Tiger Woods Issues Apology
By mustang6560 on 4/12/12
I want to applaud Tiger Woods for issuing a pseudo-apology for his on-course behavior at the Masters.
One thing I would like to say about the Masters last week is that obviously I got frustrated at times and know some of my actions were wrong, especially at No. 16. The Masters means a lot to me, and I was trying as hard as I could. I'm out there competing. I grind every day, and my expectations are to do my best. It's very disappointing when that doesn't happen.The former world made more noise last week throwing and kicking his golf clubs than using them to advance the ball from tee to green. His behavior was so unbecoming of a 14-time major champion that even some of his biggest supporters called him out.
It must be frustrating for someone like Tiger, who dominated golf for years on end, to accept the inevitably of life - we all grow old. I know we shouldn't thank people for doing what they're supposed to do (i.e. Tiger acted like a child, so he should apologize), however, I think his apology is a sign of maturity. Tiger's never been the most happy-go-lucky golfer in the world, but people used to excuse away his on-course outbursts because he won. And now that he is a mere mortal and can't find that extra level of play, he's trying to adapt to his new role, so I think we should cut him a little slack.
Maybe if he finds that extra level again, he can go back to behaving as he wishes. But for now, he could use a little more self-awareness.
Also, if you're interested, Tiger committed to play the Wells Fargo Championship and The Players Championship.

That's an apology? Augusta has grounds for never letting him play again. Heck, the audience at Augusta can get tossed for 'Get in the HOLE!' why not a player that 'g@d Da%#'s his way across the course. Tiger has been a great player but this character flaw has always gotten in my way of cheering for the guy. A lot of people talk about how great Tiger has been for golf, true, but then golf has been awfully good to Tiger. A little appreciation of that fact would go a long way. Did Bubba cuss and throw club when his dive went in the woods, no, he forgot about that shot and consentrated on his next and pulled it off. Way to go, Bubba!
dartboss04 says:
He shouldn't have done it, but we pick on Tiger as he is most watched player and every move is scrutinized. I like Bubba, but he cussed out another pro at an event. None of these guys are saints.
Azinger went a little crazy here too. I don't mind the first comment about the club throwing. I don't feel as strongly about the offense but to each his own. When he said he was never as lost playing as Tiger looked out there, give me a break. The dude missed the cut in majors more than 20 times in his career. "Lost" Tiger still made it to the weekend.
legitimatebeef says:
Read carefully, there is no apology there. He concedes that its wrong but never says he's sorry to have done it. To issue an apology would be fake. He's been getting angry over golf shots his whole life even when he was playing his best. So have most golfers. It is unbecoming when frustration boils over on the course, sure, you know it, I know it, Nate knows it. the moral posturing that comes out every time this happens is mind-numbing.
Duke of Hazards says:
Tiger got a good kick in the midsection of that 9-iron, but I liked Stenson's angry gouge at the pine needles on day 1's 18th snowman better.
SpaceMaNy0 says:
Eldrick will continue to whine and cry every time he swings and makes $10,000, and all we can do is sit back and watch this guy you've all turned into a role model make an ass of himself. Hope the kids emulate this stellar behavior and turn golf into a sport with class.
jcstoll says:
Like lbeef points out - he never actually apologies. He admits it was wrong, but he stops short of saying anything along the lines of "I'll never do it again" or "I'll make every effort to contain myself" (whatever happened to his vow even-keelness - in his post-debacle speech, didn't he say we won't see the extremes - the angry outburts nor the elated fist-pumping?) And he talkings about his kids rooting for him at Bay Hill. I wonder if they caught his Master's tantrum.
jcstoll says:
One thing I'd like to say about my last posting is that obviously I rushed in hitting "post" and know some of my grammar was wrong. Oobgolf means a lot to me, and I was trying as hard as I could. I'm out there commenting. I grind every day, and my expectations are to do my best. It's very disappointing when that doesn't happen.
BAKE_DAWG40 says:
THAT was an apology???
ppinkert says:
I think it hurts to find out you are human. Is it me or has it become free press to act bad? I always liked the idea that Golf has (or had) a maturity about it. I don't get that feeling much anymore. But, I could say that's a reason I play alone most of the time. I'm an average player and have fun in the game and challenge I bring to myself to be better. Not all the extra buzzing I see around the game these days. To me it's just noise and that messes with my game. Yeah as you can imagine I'm no fun... I guess.

I won't choose Mandarin.
I think China is the future. Mandarin is the dominant language in China (sorry Gelo ). So it makes a lot of sense to me.
I know Mandarin is dominant, but as a Cantonese native speaker I think Cantonese sounds sweeter Many ancient Chinese poems were written in Cantonese, if you read them in Mandarin, you may not find the rhymes. And Mandarin did confuse me when I was a primary student, I just couldn't pronounce 'zh', 'z' and 'j' correctly :-D
I know, Roscoe, you're fighting against of the bots every day, but you're missing this bot from china who calls himself "coynejeremy" Who knows what damage he has caused to our beloved pistonsforum?

Green Bay Smothers Flames in Historic Homecoming Win
By Justin Grones (@JustinGrones)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - The most team assists in program history. Five players with 12 or more points. Seven career highs. Two double-doubles. The most points in a game since the 2005-06 season and the sixth-most in program history. On quite the historic day, the Green Bay women's basketball team (17-2, 7-0 HL) returned to the Kress Center after a four-game road trip in dominating fashion, extending its winning streak to 12 games with a smothering 99-53 win over UIC (6-14, 2-5 HL).
With the help of two three's by Taylor Foulks to open the game, UIC built a 6-4 lead less than two minutes into the contest. A triple from Lydia Bauer (Lake Zurich, Ill.) gave the Phoenix a 7-6 lead, which turned into a 9-7 advantage at the first media timeout.
UIC's Katie Hannemann cut the deficit to 11-9 with 13:51 remaining, but that's when Green Bay put the fire out. The Phoenix went on a 31-2 run over the next 10 and a half minutes, holding UIC scoreless for nearly nine minutes.
"That run really helped spark us in what started out as a back-and-forth game, and our kids did a great job of finding their open teammates," head coach Kevin Borseth said.
A three from Adrian Ritchie (De Pere, Wis.) pushed the run to 20-0 with 6:33 remaining in the half, and another triple from Bauer gave Green Bay a 42-11 lead to cap the run.
Leading 48-21 on the final possession of the half, Green Bay worked the ball around the Flames' defense until Sarah Eichler (Grafton, Wis.) dished it off to a wide-open Jenny Gilbertson (Wabasha, Minn.) in the corner for an open three at the buzzer. Gilbertson finished the game with career highs in points and rebounds, notching 14 and 13 for her first-career double-double.
Both teams found success scoring to open the second half, but with 13:42 remaining Green Bay started a 21-4 run with a Bauer layup. At the 10:49 mark, redshirt junior Breannah Ranger (Skokie, Ill.) laid it in off the glass to double-up the Flames at 72-36.
With 5:16 remaining, Green bay eclipsed its previous season-high point total of 86 off the first-career three from redshirt freshman Ellen Edison (Maple Grove, Minn.), giving the Phoenix an 87-42 lead. Less than two minutes later, she hit both attempts from the free throw line to give Green Bay 90 points in a game for the first time since Feb. 16, 2012.
A jumper that rolled all the way around the rim from redshirt freshman Taylor Thomas (Wausau, Wis.) with 24 seconds remaining moved Green Bay's effort into the top-10 in program history for single points in a game with 97. With nine seconds on the clock, redshirt junior Sam Zastrow (Algoma, Wis.) hit two free throws to hit the final score of 99-53. With her free throws, every Phoenix player that saw time on the court scored in the game and the team finished with 99 points-the sixth most in a single game in program history.
PROGRAM RECORDS: In today's win, Green Bay had 34 assists, breaking a 27-year-old record for the most in a single game in program history. The Phoenix's 99 points is tied for sixth-most in program history, and the most the since a 103-53 win against Lewis during the 2005-06 season.
CAREER HIGHS: Redshirt senior Stephanie Sension (Hopkins, Minn.) scored 12 points and grabbed a tied-career high 10 boards, giving her the second double-double of this season and her career. Fellow post player Breannah Ranger scored a career-high 16 points after tying her previous career high of 14 in the win at Wright State on Monday. Jenny Gilbertson tallied her first career double-double with 14 points and 13 rebounds, both career highs. Ellen Edison's five points rank as her career-best, while Sarah Eichler had a career-high eight assists and Adrian Ritchie tied her career high with the same mark.
NUMBER 200,000: In the win against UIC, the Kress Center saw its 200,000th basketball fan attend a Green Bay women's basketball game. The Phoenix leads the Horizon League in attendance, and has a total women's basketball attendance of 200,609 in its five-year history.
NEXT ON THE SCHEDULE: Green Bay travels to Loyola next Thursday for a 7 p.m. battle before returning home to host rival Milwaukee on Saturday, Feb. 9. The game against the Panthers will be the first of four straight at home.

CHAPEL HILL - Sophomore guard P.J. Hairston already made his decision.
When he saw Dexter Strickland jump in front of a Georgia Tech big man in the second half of Wednesday's 79-63 win against the Yellow Jackets, Hairston anticipated the steal and took off with him. From that point forward, he just knew.
"When Dexter gave it to me I already had my mind made up that I was going to dunk it anyway," Hairston said. "Little did I know that I was going to be dunking on a 6-foot-11 center. But I had to. ... Honestly, I didn't see him until the last second and I was up there, so I was like, 'Well, why not.'"
With his hand and the ball already cocked back for the grand finale, Hairston pushed down a one-handed slam directly over the Terrapins' Daniel Miller. The dunk sent the Dean Dome into a flurry, with 'Hair-ston' chants quickly following.
Hairston, though, didn't really have time to soak it all in.
"Actually, right after that, I was kind of posing," Hairston said, laughing. "I came to the bench and I heard them chanting my name, but other than that I was basically posing and trying to sprint back on defense cause my man beat me back down the court."
After a 1-for-8 shooting performance against Maryland, Hairston finished the night with 15 points off the bench for North Carolina on 5-for-11 shooting - 3-for-6 from the three-point line. It was the type of performance his teammates and coaches are looking for every game.
"I've seen quite a few (dunks) at Carolina, but it's easy top five, top 10 - I'll say top 10," James Michael McAdoo said. "I've been playing with P.J since I was in eighth grade, so I've seen what he can do. I've seen how he can dominate games ... When his shot is falling, he just dominates. He makes things look so much easier and makes thing easier on us as post players."
And Strickland echoed those feelings - that when Hairston is having a good night, it generally means the rest of the team is thriving off it, as well.
"It's very different," Strickland said. "It opens the floor for McAdoo, Joel (James) - J.P. (Tokoto) even had a couple of easy buckets. It just gets the team flowing and gets everybody pumped up and ready to play."
The focus for Hairston now, though, is getting a grasp on those games and making them happen night after night. Coach Roy Williams said consistency is key for Hairston moving forward.
"It would be consistency if we got it, but we don't have it yet," Williams said. "I'll take 3-for-6 from the three-point line every time, but we've got to get the consistency out of him if he wants to be the big-time player we need him to be."
But Hairston knows that finding that consistency is possible. From the very first time he checks into the game down to his final shot, Hairston's play all comes down to finding a rhythm and staying with it.
With UNC's first matchup against NC State booked for Saturday and a stretch of difficult road games not far behind, Hairston is looking to make that change right away.
"It's just up to me to find myself in the game and just take what they give me," Hairston said. "This game I started out with a layup right under the basket and made my way out to where I got two wide-open three's. From then on it was like, 'OK, I'm in this rhythm. I can keep doing this.' I just have to take my time and be patient."

Well my latest project to finish up my Fett. Working on my ESB jetpack...got it from FD in a ROTJ state. He worked on it a bit adding the removable missle and the thruster work (awesome by the way FD) and now I sanded it down and primed it for ESB paint.
As you notice I attached the backplate to the jetpack via bolts...it's going to be a one peice backplate/jetpack so I just attach it to my vest in one take. Using a very interesting setup for the harness...my wife actually pointed it out to me at Home Depot.

Waterfowl Hunting on Agricultural Lands
Agricultural lands offer prime waterfowl hunting opportunities. You can hunt waterfowl in fields of unharvested standing crops. You can also hunt over standing crops that have been flooded. You can flood fields after crops are harvested and use these areas for waterfowl hunting.
The presence of seed or grain in an agricultural area rules out waterfowl hunting unless the seed or grain is scattered solely as the result of a normal agricultural planting, normal agricultural harvesting, normal agricultural post-harvest manipulation, or normal soil stabilization practice.
These activities must be conducted in accordance with recommendations of the State Extension Specialists of the Cooperative State Research, Education, and Extension Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (Cooperative Extension Service).

In the years Stew Morrill has been a head coach, Don Verlin's spent much of that time by his side. For 15 years, he was Morrill's assistant, and the two labored over some great seasons and some challenging years.
On Thursday, Utah State visits the Verlin-coached Vandals in Moscow, Idaho. And even Verlin never saw an Aggies squad as banged up as this one.
"It's definitely an unfortunate situation," Verlin said. "Eight scholarship players? We never had that when I was with coach at Colorado State or Utah State. It's tough."
That doesn't mean Verlin is expecting a cupcake contest against his old mentor.
"I will say this coach hasn't won 500 games by sitting around feeling sorry for himself," he said. "He's going to have them ready to play."
Morrill has said himself this injury-prone season is among the "weirdest" he's encountered. He's had trouble comparing this year, in which he's lost four players to serious injuries and two others who departed by choice, to any other in his 27-year tenure as a head coach.
Preston Medlin, Kyisean Reed, Danny Berger and Sean Harris have all gone down in the past few months. Counting Brady Jardine, who was injured last year and couldn't return this season, Morrill joked last week that he could have a solid starting lineup made of injured players.
Part of the challenge for Morrill and the Aggies has been to simply keep their heads up, to ignore the burden brought on by the strange machinations of fate.
"I think we've all thought at one point or another, 'Why did this have to happen to those guys?' " sophomore Ben Clifford said. "Preston and Kyisean are great guys, great leaders on this team. And Danny, well, he could've died. But we don't think, 'Why poor us?' "
Everyday activities are a chore with only eight scholarship players and a crew of three more walk-ons or redshirts. Practices have been shortened and slowed down to reduce the risk of more injuries, but the concern is that less practice means less preparation.
If your head isn't in it, Clifford said, you don't get much out of it.
"It's not so much the physical as the mental," he said. "You need to be focused."
Still, even when the Aggies do a lot right, they are learning that they're not always going to get the result they want. After a loss to UT Arlington, Morrill asked for more intensity and effort, especially on the defensive end. When Utah State held WAC-leading Louisiana Tech to a season-low 51 points, it still got a loss.
Morrill has said since Reed's and Medlin's injuries that as long as the team plays hard, "we'll live with the result." But Aggies fans would probably still appreciate that for the team, the bar is still higher, and the losses still sting.
"We could've beaten those guys," junior Marvin Jean said of the three-point loss to the Bulldogs. "We came in hard last game and almost beat them. We have enough guys to win. We just have to keep faith."
Utah State hopes that the fan base will also keep its faith in them. At 5-4 in the WAC, the Aggies have fallen from the top of the standings to hovering in a muddled middle.
They still believe they can get back there with casts, bandages and whatever other misfortunes they might pick up along the way.
"We have a little fatigue, but we're going to keep going hard," Jean said. "We'll have more chances to win. We'll find a way to win."

Granite State Comicon brings enthusiasts to Manchester

Wonder Woman, Batman and Robin, Capt. Jack Sparrow, Boba Fett and the Phantom of the Opera were among those celebrating the opening day of the 10th annual Granite State Comicon, which has grown in both size and diversity.
"It's just kind of cool. Everyone gets to dress up and experience the magic of ... entertainment," said Dana Powers, who was wearing the orange flight suit of a Rebel Alliance fighter pilot from Star Wars. "Everyone's meshing all the worlds, and that makes it fun because it gets kind of boring if everyone keeps doing the same thing."
The terms "geek" and "nerd" were used frequently and with pride throughout the convention, which for the first time in its 10-year history has been expanded to two days.
"I've never gone to a 'con' without dressing up," said Joy Powell, a 24-year-old from Boston who was "Princess Peach" from the Mario Brothers game franchise. "It helps people approach you. It helps make new friends, and it helps kind of get the conversations going with other fans. I've always thought that was really fun."
She was describing the various costumes she has made over the years when a little girl tapped her on the arm, complimented the Princess Peach ensemble and asked if she could get a picture with her.
"The scene is growing enormously," said Anderson, who tries to attend 10 to 15 conventions every year. "I like to see the variety. It's good seeing a lot of different things."
A musician who once played in a KISS cover band, MacLeod said dressing up for a performance is nothing new, although he did have to dye the leather pants and jacket he was wearing to make them the character's color of green.
Proulx said the comicon growth comes from several different factors. He said about 49 percent of comics are read by women now, as opposed to 10 years ago, when it was only about 20 percent. Superheroes overall have also become more popular with more and more featured in movies.
The convention features a vendor floor, media guests, panels, a mini-arcade courtesy of Weirs Beach gaming center Funspot, an artist's alley and a gaming area. Also in attendance are famous props from television and film, including the DeLorean from "Back to the Future Part III."
Granite State Comicon wraps up today at the Radisson Center of New Hampshire, located at 700 Elm St. in Manchester. The event runs from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. today.

Arsenal are 7/4 with GunnersGaming to put an end to Everton's unbeaten home record this season on Wednesday night.
Arsenal have won eight of their last ten Premier League fixtures against David Moyes' team, and have inflicted Everton's two biggest defeats in the Premier League - 6-1 in August 2009 at Goodison Park and 7-0 at Highbury in May 2005.
Arsène Wenger's men also come into the game on an unbeaten run of five matches in all competitions, and prior to their stalemate at Villa Park last Saturday, had scored 10 goals in three matches.
Arsenal Captain Thomas Vermaelen has scored in both games he has played at Goodison Park, and could be a lively outsider at 20/1 in the first goalscorer market. He can also be backed at 73/10 to get on the scoresheet anytime in the 90 minutes.
Arsenal won the corresponding fixture back in March 1-0, and a repeat of the outcome is 41/5 with GunnersGaming
Also, in the last 21 games against Arsenal in all competitions, Everton have only managed more than one goal in a game on one occasion and that makes the home side not to score look well worth considering at 13/5.

Crying the Blues
Hey Stu:
What is the "Tight Seal" stuff made of? Sounds as though it is very resistant to heat and oil based fluids. When you were sealing between two surfaces did you use the tight seal by itself, or in conjunction with a gasket?
If you used the tight seal in conjunction with a gasket did you coat both sides of the gasket prior to pressing the mating surfaces together? I always like to learn about new stuff that is not standard materials that you find in the conventional hot rodding world. Especially if the product prevents fluid
leaks. Oh how I hate to detail the bottom side of my '32 and then have ten drops of oil explode all over everthing it touches while I am cruising and the bottom side of my ride end up looking like I ran over a case of 10W30 at 60MPH.
|ferrari stu
oil leaks
There is a product called "TIGHT SEAL" that we used on aircraft systems and I used it on my boat motors for years. Magic stuff, never any leaks. It can be bought at aircraft parts stores and aircraft hydraulic supply shops.
Try it, you'll never go back. STU
|i have had bad luck with the cjeap stuff not leaking. The mr. gasket 2 peice timing cover, leaks, cheap valve covers. My guess would be to use a aluminum pan, at least thats what is on next "to do list".
i had a leaky pan gasket as well. the gasket looked and felt like rubber when installed. when i removed it, it had hardened to what felt like a rubber cork gasket. i installed a cork gasket with RTV on the pan side and no more leak.
350 Turbo "Crying The Blues"
Well Nut, as a friend of mine likes to say, even Ray Charles can see your point. Sorry to hear that your friend was blessed times 3 with low
bid parts. But I guess the old adage you get what you pay for still holds
true with some products. Hey, maybe I can put my shiny tin tranny pan
on Ebay and sell it? Naw, I will just hang it on the wall and use it as a
conversational piece. Would hate to peddle a piece of crap to someone else. They may not be bothered by leaks and end up burning up their tranny. So, as Larry the Cable guy says, so much for acquiring parts made in the land of "Boogla Boogla".
|Like many other guys here will probably tell you .... and as if you didnt already know......its a P.O.S. "over there" made part. Take it off and sh-- can it. Get an oem pan, paint or have it chromed if you like and thats it. Had a friend who bought a chrome front cover, a trans. pan and an oil pan on ebay from some outfit, they all leaked, no matter how much silicone he smeared all over them.
350 Turbo "Crying The Blues"
Along with some other "good stuff" that many of you have read about in regard to my '32 I also have a 350 Turbo pan issue I would like to receive
input on. Simply put, the pan is "crying the blues" (seeping) out of every surface possible around the pan gasket and even the drain plug. And an oil leak of any type on one of my rides I have no patience with. The pan
is a nice shiny piece of what I have started to refer to as cheap tin (cannot

New England Patriots wide receiver Wes Welker is expected to play, but he will test his ankle before Sunday's game against the Indianapolis Colts, NFL.com's Albert Breer reported.
Welker was listed as questionable this week, but there weren't any real doubts about his availability. He and tight end Rob Gronkowski could be in for big days against an Colts team with a shaky secondary.
Welker has 66 receptions for 810 yards and two touchdowns on the season.

Matheson 8-320 Regulator help
4 Attachment(s)
Hi all,
I bought a Matheson 8-320 CO2 regulator on ebay and i'm having some trouble identifying the connectors coming out of it. I've read online that it can either have the 1/4" NPT connector or a weirdly threaded monstrosity that requires an adapter of some kind. Is mine 1/4" NPT or the other?
The pictures are as follows:
1) the regulator itself
2) the part that goes to the tank - what is the white plastic stuff capped inside? is that a stopper that I have to remove?
3)the low pressure output side - is this 1/4" npt?
4)a valve that came with it that was in the low pressure output - I removed it.
Help me plantedtank forum, you are my only hope.
The third picture is a high flow valve. Most industrial regs come with them, and they're useless to us. You can junk it.
The outlet is 1/4" NPT.
The inlet is either 1/4" NPT or 1/2"-27, but you won't know until you remove the one that's on there, which may or may not be necessary. My guess is that it's not possible to slide the nut down the nipple - I have one or two like that - so you'll have to use a pipe wrench or locking pliers on the nipple shaft if you want to remove it. As far as the plastic gunk in the orifice, you'll need to remove it. It's probably the remnants of the last nylon washer it was used with, that somehow got down there. If you can't remove it, you'll need to replace the nipple. If you can remove the gunk, and you don't find a leak along the nipple, then you're fine and don't have to worry about removing the nipple.
By the way, the "weirdly threaded monstrosity" that the inlet threads probably are is a simple fix, if you even need to go there. Western Enterprises part CO-7, I think, is the 1/2-27 threaded nipple, and costs all of a dollar or two more than a standard 1/4 nipple. They both use the same nut.
Thanks buddy, I'm glad the outlet is 1/4" npt, that makes things easier for finding parts. Any recommendations of companies that sell pipe fittings online? I'm not very mechanically inclined, what are te specific names of the parts? What will convert 1/4" to 1/8"? I assume I'll need a 45 degree elbow from the outlet to the solenoid if I want it straight for my jbj bubble counter, right?
I do almost all my general parts shopping with Evilbay, and most of my specific parts (stainless adapters, for example), through online sellers (Swagelok, Clippard, etc.). Just do an Evilbay search for "brass adapter 1/4 1/8 npt" or some variation and you'll come up with plenty of options. Just make sure the description says nothing about "tube", "ISO", "flare" "BSP", or any other type of fitting. It should all be NPT, FNPT, or MNPT. And keep everything 1/8" after the initial adapter if possible.
No, you don't need a 45 degree elbow. A standard 90 degree elbow will just as easily turn from 9 o'clock (if the reg face were a clock) to straight forward, as it will from 7 o'clock to straight forward. Do a search for VTS250 co2 regulator images and you'll see what I mean.
Feel free to PM with specific questions - I've built several rigs with that model.

(For the time being the focus will be on lists, not heirarchical trees.)
The tricky part of a list controller/view is that you have a controller/view on a sequence. You need to figure out:
- How to communicate requests for changes to the sequence
- What those requests are
- How to communicate a change in the visible portion of the sequence to the view
We assume the sequences in a list are disjoint.

void monitor_splice(const monitor_splice_callback_t& how);


text: I agree with this. It seems we use a scatter gun approach to sports/arts for instance instead of listening to the kid who might say, no I don't want to play y, I'd rather do x instead. In theory letting your kids try everything is great. In practice, it burns the kid out and the parents. It depends on where you are. Where I'm from, a lot of volunteer hours are spent keeping rinks going. So 6:00 a.m. practices don't happen, so you fight for the hours from 3:00 to 11:00, and if you have a canskate program, you want early hours ie right after school or early evening. Of course minor hockey wants the same hours, as well as public skating and weekends are out in small town Canada because of hockey tournaments which are big money makers and public skating. Everyone tries their best, but there is only so many hours available. Good, there have been kids who have fallen through the cracks because they live too far away from a major centre. But it makes me wonder what Kurt Browning and his parents did, because Caroline/Rocky Mtn, Alberta isn't a mecca for high level figure skating.

Sheffield breaks out with first spring hit
Sheffield collects first hit of spring
"No," he said Wednesday. "I just thought, man, Ichiro [Suzuki] was eating the same thing."
Only Seattle's Ichiro, last year's runner-up to Magglio Ordonez in the American League batting race, had more at-bats without a hit this spring than Sheffield going into the day. But Sheffield's 0-for-14 start, tied with Boston's Bobby Kielty for longest in the Grapefruit League, included a fair number of at-bats in which he was dealing with leg cramps.
Wednesday's game against the Astros was a positive sign for Sheffield. He turned on the first pitch he saw from Houston starter Woody Williams and pulled it down the left-field line for a double.
"I was in a better hitting position today," Sheffield said. "I was able to use my legs. When I feel that way, I don't worry about results that much."
Sheffield flew out to the warning track in center field in the third inning. He finished the day 1-for-4. Though he's now 1-for-18 this spring, Sheffield is making contact, having struck out just once.
After all the Spring Trainings he has been through, the numbers have become superfluous to him.
"Mine is all about how I feel," Sheffield said. "If I'm healthy, I don't worry about that. I've been doing this for a long time. Every spring I say I'm going to try to have a good spring, and I never do in 20 years. If it ain't broke, don't fix it."
Sheffield's start rounded out the Tigers' mighty projected Opening Day lineup, which was together Wednesday for the first time all spring. Detroit had something close to that in its Spring Training opener two weeks ago, but Sheffield was out while dealing with his arbitration case against his former agent, Scott Boras.

UIC Slips Past Men's Soccer, 2-1
By Rachel Buck (@GBRachel)
CHICAGO, Ill. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) – The Green Bay men's soccer team rallied from a 1-0 deficit, but a goal by UIC in the 84th minute sealed the win for the Flames as they earned a 2-1 win on Saturday afternoon in Chicago.
With the win, UIC completed its conference season with a perfect 7-0 record while going 15-3 overall. The loss moved Green Bay to 7-7-3 overall and 2-4-1 in the Horizon League.
The Phoenix put three shots on the board in the first half, including two on goal. Sam Krenzien (Wauwatosa, Wis.) had his shot attempt saved by UIC's Andrew Punta in the 14th minute. Audi Jepson (Green Bay, Wis.) also saw a shot stopped by Punta in the 35th minute and six minutes later had his shot attempt blocked to keep the Phoenix off the scoreboard.
Defensively the Phoenix stood strong against a Flames offense that put nine shots on the board in the opening stanza, while keeper Kyle Ihn (Wales, Wis.) came up with one save to keep the game scoreless going into the break. At intermission, the hosts led in shots, 9-3, and corners, 1-0.
The match remained scoreless until the 54th minute, when a goal by Joel Leon gave the Flames a 1-0 lead. Not ready to see the season end, the Phoenix turned up its offensive pressure and finally capitalized in the 79th minute. AJ Patterson netted his first goal of the season as his shot hit the crossbar and bounced in, evening the match at 1-1.
Two minutes later Krenzien had an opportunity to add one more for the Phoenix, but the UIC defense came up with a team save. It was the Flames who struck next as Jorge Alvarez collected a pass from Aris Zafeiratos and snuck it past Ihn in the 84th minute for the final 2-1 margin.
For the match, Green Bay led in corner kicks, 3-1, and shots on goal, 4-3, while the Flames led overall shots, 13-8.
The Phoenix will now have to wait until the conclusion of the Detroit at Valparaiso match later this evening to learn its fate in the upcoming Horizon League Tournament. If Valparaiso wins, Green Bay will be eliminated from the tournament, but if the Crusaders lose or draw, the Phoenix will make it to the postseason tourney.

Galactiwiki Entry: The A.R.M., or Automated Refractionary Module (commonly called the ARModule) is the latest technical device from Androsynth Labs.
Designed originally as a prosthetic replacement for heavy labor purposes, it has become ubiquitous (singly and in pairs) among both youth gang members, and certain unruly sections of the armed forces. Its massive, powerful hand is almost completely as flexible and versatile as a flesh hand, but with a strength augmentation of nearly thirty times average human strength.
All manner of methods have been devised to put clothing over top of the otherwise unwieldy prosthesis, but the most common seems to simply be removing them, someone else garbing the subject, then replacing them. Some also attach additional devices to the handmount, the most common of which is a set of three razor sharp blades - or worse yet, vibroblades drawing on the arm's power source.

The legendary British Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli is said to have noted that "There are lies, damn lies, and statistics." Much of the technology world is focused on statistics and metrics. You've often heard it said, "If I can't measure it, it doesn't exist." Known as the McNamara fallacy — named after the business tycoon turned Vietnam-era Secretary of Defense — this famous idea failed miserably as a strategy. While it sounds good to the CEO's ears, there is a corollary bubbling up below him that implicitly states that "If my boss wants to measure something that doesn't exist, then I'll invent it!"

Licensed/Registered Well and Boring Contractor Directory
Well Management Program
The Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) Well Management Section licenses or registers contractors who construct, repair, modify, and seal wells and borings as defined in Minnesota Statutes, chapter 103I. Wells include water-supply wells (including drivepoint or sandpoint wells), dewatering wells, irrigation wells, and monitoring wells. Borings include elevator borings, environmental bore holes, exploratory borings (for minerals, natural gas, oil), and vertical heat exchangers (geothermal heat loops).
There are ten (10) different license types that provide a wide range of well services. Well contractors are licensed to provide the entire range of drilling, repair, and sealing services. Limited or specialty licenses/registrations, such as pump installer or elevator contractor, are authorized to provide a limited range of service or work on only certain types of wells or borings. There are approximately 220 well contractors and approximately 325 contractors with limited or specialty licenses/registrations. Some contractors may hold multiple licenses/registrations.
Each contractor listed in the directory has a certified representative or registered person who has met the experience and testing requirements to qualify for certification and who obtains continuing education for annual license/registration renewal. Each contractor maintains a corporate surety bond to ensure compliance with State requirements. All work done on wells and borings must be in compliance with Minnesota Rules, chapter 4725 (Wells and Borings), oftentimes referred to as the Well Code. Exploratory borings are covered by Minnesota Rules, chapter 4727.
The directory of licensed/registered contractors follows this introduction. Each screen page will include a key explaining the different license/registration types and the work that can be done under each license/registration. This directory is updated daily. You can search for contractors by county, state, company name, or the name of the certified representative or registered person. Again, please note the license/registration type for each contractor and make sure that it is appropriate for the type of work that you plan to have done. Since the number of contractors is relatively small in some areas of the state, you may want to search by a number of counties surrounding your home county. Some contractors do service large areas.

text: I have finally reached the point in my 2 year sentence with Verizon where I can get a new phone. I currently have a Motorola Razor that has been a problem since I got it and all Verizon did was give me a new one with the same problem. I want to stay with Verizon because my entire family is on it but I dont' like most of their phones. My cousins have the LG NV2 and had convinced me it was the best one to buy - but Verizon is no longer selling them - just the NV3 which has a million complaints about the phone shutting itself off because of a design flaw. I don't really need to do a lot of Email but I do text a bit and would like a Qwerty keyboard though it's not a requirement. Any Verizon users that can help point me in the right direction?

is $290 a good price for all of this?
coveralls, vest, gloves, Wookie scalps, cape, ankle covers and belt pouches.
It all depends on the quality of each component if you ask me. If they are all screen accurate, then yes, I'd say it's a great price.
Hi Curtis,
The price sounds good to me. Is it new or used? Have you seen pictures? If you are interested in being screen accurate, there are LOTS of important details that are sometimes left out. There is alot of debate about the color of the flightsuit depending on Boba or Jango and which episode you are going for. If you are going for more of a custom, then you can be less picky.
I would definitely say "buyer beware". Who is it that is going to sell this to you? I would recommend that you do some research and find out if the seller is a reputable person.
I hope this helps some.
really ya there all screen accurate thanx ill shall get it
and im buying from the star fortress are they good??
Careful! Before you go any further!
Search for "star fortress" on this website FIRST! A lot of people have had bad experiences with them, although those who've had good ones tend to have bought soft parts like you. I haven't bought anything from them but there are plenty of others who have and the results have been inauspicious.
Good luck, for your sake I'm glad you mentioned this.
Just a little note...StarFortress' coveralls, flak vest, gloves, spats, and belt pouches are NOT screen accurate. Not sure about their wookie braids or cape since I've never seen them in person.
There is an entire thread about this company. Check it out first!!
like others have said.... SFP is NOT screen accurate at ALL.
Not only that, but they are unreliable!!!!

My first stab at bodywork and finish paint! videos
I've been around this stuff for almost 20 years, even shade tree restored/ modded 3 cars, but I have never actually dived in and tried to do all the body/paint work myself start to finish.
Well, the 19 year old paint and bodywork on my red Nova has bugged me for years. The car just isnt how I want it to be quality wise. I'm sure the average Joe would say it looks great, and it does. But to me, all I can see are the flaws.
I am a firm believer there is only one person who will ever lavish the love and attention to detail that a great car deserves and that is the owner. They are the only people who will spend the enormous amount of time on the thing to do it right.
I have decided to jump in and redo the Nova. And this time its going to be BLACK. How better to show off a car done really right?
Now it would be pretty dumb of me to learn on my prized Nova, when my son's rather ratty (but not terrible) 95 Camaro is just sitting out in the driveway while hes at school.
So I decided to tackle his battered hood, no dents but peeling CC and a zillion little rock chips.
After a couple weeks of sanding priming sanding filling and priming and sanding again!! I finally had it to where I thought it was topcoat ready. It was alot of work and I really didnt keep track of the hours, but I really do love this stuff!!
So armed with my Jerry rigged compressors and my $30 HF gun that I have been using to prime too!! This morning I finally shot the beast. 1 tack coat and 2 wet coats of PPG OMNI black Urethane Single stage.
Please check these videos of the result and let me know if I did good. Don't give up till you see #2
In the booth 20 min after 3rd coat
Cut and buff preview
Lots of pics on my homepage. Tell me what you think. I respect alot of the elders around here who have been a ton of help!!
Andy :thumbup:
For peeling CC, and "a zillion" rockchips. I would have stripped it, probably would have been quicker.
Looks good and straight. Pretty slick too, But th' trash, Dayum.
I know,... it'll sand and buff. But inna booth, I would expect it to be cleaner.
quick pointer, when you think it's clean, go away for a bit. Grab a pop, then come back, and blow and wipe again, "rinse, repeat". 'Till you come back and it's actually clean, then wipe it down with a clean lint free cloth, dampened with rubbin' alc.
Looks good. Let's see th' rest of the car. when yer done. :D
Talkin' Trash eh?
As for the trash... I'm painting in my garage/ booth...its not high tech at all.
I'm going to get better filters for the air intakes and maybe try painting with just one fan on instead of 2.
Luckily 99% of the trash just settled on top of the final coat. Did I mention this is my first time???
Andy :welcome:
Yep you mentioned that it's yer first time. And I'm tryin' to give constructive criticism.
Did you blow out the garage before you started?
Like I said, Looks good.
Also, no amount of precaution, will insure a perfectly clean job.
I painted a pickup several years ago. Two tone,black/silver Acrylic enamel. Turned out nice. (even amazed myself) Backed it out, washed it, dried it, called the customer to come get it. As he was pulling up a bird flew over and did what birds do. Crapped on th' hood. I washed it off, but it had already printed it. Thus ruining a decent paintjob. I swore off of Acryilic enamel, unless it's a work vehicle needing a cheap shine. Or I have time to let it properly cure.
No offense taken. I shop vac'd the bay the night before with a new bag, had it totally cleaned out. Then wet the floor down before I sprayed. I think what caused the dusty condition was too much fan and cheapo filters.
Ill do better next time Im sure of it.
Really a mute point any way as all the trash has already been sanded out and the hood is completely flat and ready for a good buffing tomorrow.
Thanks for your input, I DO appreciate it. :thumbup:
OH I'm using Urethane not Acrylic Enamel...That stuff shouldnt even be sold, its Crapola.
Finished up this morning! :-)
190 views and 1 guy responded?? Doesn't look THAT terrible does it??
Anyway, Here's the final video it shows the completed hood. Very pleased, the long hours were definitely worth it!
My Red Nova will be a Black Nova very soon... :) and THANKYOU to all the KNOWLEDGEABLE guys around here who have been giving me tips!!
I don't do the dampened cloth (it's already been wax and greased) so just a tack rag at this point. But leaving it for a while is a biggy, even over night, get it all ready, blow it off GOOD on the underside and all, AND the saw horses and then let it set like that, it's always a good way to go. :thumbup: Some times we get in too big of a hurry.
Where do you have the intake and exhaust in your "booth"? It's pretty hard to set something like that up, the air needs to move across the painting area but damn if you don't have it REALLY tight you are going to be sucking in all kinds of crap from around the filters. I don't only mean right at the filter but any gap anywhere in the room opposite the fan. We are talking the path of least resistance. If the air can get in someone besides the filter it's going to. I have personally never made up anything like that, I just put a fan down low at one end of the room to get the overspray out. It isn't very effective but it's a trade off, not that effective but less stuff in the paint.
The bad thing is, if you aren't getting that stuff out you are really cutting down the oxygen in the room and it's very dangerous if you aren't using a fresh air breathing setup.
Hey Brian,
Great to see you again! You were one of the people I was referring to and I'm always open to hear your opinions and advice. Thanks!
OK, here's the booth setup. its 12x22. 2 filters on the dividing wall between 2 garages (same size). They are 16x20 and about at eye level (6ft) spaced out evenly along the 22 ft wall. On the outside wall I have a attic fan 7ft up and centered in the 22 ft. I also have a old furnace fan about a foot off the floor and near the garage door.
Now, here is my theory about the dust...
First I completely cleaned any crap out the booth the night before all except for sawhorses and hood and air hose. I thoughly vac'd the floor with a commercial shop vac and new bag. The walls all have brand new paint and new salt treated "baseboard" all around the floor.
On the morning of painting, I lightly wetted the entire floor down and never opened the large outside door. I turned on the fans 1 hour before painting and left the room.
My theory is this: The furnace filters I am using are crap and the fans are sucking dust right through them. #2 I left the booth a couple times quickly thru an interior door.
Next time I'm getting new micro filters, turning 1 fan off and trying to not leave the booth at all.
NOW, which fan would be better to leave run? Up high, or down low? I value your opinion. :thumbup:
PS. lots of related pics on my homepage
I say down low, if the air can move out without going OVER the painting area I think you are better off. Again, this is NOT the proper way a booth works. With a real paint booth the air moves right past all your work. With a down draft like we have at work almost the entire roof is the intake and a giant filter. The exhaust is UNDER the car. It has a big hole under the car with a piece of metal covering the center of that hole leaving a gap around the edge of an inch or so, all the air comes down from the top and around that car with the overspray being taken away RIGHT NOW away from the work and going under the car.
But we are talking multiple filters that it is going thru. We are also talking a pressurized system where the air is is being pushed into the booth and being sucked out in a happy little dance. So it is quite different.
At home, in my personal opinion unless you have a LOT of air movement and a really good filter system you are best off to just get the damn overspray out before it falls on a wet finish and flattens it out.
You have gone to such lengths I am thinking you are pretty close to having a pretty decent "booth" and are doing a heck of a job. Where you go from here, I don't know. That dirt in the paint was coming from somewhere! Maybe do some kind of testing with smoke to see where the air is coming in? Maybe it is skipping the filter somehow. It looks like you have done a great job at making it air tight but maybe there is something you missed? But more likely it is coming thru the filters. I know old school was wetting the filters with water. I remember an old cross flow booth at a shop I worked at years ago we had a sprinkler out in front of the intake filters that would be turned on before spraying.
This isn't so good anymore with modern high solids iso kicking paints though.
Nice job! In the first post you made you show video 1 and 2, you should have shown 6 also, I saw that on the side of the youtube site and watched that one also, of course you did show the results later in the thread. That may be why not a lot of comments, they were waiting for the final results. Like Henry's (tech69) this would be a good one for the knowledge base, I would also like this in the lounge for more exposure but I'll leave it alone, it has some good tech advice. Verrrrry Nice! You're son will love this, you might have to do the rest of the car now..lol. Thanks for sharing, this shows what a guy can do at home. Dan
Thanks so much, I feel honored! I hope others see my videos and gain a little bit of info about the products and methods i am using. There is really nothing difficult here, just basic common sense about taking your time and trying to keep your work and work area as clean as humanly possible. I have had 3 other cars painted by lifetime body and paint guys who each had booths (albiet not super high tech downdraft operating room stuff) and every single one of those cars came out with just as much or almost as much dust settled ON TOP of the final wet coat of paint. Guess what? Thats the first thing that gets sanded off!! Its like a no brainer!!
Would I like less dust on my next project? Of course! I can truthfully say when I shot the first video I didnt even give the dust a second thought because I knew it was first to go. I was MUCH MORE concerned about how long it was going to take to get the more orange peely areas sanded down flat.
I'm surprised it had such an effect on people, but I guess they havent been around too many paintjobs that come out of less than perfect "booths".
Anyway, I have enjoyed the input and the discussion and I am on to the next project: My Nova that I have wanted to repaint for at least the last 6 years or so, just didnt have the money to pay someone else to do it!
CHEERS! :thumbup:
Looks good! It gives me hope as I can't afford to pay someone to paint my car either.

Well, it happens to the best of us...and I am certainly not the best.
Friday morning I sat in my tree stand for a quick hunt . There is a doe that had been coming in every morning for a few weeks finally I had the time to hunt their
Around 7:00 am seven point walked in and started feeding on the acorns. As I watched him for 10 min he was nice with good mass and he looked pretty gray, an older fellow.
It took me about 5 minutes to get ready to shoot because he was only 16 feet away and at the slightest noise he would look around for 30 seconds. I hit him a little higher than I would have liked but still believed I got lung. For the first time however I saw the arrow stuck in him as he ran off. I knew this wasn't good.
45 minutes later a buddy and I started looking for his trail. We found blood about 30 yards from where he entered the woods and followed it for 50 yards. Then we heard him crashing around and decided to come back the next morning.
Saturday morning we went out after my friend got a couple hours in at his stand. We found a real solid blood trail and followed it for a hundred yards up and down hills, over creeks, you know the drill. The blood was pinkish with bubbles and I knew I had hit lung. We found the arrow (the broadhead was broken off somehow) and the blood trail got real nice...for awhile. We found two beds, both within 20 yards of each other, one with a good amount of blood and the other with just a few drops. After that we found no more blood. After searching for 4 hours with four people we gave up so i call i guy with tracking dog and no luck
Sunday morning I went back and looked again to no avail for a few hours. Overall I want to throw up. I have never lost a deer before and I am just sick knowing that it is unlikely he lived after the amount of blood he lost and the fact that the broadhead is probably still in him.
get a phone call yesterday they found him 2 mile away from where i shot him too late to recover any meat. i call fish&game they came to take a look and i had to tag it oh well no meat but i took whats left I did the right thing . He was 4.5 to 5.5 years old what a shame

15 NEA State Affiliates Ran Budget Deficits, 25 Saw Decline in Dues Income
posted at 3:26 pm on October 22, 2012 by Mike Antonucci
An Education Intelligence Agency analysis of Internal Revenue Service filings reveals 15 NEA state affiliates experienced budget deficits in the 2010-11 school year, while the dues revenues for 25 state affiliates dropped off from the previous year.
The union as a whole lost 2 percent of its active membership that year, but increases in dues rates were able to limit the revenue losses to 0.3 percent (about $3.7 million). It's likely that the losses accelerated in 2011-12.
EIA created a table, now posted on its web site, that lists the financial figures for NEA and each of its 53 "state" affiliates (50 states plus the directly affiliated Federal Education Association, which represents NEA teachers overseas and on military bases, the University of Hawaii Professional Assembly, and the Utah School Employees Association). The numbers include each union's dues revenues, revenues from sources other than members' state dues (advertising income from union publications, grants from NEA, et al.), and the amount devoted to employee compensation. The statistics do not include the income of any of NEA's 14,000 locals.
The numbers in the table include not only salaries and benefits for current teacher union staff, but set-asides for their pensions and post-retirement health care. Twenty affiliates were able to reduce spending on staff compensation, partially through a reduction of 111 people, but the overall total still increased 1.2 percent from 2009-10. Dues revenue collected by the Michigan Education Association and the Oklahoma Education Association was insufficient to cover the costs of their employees' and retirees' pay and benefits.
The 15 affiliates that spent more than they took in from all sources were Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware, Georgia, Hawaii, Indiana, Maryland, Michigan, New Mexico, New York, Ohio, Rhode Island, Wisconsin, UHPA and USEA.
Despite these financial hardships, it is important to note that total dues income for NEA and its state affiliates still exceeded $1.4 billion for the year.
These figures provide a single-year snapshot of the union's budgetary health, but next week EIA will also provide statistics and analysis of the long-term trends and outlook for the state affiliates. Which states will weather the storm and which are in serious financial straits? What's the single largest threat to NEA's bottom line? The answer might surprise you.

Police: man who called in fake shooting was high, had seizure
Alleged suspect, victim, found safe
SANTA CRUZ, Calif. - Santa Cruz police say an all-out response to reports of an armed gunman walking around a neighborhood were spurred by a false report of a shooting by a man who was suspected of being under the influence of narcotics.
Just after 2:00 p.m. Thursday, officers were called to an apartment on Errett Cir. for reports that a domestic argument ended with a man shooting a woman then walking out onto the street.
When officers arrived, they identified the man who made the call as 24-year-old Kyle Lee Allala. He suffered a seizure as officers tried collecting further information to assist in the manhunt. He was transported to Dominican Hospital for treatment.
As all of that happened officers, along with SWAT, locked down a school at Garfield Park Church and sent a reverse 911 call advising area residents to shelter in place. A county aircraft helped secure the perimeter as officers searched for the alleged gunman, who they still thought was on the loose.
Officers eventually located the 44-year-old man reported to be the gunman. As he was interviewed, it became increasingly clear that no shooting had ever happened, as reported. Investigators also contacted the 33-year-old woman who was reportedly shot and feared dead. She was alive and well, and not at the apartment.
Teams conducted a final sweep to make sure there were no other victims or threats. After clearing everything, they opened roads, the school and let residents know they were safe to leave their homes.
As investigators followed up with Allala, they learned he was under the influence of narcotics. He was arrested and charged with numerous drug crimes and for making a false report of a crime. Santa Cruz police say he was also arrested in 2012 but didn't go into detail.

a place for zinesters - writers and readers
I scanned images in from a Haggadah from 1848, used a number of texts to clarify the ritual order and highlight events. I clearly and completely call out the ritual actions and explain the symbols. This Haggadah is meant for my seders at home and for gifts for a few family members I can't share Passover with. (01-04-10)
