When nine hundred years old you reach, look as good from behind, you will not, hmmm?
Awesome skills on a cool idea, Spirit.
Finally a shirt with the design on the back. I hate the color but in for one simply for that.
I feel like this is a pocket protector, and Yoda should be sitting inside. Great design, knew it would print when I saw it.
Weird Al needs one for his next concert.
Buy or do not buy. There is no try to buy.
I was Jedi in training for a half marathon costume run less than a week ago. This would have been much easier on my shoulders than animatronic Yoda in my camelbak.
Those Jedi scout badges. Hah. Let's see, that's hand stand balance, vine climbing, rock stacking, dark side exploring, and fetal positioning? Maybe it's floating. I'm trying to recall what Jedi trick required that position. Oh I know, fitting in Yoda's hut.
Might have looked a little better with Yoda's head tilted to the side a little, so it doesn't look like he's suffocating in the wearer's back.
Print on TWO sides of this shirt, Woot, you should. A motivational message of sorts for when one's force is not strong with them.
When are you coming to my house to print the message on the front of the shirt? I'll just wear it the way it is for now. You ARE coming over, aren't you?
Funny "Degobak" pun & detailed training buttons. A unique shirt indeed.
I can't quite make out some of the little icons (buttons on the pack).
There's the one where Luke is doing a one-armed handstand, the one where he is levitating and stacking rocks on top of another and the one where he confronts himself in the Dark Side cave. Can anyone explain the others?
*golf clap*
Well done Woot, well done.
This is simply the most amazing shirt design in the history of forever, brava! I only ever buy random shirts (and I always love them), but I am breaking that tradition for this shirt.
Oh wow. People kept telling me this would print but I didn't believe 'em. Thanks for all the support on this design!
These are the Jedi merit badges:
The bottom one is for force somersaulting. Very handy in the next movie.
Are you people kidding, are you high? This is the dumbest thing I've seen in a week...seriously all you D&D'ers need to come back down to reality.
Love this!! I promised myself I wouldn't Woot! for a while, though I torture myself by looking every day. But alas, I can't NOT (Yay double negative) have Yoda on my back!

You know, if you're going to criticize something, be intelligent about it. You offer no actual critique other than that you don't like it and, oh, by the way, nerds all love Star Wars and D&D and are getting high. Har har.
Everybody has their interests. There's no call to denigrate others' just because they're not in synch with yours.

But the color is true to the movie!
Now, can anybody please explain the "(expletive deleted)bak" pun to me?
rightgeek wrote:Now, can anybody please explain the "Dägobak" pun to me?
It's a parody of the Camelbak backpack logo and Yoda's swamp home planet.
Congrats! Awesome work!
And this explains why you still have no "quality" posts.
To all that reply to the above,
I like this shirt and I especially like the merit badges. They could make a good shirt on their own.
I think perhaps you just don't understand the reference, this has nothing to do with D&D.
This references the Empire Strikes Back Yoda training Luke montage:
I think it's quite clever! Good work artist!
pitamuffin wrote:And this explains why you still have no "quality" posts.
And no real friends !
First "baby picture" of my 1st date.
I couldn't care less about Star Wars but I love this shirt and the design is on the back where most art work should be.
+1 for the design on the back,wish it was always an option.
maybe I should buy two and cut the sleeves off one of them.
best. workout shirt. ever.

I had no doubts that this shirt would be printed, and I was going to buy it from the start.

Child Sponsorship Program
The children in our sponsorship program are orphaned, abandoned, or come from extremely poor families who are eager to escape from the poverty that has trapped their family for generations. The GOD'S CHILD Project's philosophy is that through education, housing, and healthcare, together we can "break the bitter chains of poverty."
Currently, there are over 500 children being sponsored by almost 1,000 padrinos, or godparents. Children exchange letters, cards and photos regularly with their sponsors. Sponsors also have the opportunity to visit their sponsored child and meet them in person.
Sponsored children receive money for education costs, clothes, shoes, food and medical care every month. We pay school fees for these boys and girls, and buy their school uniforms, books and supplies. These children and their families need to take their studies seriously, and we ask that children maintain a B average. We also teach parents the value of education so the whole family takes the child's studies seriously.
In addition, we provide children and their families with other essentials such as food, medical and dental care, crisis intervention counseling, clothing, and lots of loving structure on which they depend while they battle the dynamics of poverty.
Our direct cost to care for each child is $120 per month for a child who lives with his/her own family, and $160 per month for each child who lives with a program foster family. With the latter, $50 a month goes right to the foster family. We ask you to help sponsor a child with an amount within your budget. Unlike almost all other charities, we do not set a fixed amount to sponsor a child, and many sponsors donate less than this, requiring multiple sponsors for each child in the program. We know that some people can give more, and others less. We appreciate all sponsorships very much.

"Solve pest bird problems without harming birds with Whirlybird Repeller Pro or Breeze"
Do you want to scare away birds? Do you need to keep unwanted birds off your boat, dock, deck, communication tower, or other marine, commercial, or residential area? Are pest birds preventing you from enjoying your boat or dock? At Whirlybird Solutions, we know that unwanted birds cause serious problems world-wide. Disease, expensive property damage, and power outages are just some of the documented catastrophic problems of birds in the wrong places.
WhirlyBird Solutions' commitment to solving these problems responsibly has set us apart since 2007. Our small family business is proud to offer the WhirlyBird Repeller Pro or Breeze, nuisance bird control products that are the safe, extremely effective, humane, and non-toxic way to get rid of birds. The WhirlyBird "Pro" is intended for areas with steady, high velocity winds, such as coastal areas, cell phone towers, or elevated light poles. The WhirlyBird "Breeze" is better suited for areas that are more sheltered, or have intermittent or lighter winds, such as more inland areas, lakes, or backyards.
Your friends and neighbors – and even the United States Coast Guard – have all said one simple thing: WhirlyBird Repellers WORK!
Using wind, sunlight, and a little ingenuity, the WhirlyBird Repeller's constantly changing patterns offer a simple, safe, and effective combination of methods to scare birds away. Shaped like a peregrine falcon, the WhirlyBird Repeller catches prevailing wind, and its motion, sounds, and reflections work to keep pest birds away and change birds' roosting and perching habits. Nuisance birds, such as gulls, grackles, and vultures, do not become acclimated to the deterrent effects of the WhirlyBird Repeller "Pro" or "Breeze", as they do with passive objects, such as plastic owls and snakes.
Use the WhirlyBird Repeller in any windy area where you need to keep birds away:
- Communication Towers
- Electrical Towers
- Cell Phone Towers
- Elevated Light Poles
- Radio & TV Station Antennas
- Vineyards
- Farms and Gardens
- Outdoor Dining Areas
- Parking Lots
- Koi and Fish Ponds
- Signs
Bird waste is hazardous waste! See and learn how the WhirlyBird Repeller operates and scares your pest birds away:
- Spins, Wobbles and Vibrates
- Reflects Light like a disco ball

Hassan Wirayuda, Foreign Minister of Indonesia urged the military junta controlling Myanmar to avoid resorting to violence means in handling peaceful demonstrations which have filled the streets of their nation with thousands of marching monks. He said: "Indonesia urges Myanmar not to resort to coercive measures in handling peaceful rallies." The foreign minister expressed doubt criticism from abroad would have any effect on Burmese military leaders who have lived for years under sanctions. The latest reports indicate soldiers are firing in the air, and, in some cases, at demonstrators. There are also video shots of soldiers charging into monk demonstrators and beating up monks.
Myanmar is one of those situations in which the outside world can only stand on the outside observing corrupt violent leaders impose their will upon a resisting nation. Outside of armed intervention, nothing will change their attitudes.

Whether restoring, remodeling, or completely rebuilding, the prospect of making any changes to a house designed by a respected architect can be daunting. This collection of updated projects includes originals by Rudolph Schindler, Frank Lloyd Wright, Richard Neutra, Charles H. Richter, Felder Weeks, Aaron Green, and Eliot Noyes. Definitely a tough acts to follow.
The architects who painstakingly brought these houses back to life not only took into consideration existing architecture, but also the intentions of the initial designers. This meant research on other works by those master architects, design trends of the time, plus finding appropriate finishes and products to fit the style. Across the board, the biggest challenge was changing floor plans for clients' contemporary lifestyles without altering the spirit of the house. Restraint is the word for that part of the process. Many of the updates required knocking down interior walls and replacing or expanding glazing to strengthen outdoor connections and open living areas. Several of the houses had undergone less sensitive remodels or additions, so getting back to the original architect's layout figured highly into the new design. When renovating an Aaron Green house for his twin brother, Paul Mankins, FAIA, explains that "a lot of the solution was mainly getting rid of the bad stuff."
Replacing outdated systems and crumbling structural components without destroying too much of the architecture was also a big hurdle. Steven Ehrlich, FAIA, viewed it as an opportunity to make the Schindler house he restored as green as possible. He did such a good job that his daughter and her family now own the house, so Ehrlich continues to enjoy his meticulous hard work. Another benefit for all of the architects who successfully revised these masterworks—they all received a Residential Architect or Custom Home Design Award for their efforts.

PFW's collection of late-week fantasy QB tips say Aaron Rodgers has his best matchup of the year, Christian Ponder could be a sleeper and owners of Michael Vick and Robert Griffin III should make sure they have solid backup options in the event of an injury.
QB Matt Schaub did it all for the Texans in Week Three, tying a career high with four TDs and continuously scraping himself up off the turf after taking a beating from the Broncos. In fact, Schaub had part of his ear removed on an illegal helmet-to-helmet blow from Broncos LB Joe Mays — the savage hit earned Mays a $50,000 fine and a one-week ban — but Schaub returned after just one play and was a full participant in Houston's Wednesday practice. He is a strong play in Week Four, against a Titans pass defense that has surrendered 312.7 passing yards per week and eight TDs through the air to begin the season.
Is it actually possible Aaron Rodgers has become a merely average fantasy QB? We'll get an answer to that question this Sunday when the Packers' MVP QB goes up against an absolutely wretched Saints defense that has been shredded for a whopping 1,432 yards in the first three games. It's worth noting that Rodgers has gone up against three pretty strong defenses the first three games (Niners, Bears and Seahawks) that did a great job keeping everything underneath and taking away the kind of big plays Rodgers specialized in during his astounding 2011 campaign. If A-Rod continues to sputter against a Saints defense that has been even worse than the Packers' defense was last year, his fantasy owners might have to really start questioning his merits.
Want a sleeper play this week? How about Vikings QB Christian Ponder? He has been a 70-percent passer this season, can make plays with his feet (rushing TD Sunday vs. the 49ers) and gets WR Jerome Simpson, a badly needed deep threat, back from suspension. Ponder struggled in December against these Lions in Detroit, but he was still hindered by a hip injury. This "D" is 27th in points allowed and gave up two long pass plays to the Titans and Jake Locker last week. With two good fantasy QBs, Ben Roethlisberger and Andrew Luck, on bye and a few others (Cam Newton, Tony Romo, Jay Cutler, Sam Bradford among them) with tough matchups, Ponder might not be a bad play.
Eagles QB Michael Vick is Andy Reid's guy for now, and he spent all week trying to diffuse talk that the situation is tenuous. "He's my quarterback. Period," Reid said. But with nine turnovers in three games, Vick's status remains in question. There's no doubt he could have a big game against the Giants, as he did versus the Ravens. But if you own Vick, keep him on a somewhat short leash yourself and figure out if your alternative plans are solid enough in case a change is made down the line. It might be because of ineffectiveness or injury, based on how much of a beating Vick is taking.
There is worry about the health of Redskins QB Robert Griffin III given all the hits he has taken, and further worry comes in the health concerns about OLT Trent Williams, who might not go Sunday against the Bucs. His replacement, Jordan Black, surrendered several pressures, QB hits and sacks last week. But the man lining up opposite the left tackle, Buccaneers DE Adrian Claiborne (their best rusher) just went on I.R. Freely start Griffin against the Bucs, who have given up more plays of 20-plus yards (17) than even the Redskins (16), whose defense has struggled badly. Resist the urge to sit Griffin this week.
Bengals QB Andy Dalton merits starting consideration from fantasy owners this week, especially those in bigger leagues. The Jaguars are allowing 258.0 passing yards per game. Moreover, they have only recorded two sacks all season — good news for Cincinnati, considering its pass-protection issues.
Lions QB Matthew Stafford (hip) practiced Thursday, and if he can play on Sunday vs. Minnesota, he's surely one of the better fantasy options available. The TD passes figure to pick up at some point for Stafford, who has only three in 122 attempts. The Lions' passing game has too much talent for Stafford to be on a 16-TD rate over a full campaign.
Bills QB Ryan Fitzpatrick has rebounded from his disastrous opener and has eight total passing touchdowns on the season. He hasn't thrown a pick since Week One and he completed 62.9 percent of his passes in Week Three. The Patriots' defense will do its best to force him into turnovers, but it still appears to be a unit that will give up passing yards. In two meetings last season, Fitzpatrick threw four touchdowns, but also six picks against the Patriots.
Chargers QB Philip Rivers had a miserable game against the Falcons last week, who picked him off two times. This week, he gets a Chiefs team that has intercepted him more than any team in his career — 14 times in 13 career games, five more picks than any other opponent.
Bucs QB Josh Freeman was held to only 10 completions and 110 yards passing vs. the Cowboys in Week Three, but we expect him to bounce back vs. the Redskins on Sunday. He's certainly worth a start in two-QB formats, and owners in very deep leagues that start only one quarterback might even consider playing Freeman. Washington is ranked 31st vs. the pass (Drew Brees, Sam Bradford and Andy Dalton have all thrown for 300-plus yards vs. the Redskins this season). Washington has allowed a league-high 10 touchdown passes, and Freeman should be in for a solid day at Raymond James Stadium.
Ravens QB Joe Flacco is on pace for 4,869 passing yards through three games, and he has a favorable matchup in Week Four vs. Cleveland. The Browns are 27th vs. the pass. Flacco's a fine starting option this week, and his value continues to rise.

Since your profile says "web services", i'm assuming that you have basic knowledge of html and javascript.In your page, put jquery, create a div to be the container and put your panorama image inside it, like this:

then you can use this javascript to obtain the effect you want.

I hope this helps you (at least to get started). I'm sorry i didn't explain my answer better, but something came up here and i have to go.
Good luck.
Wow thanks maguiar01! That works most excellently!

When you right-click the image, you'll notice it is in fact Flash You can find a few similar items on ActiveDen by searching for pan.
but he wanted it in JS
shouldn't this be in TF?
I have another question…I would like to place 2 images in the container, then float them left so they are stacked on top of each other. I would like the top image to fade out slowly, then after a while, fade back in. I used the code above, but I changed this line so that "pano_img" was a class instead of an ID:
panoImg = $(".pano_img")
Then I assigned the class to each image.
I doubled the container height to make sure they were moving in tandem. They were, so that's all good.
But I want the top image to fade out, then fade back in. I gave it an ID of "first_photo" and used jquery to select it thusly:
..but it doesn't seem to do anything.
What am I doing wrong?

I must've miss-read his post and assumed he wanted the same thing as on the demo My bad.
Can't say for sure without looking exactly at the code, but i guess that the problem is caused by the line
this line stops all animations on the element, including the fadeout/fadein effect.
There are also a few parallax plugins for jquery, they can do this effect too I guess

Pneumonia shot recommended for some groups
While health officials have been strongly recommending the flu shot for anyone over six months old, there's another shot recommended for some patients that sometimes goes overlooked.
This year's flu shot protects about 70 percent of patients who get it, so the odds are still on your side to get the flu shot.
The flu comes on quickly. The rapid onset is marked by a high fever, aches and a runny nose with coughing.
For his patients, Dr. Steve Samuels prescribes Tamiflu in the first 24 hours to ward off or diminish the full onset. He also recommends Mucinex DM in the morning, Tylenol three times a day and Nyquil at night for as long as symptoms last.
Considering your health status, you might want to consider a pneumonia shot.
"Guidelines for the flu vaccine are essentially anyone over the age of six months and so everybody ought to get a flu shot. The pneumonia guidelines are a little different. If you are over the age of 65, we strongly recommend the pneumonia vaccine. Or if you have any chronic underlying illness, if you are a smoker, if you have COPD, if you have diabetes or any kind of immunologic deficiency, you should also get the pneumonia vaccine at least two shots in your life, five years apart," he said.
"If you have had your spleen out, you get them every two years for the rest of your life," said Dr. Samuels, speaking of the pneumonia vaccine.
"So we do recommend the pneumonia vaccine in the appropriate patient population. That is a big worry with flu. Flu can lead on to super infection with pneumonia, and that is when people get really sick and die from flu. It's not the flu itself. It's the secondary infections that occur," he said.
If you have symptoms, know that you are contagious. Don't put others at risk.
"This year is a very contagious flu. The reports have been it can survive eight hours outside your body on table surfaces. So that is a little longer than most flu viruses year to year. We are seeing a higher infectivity this year," he said.
Whether you're at the gym, at your child's day care or at the office, wipe down equipment, keyboards and phones - including cell phones; wash your hands and keep your hands off your face.
Flu shot clinic info
The Visiting Nurse Service at St. Francis will offer two flu shot clinics this week.
The clinics will be held on Wednesday and Thursday (Jan. 16-17) from 3-7 p.m. at the Visiting Nurse Service at St. Francis Central Office at 4701 N. Keystone Avenue.
The clinics will offer vaccinations to children six months of age and older. There will be a limited supply of Thimerosal Free vaccine available.
Flu shots will cost $35, a half-dose flu shot (for children 6-35 months old) will cost $30. The Thimerosal Free vaccine will cost $40 and pneumonia vaccinations will cost $70.
The Visiting Nurse Service at St. Francis accepts cash, check, certain Medicare plans and Anthem Blue Cross & Blue Shield. No appointment or prescription is necessary for the clinics.

Thank you for your question, and thanks for using JustAnswer.com
How are you today?
Good. How are you?
If he's going from his second home back to his office, or place of business, that is a commute and no expense will be deducted.
Here's a good discussion about the difference between commuting and travel: CLICK HERE
The only time it's travel is if you are going to a temporary work place that is outside your tax home
He doesn't view it as commuting. I'm trying to convince him that it is. He thinks since he is doing business in both locations he should get the deduction.
For example, if a meeting was held at a convention center by the second home, the drive from the primary residence to the second home would be deductible if he was going there for a business purpose.
No, you only get the deduction if you are doing work at a temporary workplace away from your tax home.
That is what I've tried to tell him. I will use what you sent to show him.
I know it's sort of a grey area, but you don't want to take commuting miles when they aren't deductible.
He has also said his second home is an investment and he is going to check on it. Same answer...commuting?
I agree!
Yes. That is commuting. It's his second home.
Good argument, but it wouldn't fly with the IRS
The investment has to be generating you income in order for you to even start deducting expenses.
So, if it was a rental property he would have rental income and could deduct the mileage.
Okay. So he won't get a business deduction for excess mileage when he drives to his second home so he has a car to use for business meetings at his second home, correct?
That is correct
Perfect. How do I treat it if he wants the company to pay these costs? Are these distributions to a partner?
They would be non deductible expenses. You would have a book-tax difference
You could treat as an owner draw
We don't have draws; instead we have distributions.
But if they are non deductible expenses, he's essentially creating income for himself...which I don't know why he would be doing that
Or would we issue him a 1099?
Great question! He thinks he gets the deduction.
He does not get a deduction.
You would send him a 1099, yes
Okay. Am I able to get a copy of this transcript to show him?
You can print it using the browser's print function
Excellent! Thank you very much. I appreciate your help!
You're welcome. Before you leave, please rate my response as "excellent" so that I may receive credit for assisting you today
I will. Thanks again!

The problem: You want to send images into space and you want them to last 5 billion years. The solution: A gold-plated disc.
That's the idea behind The Last Pictures project, which is scheduled to blast off in the next few months.
[ FREE DOWNLOAD: 6 things every IT person should know ]
The project involves attaching a silicon disc encased in gold to the outside of a communications satellite. The disc will include just 100 etched photos, which are meant to be a cultural artifact for aliens to find if mankind is no longer here when they come knocking.
The disc, designed by researchers at MIT and Carleton College, is filled with images chosen by artist Trevor Paglen and a team he put together, who are working with the nonprofit arts organization Creative Time and the media and satellite company EchoStar.
The golden artifact is hitching a ride on the EchoStar XVI satellite, which once in orbit will be fully leased to DISH Direct-to-Home services in the United States. After several technical problems, the satellite is now scheduled to blast off in the November-December timeframe from the Baikonur Cosmodrome, the world's first and largest space launch facility located in Kazakhstan.
Since the conclusion of the U.S. Space Shuttle program, Baikonur has become the sole launch facility for manned missions to the International Space Station.
The gold-encased silicon disc that holds the etched images (Source: Creative Time).
The black and white pictures that Paglen chose were also recently published in a book. They include photos of a meteorite, a dust storm hitting an American Midwest neighborhood, a ship traversing a canal and cherry blossoms.
Looking at the photographs, a theme is somewhat inscrutable -- an observation that Paglen himself admits. For example, a photo of a group of people taken by a predator drone joins several photos of 17,000-year-old cave paintings.
One of the more impalpable photos is of "financial crop circles," or trading activity patterns created by automated high-speed computer algorithms. One photo shows Native American petroglyphs from Canyon de Chelly in Arizona.
The photo of high-speed trading algorithm patterns also known as "financial crop circles" (Source: Trevor Paglen)
"What it depicts is Spanish raiders arriving in the Navajo territory. So really, it's an image of an alien invasion," he said. "So that was a powerful image for us in thinking about the history of empire and war and how the West and in fact much of the world [and civilization was developed]."
While at first blush the photos can seem to have been chosen at random, Paglen carefully picked the zeitgeist over a period of five years. The process included a group of artists from Creative Times, which commissioned the project.
The six artists spent eight months collecting images, everything from medieval alchemical texts to the history of cameras and messages in bottles to cybernetics (the study of mechanical, physical, biological, and cognitive systems).
Paglen also performed extensive interviews with other artists, philosophers, and scientists, who included biologists, physicists, and astronomers. To each, he posed a single question: What photos would you choose to send into outer space?
The scientists from MIT also offered the artist a fresh philosophical perspective with regard to understanding what the images may mean to aliens a billion years from now.
"Cave paintings became the obvious reference," Paglen said. "They tell us about the prehistoric environments of the ecology and perhaps even of the lifestyles of long ago that we know very little about."
Petroglyphs photo (Source: Creative Time)
19,000 miles above Earth
Once launched, EchoStar XVI will function for about 15 years and then go dead, orbiting 19,000 miles above Earth for five billion years. Why five billion? That's when scientists estimate the Sun will run out of hydrogen, become a red giant and expand, consuming the planets around it.
Until then, if humans do follow the dinosaurs and become extinct, there will be plenty of evidence of our existence left behind. Over the past 50 years, more than 800 spacecraft have been launched into geosynchronous orbit.
After a relatively short life, hundreds have become nothing more than floating junk. The debris have formed a ring of technology -- artifacts in there own right -- around Earth.
"These satellites are destined to become one of the longest-lasting artifacts of human civilization, quietly floating through space long after every trace of humanity has disappeared from the planet," Creative Time states in its online introduction to the project.

The head of Quebec's anti-corruption unit has rejected calls for a public inquiry into corruption and collusion in the province's construction industry, shoring up Premier Jean Charest's opposition to such a probe.
Robert Lafrenière said a public inquiry would harm ongoing police work because it could alert potential suspects to the fact that they are being investigated and jeopardize evidence that might be needed for a criminal case.
"People assigned to appear before a commission either to testify publicly or behind closed doors would know that they are being targeted. That would change their behaviour. They would become more suspicious and perhaps even destroy evidence," Mr. Lafrenière said, raising the possibility that subsequent prosecutions could fail to convict the people responsible for bid-rigging, influence peddling and protection rackets.
Mr. Lafrenière predicted that there will soon be arrests and that the long-promised crackdown is forthcoming. He urged the public to be patient as his unit collects evidence.
"Our teams are at work and I am confident that soon I will be in a position to publicly announce new results. We know that is what you want. But keep in mind that in our field of work, time is a factor in achieving concrete and probing results," he said during a news conference in Montreal in which he gave a progress report on the work done by the anti-corruption unit.
At the same time, signs of dissent were appearing in the Liberal ranks on the issue. Mr. Charest's main speech writer, Patrice Servant, resigned on Monday, saying he could no longer defend the government's refusal to hold a public inquiry.
"I am not at ease in relaying the government's position, which is not in the citizens' best interest," Mr. Servant told Radio-Canada.
Mr. Charest created the Permanent Anti-corruption Unit last February in response to demands for a full public inquiry and appointed Mr. Lafrenière, a former director of the Sûreté du Québec, to lead it.
Last week, the director of the Quebec Transport Ministry's anti-collusion unit, Jacques Duchesneau, said there is a lack of political will to curtail the power that a group of engineering firms has over construction projects and the intimidation tactics used in the industry to discourage competition. He called for a full public inquiry, saying that police work was ineffective in impeding the elaborate systems of collusion put in place by sophisticated criminals.
Mr. Duchesneau's unit, created 18 months ago, is now part of the permanent anti-corruption squad.
Mr. Duchesneau said in a media interview that a judge, rather than Mr. Lafrenière, should be at the head of the anti-corruption unit.
Mr. Lafrenière said he could not accept that a fellow police investigator working for his unit would publicly criticize his work. Mr. Duchesneau's future may hinge on the outcome of a meeting with Mr. Lafrenière in the coming days.
Mr. Charest, who is on a 10-day mission to France and Spain, also faces a petition posted on the National Assembly website on Monday sponsored by Quebec Solidaire MNA Amir Khadir. The petition, which calls for an inquiry into corruption practices and the funding of political parties, gathered several thousand signatures in only a few hours.Report Typo/Error

New motorcycle shop opens, Bike Nights begin July 2-3
Chopper from Paul Jr. Designs to be on display, raffled
Starting Monday, parts, accessories, repair and good old-fashioned camaraderie for motorcycle owners and enthusiasts will be available at Levi Herroon and Craig Gill's new business, Short Stop Motorcycle Parts and Accessories.
The new shop, in Belding's Covered Mall, officially opens at 9 a.m. on Monday. A grand opening celebration will be held Monday and Tuesday.
Herroon and Gill, founders of Belding's motorcycle club, The Chosen Ones, are also hosting a Bike Night from 6 to 9 p.m., both Monday and Tuesday evenings. Starting July 12, Bike Night will be held each Thursday at the same time.
Raffle tickets will be on sale for a March of Dimes chopper that was custom-made by Paul Jr. Designs, a company made famous by the popular television show "American Choppers." Tickets are $20 each. The drawing will be held in November, according to Gill.
Gill said he is looking forward to serving the local west region and knows there will be plenty of interest in the new business, which caters to motorcycles, all-terrain vehicles and snowmobiles. He said he and Herroon are building the business to be a one-stop-shop.
"We are establishing ourselves as the place to come for apparel and parts," Gill said. "We have parts and accessories for all makes and models.
"I think even with a rough economy, there's still a lot of people into motorcycles, ATVs and snowmobiles," Gill added, "so what we offer is still in high demand."
Repair is another service Short Stop will provide. Jim Stump of Gowen is the repair manager.
Gill and Herroon have been operating Short Stop online for the past three years but, according to Gill, when metric cruiser motorcycle corporations like Honda, Kawaski and Suzuki started requiring physical locations to sell their parts and accessories, the duo decided to "open up shop."
For Herroon, having an actual shop is a natural procession, and, with Bike Night, will give his club and local "choppers" a place to gather and build camaraderie.
"My dad was big into motorcycles so I've always was into them," Herroon said. "There's nothing that beats feeling the air in your face and in your hair with no restrictions."
Both Gill and Herroon own Harley Davison Electra Glide motorcycles, with Gill owing a 2000 model and Herroon a 2005 model.
"Around here, you see a big variety of different bikes," Herroon said. "There are a lot of cruiser bikes, though. They are great for comfort and the ability to ride miles and miles without taking a toll on your backside."
Short Stop Motorcycle Parts & Accessories, at 240 Covered Village Mall, is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, and from 9 a.m. to noon on Saturdays.
For more information, call (616) 794-9540 or go online to www.ssmotorcycleparts.com.

Site: Albany, N.Y. (Alumni Turf Field)
Score: #15 Michigan 2, #21 Albany 1 (OT)
Records: U-M (3-2), Albany (2-2)
Next U-M Match: Saturday, Sept. 8 -- vs. Connecticut (Albany, N.Y.), 2 p.m.
ALBANY, N.Y. -- Freshmen Lauren Thomas (Aylesburg, England/Aylesbury HS) used an overtime penalty-corner opportunity to net her first collegiate goal and propel the No. 15-ranked University of Michigan field hockey team to a 2-1 decision at No. 21 Albany on Friday afternoon (Sept. 7) at the Great Danes' Alumni Turf Field. The victory extended U-M's winning streak to three.
Thomas scored on the direct shot of the Wolverines' first corner of the overtime frame, rocketing a low shot past Great Dane goalkeeper Kristi Troch to end the game at the 76:46 mark. Freshman Shannon Scavelli (Yorktown Heights, N.Y./Lakeland Shrub Oak HS) and junior/sophomore Leslie Smith (Hummelstown, Pa./Hershey HS) earned assists for the stop and the push, respectively.
Thomas is the eighth different Wolverine player to register a goal this season and the fifth to record her first collegiate marker.
Albany forced overtime with a goal in the final minute of regulation play, taking advantage of a scramble following a Great Dane penalty corner. The initial shot was blocked in front of the U-M cage, but the Wolverines could not clear the ball as Daphne Voormolen knocked it in to even the score at 69:21. The goal culminated a second-half surge for Albany, which outshot the Wolverines, 13-7, in the half and recorded three corners and five shots in the final 10 minutes.
Junior Rachael Mack (Bromsgrove, England/Bromsgrove School), Michigan's leading scorer in each of the last two years, notched her first goal of the season to give her team the initial advantage in the first half. Sophomore Emy Guttman (Ann Arbor, Mich./Pioneer HS) accepted a pass from outside the circle and fired a shot on goal; Mack got her stick on the ball to redirect it past Troch at the 21:48 mark.
The Great Danes outshot Michigan, 22-13, in the contest and outcornered U-M, 10-5. Senior/junior goalkeeper Haley Jones (Ann Arbor, Mich./Pioneer HS) boasted a career-best 11 saves, including two overtime stops, in the Wolverine cage, while Albany's Troch earned five saves on Michigan's seven shots on goal.
Michigan (3-2) will wrap up the road trip tomorrow (Saturday, Sept. 8), remaining in Albany, N.Y., to face No. 7-ranked Connecticut at 2 p.m. in a neutral-site game at the Great Danes' Alumni Turf Field.

Please help with wire size for residential service
Hey guys, I have a question about a residential service and the required wire size.
In a 200A service, I will have the meter pan and an outside disconnect, I will use 2/0 copper for the hots and neutral, what size ground do I need?
Coming out of that disconnect I will have a short pipe run into the interior of the house where the main panel is. I could still use 2/0 copper here because it has the load of the entire house, so I don't have the use the normal 3/0 for 200amps. However, I am unsure of what ground size to use in this situation.
Thanks for the help!
#6 cu, and you don't even need to run that if you are running EMT or RMC continuous from the disco to the panel.
Thanks for the answer, #6 it is!
Quick question, why when I looked up copper SE cable was the ground that came with 2/0, 2/0, 2/0 always #1 and not #6? That is what got me confused in the first place.
One more question if you don't mind.
The house is on well water and plumbed with PEX so there is no water pipe ground. There is a ufer ground which has a #4 ran to it and it goes into the meter pan. This same ground will go continuously through the meter pan into the disconnect. Is that correct?
Second, will the fact that this ground is a #4 effect the ground that I take from the disconnect into the panel?
Thanks again!

Purpose and Scope
This division of administrative rules addresses the existence of enterprise zones in addition to OAR 123-650, as provided under:
(1) ORS 285C.300 to 285C.320 respective to Oregon-based Tribes; and
(2) ORS 285C.085 based on special federal designations.
Stat. Auth.: ORS 285A.075 & 285C.060(1)
Stats. Implemented: ORS 285C.085 & 285C.300 - 285C.320
Hist.: OBDD 24-2010, f. & cert. ef. 6-14-10; OBDD 14-2015, f. & cert. ef. 11-12-15
OAR 123-001 (Procedural Rules) and 123-650 define terms used in this division of administrative rules. In addition:
(1) As used in ORS 285C.085(4)(b), "all areas within both the federal enterprise zone and the city, county or port are included in a state enterprise zone" means that the state enterprise zone will need to encompass all of the Federal Enterprise Zone inside the territory of any city, port or county that will sponsor the zone. This is true regardless that such territory is also inside an overlapping city, port or county that neither sponsors nor consents to the zone, in that not every city, port or county needs to sponsor or consent as required under ORS 285C.065, 285C.066 or 285C.068, but other jurisdictions may consent to include parts of the Federal Enterprise Zone that are outside sponsor territory in the state enterprise zone consistent with OAR 123-650-0500.
(2) As used in these administrative rules, unless the context dictates otherwise:
(a) Federal Enterprise Zone is a designation by an agency of the U.S. government that is:
(A) Not terminated;
(B) Located at least partially in this state;
(C) Delimited by formal boundaries and an established period of existence lasting five or more years;
(D) Intended at least in part to create or improve economic opportunities and development within the local community;
(E) Provided for by federal law that includes congressionally authorized benefits for purposes of paragraph (D) of this subsection;
(F) Qualified based on federal guidelines, including but not limited to criteria for a level of economic hardship generally comparable to that indicated under ORS 285C.090;
(G) Subject to a significant degree of national selectivity and uniqueness, in relation to paragraph (F) of this subsection, such that having more than five of any designation type awarded to this state at any one time would be unlikely; and
(H) For example, comparable historically to federal Renewal Communities, Empowerment Zones or Enterprise Communities (but not a Recovery Zone, which many municipalities might easily self-designate).
(b) RENZ means a reservation enterprise zone under ORS 285C.306(2).
(c) RPRZ means a reservation partnership zone under ORS 285C.306(3).
(d) Tribe means one of the federally recognized Indian tribes in Oregon listed under ORS 285C.306(1).

Tribal Zones
Applicability of Regular Parameters
For purposes of RENZs and RPRZs:
(1) Their creation does not depend on any measure of local economic hardship or on consultation with local taxing districts.
(2) They do not need to satisfy the following requirements in OAR 123-650, except pursuant to a boundary change under ORS 285C.115(3), including but not limited to:
(a) Maximum distances overall or between an RENZ's separate areas; or
(b) General co-sponsorship or consent by applicable city, port or county governments as described in OAR 123-650-0500.
(3) Each may have total area within its boundary of up to but not more than 12 square miles, for which:
(a) An RENZ shall conform to OAR 123-650-1000(3), but it may include separate, noncontiguous areas anywhere in this state.
(b) The cosponsors of an RPRZ shall determine how to define, map and describe the zone's area, which however, must be contiguous.
(4) Either may designate itself for electronic commerce status under ORS 285C.095 (see OAR 123-662).
(5) The zone sponsor shall fulfill the duties incumbent on it under ORS 285C.105 or elsewhere in ORS chapter 285C, including but not limited to those addressed in OAR 123-668.
(6) They are invariably 'rural' enterprise zones:
(a) Even if entirely or partially inside a regional or metropolitan urban growth boundary, notwithstanding OAR 123-650-0700.
(b) For purposes of the standard exemption under ORS 285C.175 (see OAR 123-674) and long-term tax incentives under ORS 285C.409 and 317.124 (see OAR 123-690), regardless of where any part of the zone exists, but:
(A) The facility must nevertheless be in an applicable county for the long-term tax incentives; and
(B) Neither an RENZ (designated after 2003) nor an RPRZ sponsor may elect or allow a hotel, motel or destination resort business to be eligible for the standard exemption.
(7) They are not subject to premature termination by order of the Director under ORS 285C.245(3) to (5) or to programmatic sunset under ORS 285C.255.

Reservation Partnership Zone Co-sponsorships
For purposes of RPRZs, consistent with OAR 123-656-1000 and pursuant to a co-sponsorship agreement:
(1) The zone's effective beginning, equivalent to designation, is the execution of the agreement or a specified, later date in the agreement.
(2) The agreement shall be between a single Tribe and at least one or more cities, ports or counties, but it may include only one or two such local governments, in terms of their jurisdictional territory inside the RPRZ, regardless of provisions for joint sponsorship or consent by any other such government under ORS 285C.065, 285C.066 or 285C.068.
(3) The RPRZ shall consist of contiguous area inside the jurisdictional territory of its city, port or county cosponsor(s), and such area may also be (but does not need to be) land of the Tribe under ORS 285C.306(2)(b)(A) or (C) or both.
(4) The Tribe and any cosponsoring city, port and county are the "zone sponsor" of the RPRZ, and their agreement shall contain appropriate and necessary provisions under ORS 190.110, regarding their mutual and respective roles and responsibility as the zone sponsor including but not limited to provisions under ORS 285C.105. Any other party to the agreement as allowed under ORS 190.110 would not be part of the zone sponsor.
(5) The zone sponsor of the RPRZ is urged in the process of executing the co-sponsorship agreement to:
(a) Consult with other cities, ports or counties that have territory in the zone;
(b) Communicate with other local taxing districts that have territory in the zone; and
(c) Formally apprize the Department of its existence, area and sponsorship.
(6) With respect to altering the RPRZ, the zone sponsor may mutually amend the agreement to add or remove contiguous land as described in section (3) of this rule at any time without triggering provisions under ORS 285C.115(3) consistent with OAR 123-662-1000(2).
(7) With respect to RPRZ termination:
(a) The agreement shall recognize that the zone does terminate by operation of law (is Terminated-by-Statute) under ORS 285C.245(6) after June 30 immediately following 10 years since the effective date of its beginning, and the term of the agreement shall be for at least that long.
(b) It may occur sooner due to the effective dissolution of the agreement by mutual consent of its parties. In the event of such dissolution, any business firm shall enjoy the same protection under relevant provisions of law and this chapter of administrative rules for location in a terminated enterprise zone.
(c) The Tribe and city, port or county may create a new RPRZ pursuant to or in replacement of a terminated one, based on a newly executed co-sponsorship agreement consistent with this rule.
(8) There is no particular limit on the number of RPRZs that may exist statewide, or that any city, port, county or Tribe may cosponsor. A city, port or county cosponsor of an RPRZ may also sponsor another enterprise zone, and as originally cosponsored, an RPRZ may contain area of an existing regular enterprise zone (other than an RENZ or another RPRZ), which shall remove or exclude the RPRZ area with the earlier of its next boundary change or re-designation.

Tribal Credit against State Income Taxes
For purposes of the credit under ORS 285C.309 to offset state personal or corporate income/excise tax liabilities based on tribal taxes incurred or paid to the Tribe for an applicable business facility in any RENZ or RPRZ:
(1) It is available to a business engaged in any type of income-furthering activity, other than leasing the facility itself, irrespective of receipt or qualification for any other enterprise-zone tax abatement by the business or the facility.
(2) The business must have acquired the facility (by purchase or lease) or completed its construction, erection or installation, only since January 1, 2002. In addition, for a previously existing facility:
(a) If located on the Tribe's reservation, the business operations need to be significantly different from and not in any way the continuation of what was undertaken at the facility before its latest acquisition; and
(b) The facility, for purposes of applicable tribal property taxes, comprises new investments (completed and placed in service since January 1, 2002) only to the extent that they have enlarged or extended the ability of the business to generate revenue at the facility, as opposed to existing property or the replacement of existing property.
(3) The credit equals:
(a) The total amount of tribal taxes under ORS 285C.300 incurred or paid by the business in or respective to the first income/excise tax year, in which it operates in the RENZ or RPRZ; or
(b) For any other tax year, only the annual property taxes imposed by the Tribe on facility property consistent with section (2) of this rule.
(4) An applicable tribal property tax for purposes of section (3) of this rule shall be:
(a) Levied in an area encompassing an entire district, in which multiple businesses might generally develop and operate, and throughout which the Tribe has authority to impose and collect such a tax on non-Indian businesses, regardless of the area's general correspondence to or coverage by the RENZ or RPRZ;
(b) Computed based on a rate or schedule of rates multiplied by the valuation of certain types of tangible property in the area of taxation, even if the methods, definitions and so forth differ from ad valorem taxation under state law; and
(c) Uniformly assessed and imposed on any non-Indian business, as well as Indian enterprises if they too are subject to the same tax and not exempt in any way due to location in the RENZ or RPRZ.
(5) To claim the tax credit, the business/taxpayer shall fill out the latest revision of the Department of Revenue form 150-102-046, Reservation Enterprise Zone Tax Credit Worksheet, but not submit it with the tax return, for each applicable income/excise tax year beginning before the date prescribed under section 21, chapter 913, Oregon Laws 2009, as amended in 2010 (c.76 §28) or in the future.

Federal Enterprise Zones
Designation Based on Federal Zone
For purposes of applying for and designating an enterprise zone under ORS 285C.085(2):
(1) City, port or county governments may seek designation of a zone corresponding to the boundary of a single Federal Enterprise Zone located in the government's territory:
(a) Submission may be made to the Department at any time without regard to an application form;
(b) Besides a map and so forth of the proposed enterprise zone consistent with OAR 123-650-1500, the submission must document the Federal Enterprise Zone's official existence, location and satisfaction of OAR 123-656-0100(2)(a), except to the extent that the Department is fully aware of such satisfaction;
(c) Information related to local economic hardship is not necessary;
(d) The governments must send notice and engage in timely communication with local taxing districts in accordance with OAR 123-650-5500;
(e) A cosponsor of a zone terminated by order of the Director under ORS 285C.245(3) to (5) is not excluded from applying;
(f) Zone sponsor may not elect under ORS 285C.070 for hotels, motels or destination resorts to be eligible business firms in the zone; and
(g) The designation may not be the re-designation of an existing or previously existing enterprise zone.
(2) The designation of the zone may be made without regard to any limitation on size or dimensions as described in OAR 123-650-1000 and 123-650-1100.
(3) The zone must still conform to requirements for:
(a) Being either urban or rural as described in OAR 123-650-0700, except through a special dispensation in the Director's Order;
(b) Not containing any area inside any other existing enterprise zone consistent with OAR 123-650-1000(2); and
(c) Inclusion of all area in each cosponsor that is inside the Federal Enterprise Zone according to OAR 123-656-0100(1).
(4) The Director shall issue an order to effect the designation.
(5) A (co)sponsor of an existing enterprise zone may not seek designation as described in this rule, if the Federal Enterprise Zone overlaps with a portion of the existing enterprise zone, but rather should avail itself of a boundary change as described in OAR 123-656-2100.

Boundary Changes to Conform to Federal Zone
For purposes of a local request to change the boundary of an existing enterprise zone under ORS 285C.085(3):
(1) The request is generally comparable to submission as described in OAR 123-650-4400 and OAR 123-656-2000.
(2) Such a boundary change may add an area to the existing zone, only if the area is located in a county, in which the zone is already located, or in a contiguous county.
(3) Following the change in the zone boundary, the existing zone shall be Terminated-by-Statute or may be terminated by order of the Director, as normal under ORS 285C.245, irrespective of the boundary change.
(4) If the Federal Enterprise Zone terminates prematurely for nonperformance, violation of federal guidelines or similarly unusual circumstances, then the Director may rescind the order changing the boundary of the zone, as if that boundary change had never occurred. Any business firm located in an area consequently left out of the zone shall enjoy the same protection under the relevant provisions of law and this chapter of administrative rules for location in a terminated enterprise zone.
(5) Once an enterprise zone has been designated or amended as described in OAR 123-656-2000 or this rule, a (further) change in the boundary of the zone may be requested and done under ORS 285C.115, as otherwise allowed, with the following clarifications:
(a) If the total area of the enterprise zone equals or exceeds the relevant 12 or 15 square miles, additional area may be included only if located:
(A) In parts of the Federal Enterprise Zone within a city, port or county that would become a cosponsor of the zone with the boundary change;
(B) In new parts of the Federal Enterprise Zone, as amended by authority of the federal government; or
(C) In another Federal Enterprise Zone that is located in a city, port or county that already sponsors the zone.
(b) If the zone exceeds the maximum overall allowed distance applicable to the zone, additional areas may be included in one of the following ways:
(A) Consistent with subsection (a) of this section;
(B) Where such areas do not increase the overall distance within the zone consistent with provisions under ORS 285C.120(1)(b) and (c); or
(C) By virtue of a waiver under ORS 285C.120(2) as described in OAR 123-650-1100(4).

Hist.: OBDD 24-2010, f. & cert. ef. 6-14-10; OBDD 14-2015, f. & cert. ef. 11-12-15
For an enterprise zone designated as described in OAR 123-656-2000:
(1) The zone is Terminated-by-Statute as normal under ORS 285C.245(2), subsequent to the effective date of designation by order of the Director, regardless of any intervening termination of the Federal Enterprise Zone due to programmed operation under federal statutes or repeal of the operative federal law.
(2) The zone may terminate prematurely by order of the Director under ORS 285C.245(3) to (5) and shall terminate by programmatic sunset under ORS 285C.255 consistent with OAR 123-650-9100(4).
(3) With respect to termination in section (1) of this rule, the local zone sponsor may re-designate it as a regular enterprise zone under ORS 285C.250 but only in conformance with all applicable requirements including but not limited to ORS 285C.090.
(4) In addition, the zone may also terminate by order of the Director under ORS 285C.085(5), effectively rescinding the order designating the zone, as if it had never existed, in the event that the federal government prematurely terminates the Federal Enterprise Zone for nonperformance, violation of federal guidelines or similarly unusual circumstances. In this case, there is no provision for a re-designation under ORS 285C.250, but any business firm located in the zone shall enjoy the same protection under relevant provisions of law and this chapter of administrative rules for location in a terminated enterprise zone.

In this Friday's installment of our partnership with 5by, the video discovery platform that curates the web's best viral videos, we take a look at the top five videos of the week from the platform's TV category.
Trending this week is a host of clips all either added this week, about a new series, or about a new season. For more on the videos selected, Theo Tabah, 5by's Head of Content:
Late night TV clips continue to make for viral videos as hosts coax celebs into doing wacky things, speak their mind or poke fun at serious issues. Jimmy works out with The Rock, John Oliver blows our minds with some disturbing American prison stats, and 14 year-old's performance on Australia's Got Talent will certainly go through the social media share cycle.We're also seeing more and more YouTube stars get big-time deals, and paving the way is "Epic Meal Time" – a popular miniseries that involves dudes, ridiculous recipes, and usually bacon. It was offered a TV show and naturally, they released their entire first episode for free online. Finally, another teaser was released for the 5th and final season of Boardwalk Empire, which is gearing up to be the best yet.

Not sure if that's you wanted, I'm personally not too satisfied with it myself. Could you maybe take a screenshot of the part that you wanted and outline what you want in the avatar?
also the reason the bearded dragon goes all the way to the bottom is because I don't want the avatar to show the mirror
Could you tell me the program that you used to download the video?

Found a work around just now.
Done, but it's not really "colorful" enough for me
If anyone wants it feel free to snatch it
Hate to sound like a bother, but if anyone is willing to, I really appreciate it!
If anyone could get 0:43-0:46 into a gif as gold size maximum(80x80, correct?) for me, that'd be splendid!
Edit: Actually, just seems that it does a skip from 46 to 48 and then it's done. I suppose that'd be easier! So... 0:43-end?
Could someone please flip all of these without any errors such as animation going off the screen and all that while keeping the transparency? Thanks.
Can anybody get an 80x80 gif of 00:54 to 00:59 of this, with a 1px black border?
Can someone make an .gif avatar, 80x80 from this?
3:29 - 3:37
Gif of, 1:44 to 1:49 please.
What programs do you use for converting videos to gifs, btw?
I'm an idiot, and I always have a problem re-sizing images. Can someone make this 64x64 for me?
Could someone make the background transparent and resized to a usable avatar please?
Could I get 1:33 - 1:36 in a GIF with 1PX border please <3
Can someone turn it into a gif to where it changes color like those party hard gifs?
Can I get this re-sized?
I'm using it for another forum so my restrictions are 180 x 180 but that would look kind of dumb with a rectangle image, so can someone re-size it to where it will look good with those restrictions?
5:12 of the Colonel's Face
Can some one make this 80x80 and workable with fp's avatar needs.
Thanks man.
Free avatar if anyone wants one
