LeBron James, Allen Iverson, Luol Deng) Tayshaun Prince - Bill Duffy (Yao Ming, Steve Nash, Mike James) Rasheed Wallace - Bill Strickland (Brevin Knight, Malik Allen) Chris Webber - Aaron Goodwin (Dwight Howard, Gary Payton, Jamal Crawford) Antonio McDyess - Andy Miller (Chauncey Billups, Kevin Garnett, Carlos Delfino) Ronald "Flip" Murray - Thad Foucher (Eddie Griffin) Lindsey Hunter - Mark Bartelstein (Ronald Dupree, Ron Artest, Antoine Walker) Carlos Delfino - Andy Miller (Antonio McDyess, Kevin Garnett, Chauncey Billups) Jason Maxiell - Richard Katz (Daniel Horton, Jose Berea, Vladimir Radmanovic) Dale Davis - Chubby Wells (none known) Nazr Mohammed - Mike Higgins (Louis Amundson, Marcus Banks, Tony Allen) Amir Johnson - Arn Tellum (Ben Wallace, Tracy McGrady, Jermaine O'Neal) Will Blalock - Charles Bonsignore (near as I can tell, he's a real estate agent in Ventura, California) Ronald Dupree - Mark Bartelstein (Lindsey Hunter, Ron Artest, Antoine Walker)

I think it is obvious that Christianity has become mostly benign and secularized for the most part and I don't see Christians subjugating their women and executing gays in the ways that take place in the Islamic world due to the quran and Hadith (the Hadith is the so-called writings of the prophet and his followers in which Islamic Shariah law is based from); but I see too many atheists tending to bash Christianity and giving excuses for Islam. Why is this so when according to the Islamic faith, we atheists are "kafar" should be the first ones killed before the Christians and Jews (especially me, since I am an apostate since I was "born" a Muslim); therefore, why do atheists tend to give excuses for the true evils of the Islamic faith??
Jesus Christ as a symbol (whether he was a real person or not) is a much better role model than the child molesting, murderous, and evil "prophet" called Muhammad. The Bible doesn't demand governments to be Christian but the Quran demands that all governments be Islamic by nature and the punishments are much more bizarre. In Islam, you can not even ask any questions about Muhammad or Allah but Christians and Jews are able to debate within themselves and ask questions. When a cartoon is drawn or a quran is burnt you see how savagely Muslims act throughout the world and those who are "moderate" instead of condemning the barbaric acts blame the "Salman Rushdie's" or the "Pastor" instead of placing blame on the perpetrators and culture of violence in the Islamic world. So why is it, that Christianity is often (in my opinion) overly criticized and Islam is not criticized enough when the gravest threat to the existence of the human race is surely an Islamic regime with nuclear weapons?? I'd like to get your opinions..

Great site for Jarod so he can learn a little bit: www.alisina.org
I came late to this discussion. I am glad I didn't get sucked into it earlier. I've noticed two things I'd like to share:
1. Some people want to lump extremist (i.e. medieval thinking idiot) Christians in a group with extremist Muslims as if all extremism were bad, but they do not understand that Islam has yet to have a majority tame version. The Islam that is practiced throughout the world is far more consistently violent and dangerous to human well being than Christianity post enlightenment. The conversations about Islam need to be honest about where it is in its development.
2. When Sassan starts a discussion, he is only looking for people who agree with him. This is a trend I have noticed. He will argue ad absurdum with the sole focus on winning,, not advancing dialogue. I acknowledge this as a trait in myself and will use this realization to try and improve further discourses I have in the future, because whatever that is, I don't want to be like it. It's really annoying.
In one sentence you say "Many people have disagreed with me on this thread and I have respected their opinions", and yet you continue seemingly trying to disrespect the honest opinions of others throughout the entirety of your post.
Like Ryan said, you are only looking for others to agree with you entirely. When that doesn't happen, you try to take passive aggressive jabs at anyone who holds an opinion separate from yours.
If you had been paying attention, you would have seen that I specifically mentioned that I do not give islam precedence over christianity, or favor any one religion over another. I have more familiarity with the negatives of christianity, as it is something I have to put up with on a daily basis, but that in itself does not qualify as making an "excuse" for any other religion.
Also, who are you to determine who is or isn't a "self hating masochistic excuse maker"? Again, you keep saying that you "value free speech and exchange", yet you continue to counter those statements with passive aggresive ad hominems. And to do so is only detrimental to your argument and yourself.

Jimmie Johnson says Chad Knaus' instructions were 'foolish'
MARTINSVILLE, Va. (AP) – Jimmie Johnson said it's "crazy" to suggest his reputation has been tarnished by crew chief Chad Knaus' instructions to mess up the rear bumper if he won at Talladega last week.
Knaus was recorded telling the five-time defending champion that if he won, he needed to "crack the back of the car," apparently to build an explanation in case the car did not past post-race inspection. The website SBnation.com says it obtained the recording from a fan.
On the recording, Knaus is heard telling Johnson: "If we win this race, you have to crack the back of the car. Got it?"
"Really?" Johnson replies, sounding surprised. He said Friday Knaus had never made a similar request before.
"Yes," Knaus replies. "Got it? You don't have to have to hit it hard, you don't have to destroy it. But you've gotta do a donut and you've gotta hit the back end, or somebody's gotta hit you in the (back) or something. OK?"
Knaus said earlier in the week he made the request to protect Johnson in case 500 miles of driving on the superspeedway had knocked the body of the car out of alignment, possibly making it susceptible to failing inspection.
"At the end of the day, while Chad was trying to protect himself post-race, he made a foolish statement. That's really it," Johnson said Friday at Martinsville Speedway.
He laughed at the notion his reputation was damaged when the conversation was made public, adding the story has "no bearing" on his team's accomplishments.
"Everybody in this garage area knows what this team has done to win these five championships," he said. "And our car, with the success we've had over the years, has been through the R&D center far more than any other race car. And when we've been out of line, we've been put in place."
Johnson was won 37 races in his five title-winning seasons and this year. He stands seventh in the Chase for the championship this year and is 50 points behind leader Carl Edwards. Johnson finished 26th at Talladega in a race won by Clint Bowyer.
Johnson and Knaus met with NASCAR President Mike Helton, Vice President Robin Pemberton and Sprint Cup Series director John Darby on Friday at the track, and series spokesman Kerry Tharp said NASCAR made it clear that "we're very serious" about the integrity of inspections.
"As the governing body, we just felt like we were doing our due diligence to look into this and gain as much insight as we could about the comments that (Knaus) made pre-race," Tharp said, adding that Knaus reiterated that he was just asking Johnson to cover his bases in the race.
"We've got to do everything that we can to make sure the competition is equal, balanced and fair with the inspection processes that we have," Tharp said of the sport's governing body. "We believe that we do that and we know that the competitors know that we want it that way."
Other drivers viewed the request by Knaus in disparate ways.
"Everyone is going to push the limit as far as they can, and if they felt like they were really close on tolerance, any kind of damage would help give some kind of explanation," Denny Hamlin said, noting that all the contact on superspeedways can adjust the shape of cars.
But, Hamlin said, the drivers count on NASCAR to be on top of efforts to skirt the rules.
"If there's any kind of impropriety, NASCAR doesn't like that," he said. "They don't like the wool to be pulled over their eyes and it's up to them to make sure we have a level playing field, and us, all other 42 competitors, want them to make sure that we're all on the same level playing field and they're going to do their best to make sure that that happens."
For other drivers, like fifth-place Kevin Harvick, "It's one of those things where you do what you have to do to try to win the championship and you suffer the consequences later."
Having that chance to win the championship, he said, is hard to ignore.
"I am all for doing whatever you have to do to win the championship and sometimes you have to do what you have to do and what you think is right," he said. "Some people may not agree, but at this point it is really all about trying to win the race and trying to win a championship."
Johnson said the flap might cause him to be more careful with his car, especially if he wins to avoid giving the impression that he's purposely damaging his car.
"I certainly hope to win and I guess it would cross my mind to think, 'OK, be very gentle here. Park the car,'" he said, laughing. "But I hadn't thought about it a bit."
No practice: Rain has washed out all Sprint Cup practice and most of the truck series practice at Martinsville Speedway.
Most of the laps made around the track Friday were by jet driers trying to dry the surface. One truck series session was all that took place.
Practice is critically important for the Cup cars, with only four races left in the season. A 90-minute session beginning at 8:30 a.m. has been added to the schedule for Saturday. The forecast, however, calls for rain during that period.
Qualifying and the truck series race are scheduled for later Saturday, as is qualifying for the Cup series.
The Cup series race is scheduled for Sunday, when the forecast is for sunshine.

PDQ and the OpenPrinting Database
We support PDQ through the PPD-O-Matic PPD generator and companion foomatic-filters backend filter package. What follows is quick-start information on setting up your printer with this pair, followed by some details on how it all works.
Note: PDQ computes the entire job before sending it to the printer. This means that large and/or computationally intensive jobs may involve a long delay before printing. This will mostly be of concern to color inkjet owners. For large format printers (A3/13x18inch and bigger) PDQ is not recommended, if you do not want to use one of the usual spoolers (CUPS, LPRng, PPR, ...) for them, consider direct spooler-less printing.
Quick Start
This system should work with PDQ version 2.1.2 or newer. Check that you have this installed; see the PDQ website for details.
The foomatic-rip system does not only allow printing of PostScript files, but also printing of plain text, PDF, images, TeX/LaTeX, DVI, and perhaps other file formats. For plain text you must have one of the converters "a2ps", "enscript", or "mpage" installed on your machine, for the other formats both "a2ps" (to detect the format) and ImageMagick (for images), GhostScript 6.51 or newer (for PDF) and/or TeX and LaTeX (for TeX, LaTeX, and DVI) must be installed. Most distributions provide these programs, but not necessarily all of them are installed by default. foomatic-rip will auto-detect the installed converters and automatically choose the best one.
If you have a Postscript printer, you can make use of the PPD file provided by the printer's manufacturer. You can use also these PPDs with foomatic-rip, simply use them instead of the PPD-O-Matic PPD from this site. See the "Postscript" driver page and the instructions on how to use PPD files for more information.
More detailed instructions with examples and screenshots you will find in the tutorial chapter "Foomatic from the User's Point of View: Installing a Printer" (PDF). Note that the instructions in the tutorial are for the former Foomatic 2.0.x.
|If your printer is not a native PostScript printer, you will need the driver that you wish to use installed (foomatic-rip and the PPD file only provide a way to connect PDQ to your driver). There are several styles of driver; the ones suitable for your printer will be referenced from your printer's page in the database:
|You will need a PPD file for your printer/driver, in case of a PostScript printer the one which came with the printer, for other printers running with a printer driver you should get one from the OpenPrinting database. To do this, you need to look up your printer's page in the database. When you want to use the driver which is recommended for your printer, click on the "download PPD" link in the summary box at the top of the page. For other drivers and some info about the drivers, go to the driver list at the bottom of the page. If a driver has no "download PPD" link, there is no info to generate a PPD in this driver entry, see the text of the driver entry, sometimes these drivers are covered by the PPD of another driver or the PPDs come with the driver.
|Save the PPD file somewhere reasonable (create an /etc/foomatic/pdq/ directory for your PPD files for example). Do not save it in a directory which PDQ searches for configuration files. PDQ would assume that the PPD is a PDQ configuration file and stops with an error message. Make sure the PPD file is world-readable with 'chmod a+r <file>'.
|Install the foomatic-filters package.
(If you are using a PostScript printer with a PPD from your printer vendor, you probably do not need Foomatic and should skip this step). Usually, your Linux distribution ships the foomatic-filters package (you have /usr/bin/foomatic-rip then). If not, get the foomatic-filters package from here. You need a C compiler and the Ghostscript shared library to build it. See the USAGE file in the foomatic-filters package for more information.
|If you do not have a text(and other files)-to-PostScript converter installed (see above), install one. This is used to print option documentation for your printer or non-PostScript files, so it's nice to have it right. If you have more than one converter installed and the one automatically chosen by foomatic-rip is not the desired one, edit the "textfilter:" line in the /etc/foomatic/filter.conf file inserting the name of one of the supported converters ("a2ps", "enscript", "mpage") after the colon. Do not forget to remove the "#" in the beginning of the line.
|Generate the PDQ driver description file with
foomatic-rip --ppd /path/to/your/ppdfile --genpdq myprinter.pdq
Move the PDQ driver file into one of the subdirectories of /usr/lib/pdq/drivers/ (Can be also /usr/local/lib/pdq/drivers/, check also the "try_include" lines in /etc/pdq/printrc for suitable directories). You could name the file after the PPD file from which you have it generated (example: HP-LaserJet_2200-pxlmono.ppd --> HP-LaserJet_2200-pxlmono.pdq). Make sure that the file is world-readable ("chmod a+r <file>")
|Run the printer setup wizard in xpdq, either as root to define a system-wide printer, or as a normal user to define a printer in your personal ~/.printrc.
|To get your printouts well-centered and to be able to make use of the full imageable area (the area of the page where the printer can print, most printers cannot print up to the borders of the paper) of your printer, you should adjust the printout. With a driver made especially for your printer this is usually not necessary, but som printers, as for example PCL laser printers from other manufacturers than HP since need this adjustment since the GhostScript PCL drivers are mainly tested on HP printers.
Download the alignment page align.ps (when you click on the link, the page will be displayed, please choose "File"|"Save As..." in your browser's menues to write the file to your disk) and print it. Follow the instructions on the page to do the adjustment.
|If you want to print out of PPD-aware applications as Star Office, Open Office, GIMP, ... or from a client (Windows, MacOS), use the same PPD file as you already have used for setting up your printer queue and follow the appropriate instructions.
Printing with PDQ-O-Matic
To actually use this now that you've set it up, you use the pdq(1) command. For example the command line
$ pdq -P foo1 -oPageSize_Letter -aGamma=1.4 file.ps
would print the file on letter paper with a gmma correction of 1.4.
With some printer/driver combos it is also possible to use arbitrary, custom page sizes (as long as they fit into the printer). Then you have a "-oPageSize_Custom" option which you can use as follows:
$ pdq -P foo1 -oPageSize_Custom -aPageWidth=20 -aPageHeight=30 -oPageSizeUnit_cm file.ps
You give always the width with "-aPageWidth=XX", the height with "-aPageHeight=YY", and also the unit with "-oPageSizeUnit_ZZ", where "ZZ" can be "pt" (PostScript points, 1/72 inch), "in" (inches), "cm" (centimeters), or "mm" (millimeters). If you leave out the unit, "pt" will be used as default. The numbers do not need to be integers, something like "-aPageWidth=25.5" is allowed.
To get a list of the available options for your setup, either issue the command
$ pdq -P foo1 -h
to see the options for the printer "foo1" on the screen or
$ pdq -P foo1 -odocs ~/.bashrc
to get a printed option overview page. Note that the file ~/.bashrc is not actually printed, the "-odocs" option makes the help page being printes instead of the sent document.
You can also print with the "Print" commands in the "File" menu of "xpdq". Use the "Driver Options" button then to adjust the option settings and to save default settings.
For more information on using PDQ and defining printers, consult the PDQ webpage. If it doesn't work, click on the entry of the failed job in "xpdq" to mark it, then click with the right button and choose "Show details" to see what happened. And feel free to contact us for help.
How does it work?
There are four parts to the Foomatic scheme:
- The Database
- The database contains a number of XML files which detail exactly how to execute a given printer driver. There are two front-ends which use these files: the human-readable one generates the information shown on all "Execution Details" pages, the PPD-O-Matic PPD generator computes an Adobe-compliant PPD file which you need to configure your print queue and PPD-aware applications/clients.
- The PPD File
- The PPD file generated by the database contains all information about important printer capabilities, available options and how to build the renderer's (usually Ghostscript's) command line depending on the user's choices for the options. foomatic-rip reads it to know how to execute the print job. GUI frontends read it to build dialog boxes in which the user can adjust the options. Besides the usual stuff the PPD file contains various extra lines beginning with "*Foomatic...". These contain details of the driver command line, the information whether an option accepts arbitrary numbers and not only the choices listed in the PPD file, and more. frontends and application programs ignore these extra lines.
- The backend filter
- The filter 'foomatic-rip' is called by PDQ with various inputs, including both the PPD filename and the various options selected by the user. foomatic-rip opens the PPD, extracts all options and their possible settings and also the command line to execute Ghostscript with the appropriate driver. It parses the PostScript input for option settings which were stuffed in by application programs and it also stuffs in PostScript code by itself, if needed.
- The PDQ driver declaration
- The PDQ file generated by 'foomatic-rip' contains option declarations for the various options supported by the driver (or the PostScript printer PPD file), and it contains a bit of Bourne shell code to generate and execute the proper 'foomatic-rip' command line.
PDQ supports all the option types defined in the database. Boolean values are somewhat awkwardly handled as a choice rather than a single checkbox, but they work fine.
