Moon Creek couple loses home to fire
Gene and Judith Griffith of the Moon Creek area west of Miles City had just gone to bed Saturday night when they smelled smoke. Since they had been using a wood stove earlier in the evening, they got up to check and saw smoke in the light fixtures in their living room. When Gene went outside, he saw smoke coming out of the roof. So he decided to check the attic from the access hatch.
When he saw the flames, he and Judith and the dog headed outside. Judith forgot her purse but did remember to grab her cellphone, so she could call the fire department. While the Griffiths had nothing but praise for the firefighters, they live some distance from town on Moon Creek. so by the time Custer County Rural Volunteer Fire Company arrived, their new home was a total loss.
Fortunately, the Griffiths had insurance and plan to begin rebuilding as soon as possible. In addition, Judith said that the response from people who heard about the fire has been "really overwhelming." Murdoch's gave them a discount to replace their wardrobe.
"People should be very proud of this town," she said, in reference to the generosity and kindness shown to her and her husband.
The greatest loss was the "wall of mounts" that represented her husband's 50 years of hunting. He will start working on replacing them while they begin to rebuild.

Using a version control tool for notebooks is not so difficult : the real
trouble comes from the notebook cache and eventually the graphics.
When CVS was the only available tool for version control, a solution had been
developped by Tim Wichmann :
His perl script stripped out irrelevant data, and I used it with version 5.0
without noticing errors - but that does not mean the whole process is error
free !
When it comes to subversion, using subversion does not lead to any trouble at
all : subversion does not have CVS limitations like needing files with end of
line characters, and stores any file as a stream of bytes (and supposes you
have a reasonable modern hard drive, with reasonable free space for a
multimedia era). The difficulty arises when you want to perform 'diff'
because then the cache is involved.
The Wolfram team is now developping a dedicated tool :
which provides version control. If I had no versioning tool already running
(subversion) I for sure would give it a try.

I'm going to send the emblems to those that have paid today.
To those that have not paid yet:
tteF aboB
I will send them as soon as I receive payment.
I'm still waiting on a few more payments, so that I can send these off tomorrow all at once, thanks guys.
I see a few here that have not received ROTJ or ESB shoulder decals, PM me soon and I'll include it, courtesy of me and Ego:D
To those that have paid, I'm sorry for making you wait (PM me if these are needed sooner).
I just finished printing these and they are ready to go. I'm just waiting on the info. and payments of those that are signed up and then I can send them all out together.
I printed up a few extras so it's not too late for those who have not ordered:D
Again, please include your TDH name on your pay-pal note section.
I'll be working on another project next;)
*Update 4/16*
I have had some more interest from people who want some of these and missed out on the first run. I'm considering printing more of these next week, so if you want to sign up for them, post them here.
Include how many you want and weathered or clean.
(I still have a few more ESB shoulder emblems left that I could include if you didn't get one yet, again thanks to Ego:D ROTJ and ESB version 2.0 is still in the works;))
1)Halo_1: (1)Weathered;)PAID
2)Han Hunter: (2)Weathered PAID
3)CBT Fett: (1)Weathered PAID
4)Hammerhead: (1)Weathered (ESB shoulder)PAID

*For those who have received them and have not posted yet, please do so, just so I can keep track:D
*Update 4/10*
I just dropped these off at the post office:)
Let me know when you receive them. I threw in a bonus or two:D
By the way, you can weather these before or after you remove the border around them.
When removing the emblem itself, be careful not to rip off the ends of the "wheat" and make sure your fingers are clean so that no dirt will go on the adhesive side of the decals.
Like the shoulder emblems, you can apply these using the dry method making sure you slowly apply it and press down the decal from top to bottom or visa versa.
You can also go the wet method by mixing about a teaspoon of water with a touch of dishwashing liquid (not much, literally a touch:)) and wetting the adhesive part of the decal thoroughly as well as the area you will put it on. Place it where you want, place the backing of the decal on it shiny side down (so hopefully you didn't throw it away) and squeegee it with a credit card until all the water is gone. Let dry and you're done!
*Update 4/09/03*
(By the way while I was stuffing the envelopes, the amount I printed was just enough to fill all the orders I had with one or two extras. So for those who missed out, if there is enough interest, I might do another run.)
I put in the decals today and these are ready to be mailed, but I don't think I can make it to the post office in time, so I might have to send them off tomorrow. Sorry for the delay.
Thanks everyone:D
Finally got around to printing some of these:D. Here are the final pictures (1)clean w/ first color (2)clean w/final color
(3)weathered (4)ref. picture
The pictures shown is a few shades darker than the actual paint color, but the new color is pretty close to the ref. picture)
The clean version is $4.25 and the weathered version is $5.00 shipped:)
My Pay-pal address is firstname.lastname@example.com
Please include your TDH name on the note section.
Again you have to provide your own misting of spray paint for more weathering and you can also use matte spray to kill any shine.
Please include which one you want and how many.
The first 10 who order gets a corresponding extra of the first color I printed:D.
As promised:

"Round Midnight is a tenor sax and muted trumpet feature. This would be an ideal performance piece for A/S or A Level for either instrument. It is a highly atmospheric number with very sophisticated harmonies. It might be a bit complex for school audiences, but will stretch, challenge and satisfy the players if taught with enthusiasm. The two flute parts (both surprisingly marked 'optional') contribute wonderful moments to the scoring with low trills and parallel thirds, although they would need amplification in many acoustics."

10 Hardy Perennial Plants You Can Eat
Here are some hardy perennials for your consideration.
1. Asparagus
I remember growing up and going on spring walks with my mom and grandmother in Colorado. They would occasionally stop and pull up the tender green shoots from the ground, which would show up later that day on the dinner table. That was all I knew about asparagus until I grew up and started learning about growing my own food and wildcrafting.
Asparagus is generally hardy in zones 3 to 8. It likes well-drained soil with good sun exposure, and the shoots pop out of the ground when the soil temperatures rise above 50 degrees Fahrenheit. Nutritionally, it is high in Vitamin A, Vitamin B1, Vitamin B2, Vitamin C, Vitamin K, folate and iron.
If you are looking to grow asparagus in one of the colder zones, you will want to be especially choosy about what variety of asparagus to grow. One suggestion for a variety that will emerge later than other varieties (and thus have less risk of damage from spring freezing) is Guelph Millennium.
2. Rhubarb
Rhubarb is another hardy perennial that I remember when growing up in Colorado. Rhubarb tends to be very cold hardy and most varieties can stand a lot of neglect and still produce a good crop. It is native to Siberia, so that tells you something about how hardy it can be. It actually needs a period of good frost time in order to grow good hearty stems in the spring. Rhubarb is hardy to zone 1 and prefers fertile, partially shaded, free-draining soil. Harvest in the spring and into the summer. Remove any seed stalks that shoot up to extend harvest.
While the leaves of rhubarb are toxic, the stems are quite tasty and useful. They can be used to make jams and jellies, cobblers, salads, pies (the reason its called Pie Plant by some old timers), and Im sure even more gourmet dishes that I havent had the chance to try. Some like to chew on a piece of rhubarb on a hot summer day. Nutritionally, rhubarb is high in several B-complex vitamins and vitamin K. Red stalked rhubarb contains significant amounts of vitamin A.
If you know someone in your area with a rhubarb patch, ask them if they can donate some to you the next time they divide theirs out. This should happen in the late fall/winter, when the rhubarb is dormant. This is the best way to get a variety that will do well in your area.
3. Alpine Strawberries
Alpine strawberries, otherwise known as woodland strawberries, are another option to use as a perennial crop option. While you wont get enough to harvest and make jam anytime soon, you will be able to harvest berries from early spring and into fall. Alpine strawberries are small berries that pop with intense strawberry flavor and offer your body Vitamin A and C, potassium and manganese. They also serve as a digestive aid.
Alpine strawberries are generally hardy in zones 3-10, and need only 6 hours of direct sun a day to fruit, so take that into account when determining where to put them. They may be started from seed, or gotten from some plant nurseries. Do not crowd plants, and try not to water the leaves when watering, as they can be prone to fungus if put in continually damp conditions.
4. Groundnuts (Apios Americana)
Groundnuts, a native plant used by native Americans in eastern North America, are hardy down to zone 3. These are not peanuts, as one might at first think. The plant grows into a long 4-6 foot vine that produces leaves in spring, flowers June-September, and tubers in the fall that taste something like a nutty potato or roasted sweet potato. A bonus is that the plants are nitrogen-fixing and beneficial to the soil. Harvest is in the fall.
Groundnuts need full sun to partial shade, as well as moist, well-drained soil. They will also benefit from a shrub nearby, as they naturally grow in woods and thickets. Nutritionally, they are a source of protein, Vitamin B1 and Vitamin B2. They can be eaten raw, cooked or dried and ground into a powder to thicken soups or add with flours to baked goods.
5. Good King Henry
Good King Henry, like spinach and quinoa, is a perennial member of the Chenopod family of plants. Hardy down to zone 3, the first sprouts and shoots can be eaten like asparagus in spring, the leaves can be cooked and eaten like spinach, and the seeds of the plant can be harvested later in the year and used as a grain (much like quinoa-the grain will need to be rinsed before cooking).
Some other names for Good King Henry are: Lincolnshire spinach, poor mans asparagus and perennial goosefoot. The plant likes partial shade, and tends to take over an area if left to its own devices (you may prevent too many seeds starting new plants by plucking off many of the flower (they are edible, too). The plant is rich in Vitamin A, Vitamin C, iron and calcium.
6. Jerusalem Artichoke
Hardy down to zone 2, Jerusalem artichoke is another plant native to North America. It thrives in the cooler northern states and climates, and even naturalizes itself if left to its own devices. Jerusalem artichokes, also known as sunchokes, are not artichokes from Jerusalem. They are tubers that grow in the root system of a plant that looks much like a smallish wild sunflower above ground.
Jerusalem artichokes are a tuber that is high in inulin, unlike most starchy vegetables, making them suitable for diabetics. The texture of the raw tuber is much like a water chestnut, and they taste somewhat like an artichoke. Others describe the cooked tubers to taste like a nutty potato. Be warned: Some people do experience gastric upset, especially when eating it raw. Just try a little bit at first and see how your body fares before eating a lot of it, to see if this particular plant suits you.
Jerusalem artichokes prefer full sun and well-drained soil. They are high in iron, potassium and many B vitamins.
7. French Sorrel
French Sorrel, a relative of both rhubarb and buckwheat, is hardy to zone 3. It has a sour, tangy flavor (probably the reason its also called lemonade in a leaf) that makes it more suitable as an addition to other foods, as opposed to making an entire side dish or majority of a meal from it. It can be eaten raw or cooked. It is high in Vitamin C, and often the first plant settlers ate in spring.
8. Thunderchild crabapple
Let us not forget crabapples, those pretty trees in spring that produce small sour apples later in the year. Many varieties of crabapples are hardy to the lower zones and can be a source of calcium, vitamin A, Vitamin C and iron. Dont forget, they can be made into jellies, are a great source for homemade pectin, and they can be used to make your own apple cider vinegar.
Crabapple trees prefer full sun and well-drained soil. Make sure you pick a crabapple that will bear fruit, and not a variety that has been developed just for the flowers alone.
One particularly hardy variety is the Thunderchild crabapple, which is hardy to zone 3 and can handle temperatures down to -40°F.
9. Wild Roses
Wild roses can offer a notable source of vitamin C when the plants bear rose hips in the fall. They also provide many, many other vitamins, minerals and nutrients in their little fruits. Wild rose hips can be grown where citrus fruits cannot be grown. In fact, they have been used for one of the main sources of vitamin C during wartimes when citrus fruits were unavailable. They are hardy to zone 4 or lower. True wild roses have exactly 5 petals. Do some wildcrafting and see if you cant find some already growing in your area.
Many old-timers considered the wild roses to be a weed, as it has a way of taking over an area. If you decide to add wild roses to your land, be aware of this habit of the plant. The plants are thorny and may help create a barrier against intruders, but this can be a bad thing if you have to wrestle the plant back every year. If you have an area that seems suitable for a roaming plant, roses will likely grow there, as they are a particularly hardy plant. The roots of the wild rose offer very effective erosion control as well.
10. Currants
The Currant is a thorny deciduous shrub hardy down to zone 3. Some are even hardy down to zone 2. Currants were banned in the 1920s due to the thought that they helped to spread a fungal disease that hurt the timber industry. Fast forward to the present, and currants are making a comeback. Check to see whether there are any bans in your state before growing them.
Red and black currants contain four times the Vitamin C as oranges, and twice the beneficial antioxidants of blueberries. Red currants are considered to be the best, producing great clusters of the red berries that are easily picked. They can be used for jams and jellies, beverages, syrups, or eaten out of hand.

When Cody came to Roger Williams University he knew one thing for certain: he wanted to study International Relations. What he didn't know was where his major and his love of languages would take him. Cody spent his entire junior year in Jordan studying the language and working with Palestinian and Iraqi refugees as well as helping with community development projects. He was swimming…well…floating in the Dead Sea, stayed with Bedouin nomadic tribes in the desert of Wadi Rum, visited Petra, went scuba diving around coral reefs and sunken tanks in the Red Sea and completed a 150 mile running race in 19 hours from the Dead Sea to the Red Sea, cutting through the heart of Jordan's desert region. Cody brought new meaning to the phrase Learning to Bridge the World.
"For being somewhat of an international relations/political science nerd it really doesn't get a lot more exciting than this. Jordan is a pillar of stability teetering cozily between Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Syria and Israel, and is just a short drive from Lebanon."
Did he ever expect all this from RWU?
"I could not have told you in a million years that my education would lead me to Jordan had you asked me as I was enrolling into Roger Williams University. However, I knew that I wanted to study politics and found it very interesting that both Arabic and Chinese were offered languages at the time I was making my decision. I visited the campus, heard good things about the Political Science/International Relations departments, was drawn to (and impressed by) the, "Bridging the World," mentality promoted by the University, and made my decision. I remain very pleased with this choice and owe a lot to the guidance of the excellent professors within the International Relations department, and to my advisor, for getting me to where I am today."

The Canisius volleyball team couldn't finish its fifth-set rally losing to Iona College in the Hynes Athletic Center on Saturday afternoon. The Gaels won 26-24, 21-25, 14-25, 25-19, 18-16 as Canisius drops to 16-11 overall and 13-4 in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference.
Senior Samantha Good continued her dominant play, posting a career-high 24 kills with five blocks and a .488 attack percentage. Junior Jessica Warner had a double-double with 10 kills and 17 digs. Junior Sydney Palka had 54 assists while senior Allyson Severyn recorded 38 digs.
"Our first touch on service reception wasn't good enough today, and we couldn't get enough points from our outside hitters when we needed them," Canisius coach Cathy Hummel said. "It was a tough day against an Iona team that has improved a lot."
The teams opened the match with two close sets. In the opening set, Iona scored four of the first five points but after Canisius tied the score at 4-4, neither team held more than a two-point lead the rest of the set. After a kill from senior Logan Sulongga put Canisius up 24-22, the Gaels would fight off two set points and took four straight points to win the first set 26-24 on a service ace from Alicja Pawelec.
Canisius trailed on only one point in the second set when Iona led 9-8. The Griffs reclaimed the lead with back-to-back kills from junior Emily Elek to make it 10-9. Iona tied the score twice but could never get the lead back as Canisius won the set by taking the final three points. Sulongga and Warner each had a kill while sophomore Emily Litwin clinched the set with a service ace.
The Griffs broke the third set open by scoring five straight points and using a 10-2 run to build an 18-10 lead. Good had two kills during the run and combined with Palka on one block and with Sulongga on another block. After Iona cut the deficit to five points at 19-14, the Griffs won the final six points of the set, including two kills from freshman Lauren Siebert, to take the set. Iona forced a fourth set when the Gaels took the final five points of that set, to win it 25-19.
In the fifth set, Canisius won four of the first five points, but the Gaels battled back and tied the score at 5-5. A dump kill from freshman Grace Streicher gave Canisius an 8-7 lead, but Iona scored the next two points to go up 9-8. A kill from Siebert off the block knotted the score at 9-9. The teams traded sideouts before Iona won two straight points, including a service ace off the tape to go up 12-10. Down 14-11, Canisius would fight off three match points and get its own match point at 15-14, but the Gaels used a kill from Taylor Cembalisty to tie the score at 15-15. After the 24th kill of the day from Good put Canisius up 16-15, the Gaels fought off the second Canisius match point on another kill from Cembalisty. Iona then used a kill from Catrina Warren and a block from Warren and Cembalisty to win the match.
Pawelec led all players with 25 kills and also had 15 digs. Warren also posted a double-double with 15 kills and 10 digs. Iona improved to 9-2 at home this season, with both losses coming in five sets.
The Griffs conclude the regular season on Sunday, facing Fairfield University in Alumni Hall. Match time is set for 2 p.m.
A win for the Griffs over the Stags would give Canisius a share of its first MAAC regular-season title in program history. The Griffs would win the seeding tiebreaker and be the No. 1 seed (playing Niagara) in next week's MAAC Championship (Nov. 17-18 at Fairfield University). If Canisius loses, the Griffs will be the No. 3 seed (playing Siena) if Niagara also loses. If the Griffs lose and Niagara wins, the Griffs will be the No. 4 seed (playing Fairfield).
Notes: Canisius falls at Iona for the sixth consecutive season... After winning seven straight sets that go to extra points, the Griffs have lost their last three sets and are now 7-4 in sets with extra points this season... The 24 kills by Good are the most by a Golden Griffin since Mary Boller had 24 kills against Rider on Oct. 16, 2006... Warner had a career high for digs and her team-best sixth double-double of the season... Sulongga posted at least 13 kills for the third time in the last six matches... Litwin recorded double-digit digs for the seventh time this season... Palka had at least 50 assists for the third time in the last six matches... Severyn matched her career high with the 38 digs (Oct. 28 at Loyola).

The Trump Administration is taking unprecedented action to do away with our national monuments - putting tens of millions of acres of public land, YOUR land, at risk.
Don't let Trump destroy what took decades to protect. Donate Now.
Six U.S. senators have asked Secretary of the Interior Sally Jewell to delay decisions about new leasing and exploration for offshore oil and gas until the government completes a thorough re-evaluation of the environmental and safety risks, and issues enhanced, Arctic-specific regulations.
The Forest Jobs and Recreation Act passed out of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee on Dec. 19, advancing a years-long campaign to protect almost a million acres of incredible backcountry throughout western Montana, including over 600,000 acres of new Wilderness Area.
This past year many promising achievements were made to conserve our spectacular wild lands.
Wilderness Areas in the United States- (Drag and Zoom for specific regions)
This coming year, wilderness needs your voice more than ever. Our nation's wild places continue to disappear at alarming rates, while climate change and other human made pressures are stressing wild lands to the point of no return.
New Mexico's Organ Mountains-Desert Peaks officially became a new national monument on May 21, riding a wave of local support and fulfilling a promise made by President Barack Obama in his State of the Union address t
Public lands generate about 4.5 times more atmospheric carbon than they are currently able to absorb, according to a
Renewable energy will continue to fuel President Barack Obama's nationwide climate action plan, said the White House today in an executive order on clean energy.
Sen. Mark Udall (D-CO) announced on Dec. 3 that he will introduce a bill this month to designate central Colorado's Browns Canyon as a national monument, with nearly half of that newly-protected land to be set aside as wilderness.
Trump is trying to open the Arctic Refuge to oil drilling. Tell Congress to defend this wild place.

One of my first mobile moments this morning was a text from my husband on WeChat announcing that he had a Lark sleep quality rating of 9.4. We've become competitive sleepers. The Lark is a wearable device worn on the wrist at night to track the quality (e.g., number of times awake) and length of sleep. Activating the device requires you to set an alarm (and lets me know how few hours I have to sleep). The device wakes you by vibrating on your wrist. Disarming it in the morning includes journaling information on how you feel and what occurred that may have helped you to sleep well or disrupted your sleep.
While I love this device, in April Lark announced it will discontinue making hardware, but support existing units. It's retained hardware staff to continue to understand how to make the most of data collected from sensors on the phones. Similarly, Nike didn't announce it was discontinuing the FuelBand, but there were rumors it had laid off its hardware team.
Why these shifts?
These devices and apps are creating mobile moments by sharing basic data, a concept outlined in our new book, The Mobile Mind Shift. But, the excitement of reaching milestones of 5,000 or 10,000 steps a day or shifting your sleep behavior quickly fades once consumers have a sense of what it takes to reach these goals. In fact, overtime data can even demotivate individuals.
In order to change consumer behavior in the long-term, these wearables must offer effective engagement mechanisms that create relevant mobile moments that change over time with consumer needs. To succeed requires:

Guys I was wanting some info on some descent mountain bikes. Im trying to get into the sport, esp since I have problems running with my back.
My dad purchased a "Vertical" bike several years ago at a police auction it was a wonderful bike however he has let it sit out and rust while I was away at college and all the gears have stripped/gone out.
I was trying to find similar bikes online but cant find the brand, was wondering if this was a bike worth buying parts and fixing or should I invest in a new one...all the parts it needs would wind up costing about the same as a new one
Any suggestions looking to spend 300 to 350 nothing greatly expensive but nothing cheap either. All my buddys have "mongoose" and have great success. Was looking at them.
I had a pacific until my dad purchased his vertical and will never have another one of those again.

Discussion in 'General MMA discussion' started by smfowns4, Dec 6, 2012.
Who cares, Dana changes his mind 2 weeks later anyways hahaha. Dana saying anyone is #1 contender before the fight should be taken with a massive grain of salt.
Yeah Jonny hit it on the head there. Henderson was the number one contender at one point too. Also the Sonnen vs Jones fight is almost 5 months after the Rua vs Gustafsson fight, which means the number one contender would be sitting on the bench for 8-12 months before fighting putting them at a disadvantage. Not unheard of, but certainly not ideal.
good, neither Hendo or Machida deserve it
It depends on who wins. I think of Gusto wins he will do as Diaz or Condit did and sit out and wait for their shot but if Shogun wins i'd imagine he will have to fight Rampage/Glover or Hendo/Machida. Also i think it depends on how Gusto or Shogun win. If Gusto wins via quick explosive TKO then he will most definitely get the shot but if he wins a hard grinding out victory there will be some doubt. Same goes for shogun. We will see on sat. CANT WAIT!!!!!
machida made a huge mistake turning down the Jones fight... bigger mistake than Jones made.
If Hendo happens to beat Machida(don't think he will) he would deserve the shot more than Gusto or Rua.
Gusta needs to fight more top comp before he fights Jon. He'd be more of a threat after 3 fights that clean the division maybe less. SHogun has no excuse he should fight Jon if he wins, I know it sounds funny. You have to consider that Gusta was subbed by Davis, who I think is a great grappler, and has not had to fight of his back too much. Jon will put him on his back, I don't think Gusta's movement will do him much good, he's gonna wait for Jones to come forward and either get down or lay down.
Im sure he will reconsider and find a guy coming off a loss and/or suspension instead..but that is ok because the WWF esque fans like it.
+1 I just dont see him beating Machida thou
I don't see why people are upset or confused. Dana had several hundred clones of himself made up years ago and now resides in stasis awaiting a cure for ageing. Dana hasn't changed his mind at all, it's just that the clones all have their own opinions that differ from one another's.
And at the press conference of UFC 157 he tells us that Machida vs Hendo is for 1# contender.
Dana is just promoting his upcoming fights.
This..... I don't even think "top contender mentions" from Dana deserve a new thread anymore lol. It would be interesting if someone could pull some stats from the past 2 years on how accurate Dana's pre-fight contender predictions are
Just like he said Chael would have to get 3 or 4 wins and beat someone like Forrest before he got a shot at LHW. Look what we got a few weeks later. His word means NOTHING!
It took me up until all the crap that went down yesterday, (far too long), but I'm finally coming to terms with and accepting the fact that "earning" a title shot means absolutely nothing in the UFC, and I should just disregard anytime the words are uttered from Dana White's deceiving mouth...
I'll expect the big money/most entertaining fights to be made first and foremost from now on without any "perceived" rankings and or credibility of the sport added into the equation of deciding who deserves or has earned anything, and be completely unsurprised.
And with that, I am officially welcoming myself to the new UFC, where money, entertainment, and deception is valued over sport and credibility.
do these thoughts ever lead you to conspiracys?
this line right here is what bugs me...........you say "new ufc"..........the UFC hasn't changed. They have been doing this stuff for YEARS
Dana is very much like Bob Arum....he'll go where the $ is.. Like neonjefe said
I love that some of you feel that you have stake in the company. It's a good sign. What I find suspect is this talk of "the new UFC" and acting as if this is something new. The UFC has always been a for-profit organization, and is before anything else, a BUSINESS. It is in the business of pleasing the fans in an attempt to increase revenue. They do what is necessary to grow their business, and the sport of MMA. All of the other organization have failed because they try to be different from the UFC, and you should realize that. You can talk about Bellator all you want, but realize that Bellator is only around because of the success of the UFC, and it's "earn a title shot" system wouldn't have lasted a month without the UFC laying the massive amounts of ground work to get MMA where it is today.
I was a fan of Prides tournament style approach, but they still had title fights based on popularity as well. This is nothing new, and it blows my mind how people can act like the UFC is doing something unfair here. THEY HAVE TO MAKE MONEY TO SUCCEED! So sit back, and enjoy the fights, and remember that these "unearned" title shots are the reason that you get to watch MMA at all.
True, but it's just really started to come full circle for me lately, which is what I'm getting at with the "new UFC."
It's "new" to me because of the fact that I hadn't picked up on any of what I should have been seeing clearly until now.
I've just been blind to all of the inconsistencies up to this point because they've been far and fewer in between, almost hidden to me in a sense.
But now that it's happening alot more often, and thus becoming alot more noticeable where it's to the point of just being completely vivid, blunt, and palpable, I have finally come to the realization of just accepting the UFC for what it IS, and as you stated already HAS been.
Separate names with a comma.

Re: Romney vs Obama?
SOLO - You're right about Exxon selling to the highest bidder and right now
that's China. We're splitting all the oil up with them. Even the drilling done here
is sent to China and they have a new oil company equivalent to Exxon that is now
even bigger and more prosperous and it has only been in existence for 13 years. The China situation doesn't improve prices here.
Spammy is right about the far right like me. That's why I said on the other
thread I might not vote. Over 30M Christians didn't vote in 08 not even after
Palin joined the ticket.
Yet, it will be a closer race too close to call.

I view it as a choice between a used band aid sandwich and a steak sandwich that sat out overnight for 3 days. Technically one choice is better but I'm not rushing to embrace either.

Re: Romney vs Obama?
The GOP's main problem isn't because Obama is this wonderful incumbent, who is unbeatable in November.
The GOP's main issue is the GOP. The party is incredibly fractured right now and, although it pains me to say, it's the conservatives who are mucking it up right now. Santorum is the perfect example.
The far right of the party have become so inflexible, they cannot see the forest through the trees. This was never the case in the late 80's and into the 90's. Candidates who represent the most extreme parts of their particular party rarely make it to the stage of the Presidency, (Reagan, Nixon, Carter and Obama not withstanding). It's unrealistic to assume that a far right candidate is going to unseat ANY incumbent. It's simply not in the realm of possibility. There must be a moderate candidate if the opposing party ever stands a chance.
We saw this play out in the micro in Delaware with Christine O'Donnell. The right had a sure winner in Michael Castle. But the conservatives in the state ran away from Castle, saying he "wasn't conservative enough" and elected O'Donnell in the primary. That same stubbornness is on display right now in the Presidential race.
Re: Romney vs Obama?
Exactly right.
That's what Spammy was talking about with the extreme righties like me. We're looking for
a Ronald Reagan and there are none but wait a minute. Even Reagan raised taxes 13 times. We knew W wasn't a conservative and he proved it. So who are we supposed to believe. We made that mistake before by voting for him.
Romney is more liberal than W and OBUMMER CARE is patterned after ROMNEY CARE which
has Mass in debt by billions more since its inactment. I can't believe him when he says
he'll repeal OBY CARE because he has lied so much before.
The GOP will shoot itself in the foot once again. Conservatives need to break off with the
Tea Party and form it's own party.

Another solid jobs report to be released on Friday regarding March job growth. ADP numbers came out above 200,000 again. Higher than expected. I am in Quito for the week with only a smartphone so no links from me.
Sent from my DROIDX using Tapatalk
Unemployment still above when Obama was elected. Gas prices going through the roof. About to have his signature and highly unpopular legislation overturned, and in the process showed his lack of knowledge of the Constitution. Submitted two budgets that garnered zero votes. Told the Russians to stay quiet until he gets re-elected so he can be more "flexible" about stabbing our allies in the back. Pissed off Canada so much by axing the Keystone Pipeline, and killing American jobs, that they will no longer supply their oil only to us AND will cease the discount that they gave us for buying it.
But hey Galen, if this jobs report is all you can cling to in order to feel good about your man, that's OK with me. Lord knows you don't want to highlight any of Obama's other job performances.

Re: Romney vs Obama?
LOL - Galen missed this detail as he always omits the facts.
However, Federal Reserve policymakers cautioned that recent solid gains in hiring could fizzle if U.S. economic growth remains "out of sync."
Meanwhile, unemployment remains unchanged for March at 8.3%, which is down only
from 8.8% 12 months ago.
Wait for the link the next time Galen.
BTW, I just saw two friends this week I haven't seen in a while. They're both unemployed
and have been for a year. The guy looked down right bad and the girl is worried about
being evicted. My cousin has been unemployed for 2 years.
There's still 15M Americans unemployed and another 15M with part time jobs because they
can't get full time work.

No hate Galen. We're just laughing at you because you miss the facts that job growth
was unchanged at 8.3%. That's not good news and the link shows it gets worse with
the economy being "out of sync."
Here's the good news. OBYs illegal immigrant uncle(EVERYONE IN OBY'S FAMILY IS ILLEGAL

|Topic Review (Newest First)
The Drift recorded at 1920x1080 by default. The Roam recorded at 1280x720
I brought both cameras to Seymour today. For the record, I should point out that the Roam is Contour's cheapest model, while the Drift 1080p is not. The most significant difference that this makes is that the Roam doesn't have a replaceable battery.
I wanted to do the comparison with both cameras on goggle mounts, but I wasn't able to find my Contour goggle mount. So my comparison is done with the Roam mounted on top of my helmet and the Drift on a goggle mount. The drift goggle mount is quite good in that it's curved, quite large, and has a rough inner surface to hopefully hold better against the helmet. Having said that, all goggle mounts suck. The big problem is that with most helmets, when your goggles are on your face the mount is partly or completely sitting on the ear covers, which provides poor support.
Each brand of camera uses a different technique for clipping the camera to the mount. The Drift's system is larger and easier to handle with gloves, and in fact I was able to clip and unclip the camera from the goggle mount without taking off my helmet or gloves. I might be able to eventually do that with the Roam, but it would take two hands and I'd probably have to take off one or both gloves.
On the other hand, the clip on the Drift is kind of delicate. I broke one of my two clip-on units while figuring out the camera.
The Roam turns on and off using a large, easy-to-find switch on the camera. The Drift has a remote control that straps to your wrist (or whatever). The first difference that I ran into was the on/off beep. On the Contour, you can clearly hear the beep when you turn it on or off. Plus of course, you can feel where the switch is. With the Drift, the ON beep was audible through the helmet but the OFF beep was not. I understand the remote on the new Drift Ghost has feedback, probably an LED light to indicate if it's recording. Definitely an option worth having.
The Drift has a 1.5" square screen on the side. There's no equivalent on the Roam. I found that the visual feedback on the Drift could be brighter. At one point I thought my up/down buttons had stopped working. I eventually realized that I just wasn't seeing the focus change from one setting to the next. I'd expect that the 2" screen on the Ghost would be better for this.
Finally -- The actual videos. I found the Drift video image to be brighter, but I notice that the Drift doesn't handle changes in light levels as well. When you move from shadow to sunlight, the image is washed out for a second or two. The Roam handled the change in light level significantly better. However, the Roam video seemed flatter, as if there's less overall difference in brightness. Overall, I'd give a slight edge to the Roam video for watchability. Of course, both videos are shaky, but that's the way they were mounted.
Some other miscellaneous comments, that may or may not make a difference:
The Roam back end is WAY easier to open and close.
The Drift wrist strap could be bigger.
The Drift does not seem to have an anchor point for a safety lanyard.
And one BIG comment:
The ability to review your videos on the lift on the way up is a game changer. Sorry, but the Drift would have to totally blow it on some level to lose this comparison, at least as far as I'm concerned.
I'll be posting up the comparison videos shortly. They're uploading to youtube right now.
I have the older model Drift HD 720. For me it's useful for lining up your shot, to see if you have too much snow, too much sky, etc.
I do review videos on breaks at the lodge but other models use wifi that allows you to view on your phone which is a cool feature. I don't know if this is available on the new Drift models.
I don't know if they fixed this but my issue with the wrist band button on my model is that the damn band is made for small bone people, the damn thing doesn't fit around my wrist, so I can't use that feature.
Drift 1080p Helmet Cam
I originally bought a Contour Roam a year or two back. Got an excellent price, and couldn't pass it up. The Roam had some problems, though. For one, there's a problem with the microphone that's a known issue and isn't being adequately addressed by Contour. The bigger problem I've found though is the inability to review your videos. In one case, I took an entire day's worth of vids with the lens rotated upside-down. In many other cases, several videos would be unusable because of crap on the lens and I wouldn't know about it until I got home.
At one point I considered buying a small cheap notebook computer to keep in the car for reviewing videos on the mountain, but really that's just throwing good money after bad. So I looked around and found a demo unit being sold for cheap at Launch Helmetcams. Again, couldn't pass it up.
This is the older Drift camera with the smaller screen -- 1.5"x1.5", as opposed to the 2x2 on the new Ghost. Still, completely acceptable for a tryout and I figure if I really like it I'll end up getting the high-end unit.
Initial Impressions
The Drift and the Contour are almost exactly the same size and weight, which is probably not coincidence. They have the same types of mounting options available, i.e. goggle mount, helmet mount, handlebar mount, etc. While the Roam has a large easy-to-use switch on top, the Drift has a remote on/off unit that you can wear like a watch. The buttons on the remote are big enough to manipulate with gloves on. Both units beep when starting and stopping. One small downside of the Drift is that you have to turn it on using the small menu button on the unit before it will obey the remote. But it doesn't draw much on standby so you could probably leave it on all day. There's an option in the settings to have it turn off automatically after a certain inactive duration.
Both cameras have rotating lenses, but only the Contour has the alignment lasers. Both cameras are rated as waterproof to a couple of meters, as long as you don't get nuts. They both use the same MicroSD card, although I think the Contour is pickier about brand and type (just from comments made on the forum).
I will be testing the Drift this weekend, weather allowing, and will post some sample videos and my impressions of the camera in use. The big question will be whether being able to review the video right away will make a practical difference.

Film: "Ronde Sare Viah Pichhon"; Cast: Harish Verma, Neeru Bajwa, Navneet Nishan, Jaswinder Bhalla, Gugu Gill and Rajpal Yadav; Director: Vijay Kumar Arora; Producers: Aparna Sud and Brinder Sran; Rating: ***
The movie "Ronde Sare Viah Pichhon" (RSVP) opens up with a Punjab wedding in the backdrop where the bride elopes with an affluent groom and after that the story unfolds in the flashback narrating the drama behind the elopement.
Manpreet (Neeru Bajwa) has gained notoriety as "the Runaway Bride" teaming up with her aunt (Navneet Nishan) and uncle (Jaswinder Bhalla), who con grooms' families. The trio lures guys into marriage and then run away with their cash and gold.
So far so good.
The story takes an interesting twist, when carefree and cheerful Manpreet falls in love with Ranbir (Harish Verma), who is also one of their victims. She had conned him a few months ago with the help of her uncle and aunt.
Marking his debut in Punjabi films, ace comedian Rajpal Yadav plays another prospective groom.
Rich in content, the movie is one-of-a-kind Punjabi plot compared to other movies from the region that usually evokes laughter pointlessly.
The first half is fantastic, while the second half is a bit dragged.
"RSVP" is certainly notches above than the rest in terms of direction and screenplay. Directed by Vijay Kumar Arora, "RSVP" is shot in beautiful locations in Amritsar. The sequences shot in mustard fields and villages are the highlights of the movie.
The delightful comedy, soft romantic songs and endearing dialogues will keep you glued to your seats. Tracking the runaway bride, who finally finds true love, the movie is a complete package of entertainment and humour.
If Harish's performance is flawless, Neeru, the queen of regional cinema, has wowed the audience once again. Navneet and Jaswinder are the show-stealers, while Gugu Gill impresses as an authoritative personality.
Go and watch the most romantic, exciting and exhilarating con-drama.

Breaking: The Trump administration wants to revoke protection for large swaths of Bears Ears. This unprecedented move would establish a dangerous new precedent that could put tens of millions of acres of public land, YOUR land, at risk.
Please support our urgent work with an emergency gift now.
Congressional offices were reportedly overwhelmed by calls from people who didn't want to sell off public lands, leading Rep. Jason Chaffetz to withdraw his legislation.
Right now, the best way to fight the fossil fuel agenda is to fight it in our anti-conservation Congress and show them we are watching their every move.
Interior Secretary nominee Ryan Zinke frequently calls himself a Teddy Roosevelt conservationist. Our Teddy-o-Meter shows when Zinke's words and actions align with the pro-public lands and anti-pollution standards of his hero, and when they fall short.
Black History Month is a time to remember and honor the many groups and individuals who contributed to the success and achievements of this country as well as to advancement for African Americans as a people.
Emboldened by the new Trump administration, anti-conservationists in Congress moved forward to repeal an Obama rule to stop the rampant waste from oil and gas operations on public lands.
Utah Rep. Jason Chaffetz's bill identifies 3.3 million acres across 10 states to be 'disposed of' and sold off, just a few days after the House passed a rules package that makes such land seizure plans easier to execute.
Under President Obama, the rules of fossil fuel development—including on public lands—became more balanced, and the nation took steps to address the monumental challenge of climate change. In the Oval Office for less than a week, President Trump appears to be doing everything he can to put the oil and gas industry back in the driver's seat.
Donald Trump's presidency ushers in a new era of serious threats to American conservation. On the one hand, Trump has publicly said that he wants to keep public lands protected for all Americans.
The most anticipated outdoor recreation event of the year just finished in Salt Lake City, Utah, where hundreds of outdoor brands from small business outfitters to industry pioneers like Patagonia and Black Diamond Equipment gathered to witness the cutting-edge in outdoor gear.
After overwhelming public support, the Forest Service issued its final decision on January 17 that withdrew consent to the Bureau of Land Management to offer oil and gases leases
Trump is trying to open the Arctic Refuge to oil drilling. Tell Congress to defend this wild place.

New York Times best-selling author Tana French has won the prestigious Edgar, Barry, Macavity, and Anthony awards. As her third novel featuring the Dublin Murder Squad opens, 19-year-old Frank Mackey is waiting in vain for Rosie, who he's supposed to run away to London with. But when she doesn't show, Frank leaves Dublin without her—thinking never to return. Years later, though, Rosie's suitcase is found in an abandoned house, and Frank, now a detective, returns to his old neighborhood to learn the truth of that long-ago night.
©2010 Tana French (P)2010 Recorded Books, LLC
"French's writing remains brilliant, and her dialogue is sharp, often lacerating, and sometimes mordantly funny. Faithful Place is her best book yet." (Booklist)
I didn't just listen to this book; it's more like I was consumed by it. Tana French doesn't write in a serial fashion like other mystery authors. She explores a group of people, character by character; her books are almost more stand-alone novels than a series. I think this one is her best so far, even though I really loved the first two. Frank has to solve an old murder, a contemporary murder, and resolve how each has influenced his life. There is so much more here than the usual murder mystery; if that's all you want, download something else. French's characters are fully-developed; they are human beings, with faults, damage, and in this case, a strong will in Frank to rise above his beginnings. The bonus here is French's marvelous command of Irish street language (vulgarity alert!); it's a witty, sometimes laugh-out-loud counterpoint to the tragedy of poverty, death, and struggle. Her approach is a refreshing change to the formulaic writing that most mystery writers can't break away from. "Faithful Place" is a love story within a murder mystery, solved years after the fact. Discovery of the murder nearly destroys Frank's family and threatens to destroy him; it's an exploration of his struggle to deal with his past and create a future for himself. Either you like French's approach or you don't, but what you don't get here is same-old same-old mystery solving. French develops the plot by uncovering, layer by layer, events of the past as seen through various characters' eyes, and their motivations for their actions, their pain, and their prejudices. It's not until the very end of the book that the murderer is revealed, along with not only the motivation for the person's actions, but the story behind the motivation. It's a complex, compelling story, and it's made me more of a Tana French fan than I was before - and I waited impatiently for this book to become available. It's like nothing you've read before, even by the same author.
"Brilliant Book. Great Narrator!"
Definitely the best of Tana French's three novels. The story line is great but the dialogue and the interactions between Frank Mackies very dysfunctional family is brilliantly observed and made the book. The narration is excellent. Fabulous Irish accents and the subtle differences between the characters made it a delight to listen to. I don't often reccommend a listen over a read but in this case definitely the way to go.
"Best of French"
I have read all of Tana French's books, and I enjoyed Faithful Place the most. Frank Mackey's character is SO funny, and the interaction with his family was often sad and always well written and interesting. I hope that his character returns in future books. I didn't mind the narrator; in fact his voice sounded like I imagined Frank's to sound.
"A great story, so well read"
The Irish neighborhood where the story takes place is at least as interesting as the plot. Character development is excellent. It is richly dark.
If (like my husband) your idea of a good book is swashbuckling action with shallow, predictable characters you cannot relate to and will not remember an hour after you finish the book, then "Faithful Place" is not for you. This just isn't that kind of book. On the other hand, if you enjoy an extremely well-crafted story, with believable characters, a good mystery, a haunting love-story, and a realistic procedural that keeps you guessing while rooting for the "good guy", then it's a winner. Tana French's writing improves with each book she writes, and hers are on the very short list of those I will listen to more than once.
Thinker Meets Explorer
"Kept me listening until 3 AM"
This was my first introduction to Tana French and her love-'em-or-leave-him Dublin detective Frank Mackey. And what an introduction it was—I couldn't stop listening to this book until the very end (which for me, happened to be at 3 AM!).
The plot is a zinger – a suitcase from a long-disappeared lover shows up at Mackey's family home – and new narrator Tim Gerard Reynolds does a fabulous job with bringing the detective's fieriness and his hometown's Irish accents wonderfully to life.
I can wait for the next novel, Broken Harbor, out July 24. Until then, I'll be catching up on In the Woods and The Likeness.
Audible has changed my life! Dry , itchy eyes were destroying one of my greatest pleasures - reading. Now I am experiencing books again!
"Beautiful Language - Where Audio is King"
Many people have reviewed this book. I'm adding my two cents just to emphasize the value of this audio version. Tana French is all about the language, and hearing the expert narrators deliver her words in lilting accents really optimizes the experience. "Faithful Place" is a little shorter than her other books, but it certainly demonstrates the same intensity, insight into characters, and excellent view of a changing modern Ireland. French doesn't always go for the traditional "happy" ending with all aspects of the story tied up neatly, but she's to be relied on for interesting plots and realistic people. "Faithful Place" is an enlightening and harrowing story about that most mysterious of human institutions - the family. Enjoy the trip with a truly engaging narrator!
"Bloody lovely"
The story was compelling, the narration brilliant and I can't wait to listen to another Tana French. As a child of a Dublin woman, the characters seemed authentic to me and the dialogue spot on. I've listened to more than 40 audible books, and this is one of the best.
"Saw it Coming!"
Ms. French has the Irish milieu down cold. As I was twice married to Irish lass, I can say without a doubt, she banged it on the head. But maybe too hard and to often. Once I got the picture, I would have been happier to have been involved in a more complex plot.
But then, maybe that's the point. In a place where whole lives are spent in the confines of a few blocks, from cradle to grave, in pressure-cooker poverty and a paucity of education, life is bleak. And incestuous, and brutal, and alcoholic, and did I say brutal.
Francis is a tad too good to be true as he comes up with gem after gem of bits of child-rearing wisdom and pressure-releasing anecdotes, but he was a likable character.
I could certainly tell that this book was written by a woman as she bathed the copious raw situations in soothing tales of feelings and understanding from the heart. A little too much. I felt it diminished the stark, cruel reality in which this family tragedy takes place. She can write dialogue with the best of them, I'd say, as she moves this tale inevitably to the predetermined conclusion.
"Faithful Place"
This book was well written and well titled and once I began listening, I had a hard time turning it off.
This is the first book by Tana French I listened to, but I just purchased two others. The story had me guessing until the end. I was expecting something else, and was surprised by the outcome.
Strongly recommend to others.

Bucks Team Up with Wisconsin Students to Discourage Use of Mobile Phones While Driving
The Milwaukee Bucks supported Wisconsin Career and Technical Student Organizations (CTSOs) in their efforts to raise awareness about the dangers of operating a mobile device while driving.
CTSOs from high schools across Wisconsin participated in a contest to come up with the best school and community campaigns to educate their peers, families and neighbors, and to get them to commit to driving without the distraction of cell phones. To recognize the hard work of the students, the Bucks hosted the schools with the five most successful campaigns to an exclusive experience on Saturday, Jan. 25, prior to the game vs. the Atlanta Hawks.
The finalists for the project were students from Appleton North, Beaver Dam, Belmont, Waunakee and Wausau West high schools, and they joined the Bucks at the Cousins Center Training Facility for an afternoon of educational programing before heading over to the BMO Harris Bradley Center for the game that evening. They participated in a career panel discussion with special Bucks guests who highlighted numerous career pathways available to students, played interactive games with prizes such as high-fiving NBA players or sitting on team benches at the game, a tour of the practice facility, and a group photo opportunity. The top three schools – Wausau, Beaver Dam and Belmont – had their campaign videos shown pre-game and were recognized on-court at halftime.
"The Bucks organization has a long-standing relationship with CTSO and supports the all-important mission to educate students on the dangers of operating a mobile device while driving," said Steve Tarachow, the Bucks' director of group programs. "We commend the achievements of those student leaders who spearheaded this initiative in pursuit of making a positive difference in their schools and communities."
"The collaboration between all six CTSOs and the partnership with the Milwaukee Bucks developed an innovative approach to promote safe driving in our communities throughout the state," said Sara Baird, assistant director of Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction Career and Technical Education. "We are proud of the local community campaigns that answered our call to action."
The top-three projects include:
In first place, FCCLA and DECA members from Wausau West High School developed a campaign to raise awareness about the dangers of using mobile devices while driving by utilizing school-wide messaging through Facebook, Twitter and email. As a result, 1,300 students took the pledge, and there was additional support from parents.
In second place, FBLA members from Beaver Dam High School coordinated an awareness campaign with numerous local businesses (Walmart, Subway and Culver's) to offer incentives to 600 students who participated in a Spirit Week for a "Don't Text and Drive" campaign. The culmination of the week included 285 students taking the pledge to "Never Text and Drive." Extensive promotional materials like posters, flyers, athletic program advertisements, Facebook and Twitter posts, and in-school events resulted in high participation.
In third place, FBLA and FFA members from Belmont High School used Facebook, Twitter, parent newsletters and an in-school pledge board to reach their entire district of over 1,500 individuals. Students and community members wore yellow clothing to support an awareness day about texting and driving. Promotional T-shirts were distributed with the slogan "One Text or Call Could End it All" and numerous statistics about the dangers of using mobile devices while driving.
"Congratulations to students in Wisconsin CTSOs who developed projects to remind themselves, their peers and the public about the dangers of mobile phone distractions while driving," said State Superintendent Tony Evers. "Their efforts show the leadership, skill, development and community service ethic that are a part of career and technical education and the supporting student organizations."
More information on Career and Technical Student Organizations and related Career and Technical Education programs are available online at http://cte.dpi.wi.gov/cte_ctso or by contacting Sara Baird, DPI assistant director of Career and Technical Education, (608) 266-9609.

I have been thinking about a couple of things and finally figure I should ask.1. Has anyone ever caught a swarm where the queen was marked? I figure there has to be some instances of swarms leaving that have a marked queen and someone finding them.
2. How do commercial beekeepers travel with bees? If they drive from Georgia or somewhere on the east coast do the close the hive and keep feeding them across the country? How long can the bees survive being shut in the hive as they travel?I know, two things that are not related but have been on my mind so I thought I would ask.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|I have used lizard skin and i bought the gun with the product so i am not sure how the gun you have will work. I always sprayed it in hotter weather as this helps it dry faster. it is super thick and needs alot of pressure to pull it throught the tip. to get it smooth you have to play with air pressure and distance, especcially if you are using an undercoat gun. Don't expect it to go on like a heavy primer, it will have a little more texture than that. top coating with base clear is only going to magnify the texture. if you wnat it smooth you will have to prime and sand to fill the texture and we both know how much work that is. I personally dont like the look of top coated texture, if its a driver just lizard skin it and drive it. if its a show car I dont reccomend top coated lizard skin. Call Mike and he will give all the help you need, he is very nice and wants to help his customers. DO NOT ROLL IT UNLESS YOU WANT A TON OF TEXTURE!!
|Never used lizard skin, seen it after it has been done, but have done a lot of painting though, I'll throw my 2 cents out here, it may do some good. If it is thick it will be difficult to spray on and make it look good, thick paint/coating tends to run badly. I wouldn't suggest using a roller, it won't finish as you think, especially over a large area like running boards. Since it is thick (I've painted forktrucks with very thick, un thinned industrial paint) you probably will have to use about 65lbs pressure on your gun, and lower and you'll probably get bad streaks and running. I'd test paint a piece of sheet metal first, thick heavy coating material can be hard to gauge speed/stroke to get a even smooth coat. Good Luck!
|Michael Clark
Lizard skin application questions
What is the best temperature to apply Lizard skin ceramic coating to the interior of a vehicle and also under the fenders/running boards? I opened one 2 gallon bucket and even after prolonged sturring (with a drill) it was unbelievably thick. Does the lizard skin need to be thinned prior to spraying or is this actually supposed to be this super thick consistancy? Can this be applied with an under coating spray gun and what pressure should be used? I know the air pressure lizard skin recommends, but what pressure works BEST in the real world to get as smooth an appearance as possible. I'm wanting to have as smooth of application or appearance as possible under my fenders & running boards because I'm planning on topcoating the lizard skin with base coat clear coat. All the metal surfaces are properly coated with primer. I'm wondering if putting the coating on with a roller would make the appearance smoother, but I'm not sure. Hopefully some of you fellow board members have actually used this lizard skin and can offer some learned advice. Thanks in advance.

Student Loans
Student Loans
Loans are a form of financial aid that students must repay. All students applying for any type of federal student loan must submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid in addition to the appropriate loan application. Loans are available to both Pennsylvania and out-of-state residents.
General eligibility requirements must be satisfied by all students to receive federal loan assistance:
- Must be a U.S. citizen or eligible non-citizen
- Must be accepted for enrollment or enrolled in a degree program at Bloomsburg University on at least a half-time basis (Undergraduate - six credits per semester / Graduate - 5 credits per semester)
- Must maintain satisfactory progress
- Must not be in default on a federal student loan or owe a refund on any federal student aid program
- Must be registered with Selective Service, if required Loan repayments are serious financial and legal obligations.
Students and their families must understand their commitment prior to taking out a student loan. Excessive borrowing and failure to repay loans may have serious adverse effects on a student's future credit rating. Borrowers experiencing difficulty in meeting their repayment responsibilities should immediately notify their lenders. In certain situations, borrowers may be eligible for deferments/forbearance (postponements) of the repayment obligation. Borrowers are obligated to repay the full amount of the loan even if they do not graduate, did not find employment in their field of study, are not satisfied with the education they received, or are having financial difficulty.
Loan forgiveness programs may be available to students in certain degrees or occupations (i.e. Nursing, Education, Armed Forces). For more information contact AES/PHEAA (800)692-7392.
Borrowers with several federal loan programs may be able to obtain a Federal Consolidation Loan that combines all federal loan payments into a single monthly payment. Please note Private Educational Alternative Loans may not be consolidated into a Federal Consolidation Loan. Consolidated monthly payments may be lower than the combination of individual payments, and the repayment period can usually be extended. Consolidated loans may help borrowers avoid delinquent or default situations. Check with the holder of your loans for more information.
If your are in a dispute about your federal student loan, contact the Federal Student Aid Ombudsman Group as a last resort. The FSA Ombudsman Group is dedicated to helping resolve disputes related to Direct Loans, Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) Program Loans, Guaranteed Student Loans, and Perkins Loans. Please use the following information to contact the FSA Ombudsman Group:
- On-line: http://studentaid.ed.gov/repay-loans/disputes/prepare

- Graduation
- Withdrawal from school
- Attendance is less than half-time status (less than six credits Undergraduate - less than five credits Graduate)
- Change of name or address
- Transfer to another school
- Other changes that may affect borrowers' eligibility for deferred payments

Support Quail Conservation in Georgia
Support Quail Conservation in Georgia
How can you support quail conservation in Georgia - even if you don't own ANY land?
Purchase a "Support Wildlife" license plate for your vehicle
Georgia's Bobwhite Quail Initiative license plate provides the sole funding source to support habitat restoration efforts on private lands to benefit bobwhite quail and a host of other game and nongame wildlife species. The BQI license plate can be purchased at your county tag office. The cost is $25 (plus $20 standard registration tag fee) for the first year and then a renewal fee of $25 (plus $20 standard registration tag fee) per year thereafter, with up to 80 percent of the fees -- $19 of the purchase and $20 of each renewal -- going directly to the BQI.
Other information about the "Support Wildlife" license plate.
An additional option to support quail conservation is to make a direct, tax-deductible cash donation to the Georgia DNR - BQI (be sure to specify GA DNR - BQI Donation on the check). All donated funds will go to support the BQI conservation efforts.
Checks should be mailed Attn: Georgia DNR - Bobwhite Quail Initiative, 116 Rum Creek Drive, Forsyth, GA 31029.
