A Denver grand jury has indicted a key witness in the Darrent Williams homicide case on two counts of perjury in the first degree and one count of attempting to influence a public servant.
Court records show Mario Anderson, 22, was a passenger in the back seat of a Chevrolet Tahoe that was used in the drive-by shooting of Denver Broncos player Darrent Williams.
The indictment was unsealed today, but the Denver district attorney's office was refusing to release the document and ordered the court clerk not to release it. No reason was given, and it was not clear under what authority District Attorney Mitch Morrissey was acting in blocking the release of a public document.
In October 2008, Willie Clark was indicted by a grand jury on first-degree murder charges.
The 39-count indictment says that a witness reported to investigators that Clark was the driver and that Anderson was sitting in the rear seat behind Clark.
Shots were fired at Williams' limousine as he left a Denver nightclub early on New Year's Day 2007.
The shooting followed an altercation between a group of men Williams was with and another group of men outside the Shelter nightclub on 10th Avenue and Broadway in Denver.
Williams was struck in the neck by a bullet and died. Two other passengers inside the Hummer stretch limo were wounded.
Clark's trial was supposed to start in October, but the case was moved to Feb. 22 because the defense attorneys say they still have more evidence to analyze and want to conduct interviews of witnesses, including NFL players.
This morning, Denver District Judge Christina Habas agreed to postpone the trial.
Habas told Clark that she wants to avoid holding the trial in the middle of Denver Broncos season or in the post-season so he can get a fair trial.
Clark said he understood and agreed with the delay but said it didn't matter when it is held.
"I really don't see how I can get a fair trial anyway," he said to Habas. "I was in the media for two years saying constantly, 'He done it. He done it. He done it,' and I didn't do it."

Good photos, great quality Is this the same camera that you normally use? As I think you have the same as I do, but I never seem to achieve that quality
Hello RC. I have a few Heucheras and have found that they do well in semi shade, I would not grow them in containers as they seem (for me) to do well in damp soil, which is hard to achieve in a small container from day to day.
I suggest that you google Heucheras - you may be amazed at the variety available, I am rather hooked on them; my favourite is Pinot Gris
Dyers End, suggest you put it on freecycle. But I have to ask; why don't you want it? Making your own compost is SO rewarding - it gets rid of a lot of garden and kitchen waste.
...um...how much sugar?

Skip to comments.Left Turns Rachel Carson into Hero for Children
Posted on 09/20/2012 3:00:43 PM PDT by Kaslin
The left wants to tell children a story about the founding of modern environmentalism, but their fairy tale version ignores the grim reality.
Storybooks abound about Rachel Carson, the marine biologist who wrote "Silent Spring" nearly 50 years ago. In fact, there are 130 children's books about her available through Amazon.com that teach children to idolize Carson and how to become liberal activists, but without telling them the lives that could have been saved by DDT. Some of those books even promoted left-wing environmental groups like the George Soros-funded Natural Resources Defense Council.
The books are pro-environmentalist propaganda, sometimes targeted at toddlers and young children who would more typically be looking at books about animals and cars. One such picture book by Laurie Lawlor, called "Rachel Carson and Her Book That Changed the World" tells little ones: "No one had taken a stand against big business, federal agencies that approved chemical use, or universities that performed shoddy research about the effects of chemicals. She knew she was walking into dangerous territory."
"Rachel Carson and Her Book That Changed the World," released in February, is just the latest of many books for children of all ages about the lefty environmental "hero." Left-wing eco-activists laud Carson as the foremother of today's environmental movement. Former vice president Al Gore even wrote the introduction to a 1994 edition of "Silent Spring," and credited her as his inspiration to become an environmentalist.
Gore wrote: "Rachel Carson was one of the reasons why I became so conscious of the environment and so involved in environmental issues." Of course, the environmentalists who idolize Carson and her 1962 book ignore the negative impact it. Without it, DDT could have been used to help prevent millions of people from dying a miserable death from malaria.
From beautifully illustrated picture books to young reader's books, there is plenty of pro-Carson (anti-chemical) propaganda available to children. Many of these books come complete with sections dedicated to Gore and "An Inconvenient Truth" along with suggestions for how small children can become eco-activists.
"Rachel Carson" by Marie-Therese Miller, part of a book series called: "Conservation Heroes", is aimed at older grade school children. Gore also has a book in this series. This book outlined the lefts vision of what Rachel Carson accomplished and her history. In the final chapter dedicated to Carson's supposed legacy, the author failed to mention the real lasting impression of Carson — a continual state of environmental hysteria.
"Who on Earth is Rachel Carson? Mother of the Environmental Movement" by Glenn Scherer and Marty Fletcher, indoctrinates grade school children into thinking that population growth is bad. They wrote, "Rachel also saw what happens to nature when the human population increases rapidly and development takes place with little or no control."
After sharing one-sided tales of Carson the hero, both "Rachel Carson" and "Who on Earth is Rachel Carson? Mother of the Environmental Movement" teach kids how to become environmentalists like her. Both books end with suggestions on where a child can go to get involved in the environmental movement. A child could visit the website for Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), a Soros-funded environmental extremist group, or they could get involved at their local Sierra club.
Henry Miller, scholar at Stanford University's Hoover Institute, argued in a Sept. 5 op-ed for Forbes.com called "Rachel Carson's Deadly Fantasies" that Carson's real legacy lie in her disingenuous claims that stopped a useful life saver around the world.
"DDT was used with dramatic effect to shorten and prevent typhus epidemics during and after WWII when people were dusted with large amounts of it but suffered no ill effects, which is perhaps the most persuasive evidence that the chemical is harmless to humans," Miller wrote.
Another expert, Dennis Avery, a senior fellow for the Hudson Institute, said Carson is indirectly responsible for millions of preventable deaths noting "The absence of DDT had led to the needless deaths of at least 30 million people from malaria and yellow fever in the tropics … Most of them were helpless African children."
She is a hero to the left. With a body count like hers how could she be otherwise?
(She even gets extra bonus points for most of the victims being darker skinned third world types *sigh*)
Stalin, Mao, Hitler, Pol Pot, Rachel Carson...all the same.
Different only in the tools, winter, starvation, gas, rice flails, words...
Rachel Carson is the icon of good intentions meeting reality.
I read this at first as being about Rachel Corrie, the flatlander. Oops.
She also used a bad example in the case of Clear Lake.
But then she wasn't too bright. Just nuts.
I wonder how many African kids died of malaria so that birds could be protected from DDT.
Hundreds of thousands, if not more?
Sunday school for the greenies
Rachel Carson has probably been responsible for 100s of millions of deaths.
It can be previewed HERE.
I want my, I want my, I want my DDT!

Dressed-Up Collaboration
Engineering and art can live on such different planets.
But for two Case Western Reserve students, the mashing of technology with wearable art reinforced the creative power of confluence—and resulted in some pretty cool garments.
Last fall, computer engineering senior Ray Krajci teamed with Cleveland Institute of Art students in a CIA competition to design wearable technology, melding art and light.
Krajci's team pulled a Best of Show in an April judging. Their entry included two dresses—"Pulse" and "Luminance"— whose lights are triggered by the wearer's movement.
"We wanted Pulse to be intimidating as well as elegant," says Krajci, whose work ranged from building circuitry to sewing.
The first runner-up award went to "Effulgence." Daoning Zhou, a junior chemical engineering major, says he helped develop a way to change the intensity of the light as the wearer's heartbeat quickened or slowed.
The students relished the experience. "No grades, no rubrics—just the group's vision to bring together many disciplines for a beautiful piece of fashion," says Krajci, who graduated in December and is now a teaching assistant at think[box], the university's invention center. —Shivani Parikh

Over the weekend, I received terrible news that a family member (extended family) had passed away. Since the last funeral I attended was well over 10 years ago, I was discussing funeral attire with a few close co-workers. While most women have a black dress somewhere in their closet, I do not. I own black dresses, but all of them have a pop of color somewhere in the fabric.
My plan, initially, was to wear black pants and a black top to the calling hours… until one of my colleagues said wearing pants, of any color, would be wildly inappropriate. She insisted that I needed to wear a black dress to both the calling hours and the funeral, and there could not be any color anywhere on the dress. She said it would be tasteless for me to wear anything but solid black.
Now, I'm asking my fellow readers for help. Is it inappropriate to wear black dress pants and a black top to calling hours? Are colors, other than black, really not allowed (and deemed disrespectful) at funeral services?
ARA: Seeking funeral attire advice
32 Responses
I think your co-worker is wildly out of date. Unless you are the widow or in deep mourning it is completely appropiate to wear some color to a wake or funeral. I would wear the black pants with a grey blouse or sweater or maybe even beige or some other muted color. I would not wear something that included a color that "popped" however. Stick with muted or darker colors. My condolonces to you and your family.
I think it is fine to wear pants and it is also fine not to wear black. Funerals don't have to be depressing in every aspect. Do you know your relative's favorite color? If so, it would be very appropriate and a nice tribute to display that color in your clothing. My best friend passed away in November and several of us, including her mom, sister, aunts, uncles, cousins etc., wore orange because that was her favorite color. It was a beautiful and uplifting tribute. I don't see how anyone could say that black pants are "wildly inappropriate". I am sorry for your loss. Don't stress about what you are wearing, the important thing is that you are there and that you make your own peace with everything.
#1 and 2 gave great advice. You are a member of the extended family, not the immediate family, therefore, you will not be standing in the receiving line. Pants are just fine. It's hard to believe you haven't been to a wake in 10 years (you're lucky)–you will be amazed at the attire some folks will be wearing. You have my condolences.
I agree with Christine and CG on the attire. My condolences on your loss. :(
I agree with all of the above. Funerals are more about celebrating the life, rather than the death of the person.People are more casual about what they wear. I have seen people wearing pants and people wearing muted colors – greys, browns navy or black at funerals.
So very sorry for your loss. Can't add anything new here, except to agree with above. No flashy outfits. Pants are fine – don't even have to be black. Just dark, subdued color. You'll be fine.
I agree with #1, your co worker is definitely out of date.
I haven't seen anyone wear all black to a funeral in the 28 years I've been alive. And most women I see wearing pants, not skirts or dresses.
Black or dark gray pants are just fine and any muted color of a shirt. Don't overthink it… and peace to you and your family.
#2-CG said it all. I also want to comment on what a thoughtful and creative tribute you paid to your friend by wearing her favorite color – very touching.
My thought is that a funeral is the last place where people should be catty. If those attending are more focused on the attendees' wardrobes than they are to the deceased, they are not there for the right reasons. My condolences…
as long as you are honoring the dead it doesnt matter what u wear!
Nice black pants with a black or dark/muted top or jacket are fine. If you prefer a dress, it doesn't have to be all black. As long as it's a muted color (navy, brown, olive etc) and not something flashy or festive or bright, it is fine.
My condolences to the reader and her family.
Agree with 1-3. I think the key thing to keep in mind is to dress sedately. Nothing wild, or revealing and the reader should be fine.
I'm with #'s 1, 2 AND 3!
Unless the pants and top are fancy smancy or skin tight – I think they are absolutely appropriate.
A lonnnnnnnng time ago I went to a funeral of a co-worker that I was particularly close to. I wore a Salmon colored suit that he complimented me on every time I wore it to work. I got a couple of strange looks, but I mentioned to his widow why I wore what I did and she seemed to understand. Regardless I did what I thought he would have appreciated – and that's what mattered to me.
I am so sorry for your loss. I had a funeral to attend for a close family member earlier this month & I can tell you that it is not "necessary" to be all in black. Even my Aunt's daughters wore some color, subdued but color nonetheless. Wear something respectful that you're comfortable in & don't worry about. You're going to this "event" to show your respect to the deceased & support the family & that's all that matters!!
How old is your coworker, like 90!?!? Seriously! I don't think it matters what you wear to the services. The point is you are there to show your respect.
I think it is fine to wear dark pants to the calling hours with a dark shirt or jacket. I wore black pants, a light purple shirt and a black print jacket to my mom's wake. For her funeral I wore a dark brown dress. I was a pallbearer, as were my sisters and they were also not all in black from head to toe. The only people I saw at my mom's wake and funeral who were dressed in all black were over 60 years old.
I think the more important thing is that you are there to remember your loved one and grieve with your family. My sincere condolences for your loss.
When was the last time your co-worker attended a Wake? The Victorian era?
Of course you can wear pants to a funeral and/or wake. And as others have mentioned, black isn't mandatory. It's optional.
You should consider the context as well. Is your family very formal and traditional? Was the person who died a very traditional person, or very revered within the family? Is the person who died a career military officer, police officer, fireman, elected official? Will the funeral and services have a heavy or orthodox religious component to them? If any of these apply, you may need something more formal. In these cases, the amount that you dress up, in part, indicates your respect for the person, the profession/office, or the religion.
The last wake funeral I went to (a year ago) – none of the above situations applied, and I wore black dress pants and a black top. Not formal-wear, but slightly dressy. It was not a problem at all. Some folks were more dressed up, some less so. The point of that funeral (and all funerals, in my experience) is to show your love, share the burden of grief, and to celebrate the life of the one passed. It's not a fashion show, nor a place for others to judge you on your attire – and those who do, probably have no need to be there.
Anyone remember The Etiquette Girls?
"Somewhere, Someone is Wearing a Tube Top in Church.
At a Funeral."
Your planned look is more than appropriate. Women have been wearing pants now for decades. What's with your co-worker is a better question!
My rule of thumb is dark colored and business attire. Dark blues, greens, purples are all appropriate in place of black and pants for women are certainly acceptable; it's 2010!
It's your presence and support that counts at the funeral, not your choice of clothing. I guarantee you that the widow(er)/children/companion will remember you were there with kind words and a hug, not how much leg you were showing and that your top was navy blue.
Sadly I lost both my Dad and brother in the past year. As someone who works at home (as an artist) my wardrobe is limited to primarily pants. I wore dress pants – one pair was black, another brown – to their wakes and funerals. As long as you're dressed respectfully and tastefully it doesn't matter if it's in a dress or pants and can be a subdued color other than black. My condolences to you.
Ditto to what everyone said. Your co worker is wrong. In fact, unless I'm a fairly close relative of the deceased, I don't prefer to wear all black. I feel like I have the right to grieve, but not to truly mourn, as mourning is reserved for the people closest to the deceased.
Dark dress pants or skirt, a subdued suit or jacket would be appropriate. When you see the way some people are dressed at the calling hours, you will be amazed that you spent so much time thinking about what to wear!
I am sure you are back from the "wake"/funeral services and saw that perhaps ANYTHING goes at this event! But slacks became appropriate at these ceremonies as soon as women were "allowed" to wear pant suits to the office (like in the mid 70's).
Red was always the verboten color in the (many) death ceremonies of my childhood. Now I see black at weddings and white at funerals.
I agree something subdued is usually what makes it easy. (watch the heels however if you will attend the graveside service and will be standing on soft ground)
The immediate family won't even notice what you wear. I just buried my father last week and I can't remember what anyone wore.
#1 and #2 are right on the money. Pants are fine, and you can certainly get away with colors other than black. Stay conservative and respectful and you are good to go.
I agree with many of the comments here. It is of no importance to the deceased if you are not wearing black. When my father died I wore a dress that he had told me how much he liked the color on me. I felt just right wearing it but I never wore it again. I miss you Daddy!
I think it is completely appropriate to wear pants and agree w/ all of the above comments. I very much like the idea of wearing a color that the deceased liked. When my boyfriend's mother passed away in November, we all wore purple in some way as it was her favorite color. We also all wore one of her many angel pins that she loved very much. Any kind of tasteful black pant is perfectly appropriate!
Just the fact that you are concerned shows that you will dress in an appropriate and respectful manner. True style comes from the inside.
When my brother was murdered 2 years ago, i work a light moss green pantsuit one day and a bright purple sweater with a black skirt the next. Because that was appropriate for HIS services. If you have something in mind that you are comfortable in, go with it. Being there shows respect, and you can take into consideration the person you are mourning.
when i go, I certainly hope black is the accent color to peole outfits. but thats just me.
Im not sure what your co-worker was thinking, but im sure she has a nice warm apple pie cooling on her window sill for when the Beav comes over.
Black pants are fine.
Colors are fine too.
The way I look at it is this: as long as you don't look like you're dressed to go out clubbing, or to the beach, etc. you should be fine.
Just dress respectfully.
Lately I think more about footwear. In my opinion, nothing open toed should be worn to a funeral/wake/burial/etc.

John Mulaney is a TERRIBLE driver
John Mulaney, a comedian and writer at "Saturday Night Live," is really, really bad at driving. He doesn't know anything about how cars work, he panics easily on the road and all the other drivers are forced to maneuver around him. Yeah, he's pretty much a major menace to our nation's highways …

SAFETY issues at the pedestrian crossing by the new Regent Circus development will be ironed out as the September 4 launch date of the complex approaches.
On Tuesday, councillors and council officers met representatives of Swindon Back Garden residents' association to discuss the concerns around the crossing, which has been transformed into a raised pedestrian island subject to a 20mph speed limit.
A full safety audit will take place after the work is completed, but officers are looking into temporary solutions to safety fears in the meantime.
The plan is to hold a full residents' meeting to assuage any remaining worries about the crossing, and measures are already being planned to improve the area for the town's cyclists.
Toby Robson, of Swindon Back Garden, said: "This has been a first stage meeting to show what our concerns were.
"We have been trying to engage with the officers so our local councillors indicated our concerns.
"Most of the main questions were asked but there were not many answers at this stage."
Toby said that with the grand opening of the Regent Circus complex pencilled in for September 4, time is running out to rectify any lasting issues.
"We want clarification now on some of the safety issues," he said.
"It is good that discussions are now taking place, but when mitigation is being put in place this late it makes things difficult."
Coun Stan Pajak (Lib Dem, Eastcott), attended the meeting on Tuesday with council officers.
"There are worries about how the area is going to cope, because there is no pelican- type crossing there," he said.
"In theory we have got a ramped area where pedestrians have priority.
"So far we have not had any major problems, but it is a big worry for local residents.
"Right now we have got all the construction work taking place, and this has been an opportunity to talk to officers and show them the concerns.
"They have now gone away to look at how they can improve things in this temporary period.
"One issue from cyclists was to do with the width of the cobbles, and a consultant has agreed to raise the depth so cyclists no longer get stuck.
"This was a chance for officers and ourselves to talk about these issues.
"But from a local point of view we will have a residents' meeting to let them get some of the answers from officers.
"They have set a provisional date for the grand launch on September 4.
"It is quite remarkable the speed with which they have managed to build it."

Hungry Kilkenny the masters in all areas
Kilkenny were by far the best team – with team being the operative word – and fully deserved their success
NOTHING IS as dangerous as a wounded Cat, and this game was only in its infancy when Michael Fennelly – who had a tremendous match in a fine team performance – epitomised Kilkenny's hunger. Remember? Fennelly bullocked into Shane McGrath, put the Tipperary midfielder on his backside and, apart from it resulting in a Richie Power point, the bigger message was sent out – Kilkenny were in no mood to take any prisoners.
That Fennelly challenge – entirely legal – on McGrath was not an isolated one. All over the field Kilkenny players hurled as if their lives depended on each and every outcome.
Another example of Kilkenny's sheer will to win and willingness to get involved in the thick of things came when Colin Fennelly blocked down Lar Corbett near the sideline some 50 yards from the Tipperary goal. He needed stitches to a head wound, but again it summed up just how hungry Kilkenny were for this game and, from an early stage, what it meant to them.
Make no mistake about it, Kilkenny were by far the best team – with team being the operative word – and fully deserved this success.
They were the masters in all areas and, from the word go, set out to dominate the physical exchanges just as much as they did in their pomp and in their glory years.
When you see Brian Cody so animated on the sideline, and celebrating afterwards like he did, you know how much it means to Kilkenny to come back and regain their crown.
And they did it with some of the greatest hurlers who have ever played the game. You have to take your hat off to them, to every one of them.
To see Henry Shefflin, one of the true greats of hurling, getting an eighth All-Ireland medal, is a special moment in Irish sport.
A number of people, myself included, had questioned their desire. But these boys knew what they were doing. They were getting ready for the big battle and, on the day, they were spot on.
They were supreme and it is the due reward for King Henry and his deputies all around him, men like Noel Hickey and JJ Delaney and Eddie Brennan and them all. They are a credit to Kilkenny and to the game of hurling.
Yesterday, the signs were ominous for Tipperary from an early stage.
As I said, Fennelly putting Shane McGrath on his backside was a symbol of Kilkenny's hunger and physicality, but the pattern was set from early on with Kilkenny dominant in the defence.
Jackie Tyrrell was having a great game on Corbett while Tommy Walsh and Brian Hogan, who was sorely missed last year, were really up for it.
Tipperary struggled to win any ball early on and, when they did, they were closed down very quickly.
The writing was on the wall for Tipperary after 10 minutes when Kilkenny were 0-5 to 0-0 in the lead.
It wasn't just about the scoring, it was about how dominant and hungry they were as a team. Kilkenny hunted in packs and the selection of a rejuvenated Eddie Brennan was a master-stroke by Cody.
Pádraic Maher is a huge player for Tipperary, but he wasn't the dominant figure they wanted him to be and that was down to Brennan's impact.
Every one of the Kilkenny backs were on top. They were hungry and were up for it from the word go. Tyrrell. Hickey. JJ Walsh. Hogan. Murphy.
Every one of them was immense and Tipperary were living on scraps.
I thought Tipperary actually did well to be 0-5 to 0-3 down and then 0-7 to 0-4 behind (even if this was mostly due to Eoin Kelly's frees) before the first killer blow was delivered by Michael Fennelly's goal.
Michael Fennelly delivered a man-of-the-match performance and the way he came galloping through for that goal – and the way he played throughout the game – gave the lie to the rumours about his fitness.
He was the main energy source for Kilkenny and his goal was a great one for Kilkenny and a huge blow for Tipperary.
The start of the second half was a repeat of the first. Tipperary were blocked down time and time again and their persistence with short passing in the half-back line and in midfield didn't make much sense as Kilkenny were able to close them down. There was too much traffic to be playing that kind of ball. It needed to be moved on earlier.
The second killer blow for Tipperary was Richie Hogan's goal. But that too highlighted Tipperary were that bit off the pace and lacked touch on the day as Paddy Stapleton had a chance to flick the ball away ahead of him. It symbolised how Tipperary's touch was that little bit off all day and, eight points behind after that goal, it left them with a mountain to climb.
Tipperary did show great courage and great heart after going eight points down. Bonner Maher and John O'Brien – Tipperary's best possession winners all day – both worked even harder and their defence improved but, even when Pa Bourke scored Tipperary's goal with Corbett's only real intervention in the game to get it back to within three points, Kilkenny were always able to find a point. Tipperary conceded a poor free through David Young, which typified their day, and a symbol of that Kilkenny team effort came at the death when Eoin Larkin – another of their great players through the years – snatched the ball from out of the air and confirmed the victory.
It was well deserved.
There can be no complaints from Tipperary and they will just have to go back to the drawing board. They were well beaten on the day and fought well to get within four points. But the reality is they didn't show the hunger they showed when winning last year.
The hype had moved to Tipperary and the hunger moved to Kilkenny.

Watch Elmo Do Government Propaganda!
November 20, 2012
Now that Elmo creator Kevin Clash has resigned due to an underage sex scandal, I thought I might peruse YouTube for Elmo videos to see if anything came across as particularly ironic. You'll never guess what I found.
In December of 2010, Elmo visited the kitchen of the White House to promote Obama's school lunch program. It was even featured on the White House blog.
As a Gen-Xer, I grew up on Sesame Street but that was a different time. I have no recollection of Grover or Kermit the Frog visiting the Reagan White House. Back then, Sesame Street wasn't in the propaganda business.
Your taxes paid for this…

Infinix has teased on the Xclub forum its first Smartwatch smartband, the Xband.
The Xband is gorgeous and has a premium look and feel despite the Smartband being marketed as a budget wearable.
From the looks of it, the Xband isn't exactly a Smartwatch, but rather a super-sophisticated Smartband. The Xband seems to be modeled around the Huawei TalkBand B2 in terms of design and features.
The smartphone is long overdue since the other smartphone brands have already released version after version of their smartwatches. The move is, however, still commendable since other budget smartphone vendors in Kenya are yet to unveil their wearable devices.
Infinix is yet to give the complete specifications of the Xband but some of its touted features include a pedometer and a calorie burner counter. The Xband also has an app (already available on the Playstore) to analyze and organize the data the band collects.
Infinix is yet to give an official recommended retail price of the Xband but the band is expected to have a price in the range of Ksh. 8,000 to Ksh. 9,000.

Children with significant father involvement do better in more than thirty areas (e.g., social, such as empathy and assertiveness; psychological, such as less depression and less ADHD; and all academic areas).
However, many dads, not aware of what they do that contributes to these outcomes, or afraid of conflict with mom, withdraw from an active role in parenting.
whether in an intact family, or after divorce. Father and Child Reunion helps moms and dads understand why the checks and balances of their different contributions are as important in raising a family as checks and balances are to governing a nation.
Father and Child Reunion gives every family concrete insights as to what to do if, for example, your child doesn't like her or his teacher; is preoccupied with computer games; doesn't help around the house; talks back disrespectfully, wants rights but not responsibilities,…. Drawing from research from around the world, Father and Child Reunion also lets parents of divorce know:
In the audio version, the highlights of Father and Child Reunion are recreated by Warren Farrell personally, and in dialogue form, as if you were having a conversation with him.

The man police believe murdered a 20-year-old last weekend in the James Cayce public housing development is in jail after his Thursday-night arrest in Murfreesboro.
Metro police, with help from Rutherford County Sheriff's Office personnel, arrested Charzelle Swafford, 21, at a Courtland Street home in Murfreesboro.
Police said it was a Crime Stoppers tip that led to Swafford's arrest. Police sought Swafford after the shooting death of Dejuantae Moore Saturday afternoon at a 604 Sylvan St. apartment.
According to police, Swafford and Moore got into an argument Friday night. Afterward, Swafford allegedly knocked on the apartment's back door shortly after noon on Saturday and opened fire on Moore when he opened the door.
Swafford then allegedly shot 15-year-old Taurus Williams before running upstairs and trying to shoot three other teens in the apartment. The gun, however, failed to fire.
Moore died at the scene. Williams is still listed in stable condition at Vanderbilt Children's Hospital.
Police charged Swafford with four counts of attempted murder aside from the criminal homicide charge. He is in jail on $600,000 bond.

I'm helping start a new organization dedicating to fostering, promoting and publishing public-interest journalism in New Mexico. Don't worry, NMPolitics.net isn't going anywhere.
For more than six years I've worked through NMPolitics.net to provide hard-hitting but fair reporting while also encouraging policy and political debate that promotes the common good.
But it's been a struggle. The pressure of feeding the daily news cycle has been taxing, and I've not been satisfied with the level of reporting NMPolitics.net produces.
As I've written before on NMPolitics.net, funding strong, probative journalism in the 21st Century is a daily battle – one that more media outlets than not are losing. The quality of journalism in this country has dropped significantly. The public no longer views journalism as the noble profession it once was, probably with good reason.
I've been working for more than two years on a new project I hope will help change that.
New Mexico In Depth is getting ready to launch, and we plan to start publishing later this year. Our goal is to foster, promote and publish journalism in the public interest. Our focuses will include education, poverty, health and politics.
Trip Jennings, who you may know from his reporting stints at The Santa Fe New Mexican, New Mexico Independent and Albuquerque Journal, will serve as New Mexico In Depth's executive director. I will serve as its deputy director while continuing to run NMPolitics.net.
New Mexico In Depth will produce its own investigative reports and forge partnerships with existing media outlets around New Mexico in a bid to nurture a culture of ambitious journalism that tackles big questions and complex issues.
Our funding
The W. K. Kellogg Foundation has made a two-year funding commitment to New Mexico In Depth totaling $525,000. New Mexico In Depth is also funded in part by the McCune Charitable Foundation.
Here's what Jennings had to say about the project in a news release we sent out recently:
"We are inspired by Kellogg's belief in the importance of probative journalism that ventures beyond the daily events to seek to explain what it all means to New Mexicans."
As for me, I said in that release that we are excited by the potential New Mexico In Depth has to foster a stronger journalistic culture in our state and thrilled to be able to devote time and resources to building partnerships that make that a reality.
The Kellogg Foundation (Yes, it was founded by the cereal pioneer, Will Keith Kellogg), focuses domestically in four areas – Michigan, Mississippi, New Mexico and New Orleans. Its mission states that it is "guided by the belief that all children should have an equal opportunity to thrive" and "works with communities to create conditions for vulnerable children so they can realize their full potential in school, work and life."
The McCune Foundation's mission states that it is "dedicated to enriching the health, education, environment and cultural and spiritual life of New Mexicans."
We're grateful to these organizations for being willing to financially support our vision of building a journalistic culture in New Mexico that does a better job of promoting the common good. You can expect the same level of dedication, passion and integrity from my work with New Mexico In Depth that you've become accustomed to with NMPolitics.net.
NMPolitics.net isn't going anywhere
And don't worry – NMPolitics.net isn't going anywhere. In the last six years I've built the site from nothing into one of the most-read and influential in the state. It's precious to me, and I'm dedicated to continuing this site even as we start our new project.
In fact, New Mexico In Depth will be sharing its work with other media outlets, including NMPolitics.net, in an attempt to ensure a wider reach. I believe New Mexico In Depth's work will improve the quality of journalism you'll read on NMPolitics.net.
I look forward to updating you further on our plans for New Mexico In Depth in the near future, and to continuing to bring you coverage of politics and government through NMPolitics.net.
If you're interested in learning more about New Mexico In Depth, you can follow it on Twitter @NMInDepth. You can also watch a video in which a KNME-TV journalist interviewed Jennings about the project here, and read some of the articles about our new project here.

Cougars Notebook: Spinal injury ends QB's career at WSU
But Rogers able to walk from hospital
Published 10:00 pm, Sunday, September 21, 2008
PULLMAN -- The rebuilding Washington State Cougars must learn to walk before they can run, and WSU players were delighted to learn that quarterback Gary Rogers was able to walk out of the hospital Sunday, one day after suffering a spinal fracture in a win over Portland State.
WSU head trainer Bill Drake said "it's just too early" to determine if Rogers will be able to play football again, but the fifth-year senior's career at WSU is over. Drake said Rogers will wear a hard collar for six weeks to stabilize "the seventh bone down from the base of the skull and the neck."
"It's not a large fracture," Drake said, "but nevertheless it's a fracture, and the first thing you look for with a neck fracture in imaging is, is it stable or not?
"This one is very stable, non-surgical. His spinal cord was not compromised in any way, and his neurological status is full function."
WSU coach Paul Wulff said he was "very stunned" to learn how badly Rogers was injured, since Rogers was hurt on a play that did not appear to be particularly violent. Senior safety Aaron Dickson was penalized for a late hit on the play.
"It wasn't extremely late, but it was late, and it was a foul, and it wasn't necessary, obviously," Wulff said. "That's all I can say.
"It wasn't an absolute cheap shot. It was just a late hit. The kid (Dickson) didn't go for a body part or an area that he was intentionally trying to hurt Gary."
Rogers, who starred at Kamiak High School in Mukilteo, saw little action while waiting four years behind all-time WSU passing leader Alex Brink. Rogers earned his first two college starts in WSU's first two games this season, then set career highs for passing yardage while coming off the bench the past two games.
"I saw him last night in the hospital pretty late and his family," Wulff said. "Obviously, he's disappointed and sad, but he's thankful, too.
"Coach Sturdy (offensive coordinator Todd Sturdy) saw him today at lunchtime. He was in good spirits."
Wulff said Rogers, a sport management major, should graduate in December.
"His parents (Gary and Linda) are to be commended for raising a fabulous kid, or young man," Wulff said. "They've done an outstanding job of raising a great, great person, a wonderful young man and someone who is going to be a great, great, great person in society."
Rogers and Kevin Lopina, who started at quarterback the past two games, were seen walking extremely gingerly Sunday. Lopina said his right (throwing) arm was "numb" after being severely bruised when he was sacked and knocked out of the game in the second quarter. Lopina also complained of back pain.
Wulff said redshirt freshman Marshall Lobbestael will be prepared for his first start if necessary. Lobbestael, who led Oak Harbor High School to the 2006 4A State title, threw his first two college touchdown passes Saturday.
"Marshall did exceptionally well," senior wide receiver Brandon Gibson said.
"I'm a believer in Marshall," Wulff said. "He's got a chance to be a good player."
The Cougars (1-3 overall, 0-1 Pac-10) play their homecoming game Saturday against Oregon (3-1, 1-1). Kickoff is set for 3:15 p.m. on FSN.
Oregon slipped from 17th to 26th in Sunday's new Associated Press poll after losing Saturday to Boise State. The Ducks are 22nd in the USA Today poll and 27th in the CollegeFootballNews.com rankings. CFN ranks Washington State 100th out of 119 teams.
The Ducks rank in the top 10 nationally on a per-game basis with 299.3 rushing yards (fourth), 537.8 total yards (seventh), 3.25 sacks (eighth) and 43.5 points (tied for 10th). The Cougars rank in the bottom eight nationally with 249.8 rushing yards allowed (117th), minus-2.25 turnovers (116th), 39.8 points allowed (114th) and 3.0 sacks allowed (four-way tie for 109th).
EXTRA POINTS: Former WSU running back Rueben Mayes, elected for induction into the College Football Hall of Fame earlier this year, will be honored at halftime Saturday. Mayes recently left his administrative post at WSU to work in fundraising for a Eugene hospital. ... A limited number of tickets remain on sale. Phone 1-800-462-6847 or go to wsucougars.com. ...
The Cougars are 9-14 in Pullman since 2004, including 4-14 in the Pac-10. ... Middle linebacker Greg Trent, a starter for most of his four years at WSU, recorded his first interception Saturday. ... Reserve wide receiver Anthony Houston has been suspended indefinitely for an undisclosed violation of team rules.

Hybrid for Zobsky
1 Attachment(s)
Just thinking how to balance the output stage currents.
I want the MOSFET to "warm up" with the Tetrode and
keep all currents in balance. I've also put a shunt reg
for imaginary screen currents on the MOSFET side too.
I am aware much (the entire front end) is missing.
All far from a working simulation yet.
I wonder if its fair game to call C3 an "Ultrapath"?
1 Attachment(s)
Here's some Schade feedback, as Zob requested.
Yeah, I put it on the MOSFET, but the curve of lesser transconductance
is dominant here, and that would still be the Tetrode! So, we Schade
this Tetrode by returning partial feedback to its Cathode. Advantage
theoretically is a higher input impedance. But I don't know if thats an
actual advantage? if G1 benefits by being allowed to leak, that might
outweigh desire for a high input impedance. I may end up Schading
on the Tetrode side yet, or both...
I got to do some math or get this a little more simmable to adjust the
DC current leaking through R13 on the right side to match that leaked
by R4 on the left side.
Hmmmm... Maybe if I Schade the Tetrode side to allow more grid leak?
I could feed the input signal to the MOSFET's gate instead... Yeah, that
might be the ticket. Think I can Schade and still keep input impedance
rather high. More redraw...
1 Attachment(s)
A few tweaks and re-arrangements...
I've realized MOSFET source voltage will always come up first,
so makes more sense for that end of our ultrapath be positive.
I'm also abusing MOSFET to drive the cathode of the Valve.
Means I have to raise the source voltage to have room for
our input signal to swing above current mirrored collectors.
MOSFET and bridging cap together make an Ultrapath.
Folded cascode ultrapath action also makes this MOSFET
behave as an anti-triode, doubling power in the process.
I am Schading this Tetrode for Triode behavior by way of
inductively coupled partial feedback to the grid. Schade's
original did this, so why not???
Don't start wiring anything yet. Its still not yet simmed.
Think at this point, we need to confirm how many Henries
on each winding of those 10WCXPP? And find us an 6AQ5
spice model, if a true 6P1P model is not available.
Aside from an anti-triode in the signal path, all other sand
here is performing constant current or shunt regulator duty.
Plausibly deniable as "outside the signal path".
You can ignore all the BJTs as-if they were not there for
purpose of understanding the signal path. That much I've
kept simple as possible.
Whoops... Shunt reg for screens need a rethink.
I've created amazingly poor PSRR by shunting
noise that would have gone to the screen onto
the input signal instead (and done so twice!).
If I return Q3 and Q4 collectors to GND instead,
there is no PSRR problem. But also no accounting
for screen current in the mirror below. This is all
fixable somehow, just need to think about it...
Ken, to increase your available tools, there is another option available that can be used for anti-triode behavior.
For ideal class A P-P operation, the sum of the currents from the B+ would be constant. For real devices, the B+ current will vary due to distortion components. By putting a current sense resistor in the B+ line, one can pick off a feedback signal at the primary center tap. Using that as neg. feedback to both sides will try to maintain constant current (WE harmonic neutralizer, or common mode feedback). Feedback to one side only will make one side anti-triode to the other, uncorrected, side. (1/2 WE harmonic neutralizer). More toys to play with.
One might even consider positive feedback on one (other) side as well. Or frequency selective. Delayed maybe? .... Screen grids convenient for such feedbacks too, but less gain.
I could put bypass caps on R2 and R3, and return unused screen currents
there instead... But emitter bypasses would need pretty big caps, and the
bypass reduces collector impedance needed to keep sandy parts invisible.
Might just need to pre-regulate for PSRR first, then shunt screen to cathode
after the threat is gone. But I'm preferring to look for a low part count trick.
Any PSRR that makes it down the shunt regs to the twin tail will take the
low impedance source back up to B+, and surely will not cancel evenly by
the slightly higher impedance cathode path.

Ditched some parts that just weren't working out...
I am thinking less now of screen current as an "error"
at the cathode to be avoided. With Schading in effect,
its a parasitic triode cathode follower of no value seen
at the plate. But would add some output via ultrapath,
so not entirely useless. Half useless is certainly better
than entirely...
The main thing to worry is still the DC balance. But I
think will be good enough, if I can make the leakage
below the cathode into R4 similar to the average leak
at the screen. Will demand some tweaking to balance
out the leaks, but perhaps the price paid for simplicity.
I think my bias into the mirror at the bottom is wrong?
Will focus on fixing that area next. Where I was gonna
be tweaking anyway... Seems obvious that R9 must be
a far larger value than R2, else very little current will be
taking the path of the mirror with the added VBE drop.
My own fault for simulating entirely by imagination,
and not throwing a proper model at this Tetrode to see
what an actual calculation might have to say about it.
1 Attachment(s)
Firstly, I find the equivalent tetrode model
I needed was probably 6v6 all along. Sub
whatever MOSFET for the moment, not yet
trying for ultimate accuracy on that side.
Also not sure bout the transformer model,
I need to measure the seconday inductance
(the primary was beyond my meter's range)
and can probably compute the rest.
Right away we got some problems more
severe than weather we have chosen the
best representative .models.
I was perhaps mistaken to think screen
currents in the ultrapath could be turned
to our advantage? Screen current at the
Cathode makes the MOSFET ultrapath
current swing wider than our Tetrode.
The MOSFET bottoms out on zero mA
before Tetrode swing is fully realized.
else we have to bias the MOSFET side
higher, and we lose some DC balance.
Or perhaps add some fake plate current
in parallel with the Tetrode to restore
the balance.
Anyways, I am getting frustrated with
all the sandy clutter at the bottom,
and looking for more elegant ways to
enforce this balance. So far, nothing...
I'll keep hammering at it.
Anti-device and side of the transformer must dump all power ripple.
Both sides don't warm up and cool down together, nor does it force
equal DC when its done. I wish transformer had separate center taps,
all sorts of quadrature feedback schemes for dynamic shaping of bias
come to mind... Predictable square law crossing of Schottky diodes
would not place much feedback on Square law beam tetrodes, only
keep them in proper bias as they age. But that's a different day with
a different transformer. Today I have a 10W 5K CXPP to work with...
Have to fudge something with existing parts.

Chow Dept. of Unsubstantiated Rumors, 15th Avenue East Edition
posted by March 13 at 13:43 PMon
Three different people this past weekend said that Lindaof everybody's old favorite faux-Western bar Linda's Tavern on Pine, everybody's new favorite faux-Western bar King's Hardware in Ballard, and '70s playboy-lounge Viceroy in Belltownis opening a place on 15th. It's unclear where, however, and no new or transferred liquor license application can be found. Speculation about the location tends toward the Cypress site (but would the proprietors, who also run Nectar, give up so quickly?) and the Rainbow Grocery space (the shelves have been suspiciously empty off and on in recent weeks). If the new place ("Linda's King's"?) has good brunch, which it likely will, there will be much rejoicing on the top of the Hill.
[A non15th Avenue East aside: That lamp made out of a big hoof at Viceroy is the best lamp in town.]
Also: The big sale50% off many, many booksat Horizon Books does not mean they're closing, according to a gentleman working there this past weekend, though those who would whine about independent businesses and our fair city as a whole going to hell in a handbasket if they did go out of business should go buy some books there instead of ordering from Amazon.

Juan Ignacio Martinez has conceded that his team's win was a 'very important' one, whilst Miroslav Djukic was hesitant to blame anyone for the defeat.
A late own-goal from Antonio Rukavina gave the Granotes the three points at Ciutat de Valencia, but the 48-year-old has claimed that either team could have won the game.
"It was an important victory for us," he told a Press conference. "It is always difficult to win in La Liga and I have to congratulate Real Valladolid for the efforts they made.
"Anyone could have won this game, it just so happened that luck fell on our side."
The Serbian Coach meanwhile did want to talk down anyone after the final whistle.
"I cannot blame anyone or anything," he told a Press conference. "We were true to our ideas, our style of play.
"My team has played well. We have not been rewarded with any points and more work is definitely needed.
"We did many good things in the game, but we've lost a game that we should not have lost."

Finally, there is a solution available for the iOS devices big ristrication i.e. syncing multiple iTunes Libraries. This limitation also force users to complies all of their songs by placing them on one PC in iTunes. Although there are many other solution availbale for this limitation including adding music to your device manually from iTunes but its not quite popular and permanent solution. Now MultiTunes Cydia tweak has been released for jailbroken devices which allows users to sync iPhone, iPod touch and iPad with multiple iTunes libraries.
Release notes from Cydia:
From the creator of MyTube, MultiTunes is an app that allows you to sync with as many iTunes libraries as you want!
MultiTunes Cydia tweak works in a way that it creates profiles for each of your various iTunes libraries on different computers. You can add more libraries using the + symbol on the top right of the screen. Whenever you connect your iDevice to a new PC with a new iTunes library, you can give the library a name and sync it with your device. This library will be synced without touching previously synced libraries.
If you want give it a try then MultiTunes Cydia tweak available in Cydia and can be downloaded from bigBoos repo for free.

This plugin provides RewriteRules middleware for the Grunt Connect / Express. Which could be used to redirect (rewrite internally or redirect using HTTP codes) User to the specific URL based on RegExp Rules.
In case you like this plugin it makes sense to look at http-rewrite-middleware as more flexible alternative.
This plugin requires Grunt
If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:
npm install grunt-connect-rewrite --save-dev
{from: '__from__', to: '__to__'[, redirect: 'permanent'|'temporary']}
__from__ - RegExp string to match.
__to__ - String that replaces matched URL.
redirect - Optional parameter:
Location Header with value of parsed
__to__ (
permanent value will give
HTTP 301, any other value will give
Default value:
You can specify grunt config section from which Rules will be read, like so:
In your project's Gruntfile:
rewriteRequest snippet.
rules to your existing Connect or Express definition.
Please note: unlike options, rules cannot be set per server, so the
rules attribute must always be nested directly under
connect or
configureRewriteRules before the web server task.
var rewriteRulesSnippet = rewriteRequest;grunt grunt;grunt; // "configureRewriteRules" should be before the "connect"/"express" task grunt;
In order to debug Rules you need to run grunt with a
--verbose command-line option this will enable logging of matched rules.
The message will explain which
__from__ rule was matched and what was the result of the rewrite.
In lieu of a formal styleguide, take care to maintain the existing coding style. Add unit tests for any new or changed functionality. Lint and test your code using Grunt.
v0.2.1 Add logging support
v0.2.0 Add support for Browser's redirects (HTTP 301/302)
v0.1.1 Add possibility to read settings from custom grunt config path
v0.1.0 Initial Release

Lubbock, Texas – As eight teams load up and head to Omaha to continue the quest for the College Baseball National Championship, eight players are named as semi-finalists for the Brooks Wallace National Player of Year Award. College baseball has produced a fine class of young men to represent the "Wallace Watch" from the pre-season release to where it stands today.
"I am proud of the committee and selections they have made through the season," said Brooks Wallace Award Chair, Raymond Richardson. "The eight young men in contention for the Wallace Award are exactly what we look for to represent the work ethic and character that Brooks Wallace possessed."
The Wallace Award will be presented among the legends of college baseball – the 2008 College Baseball Hall of Fame inductees. It is presented annually to the nation's top collegiate baseball player and will be nationally televised on Fox College Sports.
The 2008 award banquet will be held on Wednesday, July 2, at 6:30 p.m. in the Lubbock Memorial Civic Center. Information regarding the sale of individual tickets, as well as group and corporate tables, is available by calling (806) 777 – 8277 or through the College Baseball Foundation website at www.collegebaseballfoundation.org.
The finalists, their head coaches and parents will be invited to Lubbock from July 2-4 to participate in the College Baseball Foundation's "Past Meets Present" celebration of college baseball. The 2008 College Baseball Hall of Fame Inductees will also be present for the three days of festivities.
The Wallace Award is a dedication to the memory of the former Texas Tech player and assistant coach Brooks Wallace. Wallace was a slick-fielding shortstop at Texas Tech from 1977 to 1980. A four-year starter, he was named All-Southwest Conference and All-District his senior year. He led the Red Raiders to their first-ever appearance in the Southwest Conference Tournament in 1980. After playing two years in the Texas Rangers organization, he returned to Texas Tech and served as a graduate assistant and later as an assistant coach. In the summer of 1984, he was diagnosed with cancer and fought the disease courageously until his death on March 24, 1985, at age 27. The Plano, TX, native was married to the former Sandy Arnold and they had one daughter, Lindsay Ryan.
Past winners included Kurt Suzuki of Cal State Fullerton (2004), Alex Gordon of Nebraska (2005), and Brad Lincoln of Houston (2006). Last year's winner was the number one choice in Major League Baseball's 2007 First-Year Player Draft, David Price of Vanderbilt.
Revised 2008 Wallace Watch List
Yonder Alonso – Miami
Dustin Ackley – North Carolina
Gordon Beckham – Georgia
Sawyer Carroll – Kentucky
Aaron Crow – Missouri
Brian Matusz – San Diego
Buster Posey – Florida State
Brett Wallace – Arizona St.

Base hits
Phil Perry's Top 10 baseball teams
(Listed with final 2011 record)
1. Lexington (21-1): After the Minutemen's tourney quest was cut short after an undefeated regular season, senior captains Chris Shaw (below) and Nick Murray are determined to make a deep run this spring.
2. St. John's High (19-8): Senior hurlers Anthony Perry and Mike Badjo will lead a strong pitching staff for the Pioneers.
3. Acton-Boxborough Regional (18-6): Seniors Ryan McDonald and Thulani Denaro will make life tough for Dual County League hitters, and the addition of senior Peter Sikalis will strengthen a lineup that hopes to make a run at the league title.
4. Milford (16-5): Senior three-sport star Jarrod Casey will be a terror on the base paths for Steve Manguso's squad, which took an early exit from last year's Division 1 Central tournament.
5. Lincoln-Sudbury Regional (24-2): The Warriors will have to overcome early injuries to win their 12th straight DCL championship and defend their Division 1 state title.
6. Nashoba Regional (14-8): Charlie Butler, a 6-foot-3 righthander who is headed to Maine, could be dominant in Division 1 Central after throwing a no-hitter in his first start of the season, a 5-0 win over Gardner.
7. Franklin (16-9): The Panthers made a surprising run in last year's Division 1 tournament before falling to eventual champ Lincoln-Sudbury in the Eastern Mass. final, and they have lefty ace Tyler Buck back to lead the pitching staff.
8. Wellesley (16-6): Senior lefty Tim Superko will be one of the best pitchers in the Bay State Conference, and sophomore righty Conor Russell could turn some heads on the mound.
9. Newton South (13-9): Senior first baseman John Jennings, who has committed to play at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, will anchor the Tigers lineup.
10. Medfield (18-5): The Warriors lost experienced pitching to graduation, but second baseman Will Cousins will highlight what could be a strong offensive team in Division 3 South.
Players to watch
▸Dan Cellucci (below), Lincoln-Sudbury: The shortstop, a Bryant recruit, helped lead the Warriors to the Division 1 state title last spring with a .536 batting average.
▸Mike Marshall, Maynard: Also headed to Bryant, the senior will do damage both in the batter's box and on the mound and could be in line for his third straight MVP award in the Midland Wachusett League's D Division.
▸Ryan McDonald, Acton-Boxborough: Another future Bryant Bulldog, the senior lefty put together a 0.90 earned-run average last year for the Colonials.
▸Chris Shaw, Lexington: The 6-foot-4, 235-pound senior Boston College recruit hit .486 with 8 home runs last season, and attracted pro scouts to Minutemen scrimmages this spring.
▸Max Tishman, Lawrence Academy: The lefty Wake Forest recruit has added 30 pounds to his frame after going 5-0 with a 1.70 ERA last season.

Camps & Special Events
Super Center Arts Camp
In 1996, MSCR developed the Super Center Arts Camp and since then over 10,000 youth entering grades 1-5 have participated! In many ways Super Center is like the perfect summer day camp program because it includes swimming, field trips, and outdoor activities. But! It has a special difference in that it has an emphasis on the Arts. Participants are grouped by age and rotate through music, drama and art each day, all revolving around a weekly theme. This camp is great for children who would prefer to have more exposure to music, art and drama than a general camp provides. Field trips or special performances usually take place on Fridays. Extended day option consists of quiet games, self-directed art activities and supervised outdoor play.
Fascination Station
Fascination Station Camps are half-day programs for elementary-aged youth providing in-depth exposure to specific topics in a fun, enriching environment. Camps are designed to provide a wide variety of fascinating choices for campers during the course of the summer. Campers are encouraged to explore their interests and passions. Each week offers at least one morning and one afternoon camp choice for participants. All camps are led by experienced instructors passionate about the topics they are exploring. Individual camp structures vary based on the nature of the program, but generally include both large and small group activities developing continuity throughout the week. All campers have the option of signing up for Lunch Bunch between camps each week. New this year, extended before and after camp hours. Morning campers may be dropped off anytime between 8 - 9 am. Afternoon campers may be picked up between 4 - 5 pm. Extended hours consist of quiet games, arts & crafts and supervised free play.
Family Arts Workshops
Join us family arts workshops. Create different arts and crafts projects with your children. Register each child separately. One parent or caregiver per family must attend.

Internet Helps You to Hunt Reliable and Good Electrician
Here few points to consider when choosing or find electrician. Their contacts are displayed on the website and can be used for the enjoyment. These six things are common for all plumbers merchant and not, in particular, or electricians or landscapers or painters or pest controllers or gardeners, in particular. The 6 guidelines to find and employ a electrician are:-
Ability or quality-Any trader would or should be known for its ability. To judge a skill is difficult (yes, the merchant is not going to audition for you!). However, a merchant account work may be a witness. The references of previous work can be ordered from the merchant. Ideally, in the case of larger projects. (The light of a new upstairs to an electrician, etc.).
Dependability- Its other key unless you want to end cheap quality products or products used for works or do not want to become deceived by paying much more than its worth. Once again, the past is always an ideal reference, along with other references, if possible.
Financial plan - Your budget actually comes first. No? Whether it's a plumber or an electrician or a gardener or a gardener or a pest controller or painter, make sure that "estimate" given to you and make sure it is well within your budget. Keep a supply of 10% of its budget for the possibility of an increase in the total.
Time constraints - This is also very important. What if you need the work to be done for a couple of weeks and the dealer take a month for the same job? Ensure that the period of time. "To discuss and decide" is the guide here.
Flexibility - the flexibility of the merchant is very important too. Whether plumbers or electricians or landscapers or painters or pest controllers or gardeners, some flexibility is needed them and their work (in relation to finance, quality, changes, etc.).
Talk to them about it before hand.
Word of mouth - ask locally to see if someone recommends a good electrician. If the same name still appears then most likely be trusted in the community and be a safe bet.
Follow these steps and get in position to select a local electrician. If you follow the above advice while looking for a good electrician I am sure will definitely find a good and a reputed one. Following these tips and suggestions being put in a better position to make a clear decision on which electrician is going to work on and complete their projects home wiring. Know they have a great experience to ensure that all electrical codes are met or exceeded for your project can be sure to find an electrician in Brisbane.
So the next time you need plumbers or electricians or painters or pest controllers or landscapers can just take things above into consideration and have a hassle-free experience with the merchant. These steps will definitely help you find Brisbane electrician much easily.

Also I Am Getting Ready To Tear Down My K321 Need Advice

You can download the factory rebuilding manual for free here. Follow the instructions and foot notes very carefully and you will get an engine that will give you 2000 hours of normal use. If you are planning to use it for high performance competition then you are into a very confusing area. There will be many conflicting opinions on performance parts. I don't compete so I go stock. Good Luck, Rick
Posted February 25, 2013 - 05:26 PM
The JD 314 does not use the balance gears. The way they dealt with the vibration was to set the idle at 2200 rpms so the motor mounts would not be excited by the vibration of the motor. If you try to idle one at a low RPM it will shake the tin right off the tractor.
Posted February 25, 2013 - 07:11 PM
I always take them out. Like Brian said, just set the idle a tad higher & all will be fine, and NO worries about balance gears putting a picture window in your block.
Posted February 25, 2013 - 09:07 PM
I pulled mine, you have to remove the crank to get the top one out, and you need a good set of snap ring pliers, and a good bar magnet (to get the pin bearings when they fall out). I didn't ballance anything. I do not know how the 321 runs with them in, but I had to replace all the rubber motor mounts, and have one mount welded, so it must have some serious vibration with them. Here is it without the ballance gears. A little shake on start up and shut down, that's all I noticed.

My 1979 vintage 444 had no factory balance gears when I tore it down for a rebuild.
When balance gears matter, its at idle. The higher the rpm, the less influential the balance set.
Idle quality was the objector back in the day...

Here is what it was when I got it I will take some pics as I go thru the motor I like the tractor alot its got more power at half throttle than any tractor I have ever owned I have my paint, new decal kit, its already got a new seat on it I ordered my parts I am looking forward to this build. And I am going to try and get it painted up stickered up I got a sweet set of glass halogen headlights that are 1/2" taller and 3/4" wider than stock lites and I am goin to mount them right behind my stock holes should be much brighter than stock. I want to get some pics up of it getting done we are going to get 8" of snow tonight and I am bummed as I wont be able to plow but I will get ur done soon
Looking forward to your progress, as far as the lights, they are going to get hot, might want to think about some
stick on insulation, to protect hood paint. Good luck
