Parenting Plans
Talk to an attorney
The information on this page is not a substitute for legal advice. You are not required to hire an attorney, but legal matters can be complicated. Consider talking to an attorney to go over your options.
See our Finding Legal Help page for information about ways to get legal help. One way to talk to an attorney is to visit a free legal clinic. Clinics provide general legal information and give brief legal advice. You might also hire an attorney for just part of your case or to do one particular thing, rather than represent you for the whole case. Legal help is also available at discounted rates for people with modest incomes.
What is a parenting plan?
A parenting plan outlines how the parents will raise their children. It encourages you to think in advance about how you will make decisions and resolve disagreements. The result will be more predictability and stability for your children and less stress and anxiety. A parenting plan is required for shared parenting (custody) arrangements and is permitted in other parenting arrangements.
When is a parenting plan required?
The parties must file a parenting plan whenever a party asks the court to create or change a shared parenting arrangement. Any arrangement other than full legal and physical custody held by one parent is a shared parenting arrangement. Be aware that a joint physical custody arrangement may result in denial of cash assistance under the Employment Support Act, Title 35A, Chapter 3, of the Utah Code. For more information about cash assistance eligibility, contact your local office of the Utah Department of Workforce Services.
What is in a parenting plan?
A parenting plan may include any topic that you want and must include the following.
- The methods you will use to reach a decision when you disagree, such as counseling, mediation or arbitration. A parent who uses a dispute resolution method in bad faith may be required to pay penalties and attorney fees to the other parent.
- A residential schedule that shows where the child will sleep on certain days including holidays, birthdays, vacations and other special events.
- A statement whether one parent, the other, or both is responsible for making decisions about education, healthcare and religious upbringing. Other areas, such as after-school activities or clothing purchases, may be included. There are some limits to what the parenting plan can determine. The law prohibits the parenting plan from changing two principles: (1) each parent will make day-to-day decisions while the child is living with that parent; and (2), either parent may make emergency decisions for the child's health or safety.
- A plan in case one parent wants to relocate. The plan must state the amount of notice that the relocating parent will give and the changes in parent-time, such as who will pay for the child's travel and how the parent-time schedule might change.
When do I file my parenting plan?
The petitioner must file a parenting plan with the petition. The respondent must file a parenting plan with the answer. It is very important to file a plan. If you fail to file a parenting plan, the court may accept the other parent's plan by default. Parents may jointly prepare and file a parenting plan. Sometimes the court may order the parents to prepare and file a parenting plan.
What happens if I or the other party does not follow the parenting plan?
After the court approves a parenting plan, if you don't follow it, the court may find you in contempt. If the other party does not follow the plan, you may file for an order to show cause, but you must follow the plan even if the other party does not.
You may use the following parenting plan or create your own. You can also search the internet to find sample parenting plans. If you use Online Court Assistance Program (OCAP) to create a divorce or a parentage petition, you will complete a parenting plan along with your other papers.

Discussion in 'December 2013' started by roscoe36, Oct 21, 2013.
in the 4th Scola was Smith's man.
So what happened? Did Smith get lazy or was there a pick or what?
I'll go with C. All of the above. It's the same D he and Monroe have been playing at the end of games all year. That's how you earn trust and PT on this squad.
He will get tagged if the reviewers feel he is the most responsible player. It's only a bad system if you don't think that other people are capable of analyzing a basketball play.
You jest, but am I alone in wondering how a hobbled Bynum seems to easily get deep into the paint on a pick and roll and Jennings can't? I mean.....I don't think Bynum is any quicker than Jennings but for some reaso Jennings looks very ...... eh, running this play. For the last half of the 4th. But there was a good portion of the 4th where Moose and Harrelson where upfront. I watched the replay and simply watched Scola because I truly was wondering how he kept getting left WIDE OPEN! It was usually because guys were watching Paul George, they were so focused on keeping an eye on him so that they could help KCP that they just turned their back on Scola while he drifted out to his favorite spot on the court......their second big would then stand in between Scola and the different defender so that when Moose or Harrelson tried to recover they ran into a pick. It was pretty good coaching to take advantage of such bad defense.
9:31 Monroe's man Mahinmi rolls to basket. Jorts steps to cover Mahimi in paint. Scola flashes to elbow. drains a jumper 9:06 Pacer guard penetrates under basket. Scola runs to free throw line. Mahimi screens Jorts who turns to face the guard. pass to scola open at free throw line. Scola hits as Jorts recovers. 8:37 Scola is Monroe's assignment. Scola cuts hard from elbow to top of key. Mahinmi sets screen Separation from Monroe is impressive and screen guarantees open shot. Scola misses from top of key 7:43 Scola is covered by smith. Smith floats under basket. Scola drains it at elbow 7:02 looks like Smith playing zone while everyone else is going man. Scola at top of key. Smith under basket. Singler rotates. Scola misses thanks to Singlers superior defensive presence 6:25 Pacer guard burns Jennings and Moose. Smith rotates. Pass to Scola for bunny. 5:56 fast break Scola on wing. scores a jumper. 5:15 Moose recovers on Scola really well. shot clock violation
some defensive lapses. but credit the Pacers and Scola for playing great. The guy knows when to flash, when to float and the team was setting off ball screens to get him open. Like Kgreg said, the team was focused on other guys and Scole made them pay.
Picking your poison happens on a huge percentage of defensive plays. Defenders will look silly sometimes when they make educated guesses. We have smart players who are big and athletic... but new to each other.
I was shocked to see that Singler has the highest O-rating on the team (per basketball-reference.com). Also, FWIW, Datome has some jaw-dropping splits on 82games.com. Actually, the splits on that site are weird; there's a -.07 correlation between net production and on court/off court net for the Pistons.
This is true... and if Indiana's route to victory goes through Scola nailing a bunch of 20-foot jumpers, that's a loss you're going to have to accept.
Two great games in a row where smith focused on the block on offense. Please let it be Mo directing and adapting.
The fact that Lance Stephenson went home angry and upset last night was good enough for me. I don't normally hate on any players...other than Kobe, but him yelling at Dre on the courts and whooping it up after hit a three to bring them within 2, put him on my list.
The fact that this has happened has made me really happy. I've been pretty down on Cheeks, but the players do seem to be making adjustments and the team does seem to be improving.
It's because Jennings doesn't know how to execute a pick&roll. Last night Smith set some extremely good picks for him and he just got lost in his own dribble and nothing happened. See it all the time.
Jennings has zero ability to go right, which limits him greatly on pick and rolls. So in that respect, us fans are not getting what we expected, a top notch pick and roll guy. (that was the conversation as the trade was made.)
HUUUGE WIN!! We have now beaten the Pacers and the Heat in their own house and really should have held off Portland at home. Some real bad games mixed in there this season, but it's games like this that show the promise. Sure the Heat were missing Wade and the Pacers, Granger, but we were also without Stuckey pretty much in both games (it still feels weird writing about him positively, but he deserves it this season). This big win came on the back of Australia winning back the Ashes from England in the cricket after 3 successive defeats, so I'm riding a sports high at the moment!!
Singler is by our best perimeter defender, when it comes to closing out on shooters, by far. He's also our best team perimeter defender in that he'll even close out on OTHER guy's shooters. The kid just flies around the perimeter bothering shots, which is not to be despised. He's not our best on the ball defender, but he does force his man to either take a longer route to the basket, or drive into his help. Our perimeter defense needs to be better. Jennings and Silva need to stop ball penetration. They give paths to the basket like they're tour guides. Stuckey needs to actually close out on a shooter, at least just once in his life. He could think of it like going to Burning Man. Josh Smith needs to close out better. BOTH Moose and Dre take far to long to recognize where the penetration is coming from. When they do see it, they either come too early, which gives up an easy pass, or they come too late, which does no good.
Bynum is looking to go hard. He'll either get the lob or attack the basket. He's not afraid of contact, and might even get and And-1. Jennings is looking for either a wide open lane or space to pass or shoot. He's not looking to get deep into the paint. He can only finish with one hand, and he can't finish at all after contact.
Oi Oi Oi!
Pacer had fan had to be stewing in dewdue after that lost. It might be back on again.

We've seen the wooden "choose a seat, not a side" sign one too many times these days. But that's okay — it's quite popular! Whether you want to give guests directions, broadcast a message, or simply add a personal touch to your decor, a little functionality, lovey dovey-ness, and a whoa lotta cute goes a long way. A few of our favorite awesome ideas? Marquee lights, customized flags, window panels, laser cut outs, yarn art, and painted mirrors.

*My ticket into the Shirts on Sale Sad Rat Race
Bah! Missed this shirt? To buy it, click here!
two monkey shirts in three days on brown?
I mean, I know woot didn't plan the derby entries or winners. it's just odd.
Great shirt..........Congrats!!!!
very brown and interesting shirt.
What's with all the brown shirts? I like this but I have a collection of brown Woot shirts already.
Love the shirt, although the Fez is not Masonic >.> Its The Shriners. My father is one/both so I kinda know, llo.
Id buy it if I wern't a poor college student with negative dollars.
Hahahaha I'm so sold on this one.
oh noez radioactive monkey
Masonic Dyna-monkey? I give the artist credit for originality.
Either way, I don't really like these colors.
Awesome, in for one.
awesome shirt...i'm in for one!!!
peculiar and creative... but brown? Who am I kidding; even if it were on a more appealing color, I still wouldn't spring for it.
There's a such thing as too many monkey shirts. Can't we please, pretty please have some other critters out there?
i was kinda bummed that i was broke and would be living on the free coffee at work and ramen noodles until payday on friday.
now i am truly sad
why dont i have $10 in disposable income?
i suck.

without doing any research....aren't the shriners a sect of Freemasonry?
Why wear a shirt bagging on the Shriners?!?...
I like this but....
This is NOT going to be my frist shirt.woot :P
(besides im kind of broke from the woot off)
even though the fez is for the shriners (or the grotto if its black) all shriners are masons its one of the requirements for joining, the majority of the symbols in the background with a few exceptions are those of other groups also.
i think the shirt is awesome, but i hate that it is on a brown shirt...i still might buy one later though
*sigh* STOP DESIGNING ON BROWN AND ASPHALT SHIRTS ALREADY!!
monkeys are the awesomest
come to terms with your denial of this one truth
stupid monkey haters
Ahhhhhh. So very tempted. So, sooooo tempted.
I think it's the green glow. Man...
So this is a National-Treasure-loving monkey, in time for the release of NT2 on Blu-Ray?
It's kind of a cute monkey, and the Mason underworld is interesting, but enough brown.
Shriner Burn Centers have done a lot of good for kids - f that shirt!
Now this is the kind of shirt i would consider getting.
First shirt I ever bought without checking the design in detail, and first time I bought 2 of one design.
I don't think one can become a shriner without first being a mason.
Suh WEET!!!!
I get to wear this shirt out on the town whilst shaking my screaming blue Woot!® Monkey at everyone! Maybe this time I will finally get sent to the white padded room. Thanks etherbrian... it's all your fault. Awesome job btw!
Thanks! Awesome shirt. I got one.
Sort of random, a monkey wearing a fez with strange cult-like symbols, but the colors really pop on the brown. I like how the cute little monkey looks so serious.
Oooh! Monkey!
Awesome shirt. In for one!
This shirt makes no sense to me.
I hate monkeys. I *HATE* monkeys!
sweet shirt, had to have me one!!!
ok if you people don't see the hole mason thing going on ur freaking nuts and also the shriners and all the symbles going on.
totally awsome, in for one
monkey IN IN IN IN IN IN IN IN IN IN space

I wouldn't call it an underworld. The guild isn't very restrictive on who they let into their ranks...apart from having to be male that is.
Seriously, I have a friend who didn't even know it but someone had already got about 50 people willing to vouch for him. That someone was a friend who pretty much had said he had an open invitation that he could join whenever he wanted.
Nice pallete. I really like the bright greens and red on brown. The design isn't my taste though.

Ronnette Riley, FAIA, was practicing universal design long before the term was coined, and while she admires the intent of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), she takes issue with some of its content. As was the case for the owner of this apartment in New York City's Upper East Side, prescriptive standards aren't always the best solution. Handrail specs are one example, she says. "They are so big that a small person's hands can't comfortably grab them, but the rules are specific and can't be altered." Riley complied with ADA for this reconfigured kitchen and bathroom, but customized details throughout the apartment to serve both the husband's recent physical disability and the wife's diminutive stature. Updating the apartment and increasing natural light penetration were also high priorities for the owners. "The apartment hadn't been touched in 25 years," says Riley. "It was a rabbit warren of a lot of little rooms."
"The kitchen was originally in the back and cut off by a butler's pantry," she explains. "We flipped that plan and took about 3 feet from the dining room to open up the kitchen." Three sliding frosted glass panels and one pivot door enable kitchen and dining to maintain separate identities or merge into one contiguous space. The dishwasher was raised off the floor and the microwave set in a cubby just below counter height, making both appliances accessible without bending or reaching. Materials with a little give (Corian, Marmoleum) were selected for horizontal applications. "The owner was concerned about falling, so we wanted soft surfaces," says Riley, "but they also had to be smooth to ease walking."
Upper cabinets were eliminated except for a few near the stove; their elongated doors put lower shelves within daily reach. A long counter runs the length of a widened hallway, connecting kitchen to laundry room/pantry. The counter remains open underneath to park a wheelchair, but also helps steady the husband as he walks about the unit. Grab bars turn up in one form or another intermittently from the master bedroom at one end of the 2,500-square-foot plan to a desk overlooking the East River at the far end. The custom hand-holds were integrated into the architecture, says Riley, so the spaces wouldn't "look like hospital rooms."

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. - The 2012 University of North Carolina men's lacrosse team was honored last Friday at the annual team banquet held at the Carolina Club in the George Watts Hill Alumni Center. Senior attackman Marcus Holman and 2012 alumnus Mark Staines, a defenseman, were each honored with two team awards.
Holman, a senior attackman from Baltimore, Md., won the Turnbull Trophy as the team's overall most valuable player as well as the accolade as the squad's most valuable offensive player. A second-team All-America and first-team All-ACC selection, Holman had one of the most decorated offensive seasons in Tar Heel lore. Holman tallied 39 goals last season, the eighth most in a single campaign, had 35 assists, the fourth most in a season, and led the Tar Heels with 74 points (30 more than the second place point producer). His 74 point have only been exceeded by Bruce Ledwith's 81 points in 1973 and Dennis Goldstein's 75 points in Carolina's 1991 NCAA championship season.
Mark Staines, a 2012 alumnus and team tri-captain last year with Holman and Charlie McComas, captured both the defensive most valuable player award and the Ralph T. "Rip" Davy, III Memorial Award for Senior Leadership. Staines toiled as one of the stalwarts of the defensive midfield for four years and also played some short stick midfield and did long-stick face-off duties during his time. The Gambrills, Md., native was the fourth Staines brother to play at UNC joining Ronnie (2001-04), Billy (2003-06) and Ben (2004-07).
Junior midfielder R.G. Keenan of Perry Hall, Md., won the Holmes Harden, Sr. Memorial Award for most ground balls for the second successive year. As a sophomore in 2011, he was named a first-team All-America. He led the Tar Heels in ground balls with 102, running his two-year UNC total to 211. Keenan won 205 of his 340 face-offs in 2012, a winning percentage of .603. He had three goals and two assists on the campaign. The 102 ground balls are the ninth most in a single season in UNC history while the 205 face-off wins are the fourth most in a single campaign.
The Needham Unsung Hero Award went to junior midfielder Ryan Creighton of West Chester, Pa. Creighton was an honorable mention All-America last season. He has seven goals, six assists and 20 ground balls in 2012 while playing both offensive and defensive midfield as a short-stick.
Three Tar Heel players from 2012 shared the Jay Gallagher Memorial Award as the outstanding freshman on the squad - attackman Jimmy Bitter of Stowe, Vt., attackman Joey Sankey of Warminster, Pa., and midfielder Chad Tutton of Courtice, Ontario. The duo ranked 2-3-4 in scoring on the UNC squad in 2012. Sankey had 22 goals and 22 assists for 44 points while starting 15 games, Bitter had 27 goals (the most by a true freshman since 1973) and 14 assists for 44 points. Tutton was fourth on the team in scoring with 20 goals and six assists for 26 points. He was the leading goal producer in the midfield. He scored at least one goal in each of the last nine games of the season. Bitter copped honorable mention All-America honors and all three were named to the All-Tournament Team at the ACC Tournament, the first time three freshmen from one team have made the squad.
2012 alumnus Thomas Wood (Dallas, Texas) won the Class of 1986 Dan Andrews Sportsmanship Award. He finished his career with 66 goals and 39 assists for 105 points. He finished his career 33rd in points and tied for 30th in goals.
The Kevin Reichardt Memorial Award as the Most Improved Player was garnered by senior defenseman Kieran McDonald of Rye, N.Y. McDonald started 16 games for the Heels last year and led UNC with 16 caused turnovers while also being among the team leaders in ground balls with 38.Sophomore Matt Shannon of Ridgefield, Conn., won the Dick Baddour Academic Success Award for having the highest grade point average on the team during the 2011-12 school year. Athletic trainer Nina Walker was presented with the Danny Fox Memorial Award for Service to Carolina Lacrosse.

Chelsea Smith Helps United States Advance To Finals
PLOVDIV, Bulgaria - Former Drake rower Chelsea Smith (Edina, Minn.) helped the United States advance in the lightweight senior quadruple sculls at the 2012 World Rowing Senior and Junior Championships in Bulgaria yesterday.
Smith along with Hillary Saeger (Dedham, Mass.), Michelle Sechser (Folsom, Calif.) and Lindsay Hochman (Seattle, Wash.) qualified for the final on Saturday after they took second in their heat with a time of 6:49.57. They finished behind Italy (6:45.88) and in front of Sweden (6:50.68), Korea (6:57.60) and Japan (7:03.36).
Smith, who rowed for Drake from 2006-10, won a pair of bronze medals this past October at the XVI Pan American Games in Ciudad Guzman, Mexico.

Not sure if anyone remembers the fiasco I had back in October/November with having ordered a set of boots from CABoots - the short version is they sent me suede and din't tell me they were changing them. :thumbsdown
I know - not accurate at all. So I sent them back to the company and asked for either a refund, or a new set made from propper materials and some of my input and reference photos. After six long months of research on materials and looking at photos, I have finally received a replacement pair made of canvas. They were sent in a natural color canvas since I told CABoots I would handle the color and weathering myself. Here are some pics of them painted and weathered. I would love some feedback from some people. I know the elastic section is a bit large, but since I have a set of Man of War's boots on order, I can live with this for now.
What do you guys think?
The company has informed me that they will be reopening a factory in Mexico, and using this as a template for their boot, but that the materials may be slightly different. So I have a one-of-a-kind boot for the moment. :thumbsup:fettrotj

Thanks G0tMi1k for the video,
I have been trying it however, I got first stuck on compiling the Open****V2.c; and your video helped me in solving it. However, when I ran the exploit against the target, it is not always returning the suid shell; which is weird. I tried running the exploit 6 times, and only got the shell once.
Have you faced such thing? I am using BT4R2...
Thanks again

|Topic Review (Newest First)
There a very good chance that Libby won't be replying, since the thread is SEVEN YEARS OLD. More likely than not, most of the people in the thread either have boats now or are no longer sailing. Please check the dates on a thread before replying. And please read this post to get the most out of your time on sailnet.
Sailing in General
Libby - I don't know what your sailing experience is, so I'm just sharing information - not trying to tell you what to do. I've owned and sailed three sailboats (SB) in the San Francisco bay and local areas over the years (one with tiller, two with wheel steering - up to 35'). The only action I ever took was to buy "Sailing for Dummies" to learn sailboat nomenclature and how to sail. As an owner of your own boat - you're the Captain and are not required to take lessons from anyone. Having said that - I've owned a number of power boats in past and any SB with a motor is a powerboat first - so nothing new to learn there except handling characteristics while motoring. I'm extremely independent and after watching others take lessons (at schools for + $1,500 a pop) I felt I could do as well on my own. Frankly, there is absolutely no substitute for hands-on experience. I tore my mailsail twice putting it up full in too-heavy air - BUT - I learned how to remove it from the mast, have it repaired, and put back on again without assistance (and double check wind speed forecasts in future). In SF, repair shops are pretty inexpensive if you bring the sail in yourself - which should hold true just about anywhere. That's the only real problem I ever encountered. Well, there was that time the gib halyard broke, and I had to go forward while underway and haul the gib down by hand and stuff it in the forward hatch - but that was a learning experience as well. Study the rules of the road and you're on your way. I would encourage you to go online and start reading "Latitude38" (latitude38.com). It's the premier magazie (free) for sailing world-wide. It has a planet-wide following and is an absolute hoot to read the 'Letters' section as there are no holds (or opinions) barred there. Tons of practical tips and good bargins on used items. Best advice - watch other SB's and talk to other SB owners - never be shy to ask questions. Best tip on doing things to your boat? - Walk around the marina and see what others have already done to theirs - pick up a lot of pointers that way. Another item - have your boat "Coast Guard Documented" rather than register it thru the state (you can download the info and application). If you plan to cruise outside the U.S. - other countries view the CG Doc as a better indicator than a state issued number - and you don't have to buy or paint numbers / alphas on the bow. You'll be issued a "running" letter from the CG and keep that onboard. After years of manhandling 35' boats (9,000lbs +) - I've decided I no longer need to entertain parties of 7 or more people, and I'm shopping for a pocket cruiser myself - I've found a nice 24' that I like a lot. The reasons: Trailerable (store on the hard - not in the water), NO: inboard motor, filters, oil changes, repair and maintence, transmission, prop, prop shaft, stuffing box, zincs, generators, starter motors and batteries, constant bottom cleaning, and that's just my short list. Most marinas in CA have storage for your boat with free crane (work it yourself) or ramp launch, with free rinse for the boat and OB motor + free use of all of their facilities. There are any number of excellent coastal sailing references published by those who sailed the water before you. Ensure you always carry applicable charts for the area you're sailing and you should be OK. If you haven't done so, you might want to consider an inexpensive navigation lesson - but I'll bet there are any number of SB owners in any marina that would be willing to teach you for nothing more than an exchange of good conversation. Now I'll shut up and you can go sailing !! John

I''m looking for information on Jay Benford Dories esp. the 34 and 37.5 junk rigged sailing dories. The only two I can find are Moondancer and Badger. Anybody know where these boats may be located? Generally I''m looking at junk rigged boats. Any info. would be nice to receive. Thanks

Hi: There is so much to do and so little time. I am a great lakes cruiser and have just purchased an old Ericson 39. She has just returned from 4 years in the carribean and has a lot of goodies on board. My question is where does one start to organize a piece-meal trip south to Bahamas. I want to spend about 4 months a year down in the south (winter). Does anyone know where I can get information on Erie Barge Canal - Hudson River and charts to go outside down to the Chesepeake. Is this a good summertime venture? How long would it take to go from Annapolis to Florida? You see -so many questions and so little time.

Actually, with a PHRF rating of 234 the Tartan 27 would be noticeably faster than the Vega at 246. The keel/cb on the Tartan would result in better upwind performance and raised would result in better performance as well. The centerboard can be adjusted to balance the helm under way as well reducing weather helm.
While the Vegas have a strong cult following they have never had any great appeal to me. I have never actually seen an article or heard of one doing either a transatlantic or a circumnaviagtion voyage but that does not mean it did not happen...it just means I haven''t heard of it.
Intermediate sailor seeks advice re: liveaboard pocket cruisers
Hi Jack. Well I took your advice and am strongly considering buying a Vega 27. I have made an offer and we are in negotiations. This one has been dry docked for about 15 years, but appears to be in good condition, as it was kept covered. It has a new diesel, but I would have to complete the installation. I also need to install a holding tank. One reservation is the lack of headroom forward of the main bulkhead, as it would be cramped for living aboard, but it is the first boat I have looked at that I really want to SAIL. Guess that''s what they are for, after all.
You mentioned they routinely did transatlantic crossings. Do you know of any circumnavigations? Are they designed to be offshore / bluewater cruisers? Should I have a lot of confidence in it''s seaworthiness? What boat might be a good comparison? I know the Tartan 27 is much heavier and keel/centerboard, but how would the 2 compare as far as coastal - blue water cruising ability?
Any further suggestions are most welcome from everyone. I am really grateful for the network of support that this message board has provided. Thanks for everyone''s feedback. Happy sailing, -Jen/"Libby"

That will teach me to respond to the "Messages since last visit". I assumed the discussion was of the Westphal 32 One design. Sorry folks.
Intermediate sailor seeks advice re: liveaboard pocket cruisers
Westphals are open boats and are not liveaboard pocket cruisers and in fact are not even cruisers.
Intermediate sailor seeks advice re: liveaboard pocket cruisers
The Westphal sounds interesting. How might I contact the owner? Where is it located? Thank you for the tips.
Intermediate sailor seeks advice re: liveaboard pocket cruisers
Try http://www.goodoldboat.com
They have excellent articles on older boats all fairly cheap.
For a small Boat I would advise a Flicka or a Yarmouth 23, this is based on me just loving the little craft. A they have alot of room.
Although Alburgs and Tartans are good also.
I know where there is a 35 ft Westphal center cockpit {older} with all gear that has fore and aft cabin. Its in bad need of paint but older couple needs to sell it due to health reasons. Is in water but un used in about 3 yrs.. cost I think around $5000
Ive been in the boat as of late and it would be a great liveaboard, with TLC.
And the boat is capable of Blue Water in the right hands.

The Center for Ribosomal Origins and Evolution (Ribo Evo), was established at Georgia Institute of Technology in February 2009 as part of the NASA Astrobiology Institute (NAI). The NAI is a partnership between NASA and its NAI Teams located at academic institutions such as Georgia Tech, research laboratories, and NASA centers. Together these teams work to define and conduct integrated interdisciplinary research and education in astrobiology. The Georgia Tech team is lead by the Center's Director and Principal Investigator, Dr. Loren Dean Williams. In addition, co-investigators and collaborators from Georgia Tech, Emory University, John Hopkins University, the University of California at Santa Cruz and the University of Houston form the team.
The history of life is strongly imprinted in extant biochemistry. Life's amino acids, peptides, nucleosides and nucleic acids are initially derived from a prebiotic molecular inventory. The oldest macromolecular assembly of extant life is the ribosome. It is a molecular fossil that can be considered the Operating System of Life. The ribosome tells the story of some of life's aboriginal molecules, assemblies and chemical reactions. Using the ribosome, we perform molecular paleontology - mining of biophysical and inorganic chemistry from ancient biological systems. We perform molecular resurrection - the construction and expression of extinct proteins and RNA. We will rewind the "tape of life": to recapitulate the initial synthesis of proteins by RNA.
We aim to uncover clues about key steps in the transition from the putative RNA world to the RNA-DNA-protein world. Our work carries the potential of discovering and characterizing the oldest traceable macromolecules and machines of life, and the earliest discernable connection between RNA and protein.
The Center's research is originated into four main areas:
1. Characterizing macromolecules and assemblies of living systems both in extreme environments and from the distant past.
2. Characterizing the machinery of peptide synthesis to determine and recreate key steps in the transition from the RNA world to the protein world.
3. Uncovering clues as to the nature of the peptide synthesis machinery that was operational during life's transition from non-coded to coded peptides.
4. Discovering and characterizing the oldest traceable macromolecules and machines of life, and the earliest discernable connection of the RNA world to the RNA-protein world.

a place for zinesters - writers and readers
I read my buddy's zine, Coffee and Board Games, the other night, and in there somewhere a kid tells a story about how Columbine affected his life. It made me think about how it affected mine. It made me think about how certain events affect all of us.
I think I'd like to start a new zine. Each issue would have 5-10 contributers, and each issue would focus on a different theme. Possible themes would be Columbine, 9/11, Obama being elected, Michael Jackson passing away, Hurricane Katrina, etc etc etc.... ?? Any well known event, good or bad, that affected a lot of us. There would be no designated viewpoint or political objective, but rather the point would simply be to hear a variety of stories and viewpoints.
Any interest in this? If so, let me know. It's good to document this type of stuff, I think. In 100 years some kid will do research on school shootings, or presidential elections, and our voices will be appreciated.

The virtue of living in a democracy is that everyone can spout their ideas without being silenced. A problem living in a democracy is that every congressman believes he has the necessity of telling the world his views on how to handle other nations forgetting that his words will be printed all over the world. Congressman John Murtha is a former Marine who has a tendency to let loose with comments that most probably never should be uttered in public. He told the media if the Taliban gained power in Pakistan, he would recommend that the American military should bomb Pakistan nuclear sites to take out the nuclear bombs. "What I worry about the most is if the Taliban were to destabilize the (Pakistan) government. We think we know where the weapons are, and we have to be prepared if it goes the wrong way to destabilize the sites."
OK, Congressman Murtha, the United States might have to do what you propose, but do you have to tell the people of Pakistan they might be bombed by the United States? Exactly, how do such statements get received in the Muslim world? Remember what your folks told you, remain silent and think carefully before you speak?

has anyone taken a columbia 28 offshore cruising or coastal cruising,or know antone who has?
Best Hull type?
''navigator, although I can see it''s too late: the right place for your handbills is the <font color="green">Crew Wanted</font color> forum on this site.
Best Hull type?
I would love to find someone with whom to share the renewal of this dream of yesteryear. I can easily pay my half, am an excellent cook, speak Spanish and French and my passion is travel.
Best Hull type?
The cape cod catboat looks like a very possible contender as a practical design for what I want.
I like the raisable centerboard design making it possible to sail into shallower waters.
Thanks for the suggestion. I''m going to have to research that one some more. ;-)
Best Hull type?
Having had an evening to think about this, and having seen and been reminded of your earlier discussion about using plywood construction, I had a couple of additional thoughts to throw out here. From your description, I would suggest that there might be a few designs that you might want to investigate. The first would be the Cape Cod Cats. Cape Cod cats were designed for use in the frequently choppy waters around the Cape. They were meant to be be capable of withstanding a wide range of conditions. Most had a small cabin and large open cockpits which would be well suited to your goals but they were generally considered good boats. They sailed well in moderate winds and seas. While they are often cited as easy boats to sail, they could be a real handful in a stiff breeze. Like most beamy boats they did tend to build up enormous weather helm when heeled. They were centerboard boats and so you could play with the centerboard to ease weather helm a little, albeit at the price of greater leeway. While the Cape Cod cats had a comparatively comfortable motion for a boat that was that beamy, they still had a pretty quick and pretty rolly motion. Catboats have enormous sail areas and so their sails tend to be expensive and require a fair amount of effort to trim properly. Traditional Cape Cod cats were gaff rigs with an enormous single mainsail that extended well past the transom. As external ballast was added to Catboats, they began to use marconi rigs.
When I worked for yacht designer Charlie Wittholz in the early 1980''s, I got to work on some of his plywood catboat designs. I found that catboats were extremely hard to design well. If you study the lines of a tradtional Cape Cod cat they are surprisingly finely modeled in the water. Good plywood catboats are even harder to design well. Charlie was probably the best designer of plywood catboats. I would suggest that you take a look at his Madam Tirza design which is available from WoodenBoat Magazine pretty inexpensively.
These are comparatively easy boats to build. They are quite robust. The outboard rudder is reliable, as well as, cheap and easy to fabricate.
One thing about catboats (or any boat that beamy) is that they can be capsized and they do not come up once overturned. The rule of thumb in sailing a beamy boat in heavy air is ''never cleat the mainsheet. In other words Catboats are not idiot proof designs, but no wide beam, heavy boat is.
Another boat that you might look at were the Ellis designed Nonsuches. These were a rethinking of the Cape Cod catboat idea. Ellis did a brilliant job of mitigating many of the problems inherent in Cape Cod cats. The Nonsuch took the basic catboat hull form and narrowed it a little, raised the topsides, added a marconi mainsail on a freestanding spar, a fin keel and a counterbalanced rudder. This improved helm balance and windward performance, as well as, the ease of handling and increased the angle of positive stability quite a bit.
These were very nice boats all around. I suggest that you look at the Nonsuch 26. http://www.yachtworld.com/core/listing/pl_boat_detail.jsp?currency=USD&units=Feet&checked _boats=1300584&checked_boats=1355377&checked_boats =1289047&checked_boats=1303927&checked_boats=13927 01&checked_boats=1344118&checked_boats=1297454&che cked_boats=1266324&slim=quick&
The only problem that I have with Catboats for your intended purpose, even ones that are as well thought out as the Nonsuch 26''s, is that as catboats, they cannot be hove to and you lack a jib to use for balance in a breeze.
I do want to clarify that I am not literally suggesting that you build a Cape Cod Catboat, but I am suggesting that you look at the hullforms, especially the hard chined versions designed by Charlie Wittholz. I would suggest that you consider narrowing the beam slightly, adding a fully ballasted keel (I still suggest a long, moderately deep, fin keel for ease of handling in heavy air purposes.) I would suggest going to a fractional sloop rig with a large-ish mainsail. Lastly, for the purpose of keeping the hull weight low, (in order to improve motion comfort, carrying capacity, and seaworthiness) that you plank the topsides in rigid foam, and then cover that with a full depth epoxy/fiberglass laminate on the exterior (with a minimum of non-directional material to improve puncture resistance). If you used a deep section foam (perhaps 1 1/2" you would go a very long way towards achieving full floation. Coupling that with a series of watertight compartments you should be able to achieve full floatation.
I still think that wide beam-heavy boats tend to require more of a "highly energentic, consumate sailor", and in other words, tend to be pretty UN-forgiving as compared to more moderate designs which tend to be able to take care of themselves.
I need to finish lunch and get back to work, I hope that this is helpful.
Best Hull type?
That''s why its good that I have a number of months to consider the problem.
I want something I can sail without being a "highly energentic, consumate sailor", in other words, something pretty forgiving.
I would love for there to be a little room to move around above deck and for basic amenities below deck.
and, while I could easily do steel construction, I want to go with dynel/resin over wood as I much prefer wood''s heat transfer characteristic over metal''s
I''ll spend some time designing this one... I''m sure it''ll be a) weird, and b) fun!
Best Hull type?
Maybe this is just me, but I see a major contradiction between saying that you want a boat that is:
"A) stable and forgiving
B) easy to sail single-handed
C) and has a comfy ride."
with saying that you want a boat that is
double hulled,
somewhat heavy hulled"
These are two boats at the opposite end of the spectrum. Forget about sailing performance, my point is that beamy, heavy boats with much of their weight in their hulls do not have a comfortable motion, nor are they easy to handle, nor do they offer a lot of ultimate stability.
Best Hull type?
Well, my uninformed (but gradually improving) ideas on this have me using dynel and resin over wood.
The interior space between the inner and outer hulls is to be filled with foam of some sort. I''m painfully aware of the potential problems with sealed space and moisture retention. I intend to take some time considering this problem. Perhaps removable access panels? I dunno...
As to lack of concern for the boats sailing characteristics... it isn''t so much a lack of concern as:
a) don''t care a whole lot how fast it goes
b) want it to be stable and forgiving
c) want it to be easy to sail single-handed
d) want it to be a comfy ride.
I want to sight see... not race. For me, I see it as more of a water-born RV.
Best Hull type?
Just out of curiosity, what material are you considering for your double hulls? As I began to think about how a double hulled boat of that size might be constructed I realized that with most materials you are describing a next to impossible task to actually produce an water tight inner liner that would not result in all kinds of long term maintenance problems or which would not be too heavy for a boat of this size.
As I began to think about how I would go about designing a boat of this size and type, my first thought was that the cheapest, quickest, easiest way to produce the strongest hull for its weight for a one off boat would be a glass over wood boat. But as I began to think about how to create a watertight inner skin, I could not figure out how you would reliably create individual watertight compartments between the skins. I also became concerned about the affects of tarpping the inevitable moisture between two hulls and became concerned about the durability of this.
Steel would be way too heavy for a boat of this size and adding a second skin would only make the problem worse. Of course you also need to be able to get to the interior surfaces of a steel boat for maintenance reasons and sealed interior skin would prevent that.
Fiberglass might work but there are issues there as well. Obviously it would be a little more labor intensive than building a wooden or steel hulled boat from scratch. I suppose that you could build a glass boat with a very thick core (perhaps 1 1/2" or 2") and a full thickness exterior skin. The core would help absorb any shocks and prevent the inner skin from being breeched. If properly bonded the core would limit the flooded are to the damaged area of the core only.
If I had the goal of creating an "unsinkable boat" of that size I think that I would stick with a single hull but try to construct a series of water tight compartments within the layout of the boat.
Given your lack of concern for the sailing ability of the vessel you are contemplating, it probably does make sense that your primary focus is on what happens when you run aground or hit something ;^).
Anyway, good luck,
Best Hull type?
No Worries... I appreciate the advice.
I have the better part of a year (or as long as I feel like taking) to consider the problem. But, I have no intention of beginning the project prior to next spring.
Yes, by double-hulled, I mean a single hull with inner and outer layers, with the space between the 2 hulls divided up into water-tight compartments. The inner hull would not be as heavy as the outer... more of an "emergency back-up"
I know that the fins are the current norm... but, for some reason, I see myself sailing in too shallow and breaking the damn fin. I guess that might be one of the main appeals to me for the full-keel. Also, the full-keel seems to present a tougher, more damage-resistant lower surface.
I can understand the physics which make a fin with ballast/bulb attached better in many ways... perhaps, given time, I''ll get over my irrational notions about sailboat design. ;-)

Is it worth it to go through the trouble of materials and labor? or am I better off just sucking it up and spending the money for a decoy rig? how would i even go about making my own? ID have 3 differnt rigs, all with about a dozen or so decoys on them, give or take a few here and there.
Materials list? How lond does each one need to be from keel to weight? how do i attach the weight to look natural? i hope this is in the the correct forum

So I bought this beautiful flightsuit and jetpack harness from Man Of War. 100% cotton. When I got it, it was snow white.
From research here on the board, it seemed RIT Pearl Gray dye was the way to go. Unfortunately, Pearl gray is much darker than needed, so I did some testing on scrap swatches of white cotton and came up with a recipe.
In 2 cups of very hot water, I dissolved 1 tablespoon of dye powder per gallon of water that I intended to use. I was dying this in a big plastic tub, so I used 4 gallons of water. (4 tbs of dye is less than one package of the dye powder.)
Then I added 1 teaspoon of Speedball Super Black India ink per gallon of water.
I filled the tub with gallons of very cold water. (I DID NOT use hot water. This is cotton. It would shrink.) I tossed in the dye liquid, and added about a cup of salt. Mixed well.
I threw in the flightsuit and stirred constantly for about 10 minutes. Then I hung everything to dry overnight.
When it dried, I ended up with this:
Next, I had to weather it. This was by far the scariest part of this entire process because throughout the weathering, I couldn't tell what the final flightsuit would look like when it was dry. Just had to have faith and use my imagination.
I filled an empty spray bottle with water and about 2 teaspoons of RIT Dark Brown dye powder, and just a pinch of RIT Golden yellow dye powder. Mixed well.
I discovered that the trick to this whole thing was that the flightsuit had to be DAMP so the brown dye would spread out through the fibers and didn't just sit there like paint. The result was supposed to look like old stains that have been washed over and over, but never came out.
I hung the pieces from the ceiling in my garage, and started spraying on the dark brown dye using movie photos as reference. I alternated between the spray bottle and dabbing with a sponge dipped in the dye solution.
I knew that the flightsuit looks much darker when it was wet from the original dye process, so I had to estimate how much weathering to put down. I figured I'd go just a little bit overboard because it would get lighter.
I let everything dry, and it turned out I was right. It got a lot lighter. I went back and added two more layers -- adding additional pinches of dark brown RIT powder to my spray bottle each time to get a darker and darker solution. I repeated the process until I had multiple tones of grime. Some a little more yellow. Some a little more brown.
The final result is this:
And here it is with the white jetpack harness. You can see the contrast.
Here are some close-ups:
Over all, I'm pretty happy with it!

Well, here is my obligatory first post and my story of how I ended up here.
I'm a (mostly former) Star Wars collector who is just now starting to sell off a considerable amount of my collection. Last night I started with my first batch of items, one of them being an unmodified Don Post 1995 Boba Fett helmet (vinyl, white interior). Looking at my helmet brought back many memories, and in doing so I remembed stumbling across this forum (as a lurker) some time ago. A little Googling and here I am now.
I think it is great there is still a vibrant community of prop/costume makers out there striving to make awesome replicas. Back when I was in my collecting heyday, the only outlet I had to talk with others was on BBS message boards...but even that was pretty limited.
So, if any of you are in search for a DP 95, mine is available.
- Kevin
ps: The only time I wore this was back in 1995 for my school's Halloween contest. At that time, I stood out with my homemade Boba Fett costume amongst the guys dressed up as sports players. And, despite the ridicule I endured that day, I still think I was the coolest kid in school that day.

The President charged his bipartisan fiscal commission with making recommendations late this year to put the federal budget on a more sustainable path, including what is known as "primary budget balance" by 2015. This means the budget would be balanced except for interest payments on the federal debt. At that point, the nation's economic growth would only need to keep up with interest rates in order to stabilize the debt. Most economists consider total deficits of around 3 percent of the Gross Domestic Product to be economically sustainable. The administration last week estimated the primary deficit for the current fiscal year at nearly $1.29 trillion, compared to a $1.47 trillion deficit figure when interest payments are included.
Not all deficits are created equal. They can be grouped into two major categories: cyclical and structural. A recession drives down government revenue because many workers and businesses are no longer earning income that the government can tax, or at least their income has dropped. At the same time, government spending rises because more people need assistance through programs such as Medicaid, unemployment benefits and health insurance subsidies. The result is a temporary, or cyclical, deficit. Once the economy recovers, tax revenue and government spending on assistance programs return to normal levels.In contrast, a structural deficit reflects a chronic problem. If government spending exceeds tax revenue even when the economy is strong, then the deficit is structural. Structural deficits must be addressed through major changes in tax and spending policies, notably for entitlement programs that claim a large percentage of the federal budget. With structural deficits, one-time spending cuts or temporary tax increases will not solve the problem.The United States currently faces both a cyclical and a structural deficit. The cyclical deficit is caused by the financial crisis and severe recession from which the country is still recovering. The structural deficit reflects the chronic mismatch between government revenue and spending that under current policies will dramatically worsen as health care costs rise and the population ages.

Good evening/morning all,
Just wanted to let everyone know that I will be the new mod, along with Ross, for our little NH forum. I hope we can still have a good time even with Ray leaving as moderator.
I'd like to thank him for making my experience here that much nicer, it has been very much appreciated.
I am going into my 5th year of waterfowling, so I will fully admit I am far from an expert... but this site has helped me grow as a waterfowler each and every year and I hope it continues that way.
I'll try to be on here atleast once a day. If there are any issues that come up, just let me know.
Have a good and safe off season everyone,

The Pong iPad case claims to boost your iPad's Wi-Fi and 3G signal while reducing the risk of exposure to the radiation that comes with wireless signals. Clever stuff no doubt but it has almost nothing to do with why we think it's one of the best, if rather expensive, New iPad 3 cases available.
Pong iPad case design
Technical wizardry aside, what makes the Pong iPad case so good is actually just good practical design coupled with good build quality.
Its a fully protective case so as well as having a flap that covers the screen it also protects the back, like the new Apple Smart Cover rather than the old one. Like most such cases the back is made from plastic and it clips on at the corners but unlike many we've seen it does so very securely and it looks good too. It's not brittle plastic either so can stand up to the stress of being removed and replaced multiple times, and it has a nice soft touch finish as well, which thus far (after several weeks use) hasn't rubbed off.
Crucially though, inset into the back is a faux leather panel that then wraps round to become the screen cover too. It's crucial because this finish is both soft to the touch and non-slip (making it good for lap-typing), it gives the case a quality cohesive look and it ensure the cover doesn't become detached. It's worth noting that the case does mean the iPad won't dock in many devices, which is why it's so important that it can stand up to being repeatedly removed and replaced.
Pong iPad case features
The screen cover incorporates similar folds in it as the Apple Smart Cover, allowing you to roll it up to form a stand for the tablet. Moreover it has an even more useful trick up its sleeve.
Diagonal folds also allow you to pinch the two corners of the cover together to form another stand, but this time one that holds the tablet at a much more useful selection of angles: about 60 degrees in landscape and 45 degrees in portrait.
In landscape this provides the perfect angle for watching video, and what's more it's very secure when in this position thanks to the stand's big surface area, making it practical for resting on your legs when sat or lying down.
The portrait orientation isn't quite so secure as it rests on an edge of the case but the option is still there and it's great for when typing a document with a wireless keyboard.
Like with Apple's Smart Cover the underside of the cover has a microfibre finish though like apple's effort it does little to actually keep the screen clean but rather does a good job of keeping it protected from knocks. One downside of this case is that the magnets which hold the cover on the screen are a little weak so it can hang loose if only held it the hinge end - a minor annoyance.
Pong radiation redistribution technology
All the above adds up to this being a very good iPad case already but what really tips the scales is the signature Pong Radiation Redistribution technology here in. This works by deflecting the iPad's (Pong makes an iPhone version too) 3G/4G signal away from the user. It was originally developed to reduce radiation exposure in phones but has now found its way into tablet cases too.
In all honesty Pong does a pretty poor job of explaining the true science behind its patented redistribution antennae with lots of independently verified white papers confirming the effectiveness of the case but few actual explanations as to how it works. But what those papers do explain is that the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR - the rate at which the body absorbs potentially dangerous radiation) of the iPhone 4S, when held in a standard phone call position, is reduced by 95% when used with the Pong iPhone case. Meanwhile the Total Radiated Power (TRP - the total signal strength) is hardly effected, unlike with some cases which reduce signal strength.
Obviously we're looking at the iPad version here which is much less likely to be held up against your head so the radiation concerns are fewer. But, the technology is still there on the 3G version just in case, plus Pong also claims Wi-Fi strength and reliability is improved.
In our tests we didn't notice much benefit, with a number of other cases round the office proving just as capable when it came to picking up a signal. Indeed Pong's comparisons on its website are against two pretty substantial rival cases, rather than the more common slimline variety.
But, you're still getting the radiation reduction and, even if results are rather variable, it doesn't change the fact that this is otherwise a really nicely designed case that should be right at the top of people's shortlist, if you can afford it.
The Pong iPad case for the New iPad 3 (Wi-Fi 3G) is stylish and very nicely made, plus it protects your iPad completely unlike some covers. Add in a clever multi-position folding stand/cover and Pong's radiation reducing, signal boosting technology and you have a winning formula. Unfortunately it's horrendously overpriced so despite being one of the best iPad cases we've used, we can't recommend it.

Old school tattoos usually feature big and bold designs with heavy black outlines that are filled with solid and vivid colors. Common old school tattoos include such images as mermaids, anchors, eagles, snakes, sparrows and daggers. Back in the old days, tattoo machines were rather primitive and the ink that was used didn't include many of the colors that are available today and the skill of the artist was minimal.

One of the major concerns many people have when they first think about having a tattoo done is, are tattoos safe? Yes, tattoos are generally safe.

Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Voters
posted at 6:29 pm on January 14, 2010 by Dafydd ab Hugh
Late last year, Big Lizards ran a post, Will B.O. Run for Reelection? – Obamic Options 006, that even we labeled "strange." In response to the title question, we wrote:
I predict that, if the Obamacle ponders the race of 2012 and sees a strong Republican contender and only luckwarm support for himself, he will try to cut a deal with the U.N.; current Secretary General Nanki-Poo would retire with all honors… then the General Assembly offers Obama the job.
(A commenter pointed out that the Secretary General cannot be from one of the five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council, the countries that have veto authority; but that only means Barack H. Obama would either have to get the General Assembly to vote an exception to that rule — easily done, if they want him anyway — or else he would have to give up the United States' veto in the U.N. I have the terrible feeling he may seek the latter as being more desirable in any event…)
Well, today one of those two criteria eventuated; according to the Allstate/National Journal Heartland Monitor poll, were the election held today, half (50%) of all voters would vote for Obama's opponent. Only 39% say they would vote to reelect the president. On the all-important enthusiasm question, 23% say they would "definitely vote to re-elect Obama," while 37% say they would "definitely vote for someone else."
That is only half the equation, however; even the Obamacle — who isn't half as smart as half the people sort of half-think he is — is twice as smart as necessary to know that even a less than popular president can be reelected if he's up against a scary ideologue or a clodhopper. As yet, there is no real front-runner for the Republican nomination for 2012; so we have no clue whether Obama will face a powerful opponent or luck out with an easily dismissed Barry Goldwater or Blob Dole.
(The other extreme, Obama being crushed by a Ronald Reagan, is virtually impossible; if such a potential candidate existed, we would already know about him or her. Reagan himself didn't spring like Athena out of Zeus's brow; he was one of America's best-known political figures on "la rive droite" ever since 1964.)
The poll seems fairly mainstream on other questions, so I take it seriously. For example, among respondents, 38% voted for Barack Obama in 2008, while 33% voted for John McCain. Dropping all other options, this works out to 53.5% for B.O. and 46.5% for J.M. — virtually identical to the actual vote of 52.9% to 45.7%. Similarly, the self-reported political breakdown among respondents ("generally speaking, do you think of yourself as a Republican, a Democrat, an Independent, or something else?") is 25%, 30%, 30%, which is probably right in line with the country. Other answers show a significant drop in support for Obama and his policies over the past year, mirroring other national polls.
The poll is not some weird outlier.
If the One We Have Been Itching to Rethink isn't looking over his shoulder and starting to sweat, then he's even more of a monster of vanity, ego, and narcissism than I thought — which would be saying quite a mouthful.

I'm suggesting
to have section for discussion of Vinaya-Pitaka
we can discuss
why The Buddha set the Rules
if we are educated about the reason why rules were set, we will keep them better
our faith will be stronger.
I'm reading SuttaVibhanga
and i just learned the reason why the Theravada is called the teaching of the Elders
The reason is the Buddha was the first one to break from taints
since he is the first,he is regarded as the elder
like a first son is born,he is regarded as the elder
so from this we can know the elders line goes by attainments
thus Theravada the teaching of the elders.

Hi Gang , Iv'e been listening and talking to several people recently on the subject of making Modifiacations or Improving Armor and Helmets and there has been a question raised as to how much or what percentage of modifacation has to be done to a poorly cast or damaged piece before any Item can be concidered something new or different?
I read through as many threads here as I could ( one stood out dealing with Recasting and arguing the burden of proof. ) but I would like to be a little more clear on how the members of the TDH or RPF stand on the issue.
The Helmet that was the topic of discussion was Sgt. Fangs Boba Fett Helmet in that it's been recast so much and the castings usually have to be completely reworked , reshaped and filled .
I bought a set of two on late night Ebay for cheap and cheap is what I got, (These two Helmets inspired the conversation). My wife said the top looked like a golf ball , the cheeks and back are warped and it had to be heated and streched just to fit on my head, the ears needed work as well.
Iv'e done alot of work to one of them and it'll do fine for Trooping but not much more.
I understand that Fangs Helmet ( The Lava Helmet ) came to him in pretty bad shape off of Ebay? and he did a Great job putting it back into shape.
So using a poor Recast of Sgt Fangs Boba Helmet as the model for discussion what percentage of work beyond just a restoration do you think would have to be done before you call it by a different name? or reconize it as a new Helmet?
