Explorer Guitar Dimensions
Ahead of the co-operation between ESP and hetfield, Hetfields explorer style electric guitars belonged to Navigator band.
In the late nineteen eighties, ESP manufactured numerous explorer guitars for Hetfield, which includes a lot of well-known instruments as raised-middle-finger inlayed EET FUK explorer, dots inlayed explorer with words A Year and a Half In the Life of Metallica; pt. 1. All of these electric guitars had been named EX at the starting and later on referred to as MX-220ii.
Meaning of this name:
M- Metallica
X- Explorer
220- a normal price tag
II- two pickups
MX-220II is a bit shorter compared to the size (from the strap button at bottom to the point of the headstock), the angular is smoother slightly, the space between the toggle swap to the knob is a bit nearer compared to the current explorer instruments. And it features an exceptional truss rod cover which is parallel to the nut and possesses two anchoring screws. The construction of this guitar concerning the combination of the body and the neck is round jack embedded.
The further change to MX-220II is applying a metal plate with four screws to fix the jacks. The truss rod cover still carries two anchoring screws, but is not parallel to nut any longer. No alteration is made for the rest parts.
Later on, during the advancement of the MX-220II, the ESP changed the construction again to bolt-on structure.
The next MX-220II is really the same to Hetfields primary explorer. This instrument is belonging to EXPCustom with outdated fashioned body design and no serial number. It is stated that there is no serial number and round trademark about the headstock back of the MX-220II instrument.
Presumably, the shape of the mx-220II is completed in line with the 1958 explorer
The figure above is really a comparing between a 1958 explorer (red line) and a 1976 explorer (black line)
Explorer Guitar Dimensions
Eventually, the brand new style was named ESP MX250 II (later referred to as MX-II, 250 signifies the price). The ESP MX250 II is a little longer compared to MX-220II, more pointed at the tip. In early 1990s, ESP adopted parallel spherical ports. And in this ESP MX250 II, the pick-ups switch is a little bit further away from the volume control and pick-ups.
ESP MX250 II was unveiled in Japan, with mahogany body, mahogany neck, poly finish, black dots inlays, ebony fretboard, EMG81 pickups. No matter what color you desire, they are usually high-priced. You'll be able to inquire to get unique tuners as well as other optional variables, and you could customize this ESP MX250 II in USA, but they're identified as "EXP custom" mainly because the "MX" is allocated for other versions. They have bell-shaped truss rod cover which is fixed with one screw, behind the headstock there is the serial number. ESP batch adjusted the form of the truss rod cover in '55.
The image below is really a EXP Custom created 03 MX-II version.
The esp explorer introduced in U.S. are all EXP styles that have 2 variations, ESP and LTD. EXP is of MX-II body, bolt-on neck, the ESP (ESP EXP) version is characterized by mahogany body, maple neck, rosewood fingerboard; the LTD version (LTD EXP-200) is also of rosewood fretboard and maple neck. It is mentioned the ESP MX250 II body utilized different materials in various ages; alder applied in the earlier years, and later became mahogany. The fretboard inlays also altered, there had been two dots in the twelfth fret of the earlier LTD model but changed right into a block (inscribed with LTD) in later on versions.
The subsequent picture is definitely an old design LTD EXP-200 and an ESP MX-II
In LTD series, there's a type known as EXP-300, which features a neck through construction, licensed Floyd Rose Bridge and two EMG 81 pickups
In 2000, ESP launched a manufacturing facility in Korea and developed LTD MX-130 that is much like ESP MX250 II. And the intriguing thing is there is certainly no serial number. These ESP MX250 II were marketed simply in Japan. Like MX-II, they've 2 EMG81 pick-ups, neck through framework and black color finish. These instruments occasionally could be identified on Ebay but were discontinued in 2003.
Special Series
The initial EX/MX-220II custom inlays series is 1989s "EET FUK", which was released with a little quantity. The fifth fret is a little smaller and there is certainly no step over the neck. Obviously, Hetfield instantly found this problem; therefore the manufacturing line was required to be close up. It is stated that the quantity is under 30. Some ESP MX250 II body utilised this sort of inlays also.
The special ESP MX250 II as "Man To Wolf is known as Japans esp distinct interesting group, which means that you must bid a higher price to get ESP MX250 II.
Elk Skull ESP MX250 II was also made in the time period from late nineties to the year 2003 in custom series; they were personalized in the custom shop in Japan.

Before you post, here are some things you might want to try on your own. Generally, these things will be brought up once you do post and might just save you some time. For some, these steps are easily taken on their own. If you feel unsure of how to proceed, do not hesitate to post. Although, if your problem has been posted and resolved, there is a chance your thread will be locked and deleted after a period of time. That's necessary to keep the forum small so others can find things, too. But, this is not meant as a deterrent to posting your problem. The more issues that are found are the more that can be fixed, but keeping the total number of posts low will help people follow threads easier.
Try these steps first:
- Check the forum - Use the "Search" link to see if other people have had the issue you are having. This does two things: 1. Fixes your problem quickly if it has been brought up before. And 2. If it is an actual bug in the program, and the fix was a "workaround" around this bug, you can post that you had the same problem and this will let it be known how often this bug is affecting users' browsing... possibly moving it up on the "To Fix" list. Also,
- Try The Avant Tip! - Avant uses a file, "abrowser.ini", to store its settings. This file sometimes becomes corrupt and causes problems. If it is deleted, Avant re-creates it when it is loaded and many times, the problem is corrected. Try this even if your problems aren't "setting" related.
If you're certain that your problem has not been mentioned before, or you just want to be as absolutely thorough as you can, try the following:
This is really about three steps in one. But, most of the time starting at Step 3 will work. If not, you can try starting at Step 2. If that doesn't work try starting at Step 1. (You're getting the idea, aren't you? ) By that time, you'll have tried all of the common solutions that will be recommended to you in the forum
- 1. Uninstall Avant - Keep in mind that if you have skins that you have downloaded, this will erase them. I'd recommend backing them up to a different folder temporarily. (Or just ask Sara or Pip for them later. They'll be more than happy to scour over all of their skins to find the ones you poorly describe to them. <-that's a joke... really) Once uninstalled, you'll want to go to you Application Data folder (see here for directions) and delete your "Avant Browser" folder. If you have a lot of custom Searches, PopUp Exceptions, Groups, etc. you might just want to move these so that you have point of reference to re-enter all of these again.
2. Re-download Avant - There have been reports of others having problems and using a new setup file fixed them. If a new version has been released since your initial download, older releases can be found here. Be sure to thank MysteryFCM for hosting them.
3. Re-install Avant - Errors can occur while you're installing a program that will lead to problems once running or later on. Sometimes, just doing a simple re-install can get you back up again.

Chauncey on Karl: "We miss his voice, we miss his leadership"
A storyline in this series has been the absence of Nuggets coach George Karl, who is recovering from throat and neck cancer.
The Nuggets, now coached by Adrian Dantley, have now lost three-straight to Utah and trail in the series, 3-1.
Asked if George's absence has affected team, Chauncey Billups said this afternoon: "Absolutely. That's no slight on A.D. He's done a great job trying to maintain and handle the guys we have on this team. But yeah, definitely. I think you'd see that from any team that lost their head coach for the second-half of the season."
Asked what is the difference, the point guard said: "George won over 900 games, man. A.D.'s been coaching 9, 12 games. That's the difference. (Karl) is a head coach. A great head coach. You've got A.D. filling in who probably will be a head coach but hasn't had the opportunity to do that. We miss his voice, we miss his leadership, we miss the plays he draws up at timeouts, we miss the halftime speeches, we miss everything. But that's not an excuse at all. I think A.D. has done a wonderful job."

Today was "four days" ! Four days of me cutting lawn in sections with many many breaks in between. It might have been done yesterday morning, but no it had to rain all day yesterday. Do you know what that rain did? it started the front lawn that I had cut last Thursday to growing again ..... OH MAN !!! Please do NOT grow now until "Big Bad John" is fixed !!!!
Other then cutting lawn most of the day, I did manage to do one load of laundry to hang out on the clothes line, make our bed, do up some dishes and have our "Checkerboard Aussies" all rotated numerous times throughout the day.
With the John Deere all broken down, what on earth would I use to cut all this lawn that took me "four" days to do, you would ask?
After one of my many breaks, I even managed to do a little bit of weeding in a couple of the Flower beds. Where on earth did I ever find the time to "squeeze" that in, never mind the energy !
Oh yes, I also managed to draft a letter for the "Crabby Cabbie", return a phone call to my girlfriend, and do myself some damage while ...
Rob worked today, otherwise usually his day off. He was home in time to fire up the BBQ, doing an amazing job on grilling the Prime Rib Steak for our dinner, while I whipped up his favourite salad.
Recipe please?

Broccoli Salad
Chop Broccoli (fine or otherwise)
Cheddar Cheese, shredded
1/2 cup raisins
8-10 slices "crisp" bacon, broken up
sunflower seeds, unsalted
1 cup mayo
3 tbsp. cider vinegar
1/2 cup sugar
Blend dressing & place in fridge the morning of, or evening before; prior to serving mix all ingredients together, blend in dressing & serve.
Depending on how large of salad you require, adjust ingredients and dressing accordingly.
**NOTE: Any leftover dressing can be kept in fridge a few days; also the broccoli stems can be peeled, then chopped to use in salad.
Once supper was over with, I took Bandit outside to clip his nails. Rob then came out after to help me clip Buddy's nails, then we gave him a really good brushing out ... such handsome boys we have.
I am "exhausted", never mind the hurting. Dishes still waiting to be done in the kitchen sink, while longing for a nice hot soak in the tub, "Just North of Wiarton & South of the Checkerboard".

8-oz 100% recycled polyester double-faced fleece
Recycled Polyester
In 1993, we adopted fleece into our product line made from post consumer recycled (PCR) plastic soda bottles. We were the first outdoor clothing manufacturer to do so. PCR® clothing was a positive step towards a more sustainable system – one that uses fewer resources, discards less and better protects people's health.
Today, we're able to utilize more sources for recycled polyester and offer it on more garments such as Capilene® baselayers, shell jackets, board shorts, and fleece. We now recycle used soda bottles, unusable manufacturing waste, and worn out garments (including our own) into polyester fibers to produce many of our clothes.
Using recycled polyester lessens our dependence on petroleum as a raw material source, curbs discards and reduces toxic emissions from incinerators.
Fair Trade Certified™
We pay a premium for every Fair Trade Certified item that carries our label. That extra money goes directly to the workers at the factory, and they decide how to spend it. The program also promotes worker health and safety and social and environmental compliance, and encourages dialog between workers and management.

Joseph Privat de Molières
Born: 1677 in Tarascon, Bouches-du-Rhône, France
Died: 12 May 1742 in Paris, France
|Main Index
|Biographies index
Joseph Privat de Molières's parents were Charles Privat de Molières and Martine de Robins de Barantane. He was born into an aristocratic Provencal family, the second of his parents sons. He was given a good educations at schools run by the Congregation of the Oratory. The Congregation of the Oratory of Jesus and Mary Immaculate, often called the Oratorians, was a Roman Catholic sect founded by Pierre de Bérulle in 1611 and approved by the Pope in 1613. It had a fine reputation for providing a good education with particular emphasis on the classical languages. Joseph studied at Oratorian schools in Aix, Marseilles, Arles and Angers. At the last of these schools he studied under Charles-René Reyneau from 1698 until 1699. After the death of his elder brother, Joseph was expected to devote his life to running the affairs of his family. He chose, however, against his parents wishes, an ecclesiastical life and entered the Congregation of the Oratory in 1699.
His first posts were teaching in schools belonging to the Congregation of the Oratory, first at Saumur, then at Juilly and finally at Soissons. However he had a deep love of science in general, and mathematics in particular, and in 1704 he went to Paris to take up a more active scientific career. There he studied mathematics and physics with Malebranche until 1715. In 1723 he was appointed to a chair at the Collège Royal to succeed Varignon.
He argued against Newton and for Descartes' view of physics although he knew Newton's to be the more precise. Of course, although we now accept Newton's ideas of gravitation without much thought, it is clear if one thinks about it for a while that the idea of action at a distance through a vacuum is absurd. Many around this time voiced such an opinion (Newton himself realised this was a weakness in his theories) but where Privat de Molières differed from other critics of Newton's theory of gravitation is that he attempted to make a mathematically sound theory based on the idea of vortices. Understanding the accuracy of the theory of gravitation, Privat attempted to bring Newton's calculations into the vortex theory of matter of Malebranche. The problem was Kepler's laws, easily explained by Newton, but the cause of real problems for Descartes' vortex theory of planetary motion. Nakata gives details of Privat's theory in [5]. In fact in a memoir written in 1733 Privat criticised Newton's theories for being too accurate saying that physical phenomena did not have geometrical precision:-
However it will happen that it is only approximately that the points of the vortex will have this force which depends on the square of the distance and thus the area they span will also be only approximately as the time; but this will simply be more in conformity with the astronomical observations; thus the mechanical forces of the vortex give us the astronomical laws as they are in effect with a better precision than the purely metaphysical forces of Newton which give those laws with too much geometrical precision.Fontenelle, the secretary of the Academy of Sciences, agreed with Privat de Molières. He wrote in his annual report on the work of the Academy:-
M l'Abbé de Molières astutely criticizes Newton on his extreme precision; physical principles are not so precise when we come to apply them to phenomena.Although his arguments were very effective particularly as he was able to incorporate a theory of electrical and chemical phenomena within his little vortices theory, eventually Newtonian physics came to the fore in France.
Privat de Molières published Lecons de mathematiques Ⓣ (1726), a work on the principles of algebra and calculus. His Lecons de physique, contenant les éléments de la physique déterminés par les seules lois des méchaniques Ⓣ (1734-1739), was a four volume work based on his lectures at the Collège Royal and contains details of the mathematical theory of his elastic "little vortices". He also published a series of Memoirs of the Academy and in several articles in the Journal de Trevoux.
Privat de Molières was honoured by being elected to the Academy of Sciences in 1721, and became a Fellow of the Royal Society of London in 1729.

Just read through a great question (on getting players to play in line with their characters' cultures) and it got me thinking:
What do you do to make the cultures in your setting differ?
Let's say you have only two cultures in your setting that the PCs will run across. These cultures are found in the same climate region, and they have the same general sort of technology, so those aren't the differentiating factors. What do you do to make them completely different?
Edit: I'm particularly thinking about how cultures vary in behavior.

We see this a lot at sporting events, but not a lot of it from the entertainment industry. When someone from Hollywood gets up and thanks God, especially at the Oscars, it makes headlines … which says volumes about Hollywood and the media.
What's most interesting about this heartfelt gratitude towards God is the reaction it gets from the Academy audience, or more accurately, the lack thereof:
In accepting the best actor Oscar for his role as Ron Woodroof in "Dallas Buyer's Club" on Sunday, McConaughey, 44, said he needs three things in his life to survive: God, family and someone to look up to as a hero. …
After thanking God, his wife and children, his mother and his late father, he offered up something else long-time fans have been waiting to hear this Oscar season: "All right, all right, all right."
And that's what "brought the house down," as CBS reports. At least they didn't boo God, which means that Hollywood is still a little ahead of the Democratic Party's 2012 convention performance. Kudos to McConaughey for his speech, but I'm a little mystified at the attention it's getting. Has no recent Oscar winner mentioned God in an acceptance speech? I haven't watched the show in years, but I find it a little difficult to believe that it's that rare.
Update: Via Twitchy, one MTV host even noticed the stunned reaction:

Waco, TX (March 13, 2013) - Texas Farmers Union (TFU) President Wes Sims stated that the budget proposal recently released by the leadership of the U. S. House of Representatives and Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan, R-WI is unfair and would be very harmful to the economy of rural Texas.
Our farmers, ranchers and rural communities have already suffered a disproportionate share of cuts from the farm, bill extension and sequester. It will also turn the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) into block grants for states, said Sims.
Their fiscal year 2014 budget proposal would cut $31 billion from the farm, programs. The depth of the cuts to SNAP are similar to last year's House budget proposal which totaled $134 billion.
These projected cuts to farm bill programs are many times larger than proportionate and will likely make it impossible to pass a five year farm bill.
Texas Farmers Union has been working since 1902 to protect and enhance the economic well-being and quality of life for family farmers, ranchers and rural communities through advocating grass roots driven policy positions adopted by its membership.

Jimmy Burchfield's Classic Entertainment & Sports scored a knockout victory in a New York City courtroom Thursday fighting on behalf No. 1-ranked lightweight "Hammerin'" Hank Lundy.
On the eve of Lundy's nationally-televised showdown with Mexican challenger Raymundo Beltran, inactive promoter Boxing 360 pushed for a last-minute preliminary injunction that would've cancelled Lundy's North American Boxing Federation (NABF) title defense on ESPN's Friday Night Fights.
CES, represented in court by boxing attorney Scott Shaffer, convinced New York Supreme Court Justice Charles Ramos a last-minute injunction to cancel the event would've been unfair to all parties, thus Ramos ruled in favor of CES.
"As the promoter of tomorrow's show, I was determined to fight to save the main event," Burchfield said. "Through our hard work and perseverance, my staff and I worked nonstop to put this show together; it is our third event in nine days in three different cities, and we were determined to do everything within our power to help Hank Lundy continue along his journey toward becoming the lightweight champion of the world.
"In addition, I promised ESPN and the Resorts Casino Hotel a dynamite show on Friday, and, thanks to the work put in by all parties, that is what we will have tomorrow night.
"There are two things everyone should know about our company," he continued. "First, we stand by our fighters at all times, and we will go to great lengths to defend them, whether that's in or outside of the courtroom.
"Second, we are not the promotional firm you want to cross, because we believe in our fighters and provide them with the love and respect no other promoter can provide. We will fight to the finish. We proved that this afternoon."

A study conducted by NOAA and the FDA, building upon the extensive testing and protocols already in use by federal, state and local officials for the fishing waters of the Gulf, NOAA and the FDA are using a chemical test to detect dispersants used in the Deepwater Horizon-BP oil spill in fish, oysters, crab and shrimp. Trace amounts of the chemicals used in dispersants are common, and levels for safety have been previously set. Previous testing involved a "sensory analysis process".
Using this new test in the Gulf scientists have tested 1,735 tissue samples including more than half of those collected to reopen Gulf of Mexico federal waters. Only a few showed trace amounts of dispersants residue (13 of the 1,735) and they were well below the safety threshold of 100 parts per million for finfish and 500 parts per million for shrimp, crabs and oysters. As such, the study concludes that they do not pose a threat to human health.
The new test detects dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate, known as DOSS, a major component of the dispersants used in the Gulf. DOSS is also approved by FDA for use in various household products and over-the-counter medication at very low levels. The best scientific data to date indicates that DOSS does not build up in fish tissues.
"The rigorous testing we have done from the very beginning gives us confidence in the safety of seafood being brought to market from the Gulf," said Jane Lubchenco, Ph.D., under secretary for commerce and NOAA administrator. "This test adds another layer of information, reinforcing our findings to date that seafood from the Gulf remains safe."
"This new test should help strengthen consumer confidence in Gulf seafood," said Margaret A. Hamburg, Ph.D., commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration. "The overwhelming majority of the seafood tested shows no detectable residue, and not one of the samples shows a residue level that would be harmful for humans. There is no question Gulf seafood coming to market is safe from oil or dispersant residue."

It's been more an issue of time restraints than lack of motivation that has kept me away from this blog over the past few months. Side projects here, trip around the world there, etc. etc.
To get back into my Processing exploration, I decided to formalize some of my most commonly-used functions into a single staring-point library/framework that I could build new sketches off of. Called ioLib, I've pushed it up to my ongoing gitHub repository of various sketches for anyone's use. It's not documented all that well, and as far as frameworks go I'd imagine there's still a lot of work to be done toward making it self-contained, so I doubt it'll be broadly applicable to people other than me. Maybe over time it'll grow into something a bit more formal.
I tried to focus on some basic interactivity and output functions, stuff I find myself using over and over again. Straight from the README, this is what's in it so far:
Bitmap and Vector Output
- pressing 's' saves a screencap as PNG
- pressing 'p' saves a screencap as PDF
- 3D mode is a bit quirky; the raw triangles are saved, even for 2D shapes. The background colour doesn't save either.
2D / 3D Toggle
So far everything works with both 2D and 3D renderers, switching is a simple matter of adjusting the sceneDimensions variable in the user-configurable settings.
Palette Generation from Random Images
Any images (PNG, JPG or GIF) dropped into data/paletteSource will be used as input for the random palette generation function. The paletteCount variable in the user-configurable settings controls how large the palette will be.
Mouse and Keyboard Interaction
- click and drag the mouse to rotate in 2D / 3D space
- pressing '+' zooms in, '-' zooms out
- arrow keys move the scene around
- holding Shift increases the offset 10x
- holding Ctrl increases the offset 100x
- holding Ctrl + Shift increases the offset 1000x
- pressing 'c' saves the palette
- pressing 'r' resets the palette

The Scottish SPCA is appealing to the kind-hearted people of Aberdeen to help at the pets at home Santa Paws event to raise vital funds for abused, abandoned and injured animals over the festive period.
Scotland's animal welfare charity is looking for anyone who can spare even an hour of their time; it's a great festive activity to do with friends, work colleagues or alone to meet new people.
Aberdeen animal, rescue and rehoming centre manager Graeme Innes said: "From now until December 24, folk can visit the Aberdeen Pets at Home store where they will get the chance to meet Scottish SPCA volunteers, supporters, staff members and dogs from the Scottish SPCA's animal rescue and rehoming centres.
"We are encouraging the public to get into the Christmas spirit by dressing up in festive fancy dress, take your four-legged friend along or bring some baked goodies to encourage donations."
Graeme added: "The Scottish SPCA receives no government or Lottery funding and we rely on the kindness and generosity of the public to continue our work. We would be extremely grateful if anyone would like to donate their time and help us raise vital funds."
Regular volunteer Heather Rawles said: "I have found that people in Aberdeenshire are very supportive of charities, and there is great respect for the work that the Scottish SPCA do!
"I use fundraising as a way to say thank-you to the Scottish SPCA for the animals that I have rehomed over the years."
For more information on Scottish SPCA fundraising events please email firstname.lastname@example.com or call fundraising on 03000 999 999 (option 4).

Pleasant Time Catching UpPosted by Kat at 10:52 PM
On Saturday, Lil Bel and I hit the mall up. I hope she got the Prada sunglasses she liked. They looked wonderful ^_-. Since she has never tried the Nordstrom Cafe, I had to introduce her! I have been going to this place since High School. This time I decided to order something different from the first post. Just a friendly reminder, I have been to many different Nordstrom Cafes and they all vary slightly. My favorite one is still in Mission Viejo Mall. The service there varies, but the interior decor is always pleasant. It can get rather crowded on the weekends, but it's worth the wait.
As usual, I had to get the Roma Tomato with Basil soup with delicious extra Garlic Cheese Bread. They were actually out when I got there, so I had to wait a while to get my soup. It was a little annoying that they took a really long time to bring out the soup because it came with the sandwich. I couldn't really get a head start on the soup, so it got a little cold as I kept trying to work from one dish to the next. The soup of course was great as usual.
I decided to showcase the Pesto Chicken Panini. If you like sun-dried tomato and creamy pesto, then this would be perfect for you. The sandwich is always loaded with thinly sliced chicken breast. It's a very filling sandwich and goes great with the soup. The only thing I don't like about the sandwich is that after eating it for a while, it scrapes the roof of your mouth. It came with fresh made potato chips on the side. This is the best panini there in my opinion. It has the most flavor out of the three.
Lil Bel decided to try the Roasted Chicken with Roasted Vegetables. I have never ordered that dish, because I hate chicken with bones. To my surprise it was almost boneless. There was only a small wing bone still attached. The chicken was roasted to perfection and very moist. It was a little lacking in flavor, but very healthy. I liked the slight lemon flavor. There was a ton of roasted vegetables, which would be my Krytonite. Yuck! lol O=P I am a carnivore! I am allergic to all vegetables. O=) The dish was very filling over all. I had to help Lil Bel with her dish, which led me to take half my sandwich home.
To fulfill her sweet tooth, Lil Bel ordered the Crème Brûlée. They seemed to have forgotten it and I just told the server, she immediately brought one out without even checking to see we ordered one. I must say they were very trusting. They have pretty good desserts at this location. I have tried them all. The Crème brûlée that day was a little TOO creamy for me. It was very thick. The torched sugar made it taste a lot better. I wish they put different fruits, but I guess they weren't in season. Usually there's a wide variety of fruits and not just a lot of raspberries.
All in the food was good and solid. The service here varies. I like the mint chocolate strips they give you at the end so that you will tip them. I guess it's a smart ploy. The cafe is always nice and clean. I will most likely be back soon again with MBA, as I have made her addict of the soup. ^_~

An exterior paint makeover
It's amazing what a little paint can do to change the appearance of the exterior of your home. Whether you choose to touch up your trim or cover the entire exterior of a building, fall is a great time to get this job done.
Fall Conditions CooperateSince most regions don't experience much humidity during autumn, the chance that paint will dry evenly and adhere to surfaces are greatly enhanced. High levels of humidity can cause moisture from the air to get between the surface and paint, causing flaking and a dull color.
According to some real estate experts, spring is the time of year when buyers face the most competition, resulting in homes selling faster and for higher premiums. If you're considering going to market after winter has passed, a fresh coat of paint done in the fall can add value and curb appeal to attract homebuyers in the near future.
Touching Up or Major Operation?When planning your exterior paint job, ask yourself if you are only focusing on a small area or aiming to coat your entire home. Small jobs are easy for a homeowner, but ensure you are using the correct paint for your region's conditions and stay safe if you'll be on a ladder.
Those who will be painting their entire home should consider hiring a contractor. Especially for those with larger homes, getting those hard-to-reach areas can be extremely dangerous; a professional is well-trained and experienced. Plus, during the fall, the demand for painters may not be as high as it is in other seasons, meaning there shouldn't be a long wait list.
Refresh TrimDon't ignore the trim of your home when painting the exterior. A fresh coat of paint to highlight your doors and windows can make a drab entrance area pop. To add an even more attractive ambiance, consider hanging shutters which match your trim color to surrounding windows.

South Lenoir punished visiting pitcher Sarah Smoot, literally and figuratively, and the Blue Devils cruised to a deceptively easy 10-2 triumph over Climax Providence Grove in the second round of the NCHSAA state 2A softball playoffs Tuesday.
DEEP RUN � South Lenoir punished visiting pitcher Sarah Smoot, literally and figuratively, and the Blue Devils cruised to a deceptively easy 10-2 triumph over Climax Providence Grove in the second round of the NCHSAA state 2A softball playoffs Tuesday.
The Blue Devils (20-3) also caught a huge break after the game when Whiteville defeated top-seeded Bartlett-Yancey 3-2, guaranteeing South Lenoir a third-round home game on Friday against the Wolfpack instead of the lengthy trip across the state to Yanceyville.
�It was a good night all around,� SL coach Lisa Smith said. �We played extremely well and we get to stay at home on Friday. Everything worked out just like we hoped it would.�
It definitely wasn�t a good night for Smoot, the Patriots� ace right-hander who had struck out 104 batters in 76 innings of work coming into the contest.
In addition to being pounded for seven hits and all 10 Devils runs, the junior was drilled twice by hard hit balls back through the box.
The first time, in the fourth, came off the bat of Mattie Beyer and nailed Smoot in the left thigh. She was able to walk that one off and stay in the game.
Smoot wasn�t so lucky in the sixth.
SL�s Brianna Williams scorched a fastball off the pitcher�s right forearm, and this time Smoot was forced to leave the game. Her condition was unavailable at press time.
�We hit the ball hard all night; it�s a shame their pitcher got hurt like she did,� Smith said. �It certainly wasn�t anything intentional. I hope she�ll be okay.�
On the other side, SL pitchers Taylor Sandlin and Beyer were more than okay.
Sandlin scattered five hits over five innings with three strike outs. Beyer allowed one hit and one unearned run over the final two frames.
After spotting the Patriots a 1-0 lead in the top of the first, the Devils made short work of the visitors, scoring six times in the first three innings.
Some nifty base running by Madison Herring and a clutch, two-out, two-run base hit by Anna Wetherington led to three SL runs in the bottom of the first.
Morgan Mentz delivered a second inning single that also plated two runs and contributed a sacrifice fly during a four-run SL outburst in the sixth.
Williams managed three hits and an RBI for the Devils, while Beyer collected two hits and drove in a run in the sixth with a double to deep center field.
Hanna Meready and Cassidy Willoughby also garnered hits for the Devils.
Although Herring didn�t get a hit, she scored three times and literally stole SL�s first run when she caught the Patriots infield napping and tallied all the way from first base on an infield hit by Williams.
�I have a lot to be pleased about,� Smith said. �We hit the ball well, our pitchers were outstanding, and we played excellent defense. It was just a great overall effort by a team that had worked hard the entire season.�

Students new to the /Odyssey/ sometimes find disappointing the relative absence of the kind of psychological realism we find in novels, and leave the poem with a secure sense of Odysseus's wanderings but a suspicion that the Homeric notion of character doesn't extend much past its famous epithets. What the poem seems to demand, however, is a different strategy for interpreting the relationship between narrative and character. In this seminar we'll consider the /Odyssey's/ narrative structure – its retrospection, the contrived nature of many of its inset stories, the dissimulations of its storytellers – as a map of thought and memory, a rich and sophisticated way to get at the nature of the psyche. We'll read excerpts from Robert Fagles's translation of the /Odyssey/, with special attention to some of the narrative cruxes.
Seminar led by Amelia Zurcher, Marquette University

Africa: Hussein Execution "Barbaric�
"His execution will not solve anything,� said Zimbabwe's Minister of State for Public and Interactive Affairs, Chen Chimutengwende, who added that it was the Americans and not Iraqis who killed Hussein. "The execution will strengthen the fight against American imperialism and the Americans will be defeated."
The execution of Saddam Hussein, Iraq's deposed president, has been roundly condemned by officials and scholars throughout Africa. Most critics insist it won't resolve the U.S-Iraq crisis or ease the orgy of bloodletting.
"South Africa remains convinced that his execution is not the panacea to the current political problems in Iraq but could fuel violence in an already volatile situation," Ronnie Mamoepa, spokesperson of the South African foreign affairs ministry, said, speaking for the government. "We reiterate the call made by President Thabo Mbeki that, despite what happened in the past, the United Nations must get involved to help bring peace and stability in Iraq," he said.
"His execution will not solve anything,� said Zimbabwe's Minister of State for Public and Interactive Affairs, Chen Chimutengwende, who added that it was the Americans and not Iraqis who killed Hussein. "The execution will strengthen the fight against American imperialism and the Americans will be defeated."
Dr. Godfrey Chikowore, a political analyst at the University of Zimbabwe lambasted the US and its allies for persecuting a leader who opposed imperialistic ambitions. "It's cruelty against heads of states of the developing world. An alternative to execution should have been found," he said.
Another Zimbabwe critic and media analyst Dr. Tafataona Mahoso said both the British and the Americans had nothing to gain from the "barbaric� killing of Saddam. "This execution is an act of desperation because the government put in Iraq by the occupying forces has failed to manage. This execution will incense most Third World leaders."
He said Saddam's execution was a tragedy to Americans who wanted to project a clean image of their country. "The execution is not going to stop anything. The execution images are going to attract the sympathy of the world against the United States and Britain," he said.
Furthermore, the execution would fuel tension between Americans and Arabs and push Iraq deeper into a new wave of chaos and bloodbath, he added. Hussein was killed for the role the US charged he played in the death of 148 Shiites in the town of Dujail in 1982, after a bid to topple his regime.
A member of the Majlisul Ulama in Zimbabwe said it was worrying that Saddam's execution was coming at a time when Muslim world was marking Eid Mubarak or Eid al-Adha -the Feast of the Sacrifice, a major religious holiday for Muslims.
"His execution really confirms that the Muslim world is facing a real threat of persecution from America,� he said. "They want to persecute our people. Allah will stand by us until victory is achieved over the Third World bully, George Bush and his America."

The Christmas packages just kept coming for Bob and Kathleen Buchanan late last year.
They came in the form of little black calves, one after another until there were eight on Christmas Day 2012. The Buchanans were close by for each of the births. The couple are longtime owners of the Buchanan Angus Ranch, located a few miles north of Klamath Falls, Ore., and raising healthy calves is their livelihood.
"It's a love of a lifestyle," Bob Buchanan said. "You have to love the animals, you have to love the lifestyle. It's not a 9-to-5 job. Some days, many, many days are long, but they have their rewards.
"Some people do their job and don't see an end result," he added. "The rewards here are visual."
That would be seeing their 130 purebred black Angus mother cows give birth without any complications, resulting in newborns. But if there are birthing issues, the Buchanans are close at hand and are veterans at helping with the process.
"You're basically pouring your heart and soul into helping them survive," Buchanan said of the cows and calves. "Even when it's cold and blowy, I love being outside, I love being independent. We've been fortunate enough to make a living doing something we love to do."
Buchanan said his cows are artificially inseminated to the best sires available in the Angus breed. The characteristics of the calves are moderate birth weights, but then rapid growth by feeding on their mothers' milk and by grazing on the native pastures. Those genetics are passed on to their own calves. The ranch doesn't own a creep feeder.
The Buchanan bulls are sold at 12 to 15 months of age at the ranch's own bull sale in February at the Klamath County Fairgrounds in Klamath Falls. The sale also includes a few consignment bulls from Buchanan heifers that are now in the herds of other ranches.
Last year's sale featured 70 bulls, and 60 to 70 bulls will be for sale at the February 2014 sale.
"It's a good old fashioned country western hospitality event," Kathleen Buchanan said of the bull sale weekend that starts with a showing and barbecue dinner Saturday night and the auction at noon Sunday.
The Buchanan heifers are sold privately from the ranch, either individually or in groups to both purebred and commercial operations.
Bob and Kathleen Buchanan grew up around animals in the Klamath area. Their families were long-time friends and the two of them were in 4-H together.
At age 6, Bob Buchanan led his first Hereford heifer down the road to a neighbor's ranch to be bred by an Angus bull brought from Illinois by rancher Scott Warren. The resulting calf was black with a white face.
"Bob had the first black baldy calf in the county as far as we know," Kathleen Buchanan said. "For that time, it was a unique combination. Scott took Bob and the cow and calf around to show at a lot of events."
Warren had started the Algoma line of Black Angus and Bob Buchanan got his first registered Angus heifer from Warren in the mid-1960s. When Warren retired in the late 1960s, he sold part of his Angus herd to Bob Buchanan.
Although Bob Buchanan attended Oregon Institute of Technology in Klamath Falls and earned a mechanical engineering degree, his intent was always to be a rancher. He said he went to OIT so he'd be close to home and could continue to run cattle in between classes and studying.
He bought property from his grandparents in the 1970s and he and Kathleen have built their ranch up to 600 acres over the years. It's just about a half mile from where Bob was raised.
"It's still fun," Bob Buchanan said of ranching. "Sometimes it's cold and miserable, but you can't tell a cow when to calve. I tell people we don't own the cows, they own us."

Owners: Bob and Kathleen Buchanan
Location: Several miles north of Klamath Falls, Ore., alongside Klamath Lake

Kenseth wins 2nd Chase race at New Hampshire
Kenseth earns second straight victory two races into Chase for Sprint Cup
LOUDON, N.H. — Matt Kenseth turned in another dominating performance at New Hampshire Motor Speedway in Loudon on Sunday.
He led 106 laps in the second half of the Sylvania 300 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race on his way to his seventh win of the season. It was Kenseth's second straight victory two races into the Chase for the Sprint Cup.
Kyle Busch finished second to Kenseth for the second straight week to give Joe Gibbs Racing its second consecutive one-two finish. Busch took the second spot on a restart that followed a caution with 55 laps remaining in the 300-lap race, and the teammates ran first and second the rest of the way.
Greg Biffle finished third, Jimmie Johnson was fourth, and Jamie McMurray rounded out the top five.
Martin Truex Jr. dominated the first half of the race, leading 98 laps before losing the top spot to Kenseth on lap 153. Kenseth lost the lead to Jeff Gordon during a caution that came out on lap 164 when Gordon, along with a handful of other drivers, took two tires and Kenseth took four.
Gordon remained up front until a debris caution with 100 laps to go. Johnson and Kenseth got off pit road first and second to restart on the second row behind Clint Bowyer and Marcos Ambrose, who stayed out, while Gordon was shuffled back to 22nd after sliding through his pit stall.
Kenseth got up to second on the restart and then took the lead from Bowyer a few laps later. Johnson followed him through to second. Kenseth remained up front for the remainder of the race, joined by Busch up front in the final 50 laps.
Dale Earnhardt Jr. recovered from a pit road issue early in the race to finish sixth. During the first caution on lap 30, Earnhardt had to make a second stop to tighten lug nuts. Already mired back in the field, he pitted for fresh tires while the front runners stayed out during a lap-51 caution. Earnhardt then stayed out several laps after everyone else cycled through green-flag pit stops around lap 110.
After the rest of the field cycled through stops, Earnhardt inherited the lead, giving up the position to pit on lap 130. He fell back through the field again with the stop but gained position back with a two-tire stop during a lap-153 caution. He remained in the top-10 for the remainder of the race and finished sixth.
Brian Vickers finished seventh, Jeff Burton was eighth, Carl Edwards ninth and Truex finished 10th.
NOTES: Sunday's race at New Hampshire was Kenseth's 500th in the Sprint Cup Series…. Only two other drivers have ever opened the Chase with two straight wins — Biffle in 2008 and Tony Stewart in 2011…. The win was the first for Kenseth at New Hampshire Motor Speedway…. Teammates Kenseth and Busch are also first and second in the points standings…. There were 19 lead changes among 11 different drivers…. The yellow flag waved seven times for 37 laps.

By Anne Graham Lotz
Today, the world will celebrate the day of love—Valentine's Day. For some, it is a time of special celebration … for others, it is a time of special challenge as there is no special person with whom to share this day.
If the latter is your experience and you are feeling depressed, would you consider this? The most special Person in all the universe loved you enough to give His life for you—and this Valentine's Day, He is longing not only to embrace you, He is longing for you to embrace Him.
Everyone needs a hug! And as you delve into the pages of your Bible, God will respond with His own arms opened wide.
As you seek Him, you will find that He will draw you nearer to Himself in an ever more intimate relationship. So get into His Word each day and begin now to enjoy His embrace.
When we are in the midst of a trial, instead of withdrawing or exploding or complaining, you and I need to run to our Heavenly Father, throw our arms of faith around Him, and embrace Him more tightly. Why?
Read Psalm 84. The Psalmist gives us three reasons:
Psalm 84:1-4
From Psalm 84:1-4, what are some themes for our song? List the phrases.
Identify phrases from the following verses that reveal a common theme: Isaiah 49:13, 52:9; Job 35:9-10; Psalm 126:5-6.
What is the common theme in Exodus 15:2, Isaiah 12:2 and 2 Samuel 22:1? List phrases from each verse.
What phrases reveal the common theme in Psalm 28:7, 18:1, 32:7 and 126:2?
What are the phrases that express a common theme in Psalm 42:8 and 59:16?
Which theme has been lacking in your life? If you have lost your song, do you need to tune your heart to all the themes given above?
What are some other themes that fill your heart with joy? Write out the verses.
Psalm 84:5-7
From Psalm 84:5, what is the source of our strength? If you lack strength, what practical things can you do to draw from the Source?
From Psalm 84:6, what does God's strength enable us to do? Note that the Valley of Baca referenced in this verse is the Valley of Weeping. What do the springs represent? See John 4:13-14 and 7:37-39.
From each of the following lists of verses, what else does God give us strength to do?
Ezekiel 2:1-2, John 5:1-9, Micah 5:4, Jude 24-25.
Isaiah 63:1, 2 Samuel 22:40.
Mark 11:25, Colossians 3:13 and Matthew 18:21-22.
Isaiah 30:15.
Psalm 73:26, Isaiah 57:10.
Hebrews 11:34.
What are you saying you can't do? What phrase in Psalm 84:5-7 contradicts your protest? What encouragement do you receive from Deuteronomy 33:25?
Psalm 84:8-12
Who is our shield? See Psalm 7:10.
How does this relate to Ephesians 6:16?
What difference do you think our proximity to the Shield makes in its effectiveness?
What are the two primary things we must do to stay close to our Shield? See John 15:7, 10.
In each of the following lists of verses, how do we benefit from our Shield?
Nahum 2:5; 2 Samuel 22:3; Psalm 18:30, 91:4.
Deuteronomy 33:29; Psalm 18:35, 144:2; Jeremiah 51:11.
2 Samuel 22:31, 1 Peter 1:5.
Psalm 3:3, 5:12, 84:11.
If God Himself is our Shield, what do you think could get past Him?
How do Job 1:6-12 and 2:1-6 indicate that when something unpleasant, unwanted, unexpected or unplanned comes into your life, it is only with God's permission?
What has God allowed past the Shield that guards your life? Why do you think He has given His permission? See John 11:4, Romans 8:28, 1 Peter 1:6-7.
How long has it been since you wrapped your arms of faith around the One who loves you, and embraced Him? Don't let your problems or pressures or pain or pride keep you from doing so. Today, give the Lord a Valentine gift … something to truly delight His heart … a hug from you!
Anne Graham Lotz will hold a special seminar at The Cove called "Pursuing MORE of Jesus" November 9-11. For more information or to register online, click here.

Henderson finding way tough in camp again
Henderson finding way tough in camp again
Richard Dark
Louisiana Gannett News Service
METAIRIE - The obvious does not escape Devery Henderson.
The Opelousas native and former LSU standout wide receiver, now in his second season with the New Orleans Saints, can see the handwriting on the wall: Rally and finish this 2005 training camp and preseason strong, or face another campaign like the previous one, languishing on the sidelines in street clothes come Sundays.
Perhaps the biggest topic of this camp has been the ongoing battle for the third receiver spot behind Joe Horn and Donte Stallworth.
Much has been made of the recent acquisition of free agent Az-Zahir Hakim from Detroit and the sharp emergence of New Orleans native Talman Gardner. Hakim and Gardner have grabbed the headlines and accolades, as they have footballs, throughout the first week of practices.
Coach Jim Haslett has been quick to dole out the praise this past week, saying Gardner, "has been outstanding in this camp. He might be our best receiver out there right now, as far as catching the ball. There are going to be some tough decisions (at that spot), because right now he's probably our best receiver."
Hakim, infamous in Saints history for muffing the punt that led to the franchise's only playoff victory in 2000, has the game experience and stats that the coaching staff is enamored with and has also had a strong first eight days.
Conversely, Haslett has told the media that Henderson, "needs to pick it up. He has all the talent in the world, but we just have to keep getting on him. He's got great speed. He just has to keep working on the ball skills, but he has picked it up here the last couple of days."
Meanwhile, there is Henderson quietly going about his business. Following Friday's practice, he broke his silence on the "Race for No. 3."
"I'm not really worried about it. I mean, it fuels me because it's a lot of good competition out there,'' Henderson said. "I'm just trying to compete to the best of my ability and whatever happens, happens. I gotta keep moving forward, so when that opportunity comes, I'll be ready."
The actual progress in that direction might be the main problem. Henderson is known for his penchant of making two or three eye-opening plays daily, but also making routine gaffes, as well, creating a two-steps-forward-one-step-back perception of his play.
"I think the biggest thing Devery needs to work on his consistency," said receivers coach Jimmy Robinson. "He'll flash a play or two really in almost every practice where he'll beat press coverage and then he'll have one or two easy ones that get away from him."
Robinson denied widespread speculation that Henderson has been in a group of several players for whom the offensive playbook was pared back since the second-round pick's late arrival to training camp last season.
"No, the mental part of it I don't think is a major issue with him. I wouldn't say he's had a problem digesting the playbook," he said.
Henderson is working predominately at split end and flanker.
"It's just being able to come out and practice well every day to where we are constantly taking steps forward," Robinson added. "We are still thinking he's going to be a great player for us."
So would a simple matter of inexperience be the main factor as to why he hasn't progressed as well as the team had hoped?
"It's not really one thing. I just have a lot to learn, a lot to put together,'' Henderson said. "You could get away with a lot of things in college with just your ability, but you can't do that here. Your ability can only take you so far. You have to know the game."
Perhaps the final and greatest factor separating the three, at least at this point, is special teams prowess.
Haslett has made no bones about the fact that depth players have to be able to do more than one thing. And despite Henderson's college experience in the kicking game, he lags behind Hakim and Gardner in that area.
"I think it's something I definitely can improve upon," Henderson said. "I don't have any problem playing special teams. It's something I enjoyed doing at LSU. I think (the perception is) that I don't want to play on special teams. I've never once said that and for anybody to think that, they're wrong."
One thing is certain, the No. 3 job is still open and Henderson is being given his fair chance to win it. He has been labeled "the odd man out" by some.
"I told those three guys, 'Look we're all grown men here, and whoever winds up being the best third guy will be the one that they put on the field, and whoever don't, won't,'" Horn said. "You have to be consistent and end the way you start. It's not how you start training camp in this league, it's how you finish."

You've have read about it on the forums, and here it is. An oversized O-Ring to replace Kawasaki PN 92055-1639. The factory sized O-Ring has been a known leak source for awhile.
MOB was taking care of the clan by selling these on the cheap, and if folks would send a buck and a self-addressed, stamped envelope they were on the way. We tried to keep the price down but for whatever reason, when we tried using the standard drop in the mail envelope with a stamp a whopping 20% never made the trip. SO... we now ship these in our standard bubble envelope USPS 1st Class with tracking.
Two for $6, which of course includes the shipping.
Thanks to MOB!

Timothy and Bridget Fogarty
Looking for information on Timothy and Bridget Fogarty. Bridget and Timothy were brother and sister. Bridget came to New Yrok in 1842 aboard the S.S. Europa from Liverpool. With her were her neices Margaret, Mary, Ellen and Julia or Judy. They were then met by her brother Timothy and his nephew James. James was just a toddler. The youngest was Philip, born in New York. I don't know which one of the girls was Philips mother. I think it may have been Mary. Any info would be much appreciated.
Thank you
