No way he asks.
A sad lose. We didn't have Pistons game on TV, lived nor taped thus far this season, obviously we won't have any if they keep playing like this :(
I've yet to see him coach a good game, my friend.
Agree with all of your points Hog. I expect Flip to get his %%%%% chewed out by Joe on the plane ride to Sacramento. They almost lost Sunday's sonics game because the starters were over played in the 3rd qtr and tonight he plays them the whole qtr and then sends Rip and Sheed out to play the first 90 seconds of the 4th.??? Billups was injured slightly in the third, left him in...Tay and Dice were ailing and they got over played. Flip might be on to something though, because this bench can't seem to play anyway especially when there are more than 3 of them in there at once....how about a trade???? Flip Jr and Nazr are as bad as we already knew they were. We need a force in the middle as big as Kevin Duckworth
Most of Rip's misses were close or in the paint. Can't blame him for trying. It just wasn't working out. You are correct to blame the coach for leaving the cold hand in and calling so many plays for him when he wasn't feelin' it.
I don't think it's as much of bench being in there as it is a couple of crappy players that keep messing things up. Nazr is useless. Flip Jr is having hot and cold streaks. The 2nd unit needs Chauncey or Tay keeping things together, it seemed to work before.
Rip was forcing too much. I know he wants to win and help the team, but sometimes he needs to take a step back and leave scoring up to someone else. If he can't, Flip needs to sub for him. Simple as that.
I hope we don't have to wait that long for that. I hope he gets chewed right away from JoeD.
I'll be at the game tomorrow. I'll see if I can get within the earshot of Flip.
Good writeups by several people, thanks. Not much positive to say about Flip Saunder's coaching. I certainly won't add anything positive myself. Here is a negative though. At this point, the decision to keep Flip Saunders is making the Piston front office and the owner look well, lets just say real bad and be polite about it. This guy is just flat out rebelling all the way about the youth movement thing. Afflalo got to play, and he played some good solid D, and gave a noticeable energy boost to the Pistons while on the floor. But it did not matter. After his 4 minutes or so, Flip Murray got the rest of the backup guard minutes. Prince played just a bit in the backcourt too. Flip Murray had a decent game on offense. Some scattered decisions, but some good ones too. Plus he made that triple as time expired in the 3rd to tie the game up. And started the 4th quarter with a layup. On defense, we just could not do anything on defense with Flip in the game. However, no, I won't pin all that on him. The fact is that Hayes is a bit slow footed, Dyess is too, and Mohammed resembles a stationary object quite closely. This is the kind of defense Saunders chose to put in in the first half. He did better in the 2nd half, leaving Mohammed out. (But negated that positive by not playing Afflalo in the 2nd half. In total, our bench was horrid, with mediocre guard play and no defense. Dyess apparently is injured. He has been overplayed, but I do not know if that is contributing to his injury, or maybe keeping it from healing. Dyess hates not to play. But Flip Saunders is the guy overplaying this guy. I hate to say it, cause I would never wish Dyess any pain, but if Dyess can't play, it means Maxiell starts - which is a good thing. Flip Saunders is still on a personal campaign to ice Jason by giving him very irregular minutes. Why he did not play the end of this game is a mystery. Sure, he ain't perfect, but he was the only guy we had blocking shots. Just before he came out he blocked a shot on one end and scored in the post on the other. Unless he got injured and this was not mentioned. (or was it. Kind of confused on that point as they did say Maxiell was injured -but while talking about the Dyess injury - so I am not sure.) Hayes scored in the post a bit, and he made a triple that was simply too late to do us any good. Not enough for to make up for his lack of speed on D. Rip made some shots, but missed a lot too. This included missing one completely unguarded layup. On D, he did not help much as he was just a bad matchup tonight - a rare thing for him really, but just maybe Afflalo was the right guy for this game. I believe we could have won just with Afflalo's better D. Tay was more aggressive. He did make an outside shot or two, but did most of his damage going right to the basket. Billups had a so so game. He made some shots, made some nice feeds. But he also missed a lot of shots. Sheed had a pretty darn good game on offense, especially so in the first half, making triples and scoring inside too. His defense? Pretty good when Maxiell was playing along side him. Not good enough to compensate for guys like Hayes, Dyess playing along side him. Let me see, starters overplayed again, Amir did not play, Afflalo limited to one quick appearance. Tricky (My new name for Flip) gave the illusion of playing youth by giving Afflalo that early stint in the 1st quarter, but its pretty obvious what he is doing. Five minutes for Amir last game, but no Afflalo. About five minutes for Afflalo this game, but no Amir. And meanwhile doing his level headed best to ice out JMAX. JMAX would have played several minutes less in this one if Dyess had not picked up his 3rd foul in the 2nd quarter. Yeah, Portand does have some talent. But our starters are better than their starters. And if Afflalo and JMAX get heavy minutes, our bench is better than theirs. But you throw in a lot of Flip Murray and Mohammed, our bench can't compete with theirs, and that was the ball game. Bad loss. Not a blessed thing toward making us a playoff winner. We get a guy injured. Billups is banged up, and all Flip will do about that is maybe play Hunter a bit next game. We are still 5-2. We still have a great team, which Flip Saunders has not managed to tear down completely yet this season (though he is mightily working on it.) Stay positive everyone, and hope Dumars steps in and rights the ship. GO PISTONS!!!!!
Lee, thanks for the recap. And I agree with pretty much all you said, except that Chauncey was 7-13 from the field, and I'd call it a good shooting percentage for a guard. Can't do much better than that on most nights. Meanwhile Rip missed a lot more than he hit, going 5-20. But defense was pretty bad pretty much all night.
Can you print off the comments from tonights thread and stick it on Flip's chair at halftime? Maybe after reading it he will think twice and insert a couple of bench players in there midway thru the 3rd qtr. Have a good time. Normally when one us is in attendance, the Pistons win.
let's face it- Flip won't get it done. For years, we've been seeing the same thing over and over. He has real problems to create good rotations that play good together. He only trusts his starters, especially if games get close and he doesn't care if they got worn out, as long as his regular season looks good. Yes, the Pistons are still one of the elite teams in this league- but there are enough reasons to worry if they're a real contender.
Good Leecap Mr 356/357 Is it possible we can get those "rotations" to Joe so he can filter them down to Flip. This guy is killing us before we can get out of the block. Yeah we are 5-2, will lose a few games and should be happy. But there is no reason why the Pistons shouldn't be 7-0. I would have no issues if we were 5-2 and those 2 losses were the Spurs, Mavs,Rockets, Jazz or Suns as we still have work to do. But to lose games this early in the season to the Blazers and Bulls because you are afraid to insert and train bench players falls right into the last two years unsuccessful playbook.
Now that is funny. I don't think this game is going to make 'Ol Nazr's highlight reel. Is there a weaker player in the L than Rip? As he missed his first layup of the game the Portland announcers were saying " there is Hamilton doing what he does" and I was thinking yes he is - he's missing layups. At least no one landed on his head this time. I almost hit the floor laughing when he missed his 3rd wide open layup with 19 seconds to go in the game. Portland had totally backed off so they wouldn't foul by this point. I think half the WNBA could hit an 'and 1' against him. The Pistons offense has zero flow to it. They had some nice movement early going to Sheed inside and getting jumpers off of that. That is the exception. Watch how many times DET is on D and they have two guys confused and rotating out to the ball leaving another wide open. I am sure the DET News will tell me this is the players fault. CB only played 32-33 minutes.
Does he even have a playbook? Flip - We're going to work on this play tonight: Chauncey passes the ball to Rip. Everyone just stand and watch him taking a forced jumper.
Guess what? You're actually wrong on this one. Our good friend McCoskey is all over Rip in this game:
Have to agree on the mins in this one. 41 a piece for Sheed and Tay is too much. 39 for Rip when he just played 41 the other game. Plus Billups and Dyess are banged up and we have another game Wed night. Portland is tough at home. They look like an older version of the Sonic team, old enough not to fold down the stretch.
Well I'll be a horse's behind. I guess it's like Sheed says, 'The sun shines on a dogs butt once in a while.' Enjoy the game tomorrow.
losing is not something that worries me. We will lose at least 25 - 30 games in the season. what worries me is that we lose such games while our starters play those heavy minutes. Now CB and Mcdice are both hurt. Thanks Flip, way to go for the rest of the season

DEMOCIDE--Government Murders!
I copied this from INFOWARS because I consider it to be extremely important. It was written by Melissa Melton. It may be a sign of things to come in America:
In the 20th century, the greatest unnatural killer of human beings was not plague, cancer, or accidents. It was democide: death by government.
Governments murdered more people in the last 100-plus years than any other killer in existence on record. Statistics vary between 250 and 300 million dead depending on the source, but these counts typically only include civilian casualties and are underestimated. With military deaths added, the numbers soar much, much higher.
As illustrated in Alex Jones New World Order: Blueprint of Madmen (below), here are just a few countries that have slaughtered millions in the past century:
China (PRC) (1949 1987) 76,702,000 people killed.
USSR (1917 1987 ) 61,911,000 people killed.
Western Colonialism (combined) 50,000,000 people killed.
Hitlers Germany (1933 1945) 20,946,000 people killed, including their own population.
Japan (1936 1945) 5,964,000 people killed.
Pol Pots Cambodia (1975 1979) 2,035,000 people killed. Pol Pot was funded by U.S. government.
The death toll is so big, the horrifying devastation is hard to fathom. The list of serial killing governments goes on and on. For more statistics on governments murdering their citizenry, visit the University of Hawaiis democide webpage.
What did many of these slain people have in common? They were disarmed. In many cases, bans on firearm possession left the majority of guns in the hands of a state who then turned its weapons against its own people.
Lenin, Stalin, Hitler and Mao all banned private gun ownership. As the Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership (JPFO) points out, When the civilians are defenseless and their government goes bad [...] thousands and millions of innocents die. JPFO has made two videos underscoring the gun control agenda targeting vulnerable groups, then enslaving and murdering them following disarmament (see here and here).
For a rundown of how gun control or the idea that government controls all the guns while the people are disarmed and helpless against it visit the JPFO website.
The 2nd Amendment reads, A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
The phrase shall not be infringed is as straight forward as it gets. The reason this Amendment was written had nothing to do with hunting and everything to do with protecting ourselves from a tyrannical, out of control government and its standing army.
In the wake of the tragic Connecticut school massacre, we have witnessed an all out war on our 2nd Amendment rights, culminating in Senator Dianne Swinestein calling for draconian anti-gun legislation which Obama says he will put his full weight behind.
These laws would not have stopped the Sandy Hook massacre, considering the guns were stolen, used in what was supposed to be a gun-free zone which was first broken into, and Connecticut already had an assault weapons ban in place.
Yet, this tragedy is being used as a pretext to confiscate our guns and subvert our 2nd Amendment. History has shown that disarming citizens is tantamount to democide.
History is repeating itself.

The Penn State Sexual Misconduct Climate Survey was administered in fall 2015 on 23 Penn State Campus and provides data regarding a broad range of behaviors and climate issues related to sexual misconduct at the University.
Student Experience Survey
The Student Experience Survey was administered for the first time in Spring 2014. The survey was distributed to University Park as well as the 19 Commonwealth Campuses and aims to provide information about students' experiences, learning, and involvement that can be used for assessment and planning purposes for a variety of units across the university.
Penn State Pulse
Penn State Pulse is a survey initiative using Web and phone surveys designed to get a better understanding of students' opinions on a wide-ranging list of subjects. The program was initiated in the Spring of 1995 by the Penn State Student Affairs to gather feedback on student issues, expectations, usage, and satisfaction. Pulse reports are available online.
SARA Assessment Listserv
This listserv is used to distribute assessment-related information to interested parties. To join the list, send an email to email@example.com with the subject title Subscribe and the words Please add me to the list in the body of the email (although not required, these precautions help ensure that you will make it through the Universitys spam filters).
Analysis and Reports
Although the Penn State Pulse program may be the most recognizable of SARAs initiatives, we provide leadership on a variety of other assessment projects. Links to SARA reports, projects (including NSSE and the Student Satisfaction Survey), and recently published Pulse reports are provided here.
Assessment Resources
While there is widespread agreement that assessing the work we do in higher education is both necessary and desirable, many of us approach assessment activities with trepidation and uncertainty. Fortunately there are many resources available to both the novice and seasoned assessment practitioner.
Educational Programming Record
Staff in Student Affairs presented almost 6,000 educational programs in the 2010-11 academic year. These programs include presentations and workshops, information sessions and fairs, community building and social activities, and religious/spiritual services and activities. A summary of these programs is provided annually in early summer. Student Affairs staff record and track presented programs in the online Educational Programming Record (EPR). Access to EPR is granted to eligible staff and you can be added to the EPR system by contacting the administrator for your area.

Hey guys. I've received a couple requests for holster assemblies, and it's more efficient to construct a few sets at a time since all the right tools are spread throughout the garage (my wife calls this a mess, I call it creative genius :D).
So, I'll open up a small run of holster assemblies for anyone needing a set. Completion and estimated shipping time will be the end of March, due to the fact I will be finishing up some mold making simultaneously.
Holster assemblies will be $240 shipped in the U.S. for this run, because I have some leather remaining from the last run. They are made specifically to three of the wearer's body dimensions for a custom fit right out of the box, but still have a little adjustability for perfect dial-in. I can stain them to match SEEKER's ammo belts, or can offer nice medium or dark brown Jango tones seen in ref. pics. I'd also be willing to do any custom stain colors that Tandy carries.
I'll be constructing the new holster molds this weekend, and then production will proceed from there. Because the leather is cut specifically to the wearer's dimensions, only a payment reserves a spot on the list. Feel free to post or pm any questions.

I make almost all of my geese into hot Italian sausage. I found a recipe for hot italian sausage on the internet and modified to my taste.
This recipe is for 1 goose. I bone out the legs and thighs as well as the breasts. I generally shoot large geese in the 10+ lb range, so keep that in mind if you are shooting small geese or don't bone out the legs and thighs.
I blend this with about 1 lb of boneless pork. The primary purpose of the pork is to provide the fat necessary for the sausage to fry properly. Choose the cheapest, fattiest piece of pork you can find.
1 goose (cut into boneless pieces to feed into grinder)
1 lb pork (cut into pieces)
1 Tbsp minced garlic (I don't use the dried stuff)
4 tsp kosher salt
3 Tbsp fennel seeds (this is pretty expensive, but necessary. You can cut back based on your preference)
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 Tbsp red pepper flake (I always put extra of this. I heaping Tbsp or more is what I generally do)
2 tsp ground black pepper
I get two small bowls and put the minced garlic in one of them (because it's wet) and all the other spices mixed together in the other one.
I then start grinding and try to uniformly mix the goose, pork, garlic, and spices as I feed them through the grinder. For example, piece of goose, small amount of garlic, piece of pork, small amount of spices, ... Once everything has been through the grinder once, I mix it up a little bit to get the goose, pork, and spices a little more uniformly distributed. Then I send everything through the grinder a second time to thoroughly mix everything.
I don't stuff my sausage into casings. I use it loose like I would hamburg. I fry it with peppers, mix it into spaghetti sauce, ... This makes a moderately spicy sausage. If you don't like spicy, I would back off a little bit on the spices. If you like really spicy stuff, then this is a good place to start and then adjust your next batch according to your taste.
Since I bone out the legs, the tendons tend to get wrapped around the blades and block the holes. Sometimes I have to disassembly the grinder and clean it out. Usually, I just take it apart after the first grinding and make sure everything is clear for the second grinding. I use the course disk (the one with the largest holes) for both passes.
If you here a metallic grinding sound, you missed a pellet. Take the grinder apart, remove the pellet, and continue. Most times the pellets actually pass through into the sausage because they are smaller than the holes in the disc. So there may be shot in the sausage. I've run across about 2 pellets out of a lot of sausage.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
My vet told me when he gave it to Gretchen that deer tick labeling was in the pipeline and that he'd had fantastic results so far. It's lived up to his hype and we are very happy with it.
This year has been horrible for ticks around here. I have jokingly asked if I could give Nexgard to my kids because I have to tick check them all every day when they come in from playing.
|Nexgard is now labeled for deer ticks, we are switching from frontline to NG. I'm so paranoid of tick borne diseases. My last one had anaplasmosis and it was terrible. I had my new puppy tested and then vaccinated. Vet said I could combine NG with a collar like seresto for extra assurance.
|We had a massive infestation here, too. Since a few days after starting NexGard we've found no ticks or fleas. Gretchen takes the pill quite willingly. It's something to consider since your dog is having such a time with them.
You need to IDENTIFY the tick species. Tick encounter resource has some charts and you can even send in your tick.
If it is the Brown Dog Tick, those can complete their entire life cycle inside of your home. The other species need an intermediate host (usually a rodent or other small animal)
I would be checking every DAY. Twice a day, not every week. Also I have had good success treating the yard with beneficial nematodes from Arbico Organics; this only works if you can keep the soil moist.
Never heard of shaving him for this but now you need to protect him from the sun. That guard coat can be wonky growing back. Beau has a thick coat but by keeping the undercoat stripped, I can work a flea comb through him. That means, in the summer, daily brushing with a rake (though I am sure there are other ways)......then going over with the flea comb.
|Traveler's Mom
I won't-can't-better not comment on the shaving part.
I will say that you might consider checking him morning and again at night. You might also look into some form of treatment for your yard. Cedar oil is one option. You might want to consider using a preventative of some sort on your dog either a one drop like K9Advantic II or go with an alternative like garlic or essential oil sprays.
Lynn & Traveler
So Thor is doing great he is so active but he loves his new yard. One day while I was outside playing with him I felt a large bump on his neck. Come to find out it was a tick!! Ugh! So I got the nasty thing off him and made sure to clean it up really good and checked him over for more ticks and couldn't find any. Guess what I found the next day? Another **** tick! Thor's fur is really thick so it was super difficult to find but I managed. Once I started doing a better search on him I found like three more so I decided to shave him in order to make sure I didn't miss anything. Guess what I found when I shaved him?! Hundreds of seed ticks all over his torso. There were also three mated pairs on his body and two single ticks that were pretty engorged. So two days after that and a flea and tick bath and collar later he was tick free and really seems to be loving his new "hairdo" haha! It was horrifying but he was a trooper and behaved so well while I was treating him! Now after this ordeal I've been checking every week for any fleas or ticks. Here's a pic of my now zombie looking pup lol Attachment 216601

Aaron Ramsey was delighted to claim three points against a solid QPR side in their New Year's Eve clash at Emirates Stadium.
The Welsh midfielder admits Neil Warnock's side proved stubborn opponents on Saturday but believes that made the win especially satisfying.
"It was a tough game today, we had to be patient and wait for our chance," Ramsey told Arsenal Player.
"QPR had a good result at Swansea, which is a tough place to go, and they have kept a number of clean-sheets. They've been in good form, they're very solid defensively, so it was tough for us.
"We created a few opportunities, and on another day we probably would have scored them, but it was hard. It is a game that we are delighted to win."

Jewel Cave
National Monument
South Dakota
The thrill of pushing forward to discover what is there.
Jan Conn, Jewel Cave explorer. ca. 1975
Buried beneath the Black Hills of South Dakota is the fascinating underground world of Jewel Cave. It delights, it perplexes, and always it lures you on and on to further explorations: to see a chamber decorated with glittering calcite crystals; to sample the outstanding variety of beautiful, colorful, and strange cave formations for which Jewel Cave is famous; or to experience a small part of its more than 130 miles of intricate maze-like passages. Discover the spirit of adventure in Jewel Cave.
Underground Delights
In 1908, when Jewel Cave National Monument was established, only a few of the wonders of Jewel Cave had been discovered. Less than ½ mile of passages was known then and the primary attractions were chambers of jewel-like calcite crystals. Explorations in the past 30 years have revealed many more of Jewel Cave's underground delights. Because the cave is a scientific gem, much of it is set aside for research and is not open to the public. But tour routes have been designed so you can experience some of the best of Jewel Cave.
On a tour you can begin to sense that Jewel Cave is not the small cave it was once thought to be. It is the world's third longest known cave, a labyrinth that twists and turns for more than 130 miles below the surface. Its creation took millions of years, starting with the formation of the Black Hills, when mountain-building forces created faults in the Earth. Beginning 30 to 50 million years ago, slightly acidic groundwater seeped into these faults, dissolving the surrounding Mississippian-aged Pahasapa Limestone and, over a period of several million years, hollowing out the passages of Jewel Cave. A variety of cave formations was created during the later stages of cave development; you will see some of these on your cave tour. Many of these splendid formations are described below.
Drop by Drop
Among Jewel Cave's many formations are those that have been created by water dripping or trickling into the cave. Millions of particles of the mineral calcite deposited from millions of water droplets make up each formation. Where drops fell from the ceiling, stalactites have formed; where they hit the floor, stalagmites have grown; and where stalactites and stalagmites have merged, columns have appeared. Water trickling down a slanted ceiling has created translucent draperies, while water flowing over a wall has left behind deposits of flowstone. The Scenic and Spelunking Tours have examples of some of these beautiful and sometimes colorful features. Where water continues to seep into the cave, these formations are still taking shape.
Calcite Crystals
Jewel Cave got its name because of many of its rooms and passages are lined with jewel-like crystals, some of which sparkle like brilliant gems when illuminated. This extraordinary and impressive underground spectacle is created by Jewel Cave's most abundant cave formations - the calcite crystals known as dog-tooth spar and nailhead spar.
Remarkable and Rare
Jewel Cave's collection of underground formations includes some that are especially rare and unusual. Helictites are one such oddity. Only a few inches long, they twist and turn in all directions without regard for gravity. Like most cave formations, helictites are made up of calcite, as is popcorn, which grows in small knobby clusters. Delicate, needle-like cave decorations known as frostwork can be composed of calcite or a similar mineral called aragonite. Criss-crossing patterns of calcite veins called boxwork also occur in Jewel Cave, although they are more abundant in nearby Wind Cave. Another mineral - gypsum - fancifully appears in the shape of flowers, needles, spiders, and cottony beards. Scintillites, a type of formation unknown until discovered in Jewel Cave, are composed of the reddish rock called chert and a coating of sparkling clear quartz crystals. Two other particularly intriguing discoveries in Jewel Cave are hydromagnesite balloons - fragile silvery bubbles only a few inches in diameter - and moonmilk, a powdery substance resembling cottage cheese. You may see some of these extraordinary formations on a Jewel Cave tour.
Exploring Jewel Cave
The exploration of Jewel Cave began about 1900 when two South Dakota prospectors, Frank and Albert Michaud, and a friend, Charles Bush, happened to hear wind rushing through a hole in the rocks in Hell Canyon. Enlarging the hole, they found a cave full of sparkling crystals. They filed a mining claim on the "Jewel Lode," but they found no valuable minerals, so they tried turning the cave into a tourist attraction instead. The business was never a success, but the cave did attract attention, and in 1908 Jewel Cave National Monument was established to protect the small but extraordinary beautiful cave. Fifty years later exploration of the cave suddenly intensified. Led by the husband-and-wife team of Herb and Jan Conn, modern-day cavers have discovered new wonders and more than 80 miles of passages. Today the cave is among the world's longest and is renowned for its variety of formations.
Into the Unknown
When Herb and Jan Conn were first persuaded to join a caving expedition in Jewel Cave in 1959, the couple responded without enthusiasm. Their passion was rock climbing, not crawling around in dark, gloomy holes. Little did they know they would spend much of the next 21 years in Jewel Cave, lured by the thrill of discovering the secrets of yet another mile of never before-seen cave. The caving parties led by this husband-and-wife team would make 708 trips into the cave and log 6,000 hours exploring and mapping.
Our exploration of Jewel Cave, which started out as a mild diversion, quickly mushroomed into an all-absorbing interest," the Conns explain in their book The Jewel Cave Adventure. On a typical day, the Conns and their fellow cavers spent 12 to 14 hours underground. Outfitted in hard hats, carbide lamps, gloves, loose fatigues, elbow and knee pads, and boots, the explorers squeezed, crawled, and climbed their way through Jewel Cave's complicated maze. The going was rough. During rest stops they munched on mangled sandwiches and squashed fruit while massaging sore muscles. Names they gave to some passages, such as Contortionist's Delight and The Miseries, tell the story.
As years passed and more miles of cave were found, it became apparent that Jewel Cave was one of the world's most extensive caves, full of scenic and scientific wonders. The explorers found chambers with exquisite calcite crystals and rare cave formations. One much-decorated room discovered by the Conns - the Formation Room - is a highlight of the Scenic Tour today. They also found rooms as large as 150 by 200 feet, passageways as long as 3,200 feet, and a place where the cave wind blows at speeds of up to 32 miles per hour. The cave, they discovered, is truly a rare and precious jewel.
In 1980, after discovering more than 65 miles of cave, the Conns retired. A new generation of cavers has already pushed the known boundaries of the cave to more than 80 miles. But the mystery remains. As the Conns have said, "We are still just standing on the threshold."

ZTE Complains That Congress' Blanket Bans Should Also Cover Western Devices Made in China
Jason Mick
October 9, 2012 11:45 AM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
ZTE claims transparency, yet an FBI investigation revealed it was funneling U.S. parts to iran
In a tersely worded response, ZTE Corp. (
) lashed out at a U.S. House of Representatives'
Intelligence Committee
draft report
[PDF] which
called for a ban
on the Chinese electronics firm's telecommunications equipment and smartphones.
I. ZTE Asks Congress to Target Apple, et al. Too
David Dai Shu, ZTE's director of global public affairs, comments, "It is noteworthy that, after a year-long investigation, the Committee rests its conclusions on a finding that ZTE may not be 'free of state influence.' This finding would apply to any company operating in China. The Committee has not challenged ZTE's fitness to serve the US market based on any pattern of unethical or illegal behavior."
ZTE describes itself as "China's most transparent, independent, globally focused, publicly traded telecom company", arguing it "set an unprecedented standard for cooperation by any Chinese company with a US congressional inquiry."
Mr. Dai Shu adds, "ZTE recognizes and fully respects the Committee's obligation to protect US national security. ZTE believes the Committee focused its examination too narrowly on vendor locations not on equipment security. The Committee omitted the Western vendors and their Chinese manufacturing partners, which provide most of the US equipment now in use. The Committee also overlooked the opportunity to advance universal application of the Trusted Delivery Model which protects critical telecom networks on a vendor-neutral basis."
ZTE points out that the iPhone and other "U.S." devices are also made in China, and, in theory, equally at risk. It says if its products should be banned, so should Apple,
et al.
He argues, "Particularly given the severity of the Committee's recommendations, ZTE recommends that the Committee's investigation be extended to include every company making equipment in China, including the Western vendors. That is the only way to truly protect US equipment and US national security. National security experts agree that a Trusted Delivery Model will strengthen national security. In fact, major US carriers are increasingly requiring Trusted Delivery Model in their contracts."
Indeed, it does seem a bit odd in the grand scheme of things that ZTE and Huawei Technologies Comp. (
) were scrutinized so closely and are facing sales bans, while other companies like Apple, Inc. (
) -- who
contract their device manufacturing to Chinese electronics manufacturers
-- received no scrutiny.
ZTE does make a compelling argument. If the panel is arguing that large Chinese manufacturers can be coerced by the Chinese government to including hidden spying features in their products, why couldn't Foxconn -- Hon Hai Precision Industry Co Ltd.'s (
) massive Chinese manufacturing subsidiary -- put the same kind of spying features inside iPhones or other U.S.-designed smartphones.
II. ZTE's Iran Secrets
However, ZTE may not be quite as transparent as it says. The company is in a difficult spot as it insists on doing business both with the U.S. and Iran. But U.S. trade laws tightly regulate what U.S. made products can be sent to nations viewed as hostile -- and that includes Iran.
U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigations
is currently
conducting a criminal probe
into whether ZTE sold U.S.-made Cisco Systems, Inc. (
) telecommunications equipment to Iran.
that a July 2011 ZTE parts list clearly lists several Cisco switches as being transferred to Telecommunication Co of Iran (TCI) -- a criminal violation of U.S. trade laws.
The probe is still shaking down, and it may lead to charges for some of ZTE's U.S. employees. In the wake of the Iran incident, Cisco cut ties with ZTE.
ZTE is accused of funneling electronics to Iran. [Image Source: Reuters]
The Iran controversy adds a tricky wrinkle to the ZTE debate. ZTE certainly does seem to have behaved less-than-honestly, according to reports, trying to obfuscate the fact that it was funneling (intentionally or unintentionally) small quantities of U.S. telecommunications components to Iran.
On the one hand, the Iran controversy and the question of Chinese spying are two separate issues. On the other hand, the Iran controversy could be indicative of general opportunism and dishonesty at ZTE, which could lead to the kind of spying Congress is concerned about. As former U.S. President George W. Bush
, "There's an old saying in Tennessee — I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again."
ZTE on BusinessWire
"Then they pop up and say 'Hello, surprise! Give us your money or we will shut you down!' Screw them. Seriously, screw them. You can quote me on that." -- Newegg Chief Legal Officer Lee Cheng referencing patent trolls

I can't have my ESB fett all mint and pristine, that's definately not a fett. I've heard some used ink to dye their suits,etc, but would love some input from you guys!
I can't have my ESB fett all mint and pristine, that's definately not a fett. I've heard some used ink to dye their suits,etc, but would love some input from you guys!
Hmm, well I used an airbrush with fabric paints from Createx.
Rust and Flat Black used Burnt Charcoal for the vest.
I also use an airbrush with sandy colours, browns etc. I always use waterbased acrylic paints, they stick to fabric very well and are waterproof when dry (they dry almost instantly).
For my vest I took grey and black paterna paints and filled the sink with water and paint the just dunked the vest till I liked it. It gave it all over color while still being a little random.
Cool thanks for the info guys.
I used dye to give Boba that "I waded through a swamp" look that most eveyone never does and neglects this detail to their suits.
I also used black, grey, and red brown paints misted all over to give it a dirty look.
The spats are the same color and material as the jumpsuit to give an idea on how much I weatherd it.
Big hint and tip and the most often thing people don't do enough...
If you can't see the weathering in photos, it is not done enough.
I don't know how many times I have seen people say on this board and others "It looks really more weatherd in person then it does in the pics."
If you can say that, then you havn't weatherd it enough and need to weather it some more.
This suit is nastly filthy.
Actually, I just got my weathered BobaMaker soft goods yesterday (he does incedible work BTW) which he weathered with brown paints as mentioned above. I wanted a slightly different, darker look, along with the "waded in a swamp look", so I misted flat black spray paint here and there on top of what he did.
The weathering doesn't show up as well in the pix, but this is what it ended up looking like (forgive the pose -- this is very much a work in progress):
I'm 99.9% satisfied. I might hit the bottoms with a little more paint later on.
What Lynn did with the dye just rocks though.

Good hotel with excellent location. The main street is just 50 meters from the lobby, yet the rooms are quiet. No traffic noise, just some music from the beach disco located 200 metres away. Pool area is a bit small, but the beach is wonderful. The restaurant serves excellent food for lunch and dinner, and the breakfast is nice with lots of choices. The staff is always smiling and very helpful. This hotel is recommended.

A great resort in the heart of Chaweng and right on the beach. Hotel staff terrific and always happy to help. Room service outstanding, very clean and well kept. Second time we have stayed here and will be back again. This was the quiet season and never heard any beach party music. Restaurant and bar more expensive than surrounding businesses which is a shame was the only negative. I would have been more prepared to pay reasonable prices here more often if more competative and the resort is lossing out on custom. Still a great location for the white sand holiday.
Reservation service:
As always, perfect and flawless.
