PA Arabs to Radical anti-Zionist Gilad Atzmon: Don´t Help Us (INN) ISRAEL NATIONAL NEWS) By David Lev 03/15/12)
Source: http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/153784#.T2IraMWO2So
INN} ISRAEL NATIONAL NEWS Articles-Index-Top
Israeli-born Gilad Atzmon, who has made a career out of condemning Israel and rejecting his Jewish roots, fully identifying with and promoting the Arab position on the illegitimacy of Israel and Zionism, and affirming the most egregious of anti-Semitic allegations, has been rejected by the Arabs for whom he advocates. In a letter published by the PA´s Ma´an news agency Thursday, a long list of PA activists, professors, writers, and advocates from around the world said that they disavowed Atzmon, noting the dangers of supporting Atzmons political work and writings and providing any platform for their dissemination.
Atzmon, who is considered one of Britain´s most accomplished jazz musicians, was born in Israel and served in the IDF during the war in Lebanon in 1982. Afterwards, he emigrated to Britain, where he started performing and building his jazz career, while at the same time speaking and writing about what he calls Israel´s theft of Palestine from the Arabs, Jewish supremacy and racism, and use of the Holocaust to justify the occupation. He has endorsed the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, and in 2005 wrote that American Jews do control the world, by proxy. So far they are doing pretty well for themselves at least.
Atzmon´s political work, which includes hundreds of essays published around the world, as well as several books, has been lauded by, among others, Richard Falk, James Petras, and John Mearsheimer, all of whom have been highly critical of Israel and Zionism, to say the least. Mearsheimer, who with Stephen Walt wrote a 2007 book exposing the Israel lobby, endorsed Atzmon´s 2011 book The Wandering Who, but later issued a statement qualifying that endorsement, over comments Atzmon made in the book that the Jews persecuted Hitler and traffic in body parts. Responding to criticism of him for endorsing what many in the anti-Zionist activist community called anti-Semitism, Mearsheimer wrote that although the book was filled with interesting insights, but I do not agree with everything that he says in the book.
Central to Atzmon´s thesis is rejection of his Judaism, from which Zionism derives its strength. To be Jewish, Atzmon claims, is to be Zionist, and one who wishes to support the Palestinian cause must deny their Jewish heritage. It is this position that the PA intellectuals reject, and in a letter issued Wednesday, they told Atzmon that his help for their cause was not needed, or wanted.
"We reaffirm that there is no room in this historic and foundational analysis of our struggle for any attacks on our Jewish allies, Jews, or Judaism; nor denying the Holocaust; nor allying in any way shape or form with any conspiracy theories, far-right, orientalist, and racist arguments, associations and entities, the letter says. Zionism, to Atzmon, is not a settler-colonial project, but a trans-historical ´Jewish´ one, part and parcel of defining ones self as a Jew. Therefore, he claims, one cannot self-describe as a Jew and also do work in solidarity with Palestine, because to identify as a Jew is to be a Zionist. We could not disagree more.
Challenging Zionism, including the illegitimate power of institutions that support the oppression of Palestinians, and the illegitimate use of Jewish identities to protect and legitimize oppression, must never become an attack on Jewish identities, nor the demeaning and denial of Jewish histories in all their diversity, the letter adds.
Indeed, we regard any attempt to link and adopt antisemitic or racist language, even if it is within a self-described anti- imperialist and anti-Zionist politics, as reaffirming and legitimizing Zionism... It leaves one squarely outside true solidarity with Palestine and its people. (IsraelNationalNews © 2012 03/15/12)

Swift Boat Vets chairman's evolving story about knowing Kerry in Vietnam
Research ››› ››› KATIE BARGE
Retired Adm. Roy Hoffmann, chairman and co-founder of Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, has changed his story about whether or not he actually knew Senator John Kerry in Vietnam.
May 6: "Hoffman acknowledged he had no first-hand knowledge to discredit Kerry's claims to valor and said that although Kerry was under his command, he really didn't know Kerry much personally." [Milwaukee Journal Sentinel]
August 4: "'I knew him well enough to know him," Hoffman said. 'He's the most vain individual I've ever met - aloof and arrogant.'" [Scripps Howard News Service]
August 5: Hoffman said, "We were on the same operations, we were operating within 25-50 yards of him all the time, and for them to suggest we don't know John Kerry is pure old bull." [The New York Times]
August 5: In response to Senator John McCain's (R-AZ) denunciation of the ad, Hoffman "said they respected McCain's 'right to express his opinion and we hope he extends to us the same respect and courtesy, particularly since we served with John Kerry, we knew him well and Sen. McCain did not.'" [Associated Press]
August 5: Hoffman said, "I knew him well, because I operated very closely with him and, uh, many of the operations, uh, most of the operations were-were conducted with multiple boats" - a dramatic shift from admitting no personal knowledge of Kerry three months earlier; it went unchallenged by his host. [ABC Radio's Sean Hannity Show]
In the Swift Boat Veterans' ad, Hoffman states, "John Kerry has not been honest." Well, he should know.

LISTEN: Family Calls 911 on Crazy Cat
Don't mess with this cat.
A Portland family subjected to calling 911 on their 22lbs cat, Lux.
It all started with a tail tug by the 7-month-old child, and the cat got angry. Lux then attacked the baby, and everything escalated from there! The boyfriend then kicked the angry cat. Lux then jumped on top of the fridge and followed the family causing to back up into the bedroom.
The family called animal control, but they did not pick up. Then, they called 911 and reported what happened. The cops came to the house and saw the Himalayan cat trying to run. Apparently, Lux has a "history of violence." He currently remains in the family household, and he has yet to bother the family since the incident.
The baby only suffered mild scratches, nothing that called for medical attention.
Looks like Lux got a second chances!

"Vista Capable" Class Action Suit Against Microsoft Moves Forward
Jason Mick
February 25, 2008 1:31 AM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
A lawsuit against Microsoft, alleging it intentionally deceived by labeling underpowered PCs "Vista Capable" wins class action status
reported earlier this month
on a pending lawsuit
, which sought
class action against Microsoft for allegedly knowingly deceiving consumers
by labeling underpowered computers "Vista Capable", when the computers could only run a bare bones version of Vista lacking many features. The suit alleged that Microsoft's practice was designed to increase sales at the user's expense.
While the suit seemed somewhat tenuous due to the extensive easy to reach online documentation on system specifics needed and levels of capability, it was strengthened by leaked internal emails from Microsoft which painted a picture of many Microsoft employees and executives venting frustration about the program, which
they believed was inaccurate
Several employees claimed to be personally affected by the claims, and said the management involved, "
really botched this." Wrote one Microsoft employee,
Mike Nash,
"I PERSONALLY got burnt ... Are we seeing this from a lot of customers? ... I now have a $2,100 e-mail machine."
A federal judge,
U.S. District Judge Marsha Pechman,
granted the suit class action status
, but slightly narrowed its scope. She ruled that a class action could proceed with the intent of determining whether Microsoft's stickers caused an artificial demand for PCs during the 2006 holiday shopping season, and inflated the prices of computers which couldn't be upgraded to Windows Vista, when it
released in January 2007
Ironically neither of the two people filing the original lawsuit had took part in Microsoft's upgrade program. However, despite not purchasing Windows Vista, they argued that they were still hurt as they had to pay a higher price for their PCs while getting a computer that could only run a basic version of Windows Vista.
The Judge did say that if the pair added a named plaintiff who participated in the "Express Upgrade" program they could pursue the class action claims concerning the limited functionality as well.
One of Windows Vista's most touted features is
the Aero interface
. However, it takes considerable overhead to run, and thus many of the machines labeled "Windows Vista," were unable to support it and could only run Windows Vista in a more graphically barren mode.
Microsoft did not comment on the suit, but may appeal the ruling.
"We can't expect users to use common sense. That would eliminate the need for all sorts of legislation, committees, oversight and lawyers." -- Christopher Jennings

MBTA officer who lost all blood in shootout with bombing suspects is expected to recover
The Massachusetts transit officer who was shot while responding to Friday's shooting that killed a Massachusetts Institute of Technology police officer—and sparked the citywide manhunt for the Boston Marathon bombing suspects—went into cardiac arrest and lost his entire blood supply but is expected to recover, doctors say.
Richard Donohue Jr., a 33-year-old member of the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority, was shot in the right thigh during a shootout with the suspects in Cambridge, Mass., late Friday. A bullet severed Donahue's femoral vein and artery, Dr. David Miller, a critical care physician at Mount Auburn Hospital, said on Sunday, and he began to "bleed out."
He went into cardiac arrest at the scene, and it took doctors 45 minutes to fully revive him, the hospital said.

Rangers acquire A's Choice, Bostick
Texas trades speedy Gentry, righty Lindblom to Oakland
By Danny Wild / MiLB.com | December 3, 2013 10:58 AM ET
Michael Choice is heading home, and he's a little excited about it.
"Wow!!!! What a crazy day!" Choice Tweeted on Tuesday. "This is Awesome! Can't wait!"
Choice, a Fort Worth, Texas, native, was part of a four-player trade on Tuesday that sent Rangers outfielder Craig Gentry and right-hander Josh Lindblom to Oakland in exchange for Choice and 20-year-old second base prospect Chris Bostick.
Choice, who was ranked as the A's No. 2 prospect, will try to get back to the Majors in 2014, four years after he was selected in the first round of the 2010 Draft out of the University of Texas-Arlington. According to MLB.com, Choice is now the top candidate to be the Rangers' starting left fielder in 2014 if the team does not bring back Nelson Cruz or sign a free agent like Shin-Soo Choo or Carlos Beltran.
"It's something I've always dreamed about, playing at home," Choice told the Associated Press.
A 2013 Pacific Coast League All-Star, Choice was Oakland's organizational Player of the Year in 2011, a season after he left Texas as the school's career home run king. He hit .302 with 14 homers, 89 RBIs and a .390 on-base percentage in 132 games at Triple-A Sacramento in 2013 while also making his Major League debuting and appearing in nine games for Oakland.
"Michael is a guy we followed in his amateur days literally down the block," Rangers general manager Jon Daniels told ESPN Dallas. "He has a chance to hit and hit for power, is athletic and can play all three outfield spots."
Bostick, who was ranked as Oakland's No. 17 prospect at the time of the deal, has raised his stock in recent years since being selected in the 44th round of the 2011 Draft. A right-handed infielder, Bostick hit .282 with 14 homers, 89 RBIs, 25 stolen bases and a .354 OBP in 129 games with Class A Beloit in 2013.
It was a breakout campaign for the Rochester, N.Y., native, who hit just .251 with three homers and 29 RBIs at Class A Short-Season Vermont in 2012. He was the Midwest League's Player of the Week on June 17 after a six-game stretch that included four homers and 11 RBIs.
Gentry, valued primarily for his speed and elite outfield defense, hit .280 with 24 stolen bases for the Rangers in 2013, while Lindblom went 1-3 with a 5.46 ERA in eight appearances for Texas. At Triple-A Round Rock, the righty was 8-4 with a 3.08 ERA in 18 starts and two relief outings.
"Craig has been a big contributor and a big piece of our club, an underrated piece of our club," Daniels said.

Would you like to save as your currency permanently or for this visit only?
The hotel is absolutely great. We really felt like at home. The owner, Bruno, offering great service and treat you like his best friend. Rooms are excellent, breakfast is great. The view is just fantastic. It's a pity we had only a few days there and couldn't make testing of their own wines. I will definitely go there for more.
The people, the wine, the area. In fact - everything, except the pizzaria down the road who appeared to have a dislike for English people.
the location was beautiful, surrounded by a cathedral, vineyards, rolling hills and other homes similar to Del Tufo - Bruno and Agatha made us feel welcomed and at home in their home. It was difficult to find - Google maps does okay to a point, but route #'s end at a certain point and you're basically on your own - a detailed map would be helpful.
No one else was there Beware of barking dogs all night
Tranquil atmosphere. Fantastic views. Charming hospitality. No air conditioning. Staff couldn't speak one word of English (and we can't speak Italian)

Columbia River Knife & Tool
Now there are two patented* knives that sharpen themselves, thanks to inventor Maj. Howard Pope and knifemaker Steve Jernigan.
Since the dawn of human history, man has dreamed of a knife that would sharpen itself during normal use. Here it is, the patented* brainchild of inventor Maj. Howard Pope (USAR Ret.), who collaborated with custom knifemaker and Knifemakers' Guild member Steve Jernigan. We call it the Edgie™ line, because they hone their edges every time they are opened or closed.
The secret is diamond-coated spring sharpeners built into the folder frames, placed at the precise angle to give the blades a sharpening stroke as they are closed and opened. Not only do you never need to sharpen the Edgie blade with stones or wheels, but you should not, because it may alter the blade's proper self-sharpening edge angle. Of course, it is important during a long cutting work session to periodically open and close the blade to maintain the edge.
A note about the cutting edge. The diamond sharpening strips cause a tiny burr to form, acting as a microserration, which helps cutting action. This makes the Edgie tops for cutting cardboard boxes, rope, cord, garden stalks, and even ripe tomatoes. The more you sharpen Edgie models, the more pronounced this microserration honing becomes. For those who are used to a traditional Razor-Sharp edge, it may be disconcerting, but it is the secret of why the blades cut through fibrous materials so effectively.
All Edgie models feature removable stainless steel clips in satin finish.
Edgie™ 2. Steve Jernigan came up with a dual-edged Edgie lockback with a 3.25" blade. The "American Eagle Wharncliffe" blade grind tapers at the tip for better penetration and much easier cutting of thick materials such as corrugated cardboard.
Again, the frame is superstrong thanks to our stainless steel InterFrame build with Zytel scales. A textured surface and soft grooved TPR insert give excellent grip under all conditions.available.
The long blade slot allows easy one-hand opening. The lockback release is at the butt for exceptional lockup safety.
That's the Edgie story. It's not too glamorous, just a tale of affordable and tough little work knives designed to take a lot of use and stay sharp.
- Blade: Length: 3.25" (83 mm)
- Thickness: 0.10" (2.5 mm)
- Steel: 5Cr15MoV, 55-57 HRC
- Closed: Handle length: 5.30" (135 mm)
- Open: Overall length: 7.50" (191 mm)
- Weight: 4.3 oz. (122 g)
The lockback system has been used for many decades. It can usually be found on the knife spine and it provides a strong lockup that will wear well.
Includes a pocket clip for easy accessibility and a more secure carry.
A nylon polymer that is lightweight and extremely durable, Zytel can be shaped and textured to provide excellent grip.

Boot from a Live CD
Boot from a Live CD
To boot from any CD (Including LiveCDs), you must make sure that your BIOS bootup settings allow this. This is usually changed from the BIOS setup menu. The BIOS bootup menu is usually accessed during the first few seconds after powering on your computer.
The BIOS setup access key is often displayed on your screen (often it is the F2, Delete, or F10 key), depending on your BIOS. Further, most recent BIOS's allow a one-time choice of the bootup medium, so that either a CD or USB can be chosen as the bootup medium on a one-time basis (without changing the regular BIOS settings).
If the BIOS on your computer does not allow a one-time bootup-medium choice and you must change the regular BIOS settings temporarily, then enter the BIOS setup menu and hunt around for the settings for Bootup device priority (sometimes in the Advanced Setup menu). Make sure your CD/DVD optical drive is listed as the first boot device, before the hard drive.
If you intend to use a LiveUSB installation instead of a LiveCD, then set the boot order so that the USB drive is listed first, before the hard drive. (Obviously, your BIOS must allow booting from a USB drive for this option to be available.)
Once you have installed all your operating systems from the LiveCDs or LiveUSBs (or finished using other bootable LiveCDs or LiveUSBs such as GParted), you can reset the first bootup device to be the hard drive again.
After installation, most security experts then recommend restricting bootup to the hard drive only. A BIOS password should also be created so that the BIOS bootup settings cannot be changed by a casual passerby. In this manner a casual passerby will not be able to boot their own LiveCD or LiveUSB onto your computer (and thereby potentially change your computer without your permission).
If your computer, device, or hardware uses UEFI instead of a BIOS bootup system, then see this page.
If your computer, device, or hardware uses Coreboot instead of a BIOS bootup system, then see this page.

BREVARD, N.C.-The Brevard college women's volleyball team took the opening set from Newberry College before the Wolves won three straight sets to earn a 3-1 win in South Atlantic Conference action in Boshamer Gymnasium on Tuesday night.
Newberry (8-2, 3-2 SAC) won the match by scores of 20-25, 25-19, 25-18, and 25-16.
Brevard (3-6, 0-5 SAC) used a pair of 4-0 runs to steal the first set, scoring four unanswered to take a 13-8 lead on a kill by Megan Clark and later putting the set out of Newberry's reach with four straight points to go in front 24-18.
The Tornados clinched the set, 25-20, on a Newberry set error. Fatima Gharachorloo had two kills and a pair of service aces in the opening set.
Newberry rebounded after the loss in the opening set to take three straight sets and the match, benefitting from a match-high 13 kills by Samantha Parrish. Jessica King threw in 12 kills with the help of 45 set assists from Chelsea Mayor.
Erin Rollins paced BC with nine kills, while Clark and Gharachorloo combined for 15 kills for the Tornados.
Freshman Aleksandra Vrvilo pitched in a game-high 17 digs defensively for Brevard.
The Tornados continue their conference home stand as they host the Anderson University Trojans in Boshamer Gymnasium on Friday, September 27th at 7 p.m.

Authorities in Chattanooga, Tenn., arrested Dodgers prospect Yasiel Puig on charges of reckless driving, speeding and driving without proof of insurance Sunday, according to the Hamilton County Sheriff.
The 22-year-old outfielder is on the roster of the Chattanooga Lookouts, the Dodgers' Double-A affiliate, and is on the disabled list with a sprained left thumb.
Puig signed a seven-year, $42 million contract with the Dodgers last June after defecting from Cuba, and left a significant impression in spring training. His .517 batting average led all players in spring, and his 1.328 OPS was second, tagging Puig as a can't-miss prospect.
"We're aware of the situation and we take it very seriously," a Dodgers spokesperson said. "We'll be handling discipline internally."
It's unwelcome news for a franchise looking to reverse eight years' worth of negative headlines spurred by Frank McCourt, who spent lavishly on himself and drove the team into bankruptcy as the team's owner. The Dodgers would like to see Sunday's news become an isolated incident and not part of a pattern of behavior.
In March, manager Don Mattingly cited Puig's maturity as one reason why the outfielder was sent to Chattanooga to begin the season. Asked Sunday if that sentiment was limited to Puig's maturity as a baseball player, Mattingly said, "Yeah, for the most part," and cited two baseball reasons: His defensive play in the outfield and his baserunning.
General manager Ned Colletti said in March that Puig's demotion was largely due to playing time.
Ramirez update
Hanley Ramirez went 2 for 3 with a single, double and an RBI in a rehabilitation game for the Single-A Rancho Cucamonga Quakes. He played six innings in the field at shortstop, as scheduled, and started a double play.
Ramirez also went 1 for 3 in a six-inning stint with the Quakes on Saturday, which impressed Mattingly enough to believe that Ramirez could be back with the Dodgers today.
"Anything's possible," Mattingly said.
Dodgers assistant athletic trainer Greg Harrel attended the game in Rancho Cucamonga. The determining factor in where Ramirez plays today, Mattingly said, is "if medical says this guy's ready to play."
The only certainty is Ramirez won't be in Rancho Cucamonga again. The Quakes get the day off while traveling to Stockton. If Ramirez needs another rehab game, "he'd have to go to Albuquerque," Mattingly said.
The Triple-A Albuquerque Isotopes begin an eight-game homestand today.
Ellis update
Mark Ellis was in good spirits after throwing and taking batting practice Sunday morning, two days after the Dodgers second baseman strained his right quadriceps running out a groundball.
"So far I can swing the bat," Ellis said. "I can throw fine. I'm still kind of day to day but I'm optimistic."
Mattingly said it's "still kind of up in the air" whether Ellis will go on the disabled list.

Without the 1.5 HP Electric Pole Saw, Alexander the Great may not have been so great! According to a dusty scroll found three days ago in the backroom of an Albanian spice merchant's warehouse along the Adriatic, Alexander III of Macedon (A3 as he was called) inherited the kingdom from his father Phillip II who had been assassinated. Upon being named successor to the throne, A3 walked out to his backyard and there stood an olive tree that reached toward the sky. He declared "I will climb this tree and as far as I can see, I will conquer!" A bold statement. Unfortunately, the tree was so dense with branches, he could only climb up a few feet. From that vantage point, he was able to see as far as two of his neighbors' yards, which he summarily conquered. He was then called Alexander the Terrible Neighbor.
In order to climb higher, Alexander the Terrible Neighbor needed to get rid of those darn branches. He went to Harbor Freight Tools, which had a store in Amphipolis, and purchased the 1.5 HP Electric Pole Saw. Well, it wasn't actually electric back then, but the motor did come with a horse and a pony, hence, 1.5 horsepower. Anyway, he went back to the olive tree and started to cut more branches. Alexander was impressed with the features of the Pole Saw, which included a telescoping fiber glass pole that extended from 6 ft. to 8ft. 10 inches in length, 9-1/2 inch bar with 3/8 inch pitch Oregon® chain, automatic chain oiler, reduced kickback design, hand guard and easy chain adjustment. Midway through a branch, the saw broke but Alexander the Terrible Neighbor had kept his receipt so he returned the broken saw to the store and received a replacement without any hassle.
Back to the tree. He finished up cutting and then climbed. This time he was able to see as far as the subcontinent of India. He then sent messengers to all credit card companies and wireless carriers throughout his current empire and vowed that when he conquered India, he would establish customer service centers for all of them. The outsourcing saved these companies millions of drachma. As a reward, the Macedonian Better Business Bureau awarded Alexander a Lucite plaque and dubbed him Alexander the Great.
Today, you only need to conquer street traffic or a slow Internet connection to behold the 1.5 HP Electric Pole Saw from Harbor Freight Tools. Not only will you enjoy the fabulous features and ease of use, but you'll become the envy of your neighbors, provided you leave their yards alone.

By John Boyle Herald Writer
RENTON — If you were surprised to learn that, in an attempt to bolster their pass rush, the Seattle Seahawks signed Patrick Chukwurah, a player who hasn't been on an NFL roster since 2008, you weren't alone.
Chukwurah could hardly believe it himself.
When he got the call asking if he wanted to fly to Seattle for a tryout, Chukwurah initially wasn't sure if his agent was being serious. Once he realized this opportunity was real, Chukwurah, "Just jumped on the first thing smoking and came out here."
The 33-year-old Chukwurah, who most recently played two seasons in the UFL before that league folded, hasn't played organized football of any sorts for more than a year. Yet he was impressive enough in a tryout Tuesday that the Seahawks signed him over other better-known defensive ends, a result that even he had a hard time believing.
"Honestly, no," Chukwurah said when asked if he still thought an NFL comeback was realistic. "I was really set on moving on and starting the next chapter, so it's definitely a blessing."
That next chapter will just have to wait, which is obviously just fine for Chukwurah, who was working as a personal trainer in Tampa, Fla. Now, instead of helping other people reach their fitness goals, Chukwurah may very well find himself on the field during a playoff game Sunday, which is pretty remarkable considering he spent last Sunday watching the Seahawks beat Washington on TV while eating chicken wings.
Though, if you think the fact that Chukwurah was eating wings and watching TV means the Seahawks signed some out-of-shape guy off his couch, you couldn't be further from the truth. Chukwurah is something of a fitness nut — the guy has a fully-defined six pack while sitting down — and he allows himself just one "cheat day" per week when it comes to junk food, which is the only reason he was indulging last weekend.
Chukwurah, despite his limited NFL background — he started five games and had nine sacks in six seasons with Minnesota, Denver and Tampa Bay — wasn't a mystery to the Seahawks. While in Tampa Bay in 2007 and 2008, he played under current Seahawks defensive coordinator Gus Bradley and defensive line coach Todd Wash. But that familiarity only got him so far, and it was Chukwurah's impressive workout Tuesday that allowed him to win a job.
"When we were with him in Tampa and now, he has one of the best bodies there is in the league," Wash said. "He keeps himself in top, top shape. He really hasn't lost much of a step over the years. He's kept himself in great shape and he keeps a lot of pride in that, which is why he's got a shot to come in and help us out."
This signing would seem completely crazy and ill-advised if not for the fact that the Seahawks have become Super Bowl contenders in part by making moves that left everyone scratching their heads at the time.
Seahawks coach Pete Carroll and John Schneider aren't all that interesting in making moves that earn praise from pundits as long as the end result is an improved roster.
They assembled the NFL's best secondary by signing a cornerback out of the CFL, drafting a receiver-turned corner in the fifth round and by starting an over-sized fifth-round pick at strong safety. The Seahawks' quarterback is too short, their right guard played defensive tackle in college and they built a run-stuffing defense by moving a 320-pound tackle to defensive end.
Heck, even Chris Clemons, the team's sack leader whom Chukwurah is replacing on the roster, was a relatively unknown player when Seattle acquired him in a 2010 trade.
So even though this move looks a little odd — OK, a lot odd — the Seahawks' front office has earned the benefit of the doubt when it comes to moves that defy conventional wisdom. And man, what a story it would be if this one pans out.
"It's a cool story," Carroll said. "Imagine sitting home, you're working out, and the phone rings, and you're going to the playoffs. It's a pretty cool story for the kid and I'm excited for him."
It's such a cool story, in fact, that Chukwurah was still having a hard time wrapping his head around it as he wrapped tape around his ankles in preparation for his first NFL practice in more than four years.
"I couldn't fathom it," he said. "It never came in my mind that something like this could happen. It was straight out of the blue, and I thank the lord for it. I just want to make the best out of it. If this is my last run, hopefully it's a run where we go to the Super Bowl.
"It'd be a great story to get a Super Bowl ring."

Coping With Anger
http://www.cancer.net/all-about-cancer/ … ping-anger
This was a good one. Anger is not only for the person going through the cancer but the caregivers and loved ones too. I am stuck at the anger point right now.....and what makes me the angriest is mowing the stupid yard...silly thing to get so angry about but there it is. I see a gal every week (or as close as possible) as she has been a tremendous help.
It was good to know that it's okay and part of the whole process.
Kris put on those pink boxing gloves and let the anger out. Don't laugh but I would get in the car, put on Mama Mia and sing my heart out, singing is good for you. I would drive around singing at the top of my lungs and go home feeling hoarse but refreshed. Mmmmm maybe that is why they asked us to move! JK LOL
Kris...Funny but not funny to you. I hear you. Always mowed the yard, but there are so many other tasks I did not want to take on.
Still, you made me laugh.
Lainy - It's funny that you talk about driving and singing....I do that a lot. I am a terrible singer expect when it's in the car....my family always knows when I had a bad day when the can hear the music when I pull in the driveway. They used to run and hide.
Marion - It really is funny about mowing the lawn....it's not like Mark ever mowed it except when we had a rider....we always had the kids do it before. We have a big yard about 1/2 an acre and a push mower. There are so many other things to get angry about....all those projects like the leaky bath tub I should get upset about but I just finish them and move on....but the lawn is sure to drive me to tears every time. I finally told him the other day when he caught me crying after I mowed it. I think it made him really think about how much I have taken on. I think he is trying harder to do the things he can now.

Harry Styles and Kendall Jenner hit up snowboard shop in Mammoth
Harry Styles and Kendall Jenner are still going strong.
Despite reports the couple had split because he supposedly found her "boring," Styles and Jenner were spotted at a snowboard shop in Mammoth Lakes, California on Thursday.
A fan named Allie Connolly posted Twitter photos of herself posing separately with the pair (see below), telling followers, "Casually hanging out with Kendall Jenner and Harry Styles. #dying."
However, after getting attacked by some One Direction fans, Connolly regretted sharing the picture.
She tweeted:
Lol now I have 14 year olds telling me that I was paid to make this a publicity stunt. Yep, you caught me hahahah

Winstead Named to Head GSA's Public Buildings Service
October 3, 2005
Contact: MaryAnne Beatty, (202) 501-1231
Washington, D.C.— The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) today announced the appointment of David L. Winstead as Commissioner of GSA's Public Buildings Service.
"I am pleased that David Winstead will join the GSA senior management team as Commissioner of Public Buildings," said GSA Administrator Stephen A. Perry. "He will bring a great deal of experience and professionalism to this position."
Prior to his appointment, Mr. Winstead was a partner with the law firm of Holland & Knight LLP practicing in the areas of real estate, transportation, public law and government procurement, and has had prior public sector management experience.
"I am honored by the opportunity to serve the President as a member of Administrator Perry's management team, and look forward to advancing the mission of the Public Buildings Service—providing workspace solutions to federal customer agencies, and the best value to the taxpayer."
He also served as the State of Maryland's Secretary of Transportation as well as Executive Director of the Washington/Baltimore Regional Association—a private sector economic development alliance between the metropolitan Washington and Baltimore areas.
Throughout his career, Mr. Winstead has been active in real estate and infrastructure matters, having served as President and Counsel to the DC/Suburban Maryland Chapter of the National Association of Industrial and Office Properties (NAIOP), and President of the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO). He has been a member of the Urban Land Institute, Greater Washington Board of Trade, Maryland Municipal League, and the Advisory Board to the John Hopkins University's Master of Science in Real Estate.
Winstead holds a Bachelor of Arts in Economics from Denison University, Master of Business Administration from Columbia University, and a Juris Doctorate from Washington, DC's Columbus School of Law.
GSA's Public Buildings Service is the landlord for the civilian federal government overseeing an inventory of 340 million square feet of workspace in more than 8,000 public and private buildings accommodating one million federal employees in 2,100 American communities.
GSA is a centralized, federal procurement, property management, policy development and information provision agency, created by Congress to improve government efficiency and help federal agencies better serve the public. In this role, GSA acquires products and services on behalf of federal agencies; plays a key role in developing and implementing government-wide policies; provides services and solutions for the office operations of more than one million federal workers; and encourages a citizen-centric relationship with government by providing a single "point of entry" to the information and services citizens need in a timeframe they can appreciate. This allows citizens to receive accurate, timely and consistent answers and information, and helps federal agencies better respond to citizen inquiries.

What are the best natural ways to induce a pregnancy that has carried over term?

Hi dwright7799,
When you say 'over term' are you talking about over 42 weeks of pregnancy? Full term is considered to be between 37 and 42 weeks of pregnancy and it is normal for a baby to be born at any point between these dates. Only 5% of babies are born on their due date and for some babies, and women, a normal length pregnancy is 41 or 42 weeks.
The natural ways to induce labour will only really 'tip' a woman into labour if she is ready and needs that final extra little something to get things going. Some of these natural methods work by helping a woman to release the hormone Oxytocin. This is sometimes called the 'feel-good hormone' or the 'love hormone' and it is also the hormone which is released during labour. Ways to release this hormone include nipple stimulation and making love.
Another natural way to induce labour is to stimulate the gut to help set off contractions. You can try eating a spicy curry to do this. In the past, women sometimes used to try drinking a concoction involving Castor Oil (again with the aim of stimulating the gut). However, this method is no longer recommended as it can cause diarrhoea which is not helpful during labour.
The third category of natural labour inducing methods involve relaxing and visualising your cervix dilating and your baby starting to move down the birth canal. A doula once told me that sometimes women do not go into labour when they are so busy doing everything else (this is particularly true for mums who already have young children) that they do not give their body a chance to stop, slow down and relax. You can take a long, gentle walk, have a relaxing bath or put on some music and think about your baby's arrival.
Please do post back here if you have any further questions.
Warm wishes,

Rick Mikkelson joined the art faculty in 1969. He was chairperson of the Art Department for 10 years and now is professor of drawing and painting. Originally from the Red River Valley in Minnesota, he received his B.A. in art in 1965 from Concordia College in Moorhead, Minn. He received his M.A. and M.F.A. degrees in painting from the University of Iowa in 1967 and 1969. His work has been exhibited throughout the United States and Canada and is in numerous private and public collections.
Professor Mikkelson works in oils and watercolor and a variety of drawing media. His subjects consist of landscapes, figures, and allegorical still lifes. The landscapes are from both Spain and Minnesota; however, most of his landscapes are based on areas in the Red River Valley of western Minnesota, particularly Breckenridge, a small railroad town where he lived in his youth. While his drawings and paintings are very representational, his concerns are also with abstraction and symbolism, and the content of his work comes as much from the form as from the subject matter.

Hate, like, love and prefer
We can use hate, like, love and prefer with an -ing form or with a to-infinitive:
I hate to see food being thrown away.
I love going to the cinema.
I prefer listening to the news on radio than watching it on TV.
He prefers not to wear a tie to work.
In American English, the forms with to-infinitive are much more common than the -ing form.
There is a very small difference in meaning between the two forms. The -ing form emphasises the action or experience. The to-infinitive gives more emphasis to the results of the action or event. We often use the -ing form to suggest enjoyment (or lack of it), and the to-infinitive form to express habits or preferences.
emphasis on the experience/action
a habit or preference
The -ing form is more common than the to-infinitive form after hate and love:
I hate decorating. I'd rather pay a professional to do it.
Would + hate, like, love, prefer
When we use would or 'd with hate, like, love, prefer, we use the to-infinitive, not the -ing form:
We would love to hear you sing.
We would love hearing you sing.
They'd hate to cause a problem.
They'd hate causing a problem.
I'd prefer not to give you my name.
I'd prefer not giving you my name.

REDLANDS - It may be a rainy and - if Thursday and Friday were any indication - dangerous weekend for motorists.
By midafternoon on Friday, Redlands was experiencing soft but consistent rainfall. It was a small amount of rain for the city, 0.15 inches, but that number could rise as rain continued into the evening.
Rain is expected on and off through the weekend across much of Southern California.
And the weather wasn't expected to warm up, either. Accuweather.com predicted temperatures in the high 60s and lows in the high 40s both today and Sunday.
The modest rainfall managed to create a bit of havoc for Southland drivers.
The California Highway Patrol said it handled
283 crashes in Los Angeles County for the 14-hour period ending at 2 p.m. Thursday.
That was more than three times the 75 crashes that were reported in the same period a week earlier, when it wasn't raining.
"People are driving a little too fast and they're not able to stop, and they're bouncing off each other," said Sgt. Kurt Smith, a supervisor with the Los Angeles police Valley Traffic Division.

"Is there a problem officers?"
What we have in-house...
I wonder what, if anything, Coach Pole will be doing during the offseason viz. reviewing the pitchers and film etc.
You can bet the farm that there will be an addition to this rotation that's not in the organization right now.
Maybe two.
"Strickland Propane... Taste the meat, not the heat." - Hank Hill
Armas Jr.
SP and the 1B platoon is really the only spots left for WK to fill. I think he'll make a run at Wolf/Armas Jr and others on that tier.
If Junior moves to RF and Deno is in CF, Elizardo could be much more effective up here next year. I know he isn't a high ceiling guy, but I think he's not given nearly enough credit. He pitched quite well before getting abused and injured late last year. He's still quite young (24 in January) and has a strong track record of not walking people and keeping the ball in the yard. With a better defense, better health, and more experience, I don't think we could ask for much more out of the #5 spot in the rotation.
Also, I haven't looked around, but how many other teams have 2 30+ GS, sub 4 ERA guys at the top of the rotation. There aren't as many "solid" guys out there as you might think. Look at the rotation the Cards won with last year. It was Carpenter and nobody during the regular season.

Games are won on run differential -- scoring more than your opponent. Runs are runs, scored or prevented they all count the same. Worry about scoring more and allowing fewer, not which positions contribute to which side of the equation or how "consistent" you are at your current level of performance.
1. Harang and 2. Arroyo -- Locks
3. Milton -- Unless some GM somewhere has an undetected accident to his brain (Jim Hendry? JimBo?), Milton will probably be in the rotation.
4. This may be a contest between Ramirez, Claussen and Lohse. Lohse is the healthiest of the three, but is more expensive and IMO stinks. If either Ramirez or Claussen can rehab from their surgeries of 2006, they may be in the rotation. Belisle may also get a shot at this competition.
5. FA or trade--unknown who it will be but with the extra cash WK has to spend, I can't see why they can't sign someone for up to $10 million. (Of course, let us hope it is better than the last FA SP signing--see #3 above).
Homer Bailey will, I believe, start the year at AAA.
I don't think it's wise for a team like the Reds to ignore their rotation just because the Cards pulled away from an awful, awful division. (And, for the record, by the end of the season, the Cards had two totally legitimate starters in Suppan and Carpenter--Suppan just had a rough half season--his first in three years).

Bailey's a solid #3 right now.
That's like getting lucky with a Gil Meche or a Randy Wolf without the pay hike.
Cincinnati needs two starters, though they may not recognize which two to jettison.
IMO Claussen would be best use as a spot starter/long relief.. at least till all star break. Hopefully Lohse can pitch like the first few games he started for us after the trade. Lohse has the mentality that he is out to prove those who doubt him and his ability. Also I think this is last year for arbitration before becoming a free agent. With that said lets hope him and Milton go out and pitch for a huge contract.
Still with that said I think we need a #3 guy. Names that could bargin signings would be Mulder, Wolf, Eaton, and Armas... when I say bargin.. I mean fit the Reds budget.

SIG SAUER Tactical 2
The Tactical 2 is the most advanced version of the precision rifle developed by Blaser. Each design element was driven by the requirement to create the best shooting platform possible.
Exceptional accuracy was one of the key principles during development, with effective engagement ranges of 1500 meters or more, depending on caliber and ammunition. Advanced engineering and uncompromising quality are evident in every facet of design. The Tactical 2 is a bolt-action rifle featuring Blaser's revolutionary straight-pull action. When the bolt is closed, the 360-degree radial collet expands into the locking groove in the barrel – the bolt head is auto-centering and self-headspacing. The straight pull action features no rotating parts and assures rapid reloading with minimum movement. The rifle can easily be converted for left- or right-hand shooters. The design allows for the exchange of calibers by replacing the barrel and bolt head, in under a minute, without special tools and no change in accuracy. The Tactical 2 is offered in .223 Remington, .308 WIN, .300 WIN MAG and .338 LAPUA.
Barrels are cold hammer-forged, fluted and plasma-nitrided to provide maximum resistance against corrosion and abrasion. An M1913 Picatinny rail is fixed to the barrel, ensuring full compatibility with a wide range of optical sighting systems. The muzzle end is threaded for an optional muzzle brake. The receiver is machined from aircraft-grade billet aluminum alloy and is the interface for the barrel, bolt assembly, trigger assembly and magazine. A recoil lug of hardened steel is integrated into the receiver. The entire unit is fixed to the stock, eliminating temperature-induced distortion.
The outer surface is hard anodized. The ergonomically correct stock is injection molded out of fiber-reinforced polymers and is absolutely stable, even under extreme temperatures.

From AKs to M14s, from AUGs to SCARS, Pat gives practical, real-world advice on tactical rifles from around the world. It's a great go-to book for shooters, collectors and hobbyists in fact, for anyone with an interest in tactical rifles and their uses.

THE BLACK SUN UNVEILED and the Birthday Child of December 21, 23 2012..
The Mural of Bank of America has spawned a lot of Esoteric and Masonic study...It has been compared to the Esoteric Murals of the Denver Airport.
Its always been December 21 or 23
Both dates are used.. My Dell Horoscope mag uses the December 23rd, And here is a explanation from Great dreams .com
The canonical dates (according to Ehran the Scribe) on the ends of the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth worlds are August 12, 3113 BCE (the fall of Atlantis), December 24, 2011 CE (the appearance of Ryumyo), and April 4, 7137 CE. This gives 5123-5125 years per mana cycle [1,871,270 days for the Fifth World's duration, and 1,871,969 for the Sixth World's]. The Mayan Long Count suggests 1.872M days, or 5125.36 years. It also seems that Ehran's dates are a year late (0.0.0.0.0 should be August 11 or 12, 3114 BCE— the astronomical year –3113) and a year early (184.108.40.206.0 corresponds to December 21 or 23, 2012).

The one on the furthest right is called Planning/Knowledge. and features a blonde boy of about five years old standing in front of a Pyramid and atop a red and white checkerboard floor. Businessmen look at him as if puzzled.
Now lets look back to a different year..
Planning was undertaken for many years to await the December 23, 2007 alignment that created a Grand Cross in the Sky... The Sun was to conjunct Jupiter, Mercury , Pluto to create the top of the upright beam, Venus in Scorpio was to create the left hand cross beam reflective of the passions of paganism, and Neptune and Chiron was to create the right hand cross beam reflective of the flood judgment of Yahweh.
The Moon opposeth at the bottom of the Upright beam along with the Moon at the feet of the Woman and Mars which represented the Soldiers spear.
Now we flash forward to five years on December 21, 23, 2012 of the Mayan Calendar Prophecy..
December 21, 23 2012,
"Happy Birthday Fresco Boy ! . The Woman was Impregnated by Saturn.. the Cube of New Jerusalem had begun .
SOL INVICTUS and his Christmas Birthday was the reason for the season..
Lets look at the image of the Black Sun of Saturn and Nigredo.. In December 23, 2007, Saturn was in Virgo, (the woman) and opposed Uranus in Pisces. This was the descent of the Philosopher King when at Noon you had the Aries Ascendant. This created a Square alignment across the sacral chakra of the one impaled.. As mythology attests, Uranus was castrated and so was Osiris.
The Black Sun (invisible) is also alchemical body besides the nigredo of saturn. The Mystery alignment is called.
Black Sun Feast Day...
December 24th, when it conjuncts the visible Sun
Underneath the Black Sun is a cube with a woman ascending under its rays, (beams)
This can be explained in the Rebis Alchemical formula that was pictured in the Black Eyed Peas Video. (Meet me Halfway)
Finalizing the Cube and Pyramid is the Triumphant alignment of the Trine and the Cross resulting in a cube of the alchemical marriage...
BOY (Manchild) AROUND 5 years old...
The Burning Bush of Moses proclaims, I am that I am..under the fire of Aries, the Acendant of the Alpha.
The key phrase for Aries is "I am"

GSA Releases Performance Measurement Guide
January 23, 1997
Contact: Bill Bearden
Internet: email@example.com
The U.S. General Services Administration has released its new performance measurement guide, Performance-Based Management: Eight Steps for Developing and Using Information Technology Measures Effectively. "Based upon the work of several Federal agencies, the guide offers substantive information to assist agencies in developing performance measures that comply with the Clinger-Cohen Act and the Government Performance and Results Act," said program manager Pat Plunkett.
GSA's Office of Governmentwide Policy developed the guide, according to Plunkett, "to serve as a practical resource to help agencies develop effective measures that link IT investments to mission results and reduce the time it takes for agencies to develop meaningful measures."
The guide provides an approach to develop and use performance measures based on research gathered from a variety of sources. Several Federal agencies including the Social Security Administration and the Defense Commissary Agency contributed their experiences gained from various major IT projects. The guide includes the performance measurement plans from these agencies. GSA also incorporated lessons learned from state governments of Texas, Florida, Oregon, and from private industry.
The Eight Steps uses the "balanced scorecard" framework, well-known in industry, to provide a comprehensive view of organizations and their support functions. Plunkett said that the power of this approach is that it translates strategy into action through performance measures. Using the guide, agencies can develop mission and IT performance measures to implement their business strategies.
Laurence Wolfe, acting deputy Associate Administrator for Information Technology in the Office of Governmentwide Policy, describes the guide as "...a much-needed framework for Federal agencies on developing performance measures, particularly as these measures apply to IT projects" Wolfe said that GSA offers further information on performance measurement through its Performance Pathways web site, located at the following URL: http://www.itpolicy.gsa.gov/mkm/pathways/pathways.htm. The guide will be available on this site in early February.
In the meantime you can get printed copies of the Eight Steps by sending your request by fax to (202) 219-0987. Be sure to include both your telephone number and e-mail address and allow two weeks for delivery.

Located in the western foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountain range in central California, Amador County is renowned for producing California's finest Zinfandels, some of them crafted from 19th-century vines. This sustainably farmed old vine vineyard is planted on hillsides with soils of sandy clay loam derived from decomposed granite. Amador's warm days and cool evening breezes from the Sierras promote full ripening of the grapes and a balanced acidity, leading to robust, intensely flavored wines.
It's Zinfandelic
Zinfandel has always been the quintessential California wine. Taking on the characteristics of the regions where it's grown, the flavor of a California Zin is like the flavor of California itself. It's free love in a bottle, with a vibe all its own - at times mellow, others bold or even spicy. But it's always, dare we say, groovy. View all Zinfandelic Wines
About Sierra Foothills
Called gold country since the mid-1800's, the Sierra Foothills, located between Sacramento and the Nevada border, was a hot spot for those seeking a gold rush fortune. Some of these settlers brought some European vines with them and somewhere in that mix was the Zinfandel grape.
Notable FactsZinfandel remains the grape of choice here, followed by Rhone Blends. Volcanic rock & granite-based soils give their wines a robustness that make them unique, and highly sought after, particularly from the two best-known counties, Amador and El Dorado. Zinfandels here are spicy and structures, with brambly fruit and excellent backbone. Once a well-kept secret, wine from the Sierra Foothills is now on the national wine map.
About California
The most famous of the California wine regions is Napa Valley, and these wines are certainly outstanding – but it's not as broad and diverse as its larger neighbor, Sonoma County. Down south, Santa Barbara's Santa Maria Valley is well-known for its Rhône blends, as well as cool-climate varieties like Pinot and Chardonnay. The Central Coast, the largest California AVA, has many different microclimates that lead to a wide range of wines with many sub-AVAs.

BC Women's Soccer Selected Ninth in SAC Preseason PollAugust 20, 2008
Rock Hill, S.C. – The Brevard College women's soccer team were selected ninth in the preseason South Atlantic Conference coaches poll announced today. The Tornados will compete as full NCAA Division II and South Atlantic Conference members in 2008.
Lincoln Memorial University, the defending South Atlantic Conference women's soccer regular season and tournament champions, are the favorites to win the 2008 championship, in a poll of the league's nine head coaches. The Lady Railsplitters received six first-place votes and 74 points.
Lincoln Memorial placed three on the preseason All-Conference team, which was also announced.
Midfielder Becky Thompson and defender Lea Cataggio were named to the first team, while forward Karina Campos was named to the second team.
Catawba College is picked to finish second. The Catawba Indians received one first-place vote and 65 total points.
Catawba placed four on the preseason All-Conference team. Midfielder Lainey Nichols is joined on the first team by defenders Nikki Blackwelder and Alyssa Schoenberg. Another defender, Alexa Baird, was named to the second team.
Carson-Newman is picked to finish third. The Lady Eagles received one first-place vote and 64 total points. Carson-Newman is ranked 22nd in the National Soccer Coaches Association of America preseason poll.
Carson-Newman placed two on the preseason All-Conference first team in forward Nikki Brennen and midfielder Morgan Gruendenfelder. Defender Shea Kinzer was named to the second team.
Tusculum College is picked fourth. The Pioneers also received one first-place vote and garnered 60 total points.
Tusculum advanced to the finals of the NCAA DII Southeast Region tournament last year and are ranked 11th in the NSCAA preseason poll.
Tusculum led the way with five preseason All-Conference selections. All-American midfielder Courtney Turner is joined on the first team by forward Danielle Tanner and defender Nicole Ferris. Midfielder Elisha Robertson and defender Heather Craft were named to the second team.
Mars Hill College is picked to finish fifth. The Lions received 42 points.
Mars Hill has three preseason All-Conference picks. Forward Abby Martin is on the first team, while forward Alicia Blaha and midfielder Caity Murnahan were named to the second team.
Newberry College, under first-year coach Karrie Miller, is picked to finish sixth, picking up 34 points.
Defender Elizabeth Jones is a preseason All-Conference second team selection for Newberry.
Lenoir-Rhyne University is seventh in the preseason poll with 29 points.
The Bears have three on the preseason All-Conference team. Forward Rebecca Lin was named to the preseason All-Conference first team, while forward Lauren Rosch, Lenoir-Rhyne and midfielder Michelle Garcia were selected to the second team.
Wingate University is eighth, receiving 27 points.
The Bulldogs placed four on the preseason All-Conference team. Forward Kerstin Williams and goalkeeper Kathryn Smith were named to the first team, while midfielders Julie Zielinski and Lisa Service were both named to the second team.
Brevard College rounds out the poll receiving 10 total points. The Tornados finished last year with an overall record of 4-15-1 as BC competed as provisional members of both the NCAA and the South Atlantic Conference.
The Tornados return most of their roster, including 10 of 11 starters from a year ago, but have also added much needed depth by way of 13 freshman, by far one of Coach Liz Stojetz' largest recruiting classes in her tenure at Brevard.
The 2008 season opens Friday, Aug. 29 with five matches.
The 2008 Food Lion SAC Women's Soccer Tournament will culminate with the semifinals at the Manchester Meadows soccer stadium in Rock Hill, S.C., Friday, Nov. 7, with the finals on Sunday, Nov. 9.

Go fly a kite. Marketing exec Pierre Lesage finds the practice relaxing after a busy week overseeing operations at eight hotels. It's also perfect for shooting photos.
"Since the drones came out a few years ago, kite aerial photography lost interest for a few photographers that are just looking for photographic results," says Lesage. "I am also looking for results but I need that poetic aspect of doing it with a kite, and as long as there is wind I never have problem with batteries."
Quadcopters are a thrill but flying kites is the zen alternative — and the photographic results are postcard perfect. It's a way to mix tinkering with fresh air and can be as easy as picking up a prefab rig or as complicated as diving into the world of schematics and solder.
