I am from Germany and I use the standard movie scrapper "The MovieDb" and set my preferred language to "DE" (German) (and get trailers from HD-Trailers.net deactivated) because I want the movie description in German. This works perfect but only a hand full movies has a German trailer on themoviedb.org. Is it somehow possible to manipulate a file so that I get the trailers from the English version if no trailer is available in my preferred language? If this is not possible is it possible to just get everyTrailer from the English version of the movie in themoviedb.org (because nearly every movie has an trailer in English on this site).
Im am not sure if this is the right forum for this question but i hope so ^^.
Is this somehow possible?

This is already the default way.
No German trailer wil always default back to English
If there's no trailer scrapped that means that there is no trailer listed on TMDB

Hmm very strange. Lets take the movie "Abduction" for example.
If i scrap it I have no trailer available.
When i look at TMDb:
German: http://www.themoviedb.org/movie/59965-ab...anguage=de --> No YouTube trailers found
English: http://www.themoviedb.org/movie/59965-ab...anguage=en --> HD Trailer available
I use XBMC for years now and i never saw an english trailer.
Am I doing something wrong?
Edit (25.03.2012 12:47):
Ok, now it works. I was using XBMC 10 and I now updated to XBMC 11.
But I am pretty sure that this was and is not working in XBMC 10.
Thanks anyway

NuAir Partners with Pro-Build
Florida manufacturer NuAir has handed the reins for all of its new construction installation over to Pro-Build, a building materials supplier, in a strategic partnership that aims to offer building professionals consistency in both products and installation. Starting in September, Pro-Build will tout NuAir as its preferred manufacturer in Florida, investing significant resources into promoting the Tampa-based window and door producer.
"The decision to partner with Pro-Build was made with our valued customers in mind," says J. Scott Henderson, president of NuAir. "We strive for complete customer satisfaction with our products and services, and we believe the Pro-Build partnership will ensure that every installation of a NuAir product is done with care and craftsmanship."
Henderson adds that divesting of installation services of its new construction products will allow the company to focus on longer-term product development, including its plans to introduce a new line of vinyl windows in the coming year, along with other high-performance products geared at meeting the new Florida energy code. "With Pro-Build handling installation, the NuAir team will focus on what we do best—produce top quality windows and doors," says Henderson.
Pro-Build supplies builders with a full line of building materials, as well as installation service on windows, exterior doors, siding and interior trim packages. The company goes to market as a single supplier, as it also offers project management.
"At Pro-Build, we are longtime admirers of NuAir products. They are true experts in the window and door market, and we look forward to working with them," notes Mike Mendlik, market manager at Pro-Build East. The company will feature NuAir lines in advertising campaigns and will update NuAir merchandising displays at Pro-Build locations throughout Florida.
All current NuAir installation customers will be transitioned to Pro-Build over the course of the coming months, company officials note.
With 500 locations in 40 states, Pro-Build says it's the nation's largest supplier of building materials to professional builders. It got its start in 1997 when Fidelity Capital acquired Strober Building Supply. Since that time, it has added numerous other operations, including those of Lanoga Corp. and Hope Lumber.

I have been playing around and modifying some templates that I have made using some of the extablished members' existing drawings. Anyways, I had printed these out, then mapped and entered everything into AUTOCAD. I offered them up some time ago and had several people that received them.
While this was great, I came to realize how time-consuming tracing and cutting everything out was. I have extensive CAD and some CNC programing experience so, when I had some free time and was able to join my efforts with a friend ... VIOLA!
A CNC PROGRAM to run on 3MM sintra!. We used a 60 degree bevel bit and set the depth so that it would leave a thin "SKIN" on the back that would keep all of the parts together and so they wouldn't shift, or get sucked into the router's vaccum
The best part? It takes 5 minutes to get a complete set of perfectly uniform beveled edge armor. You can either snap it out (but you get small micro fractures) or score in the bevel with a knife!
Let me know what you think:

PERFECT for our little guy
Not knowing how big our baby would be, we bought the Bummis newborn pack and they have been awesome. We still use disposables for late night changings, but these prefold and covers are perfect for day time use. Our son was 6 and a half pounds when we brought him home and started using these diapers. He is now over 9 pounds (5 weeks later) and just starting to outgrow them. The covers provided in this pack are Adorable!!! I love posting pictures of him in these! I'm not sure what to start using next, as the next size prefolds are huge and bulky on our little guy, and the pocket/AIO diapers we have on hand are still too big for him. Guess it's time to start the trial-and-error phase......
2012-09-14 13:33:33
Great for the first weeks
We used Bummis Newborn pack for our daughter, and they worked well. We did however require TWO packs and still did laundry every single day, and we also needed extra covers. She did soak through them a few times, and we had the odd poop-explosion, but that was likely our fault with the folding - just beware of the possibility! Our daughter is now into her bigger diapers, but we still use some of the prefolds to tuck under her during diaper changes to absorb mid-change pees (easier than changing the mat) and as overnight doublers for her other diapers. She only used them for about 3 weeks and they were still less expensive than disposables would have been, and thats before we lend most of the set to friends who are expecting. Bottom line: yes we would recommend them (get at least 2 packs and at least 1 other cover, and a set of Snappies to make it easy).
Do you want to review this Bummis product ?

It's an indie city building game that isn't quite as complex as SimCity, but just as hard (or even more!). You start with a few families that have been exiled from their homeland and must make a new thriving city on a new and unexplored land. You will have to take care of the basics of the genre: give them houses, collect resources, make sure they have food, entertainment, health, keep on growing by building better buildings, etc. It's pretty straightforward but that doesn't mean it's easy, once your villagers start dying because you aren't giving them enough food or winter has been harsh it's pretty difficult to come back.
I've been playing it for a few hours now and having a blast with it. Totally worth the price tag in my opinion. If you like city building games I would really recommend supporting this developer.


text: I though Sagar said that LeBron left the team to go be with his mommy. Ah ha ha. It really is interesting to see how the match-ups play out. DET can't beat CLE who can't beat ORL who can't beat DET. Can you believe that Howard is the same one who plays against the Pistons? Likewise, can you believe that Big Z is the same one who plays against DET? The TNT farewell wrap-up of the playoffs featured a .5 second close-up of a wincing Rip Hamilton as the only Piston "highlight". I seriously feel as if the Pistons just won the title I'm so happy.

I love your show very much and this is not my first comment. I load firewood and paint as I listen to you guys, thanks so much for the inspiration over what is becoming years. I'm not an audio learner, though my mind is quite stimulated by what I hear. I've purchased Dick's book which I love.
(2 parts: Reader pick and Question.)
(FIRST) I have a reader pick for you. I'm an RN with an interest in science, I've been trying to teach myself about the immune system. I've gone through some books that were too complicated (Roits) and too simple, and kept shopping for one that had it all...I seem to have found it and want to recommend it to you and your listeners:
The Immune System by Peter Parham (third edition) put out by Garland Science. He is on faculty at Stanford University where he is Professor in the Departments of Structural Biology and Microbiology and Immunology. This is an excellent book, good structure, knowledge building moves logically and progressively. He doesn't get stuck with pet ideas, nice pictures (for visual folks like me). And, at the end of each chapter is a test...I recognize now that open book tests really help my brain to grab the new information.
(SECOND) OK, here's a QUESTION from a person who is really not qualified to ask the question (me!)
Regarding the TWiV 87: A PHIREside chat with Professor Graham Hatfull...GREAT episode by the way, I SO enjoyed it.
A person named Jason sent a link to "Scientist Infected by a Computer Virus".
OK, WAIT A MINUTE! Infected with the virus? And not only "infected" but his body became a conduit for (replicated?) viral information so that it could be transferred to his computer?
There must be some leap over basic rules of viral infection going on here. So...what are the rules? Don't viruses have to bind to human sialic acid receptors? Don't they have to have specific mechanisms for making the cell do their bidding in generating copies of their genetic information?
1) Does what happened to this scientist constitute "infection?
2) Does that article seem a little too simple to you, and is the TechWorld site reliable?
3) Last but not least: what would be the mechanism by which binary computer information could (replicate???) infect a wet human body...I'm not getting it at all. I don't even understand how it could be released by the chip (as a particle?) or picked up by the computer (as a particle...or as digital information....how would it be assessed?)
Another related question: we are not "infected" by the phage viruses that infect our gut bacteria...? In other words, a virus can be present in our body somewhere, but not infecting our own human cells...because "infection" is a specific process. True or what would you say on this?
Love your show and look forward to enjoying your answer on your podcast.
Yours with warmest regards
Jennie of Oneonta, NY (Read below for article)
"A British scientist claims to have become the first human to be infected by a computer virus, in an experiment he says has important implications for the future of implantable technology.
Dr Mark Gasson from the University of Reading infected a computer chip which was then implanted in his hand with the virus and then transmitted it to a PC to prove that malware can move between human and computer.
Chips that can be implanted into the body have been around for a while, and Gasson uses one in place of a security pass to gain secure access to the building, and to activate his mobile phone. But he says the implications for computer viruses in implants are far-reaching, and could potentially affect those with pacemakers and other medical devices.
Speaking to the BBC, Gasson said someone with an infected chip implant could potentially infect someone else, while a person with two devices under the skin could run the risk of viruses passing between the two chips.
"With the benefits of this type of technology come risks," Gasson told the BBC. "We may improve ourselves in some way but much like the improvements with other technologies, mobile phones for example, they become vulnerable to risks."

Hi guys, love the podcasts. Esp the history behind the discoveries. When I was at primary school there was an animated movie that showed the immune system fighting the germs they looked like blobs with steel helmets and guns fighting the nasty germs. It was shown around the second half of the 1970s. Do you have any idea what it was called and if there are any copies available.
Cheers and keep up the good work

Hi guys,
I'm a postdoc working in a virology lab who recently discovered your show. I really enjoy it and got another grad student in the lab hooked on it too.
I have been listening to some of your archived shows and heard a question in TWiV #73 about applying drugs targeting reverse transcriptase to the treatment of cancer causing viruses. You guys mentioned that HBV has RT activity and could possibly be targeted with the same drugs, but did a quick search to find that AZT (or zidovudine) doesn't work. It's true that AZT doesn't work, but there are 2 HIV inhibitors that are effective against HBV and have been approved by the NIH for this purpose: lamivudine (or 3TC) and tenofovir (which made headlines as the first moderately successful topical anti-HIV gel).
You also indicated that RT inhibitors are unlikely to be effective against other viruses that don't have RT, but I thought it worth mentioning that nucleoside analogs are often effective against diverse viral polymerases. Adefovir, another approved treatment for HBV, is quite similar to tenofovir and has been shown to have anti-HIV and anti-herpesvirus activity. As you probably know, many of the approved treatments for herpesviruses, hepatitis C virus, and other viruses are nucleoside or nucleotide analogs that are not so different from RT inhibitors. Like RT, viral DNA polymerases are more likely to be inhibited by these analogs than cellular polymerases, making these types of compounds so useful as antivirals.
Just thought I would add my two cents. Keep up the good work.

I just recently started listening to your podcast after hearing about it so much on Futures in Biotech. I was a bit resistant at first. Though I am grad student in molecular biology, I work with plants, not viruses, so I wasn't sure how much I would really get from it. I have to admit I enjoy it greatly and have learned quite a bit. So thanks for putting out one of the best science podcasts around. Listening to you're latest podcast (# 100), I was very much interested in the discussions regarding science education. Of course I agree that more is needed, but I was wondering, how much is enough? Its already known that many students lack sufficient understanding in even more basic and essential skills like mathematics and reading. As much as a greater scientific literacy is needed amongst the general population, reality is that there is only so much that can be taught in elementary, middle school, and high school. Given the breadth of topics in Science that must be covered (physics, chemistry, biology, etc) what is essential and what can we do without? I don't want to come across as skeptical/critical of the calls for more or better science education, but when these calls are made, rarely do I see anyone answer the necessary question of what is critical for students to learn.

Good luck
I just ordered the Sig Sauer Mosquito Reverse Two Tone with the Target Package. It'll have a black slide with gun metal colored frame. The target pak includes a scope mount, scope rings, and 1" red-dot scope. I'm excited about having a pistol that I can shoot very cheaply. Once I get the scope sighted in, it should be pretty accurate as well. This will also be the gun that I teach my daughter to shoot with. While she is now only 11 months old, there's no point in not being prepared.
I'll post pics once it comes in.
Dladd you are a very smart man. I am sure the baby girl will love you for it. Good luck as a father and shooter.
That's a good looking gun. Let us know how it shoots.
Well, I picked up the Mosquito on Friday and had a day of shooting on Saturday. Man, that is a nice shooting little gun. Right out of the box with no initial tear-down or lubricant it never jammed or hung up. The sights needed a little adjustment but nothing major.
I was also very impressed with the fit and finish of the pistol. It has the same look and feel of my P245. It is the same size and has all of the same features such as the decocker.
So as you can guess, my first impressions are pretty good.
I had one in my hand at a gun show a while back, and I liked the feel of it real well. I think if they done more advertising on them they would sell like hot cakes. Good luck with yours Dladd.
We got one for my wife but I'm sure I need to test it out for a few hundred rounds now and then. She likes it. Has your's shown any ammo preference? Mine...err...hers so far doesn't like high end CCI, or plain blazer.
I had several 100 round boxes of mixed up ammo. I really have no idea what any of it was. I know some was hollow point some wasn't. Just a real mixed bag. Anyway, I was putting that stuff through it in no particular order and it didn't have any problem with any of it. It came with a second recoil spring for hotter loads I believe but for what I was shooting the factory settings worked great. I was teaching my GF how to shoot on Saturday and after shooting the Mosquito for about 100 rounds she latched onto my Sig P245. I may not get that one back. For some reason, she liked shooting a gun with a little kick to it.
dladd, I hope all continues well for you and your Mosquito. How does it feel in your hand, what is the quality like, how many magazines, etc? Regards, Richard
Nice looking piece, and I'm happy to read a positive report, as I have looked at them several times... but man that thing has more safeties than you can shake a stick at!
I'm guessing Sig hired somebody away from Phoenix Arms!
As I stated above, I have a Sig P245 .45ACP. The Mosquito has almost the exact same diminsions but is much lighter when loaded due to the ammo difference. As far as everything else, it feels very natural in my hand. It comes to target very quickly and the fit and finish is all Sig Sauer.
The Mosquito is a fantastic pistol to train someone on who will be transitioning to a larger Sig. The Mosquito has the same decocker, slide release, and hammer configurations as the P245 so my GF was easily able to make the transition from shooting .22 to the .45.
Before Saturday, she had never even held a pistol before in her life. She was able to take the Mosquito and @ 50 feet 9 out of 10 shots were in the black on a silouette target. I can't wait to get the red-dot scope for it.
Well, I got the Red-Dot for it and took it to the range on Saturday to sight it in. I spent about 50 rounds getting it perfect and after that I could rapidly shoot 10 rounds at 20 yards and every one be in the 6" black circle of the target. The Red-dot makes it very easy to keep this pistol on target and since it's a .22, recoil is nonexistent. I've found that this pistol is a little particular about it's ammo though. You have to use good quality ammo or it will hang up. It really doesn't like the cheapest stuff.
Overall, this is a fantastic little pistol. The scope makes it even better. I am very pleased and would recommend one for anyone who wants to shoot all day for about $20. It was kind of boring to shoot before I put the scope on it but now it's an absolute blast.

Fox's Chris Wallace: "We Kind Of Discovered" Paul Ryan, Birthday Cake Stunt "Was Pretty Horrible"
Blog ››› ››› ERIC HANANOKI
Fox News Sunday host Chris Wallace said today that his show "kind of discovered" Paul Ryan before he was well-known. Wallace added that when Fox News Sunday gave Ryan a birthday cake earlier this year as a "photo-op," it backfired because Ryan "looked absolutely terrified" since he's "very physically fit" and "doesn't eat sweets."
Paul Ryan has long been the darling of the conservative media and especially Fox News, which has praised Ryan as a "star," a "genius," and a man of "courage." Fox News has also helped whitewash Ryan's record on issues like Medicare and his budget plan.
During his appearance on Kilmeade & Friends, Wallace confirmed the show's adoration of Ryan, with whom "we were always very impressed."
"I feel like we kind of discovered him on Fox News Sunday," Wallace told host Brian Kilmeade. "We had him on when he was, you know, not a terribly well-known member of Congress because we just kept hearing from people on Capitol Hill he's the smartest guy around and we were always very impressed and kept having him on."
Wallace then explained how the show presented a dollar sign birthday cake to Ryan because they wanted a "photo-op" of him cutting "into the dollars because he's the big budget cutter." The stunt didn't quite work out because "we found out that, you know, he's very physically fit and stuff that he doesn't eat sweets."
Politico noted in an August 24 article that Ryan climbed the ladder "into the top tier of national Republican politics," in part, by cultivating relationships with members of the conservative media.
From the September 27 edition of Fox News Radio's Kilmeade & Friends:
WALLACE: Yeah, I mean I feel like we kind of discovered him on Fox News Sunday. We had him on when he was, you know, not a terribly well-known member of Congress because we just kept hearing from people on Capitol Hill he's the smartest guy around and we were always very impressed and kept having him on. But just the way the schedules have worked out, this will be the first time since he's the running mate.
KILMEADE: By the way, I'm hearing reports that you gave him a birthday cake.
WALLACE: Well, no, we did it on the air.
KILMEADE: You did it on the air?
WALLACE: Well, do you know this story?
KILMEADE: Well, I think I remember seeing it. I'm trying to --
WALLACE: It was pretty horrible. What happened was -- so it turned out, we just found out, you know, the researchers do a lot of research and someone said, "Hey guess what, that day is going to be his birthday." And we thought, well, it'd be a funny photo. This was long before he's, you know, the vice presidential running mate so at the end of the show, it's just kind of a stunt, and a photo-op, we bring out a cake, and the cake, it's like one of those sheet cakes, you know, long, big wide squares, but thin, and it's got a big dollar bill sign on it.
I said we should have it actually, you know, it should be, you know, in the shape, in the form of a dollar with, you know, Washington's face on it. But that apparently costs a dollar fifty extra, so we just had the dollar bill sign on it.
Well we hand it to him and it's as if I had handed him a ticking time bomb. He looked absolutely terrified. We gave him, you know, a knife to cut it, thinking, well that's the shot. He's going to sit there and cut into the dollars because he's the big budget cutter, and he was completely undone and we found out that, you know, he's very physically fit and stuff that he doesn't eat sweets, which immediately makes me not trust him since I like my chocolate chip cookies. But in any case, it didn't go very well.

So, realistically, with your job and assumed trajectory through your life (i.e. how things look now), what is the one car/vehicle you have to own before you die? Sure, if I won some $200m lotto I'd buy everything (including Katy Perry), and so would everyone else, but let's pretend you're not going to pick the right numbers or inherit an oil field in your life. What would you buy that is attainable?
For me it is a '60s Corvette, anywhere from 1963-69, I love them. Ideally I'd like a '63 Z06 or a '67 L88, but midyears cost a nut and a leg anyway, and those two would be worth the wrath of the pharaohs. I love the early Mako Shark C3s as well, and a '69 would be key, since I'd get the actual slot fender vents and would get to skip a lot of the initial-build problems from 1968. In either case I'd try both a small and big block, something about a 427 makes me hot but I know a built small block can easily make too much power, and it'd preserve handling. A midyear I'd keep mint, but I could easily restomod a C3 as long as it was stealthy.
Are there 100 other cars I lust for? Sure. Will I ever get any of them if I can't even focus on just one? Nope So TCL, what is the one car you WILL get (not can, not if) in your life?

text: I don't where you are going with this. Spurs are the conservative ones. They have kept the coach and core for years. Of course they got a couple of titles out of it. There is no DNA. Only DNA is winning. If you win then you have good team DNA. What it is now anyway? A boring player who does not score much and never complains. More changes needed to happen and I think they would have if not for these expiring contracts. Just because nothing happened 2 years ago does not mean that Dumars did not try. He is the type of GM that will never volunteer the news that he failed. yea its not just the local Detroit guys. Pistons have a losing record with AI and its something that is not going to go away. 4-12 with him starting and Rip coming off the bench. I heard something that we are something like 14-27 when both Rip and AI play. Its something that the rest of the league is noticing.

With all the attention Cyberman and I have been getting on our Darth Maul/Ray Park head sculpt, I just wanted to show off our first collaboration. We have just started our third, and have just as high of expectations for it as well.
I was documenting some of my props for my new Web site and thought it might be a cool idea to tinker around with my yoda puppet. What good is it being a puppet if you can't have fun posing it?
It still is very much in progress. Seam lines need work, head/hands/feet need painted, robes need distressing, hand and feet nails need added, flute, belt, pouch, and new cane need to be made, etc..
Regardless, I think it looks pretty cool nonetheless. I really want to finish him up but I've just got way too many projects going on all at once. :cry
Let me know what you think.
First, the standard promo pose from the "you want the impossible" scene. Classic, but kind of boring.
A bit more interesting, one of my favorite poses, the "i was wondering, why are you here?" pose.
A bit more fun with "how you get so big eating food of this kind?"

Overview: Design and materials
Does your current workbench consist of two sawhorses and an old door slab? Well, my friend, it's time to upgrade. There are hundreds of workbench plans out there, but not many of them call for plywood. Plywood makes a flat, stable work surface, and it doesn't need to be clamped, glued or planed. And it can easily be replaced if it gets too beaten up after years of abuse. If the idea of building drawers makes you break into a cold sweat, then build your workbench with two shelf sections and forget about the drawers. But if your mantra is, "The more storage the better," then get yourself an additional half sheet each of 3/4-in. and 1/4-in. plywood, and build another two drawer sections to take the place of the lower shelf.
Simple, Sturdy Workbench
You get a workbench plan that's:
- Simple enough to build on a Saturday
- Easy enough for a beginner
- Strong enough to hold a V-8
- Tough enough to last a lifetime
Simple Workbench Components
4 legs, 2 boxes and a top: That's all there is to it. The legs are just 2x4s screwed together. The shelf and work surface could be constructed as simple boxes or made with drawer components. It's a perfect project for a beginner but a great bench for even the most advanced DIYer.
Step 1: Cut out the workbench parts
It's always nice to cut as many parts as possible before starting the assembly. That way, you can set aside the dust mask, safety glasses and hearing protection for longer periods of time, and the air isn't continually filled with sawdust. Cut everything except the lengths of the drawer components. In case things get a little out of whack during assembly, you'll be able to measure and fit the drawers to the actual openings.
Mark the cutting lines for your big sheets with a chalk line. Use a framing square to mark the lines for the smaller components, but don't forget that the blade will remove about 1/8 in. on every pass, so either add that space when you're marking, or mark and cut one at a time.
Start with the shelf top (C). Cut the whole length of the plywood. You'll have to freehand this one, but don't worry if your cut isn't perfect. The cut edge will be down low and backed up against the wall. Use the factory edge of the shelf top as a guide to cut the three other larger pieces (A, B, D; Photo 1). Think you might have trouble lugging around full sheets of plywood? Some home centers will cut them up for you if you ask.
After cutting the big parts to length, you'll have some medium-size chunks of plywood you can use as a guide to cut the smaller components, or you can clamp down your framing square as a guide. Next, cut the 2x4 legs (L). You can get two legs out of each 8-ft. 2x4 with about a 2-ft. piece left over. Set aside the remaining four 2-ft. pieces for use later. Cut the 2x4s that make up the shelf and drawer compartment frames (M—Q), starting with the long boards first.
Workbench Plans
For the names of the parts and their dimensions, see the Cutting List in "Additional Information" below. You can download and enlarge Fig. A Simple Workbench in "Additional Information" below.
The Cutting Diagram shows how to cut one sheet of 3/4-in. plywood. The second 3/4-in. sheet is much simpler: just cut lengthwise to yield parts C and D. Cut the drawer bottoms (J and K) from a 4 x 4-ft. sheet of 1/4-in. plywood.
You can download and enlarge the Cutting Diagram in "Additional Information" below.
Step 2: Assemble the shelf section and drawer section
Use the benchtop (D) as a temporary workbench (if you don't have a door slab). Join the 2x4 frame with one 3-in. screw in the middle of each corner. This will reduce the chances that screws will collide when you attach the legs. Secure the plywood shelf to the frame using 1-5/8- in. screws about 12 in. apart. Use glue on every joint except the top sheet of plywood—you may want to replace it someday.
Assemble the three 2x4s that make up the drawer compartment frame (M, N) with one 3-in. screw at both corners. Mark lines for the location of the drawer dividers (E). Driving screws into the end grain of plywood can cause it to split. You can avoid this by predrilling holes with a 1/8-in. drill bit. Attach the plywood drawer dividers to the frame using two 3-in. screws in each one (Photo 2).
Lay the drawer compartment bottom (B) on top of the frame, and mark lines on the front of the plywood to line up the front of the drawer dividers. Then mark lines across the top of the plywood for the location of the screws. Clamp the box down with the drawer dividers aligned, then predrill holes for the dividers (Photo 3). You can often eliminate small warps and bows in the plywood by starting at one end and working your way down the line. Screw the plywood down with 1-5/8- in. screws. Space the screws about 12 in. apart the long way and 8 in. the short.
Before you repeat the process to attach the top of the drawer compartment, install screen mold on each end of the drawer compartment with 3d 1-1/4-in. brad nails. This will help the outside drawers slide in straight once the legs are installed.
Step 3: Attach the legs and shelf
Preassemble the legs with three 3-in. screws in each leg. Flip the drawer box upside down. Position the legs so the seams are facing the ends of the workbench. Secure the legs with two 3-in. screws on each side of each leg. Use a framing square as a guide (Photo 4). Next, cut the four 2x4s you have left over from the legs to 16 in., and use them as temporary spacers for the shelf. Secure the shelf to the legs with two 3-in. screws on each side (Photo 5).
Step 4: Install the top and trim molding
Before you screw down the benchtop, predrill holes for the screw eyes that will act as drawer stops. Drill two 3/32-in. holes for each drawer opening, 2 in. in from the sides and 1-1/2 in. from the front (see Figure A). Align the benchtop flush with the back legs and even on each side. Secure it with a row of 1-1/4-in. screws down the front, back and middle, spaced about every 16 in. Again, you'll have more luck getting a flatter surface by starting at one end and working your way down the line.
Attach the screen mold to the end grain of the plywood. Don't worry about the back side if your bench is going to sit against a wall. Nail on the screen mold pieces with 1-1/4-in. brads (Photo 6).
Step 5: Build the drawers
Double-check the sizes of your drawer openings, and cut each drawer bottom width 1/4 in. smaller than its opening. Cut the sides of the drawers (F) so they will be exposed at the front. This won't look as nice, but it will make the drawer front stronger and keep it from pulling off after you fill the drawer with heavy tools and hardware.
Glue and clamp the drawer sides together, but before you nail them, attach the bottom with 1-1/4-in. brads. Remove one clamp and set the drawer on edge with the other clamp hanging off the side of the workbench. Nail each corner together with three 1-1/4-in. brads. Remove the other clamp, and nail the remaining two corners together. Work fast so the glue doesn't set up before you get it all put together. Repeat the process for the other three drawers (Photo 7).
Step 6: Apply the finish
It's hard to stain plywood without its looking blotchy, so after sanding down the rough and sharp edges, we finished our workbench with Minwax PolyShade, a combination stain and polyurethane. It can be brushed on like regular polyurethane but adds a little color in the process. We did one coat on the whole bench and then added a couple more coats of regular polyurethane to the work surfaces. Apply an extra coat or two to the bottom of the legs so they won't wick up moisture from your garage floor.
Attach the drawer pulls. We chose chest handles instead of standard drawer pulls because of their low profile. They won't get in the way when you're clamping projects down to the front edge of the workbench.
Install the screw eyes/drawer stops after you insert the drawers. You may need a small screwdriver for leverage on the last few turns. All that's left is to show off your handiwork to your wife or neighbor, and get started using your new workbench on your next project.

Malaysia's education minister rejected complaints from religious groups that schoolgirl uniforms were too sexy and invited rape by men. Education Minister Hishammuddin Hussein, responded by saying, "It is unfair to punish women and children and the clothes they wear for the act of rapists. From what I have seen, clothing is not the main consderation of those who commit despicable acts." The uniform became an issue after a little-known group, the National Islamic Students Association of Malaysia, claimed the loose fitting white blouse worn by schoolgirls was too transparent. The group which claims to represent 5,000 men, said the uniform "disturbs the eyes of men, whether they like to see it or not..Because of that molestation, premarital sex and all kinds of things occur."
The women's wing of the oppostition Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party, urged education authorities to pay attention to the complaint. "We can't ignore the fact that the material used to make thse uniforms is too thin and it makes the girls look sexy, especially when they are not wearing the heard scarf, which can cover their chests."
Lost in the complaint is the simple reality that men who don't want to become sexually aroused can look down at the ground when encountering schoolgirls. Of course, it appears the men who are becoming sexually aroused are the ones making the complaint. Perhaps, they might consider the possibility that girls are not attracted to the men who are becoming aroused.
