Located 145 km north of Pontianak , capital of West Kalimantan, Singkawang is the second largest city in the province, bordering the State of Sarawak, Malaysia. Unlike other towns in Indonesia, Singkawang has a distinct oriental atmosphere with hundreds of Chinese temples found around almost every corner of town. This is because over 70% of Singkawang's population is of Chinese descent, predominantly of the Hakka tribe with some Teochew. Others are Malays, Dayaks and other Indonesian ethnic groups.
In the 18th century, West Borneo lured many from mainland China to the gold mines at Monterado (today called the Bengkayang district). The Chinese came by the thousands, and on their way there they used to overnight in Singkawang. Most settled here and their descendents today form the majority population of Singkawang.
One of the oldest temples here is the Tri Dharma Bumi Raya temple , established in 1878 dedicated to the god of the forest, or Tua Peh Kong.
Normally a quiet city, Singkawang comes alive each Chinese New Year, reaching its climax at Cap Goh Meh, or the fifteenth day of Chinese New Year, closing the celebrations. For this event, Chinese from around the region, including those from Java and Sumatra but also from Singapore and Malaysia flock to Singkawang to celebrate the event with family and friends.
During these celebrations the Tatung or Chinese shamans will perform their supernatural prowess to the thousands gathered along the streets, while remaining totally unharmed. However, before performing their feats they first pray for blessing at the temple of Toa Peh Kong. (Tatungs are people endowed with supernatural powers performing during the Cap Go Meh Festival in Singkawang, 'the city of a thousand shrines', in West Kalimantan. Two of the tatungs are seen bending a sharp sword with their abdomen, remaining completely unharmed.)
Singkawang is also famous for its Chinese ceramics, still produced in the old style with "antique" designs. Center for ceramics is at Sa Kok, some 7 km. from Singkawang. Ceramics made in Singkawang is very popular on Java and can be bought in many parts of Jakarta and Surabaya.

As you probably just guessed, this Instructable will show you how to convert a Gorm shelving unit into a bookshelf bench. With a few extra peices of hardware and a couple of basic power tools, you could be on your way to relaxation and organization all at the same time.
Step 1: Go get stuff
(x1) Gorm shelving unit
(x1) 2x4
(x1) 92.75" x 12" x 3/4" piece of plywood (I inherited an awesome piece of bamboo plywood for this project)
(x16) 3/8" Crossdowels
(x16) Bolts 2-1/2" (to fit crossdowels)
(x8) 2" woodscrews
(x1) 50 feet of rope
(x1) A tape measure and pencil
(x1) Circular saw
(x1) Sanding block and/or sandpaper
(x1) Power drill, 3/32" and 3/8" drill bit
(x1) Assorted hand tools
Fabric, foam and stuff for a cushion - see Step 13
Nice post,Everyone , I just thought I'd let you know you can have a talented hacker get your jobs done for you , whatever you need done , reach him on email@example.com , let him know Maria told you
Dope flat pack hack you've done there! The crooked bookshelf you've assembled has turned out look absolutely awesome! Montage looks clean and stable, all steps are clear and easy to follow. This is how you do furniture assembly the right way! I myself would personally even change to bookshelf colour but RAW is beautiful as well!
Kind Regards!
Fantastic Furniture Assembly
DOpe instructable!
Ikea assembly services can only envy you!
Nice job mate!
You could be a pro!
hahaha best assistant ever!
Great job !
I Made it. Nice solution. Thanks.
I didn't see the finished size anywhere (maybe i didnt look hard enough ;)
Seems 92.75"W x 18.25"H x 12"D to me...
Could you let me know for certain? Thanks!
Im from France and I have to convert all those measures to european system.
Anyone knows what size of lumber in centimeters is a "2x4" ?
Is it 1.5 in × 3.5 in so 3,8 cm × 8,9 cm ?
"Cut four 12.25" lengths of 2x4."
Is that correct or should it be 12 inches? Just want to be perfectly correct in this hack.
-The variable spacing of the holes in the ikea planks used makes this unlevel on the floor.
-A "cross dowel" costs, literally, $1 at Home Depot. These 16 parts cost half the shelving unit.
-Without a drill press, you cannot guarantee your holes will go in straight, therefore you either redrill old wood, redrill new wood, or accept that 1/4 of your 2x4 supports are half supported
-The variable spacing of the holes in the ikea planks used makes this the wrong height on the top for a sheet of 3/4" plywood, and only revealed when complete how each is differently too long.
-Cutting plywood to be the legs without a chop-saw is unrealistic. Luckily I had access to one.
-2 1/2" bolts are too short. 3" bolts fit perfectly. Another trip to Home Depot to switch them out. As for those cute flat bolts that use a hex key to screw in, those are also very expensive and hard to find at length. I had to use generics which I fear will tear up the legs of those sitting on the bench.
Suggestions for anyone about to build this:
-Get some good wood screws and predrill your 2x4s for that, not the cross dowel debacle. Muuuuuch cheaper, and flatter. No need for crossing the holes.
-Use a chop saw for the 2x4 cutting and if you can have the store rip your plywood, do it. Hand guiding a circular saw is not easy or accurate.
-If you're some super cool woodworking pro, have at the original instructions.
Thats all. Still a welcome education but there will be a lot of work trying to fix this so nobody gets hurt.
A 3/8" hole is much larger than you actually need for the bolt and drilling a straight hole for the nut halfway down through a 2x4 I didn't find particularly challenging as you are only going down about an inch at most.
Even if the hole that you drill in to meet the nut isn't perfectly straight, assuming that you pay attention to what you are doing to begin with, sink the nut in straight, and the bolt ultimately meets the nut, the angle at which the channel is drilled is irrelevant. The bolt is only going to screw into the nut at a right angle (give or take a tiny bit).
And then, assuming that even a bolt or two is sunk in crooked and two adjacent bolts are at mildly different right angles, when fastened to the leg, considering the softness of the wood and the tension created by fastening the bolt tightly, this will only be a problem insofar as your bench will not look pretty as some screw head will appear to be sunk in mildly crooked. I don't see how you figure them to be half supported.
I didn't buy cross dowels at Home Depot as they are too expensive. Home Depot deals mainly in moving mass quantities of generic goods and not specialty items such as cross dowels.
If I remember correctly, I spent about $15, give or take, on the hardware and bought full boxes of both the screws and the nuts, which was way more than I needed. If you are interested in saving money you can shop at your local independent hardware store, like I did, or order online from McMaster-Carr.
You can also use wood screws and washers as you suggested, but, in my opinion, it slightly changes the aesthetic and I felt it would be stronger if I used cross dowels.
If you don't have a chop saw, you can use a circular saw or jig saw. If you are not confident enough to measure and cut the semblance of a straight line on your own, you can use C-clamps and a piece of scrap wood to create a guide for the saw. Claiming it is unrealistic to use anything but a chop saw is silly because I did just that and it turned out fine.
I don't have a giant shop at my disposal with drill presses and chop saws, but a modicum of power tools. It was not my goal here to teach anyone basic woodworking skills, but to show how I went about making this bench
Drilling a straight hole can be difficult, but you can buy inexpensive alignment jigs that will attach to a power hand drill and will let you drill straight holes at any desired angle for under $30 US.
Ditto on the cross-dowels vs. wood screws. Especially if this becomes a bench with folks sitting on it. It's like using mini bed hanger bolts.
Nice Instructable, randofo. I'm having a bit of circ saw envy, though. ;)
Also, instead of using cross dowels, you can use a wood dowel and a wood screw. (I recommend Kreg screws.) Just drill a hole the diameter of the dowel through the narrow width of the board and glue in a length of dowel to fill the hole. Make sure you are only about an inch or so from the end of the board so that your screws are long enough to go through the dowel. The dowel is stronger than the end grain and will give you good holding strength. If you use kreg screws make sure you only drill a small pilot hole to guide the screw. Don't drill a hole the same diameter of the screw or it won't have any wood for the threads to grip.
Thanks again.
Check out lumberjocks.com and popularwoodworking.com. Lots of good info from men and women.
You could also just buy wth wire braces that Ikea sell for these units.
I've got to ask about those speakers though!

Day 1 Hong Kong
Arrive at any time. As fellow group members will be arriving throughout the day there are no planned activities until the group meeting at 6PM, followed by dinner. On arrival please check the notice board in the hotel entrance for details of the time and place of the meeting.
Day 2 Hong Kong/China border
Visit Stanley Market or Nathan Road for some shopping or catch the views of Hong Kong from Victoria Peak. Leave in the early afternoon of Day 2, catching the cross-border train to Shenzhen to board an overnight train bound for Guilin in Guangxi Province (approximately 13 hours). Train is your main mode of transport in China and a great way to travel.
Day 3-6 Yangshuo
Arrive in Guilin in the early morning and transfer to a local public bus for the 1½ hour journey to the small country town of Yangshuo. The Li River and the limestone karst mountains interspersed with picturesque riverside villages and markets make this area perhaps the best known scenic attraction in China. *Please note: if you have pre-booked the China Cultural Theme Pack your CEO will inform you when you will see each show throughout your tour: Li River Light Show (Yangshuo), Acrobat Performance (Shanghai) and the Shaolin Kung Fu Show (Beijing). On Day 6 we take an afternoon bus to Guilin train station for the overnight train to Wuchang (approximately 21hrs).
Day 7-9 Yichang/Three Gorges Dam & Xiling Gorge (1L)
On Day 7, arrive in Wuchang and take a fast train to Yichang. Yichang has a very local feel, with great backstreets and alleyways with quaint tea houses and temples for exploring. It is renowned for its tea and fruit, all of which can be see on the street stalls. There is a great local food market where people can find prickly ash, hot pepper and chili powder, which are amongst the ingredients that add a local flavour to most dishes. Both an inspiration to generations of painters and poets and a source of international controversy, the Three Gorges remains one of the world's natural scenic wonders while the massive Three Gorges Dam is an incredible feat of modern technology. Board a boat on the morning of Day 8 and cruise along the Yangtze River to view both the Xiling Gorge and the Three Gorges Dam. On Day 9, enjoy a free morning to explore Yichang before we take an overnight train to Xi'an (approx 17hrs).
Day 10-12 Xi'an
Xi'an was once one of China's imperial capital. On Day 10, enjoy an orientation walk to get familiar with the Muslim Quarter. Spend almost 3 full days exploring the active Muslim Quarter and its serene Great Mosque as well as the exotic local street food stalls and the majestic Ming Dynasty City Wall. A trip to the famous Terracotta Warriors is a highly recommended optional excursion Xi'an. These life-size, 2000-year-old statues were formerly housed in underground vaults until discovered by a farmer in 1974. In the early evening of Day 12 catch an overnight train to Shanghai (approximately 17hrs).
Day 13-15 Shanghai
Blending 21st century architecture with old-world character, Shanghai is the vibrant pulse of new China. Arrive at noon, enjoy an orientation walk along the Bund, with its spectacular array of art deco-style buildings. The afternoon is free to explore, go across the river where you can take in the sights of Pudong - a modern financial centre - with its amazing skyscrapers. Explore the busy Yuyuan Bazaar, the French Concession, or shop 'til you drop in China's hippest stores! There is enough to see in the impressive Shanghai Museum to spend half, if not a whole, day exploring. It houses one of the best collections of Chinese bronze and artwork. Try to catch a performance by the famous Shanghai Acrobats one night. Enjoy a free time to explore on Day 15, in the early evening take an overnight train to Beijing (approximately 17hrs).
Day 16-17 Beijing
Arrive early in the morning which allows for plenty of time to visit the numerous important sights in this giant city - Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City and the Temple of Heaven. The back-street hutongs, packed full of local shops and restaurants are a world away from the imperial splendors, but also part of this energetic city. Use your free time to explore at your leisure before heading off to the Great Wall on the morning of Day 17.
Day 18 Beijing
Depart any time.

EPIC! Sarah Palin Shredded, Called Americas Resident Dunce by Normally Mild-Mannered Bashir (Video)
Progressive Populist
November 16. 2013
MSNBCs Martin Bashir is normally a pretty docile, mild-mannered guy on his show, so when he visibly was upset while discussing Sarah Palin (R-Moose) during his Friday afternoon show, you knew he meant business.
As you may have heard, Palin compared the national debt to slavery earlier this week.
Of course, Palin claims that her use of the word slavery was not implying *that* kind of slavery. But according to her own definition of the word, she was.
In an interview with Jake Tapper, she was asked if people might misinterpret her use of the word. Here was her response:
Um, maybe I misunderstood my history books, but did slaves in this country choose their masters? Funny, I thought it was the other way around. They must teach a different kind of history in the schools that Sarah Palin attended.
"There is another definition of slavery and that is being beholden to some kind of master that is not of your choosing. And, yes, the national debt will be like slavery when the note comes due"
Anyway, Bashir came out with both barrels blazing at Palin, first calling her Americas resident dunce and describing her comments as scraping the barrel of her long-deceased mind, and using her all-time favorite analogy in an attempt to sound intelligent about the national debt.
He then played the clip of Palin as she made her inane comment to a doting crowd at the Faith and Coalition Event in Iowa.
It will be like slavery, Bashir repeated. Given her well-established reputation as a world class idiot, its hardly surprising that she should choose to mention slavery in a way that is abominable to anyone who knows anything about its barbaric history.
"Our free stuff today is being paid for by taking money from our children, and borrowing from China. When that note comes due and this isnt racist, so try it. Try it anyway. This isnt racist. But its going to be like slavery when that note is due"
Bashir then discussed the barbaric history of slavery, specifically a first-person account from a man named Thomas Thistlewood, who kept a diary about the horrible treatment and discipline of the slaves he and his family owned. Bashir says, In 1756, he records that a slave named Darby catched eating kanes had him well flogged and pickled, then made Hector, another slave, s-h-*-t in his mouth.
Bashir concluded by saying, When Mrs. Palin invokes slavery, she doesnt just prove her rank ignorance. She confirms if anyone truly qualified for a dose of discipline from Thomas Thistlewood, she would be the outstanding candidate.
In other words, Palin deserves to have her mouth s-*-*-t in.
BOOM! Roasted.

Narrow your search
The Japan-based company now owns 73 percent of Supercell, hoping to ride the coattails of success in mobile gaming.
CEO Masayoshi Son is reportedly in talks to acquire the studio behind animated films "Shrek" and "How to Train Your Dragon."
Japanese telecom giant SoftBank has never sold a product from Sony's Xperia line of smartphones and tablets, so this would be a first.
The company on Thursday unveils a new "humanoid" robot named Pepper that can not only communicate with the user, but also read his or her emotions.
The Internet is run by a cable monopoly in Comcast and a wireless duopoly in Verizon and AT&T, Son says. He wants to shake things up.
Nikesh Arora, who previously served as chief business officer at Google, will lend some of his tech experience to the struggling wireless carrier.
Masayoshi Son, who is also CEO of a Japanese carrier, says the network quality in the US "is not something you should be proud of," and directly calls out his rivals.
Alternative Investment Management & Research pictures a Yahoo-SoftBank merger, with the latter's CEO running the combined company.
Yahoo Japan, partly owned by SoftBank and Yahoo, plans to use the acquisition to launch its own mobile Internet service.
Masayoshi Son, who'll be pitching US policymakers Tuesday to consider a stronger wireless industry to vie with broadband, might need T-Mobile to achieve his ultimate goals.

DIY: A Simple Guide to Beer Brewing for Seasonal Ale Lovers
What You'll Need:
- 5 gallon pot
- Bottling bucket
- Fermentation bucket or glass carboy (carboys are more expensive, but will last longer)
- Tubing
- Clamp for the tubing
- Stopper
- Auto-siphon
- Hydrometer
- False Bottom
- Glass beer bottles (collect bottles from craft brews you've recently enjoyed, just make sure they are not twist-off)
- Caps for the bottles
- Capper
- Bottling wand
- Iodophor (for sanitizing: You must sanitize everything your beer is going to touch. This includes tubing, bottling bucket, bottles, caps, siphon…everything)
If you don't have a local homebrewing store like San Francisco's Brewcraft, you can get everything you'll need online. Try Homebrewing.org's Basic Homebrewing Kit and make sure to add a five gallon brew pot, long stem thermometer, and auto-siphon to your shopping list.
Step 1: Finding a recipe
Just like gardening, fermenting beer turns out best when you match the style to its season. This means starting your winter ales in the first months of fall, and your autumn beers in summertime. Holiday Ales, Stouts, Porters, and other dark beers, Winter Wheats, Smoked Rauchbier, and Scotch Ales are all good candidates for winter, but some folks also enjoy dark beers year-round. A batch started now would be ready to drink in late summer or early fall, or in mid-winter for those of you in the southern hemisphere.
Smoked beers date back to the 1500s and to the district of Franconia in Germany, where it is known as Rauchbier ("rauch" is German for smoke). It is typically of dark color and has similarities of the Oktoberfestbier. Malts, dried over an open fire of beech wood, impart a bold smoky character. The smoked porter is an acquired taste, and therefore not a very common craft brew style (this writer loves it).
Step 2: Ingredients
Like most things, beer is only be as good as what goes into it. Water, yeast, hops, and malted barley. Additionally, you may include honey, fruit juice, molasses, cane, and other sugars. Introducing more sugar in this secondary fermentation increases the carbonation and influences the finished flavor of the beer. The Smoked Molasses Porter recipe below is a Kevin Koenig original.
|7.80 lb
|Pale Malt (2 Row) US (2.0 SRM)
|57.35 %
|2.50 lb
|Smoked Malt (9.0 SRM)
|18.38 %
|0.85 lb
|Chocolate Malt (450.0 SRM)
|6.25 %
|0.60 lb
|Barley, Flaked (1.7 SRM)
|4.41 %
|0.50 lb
|Caramel/Crystal Malt – 60L (60.0 SRM)
|3.68 %
|0.50 lb
|Caramel/Crystal Malt – 80L (80.0 SRM)
|3.68 %
|0.30 lb
|Black (Patent) Malt (500.0 SRM)
|2.21 %
|1.10 oz
|Challenger [8.00 %] (60 min)
|0.30 oz
|Goldings, East Kent (whole) [7.00 %] (15 min)
|0.55 lb
|Molasses (80.0 SRM)
|4.04 %
Thousands of beers are made with virtually the same method. A simple switch of your specialty grains, change of the hop or mash profile, or a different strain of yeast will alter the brew. Beyond that there's a world of spices, fruits, honeys, and sugars to further influence your beer. Even if you aren't interested in a Smoked Molasses Porter, the following instructions will let you in on the quest for the perfect seasonal homebrew. With many forums and blogs out there, it should be no trouble to find a recipe that better suits your tastes. I have listed a few great resources at the end of this article to aid in that endeavor. Otherwise, locate your various grains, hops, and malts and get started!

Step 3: Making the mash
The point of the mash is to get sugar from the grain. Malted grains contain starch and heating them creates the enzymes that convert this starch in sugar. These sugars will feed the yeast, which will produce alcohol and carbon dioxide in the beer. The grain will also give your beer its flavor and color.
If you follow this recipe, you will be making a single infusion, medium body mash:
Heat 13 quarts of water to 178 degrees. The standard is 1 quart of water per pound of grain (Smoked Molasses Porter calls for 13.05 pounds of grain).
Add all the grains (the temperature will drop by about 10 degrees, that's okay).
Maintain the mash at 168 degrees for 90 minutes (this varies for every recipe; lighter beers mash around 150 degrees). Stir every ten minutes and take the temperature from various points in the pot. The bottom will get hotter than the top, and you don't want your grains to scorch. Also, it is not necessary to keep the burner on the entire time. You can wrap the covered pot in a towel to help retain heat and let the mash sit.
Step 4: Sparge the wort
Now that the heated water has helped convert the starch into sugars, you need to remove the sugar water called wort—this is done in the sparge and lautering process. Prepare by heating five gallons of water to 170 degrees.
Make a lauter ton by attaching the false bottom to the stopper and hose. Fit the stopper into the bottling bucket and clamp the hose. Next, fill the bucket with three inches of 170 degree water. Then, pour the mash out slowly to avoid and a "stuck sparge". Rinse the mash by circulating hot water through it, slowly. Unclamp the hose and collect the wort in the brew pot. Keep rinsing the mash until the liquid runs clear (two gallons of heated water should do it).
Step 5: The boil
Heat up the wort you just collected to its boiling point, stir occasionally, and keep the boil going until it starts to foam. Reduce the heat so the pot doesn't boil over. A vigorous boil will cause more water to evaporate (meaning less beer later), and it will caramelize sugars for a sweeter beer with less alcohol.
Step 6: Add hops
Now it's time to add the hops. Hops account for the bittering, aroma, and flavor of a good beer. Each type of hops is added at a different stage in the boil. The boil will last for 60-90 minutes depending on the gravity of the beer (higher gravity means more time in the boil). The first 60 minutes (lighter brews call for 45 minutes) is dedicated to your bittering hops. In the Smoked Molasses Porter, these are Challenger hops. Then come the flavoring hops (Goldings, East Kent) for 15 minutes, and finally 5-10 minutes of finishing hops. As sophisticated as Smoked Molasses Porter is, it doesn't call for finishing hops, the recipe needs the bitterness of the boiling hops to offset the sweetness of molasses, which is introduced at this stage.

Also, Smith isn't really a good coverage CB. Go back and look at the Luck to TY Hilton TD in our game against them. Rodney Harrison rightly called Smith's coverage on that play "garbage defense." He gave up both of the TD passes and many other key first downs in that game too.
That's why I said one of the reasons, not the only one. Our defense, and secondary in particular, are not good enough to get the job done, especially come playoff time. After all, half of our defense's INTs came against Kevin Kolb and Mark Sanchez. A telling stat.I disagree, we are 7-9 because we cant put up enough points on offense due to having limited low talent in our WR core. Our defense played well enough to where this team could have went 10-6 and made the playoffs.

Miami should have traded Sean smith to Indy instead of vontae.
Players need to stay off Twitter does more harm then good
If he would only play like he talks, we would have one less problem on this team. Sadly he will probably get more than he's worth.
I hate the "Yeah let's create more holes on this team argument", yes, because we've been so good the past 4 years right? 7 wins each year with these guys. These guys can't win. We're no worse without them than we are with them. So your argument is we should pay everyone just because we can't do better? That's cool, that means Ireland is a pretty bad GM then.
Tannehill and his offense will be the difference between whether we become relevant or not. Not Sean Smith, I have seen cornerbacks just as good or better starting in the playoffs than Sean Smith and they're not asking for the money Smith wants.

Great tire in the mud, haven't been stuck yet. Fair on the trails, just watch out for large sticks they like to through them up into the finders. Not that great on dry sugar sand roads, tend to dig in and slow you down.

Put my quad and these tires through the most extreme, with mud holes and slippery clay hill climes while raining. I did not slow down! Watched some tires with larger lugs suffer while I pass. These tires pulled me through the worst! Two thumbs up with me! Impressed! It even held up in hard packed terrain....love them..

Comments On Sep 02, 2014:Wow! My Mudlite XL tires were great! but didnt want to give up what I had. These tires do what the XL's did and more. They do give up a little deep mud to the XL's but the ride on the rest of the trail more than makes up for it. After all, there is more trail riding here in Warsaw, NY than mud holes. A great swap.

I have not felt any difference in handling since installing these and I have yet to puncture these tires. They get lots of compliments from fellow riders. They laugh when they get covered in MUD when driving behind me. Best tires in my opinion.

The Monaco GP promised so much for Lewis Hamilton, but he will leave the Principality upset at Nico Rosberg and upset at Mercedes' strategy...
The Monaco GP promised so much for Lewis Hamilton, but he will leave the Principality upset at Nico Rosberg and upset at Mercedes' strategy.
Having won the previous four races, starting three of them in pole position, Hamilton had to settle for second best during qualifying as team-mate Rosberg got the better of him.
However, all was not hunky-dory in the Mercedes garage on Saturday evening as Hamilton mentioned that he might take his revenge on the track a la Ayrton Senna-Alain Prost style after he was forced to pull out of a final lap in qualifying following a mistake from Rosberg.
While Rosberg eased to the chequered flag for his second Monaco win in a row, Hamilton just about managed to hold onto second place with Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo not far behind him.
Having been less than a second behind Rosberg for most of the race, the 2008 World Champion reported a problem with his eye on lap 58 and he lost plenty of time.
Although he later clarified that his revenge comments were "a joke", he felt he was hard done by Mercedes' strategy after they failed to pit him a lap before the first Safety Car was deployed.
"When I was at McLaren we had two strategists and the strategy from my strategist was to get the best overall result for me," he told Sky Sports F1 afterwards.
"Unfortunately [at Mercedes] we have one overall strategist, and he's amazing, but unfortunately the role in the team is that he has to look out for the number one [driver in the race] and the guy in second has to come second. I knew from the get-go that I had a lesser opportunity to win the race and I needed a miracle to win at a track like this.
"An opportunity occurred where I could have come in. When I was at McLaren, l would have been pulled in on that lap and that may have given me the smallest advantage to get the jump over the Safety Car. But I'll work it out with the team. In these races, you need to grab every opportunity you can. The start was gone, I was closing up and then the [first] Safety Car came out and really after that there was no opportunity."
The 2008 World Champion reported a problem with his eye on lap 58 and he started to lose time.
"I had quite a bit of wind coming in, I got close to Nico at one stage and I got some debris or dirt in my eye," he said.
"I was driving with one eye, which is virtually impossible to do. Through low speed corners I had to close the eye, which made it worse, but with five laps to go it cleared up and I was able to stay ahead of Daniel.
"I drove with all heart and drove fairly all weekend. I leave today quite happy and go in to the next race with even more energy and a new determination."

Class Agent: Liz Vogel, '04
Where do you live?
Grosse Pointe Farms, Michigan
Where do you work?
Petitpren Inc. –an Anheuser Busch beer wholesaler
Activities as a student:
Class President, Student Senate, Kappa Delta Sorority, Midnight Runners (Thanks, Dave Friday!), and an assortment of other pastimes including nature center visits. Proud Champion of the 2003 Intramural Coed Canoe Race with Jason Worms, '02.
Why did you choose Albion?
I sent Albion my ACT scores because it was … well, on the top of the alphabetical list. Before I knew it, I was on a visit to campus and just fell right in love. On December 13, 1999, I received the phone call in my parents' kitchen that I had been accepted early decision. That's a date I'll remember forever.
What is one of your favorite Albion memories?
My favorite memory was meeting Kurt Vonnegut after his speech on campus in the spring of 2002. My friend Stephanie Pendrys, '04, and I caught up with him at Bobbitt Visual Arts Center with President Mitchell. President Mitchell said to me, "Liz, what is your favorite piece of artwork?" Without hesitation, I pointed to the still life that I had been admiring. Vonnegut looked around the room and said, "That's my favorite one, too." And that was it. Later I found out that he was somewhat of an art critic.
How did your experiences at Albion impact your life as an alumna?
My degree from Albion has opened up more doors than I ever could have imagined. I especially appreciate the writing intensive courses from the English and History departments. Writing is such an important part of how we communicate, and I am a better writer because of the professors and friends I had at Albion (a very big thank you to Martha Louks, '04).
How do you see your role as a Class Agent?
I think this is phenomenal opportunity to reconnect with alumni from the class of 2004 and share with them my continued enthusiasm for our alma mater. I think a Class Agent is that person who triggers those amazing memories…the ones where you forged friendships, defended theses, and became a scholar. I see my role as a chance to rally our class. If each of us give just a little, we can show those other classes that we are the best!
Why do YOU give back to Albion?
I give back to Albion because I firmly believe that one day the "Elizabeth Vogel Center for Awesomeness and Modesty" at Albion College will be a huge draw for admissions. Joking aside, the answer is simple: We need to take care of our alma mater! Our college is great because of giving and caring alumni. It's not a coincidence that the names of alumni grace just about every building on campus—it's because they give back and want to see current and future students excel like just as they did.

Raising Chickens At Home
Some Cool Ideas for Making Your Own Chicken Coop written by: happyjoy People engage in rearing chicken for different reasons. You just have to look around. The best farming chickens ideas can be found here: http://thefarmguy.net/simple-diy-chicken-coop-plans
Some keep the birds as a hobby while most rear them for food or for commercial purposes. Regardless of the motivation for rearing chicken, a well-constructed chicken coop is necessary. A good chicken coop will ensure that your chickens are kept comfortable and you reap maximum returns from your venture. Ready-made chicken houses can be purchased from carpenters, but it is more fun to build your own chicken coop or at the very least have a carpenter design a coop that suits your taste and preference.Before embarking on constructing a chicken coop, you might need to consider these facts on how to make a chicken coop.a.
Find shade- Build your chicken coop in a shaded area. This will ensure that the coop is shielded from the rigors of weather that include heavy rains, scorching sun, and string winds. The shade will also help in regulating the temperature in the coop by ensuring that sunlight streams to the coop in a regulated fashion.b. Elevate the coop to about 3 feet above the ground- Propping the coop above the ground will ensure that you protect your structure from getting dump. Further, an elevated chicken coop will afford protection to your flock as rodents and other predators are kept at bay. Furthermore, a raised chicken coop will help ease the cleaning of the structure.c. Provide sufficient lighting- When building the coop for you flock, you need to ensure that the interior of the coop is sufficiently illuminated. You might need to invest a little in getting bulbs that cast a warm glow. This type of illumination will ensure that your flock is kept warm during winter and that the short winter days are compensated for. Additionally, the warm glow will also ensure that the egg production is not affected during winter.d.
Provide roosting perches and nesting boxes – Ensure that your coop has roosting perches provided for the chickens. These perches will serve as their sleeping and resting area. Additionally, provide nesting boxes for the hens. Nesting boxes padded with dry http://fivestarbeats.net/fanduel/ straw or wood shavings will provide a cozy laying place for the hens.e. Make your coop predator-proof- Chickens are prey to predators that include foxes, opossums, cats, and raccoons. Making your coop using predator-proof hardware will ensure that all predators are kept at bay. Always ensure that you lock up your chicken coop at night.
This will safeguard your stock from all nocturnal critters. f. Provide a safe free-range area for your flock- Chickens need an outdoor space in which they will play and run around. You can use sturdy hardware cloth to make a safe enclosure for your chickens. This enclosure will prevent the flock from wandering into your garden and wreaking havoc while at the same time protecting them from predators.g. Ventilate your chicken coop – Ensure that your chickens coop is properly ventilated to prevent the chickens from falling ill. You can achieve this by installing vents which allow free flow of air in and out of the coop.

Upper Marlboro, La Plata offices to serve area residents
By AMANDA SCOTT
Staff writer
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Rural Development service office in Prince Frederick is closing Oct. 1, and services will be dispersed among two other locations in the Southern Maryland region, in an effort to increase efficiency and cut costs, according to USDA officials.
On Tuesday, USDA Rural Development Acting Under Secretary Doug O'Brien visited the USDA Service Center in Upper Marlboro, at 5301 Marlboro Race Track Road, to announce that location as one of the two Rural Development offices in the Southern Maryland region beginning Oct. 1, according to a USDA news release. The other office will be located in La Plata at 101 Catalpa Dr.
USDA Rural Development helps rural individuals, communities and businesses obtain financial and technical assistance needed to address their diverse and unique needs, according to the USDA website.
Currently, the only Rural Development office in Southern Maryland is located in Prince Frederick and serves Anne Arundel, Calvert, Charles, Prince George's and St. Mary's counties, according to the USDA website. The existing Prince Frederick office is one of four Rural Development offices across Maryland.
Kathy Beisner, acting state director of Rural Development for Maryland, said Wednesday the office at Prince Frederick primarily works with rural residents needing help with housing or house repairs.
Beisner said the USDA will be utilizing available space at the existing USDA offices in Upper Marlboro and La Plata.
In the release, O'Brien said, "We are grateful for the partnership with the Farm Service Agency to join together at Upper Marlboro and La Plata to satisfy Secretary [of Agriculture Tom] Vilsack's goal to maintain high-quality service to all USDA customers."
According to the release, the Prince Frederick office is one of 259 offices marked for closure by Vilsack as part of his Blueprint for Stronger Service to increase efficiency in USDA operations. The Blueprint for Stronger Service is based on a department-wide review of operations conducted "as part of the [Obama] Administration's Campaign to Cut Waste ... to make government work better and more efficiently for the American People," the release states.
For more information about the Blueprint for Stronger Service initiative, go to the USDA website at www.usda.gov and click on "Blueprint" under the "Secretary's Priorities" tab.

Are you high? Before you say no, consider what you've put in your mouth lately. If it includes anything from rainbow-colored cereal and caramel Frappuccinos to cold cuts and ketchup, there's a decent chance you're riding a sugar rush right now. Don't feel bad--just about every person in America is buzzed with a sugar addiction. Research shows that nearly a quarter of our daily caloric intake--325 calories on average--comes from sweets like baked goods, desserts, soda, and fruit juices. In other words, from sugar.
Now feel the rush…
Sweet treats are bad news because they typically deliver a load of calories with little to no nutrition. A more troubling fact: As our consumption of the white stuff rises, so do the numbers on our scales. A study published in the Annual Review of Nutrition analyzed American diets and found that from 1970 through 2000, daily caloric intake among women ages 20 to 39 jumped from 1,652 to 2,028. But get this: Over the same period, the percentage of calories we were getting from fats and protein decreased. Only the amount of carbs--particularly sugar--shot up. On average, each of us scarfs 25 pounds more sugar annually than women did back when American Bandstand started airing in color. There's no dancing around it: Sugar is a huge part of what's making us fat.
Now brace yourself for two more nasty news flashes: (1) Eating too much sugar can stoke your appetite rather than satisfy it, and (2) it can even become addictive--no surprise to those of us who have a daily 3 p.m. Snickers jones so strong we might be tempted to hurl an office chair at the vending machine if we ever ran out of change. But don't despair, gummy-bear lovers: There's light at the end of this frosted, candy-coated tunnel. With a little determination, you can train yourself to stop craving sugar. And when you do, you'll experience something truly sweet: weight-loss success.
Sweet and Vicious
The newest threat to our waistlines actually has been decades in the making. In fact, we can pinpoint exactly when the sugar time bomb started ticking: 1967, the year high-fructose corn syrup, the first scientifically engineered sugar, was created. A combination of fructose and glucose, HFCS is a clear, sticky liquid with the consistency of maple syrup that can be cheaper to manufacture and sweeter than natural, cane-derived sugar (1.16 times sweeter, to be exact). That means food companies can use less (though they still use a lot) to achieve the same degree of sweetness, which translates to bigger profits. Beverage companies in particular started buying the stuff by the ton. Over the years HFCS also began replacing the sugar in cereals, granola bars, and even flavored yogurt. In 1970 HFCS accounted for less than 1 percent of all sweeteners consumed in America. By 2000, after countless fat-free products were pumped full of sugar to improve their taste, that figure had risen to 42 percent. Now, HFCS accounts for half of all sweeteners, and the United States is both the largest producer and consumer of HFCS in the world.
Manufacturers currently use the taste-bud-pleasing stuff to flavor a huge variety of products, including foods that wouldn't normally contain sugar and that you probably wouldn't describe as sweet, like the sesame seed bun on a McDonald's hamburger, or the Saltine crackers you crumble into soup. Even if you vigilantly shun the sugar bowl and never let a piece of candy cross your lips, you could still be eating a diet loaded with sugar from stealth sources. According to a 2008 USDA report, more than 57 percent of all the sugar on the market is purchased by the food and beverage industry to flavor consumer products, and sweeteners (fructose, sucrose, glucose, and HFCS) are the No. 1 food additive. If you eat without carefully checking food labels and restaurant websites for nutrition information, you may inadvertently be pouring sugar down your throat. Where does it all end up? Yep, right in that jiggly jelly roll hanging over your jeans.
Take our sugar quiz-- and see if you can find where the white stuff may be lurking in your food.

A hamstring injury occurs when you strain or pull one of your hamstring muscles — the group of three muscles that run along the back of your thigh.
You may be more likely to get a hamstring injury if you play soccer, basketball, football, tennis or a similar sport that involves sprinting with sudden stops and starts. Hamstring injury can occur in runners and in dancers as well.
Self-care measures such as rest, ice and over-the-counter pain medications are often all you need to relieve the pain and swelling associated with a hamstring injury. Rarely, surgery may be needed to repair a torn muscle.
A hamstring injury typically causes a sudden, sharp pain in the back of your thigh. You might also feel a popping or tearing sensation. Swelling and tenderness usually develop within a few hours. You may also experience bruising or discoloration along the back of your leg, as well as muscle weakness or an inability to put weight on your injured leg.
Mild hamstring strains can be treated at home. But you should see a doctor if you can't bear any weight on your injured leg or if you can't walk more than four steps without significant pain.
The hamstring muscles are a group of three muscles that run along the back of your thigh from your hip to just below your knee. These muscles make it possible to extend your leg straight behind your body and to bend your knee. When any one of these muscles stretches beyond its limit during physical activity, injury can result.
Hamstring injury risk factors include:
Returning to strenuous activities before your hamstring muscles are completely healed might cause an injury recurrence. In some cases, a recurrent hamstring injury may be more severe than the original injury.
While you may initially consult your family physician, he or she may refer you to a doctor who specializes in musculoskeletal medicine, such as someone in sports medicine or orthopedic surgery.
You may want to write a list that includes:
Your doctor probably will ask some of the following questions:
During the physical exam, your doctor will check for swelling and points of tenderness along the back of your thigh. The location and intensity of your pain can help determine the extent and nature of the damage. Your doctor might also move your injured leg into a variety of positions to help pinpoint which muscle has been injured and if you also have any ligament or tendon damage.
In severe hamstring injuries, the muscle can tear or even detach from where it's connected to the pelvis or shinbone. Sometimes, a small piece of bone is pulled away (avulsion fracture) from the main bone when this detachment occurs. X-rays can check for avulsion fractures, while ultrasound and MRIs can visualize tears in your muscles and tendons.
The initial goal of treatment is to reduce pain and swelling. To accomplish this, your doctor may recommend that you do the following:
After the initial pain and swelling of a hamstring injury subside, your doctor or a physical therapist can show you how to perform specific exercises designed to improve flexibility and strengthen your hamstring muscles.
If your muscle has pulled free from where it's connected to your pelvis or shinbone, orthopedic surgeons can reattach it. Severe muscle tears also can be repaired.
For immediate self-care of a hamstring injury, try the R.I.C.E. approach — rest, ice, compression, elevation. If your injury is worse than a minor muscle strain, you'll want your doctor and physical therapist to help you with this process:
Over-the-counter pain medications, such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB, others) and acetaminophen (Tylenol, others), also can be helpful. After a few days, gently begin to use the injured leg. You should notice a gradual, progressive improvement in your leg's ability to support your weight and your ability to move without pain.
As part of an overall physical conditioning program, regular stretching and strengthening exercises can help to minimize your risk of hamstring injury. Try to be in shape to play your sport; don't play your sport to get in shape. If you have a physically demanding occupation, regular conditioning can help prevent injuries. Ask your doctor about appropriate conditioning exercises.

1. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
En español l What it is: Tingling, aching, pain or numbness on the thumb side of your hand that can stretch across your palm, through your fingers and even up your forearm. Carpal tunnel syndrome can make it painful to do anything that involves flexing your wrist, such as using a keyboard, holding a steering wheel or even grasping a bag.
Subscribe to the AARP Health Newsletter
The reason: Tendons in the narrow part of your wrist (known as the carpal tunnel) swell, pinching the nerve that leads to your hand. A number of factors may contribute to this: normal aging, repetitive movements, hormonal changes and certain medical conditions like diabetes or rheumatoid arthritis.
The remedy: Use Advil, Aleve or another pain reliever to ease swelling and pain. If you work at a computer, take frequent breaks and rotate your wrists in both directions. If that doesn't help, a cortisone shot may provide temporary relief. In chronic cases, outpatient surgery to free the nerve is almost always successful, says Michelle G. Carlson, M.D., an orthopedic surgeon at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York.
2. Spider and Varicose Veins
What they are: Enlarged, ropy and often painful, varicose veins are found most often on the thighs, lower legs and calves. The thin, purplish-red jagged lines on the face and legs are spider veins.
The reason: Genetic roulette, exacerbated by pregnancy, menopause, obesity, injury, sun damage and age.
The remedy: "Walk, bike, swim — anything that boosts circulation may prevent them from getting worse," says Ellen Marmur, M.D. Avoid sitting or standing for long periods. Take frequent breaks with your feet elevated. Try support panty hose or compression stockings. To remove spider and small varicose veins, sclerotherapy or laser-assisted sclerotherapy is the gold standard. Both are simple, outpatient procedures, though you may need more than one treatment.
For serious varicose veins, talk to your doctor about endovenous ablation or radio-frequency ablation therapy. Less invasive than older vein-stripping procedures, these treatments are covered by insurance and do not require general anesthesia — good news for people with medical problems that put them at risk for surgery.
3. Cold Sores
What they are: Small, painful blisters that usually occur on or around your lips.
The reason: Cold sores are caused by the herpes simplex virus, which you can get by kissing or by sharing dishes, towels or utensils with someone who's infected. This is a variation of the same virus that causes genital herpes, though having one doesn't mean you'll get the other.
The remedy: Cold sores usually clear on their own after a week or two, but antiviral creams applied as soon as you feel a twinge or tingle can greatly speed healing. To numb the area during flare-ups, try ointments such as Abreva or Anbesol. Sucking on ice pops also offers relief. Since flare-ups can be triggered by sun exposure and stress, slather on sunscreen and lip balm (avoid mentholated products, since they're also irritating). If you're going through a stressful time or are plagued by frequent attacks, ask your doctor about taking antiviral medications to prevent outbreaks.

24-16, 22-26, 21-18, 20-21
Turning Point: Croatia was on fire at the start of the third quarter and once they outscored their opponent 12-3 to open up a 13-point lead, Montenegro was always chasing the game.
Game Heroes: Ante Tomic produced a classy performance for Croatia with 26 points and eight rebounds while Dontaye Draper didn't shoot the ball great but finished with 12 assists. Marko Popovic meanwhile sunk seven of 11 triples in his 23-point haul.
Stats Don't Lie: In stark contrast to Tomic, Nikola Pekovic was well shackled defensively by Croatia and no better highlighted by the fact he had just nine points and four field goal attempts.
This website requires a Adobe Flash plug-in. Please download the latest version of the Flash plug-in by clicking here
Croatia's big guns were firing on all cylinders as they helped secure a nervy 87-81 win against Montenegro in Group C.
With Ante Tomic pretty much unstoppable inside and both Dontaye Draper and Marko Popovic also making significant contributions, the result had rarely looked in doubt after Croatia took full control early in the second half.
However a late fight-back by Montenegro who at one point had trailed 60-45 gave the Croatians plenty to think about as their lead evaporated to just three points before composing themselves to secure the win.
Croatia had generally been on top throughout the first half having raced into a commanding 23-11 lead thanks mainly to a scoring run of 11 points without reply.
While Montenegro did rally, they still trailed 46-42 at the midway point of the game.
Croatia began to put their foot on the accelerator to shift through the gears early in the third.
Montenegro struggled to cope and found soon themselves 15 points behind.
While they worked hard to cut the margin to 80-77 during the closing stages of the game, Croatia had too many players in good form to lose as they had done in their previous game against F.Y.R. of Macedonia.

FORT DODGE — Jawad Adekoya came off the bench Thursday night and gave the Iowa Central men a basket at the most opportune time.
After Southwestern sank a desperation three-pointer to send the game into overtime, Adekoya scored his only three points of the game in the second extra session, pushing the Tritons to a 58-53 victory inside Hodges Fieldhouse.
Adekoya, who played sparingly in the contest, broke a 53-53 tie with just over a minute left. He followed up with a steal, and Jesse Jones iced the game away for Iowa Central (13-9 overall, 3-4 in ICCAC) at the free throw line.
"It wasn't pretty, but it was a win," ICCC head coach Dennis Pilcher said. "I thought we had a great team effort, especially Jawad coming in there, off the bench and hitting that big three.
"It seems like we have won a lot of games like this during the year."
Rhys Elliot scored a game-high 20 points, including 18 in the second half. Jones finished with 12 points, 11 rebounds and five assists, while Casey Sieren tallied nine.
"Jesse may have had his best game of the year, especially on the offensive end of the court," Pilcher said. "And Rhys came in and knocked down some big shots when we really needed them."
The Tritons withstood several Spartan (10-10, 4-3) rallies, including a 16-2 one in the second half that turned a 22-14 Iowa Central lead into a 30-24 Southwestern advantage.
It was a back-and-forth tilt from the nine-minute mark on, as neither team led by more than three until late in the second overtime period. Marquealis Edwards, who made the desperation, off-balance three to tie the game at the end of regulation, paced the Spartans with 19 before fouling out.
Patrick Wright added 10 points for the Spartans.
"Credit Southwestern, because they really came to play," Pilcher said. "We've had a week off, and I thought that showed. This time of year, you need to be playing games on a consistent basis.
"We turned the ball over too much, and we missed too many open looks, but we came out with the win."
Southwestern had an opportunity to win the game at the end of the first overtime period, but couldn't convert on a 12-foot jumper or on a putback attempt.
"In overtime, we had a good chance to win in the first one," Southwestern head coach Mike Holmes said. "We had the ball, tied with 10 seconds to play. We had a 12-footer and a putback that both missed. I thought we were going to get that."
Southwestern returns to action 3 p.m. Saturday in Estherville against Iowa Lakes. Iowa Lakes, ranked ninth in the country, currently sits second in the ICCAC Division II standings at 7-1, with its only loss coming on Dec. 11 to Southwestern.
Iowa Central — Jesse Jones 12, Jaleel Gray 8, Casey Sieren 9, David Andersen 2, Rhys Elliot 20, Chris Tawiah 4, Jawad Adekoya 3.
Southwestern — Marquealis Edwards 19, Patrick Wright 10, Delby Halcomb 2, Devin Kastrup 12, Jack Harrison 8, Jared Theis 2.
Halftime score: Iowa Central led 19-14, Tied 48-48, Tied 50-50.

Rated 4.7 out of 5 by 117 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by theash Looks can be deceiving although the bat bag looks small, looks can be deceiving. my son was able to use the bag to for his bats, mitt, batting gloves, helmet, and cleats while still having additional room for clothes, etc. I am very impressed with the product and my high school son loves it. January 7, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by McFly Awesome bag I got this bag a little bit ago, and so far its really nice, I carry a decent bit of equipment and it holds all of it with room for a change of clothes. I got it in red and it looks really nice. The helmet holder is pretty stable and the bat sleeves hold tight. Over all great bag! January 14, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by megan6950 Lots of storage perfect for my son who is very tough on equipment it's held up very well in the dugout with all the players pulling bats and other equipment out of it! A+++ February 25, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by Amanda12 Love this bag My 8 year old son got this bag from his grandparents for Christmas.. Not only will he use if for baseball but he also used it for basketball.. The ball fit great where the helmet goes and fit a lot of stuff in the bag. He received a lot of compliments when we would go to different tournaments. He loves the bag!!! May 27, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Leelee6472 This product rocks! There is a pocket for every tool. A little pricey but.you get what you pay for. Easy accessing bats and gloves and helmet and anything else. Comfortable to wear and sturdy. Does not wobble. The bats are in solid and don't flop around back and.forth. I really enjoy Easton products. October 28, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Jackie27 Great Lots of space, comfortable, and durable. It holds my cleats, three gloves and my helmet. It has room for more too March 12, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Awesome Baseball Backpack Bat Bag The compact bat bag that has everything... This Easton bat bag is well designed and works great for my son, who plays high school baseball. It even has room for his size 14 cleats!!! September 18, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by baseball554789 Easton Backpack This bag is on the more expensive end $74.99, for a 11 year old that is getting a little spendy. I love the Easton brand and the bag itself is really nice, but there was one problem that drove me nuts (not my 11 year old) ME. THe bag has a front helmet holder on the the front face of the bag...when you set the bag down on the ground the bag will tip over from being front heavy....this is not really a big deal but for $75 it bothered me. We switched it out for Demari Vodoo bag where the helmet sits in the middle of the bag. I would recommend the product if something like that doesnt bother you. April 22, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Bess03 Love this bag! I purchased two of these bags at Chtistmas time. One for my son and one for my daughter. We haven't used them a lot yet since we are not in baseball/softball season yet. My kids carried them to a couple of indoor practices. I love that there is a place for everything! I love the outside space for the helmet. I wasn't sure a girls helmet with the face guard would fit, but it did. There is a seperate pocket for spikes so nothing else gets dirty. The bats stay in their place tightly and don't move around. There is plenty of room on the inside for a glove and more. I didn't notice at first but there is a strip of velcro on the bag so you can attach your batting gloves to it and therefore get at them quickly. A little expensive, but cheaper than some of the big name bags. Overall, a great purchase! January 14, 2015
