I would not have used the WAN port of the second router but you can google how by the following phrase.
"How to use a router as a WAP?"
I am trying to get devices on 2 different routers connected and networked together. I'll describe the setup...
Internet comes into the home via an ActionTec 2000 Wireless/Broadband router located in basement.
Connected to the ActionTec 2000 are:
TV Set-top Box /PVR - wired connection
Desktop PC running Win 7 - wired connection
Wireless Devices that are brought into the basement ie. Laptops or smartphones etc would be connected to the Actiontec as well.
DLINK xtreme N Wireless Router - Wired Connection from Actiontec is plugged into the Internet plugin on back of DLINK.
To the DLINK I have connected:
XBOX 360 - Wired connection
Laptop Win XP - Wireless Connection
Laptop Win 7 - Wireless
2 Blackberries - Wireless Connection
The IP address for the ActionTec is 192.168.1.254. IPs it gives out to the devices connected to it are 192.168.1.xx.
The IP address of the DLINK is 192.168.0.1 and the range it gives out to devices are 192.168.0.xxx
Is there a way to configure the routers and/or the devices to all exist on the same network?
I have access to both of the routers admin settings, as well can adjust the IP settings of the devices as well.
If more information is needed I can provide, thanks so much for reading and for any help!

People shouldn't try to further analysis stuff like this with the earliest chapters of the manga.....
The author obviously thought up and retconned many things throughout the manga.
Heck, Jiraiya's Sage Mode was introduced during the Pain Arc. It wasn't even hinted before that.
Which I chuckle at the thought. The term Legendary Sages of Three was originally about 3 ninjas who made a reputation of itself to the Kohana village because of skills - not because they can transform into Super Seiyan with overpowering and inhuman jutsus that can hollow mountains and single-handedly destroy a village.
I can't help myself but to say that the Naruto manga has gone sour like many mangas that last this long. Characters are just too damn powerful and the laws of Jutsus are contradicted all the way to characterization.
For Example: Naruto
He was originally a talentless Ninja whos talent is perseverance!! No matter how many people taunts and devalues him he always seeks for acknowledgement and to become better. Throughout the manga he is always portrayed as having a difficulty to learn techniques and most importantly didn't have a BLOODLINE LIMIT!!!
Not anymore! Now he has the Uzamaki bloodline limit for him to sense movements through chakra flow - like visual tracking from the Sharingan. Also, Uzamaki is a clan in which we never heard of.
Now we see Naruto spamming Nine-Tails mode chakra fighting Tobi! He was sweating and bloodied before and magically recovers and was able to activate Tails Mode again even though he was mentioned he couldn't do it anymore a chapter or two ago.
Naruto = Tail-Mode Spammer
Sasuke = Susannoo Spammer
Don't these fools have a limit?

Where i was wrong is that Orochimaru couldn't possibly have senjutsu chakra because he was never a sage, but as it was pointed out Orochi could have trained that to some low level, similarly to Naruto being able to produce something using the special frog oil. Orochimaru obviously has experimented on Juugo's DNA, so he could have also cheated like the use of oil is in Naruto's case, the CS itself is such a "cheating".

Even more fun would be to have a few chapters of agony and tragedy where most of the cast is killed off, and then it turns out it was all an illusion. If it's only an illusion then Kishimoto can really go to the extremes without killing anyone.
BTW Tobi's solution reminded me of the ending of the NGE anime

The problem is not that if its make sense, is that every conflict and plot made about Akatsuki until now was flushed down the toilet, stuff on how they needed 3 days of the complete Akatsuki team to seal one tail beast, how not having Orochimaru made it slower, how Chakra was important to this process; all of this was baasically overlooked and the solution to the problem Kishi had at hand was solved in no more than two pages with little to no effort from Tobis part.

OR... There is a reason why Tobi wanted the complete 10-tails. Him settling for an incomplete one might be his last resort and may actually be a gamble (because maybe the incomplete 10-tails isn't as unstoppable as the complete one is?). Of course, Tobi wouldn't just say "And now I will go with the lesser version which is a bit of a risk" because of course that would tip off his enemies that he definitely CAN be stopped.

1. He wears a mask to hide his identity
2. He has a significant amount of knowledge about and influence
I think the Obito theory is absolutely ridicolous. Aside from a somewhat similar name where is the connection?
Are we really to believe that little snot-nosed Obito with his face crushed by a boulder and left for dead some how grew up to become a major player in the fate of the ninja world? And a villain at that. How would Obito know the history of Konoha, know Madara, gain so much power and manipulate some many powerful ninja?
Realistically if Obito some how survived the incident that presumably killed him at best he would be Kakashi's equal not a Ninja master mind approaching the power of a God.
I've been leaning towards him being Madara's brother but if so why hide his face from the current generation of Ninja?
Tobi's identity is unknown and he doesn't want to make a name for himself.
He is an ideologue obsessed with control who wants to bring about peace by taking away everyone's free will.
I think when everything is cleared up Tobi will probably be a character we can sympathize with.
But I don't think it's Obito. Obito was at peace with himself when he was dying.
Besides Obito was a major inspiration for Kakashi. Tobi has impacted so many lives and Naruto is the hero of this story so I think whoever Tobi is he is much more connected to the major events in the Ninja world than Obito who was just Kakashi's teammate when he was a child.

I dont see Obito doing all this too.
He could been saved, and learned all of the things tobi knew. However, whats the motivation?
Revenge on kakashi? Rin? Minto? the village? He made peace with himself, and have kakashi his eye to help him, or to live with Kakashi to help him see the world.
at this point, I think Tobi is more of a different character..like How vader was different then Anakin.

Obito actually died with a fair amount of regret...ch 244 pg 2
He even openly expressed a desire to change the shinobi world...ch 241 pg 4 (maybe that changed when kakashi showed up to help, I dunno)
I don't know what kishi will do, but obito (or his body)is a legitimate contender...I'm not waiting for the mask to come off. It came off during the konan fight...I'm not sure what everybody else was looking at. ....

the obito theory isn't just about obito. it also involves madara's chakra which accounts for the knowledge and ability tobi possesses.
1) writing: the names tobi and obito are very similar. the timeliness of kakashi gaiden and tobi's introduction
2) body: placement of eyes, heavy damage to body, use of zetsu body which could account for how obito's body was preserved, similar vortex MS techniques as Kakashi who has obito's other eye
3) knowledge: knows kakashi and gai's personalities as if he was from their generation. knows all about kakashi's kamui technique and said it was useless against him. knows a lot of things madara would have known
4) personality: tobi has shown 2 distinct personalities and voices. the playful one resembles obito not taking things seriously. the serious one is akin to madara
5) theme: if tobi is in part obito then it fits the running theme of student/student relationships and student/teacher relationships and fights. he 'killed' his teacher minato and is now facing off against his comrade kakashi. that echoes orochi vs sarutobi, pain vs jiraiya, sasuke vs naruto, etc...
6) tobi never tried to take kakashi's sharingan. why? also it is just too fitting to have kakashi involved in this fight in which he doesn't belong otherwise
edit: also, let me just point out that gai has met tobi's true identity/face. that eliminates almost every other theory

So i think the question should be how could Obito's character fit into the story and what purpose would it serve to make him Tobi. Also how can it fit in the story so far. For example Tobi encountered both Kakashi and Minato, but there was never any hint that he could be Obito. If he were Obito why would he fight and try to kill his former sensei without even saying half a sentence about their past.
Why would Kishimoto ruin Obito's sacrifice by making him a final villain?
Why would a character that is connected only to Kakashi be the final villain in a story that's about Naruto?
I'm still sticking with my earlier post, until someone can come up with a really good reason.

But with that said, there is one sharp thorn in the side of the Tobito theory. The ninetails attack. As we saw, Tobi attacked kohona with the ninetails 15 years ago. This would have been After otito's "death" but it would have been too soon for him to have acquired Madara's powers (plus he would have been to young and short to fit the role)... So the only way for Obito to be tobi would be is that tobi that attacked back then was a different tobi, or if Tobi is some kind of entity that's been pulling some kind of body switching-trick like orochimaru to keep himself alive and young and thus saved obito so that he could use him as his latest host... either that, or maybe the sharingan has time travel powers now... Which by that point we are getting quite ridiculous, and now things are feeling rather convoluted

Obito was supposed to have been dead. He died in Kakashi Gaiden Mini arc. He was smashed under so many rocks. So it was understandable that many argued against the theory. I was personally in the Tobi is obitio bandwagon mainly because Naruto is an anime/manga and it is not rare for people have been shown to be dead to some how revive later. Also there were many/some subtle hints that he was Obito through out the series. One of the which was when i talked about how i felt ( in manga chapter 502 discussion ) How Tobi was acting very familiar with Yondaime.
But yet again, It is not 100 percent confirmed yet. He could still be some one else. I am personally leaning toward him being Obito but from this chapter i don't think Tobi being Rin is too far fetched either. It could be any one really .
P.S. I keep trying to stop reading the Manga and just follow the anime but the urges to know what happens always gets the better of me. Maybe from the next chapter i will stop reading the manga *_*.

The main problem of this theory beside, as James put it, the sheer boringness of it all was that it made no sense for many reasons including a complete lack of motive, a huge difference in power, a completely different personality, a inexplicably vast amount of knowledge and many chronological inconsistencies like the fact that Tobi has been around since before Obito was even born.
But then it's a shounen world and the impossible is only marginally less likely than the normal.

Mushkin Interview and Tour 2011
Mushkin has been around since 1994 and has continued to grow over the years and is now one of the most respected memory companies in the business today. Over the last few years, Mushkin has moved into other markets to expand their company and they seem to be doing well. In 2007 Nick Ryan, one of our former reviewers did an interview with Brian Flood, who at the time was the Product Development Manager. So here we are almost four years later to see how far they have come.
Pulling into the parking lot I noticed Mushkin was located in a nice office complex in a suburb of Denver.
Walking into the office you are greeted to a big Mushkin sign on the wall, while turning to my right I see a custom Mushkin theme computer, with the Memory Robot beside it. The President of Mushkin's daughter made it - a very good job and it looks pretty cool in person. There are a lot of booths in the main area for everyone to have their own area to work. Along the back wall you can see there are offices there as well.
Here are some pictures of Mushkin's board room and the stuff in it.
So I wasn't sure what to expect and how much I was allowed to shoot photos for, but I must say they let me do what I want and wondered where I wanted. I can tell you it was so hard not to touch anything ... I was really struggling not to drool over anything. I now bring you the compound and all of the stuff they have on their shelves waiting to move. Note: Sorry to the OCC forum members, I tried to get a couple of cases of memory for you guys. But I would have had a hard time getting past the 2 guard dogs, and the snipers on the roof. :)
Here is the new memory waiting to be programmed.

I just recently purchased a RB series D 3x4 camera from an estate sale in great condition. However, because of the age of this camera I still would like to get the thing serviced and cleaned to make sure everything is working the way it should. Could anyone recommend a place that specializes in these types of cameras?
I'm also wondering about having the back switched over to accept a polaroid back and roll film magazines. Has anyone out there done this? Is there a place out there that does this type of conversion?
Any suggestions would help me out.

Dukkha, if your Graflex RB Series D 3.25 x 4.25 is like mine, it will already accept a Graflex (not Graphic) 120 roll back the way it is. These come up on eBay fairly often. They come in a 6 x 6 mm version which gives 12 exposures per roll and a 6 x 9 mm version which gives 8 exposures per roll. Do you know that your camera, if in original condition, will accept Graflex (not Graphic)sheet film holders. Film for these holders is available from at least two sources. Some, including me, like to use this camera with original accessories. Just another choice.

If your back is the original, it will also accept the 12 shot bag mag. These show up regularly (with patience) on eBay. Most require a new bag but that's not a major problem.

Thanks for the replies. I think this camera does have the original back. On the left side there is a slide mechinism that holds a the back in place. Is this what is considered the Graflex style back? This camera came with a pack film magazine which does me no good since that type of film is not available anymore. I did just recently purchace a bag style magazine from ebay but didn't know it would accept roll film magazines. Are these style magazines specific to the RB 3x4 or will any graflex 3x4 roll film back work?
Finally, the reason I was considering converting this camera to accept 4x5 backs was to enable me to use a poloroid back. Any recommendations on using a poloroid back without converting the camera?

It does sound like a "Graflex" back, rotated so it's vertical (in its horizontal position, the slide that retains the filmholders will be on top).
I never heard of a Polaroid back for 3¼x4¼ reflex (or press) cameras. Polaroid's "405" back takes 3¼x4¼ filmpacks, so it would be appropriate if it could be made to fit. It consists of a flat box holding the filmpack, and an oversized base carrying the darkslide, sized for 4x5.
I looked into modifying one to fit my 3¼x4¼ "Anniversary Speed," but the box is too wide. I'm told that the "Graflex" filmholders were wider than their "Graphic" counterparts. If the space between the rails (or if the base width of the film pack adapter you have) is 4¼ inches and a smidgen, the thing might be done.
The flat box of the Polaroid FPA is held in place by four small bolts. The first thing to investigate would be whether the existing FPA could be dismantled and the box from the Polaroid FPA mounted in its place. The question that then would need study is, would the resulting lashup position the Polaroid film in the correct plane?

i'm currently trying to convert a 3x4 graflex holder to accept pack film. i'm using a holder and the insides of a pack film back. I know I can do it just need the time. I'm also converting a super d and making a polaroid 110a camera to accept 3x4 film. I bought a 3x4 graflok back a while back but probably won't find any use for it while trying to match it up with th conversion that i'm doing for the graflex/polaroid back.

Regarding your question about roll film backs...I believe there are GRAFLEX roll film holders that will fit your Graflex back....and GRAPHIC roll film holders that will not. Fred.

Fred is correct and the GRAFLEX roll holders are a lot harder to find. Don't buy the model 1915 (I think) holder, as there is no film available in that size. Make sure the holder takes 120 film.

Thanks for the replies,
I'm still not sure what model # of graflex style roll film backs this camera will take. I see various backs ******* on e-bay and would like to pick up one that works with this camera. However, I am more interested in finding out if anyone has coverted some style of poloroid back to fit this model.

==they are on the east coast and they can convert your graflex to accept a modern 4x5 polaroid back. I had them convert mine several years ago and it works great. Takes about 6-8 weeks and It's about $300-400. In addition to be able to use Poloroid P/N Type 55 (that has a neg in it) you can also get a special Fuji polaroid style back that takes 4x5 sheet film that is packed in individual sleeves.(no need to load backs for sheet film)

Thanks for the reply. Yeah it seams that all fingers are pointing in that direction. I was just hoping to convert a polaroid back instead of converting the camera itself.I have several 3x4 bag mags for this camera and know of a few places that sell film this size or I could cut it down myself. Due to the age of the camera, I wanted a polaroid back to verify that the curtain is working properly, especially in the field. Kind of a safety net. I've been messing around with an old poloroid land camera and with some tinkering I think it might fit. If not I'll convert the camera.
Thanks for the suggesting S.K. Grimes. Where would we be without these guys. Currently, I am having them do a conversion on a lens for my Linhof. What a great resource!!! Also, there is a guy who posts here alot ( Bert Saunders) who specializes in Graflex repairs and conversions. If you ever need something for you camera you may want to email him if you haven't already done so.
By the way, I really enjoyed your images. It's nice to see commercial work that doesn't resemble your typical commercial image. Finally, and this may be a stretch, but have you ever lived in Nashville? It's just that your name sounds familiar and years back I worked with an assistant from there with the same name.
thanks again

I am in a very similar boat. I just got a baby Graflex 3X4 this week, my first large format SLR. I am facing a very similar set of questions what film to begin using in my new camera. Its basically, 4 X 5 or rollfilm backs. I definitely do not want to fiddle with the unpopular in the US European 9X12cm (3 ¼ X 4 ¼) format, even though my camera came with a film magazine for [six?] of those-sized [septums?], in perfect shape. Unfortunately, I am new to large format and do not know much about using Polaroid backs. I understand that using the type 55 film allows one to essentially get away without using the wet darkroom ( I dont have one at the moment) and to jump from a large negative directly to scanning it. But I am totally confused about future availability of the type 55 film, and dont know anything about various Polaroid film formats.
My strong impression though is that fitting the bigger and more standard 4X5 graflok-style back on your and my little cameras makes a lot of sense. I just measured the shutter window opening at the back of the camera and it is almost 4 X 4. This spells the size of the negatives you will be getting should you want to use 4 X 5 film. I personally like that a lot. I understand that among the 4X5 photographers its almost the norm to print the entire 4X5neg with the characteristic border. I am not attached to this and having an unusual square format large format camera appeals to me a lot.
Now I myself am capable of designing and fabricating, even from scratch, a 4X5 back with the dimensions largely reduced on the outside, so that to build the back that would not protrude in an ugly fashion beyond the outside dimensions of the smaller 3X4 baby body. This conversion may also require shimming and lifting the cameras ground glass just a bit. Personally, I want to go far beyond this level of retrofit and to give my 3X4 Graflex much faster lenses and full lens movements, like on a true studio monorail.
All of what I am saying would bring a lot more resonance and thought exchange with the crowd here if I had something to show. Next year starting January, I plan to do some type of conversion of the kind I am trying to bring across here and also in my PRISM ON GRAFLEX SLR ? post.
Regarding the suggested S.K. Grimes shop with their long lead time I was aware of the shop too, carefully studied their capabilities, and indeed plan to visit them soon, as they seem to encourage what they call thought cross-pollination. My initial impression though is that the equipment I am fortunate to have access to (and, of course, knowledge how to use it and skills) are allowing me to design and implement SINAR level of refinement to my photo gear. But, I want to do photography and not to keep redesigning my gear, because this brings one nowhere. So my first impression of my baby graflex that immediately threw me in envisioning a totally rebuilt camera with stainless steel foil shutter curtain, instrument ball bearings instead of primitive Graflex pivots, first surface coated mirror and blah, blah, blah all perfectly feasible was killed on the spot. Its probably something I would enjoy a lot doing, but I as a photographer I would accomplish nothing.
Which brings me to the last part of my exclamation. Not having too much spare time to all my projects myself, I had a few discussions with a close friend of mine, who recently completed equipping his own home machine shop. He is a very talented tool maker and the equipment he got includes computer controlled mill, a surface grinder, an instrument grade lathe and other machinery. This fellow is actively looking for a product or service to market on his own. Knowing for years about my expertise in camera gear building, he offered me partnership. So him and me are in the very beginning of thinking of what to begin designing and marketing. The enterprise is in its conception state today. My personal endeavor with my baby Graflex may be the thing we will start from together, instead of me completing the project on my own, as I usually do.
I dont want this post to read as marketing pitch for mine and my friends service, that doesnt yet exist. What I am posting here is trying to address those who are interested in getting the non-stock functionality out of their Graflex SLRs. Should I find myself being not alone in that territory, it may be mutually benefiting to share ideas.
Thank you all.

Memphis Mayor A C Wharton Jr. presents his budget proposal Tuesday, April 16, to the Memphis City Council for the fiscal year that begins July 1.
And council members will probably be listening closely for one dollar amount in particular and how Wharton proposes to deal with it.
The city starts the budget season with an estimated $25 million hole.
Of that total, $15 million is the amount of property tax revenue the city loses as a result of the 2013 property reappraisal from what it gets from the current city property tax rate.
And for the new fiscal year, the city has $10 million more in debt service as a result of a debt restructuring from several fiscal years ago.
The council meets at 3:30 p.m. at City Hall, 125 N. Main St.
Wharton's presentation begins the budget season at City Hall. With a property reappraisal that for the first time in anyone's memory means a drop in revenue from the existing property tax rate part of the political discussion will be the recertification of the existing city tax rate.
The city will ultimately submit a new property tax rate to the state for certification that produces the same amount of revenue the existing rate of $3.11 produces. In other reappraisal years, that rate has either stayed the same or gone down.
If the rate goes up to produce the $15 million lost in the reappraisal, the political question for those who favor that is whether they want to stick with an explanation that technically it is not a tax hike.
Shelby County government leaders are having the same discussion as they deal with a loss of revenue from the same reappraisal.
Commissioner Terry Roland asked Mayor Mark Luttrell if making up the lost revenue on the tax rate is a tax hike. And Luttrell answered carefully.
"People make compelling arguments on both sides of it," Luttrell told Roland. "You will not pay any more in taxes. If we raise the tax rate … it is indeed an increase in the tax rate."
But unlike Luttrell and county leaders, Wharton and the council will no longer be funding public education. The city's obligation has been to the tune of $68 million and that obligation ends in the new fiscal year with the schools consolidation.
The use of that revenue proposed by Wharton as well as the council will also be watched closely as the budget season progresses.
Some on the council had also talked of another rollback of the city's property tax rate with a half percent citywide sales tax hike.
But consideration of the referendum ordinance that would put the tax hike to city voters has been delayed until after the start of the new fiscal year on July 1. The referendum, if approved by the council, would be in the late summer or fall.
The sales tax hike would generate an estimated $47 million in revenue for the city. And $20 million of that would be used to roll back the city property tax rate 20 cents under terms of a resolution that accompanies the referendum ordinance. The other $27 million would be used for a city-run or contracted expansion of pre-kindergarten in the city.
"Mechanically, it's absolutely still doable," council member Shea Flinn said last month of the possible tax roll back. "Politically, it's a much closer call and a much higher hurdle."
Also on the council's agenda Tuesday is a planned development on the northwest corner of Greenlaw Avenue and North Fifth Street in Uptown for the Memphis College Preparatory Elementary School. The charter school at Greenlaw and North Sixth Street would expand with parking at the new lot and could possibly expand its building with the planned development.
The council is also scheduled to discuss a resolution that would provide severance benefits for employees of the city's Motor Vehicle Inspection Bureau. The council voted last year to end funding of the bureau after June 30, the end of the current fiscal year.
That would mean either Shelby County government would take over the responsibilities for auto inspection or the state of Tennessee would. State officials have said the earliest they might be able to do that is in two years and that they hope the city and county can work out something in the interim.
County leaders have shown no interest in taking on vehicle inspections or paying the city to continue to do it.

Irish tourism and The Gathering have received a massive boost from the readers of USA Today.
America's national newspaper has voted Ireland as a dream holiday destination in a new poll.
The Emerald Isle features alongside Italy as Ireland throws its doors open to the Diaspora for The Homecoming.
USA Today has declared Ireland one of five 'buzz-worthy destinations' in 2013 in the survey.
The Irish Independent reports that Americans found it rivals Italy on their holiday wish-list.
The Gathering marketing campaign promoting thousands of local events in Ireland this year is clearly making an impact.
The paper cites The Gathering as a reason for millions of people with Irish ancestry to consider a return to the 'Auld Sod'.
Read more: Ireland's top ten free tourist attractions - PHOTOS
Ireland is up there with Burma, Florida, Gettysburg and Hawaii as one of the most happening destinations in 2013 according to the report.
The Irish Independent says that the 'USA Today'/Gallup poll of 1,038 US adults found that while there's no place like home for 94pc of Americans planning a holiday this year, one-third of them are also planning a trip abroad during 2013.
The USA Today article said: "When asked where they'd visit if money was no object, nearly one-third of those polled mentioned Europe with Italy and Ireland leading the pack.
"While Ireland has seen its share of doom and gloom in the last few years, The Gathering did offer a year-long celebration of all things gaelic.
"So what better way to banish the Emerald Isle's economic blues than by inviting the estimated 70 million who claim Irish ancestry to return to the Auld Sod for a bit of frivolity?"
Burma, Florida and Hawaii are also on the list as the dream destination of most Americans.
Failte Ireland is set to outline its projections for tourism in 2013 on Thursday after a disappointing year in 2012 when the number of British visitors fell.
Tourism chiefs will focus on The Gathering as a means of attracting extra visitors.

Rum Cocktail: Afternoon Delight
Posted by Arctic Wolf on January 7, 2010
The origins of this cocktail are rather simple. I was finishing my review for Ron Barcelo Imperial Rum, and I was struggling with a concept for a suitable cocktail. The Barcelo rum has a very complex flavour profile, but it also seemed to taste different every time I tried it. It would be rough and bitter one day, complex and bittersweet the next. I decided the rum easily picked up cues from my own palate and mood. So I decided to do a complex `mood´ cocktail. I chose pineapple and lime juice as the base so that the rum would take its cues from those relatively powerful juice flavours. I then added a touch of Cointreau for style (and a little sweet orange flavour), and finally a sloe gin float to sink in and tie everything together. The mood I was setting was of whimsical relaxation. Indeed this drink is particularly good when I am overworked, and I just want to unwind, relax and have a good time. The first version of the cocktail I called the Dominican Afternoon Delight or DAD`s cocktail as it became known as in my kitchen. And when a Dominican Rum such as Barcello is used then that name is entirely appropriate. But the more general name Afternoon Delight is more fitting when you use other dark complex rums. And, by the way, I do consider this a cocktail made especially for a dark rum that has spent some time in an oak barrel.
I liked the cocktail so much that I sent a copy to forrest, to see what he thought. His reaction was entirely positive saying and I quote "MAKE ME ONE AND YOU BETTER MAKE IT 2". Thus the idea of forrest approved cocktails was born.
This all leads to a link to the actual cocktail recipe, the original "forrest Approved Cocktail":
The Afternoon Delight
Please enjoy in a responsible manner, remember the aim is not to drink more, it is to drink better!
Note: This cocktail started a bit of a collaboration between forrest and myself. I write a review, I run some cocktail ideas by him, he tells me when they are good; he tells me when they are bad; or he tweaks them if that's all they need. Sometimes we share the results with each of us placing the cocktails on our site at the same time as well as our own reviews of the particular spirit which led to the colloaboration. And I should point out, I am getting by far the best end of this deal.

A 51-year-old woman has been charged with killing her 82-year-old mother in the home they shared in Chicago's South Shore neighborhood, officials said.
Janette Glenn is charged with first degree murder in the death of her mother Catherine Glenn, said Tandra Simonton, a spokeswoman for the Cook County State's Attorney's office.
Janette Glenn is expected to appear in bond court on Tuesday, Simonton said.
Glenn along with her mother lived in the same home on the 7800 block of South Euclid Avenue. Catherine Glenn celebrated her 82nd birthday on Saturday and her body was found in a closet at the home on Mother's Day, officials said.
An autopsy determined that Catherine Glenn died of multiple blunt force injuries from an assault and ruled her death a homicide, according to the Cook County medical examiner's office.
Catherine Glenn was last seen at her home by other family members who had visited the woman to celebrate her birthday, according to other family members. Family members were to return to Glenn's home on Sunday to celebrate Mother's Day but police discovered her body in the home.
Police found Glenn in her home, a two-story building about 7:40 a.m. Sunday. Glenn lived on the first floor, relatives said.
Janette Glenn was an early suspect in what police said was a domestic-related homicide. She was arrested while walking at Rainbow Beach Park, police said. Glenn was found in a closet with signs of trauma including cuts, officials said.
On Sunday morning, family members stood on the front steps of the brown brick building after police officers cordoned off the backyard with yellow tape.
Forensic officers wearing gloves walked in and out of the home with brown paper bags.
Other family stood beside other relatives near a black iron fence in her mother's front yard as the woman was described as a family matriarch and as a "sweet Christian lady who would give her last for anyone in need."
Originally from Starkville, Miss., Glenn came to Chicago in her mid-20s with her sister, Dorothy Shields, to start a new life. Her sister lives on the second floor of the South Shore building.
While in Chicago, she met her husband, Quinton Glenn Sr., through their relatives and the couple later married, her daughter said.
Glenn, a homemaker, raised seven children — four girls and three boys — while her husband worked as an associate pastor at LeClaire Missionary Baptist Church on Chicago's Southwest Side. He died in 2002.
A breast cancer survivor, Glenn became too ill to go to church in recent years but faithfully watched the Rev. James T. Meeks on TV on Sunday at noon, according to family.
Glenn's zest for life came from spending time at home around her family members,

"Education should be a right, not a privilege," Shai Reshef, founder and president of the online University of the People.
After spending decades building successful educational programs in Israel and online, Israeli entrepreneur Shai Reshef decided it was time to give back. This January, the 55-year-old launched his revolutionary idea: a free international university, University of the People, allowing anyone, anywhere to earn a college education.
"Education, just like democracy, should be a right, not a privilege," says Reshef, founder and president of the University of the People (UoP). "With a few keystrokes, UoP takes the concept of social networking and applies it to academia, providing a global chalkboard for all students."
With two degrees on its curriculum already – business administration and computer science – it's a little early to see where the future is headed, Reshef tells ISRAEL21c. Already featured in major newspapers such as New York Times,he doesn't believe that it will take much effort spreading the good word, given the power of social networking on the Internet. And dozens of professionals from academia, administration and the field of computer programming, have come on to support the cause.
Operating as a non-profit organization, Reshef will not, now or in the future, collect a salary, he says: "I've done enough – now it's my turn to give back," he says. Primarily volunteer run, and taught, he will expect those enrolled to pay basic costs – $15 to enrol, and about $15 per exam.
Meanwhile, about 300 students from University of the People are about to start class this fall, in a trial run to see how it works, Reshef says. Every semester thereafter he expects the enrollment to multiply by 30 percent.
Blackboards without borders
The project is a democratic one as well. Even though the Internet does make the world in some ways, a global village, there is still a major disparity between the West, and the less developed countries. While the University of the People may not be as hard to get into as Ivy League colleges, Reshef does expect graduating standards to be the same. It will finally allow those without means, an equal opportunity to study, wherever they are.
Reshef is currently based in Tel Aviv, Israel, but the school is applying for US accreditation, and will operate out of Pasadena, California.
All that's required for admission to UoP is proficiency in English, a graduation certificate from a secondary school and an Internet connection, though come exam time, students will be required to show up at a physical location.
Universities around the world have been adding more and more distance programs to their curriculum. And through the Open Courseware Consortium, started in 2001 by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, universities can post teaching material from courses on quantum theory all the way through to training in agriculture. Free for the taking, some universities are also presenting teaching material on popular media sites such as iTunes.
Using active and retired professors, in some cases the teachers will collect a small stipend for their work at UoP; in others, they will teach as volunteers.
Investing $1 million of his own money, Reshef hopes to have 10,000 students enrolled at UoP within the next five years. The modest amount of money they are expected to contribute will go towards startup costs, and to keep the university sustainable, says Reshef.
Harnessing a growing trend
Reshef started building his fortune in the education business back in 1989, as the chairman of Kidum Group. The Israeli test-preparation company was then sold to Kaplan, one of the world's largest education companies in 2005. He also built an online university affiliated with the University of Liverpool, which was later sold to Laureate, a large, for-profit company.
In the US alone, online learning is a growing trend with about four million students enrolled in a program somewhere. It's not the first time academics gave thought of such an idea, but it's the first time someone's put the idea into action.
Why now? "When I started the online university in the Netherlands," says Reshef, "I realized how strong the Internet is and how far it can go. It lets people all over the world study for an academic degree. For many of them it was impossible before.
"The University of the People represents a huge leap in the democratization of education by reaching those who until now viewed college as a pipedream," Reshef says. "Education is a proven mechanism for upward mobility. Our goal is to positively impact the life chances of as many people as possible."
From America, Africa, Asia, Europe or the Middle East, UoP may never have a football team, cheerleaders, or crazy Frosh parties. Despite that, it's open to jocks, geeks, Muslims, Jews, Christians, non-believers and anyone who has only been able to dream about studying at university and earning a degree.
Concludes Reshef: "Every single person on earth is more than welcome."

I've got a slight problem that I was wondering if you'd have any input for. I'm a very slow leveler (that's quite the understatement) so my paladin is still level 73 and my shaman 71, this long after the expansion was released. My paladin's gear was a mix of heroic rares and epics, Kara/Gruul/Mags and SSC/TK epics, with the main goal of staying at the old hit cap. Since I started leveling again I've had trouble deciding what gear is better. I have Rating Buster installed so that helps somewhat, but it's still a bit hard to decide when it's between something with more penetration and expertise and something with hit rating and crit rating (with nearly equal amounts of stam and str). It was a lot easier to decide what was best when I was at max level and there was a hierarchy of importance with respect to all the stats, but there is no resource that I know of for gear selection when it comes to leveling. I was wondering how you go about deciding what gear is better and worse while you're leveling?
In general, you use the same hierarchy that the max level people use. For Ret paladins it's Str, Hit, Crit, etc. The only difference is that you don't want really large amounts of Hit Rating because you're usually fighting stuff around your level.
To be honest though, it doesn't really matter. I actually go by armor value when I level. If it is damage plate gear and has more armor than my current gear, I upgrade. It's a very simple rule of thumb that works out quite well.
You really only need to be concerned about gear once you approach 80. Otherwise, just concentrate on levelling and questing, and you'll find that the upgrades will come. My gear was roughly the same as yours, and I started seeing a few upgrades around level 74-75, if I remember correctly.
Thanks for the input. I was just wondering how to pick the gear that I keep and the gear that I vendor. I go by a similar hierarchy, and in fact sometimes end up using what ever item has the higher armor value like you said. But the confusion on my part is all the new stats that are on gear now.
When I hit 70 during BC, the stats that we got from entry level gear were always strength, crit or agility, and hit rating. As BC went on, Blizzard started adding in new stats such as armor penetration, haste and expertise, and since I never really raided Black Temple or Sunwell I never looked too deeply into those stats.
But in Wrath, there are green quest rewards with these new goodies and I'm unsure about whether they really are goodies or not. Ex: how much haste does an item needs to have in order for me to decide that its better than another item that has crit instead of haste (assuming equal amounts of strength). I'm not very concerned about gear while I level, but I just don't want to regret vendoring a quest reward that might be vastly superior to what I have.
You don't really have to worry about this. In my experience in Wrath, an item's "budget" is divided evenly among its stats. So if it has more haste than crit, it will also have more strength, making the choice a lot more obvious.
The only items that don't follow this are trinkets, as they usually offer a lot of a single stat. But usually these are fairly obvious upgrades, or the numbers are very close so you just choose the better stat.
To be honest, gear doesn't really matter all that much. As long as you are in the right ballpark, and using the proper ability rotations, it will be good enough for starting out. Try and enchant your gear (with the relatively cheap enchants) when you get to 80, even if it's just blues. That will help a lot as well.
Also, I was wondering how you would go about re-gearing from ret to prot once I hit 80, should I group as ret and try and get tank drops, or should I respec and try and get gear to get me started via the AH, quest rewards and crafted items?
Generally quests will only offer 1 plate reward. If there's a tanking plate reward, there's not likely to be a DPS plate reward. So you can collect gear for all three sets at the same time. Then you can supplement those with crafted items and reputation items, and that will be more than enough to get started with whatever spec you desire.
I don't think it will be worth it to try and get Prot gear while Ret specced. It will take a lot longer, and you should be able to put together a decent Prot set by the time you hit 80.
The best advice I can give you is not to worry about gear. Enjoy levelling and questing and do the normal 5-man dungeons. As you do stuff, gear will come.

POWERBOOK 2012: Community servantDick Charles brings more than financial help to his many municipal and nonprofit projects
In the 1990s, Dick Charles stood for Annville Township commissioner.
The downtown project was being planned and, he says, "It appeared to me that leadership or support was needed at the commissioner level."
Thirteen years later, he's still enthusiastically shepherding the latest part of the project.
That willingness to step up to big responsibilities is a hallmark of Charles' career, which he describes as bifurcated — part fundraising in higher education and part government.
These days, he's seeing the two worlds converge. But his role hasn't changed: bringing people together and getting things done.
"Whatever the community in which he finds himself, he instinctively seeks to do good for others," says William McGill, a former senior vice president at Lebanon Valley College. McGill says that happened at LVC, in Annville, with the American Cancer Society — Charles served as a national director — and even on vacation.
"For some years now, he has spent part of the summer in Bay View, Michigan," McGill says.
Charles has helped that community with its development efforts – and still not lost touch with Annville, completing much paperwork necessary to advance its projects while on vacation hundreds of miles away.
"He's got vision," says Rex Moore, who has spent years with Charles on both the Annville Township Board of Commissioners and the economic development authority. Charles is straightforward, pleasant to work with and what is "tough to find in government today: Sensible."
Charles entered municipal service only after he had long realized a youthful ambition of being back at college.
It took a bit — he served briefly in the Army and then spent some time in private industry — but he ended up back at his alma mater, Franklin & Marshall College, serving in senior development and alumni capacities. From there he went on to be a vice president of Wilkes University, then on to LVC in Annville.
All told, campaigns Charles personally directed have raised more than $75 million.
"People giving the money is the public effect — but doing the homework, making the contacts, getting the person involved in the organization are things that a lot of people don't see," Charles says. "Done the absolutely perfect way, a donor will come to you and say, 'I've been working with you on this – how can I help?'"
Charles says the college's moral and financial support has been key to the progress of Annville's projects. The college, in the person of Steve MacDonald, president emeritus, returns the praise.
"While he was assisted by a number of other people who figured prominently in these (Annville) endeavors, Dick possesses conspicuous strengths that made the fate of these projects ultimately dependent upon his participation," MacDonald says.
Even when many participants believed state assistance on a certain project wouldn't materialize, MacDonald says, Charles plugged away at it, satisfying program requirements and talking to bureaucrats – and securing the funds.
It's not just that Charles is indefatigable, MacDonald says: A range of gifts, from being conceptually imaginative to planning meticulously to creating alliances, feeds his success.
Charles is still working in development: Municipal duties take about half his days, and the rest he spends running The Franklin Consulting Group with Ellen Arnold and Tom Stone, offering strategic services for charitable organizations. A recent success was a four-year, $6.5 million campaign for Bosler Library in Carlisle.
Charles says he's increasingly seeing chances to mesh the efforts of community organizations with government. One example is a former bakery the township owns.
"It's the worst building in Annville," he says.
It was supposed to become a centerpiece of downtown development, but with the economy down, the needed investment didn't materialize.
Now, he says, "We're looking to have some kind of a community activity that we might be able to have a community campaign and have the investment money to pull that off" — something on the order of a community center, public educational facility or library.
Thanks to comprehensive planning, Charles also expects to see intermunicipal cooperation become a bigger component of government. It's not the documents, he says, as much as the planning process that builds the foundation for working more closely in the future.
Does he enjoy planning big projects? Charles says a better way to describe it would be to say it's satisfying: It's necessary, and so he does it.

Jeff Defran bashing RR and Victors Rally on WTKA
Jeff Defran bashing RR and Victors Rally on WTKA
Did anyone else hear Jeff Defran's tired spiel bashing Rich Rod, The Victors Rally etc last night on WTKA?
His uninformed rant about Rogriguez and the Victors Rally last night was the same old tired story. It made me think of the Animal House - Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life Jeff. It's not that he is stupid but also lazy. If he had done any research on the hand that was dealt Rich Rod - which people like Brian Cook and other Mgobloggers has provided many times, he would be more credible but to avoid all facts and start his old lame bashing is just plain stupid.
Brian mentioned a new full time afternoon host so I assume it was Jeff getting his digs in before he's gone. I don't mind if there are differing opinions but I expect Ann Arbor radio hosts to be intelligent and informed - not just unprepared hacks (aka Mike Valenti and Drew Sharp).

Contact: Jerry Horn, 540-785-4733
Priests for Life, one of the nation's largest anti-abortion groups, has announced "National Christian Voter Registration Sundays" for 2004. The effort to register voters at Catholic parishes nationwide is just part of the organization's overall strategy for this election year.
The dates for Voter Registration Sundays are January 18, March 7, May 2, July 4, and September 5. The exact process is described at www.priestsforlife.org/vote. Other Christian organizations are joining in the effort as well, and Priests for Life is urging that drives be conducted on a statewide and diocesan level, as was recently done in a few states.
Priests for Life, with a multi-million dollar budget and a staff of 40 full-time people, has made the 2004 Elections its primary focus this year. "All our activities are totally non-partisan," explains National Director Fr. Frank Pavone. "But non-partisan doesn't mean timid or half-hearted. We are working aggressively to impart a simple, three-fold message based on the teachings of the US Bishops in their 1995 document Living the Gospel of Life. Our message is
a) Believers have a duty to get out and vote.
b) The most important issue on which to evaluate a candidate is his or her position on abortion, because if a politician cannot respect the life of a little baby, how is he supposed to respect yours?
c) Public servants who take a "pro-choice" position contradict Catholic teaching, the Gospel of Christ, and the founding principles of the United States of America."
During the year, Priests for Life will utilize mass media and extensive travels to all fifty states to disseminate its message. "It's not our job to tell people how to vote; it is our job, however, to give them moral guidance in exercising their civic responsibilities, and we intend to carry out that job with clarity and vigor," Fr. Pavone concluded.

WTF? Designs We're Not Sure We Could Live With
We're usually ridiculously supportive of designers bringing new, fun and functional ideas into the world and can imagine our spaces filled with things that aren't exactly traditional. That said, there's still some designs that stop us dead in our tracks — vote for your choice of the biggest flop after the jump.
• The Rocking Hot Dog: This giant purple sausage by Jaime Hayon and Nienke Klunder will be hitting London next month and although we can see this working in a large, open modernist space, we can't help but think the first thing your guests would say is, "Holy Giant Purple Sausage!" We're pretty sure of it, because it's the first thing we said!
• Hygienic Sanitary Pad Layers Table: Wow. Just wow. We know this is a piece that's meant to be taken with a large side of humor, but we're speechless. This shelf by Andy Kurovets is our least favorite of all the items listed here. Not just because of what it is, but because it's so heavily graphic, displaying or storing anything on it would be a double eyesore. Although you could tell guests the bathroom was down the hall and left at the heavy flow, what... you can't say that on a design blog?!
• Streetside Urinal: To help keep the streets clean in Belgium, this new design has been suggested to make peeing in public ok, or at least a cleaner process. Having a, "If you can't beat them join them" vibe, we personally think it seems a bit off putting.
• Human Skin Rug: Take a moment to grasp the idea of a woman laying on the floor in this position for hours while she was covered with plastic to create this giant human skin rug. The designer, Chrissy Conant, is trying to convey her sense of feeling powerless and objectified, although there could have been different ways to go about the display of such feelings, like making a nice documentary, we hear those are all the rage these days.
• Fish Bowl Toilet & Sink: We love fish, we really do. Ever since Ernie called them into his boat on Sesame Street when we were little we were hooked. But the thought of having to clean the tanks on these contraptions is just mind blowing. Plus, the thought of Nemo watching you do your business is a bit bizarre. It's hard enough to go to the bathroom alone if you have dogs or kids, do we really need fish in the picture too?

At Novant Health, we support the nationwide effort to ensure that patients coming into the hospital with specific conditions receive recommended care. These recommendations are based on years of research on interventions that have been proven to improve outcomes for these conditions.
Hand washing is the number one way to prevent the spread of illness. This is why Novant Health promotes good hand hygiene, which means care givers should wash hands with soap and water, or use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer before and after each patient contact.
Compliance with strong hand hygiene protocols has led to a significant decrease in several key infection rates.
