Easy DIY LED Upgrades from AHS
Hi All,
Last month at the AGA Convention some very lucky people got to see the newest offerings from AH Supply; their LED lamp arrays! Thats right, AH Supply - the company that brought us the Power Compact kits with the MIRO 4 reflectors, is now offering LEDs lamp arrays for the DIY hobbyist.
Many of us that have been in the planted aquarium hobby for a while are familiar with Aquarium Hobbyist Supply (AH Supply / AHS). They developed the Power Compact kits with the MIRO 4 reflectors that set the standard for Power Compact (PC) performance both for planted aquariums and saltwater. Even today a quality AHS Power Compact kit outperforms most of the 2 bulb T5HO fixtures that are on the market. In addition AH Supply has a reputation for using quality components and providing excellent support. Its no secret that I like AH Supply kits; I have used them since I re-entered the hobby almost 5 years ago and have been very pleased with the equipment. What I especially like about their kits is if a component goes bad and needs to be replaced in one of my lights it is as simple and as ordering it and having it shipped. Since I put the fixture together in the first place, repairs are a snap.
I have had the opportunity to see and test the original prototypes of these LED lamp arrays as early as last spring. Then this fall I received an unexpected package from AH Supply, it was their 20 watt LED lamp array mounted in a vintage Aqueon/All Glass strip light housing. I was amazed; it was so simple in design! It consisted of the housing, power cord, and switch which were all part of the original Aqueon/ All-Glass strip light. What was new was a 2G11 (4 pin straight) socket/base, two stand-offs for holding the LED lamp array, and a box with the new design 20 watt LED lamp array .that was it!
For those of us that have wanted LEDs for our lighting but were intimidated by the sizes, spectrums, lenses, heat sinks, drivers, series wiring, parallel wiring, connectors, etc. these LED lamp arrays give us an alternative for easy DIY upgrades for our fixtures and canopies.
The L.E.D. lamp arrays run on standard 110/120 VAC and do not require a driver/ballast. After I plugged the L.E.D. array into the 2G11 socket and inserted the LED lamp array into the holders/stand-offs it was ready to go!
I decided to run it through its paces and it performed excellently. The L.E.D.s all lit simultaneously and with equal brightness. I put it on my 20 gallon tank and it looked identical in spectrum to the 6700K PC bulb I was using which would make sense since the LED lamp is rated 6400K. GSAS has a PAR meter for our members so I immediately called and reserved the next open slot so I could run some PAR tests; here are the results:
Please note that the PAR readings shown were taken in open air and would likely be higher due to internal reflection if I had taken them in an aquarium filled with water. I will try to take readings in one of my aquariums in the future. How do these PAR readings compare to a AH Supply Power Compact kit for example? I have a 2X36 watt AH Supply PC kit (72 watts total) on my 30 gallon. At the substrate level (13) the PAR for that fixture is about 95 so these 20 watt LED lamp arrays put out about 80% of the light intensity of my PC's while only consuming about 28% of the wattage.
Saving money on electricity consumption is good, however the real savings for replacing power compact or T5HO lamps with L.E.D. lamp arrays in not the electricity cost. For example on that 30 gallon if I replaced the two 36 watt power compact lamps with a 20 watt array I would save approximately 52 watts per hour. I run my light 6 hours a day so I would save 312 watt/hours per day or 0.3 KWH per day. Over the course of a 30 day month that would save 30 x 0.3 = 9.0 KWH. I pay about $0.10 per KHW so I would save $0.90 per month or $10.80 per year.
The real savings however are the cost of replacing the power compact lamps. Typically I pay about $15 per lamp and I replace them every 12 months because I have noted a 20% drop in the PAR values over that period. L.E.D. arrays have an estimated life expectancy of 30,000 hours (13.7 years at 6 hours per day). Therefore my annual savings per year is the $30 (2 bulbs) and $10.80 (electricity) for a total annual savings of $40.80. The cost of the 20 watt array is less than $85 so my payback period is little over 2 years assuming electricity and bulbs do no go up in price..
AH Supply offers the LED lamp arrays in three sizes. There is a 15 watt that is 17 long which would be great for a 10 gallon or two end to end they cover the length of a 36 long tank. There are two LED lamp offerings that are 22 long; the 20 watt which I have just tested and a more powerful 26 watt unit.
The AH Supply also offers the LED lamp clips (stand-offs) that hold the lamp along with an assortment of LED 2G11 sockets; both moisture resistant and standard. Since some 2G11 sockets come with internal jumpers and some don't it would be wise to use the ones AHS recommends. There is also a variety of power cords, power switches, and hardware available on their website.
The AHS website has not been updated with pictures or details of the LED lamps but the pricing and ordering information is located at AH Supply LEDs. Now I know what to ask Santa for this Christmas!
This is a very good LED light option, at a reasonable price too. Thank you for posting the data, which I incorporated in my lighting forum thread, http://www.plantedtank.net/forums/sh...d.php?t=184368 This can be used for low light tanks up to about 28 inches tall, or medium light tanks up to about 20 inches tall. The 26 watt light should be significantly brighter.
This is the future of cheap DIY LED! Can't find any pictures of these lit up.
I agree; two thing impressed me most about these LED lamp arrays. The first was the PAR values and the uniformity of the output. The second was the simplicity of the design for installations and retrofits. I agree, it is a quality LED retrofit kit for a very reasonable price....I was amazed when I saw the final production models.
If I have an opportunity I will get you some readings on the 15 watt and 26 watt units as well.
The cost of the units was not what impressed me the most, it was the simplicity of the design and quality of the output. Here is a picture of the 20 watt lit up.
Where can i get one? i couldn't find it on their website.
Hi TaDoey,
Man, and I just ordered replacement PC bulbs for my 2x96 a few weeks ago....
What can you tell me about the heat output of these? I don't see much in the way of heatsinks or ventilation there. My current AHSupply setup blackens the plastic rear parts of my glass canopy every few months, and melted two different center braces on my 72g, the second even after raising it up two inches. I'd love to be able to retrofit two of these into a 48 inch striplight housing as shown, but there's far less venting on those than what I have.
How does the heat output compare to your 2x36, both above and below the light?
I didn't compare the temperature of the 24" LED lamp array fixture to the 2X36 watt PC but I did compare it to an AHS 1X55 watt (24") fixture.
AHS 1X55 watt PC = 92 degrees F.
AHS 1X20 LED lamp = 84 degrees F.
Ambient temp was 76 degrees F.
(Measured by putting temp. probe between fixture and glass Versa-top.
Hope this helps!
i recently threw away 6 of these fixtures!!! :(
Hi All,
I just realized it has been a while since I updated this thread and I had not included the trial I did with the light in March.
Here is a 20 gallon high, no CO2, STS #7941 inert substrate, dosing modified EI ferts with glutaraldehyde. The light is a 20 watt AH Supply LED retrofit kit/lamp in a 24" Aqueon housing.

The Patterson Mansion, designed by famed architect Stanford White of McKim, Mead & White, sits right on Dupont Circle in Northwest D.C., abutting Books-A-Million bookstore and the Iraq embassy. Since the structure was built in 1903, The Chicago Tribune editor Robert Patterson, President Calvin Coolidge, and the Washington Club have all called the brick and marble building home.
When Residential Architect last checked in on the historic mansion (also called Patterson House), French Quarter Hospitality had wanted to turn it into a hotel, and enlisted Studio3877 to design it. At an Oct. 24 meeting, the city's Historic Preservation Review Board (HPRB) agreed with a staff report that the project's proposed addition was "incompatibly tall and too close to the mansion." (The mansion is a D.C. Historic Site and on the National Register of Historic Places.) The board voted at that same meeting that the "period of significance" for the property is 1902 to 1948—so an existing addition along P Street, added in the 1950s, is not protected.
Now, a new project with a new buyer is in the works. The HPRB recently approved a proposal by SB-Urban and D.C.-based firm Hartman-Cox Architects. Steve Callcott, deputy preservation officer at the city's planning department (and the staff reviewer on the HPRB staff report), said in an email that the project will go next to the city's Board of Zoning Adjustment, which according to their website has scheduled a hearing on May 6. The Advisory Neighborhood Commission 2B (the one that oversees the neighborhood) is slated to review the zoning application Wednesday.
The developer, SB-Urban, doesn't appear to have a website. Washington Business Journal reported in October that SB-Urban's Mike Balaban and Frank Saul also wanted to convert a Georgetown hotel into micro-apartments, and what looks like a LinkedIn profile for Balaban confirms this project as well as at least one other in Mt. Vernon Square. According to the page: "Frank Saul III and I formed SB-Urban to develop, own, and and operate small-unit, small-household apartment communities in prime infill locations in metro DC and other gateway cities."
Hartman-Cox declined to provide information on the Patterson Mansion project. The Office of Planning, however, provided access to a hard copy of a proposal dated Jan. 24, 2014, and the Board of Zoning Adjustment's website also has a proposal dated Feb. 19. The two proposals give a pretty good sense of what's being discussed. Please forgive the image quality of the former—we shot the paper document as best we could.
Here's what the building looks like now, courtesy of Google Street View.
The proposal for the Patterson Mansion will demolish the newer addition and build another in its place, spanning seven stories. The new building, intended for micro-apartments, would contain a glass façade, and be linked to the historic structure by a two-story "glass connection." The proposed addition is thinner and further away from the original structure than the addition floated in the prior proposal.
According to the Feb. 19 proposal, the renovation and expansion will include 92 units across the main structure and addition. The entire second above-ground level (called the first floor) on the mansion side is dedicated to shared living space. The proposal also includes a bicycle room and green roofs.
Here's the same comparison from the P Street angle.
And from 18th Street.
The addition materials are markedly different from those on the Patterson Mansion. "The cladding of white spandrel glass is intended to provide a similar polish and crispness to the addition as is provided by the white marble on [the] landmark while clearly reading as a contemporary building," according to HPRB's staff report. The older proposal included a mood board of sorts.
Here's the complete Feb. 19 proposal (filed under case number 18744 on the zoning board's website).

On schedule
North Country ATV trail opening on schedule
Special To The Union Leader | May 19. 2013 7:38PM
Everything from hand tools to this excavator have been used to build, clear and improve a network of ATV trails through the North Country. (COURTESY)
"I understand not everyone supports it," he said.
"The more we can do for this North Country, we should do it," said Burnham "Bing" Judd, chairman of the Connecticut Lake Headwaters Citizens Committee. His committee has actively supported the Ride the Wilds project.
Asked Friday about the total cost of the project, Gamache said that would be hard to calculate because the funding came from so many sources and at different times, and was targeted to develop particular sections of the trail.
For example, a Trails Bureau grant of more than $60,000 went last year to the Metallak All-Terrain Vehicle Club in Colebrook to build trails in the Great North Woods that connected Gorham, Pittsburg and Colebrook.
"A lot of the trail goes through existing logging roads," he said, which reduced the need of the labor that's required for cutting new trails.

text: MTA members lobby for fairness on municipal health care "We are not the bad guys," said Jane Leo, an elementary teacher in Brookline. "Teachers are not the bad guys." Leo, like hundreds of her fellow educators, wanted to remind legislators of that fundamental truth on April 28 as part of the MTA's multi-pronged lobbying effort to protect municipal employees' collective bargaining rights over health insurance. The lobbying effort started as a trickle in the middle of the day as retirees arrived in Boston. The numbers picked up as school let out and buses pulled up next to the State House, disgorging members who first stopped at MTA headquarters to pick up their bright yellow T-shirts and instructions. By early evening, more than 700 MTA members were roaming the halls of the State House asking their senators not to follow the lead of the House in gutting their bargaining rights. They also stopped by the House to thank representatives who voted with the MTA and others in the public employee coalition on the issue – and to express their disappointment in those who didn't. Is your state rep among the 42 who stood up for collective bargaining? MTA members: Please thank legislators who supported collective bargaining, express your disappointment to those who didn't, and bring the MTA message to your senators! Legislative Contact Information "I'm here to protect our rights," said Canton teacher Nancy Flood. "People have worked hard for years to gain – and maintain – these rights, and we are going in the wrong direction." MTA President Paul Toner, MTA Vice President Tim Sullivan and MTA Executive Director-Treasurer Ann Clarke were on hand to rally the members, as were a number of members of the association's staff. Toner praised the turnout and called the event "a prime example of grassroots activism, as envisioned in the MTA Strategic Action Plan." "This really shows what our members will do when their values, their principles and their profession are under attack," Toner said. "Collective bargaining is at the heart of workers' rights in our democracy, and it also plays a big role in the success of our public education system. "Massachusetts students are number one for a reason," he continued. "We need to attract high-quality educators to our public education system and keep them in the profession. The working and learning conditions produced by collective bargaining play a key role in that effort." Toner noted that the unions' efforts on municipal health insurance are centered on protecting retirees and the very sick, which can best be accomplished by ensuring that current employees and retirees have a voice in the process of determining their medical plans. He also pointed out that the unions have offered a proposal that would save towns and cities $100 million in health care costs, the same amount as the House plan, while preserving collective bargaining. MTA members came to Boston to lobby from all across the state, and they were joined by colleagues from AFT Massachusetts for the "Education Day" event. Those who went to the State House were positive about the experience. "It felt very productive," MTA Retired member Claire Naughton said after she returned to MTA headquarters to report back on her lobbying efforts. "I have never seen so many people I knew at the State House in my life." The Senate has generally taken a more positive view toward the unions' position that cost-shifting can take place, but that employees should have a chance to negotiate over how changes unfold. The unions have two other major "asks" – that some of the savings be dedicated to reducing costs for very sick employees who have high out-of-pocket expenses and that retirees have a seat at the table through Section 19 coalition bargaining. A key goal is to protect the vulnerable from having to choose between medical care and food or housing. The Senate is expected to take up its budget, including the health care measure, in mid-May. After the Senate acts, the budget will go to a conference committee and then to Governor Deval Patrick, who has stated that public employees need a meaningful voice in health care decisions and that he will not sign a "Wisconsin-type" bill. There were bound to be more difficult conversations than "thanks yous" on the House side of the building during the lobby day, since state representatives voted 113-42 on April 26 for a plan that gives municipalities the unfettered right to increase copayments and deductibles to the GIC benefit level or require municipal employees to join the GIC. "I never thought a Democratic House would pass anti-collective-bargaining legislation in this state," said retired Everett educator Richard Liston. "It's one thing when you hear about it in Alabama or Mississippi but it's another thing here in Massachusetts. It's just going to spread like wildfire across the country. If this is what the Democrats did to the union, it just gives carte blanche to Republicans to carry the ball even further." Members who spoke with their representatives or their aides reported back that Speaker of the House Robert DeLeo had put a lot of pressure on them to vote against the union-backed amendment sponsored by state Representatives Marty Walsh and Jim O'Day. They also took a lot of heat from municipal leaders, who have been lobbying for control over health care plan design for several years. But there were good news stories, as well. Retiree Jackie Coogan reported that Rep. Paul Brodeur had not initially supported the Walsh-O'Day amendment, but in the end voted with the unions after hearing from many active and retired teachers. "He did the right thing," she said. "He really came through for us. We were really pleased." Lobby Day Photos Subscribe to MTA News Headlines by Email

- What is synchronized?
Also see:
Getting Started
- Download and install the addon.
- Check your Thunderbird proxy settings.
If your browser uses a proxy server to connect to the internet, use the same settings in Thunderbird. See Thunderbird/Tools/Options/Network/Connection.
- Visit Thunderbird/Tools/Zindus, then click "Add" and enter your login details.
- Click "Test Connection", then OK.
- Click 'Sync Now'
Before getting started, backup your contacts. The addon's record of stability speaks for itself. But it has happened more than once that someone is in sync, deletes all their contacts, and then syncs again, causing the contacts on the other side to be deleted too. So backup - its better to be safe than sorry.
What is slow sync?
When your contacts aren't in sync (eg. after installation or the 'Reset' button), the addon uses a 'slow sync' to get the local and remote sides in sync.
In a 'slow sync', all contacts are retrieved and merged with those in Thunderbird. Here is an example:
|Before slow sync
|After slow sync
Contacts match if they are identical in every field that's synced between Thunderbird and the remote server(s).
Slow sync doesn't generate duplicates, but it doesn't "intelligently merge" contacts either. If two contacts are even a little bit different then the result is one of each - as with b and c in the example above.
The purpose of slow sync is to get the two sides into sync. Fast sync keeps the two sides in sync.
What is fast sync?
In a fast sync, changes made to either to one side are propagated to the other side.
When a contact on one side changes, fast sync modifies the contact on the other side by overwriting all the fields that are common to both (and leaving the fields that aren't common untouched).
Usually, the first sync is a slow sync and subsequent sync are "fast" syncs.
Merging contacts
Slow sync doesn't attempt an intelligent merge, so if you start with John Smith on one side having an email address and on the other side a mobile phone number, slow sync leaves you with two John Smiths - one with a phone number and the other with an email address.
To merge contacts (making a single John Smith with an email address and phone number):
- Google has an excellent find and merge contacts feature
- Zimbra has a contact cleaner zimlet
How to propagate contacts
To propagate the contacts from one side to the other:
- backup the contacts on the 'losing' side then delete them
- visit Tools/Zindus then select Reset then Sync Now.
Reset is the key here. It forces a slow sync, which brings the two sides into sync using the contacts on the 'winning' side.
Without Reset, Sync Now might be a fast sync - risking deletion of all your contacts on the other side too!
What are Conflicts?
When a contact is modified in two places, or modified in one place and deleted in another, there's a conflict.
Some conflicts are resolved automatically and other conflicts cause the sync to fail and must be resolved manually before a sync can succeed. Here are some examples:
Example Conflict #1 If a contact changed on both Thunderbird and the remote server, the conflict is resolved in favour of Thunderbird. The remote server is updated with Thunderbird's version.
Example Conflict #2 If you are syncing with Zimbra and Thunderbird has an addressbook named "zindus/Trash", the sync will fail and report:
Sync failed: Addressbook with reserved name: zindus/Trash
This type of conflict can't be resolved automatically. In order to sync, the "zindus/Trash" addressbook must be removed or renamed to a name that is valid within Zimbra.
What is auto-sync?
To keep you in sync, the addon initiates sync on a periodic basis. Two preferences affect the frequency:
- extensions.zindus.system.as_timer_delay_on_start
the number of seconds after startup
- extensions.zindus.system.as_timer_delay_on_repeat
the number of seconds after the first auto-sync
These preferences are only a mean - runtime values are randomized to minimize server congestion. To see or change their values, use the Thunderbird about:config editor.
If you want to know when the next auto-sync is scheduled, one of the last few lines in the logfile should look like this:
info: sync next: Friday, 11 January 2008 5:16:41 PM
Auto sync can be disabled via the Zindus Preferences dialog.
One of my contacts wont sync
If one of your Thunderbird contacts won't sync the most likely reason is that it is in a mailing list. Mailing lists and the contacts in them aren't synced. Instead, the addon syncs google groups.
Contacts in Thunderbird mailing lists are effectively removed from the view of the addon. If you want to experiment with this, move a Thunderbird contact into a mailing list. The next sync will delete the corresponding contact on the server. To get the contact back, move the Thunderbird contact out of the mailing list and the next sync adds it back to the server.
If you aren't sure whether the addon is working correctly, try this:
- from Thunderbird: add, modify or delete a contact, then visit Tools/Zindus then click 'Sync Now'.
- from the browser: click 'reload' to force the browser refresh it's cache from the server.
- Hey presto, the browser shows the change that you made in Thunderbird.
If you add, modify or delete a contact in Gmail, the change will eventually appear in Thunderbird, but it's not immediate. The delay can be minutes or hours before the change you made in Gmail is available via Google's Contacts API.
The statusbar
The indicators in the statusbar are:
Y ==> in sync, next sync will be a fast sync
X ==> sync failed
! ==> not synced (ie after installation or Reset), next sync will be a slow sync
Release streams
The addon has three release streams:
- addons.mozilla.org
The most stable and least frequently updated.
- zindus.com production release
Balances stablity and new features.
- zindus.com testing release
The leading (but not bleeding) edge.
If you want a feature that is not yet available in your release stream, your options are:
- be patient - the feature will eventually become available in your release stream, or
- install the addon from a release stream that is updated more frequently
The addon stores passwords using the same mechanism that Thunderbird uses to store your IMAP/POP passwords. The mechanism allows you to use a master password to encrypt stored passwords. For technical details, do a web search for "nsIPasswordManager".
Network traffic
The sync network traffic (usernames/passwords/contacts) goes between Thunderbird and your server (Google or Zimbra). No third party web sites are involved.
For Google, the addon defaults to using https.
For Zimbra, the addon uses the url supplied by the user. When a Zimbra server gives the addon a choice of soapURLs, the addon defaults to selecting https.
Like most other addons, this addon checks the server that you downloaded it from for version updates.
Open-source software
The Zindus addon is open-source software. The source code is written in Javascript and licensed under the Mozilla Public License.
To see the source code, download the addon, unzip the .xpi then unzip the .jar.
Q1 2012: sync photos
Q2 2012: first + last name sync
Parsing and sync of postal addresses (into street/city/state etc) is blocked pending a Google Contacts API v3 feature that Google has announced but not yet implemented.
Mailing lists
The Zindus addon doesn't currently sync Thunderbird mailing lists or Zimbra Distribution Lists, but it does sync google groups.
We chose to sync Google Groups with addressbooks in preference to mailing lists because:
- Thunderbird UI has better support for addressbooks than it does mailing lists, eg import/export
- Thunderbird mailing list bugs
Direct support for mailing lists isn't ruled out, but it is unlikely to take shape until Thunderbird evolves it's plans for contacts and mailing list sanity.
Meantime, Google groups offer similar functionality to Thunderbird mailing lists - simply login to Google, compose an email and address it to the name of a group.
Thunderbird Versions
The addon generally supports the latest official release Thunderbird.
The testing release of the addon occasionally supports pre-releases of Thunderbird - check the release notes for details.
If you want to tweak the addon to force it to work on a bleeding-edge version of thunderbird:
- unzip the addon
- edit install.rdf to suit the current pre-release version.
- zip it up again and install it
- set the preference extensions.zindus.system.as_allow_pre_release to true.
If the addon doesn't work in a pre-release build, it's almost certainly because of a change to the Thunderbird API. Check the Tools/Error Console.
Feature requests
If you would like the Zindus addon to do something that it doesn't currently do, please let us know. It there is enough interest, it may get on to the roadmap. Here are some candidates:
- Windows Live Contacts (Hotmail), Yahoo Mail, …
Let us know if you would like the Zindus addon to sync with something other than Google or Zimbra. Other services that people have previously asked for: CardDAV, eGroupWare, Funambol (via SyncML) and Kerio Groupware.
- Zarafa
Zarafa is an open-source email and collaboration tool. We've had many requests to extend the addon to sync with Zarafa.
Unfortunately, while we continue to track interest in Zarafa, it's user-base remains small compared to Google/Zimbra/Hotmail/Yahoo/iPhone, so it's not likely to jump to the top of our priority list in the near term.
- iPhone
Let us know if you would like the addon to sync iPhone contacts with Thunderbird.
- One-way sync …
Let us know if you would like the addon to sync one-way only, either server ==> Thunderbird or Thunderbird ==> server or both.
Finally, if you are a developer, remember that the addon is open source, so you are free to study the addon and extend it yourself. Please drop us a line if you want help getting started.
Reporting bugs
To report a bug:
- locate the Zindus logfile (see below)
- zip it up
- email it as an attachment along with a description of the problem to email@example.com
- open Tools/Error Console and copy+paste into your email anything that looks relevant.
The logfile helps us understand what the problem is. Without it we often can't be of much help.
Disclosure: along with debugging information, the logfile may also contain part or all of your addressbook. Of course, we treat your personal information as completely confidential - as per the Privacy Policy.
The logfile is located in the zindus/log/ subdirectory of the Thunderbird profile directory.
Thunderbird profile directory
Example locations of Thunderbird's profile directory:

i really suck at taking progress pictures while i'm working on these now, but if you go and look at my helmet paint-up thread and the thread for the helmet i did for verbal21 you can kind of fill in the gaps of the steps i forgot to document. so let's get on to the pictures that i do have of this helmet.
here it is, fresh out the box. i haven't done anything with it yet except open it up find all the parts and set them on the stairs to take a pretty picture.
this next shot is one i always seem to remember to take, here is the helmet with the flash trimmed off from the opening. i haven't started any sanding yet other than to smooth out the bottom edge of the helmet after cutting off the extra resin.
now from there i went through the process of sanding, sanding, sanding. there were about eight 220 grit pads used up on the mouse sander. a few hours of 400 grit sanding by hand (and a sore arm from that), and then some more sanding with 800 grit. that's where i pause to tape the entire helmet (i've found that taping at 800 grit makes it easier to remove any tape residue when i unmask it after painting than if i sanded to 1000 grit and then taped it off), and get ready to paint.
painting is pretty much a multi-layer process, i liken it to dante's inferno. layer 1 -filler primer, once that's set i look for imperfections and fill them with bondo spot filler. then i spot sand the filler down with 400 grit then go over all the primer with 800 and then move on to... layer 2 - automotive primer, then look for any remaining pin holes and spots that may need a little more filling. again with the 400 to 800 grit sandings. layer 3 - automotive primer again, by this point i should have gotten pretty much all the little bobs and bits taken care of and there's no more spot filling required (if there are any that have escaped my notice at this point, they've earned the right to be there). sand it down with 800 grit so it's smooth at freshly shaved leg. from there i can begin layer 4 - this is two layers in one, more like two coats, i get the little can of krylon ocean blue and get the brow, the mandibles, and the area around the ears (i make it a point not to get too much ocean blue on the cheeks, since it's not necessary because that's going to be painted rustoleum royal blue). set aside and let dry. layer 5 - more tape. i mask off everything that needs to be ocean blue, i.e. the brow, the mandibles, and the area around the ears. layer 6 - rustoleum royal blue, the big can. time to go to town on the upper cheeks, the ears, and the right upper ear mount. layer 7 - this is more of a stage of development instead of layer, but it's the unmasking stage. i let the royal blue set for about 20-30 minutes, and it's still tacky when i start to remove all the tape so i have to be careful where i'm holding and peeling from. i peel it off at this point because if i let the second blue set up all the way it gets too hard and can peel away at the ocean blue when i unmask. so i just tear off all the tape while it's still pretty wet. once i get all the tape off i set the helmet on my handy stand and let it dry while i go to bed.
so that brings us to where i'm at with this helmet so far. i've unmasked it this morning and now it's sitting on the stand drying. but i did manage to get a couple good pics of what it looks like right now.
p.s. i forgot to mention that i've already installed the keyslots (it doesn't affect the painting process, and it makes the next stage of sanding easier since i won't have to worry about accidentally messing up the 1000 grit finish if i mis-glue.), and i've also installed two of the chicago screws and the base of the mandibles. i also fashioned a stay for them out of a piece of aluminum so they can't flex as much as i'm working on it with the visor area cut out. i'm thinking of painting the stay black and leaving it in after i install the visor just to give it all a little more stability than the welding visor can provide.

"Under Microsoft's planned enterprise licensing rules, businesses that buy PCs before April 23, 2010, with Windows 7 preinstalled can downgrade them to Windows XP, then later upgrade them to Windows 7 when they're ready to migrate their users. But PCs bought on or after April 23 can only be downgraded to Vista -- which is of no help for XP-based organizations, Silver notes -- and could cause major headaches and add more costs to the Windows 7 migration effort."
"Both Forrester Research and Gartner advise clients to wait 12 to 18 months after Windows 7 ships before adopting the new OS, so they can test compatibility of their hardware and software, as well as ensure their vendors' Windows 7 support meets their needs. But Microsoft's six-month downgrade restriction for XP means that the businesses that chose not to install Vista have to rush the migration process. Or they can spend extra money and enroll in Microsoft's Software Assurance program, which then lets them install any OS version at the price of the extra yearly fee (about $90) per PC."
IT needs to work through several other issues when figuring out its Windows 7 migration strategy, Silver points out.
- Microsoft has yet to make public the details of its
Technology Guarantee program or even say if there will be one that
covers business purchases. The Technology Guarantee program gives free
upgrades to Windows 7 on PCs purchased after a certain date. That's
crucial for businesses that plan to adopt Windows 7 soon, so they can
time their hardware purchases to avoid paying for a Windows 7 upgrade
shortly after buying a PC shipping with Vista.
- Even if applications designed for XP or Vista run on Windows 7, that's no guarantee that the software vendor will support them on Windows 7.
Go liberate (http://www.ibm.com/software/info/liberate), and then figure out alternative migration and virtualization strategies (http://www.ibm.com/lotus/openclient)...

Pitcher Alex Godzak has been named to the 2013 Louisville Slugger Freshman All-America Team by Collegiate Baseball. Godzak is the fourth Canisius player to be named a Freshman All-American in the past seven seasons.
The 2013 MAAC Rookie of the Year, Godzak went 8-3 with a 3.36 earned run average in 16 appearances, including 12 starts. The Syracuse, N.Y. native pitched 83 innings, struck out 66 batters and held the opposition to a .234 batting average. A three-time MAAC Rookie of the Week, Godzak was a part of the first nine-inning no-hitter in program history on March 29. The 5-foot-9 lefty threw seven no-hit innings and combined with two relievers to complete the no-hitter. He ranked fifth in the MAAC in earned run average, tied for fourth in strikeouts and was third in victories.
Godzak joins Ian Choy (2007), Shane Davis (2008) and teammate Devon Stewart (2012) as previous Golden Griffins who have been selected as Freshman All-Americans.
Canisius won a program and conference-record 42 games during the 2013 season, making the program's first appearance in the NCAA Tournament. The Golden Griffins have won 217 games during the past six seasons, the second-most wins by a school in the Northeast since 2008. Canisius ranks 30th in the country in winning percentage (.622) during that timeframe and is the only school in the Northeast with 33 or more wins in five of the last six seasons.

Hey guys,
I am looking into what type of choke this is on my a5? Is it the browning invector type threads ? It has a polychoke deluxe adjustable choke on it. I assume this just tightens up all the way then slowly unscrew it until desired choke size aiming arrow toward sight? Thanks for the help. My grandad would be happy it's still in use. :-)

I have recently applied for a CELTA course in Thailand which finishes around May/June time. What is the likelihood of my getting a job there once qualified? When do their terms start/finish. How difficult would it be to go on to teach in India with this same qualification?
I had been advised that qualifications are only needed in Europe but wanted an intensive course to build up my confidence as I have never tauht before.
I would appreciate any info you could give me!

Go for Cannon SX40. It's a 12 is basically Megapixel camera with 35 optical zoom. But the newmodel is 14 Megapixel. The cannon SX40 has HS (high sensitivity screen) and view finder.With IS technology. And buy the Camera from India, where you live. Cause for any problem or suggestion you can reach local show room very easily.
Posted 28 April 2012 - 04:54 AM
thank you...but iv heard camera dat come to india are china made..will that make a difference in d quality or durability?
Posted 28 April 2012 - 05:44 AM
Giant companies like Intel, Sony and many others have factories in China to cover south east Asia. I don't think Brand like cannon will compromise quality.
Posted 28 December 2012 - 03:49 AM
I did like Canno rather than Nikon.

Maybe they need to be put on an endagered list...... but then they may not let us play with them anymore????
I find it rather ironic, really, that so many people will advocate trapping out a hive to save the honeybees when all that is doing is saving a few thousand of individual bees but the hive genetics will be completely lost. There are lots of good reasons to trap bees out, but CCD and genetics and mite resistance is not one of them.
I saw a blurb in the most recent Farm Bureau newsletter that NJ is close to passing (or just passed) a bill that says exterminators must make arrangements to relocate bees instead of killing them, and if they can't be relocated, they must get permission from the state before killing them.
It would make sense if there were laws in place to protect beekeeper's honeybees from potential...vandals, I'd say. Destruction of property.
Quote from: riverose on February 02, 2008, 02:35:15 PMIt would make sense if there were laws in place to protect beekeeper's honeybees from potential...vandals, I'd say. Destruction of property. I don't know if each state has this but in PA there have been some recent laws regarding agricultural vandalism,terrorism, theft etc... which should apply to any ag crop including pollinators and honey
The problem with that is you classify bees as ag and it opens a whole new can of worms. Hobbiest beekeepers may keep bees in an area where keeping ag items is not allowed. Konasdad posted some great information on the issues NJ is having with that on property taxes alone.Sincerely,Brendhan

Wildcats Participating in All-Star Weekend
Feb. 7, 2013
LEXINGTON, Ky. – The 2013 NBA All-Star weekend in Houston, will have a blue feel to it, as six former Wildcats have been selected to participate in various All-Star festivities.

Saturday night, NBA All-Star Saturday Night presented by State Farm will showcase Knight, who will participate in the The Taco Bell Skills Challenge. The Skills Challenge was introduced at NBA All-Star 2003 in Atlanta and features six players competing in a two-round timed "obstacle course" consisting of dribbling, passing and shooting stations. All players must observe basic NBA ball-handling rules while completing the course.
Eric Bledsoe will close out the evening in the 2013 Sprite Slam Dunk Contest. All-Star Saturday Night is scheduled to begin at 8:30 p.m. on TNT.
Rajon Rondo was selected to participate in the 2013 NBA All-Star game on Sunday, Feb., 17, however a season-ending knee injury will force him to watch from the sidelines.

Smoking tobacco is the number one risk factor for lung cancer, although people who have never smoked can develop lung cancer, too. If you have been smoking for years, you may believe it is "too late" to quit. However, quitting at any point in time reduces your risk for developing lung cancer, as well as other cancers.

Anything that increases your risk of getting a disease is called a risk factor. Having a risk factor does not mean that you will get cancer. Not having risk factors doesn't mean that you will not get cancer. If you think you may be at risk, you should discuss it with your doctor.
We use genomic tumor assessment to examine a patient's tumor on a genetic level. This innovative tool can help us find what's driving the cancer's growth and offer patients more precise treatment.

text: Things for clearing a few things up. Right now one uses Ethanol because of the benefits it has for ones own motor and cost, as you stated above. It will not be widely available, due to the lack of a distribution network (i.e. pipeline). To make it widely available it needs to be distributed by semi truck, which would cancel out any price and environmental benefits.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
We added Yann for a calming influence on Sofie. Everyone told me it was a bad idea, it wouldn't work, etc...but all my life I've owned multiple dogs and it's always worked out better than singles. The difference in Sofie is absolutely amazing. It's been good for Yann, too. Sofie is calmer and more focused on training. Yann is more active so his hips don't bother him as much, he eats better, and is showing the personality his breeder said he showed as a younger dog. We also did a LOT of looking around before deciding on Yann, I think if you are careful with the pairing it can work out great :-)
So glad it worked out for y'all!
Sofie Rose born 08/2012
Yann von Erzengel born 02/2006
|So glad this has worked out! We had a friend that owned a body shop, he worked long days but loved his dog (Lab). He found his dog was the least stressed when he was gone when he had companionship and getting another dog worked out well.
|Harry and Lola
|Adding another dog is fantastic - when it works out. Before I got Harry I took on a 6yo GSD male, Lola was 2yo. He was a beautiful boy with a lovely temperament and I was so happy to be able to rescue him, however Lola hated him. Lola is a very easy going girl with a great temperament, however as a pup and juvenile she was attacked by large breed dogs and is not very good with them, so I should have wondered if it was going to work out, unfortunately it was the worse thing for both dogs, it eventually resulted in a full on dog fight in my lounge room. I had to return the male, but he was rehomed with a great family so things fortunately worked out for him and Lola was ecstatic when I bought 8 week old Harry home - she loves him and to this day they are very very close to each other. So, really does depend on the dogs.
I made a horrible, terrible, not-wise decision once when we were having some issues with one of our dogs, and that was to add a third dog into the mix. The complete opposite of what you'd expect happened, and the 'problem' dog improved so much that it was almost like a miracle. So while in theory, and most of the time in life, adding another dog isn't the answer, but it can be a good thing too.
The only worry I'd have is making sure they don't bond so much that they exclude you.
|David Taggart
|Obedient team dogs? Both of them should look into your mouth before you pronounce anything. My humble advice: make two different balls your major training tools for two dogs at once. Decide to whom your right and left hands would belong, dogs have a strong sense of left and right. They should be ball mad for the start. A simple game with two balls when one dog is sitting and waiting for his turn, and the second dog runs after. Please, don't forget, that each dog should have his/her own toy, otherwise you would struggle with the issue of giving the priority.
|Glad it's all working out and Kia is settling in like you'd hoped. I'll always have multiple dogs. I'm their primary source of fun 95% of the time, but on occasion they can happily entertain themselves, sometimes its fun to just spectate.
|Yay! Good story glad to read some happy ones on here. Good to hear all worked out well!!
I know everyone says not to....(moved to stories)
...get a second dog to occupy the first, and that isn't why we got Kia, but she sure has helped Sabo out!
No matter WHAT I did with Sabo he was a destructive little turd! Don't get me wrong, I love him with all my heart. We would train, we would walk, we would hike, we would play hide and seek, we would tug, we would fetch...and the second I had to do something else, he was off chewing something, chasing the cat, biting the kids, destroying the yard...just in general being a puppy and being a boy. It was driving me NUTS. The dog would NOT settle!
I started figuring he was bored. Human interaction wasn't enough for him. He loved the dog park (though I never took him...my anxiety would transfer to him and he would be anxious...unless we were meeting with a dog I knew, I didn't go) and loved to be with other dogs. He was never a cuddle bug. Once in a while he would grace my with his butt and sit on the couch.
I wanted another dog. More mellow, but still wanting to play. One who would cuddle...who I hoped could teach Sabo to cuddle and could be a companion. And well, I just wanted another dog.
We brought home Kia. You all know my stress those first few days/two weeks. We've had her for three weeks now and she was the absolute BEST decision we have ever made. She cuddles. She plays with Sabo. Granted, if allowed, they both dig in the backyard (we've stopped caring about that if that's the worst they do!)...but they are together. Sabo now SETTLES in the house! They will lay on their beds, or she will be on the couch and he will lay on the opposite couch or his bed.
Over all...for us, it worked out.
Thank you EVERYONE for being so supportive during my spazzoid time trying to get her to fit in and relax. I think she has. By golly...I think we've done it!

It looks to me like all they are trying to do is to stop religious based harassment.
I certainly wouldn't want to be in a situation where I had to put up with having a superior pushing their religious beliefs on me.
I don't believe either belongs in the military, separation of church and state and all that. And I AM a religious person. I don't want other people's religions pushed on me or my kids, so I can't do the pushing on others, either.
I notice that many people are comfortable with religion and state mixed UNTIL a different religion than theirs is in the mix. I think that's hypocritical.

Click for "Microbes After Hours" videos
Over millions of years of evolution, we humans have worked out a mutually beneficial partnership with the microbes that came to inhabit our guts. In return for their aid in digestion, we give them a stable, protected home and plenty of nutrients via the food we eat. We need them as much as they need us.
Microbes break down food molecules our body's enzymes and acids can't dissolve, helping us squeeze all the nutrients out of our food. Some make valuable vitamins that our body needs.
Many microbial species have proved to be consummate evolutionary wheelers and dealers, arranging collaborations, mergers, and acquisitions that usually serve both partners well.
The pea root sends a chemical message that attracts Rhizobia, then surrounds the bacteria, whcih set up housekeeping inside the root's cells.
Rhizobia are bacteria that form nodules on the roots of legumes to supply them with nitrogen; in return, the plants provide the bacteria with carbohydrates.
Mycorrhizae are soil-dwelling fungi that act as extensions of plants' roots, enabling them to vastly increase their nutrient-absorbing network. The plants provide the fungi energy in the form of carbohydrates.
Zooxanthelle are photosynthetic algae that live inside the body tissues of coral polyps. They provide nutrients to their polyp hosts in exchange for a protected, stable environment and nutrients they need for growth.
Lichens are an alliance of fungi and algae that allows each to grow in environments where neither could survive alone, like deserts, rocks, or tree bark.

Many think that comic books are mainly about superhero action. Clearly that isn't the case. Comics are full of love and romance. I even wrote an article about it a year ago. DC Comics realizes that readers do enjoy the romance (and complications) in comic books (look at all the talk about Superman and Wonder Woman sharing a kiss).
Today, DC has announced more love in comics coming your way. On February 6 (just in time for Valentine's Day), YOUNG ROMANCE: A NEW 52 VALENTINE'S DAY SPECIAL #1 will be headed to a comic shop near you.
Featuring characters such as Wonder Woman, Superman, Batgirl, Catwoman, Batwoman, Aquaman, Mera, Apollo, Midnighter, and Dick Grayson, YOUNG ROMANCE: A NEW 52 VALENTINE'S DAY SPECIAL #1 will also include perforated Valentine's Day cards featuring the stars of its stories.
The anthology will feature stories by Andy Diggle, Ann Nocenti, Cecil Castellucci, Peter Milligan and Lauren Beukes, and art by Gene Ha, Emanuella Luppichinno, Phil Jimenez, Sanford Green and more.
It might be easy to dismiss this as a bunch of lovey-dovey hogwash (does anyone use 'hogwash' anymore?), but when you look at the creators involved, you know there will be some good stuff here. Plus, it's love. Love is all you need, right?
No word on the price. For 64 pages, I imagine it'd be priced less than the recent Vertigo comic GHOSTS, that had a cover price of $7.99 for 80 pages. But with that cover by Kenneth Rocafort, I imagine people will want to pick this up. Plus, everyone enjoys love in their comics. They just might not want to admit it.

KNOXVILLE -- The No. 10 UT men's swimming and diving team defeated Southeastern Conference rival Kentucky, 123-120, Friday evening at the UT Student Aquatic Center in an event that was exciting down to the very end.
"As predicted, this classic SEC showdown unfolded closely," UT head coach John Trembley said. "Our guys had been made aware that Kentucky was off to a fast start and that this Kentucky team is the strongest they have ever assembled.
With the Vols trailing Kentucky 116-110 with one event to go, it was up to the 400-yard freestyle relay team to regain the lead. Bryan Goldberg, Brad Duryea, Casey Dauw and Tyler Gustafson pulled through in the clutch to win the event in 2:59.66. The team of Adam Farnham, Brad Boswell, Chris Wary and Jason Thomas finished third in 3:05.93.
"Everybody ahead of me did a great job," sophomore Tyler Gustafson, who swam the anchor on the relay, said. "I just made sure I got my hand on the wall first."
Vol diving duo Phillip Jones and Jevon Tarantino picked up where they left off last season by taking the top-two spots on both the one and three-meter springboards. Jones took first in 321.97 on the one-meter and added another victory on the three-meter with 368.77 points. Tarantino took second in both events with 304.95 and 367.12 points, respectively. Junior John Venditti finished sixth on the one-meter and freshman Ryan Rincon finished fourth on the three-meter.
"No question that our guys can perform their dives on a higher standard," UT diving coach Dave Parrington said. "I was extremely happy with the competitiveness our guys showed tonight. I was pleased with John Venditti back on the boards coming off wrist surgery and Ryan's (Rincon) progress."
Gustafon won the 200-yard freestyle in 1:38.33 narrowly edging Goldberg who finished second in 1:38.50. Wary finished fifth in 1:43.62.
Gustafson couldn't pull away from Goldberg in the 100-yard freestyle with the pair tying for second in 45.36. Daniel Farnham of Kentucky finished first in 44.88. Daniel is also the brother of Vol freshman Adam Farnham.
Junior Casey Dauw brought home a victory for the Vols in the 200-yard individual medley in 1:49.24. Freshman Michael Wolfe finished third (1:54.13) while junior Kiel Huston finished fourth (1:54.62).
Boswell led the way for the Vols in the 500-yard freestyle, finishing second in 4:31.77. Dauw and Thomas followed in third (4:32.21) and fourth (3:36.51).
Huston finished second in the 200-yard breaststroke in 2:04.46. Sophomore Chris Franklin finished fifth in 2:16.06. Kristian Outinen of Kentucky finished first (2:02.42).
The Vols took the 2-3-4 spots in the 1000-yard freestyle. Thomas took second (7:34.86) with Boswell in third (7:37.23) and Chris Franklin in third (7:44.01). Steven Manley won the event for the Wildcats in 9:19.23.
Next up for the Vols is the Nike Cup Invitational in Chapel Hill, N.C., Nov. 18-20.

text: I put about as much stock in +/- as I do in the "per 48 min" stat. It's great to try to make a point, but is ultimately useless in determining actual real life game-time wins and losses. You know...I fail to see the urgency and all out tragedy in a guy who's job it is to bring the ball across half-court, hit the first guy running off a screen on either side, then run himself off the available screen on the opposite side. I've seen very few possessions this season, or any season, where Lindsey Hunter the "All Offense Killing Cancer" has failed to do this on numerous occasions. If there is one thing Hunter does too often, it's pass the ball to the wingman a dribble to late on the break. However, he's done that his whole career and I see no reason to expect different since no coach has bothered to try and correct it. You guys just hate Hunter for the sake of hating Hunter. This guy hasn't cost us any games. He hasn't been the sole reason that any team has laid the hammer to us and if left up to some of you, Hunter could cure AIDS tomorrow and have an entire thread torching him because he didn't cure cancer. The guy does his job and his "ruining" an offense is just as overstated as Carlos Arroyo being the answer to our so-called "PG" woes.

a business owner who works and runs their business alone
'When I began my career as a freelance writer about eight years ago, one of the biggest obstacles I faced was figuring out how to become a solopreneur and still have good healthcare … or healthcare at all.'Parade 10th October 2013
'How to Turn Your Solopreneurial Dream into Reality … Fed up of corporate world? Getting fired? Want to turn your passion into a real business? For whatever reasons you may have, solopreneurship often comes up as an answer.'Biz Penguin 18th January 2013
Working life has undergone a radical change during the last hundred years. Previous generations had, by and large, a degree of job security and a career path which usually set them up for life. By the early 21st century, however, ever rising unemployment and a turbulent economic climate had eroded that kind of stability, forcing much of the population to be flexible and creative about how they earn a living.
the solopreneur is … a 'company of one' and single-handedly working for the business, running the business, meeting all its costs and enjoying all the profit
It's in these conditions that a growing number of people have been kick-started into self-employment, starting their own businesses and/or seeking work independently rather than being a regular company employee. And of course this has all been made infinitely more effective by the Internet, which came along at just the right time to completely revolutionize the concept of 'going it alone'. In the 21st century, all anyone needs to set up their own 'office' is a computer and decent web access. This scenario has given birth to a new term for describing a particular kind of enterprising individual – the solopreneur.
The solopreneur is basically a business owner who does everything on their own. They, as an individual, are the business, functioning as a 'company of one' and single-handedly working for the business, running the business, meeting all its costs and enjoying all the profit. Though they may occasionally outsource work when in need of assistance, they are essentially a one-man band, employing no one but themselves.
In some senses, the term solopreneur is just a 21st century take on the word freelancer/freelance, describing a person who doesn't work permanently for one company but sells their services to a range of companies. But use of the word solopreneur suggests additional business acumen, a person who makes optimum use of 21st century technology (i.e. online media, networking opportunities, etc) to market themselves in the right places and garner the best possible financial return for their services.
The term solopreneur is of course a blend of the adjective solo meaning 'done by one person alone' and the noun entrepreneur, which refers to someone who starts their own business and is good at spotting and securing the best business opportunities. The word solopreneur first began to appear in 2010, gaining ground partly by websites dedicated to the concept and by its use in social media (e.g. as a Twitter hashtag). Following the derivational pattern of entrepreneur, there's also a related adjective solopreneurial, a noun solopreneurship, and a small amount of evidence for the noun solopreneurism.
The word entrepreneur first appeared in English in the 1820s and originally referred to a manager or promoter of a theatrical production. Its more general use in relation to business was first attested some years later in 1852. The word itself is a borrowing based on old French entreprendre, meaning 'undertake'.

Now that the 2012 elections are over and races have been decided, it is time to say thanks to a group of folks who made it all happen. This would be the Columbia County Board of Elections staff.
They have done an exemplary job in handling primaries, runoffs and then the general election, which included the highest office in the nation.
I would like to make a special tribute to Nancy Gay, our registration coordinator, who was thrown into the job of leading the elections office and managing the elections. She, along with all of the staff, are to be commended.
With Thanksgiving Day approaching, perhaps it could do us well to travel back to the year 1620.
America's Christian forefathers, the Pilgrims, are preparing to set sail on their voyage to the so-called "New World."
The Pilgrims dream of worshipping God in spirit and in truth, far from the Catholic-like Church of England and its oppressive partnership with the English Crown. ... The Pilgrims wish to live freely as English Christians.
Several years ago, I wrote that I felt 1913 was a very bad year for our republic. It recently has become even worse.
Very few people like the 16th Amendment. It has been shown that two competent tax experts often will get different results when asked to complete a complicated tax return.
I look in awesome wonder at the criticisms and character attacks heaped upon people who choose to offer themselves for public office. In most cases these attacks are born of absolute lies.
How many of us would wish the same thing on our family and ourselves? What causes people who will never put themselves into a political contest to be so critical of those who try? How many wish to be called a "Honey Boo Boo" and nincompoop, incapable and political bum, and have their family endure the pain of reading such comments?
Lee Anderson and family have endured it all.
Voters in Georgia's 12th Congressional District are asked to send a "new, conservative voice to Congress." What we really need is a voice in Congress – one that will represent us fairly and intelligently.
We're given, as an option, electing Lee Anderson. Sadly, Anderson appears to have no voice. He does not speak at all anymore. A spokesman for his campaign does all the talking. Who will be moving his lips in Washington? Does this mean an unelected staffer will be speaking for him and for us?
I strongly urge Columbia County residents to vote for Lee Anderson for representative of Georgia's 12th Congressional District. He is the only candidate who will work with Mitt Romney to stop reckless spending, pay down our debt and repeal and replace Obamacare.
Lee Anderson is running for Congress. He says he won't debate John Barrow because Barrow might vote for Nancy Pelosi for speaker. His apologists say Barrow is a skilled, trained orator with whom Lee cannot compare in verbal communication. This is misleading. Lee Anderson and his handlers don't want you to learn the truth about his awful record in the Georgia House.
Re Debra Roache's letter concerning discrimination in sports because of size (Oct. 10):
There is nothing harder than seeing the child you love unable to participate in a certain sport because he or she comes up short in height or weight. This has happened in my family also. My grandson didn't even have to be told. He knew, and his father knew, and steered him to a sport that he could play successfully. This young man now has an athletic scholarship and is doing well in college.
If we are still free-enterprise devoted American citizens, we owe it to our children and grandchildren to stop the proliferation of entitlement spending under this Obama administration and tell Congress to close all tax loopholes they have created.
According to the Haskins Report, federal government spending per person in poverty has tripled since 1980, and yet there is still an increase in the rate of poverty. Obama's policies and regulations keep restricting private job creation and killing most energy developments.

High Hopes
With minivan, road gets a little smoother for Merrimack family
By NANCY BEAN FOSTER
Union Leader Correspondent | September 12. 2013 10:50PM
Kamryn Batchelder, 9, and his sister Jade check out the van donated to their family by the High Hopes Foundation on Thursday. (Nancy Bean Foster)
Diane and Scott Batchelder of New Hampton have been raising their five grandchildren on and off for more than a decade in a small house that barely fits them all. When granddaughter Shayleigh, 7, developed a serious health problem, the family that was just making ends meet found themselves in crisis.
"She goes through a lot of spinal taps and has to be seen several times a month," said Diane. "She's starting to have a hard time reading, which is hard because reading is one of her favorite things."
Luckily, the family's social worker, Katy Gautsch, understood the dire straits the family was in and reached out to the High Hopes Foundation, a nonprofit organization that traditionally strives to make the dreams of seriously or chronically ill children come true. But in the Batchelder's case, getting the family reliable transportation was the goal.
The Batchelder kids, ranging in age from 2 to 11, hopped right into the van and found surprises hiding in the back. But mostly they were just happy to have a comfortable new vehicle.

Delawares Lindsay Prettyman Posts Solid 117th Place Finish at NCAA Cross Country Championships
Related Links
Prettyman, a senior from Newark, Del. (St. Mark's High School), finished the 6,000-meter course in a time of 21:25.6 to finish in 117th place among the 253-runner field. She passed 100 runners over the final 4,000 meters to improve her standing.
She placed 12th among all NCAA Mid-Atlantic Region runners after placing 20th at the regional meet last week.
"Lindsay ran very well," said Delaware assistant coach Tim Brock, who accompanied Prettyman to the national meet. "In her first national meet, she acted like she had been there before and represented Delaware very well. With only 4.2 percent of all Division I runners making nationals, it was a quality field."
Prettyman, who was the Blue Hens' top runner in 18 of the final 19 meets of her career, was the first Blue Hen to compete at the NCAA Championships since Kim Mitchell competed at the 1984 meet at Penn State and finished 78th overall.
She also was just the third UD runner to compete at the national meet, also joining Mitchell and Sandy Gibney, who earned All-American honors with a 16th place finish at the 1981 AIAW national championship at Pocatello, Idaho.
Dartmouth senior Abbey D'Agostino was the individual winner as she covered the muddy course in a time of 20:00.03. Providence won the team title with 141 points and was followed by Arizona, Butler, Michigan, Georgetown, Michigan State, Colorado, Florida State, Virginia, and New Mexico.

assemble the parts in the lower and pull the trigger forward till it contacts the wedge. then scribe a line with a razor on the wedge at the front of the trigger. that is where to trim it.
Hello Pirate I know you have been busy. I needed to ask you for a advise of installing your semi FCG for the RPD. I see the assembly of the whole trigger set up. I see the "wedge" shaped part would need to be trimmed fitted to the trigger. The semi design is the trigger pushes the wedge which will push the whole assembly forward therefore will release the striker block to fire the firing pin, correct?, but how do you determine how much to cut off the wedge part? Appreicate your advise, Thanks Have a good one
Hello Pirate I was thinking the same idea, to first scribe the line then cut the wedge, I didn't want to guess a cut and ruin the wedge, thanks for confirming that. You've been a big help. Have a good one Cheers
Sorry if this is common knowledge but where do i purchase this fcg?

I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas
i always shop lo-cal...it helps the shops in my community!
This year I've been using mail-order catalogs, online shopping, and local shopping. I love any kind of shopping! When my knee hurts, I grab a cart for support.

Local (need to support local merchants)
....... and online (well with our strong Aussie dollar it's too good a deal to resist even with international shipping costs)
I guess the merchandizing of the holiday has ingrained Macy's into my head because I will make two of three tips their every season when shopping for my girlfriend, mom, or sister. Other than that, I'll head to Best Buy (for electronics) or Kohls (for clothing and apparel) I am smack in the middle of about 6 malls so, when I am feeling brave enough to deal with the traffic, I will head to one of them.
"I have always thought of Christmas time, when it has come round, as a good time; a kind, forgiving, charitable time; the only time I know of, in the long calendar of the year, when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely, and to think of people below them as if they really were fellow passengers to the grave, and not another race of creatures bound on other journeys." ~Charles Dickens
I don't do much shopping, but I buy most things online, often at amazon. If I go to a b&m store, it's likely going to be Walmart since it's closer than other stores.
I generally do alot of shopping through Ebay and Walmart but, this year I'm going to try and do something a little different. I'm also a member at the Halloween Forum and this last Halloween season they did something called "Secret Reaper" which is very similar to the Secret Santa. Many people purchased items from second hand stores and re-purposed them. Those gifts seemed to be the most loved. I think I'm going to try and do that for each person on my christmas list. I love crafts of any kind so it might work. We shall see
Nearly all shopping is done online, love the convenience.

Replicas of 19th century ships to sail off Seacoast
By MIKE LAWRENCE
Union Leader Correspondent | July 28. 2014 7:53PM
Public sails will be offered in Portsmouth Wednesday, Thursday and Friday on the Lynx, a replica of a War of 1812 clipper privateer. (Courtesy of Piscataqua Maritime Commission)
"Our mission is to maintain and educate the public on the maritime heritage of the region," Coker said Monday. "Portsmouth at one time was a huge boat-building center."
The Lynx is a replica of a War of 1812 Baltimore clipper. The original vessel was intended to harass British merchant ships off the coast and draw British warships away from America's fledgling fleet.
"It's low in the water; it has raked-back masts. It actually looks like a sports car," he said.
This week's daytime sails cost $55 per person, or $75 per person for Friday's Parade of Sail. Children 12 and younger can join for $30. Information and ticket services can be accessed online at www.sailportsmouth.org.

Has anyone been surprised by the examination results for the English philology exams which are taken to enable a student to enter a Greek university?
I have and this is the second time. Both of my daughters have taken this exam, one after having passed the Cambridge Proficiency with distinction was awarded 7, while the other who also passed the Cambridge FCE with A and the Michigan Proficiency was given 9.5!!!!
At the same time, students that I know have unsuccessfully attempted to pass the Michigan Proficiency on numerous occasions have been given 15.
The inconsistency is incredible,indeed, my daughters' papers were marked by three examiners, the first giving a mark of 15 while the second awarded 6, therefore making it necessary to appoint a third examiner who diplomatically awarded a mark in between.
How can one award 15 and the other 6? Who has a better knowledge of this language?
I have vowed not to let my second daughter take this exam again because I believe it is is not worth the humiliation.
