the best one I have found so far

I have tried several detergents from iherb and this one works the best as far as removing stains and leaving sheets white. The scent is great and not too strong. I even bought a refill of this

I love that this stuff works and is super concentrated. My clothes come out great. I feel good knowing I am releasing less chemicals in the water supply.
working good.

This is an amazing product. I used to use Seventh Generation but the line has been discontinued at iherb. So I gave this a try and I am glad I did. It cleans well and the smell is wonderful. It is light and clean. I find most detergents leave too much of a smell, which doesn't mix well with all the other products we use: shampoo, conditioner, deodorant, creams, perfumes... This leaves just a light clean smell. It is also ecologically responsible. Will buy again!

Im keeping this one. Works great, so convenient and it has a refill, so less waste. I rarely use softener since I wash so much exercise clothing with lycra/spandex etc (they are damaged by it), so I really wanted something to give my clothes a fresh smell - this one does :)

Each issue contains accessible in-depth analytical pieces, critiques, interviews and academic articles written by fans for fans on all manner of genre cinema – from Hitchcock, Herzog, Bergman and Carpenter to the likes of HG Lewis, Wiseau and Ed Wood, to name but a few. All is presented in a strikingly designed and attention-commanding publication. Paracinema is essentially for those who want to delve deeper into the lurid depths of 'periphery' cinema; each issue contains pieces on a staggering array of movies and genres including, horror, sci-fi, blaxploitation, exploitation, cult, Asian, giallo, pornography and B-movies… If you aren't currently reading Paracinema, it is my duty to inform you that you're seriously missing out.
Think of the amount of times you've been flicking through movie magazines in your local newsagents or book shop and thought how frustrating it was that your favourite types of movies and filmmakers were often neglected or relegated to the sidelines in terms of the amount of articles about them or attention given to them. Think how fantastic it would be to be able to pick up a magazine that was SOLELY about these types of films and filmmakers; and a well written, affordable and lovingly produced one at that.
Recently Paracinema has been given the opportunity to expand; of course it's not as simple as it sounds. Being a labour of love (read: usually in the red) their budget is quite tight. As such, Team Paracinema has proposed a bit of a fundraiser. Think of it as a donation, but instead of a tote bag you get a sweet Warriors t-shirt out of the deal. Times are tough so if you can't afford the shirt, please, please, please just help spread the word by sharing this link everywhere you can and help Paracinema to acquire wider distribution. It is a great magazine that deserves to have a much bigger readership.
For more information about the magazine, why not head over to their site and have a look around. You can also befriend them on Facebook and follow them on Twitter. For a little more insight you can check out an interview with the editor of Paracinema, Christine Makepeace, over at The Blood Sprayer and listen to a podcast with her at The Toxic Graveyard.

By Tiernan Ray
Noted short-seller Jim Chanos was on CNBC's "Fast Money Halftime Report" a short while ago talking with Scott Wapner about short and long picks, and was asked about Apple (AAPL), which he holds as a long position.
Chanos said he's never shorted Apple, even at a high of $705.07 on September 21st of last year, and that he uses it, and Samsung Electronics (005930KS), as a way to offset short positions in personal computer names:
We have Have a small long position in our hedge fund, position in two companies, Samsung and Apple. We have held them against some pretty good-sized short positions. That was a great trade until the fall of last year, been a pretty bad trade this year. Boy oh boy, the PC is getting bad fast. We've never shorted Apple. We did not see the erosion in their business. But on the other hand, our longs are offsetting our short positions. Seeing what we're seeing in the hardware business, in the PC area, we wanted some exposure in mobile and tablet, and we thought Samsung and Apple were the two best places to find that. There's an additional thing. The companies we're short have a glaring hole in their economics, they are not spending ton R&D. Now, Apple's spending on R&D is not as much as it should be. IBM (IBM) and Samsung spend 6% annually on R&D. Dell and HPQ are 2-3%. That difference, on a low-margin business, makes them [Dell and HP] marginally much more profitable, but they are out acquiring R&D, they're capitalizing it, and they're buying some bad companies.
Chanos is still short both Dell (DELL) and Hewlett-Packard (HPQ).
We got out of Dell last fall when it got to $10. But Hewlett, on the Autonomy news, was a reasonably small position. We covered a little bit, but then watched it double on us. But we've been adding a little bit here. Hewlett jumped up a little on earnings, but the secular story has not changed here. The headwinds still face them in every line of their business. Servers are still PCs, remember that. The point is that the hardware guys just increasingly in that space are going to be facing really tough headwinds. I've stayed short, I've shorted into the deal. I could not believe BlackStone and others saw value here. I still don't see what Michael Dell sees. I'm completely scratching my head. I can't make the numbers worth. The cash flow is plummeting, there are real challenges here. What I don't understand is the commercial banks that are lining up to fund the deals. Remember DEC. You could really see the cash go away. The cash is offshore, it has not been taxed, and net of tax liabilities, there is negative working capital. So I am puzzled as to why this is an attractive deal.
Asked about Intel (INTC) and Microsoft (MSFT) and disk drive stocks and all the other corners of tech, he replied, "I think people should be sharpening their pencils when looking at this space, because clearly the surprises will be to the downside in this space going forward."
Bernstein Research's Toni Sacconaghi, an Apple bull, was also on the segment, responding to Chanos's comments.
When asked about Apple, Sacconaghi remarked,
On the positive side, they did a very significant return of cash to shareholders, at the very high end of what investors were hoping. On the flip side, there was evidence of gross margin pressure in the quarter. This is worrisome, because Apple is at the part of its cycle where gross margin should be improving, so to see iPhone margins down in the quarter, is worrisome, and so it points to a mix shift to models in Apple's model that generally have lower gross margin. Principal reason we have a Buy goes to the core of the argument on Apple. As an investment, the bet on Apple is, do you believe that innovation still exists at the company, and that they can create new markets for themselves? If so, then numbers are likely to go up, and sentiment is likely to become more favorable. I believe that's the case.
Sacconaghi was also asked about Chano's view on HP and Dell:
I believe in Jim's characterization of the PC business, there are significant headwinds. Does Michael Dell have the resolve to carry forth the deal or not? The stock was trading at $9 prior to the deal being put on the table. I think you would have significant downside. The stock is saying there's 90% chance the deal goes through, which is why the stock is slightly below the offer price form Dell and Silverlake. On HP, I think it's really predicated on what you think the right value for a company where revenues are likely to decline going forward, but if you deploy capital properly, you can still create economic value. And the question for me is what's the right price for that? While PCs will be a significant headwind going forward, we don't think it undermines the company.

Detune 388 Stroker
Here is a good article to read before you start setting up your distributor. Listen to F-BIRD'88 on setting up your distributor. Your compression ratio is 10.792 and your DCR is 7.860. If the pistons are .010" from the top of the deck at TDC + .041" compressed gasket thickness your quench is .051". If you had set the quench to .040 your static compression would have been 11.097 and the DCR would have been 8.073. Is the Comp Cams valve springs you are using Part# 981-16? If so the installed height should be 1.700", 105 lbs. seat pressure at installed height, 1.250" open height, 273 lbs. open pressure. Stock pushrod length is 7.800" and Edelbrock recommends .100 longer than stock. But it would be best to measure with an adjustable pushrod after you have it set up correctly. The engine should run without pinging if you have the correct springs, pushrods, and the timing curve is right. What brand lifters are you using with the XE268H cam and have they been sitting 8 yrs. too. BTW Edelbrock recommends Champion RC12YC spark plugs for your heads. If you have any weird ignition problems thrash the ProComp distributor.
Detune 388 Stroker
OK, so currently we have 795.56 cc's in the cylinder, 2.12 cc's in the piston deck height, ~64 cc's in the chamber, 9.1 cc's in the gasket and 6.0 cc's in the piston crown. Total- 876.78 cc's. Less cylinder cc's- total 81.22 cc's. Divide 876.78 by 81.22 and find 10.795:1 static compression ratio. Intake valve closes at 42 degrees after bottom dead center, yielding a DCR of 9.143:1 on the KB calculator. So, yeah, I suspect it sounded like a coffee can full of marbles.
Keep the cam and all else except the pistons. Change 'em out for some 18cc dish pistons. SCR will be 9.70:1 and DCR will be 8.23:1. And everyone will live happily ever after.
Huh so the Summit cam won't work. Now its back to changing the pistons. I have looked at Summit and Jegs for pistons and they both only offer 12cc dish pistons in the Speed Pro range. Im not really wanting to spend $600 plus for pistons. Though I will if I have too. Where can I get 18cc dish pistons?
I also think my CR is a little bit higher because I had the Edelbrock heads resurfaced on the last rebuild, because they had been on 3 previous builds and my machinist recommended it.
Cdminter I bought the Comp K-kit. So I used the proper springs and lifters. I did check the install height and it was correct. I also am using .100 longer pushrods for the Edelbrocks. I remember when I put them on my stock 350 I was pissed because I didn't know about the pushrods and had to wait 5 days for them to come in the mail. And then 388 was run periodically during the 8 years just not everyday.
This engine ran perfect when I first installed it back in April of 2004. I did a full rebuild because I got promoted at work and was going to be driving more. But I went and bought an 02 Camaro SS in Nov of 2004, so the Caprice sat in the garage ever since. Its just frustrating that it has got to the point that I can't drive it anymore.
I also have a 64' Chevy stepside that I recently inherited. It sat for 10 years and with new gas, ignition and battery I got it running great. It has a stock 350 with a small RV cam in it. I am just enjoying the stock engine its much easier to tune. That's why I want to detune this engine as well. I guess my Hot Rod blood has thinned a little as I have gotten older.
im confused here. it ran perfect 8 years ago with no changes its rattling after start up? Gas has gotten worse in the last 8 years but it should still be drivable.
Cam that will fix it if it was from cr is simple. Comp magnum 280H its a favorite of many hot rod guys its big its nasty but it should control knocking. But....
If it makes noise when cold its not detonation. its not easy to make an engine knock in the first minute of running unless you got something really wrong.
I am betting its a bent valve hitting the piston if I understand the problem right.
Knocking from high cr is between 1500 and 4000 rpm usally and only during hard acceleration usally. But if it was fine and now its knocking like crazy after setting for 8 years all the time then its not from CR it something much worse. Sounds like a valve got rusted open and bent when the engine was turned over.
Yeah I can see how you are confused. It did sit for the last 8 years except for the month of January in 2010 when I drove it to work due to my Camaro being down. When I stopped driving it that month it started running really bad and I parked it.
I have tried for the last 2 years on and off to find the problem. I started by changing out the original HEI dist(which was worse for wear) with the Procomp and that didn't fix anything. Next I readjusted the valves and that didn't change anything so I thought maybe the gas had gone bad.
I put off dropping the tank for the last year and I finally did it a couple of weeks ago and didn't realize how easy it was. So I started it up again hoping it would run better with new gas but it still has the same problem. Alot of detonation when I try to drive it. So I messed with the timing from 8* to 18* and no luck.
So I thought I would just detune it to more of a stock motor. So thats when I posted on here looking for a more tame or stock cam that would work with my existing parts and changing the pistons to lower compression. (even though I know this engine is a mild combo).
I do have a set of 882 heads I could put on and just change the cam, but I really like the Edelbrocks.
Sorry for the confusion.
Does it stop knocking if you go above 4500 rpm.
Have you changed the oil any metal in it. Do you have a magnet in the oil pan or drain plug. I would drain the oil and take the old filter and cut it in half and see if its filled with junk. Also see if the oil is filled with crap. You can strain it with a shop towel and see if any metal in the rag.
Are the plugs clean. All the same. I think you already said i will look back.
Did you put a full tank of gas in it. If you used just a few gallons go to the race track and buy 104 octane or something better and see if it runs right. I got a feeling its not going to change things. Either you have major oil on top of the pistons issue or a spun bearing making funny noise. A cam and detune might help if the cam is wiped but if it is the cam engine will be filled with scrap metal. I got a feeling exploratory surgery is in your future.
Yeah i cant see any reason it would start knocking like crazy just after it has been setting. A compression check might be a good idea before you take it apart. Seems like something is wrong. I think a cam swap and lower compression might fix the problem but i think you will find the problems when you take the pistons out and check over the heads. It is very possible that it spun a bearing or had some other oil related issue after being sitting for so long and starting up dry. But i cant say anything for sure with out crawling under the hood and hearing it first hand.
I hear what you are saying. I did change the plugs. Did a compression check this past week and all cylinders were between 180-190 psi. I havent changed the oil in a long time because the engine only has about 3,000 miles on it. As far as going above 4500 rpm it won't go that high in gear right now! And I only put about 3 gallons of gas in the tank. The tank looked really good inside I was really surprised for being 33 years old.
I will drain the oil and cut the filter apart as you said and see if there are any signs.
When I put it in gear and hold my foot on the brake and push on the gas, that is when I can hear the valves rattling as I call it, or real bad detonation.
The weird thing is it does not blow any smoke from either tail pipe. The last time when my cam went flat in my last engine it was blowing smoke like a train and idling very rough.
When it is idling it runs fine and you can blip the throttle and it doesn't sound like there is any mechanical issues.
Thats one of the disadvantages to a lopey cam. Sometimes its hard to diagnose if you have a ignition, vacumn leak or what is wrong.
I don't guess it might have a rod starting to knock?? Just a thought, Is the old pressure steady? Does it drop when the engine warms up?? Just a thought , It sounds like its very loud, And some times you can here it on both sides?? I would drain the oil and cut the fiter open and just look,
Bodiebyes it has good oil pressure. 80psi when cold and about 60-65psi when warmed up.
I cut the oil filter open today. I didn't see any large pieces of metal in the filter media. However the oil at the bottom which was about a 1/2" deep had a metallic tint to it. Very small particles. I have never cut a filter open is this normal? The oil I drained out of the filter before cutting it open was fine just a little dirty.
Looking for advice from here. If the small particles are normal, then I am going to put a set of rebuilt 882 heads I have on and change the came to a small RV. Make it basically into a stock engine.
Heads resurfaced
How much did you take off the heads? Did you use a pushrod checker to check what length you need? Too long , wrong angle, Nosiey? Just a thought? Man I have been there chasing Gremlins!!! Taking the performance out of the is not the awsner. It has to be timming related. Take the plugs out. take the valve covers off. Turn the engine over by hand untill you get to top dead center. It will push air out the number one plug. Both the rockers on number one will be loose. Number 6 they should have tension on them. if Number one has tension . you are on Number 6. Rotate 180 degrees. Balanance should be on zero. Rotate it to 20 degrees before. Check where distubter is pointing. Line it to # 1. put evrything back together and crank it. Timming should be set. Thats how I do it. and It should crank and run. You might have to play withthe timming,But it should be close. I like to set the valves on cynder at a time. Just how you got # 1 up turn the engine by hand, keep the plugs out . When the exhaust valve stats to open. Set the intake, Back it off till loose , the tighten till you feel Zero play the turn it a half a turn. Exhaust valve, Rotate the engine untill the intake valve stats to close. Then set the exhaust the same way. I know its time consuming, But it will be right. I only run soild cams so it set the lash like this. An Old timer showed me this way and its the only way I do it. I works evrytime. Check the push rods and Balancer first, You'll get it. Don't go back stock!! It sucks!! If you are worried about compression try a thick headgasket first, I would. As long as you are under 10-10.5:1 you should be ok. Especally if you have alumnium Heads. Just a thought. Good luck!!
Wel you will almost always find some metal in the filter and oil but usally a very small amount. Something is out of whack. Changing the cam will only solve the issue if the current cam is bad. Same for the heads.
At this point sounds like you need another set of eyes on the issue. Got any freinds that are good techs or work in a shop. A fresh look at the problem will usally solve the issue.
I had a crazy electrical problem. I could not solve for the life of me. Took it to a shop and they messed it it for an hour then pulled the engine and went of the wires until the found the issue. Bad connector. I had never pulled apart because it looked good and not related to the issue. Once thye got everything apart the problem was appeaernt and they had the car fixed in a few hours. I spent a week testing crap. Thats when i decided i hate cars with comuters. Especially if its a ford with anti lock breaks that go out randomly. And when it does you can not push the peddle hard enpugh to stop the car. What an awesome design. When it fails you have no breaks. Ford os also the only car i ever owned where the floor mat could get stuck under the gas pedal and keep it floored after you let off.
So another pair of eyes at this point would help alot. That new view on the problem my result in a quick fix. It is not right that it is knocking all of a sudden for no reason out of the blue. There must be another problem. The way you described the issue. I have not seen any type of detenation. That bad before.

Dear God... my GNOME2 setup is now a cocktail of Debian Sid packages, Debian Experimental packages, garnome, and jhbuild. This is getting silly but it is much faster — as I don't have to build the core libraries myself but simply use the Debian packages. Details of this procedure are on my web space. (well, will be when I put it there)
GNOME2 is really looking polished now — Gman, Calum et al are really working hard in #ui-review cleaning up the interface.
My DebianUpdate script is complete UI-wise but is missing one function — the ability to analyse the apt repository and decide what updates are required... Has anyone out there used Python with the apt libraries?

How To Communicate Science in the 21st Century
Posted On July 2, 2012 by Carmen Yeung
Scientific inquiry is about the pursuit of knowledge to improve our world, so why is it so hard to communicate information that can help everyone? Actually, it doesn't have to be – just follow these three steps I learned at the Science of Science Communication Colloquium:
1) Meet your audience where they are. It's easy to assume the more someone knows about a scientific issue, the more they'll care about it. However, there's little empirical evidence to support this theory. Other factors, such as age, education, political party, religion, etc., may influence a person more than their understanding of an issue. You can help a person better understand a scientific concept, but unless you can appeal to their emotions or something they already care about, knowledge alone may not increase their support.
So, how does a scientist communicate effectively? Continue reading »

Doc Rivers [1] spoke at length before Friday's game at with the Atlanta Hawks [2] about how teams are preparing for defensive star Avery Bradley [3], how much the Celtics [4] have been playing their "Manwich" zone defense and whether or not he's paying attention to the Eastern conference standings.
Rivers said he also doesn't spend much time looking at the Eastern conference standings. The Celtics came in Friday at 33-27 and in seventh place in the Eastern conference. But it's quite the log-jam in the middle of the East. The Celtics were just a game behind the fifth-place Hawks and just 4 1/2 games behind the second-seeded Knicks. The Knicks, Pacers, Nets, Bulls, Hawks and Celtics are separated by just five games.
"I can't even tell you what our exact record is," said Rivers. "But I know it's close with everybody else's record. That's how much I look at it… I think later in the year, I may at [look at] times. Right now, we just have to keep getting better, so that's my focus."
Of course, the Hawks and Celtics have met in the past in the playoffs, with the Celtics coming out on top in 2008 and last year.
"I think both teams understand where we are both at — that all our games now are important," Rivers said. "I don't think there's another game this year that's not important. It's just that close with everybody. That's great. That's what I said I liked about the way we did the All-Star break — we've been doing that lately anyways — but I just like it when you come out of the break, it's a sprint. And everybody kinda is in it, and it's good."
As for teams gearing up for Bradley's defense, Rivers said he can sense it more and more now coming into games.
"You know it's coming," Rivers said. "I'm sure they're warned by it. Some guys do pretty well and some guys don't. It'd be no fun."
Why aren't there more players like Bradley in the NBA?
"Because they don't have the ability," Rivers said. "You have to have great instincts, great speed. It takes a lot of things. You can't just [say] I'm going to be a great defender because if it were just that, it would be more [players playing great defense].
"It is a lot [of desire] but you just have to have great everything, great feel, great feet, great instincts, great strength. It takes a lot."
Speaking of defense, Rivers gave great insight to his use of the zone defense, schemed in part by assistant Mike Longabardi.
"It's been good. We just keep running it. We don't do it for long periods. We have in the last couple [games]. A lot of that has been situational – Kevin was in foul trouble or JET was struggling defending so were trying to hide him in some ways but a lot of times a team scores five times in a row, throw a zone on them twice and then get back man just to get them out of rhythm."
Meanwhile, Rivers said it was a "bummer" that his son Austin Rivers suffered a broken right hand and is likely done for the year with the New Orleans Hornets [5].

COLUMBUS – Tupelo's basketball teams lost two heartbreakers on Friday night in their Division 2-6A openers against Columbus.
In the girls' game, guard Jaleigha Polk missed a short jumper in the final seconds as the scrambling Lady Wave departed as a disappointed one-point loser, 50-49, to the Lady Falcons.
"We had the shot we wanted at the end; she had a clear look," Tupelo coach Matt Justice said. "But, that shot didn't lose the game for us."
Tupelo (9-7, 0-1) trailed high-scoring Kiki Patterson and the Lady Falcons 30-20 at halftime. The Dandy Dozen guard scored 23 of her game-high 31 points in the first half.
"We were timid, nervous," Justice said. "It took us to the third quarter to settle down. I was proud of our effort. This is a tough place to play."
It was Columbus (8-5, 2-0) who got rattled in the third quarter. Tupelo rallied with press and trapping defense to tie the score at 35-35.
The Lady Wave held Patterson to just one field goal in the second half, but it was a big one – a layup with 1 minute, 38 seconds remaining to give Columbus a 50-43 lead.
Tupelo answered behind the tough inside play of Braxton Thomas, who scored five of her team-high 14 points in the final two minutes, but fell short.
(B) COLUMBUS 42,TUPELO 37: The Golden Wave (9-8, 0-1) was in striking distance the entire fourth quarter of the defensive struggle, but connected on just one field goal in the final 2:16 – a layup by Antonio Green that cut the Falcons' lead to 35-33.
Columbus (8-5, 1-1) clinched the win with five free throws by Brandon Porter in the final 38 seconds. He finished with 13 points while Devin Berry led with 15.
Green's 9 and Quinn Tiggs' 8 led Tupelo.
"We couldn't make the most elementary of plays," Tupelo coach Jeff Norwood said. "We didn't make some plays when it was time to make them."
Tupelo was held to four points in the third quarter.

On August 16, 1864, at the age of 26, my great-great grandfather, Darius J. Pettis, left his job as a clerk in the city of Winona and enlisted as a Private in the 11th Regiment of the Minnesota Infantry. At the time of his enlistment, his wife was less than two months away from giving birth to their second child. While Darius served, Katharine and the children stayed with her father, Ezekiel Efner, in Lyndon, Wisconsin.
Darius served in Company I. He was promoted to Sergeant on September 6, three weeks after mustering in. He served in that capacity until mustering out the following June 26, 1865.
Rufus Davenport's Narrative of the Eleventh Regiment, below, is a very readable account of the experiences Darius shared during his service.

Brilliant service, brilliant people. I cannot find fault and I will be back for my next service and MOT, and anything else in between!
Very good, would recommend and use again!
I would definitely recommend this garage to anyone. They go out of their way to provide a first class service, there really is no need to go elsewhere.
Great service and communication. Happy to give them my business.
Very happy, did a good job
Not happy at all with the way I was treated. I was told that the head gasket needed replacing and that my car may be dangerous to drive. I phoned a male colleague for advise and he said not to accept what I had been told. I have since had the car further check by another garage and they said that Citroen -and Peugeot- cars over a certain age do tend to leak a little oil and so long as I keep an eye on the oil level I shouldn't have a problem. The other garage also pointed out that the passenger side wheel arm needs replacing -which was discovered on the test drive they did. I asked for a quote for a 'full service' and it appears that this has not been carried out.
kept me informed of progress. good job done.
Couldn't be happier, did a great job and would use again.
I would like to book my car In for the repairs on my failed MOT. I was told that re-test are free. I would like Equip Autos, Duckworth Street, Darwen to carry out the repairs. Can somebody from the branch get In touch with me to book my car YH04 LGG Alfa Romeo 147 Lusso. The date of my MOT test was 15 April 2017. My Tel no Is 07923651672.
Great job - Fast and efficient service!
Excellent service, and really friendly. They are grest at looking after customers. I've been back for further jobs on my car. I would definately recommend Equipe.
came in knowing i needed a tyre due to the tracking being out. had the quote for the tyre and tracking. car was checked over and a problem with the nearside steering arm was identified. i was given the oppotunity to see this for myself and agreed with it needing doing. the quote for the additional parts and labour was exellent and the work was carried out in a timely manner to a high standard. very pleasant staff no pushy sales will use again and would recommend them to anyone
Great garage and great customer service. Would definitely use them again..they spend time explaining everything to you and we're very honest..not trying to use the scare tactics to get more work and money out of you as I know other garages do. Couldn't be happier. Thanks
Power and Prestige provided excellent service and did what they said they'd. Kept in regular contact whist the repairs were ongoing and I received a courtesy call after the work had been carried out to make sure I was happy with the performance of the car. Will certainly use them again and will recommend them to all my family and friends.
Excellent service, friendly staff, liked that they showed the replaced parts. Would definitely use them again and highly recommend them.
Used power and Prestige, awesome service from start to finish. Kept me updated and the work was carried out very professionally at the best price around. Great bunch of guys and highly recommended! Five star all the way!
"Been in buisness 40 years.over 1300 customers on database from 1 car to fleets,"
Excellent service great comunication fitted a new dual mass flywheel new clutch plate and a clutch release bearing they did the job in 7 hours and it now runs perfect thanks very much the cost was £600 which was cheaper than any other quote I had will definatly be using again

St. John's — Two 20-year-old men from Bell Island have sentenced to 900 days in prison as the result of events the judge calls a "one-day crime spree."
Wayne Boone and Christian Jenkins appeared in St. John's provincial court on Tuesday to hear Judge Michael Madden hand down the sentences.
Family and friends of the offenders cried and hugged one another after both men were led away from the courtroom in handcuffs.
On Aug. 30, both men were involved in several assaults and robberies on Bell Island. Madden said their action were largely fuelled by alcohol consumption, while noting mental health issues were also a factor.
Boone was also being sentenced on a separate assault matter on Feb. 25. His sentence on that matter will run concurrent to his sentence for the Aug. 30 incidents.
Neither of the men applied for bail and have been remanded in custody for 111 days. Madden gave them 1 1/2 days credit for time served, meaning they have another 734 days remaining on their sentences — a little more than two years in total.
For more on this story, read Wednesday's edition of The Telegram.

The system serves to protect and save precious natural resources while also making good economic sense. LEED also verifies environmental performance, occupant health and financial return.
Cascade and Windham halls in Mountainview College were designed to achieve LEED Certification for energy use, lighting, water and material use and also incorporated a variety of other sustainable strategies. LEED Certification for the two buildings is based on a number of green design and construction features that positively impact the project itself and the broader community, including:
• site selection and development
• water-efficient landscaping
• use of local and regional materials
• post-construction and pre-occupancy indoor air quality management
• the ability to control building systems, daylight and views
"Our efforts to preserve the environment and conserve energy have enabled us to attain this LEED Certification," said President Lois B. DeFleur. "Of particular note, the buildings' mechanical systems and thermal performance exceed the code-mandated, Governor-instituted minimums for energy efficiency. We're proud of this recognition and we will continue our commitment to protect our environment and conserve natural resources in future projects."
Additional features that enabled Binghamton University to achieve LEED Certification for these buildings include the promotion of storage and recycling of materials, use of low-emitting materials, storm water management and indoor pollutant controls. The project also received recognition for its enhancements to the buildings' environments and for care in protecting the spotted salamanders in the nearby Binghamton University Nature Preserve.

Speaking at the Goldman Sachs tech conference on Wednesday, Pandora CEO Joe Kennedy discussed the digital music service's growth and its increasing movement into terrestrial radio's advertising space. Kennedy said that Pandora sees 2013 as "enabling us to accelerate our penetration of the traditional radio market," reports Radio Ink. He also spoke about terrestrial radio's lengthier spot breaks, calling them "crushing," and noting that most ads on Pandora are just 15 or 30 seconds, adding up to a one minute spot set in total. Kennedy said that Pandora's ads are more powerful and hit their targets more effectively as part of shorter stop sets. Pandora currently airs just one or two ads per hour, though the company expects to gradually increase that number.
Kennedy also told Goldman Internet analyst Heath Terry that Pandora plans to have salespeople in the top 25 markets in 2013, up from just the top ten. Pandora is aiming for larger advertisers as well, not just local businesses. The company also will take advantage of its data on each user, which includes individuals' email, birth year and zip code.
According to Forbes, Kennedy also made multiple references to "disrupting" traditional terrestrial radio, in both listening and advertising. Kennedy said that currently almost 80 percent of Pandora listening time is done on mobile devices. He also discussed the issue of royalty costs, saying that while the company believes it pays an unfairly high cost, Pandora can still build their business despite the current rates.

About Jeff Masters
Cat 6 lead authors: WU cofounder Dr. Jeff Masters (right), who flew w/NOAA Hurricane Hunters 1986-1990, & WU meteorologist Bob Henson, @bhensonweather
By: Dr. Jeff Masters , 2:04 PM GMT on September 12, 2011
Tropical Storm Maria continues to struggle with moderate wind shear of 15 - 20 knots that is preventing the storm from organizing. The center of circulation lies fully exposed to view this morning, with satellite loops showing that all of Maria's heavy thunderstorms lie to the east of Maria's center. Spiral bands from Maria are bringing heavy rains to the Virgin Islands and northern Lesser Antilles, as seen on long-range radar out of Puerto Rico and Martinique radar. Radar-estimated rainfall amounts of three inches have occurred in the Virgin Islands; 0.94" has fallen in St. Thomas, which experienced a wind gust of 39 mph at 9:14 am local time.
Maria's center has been tracking more to the west than the forecast has been calling for, but since the center is so far from the heaviest thunderstorms, I wouldn't be surprised to see the center reform more to the east or east-northeast later today. The models are in unanimous agreement that Maria should resume a more northwesterly motion later today, and turn to the north by Tuesday. The trough of low pressure that is bringing hostile wind shear to Maria is predicted to slowly weaken over the next few days, which may allow the storm to grow to Category 1 hurricane strength by Wednesday. Intensification will be hampered by the fact that Maria will be passing over the cold water wake left by Hurricane Katia, though. On Wednesday, Maria will be making its closest approach to Bermuda. If Maria does manage to organize into a hurricane, Bermuda could see an 8-hour period of sustained winds of 35 - 40 mph beginning near 2 pm local time on Wednesday. Most of the models show that Maria will brush or strike Newfoundland, Canada on Friday morning. Heavy rains will be a flooding threat to the west of where Maria passes, and wind damage from high winds of 50 - 60 mph will be a concern to the east of where the center goes.

Extratropical Storm Katia pounding Britain
Hurricane Katia brushed by Newfoundland, Canada on Saturday, and made the transition from a tropical system to a powerful extratropical storm. Extratropical Storm Katia maintained strong winds of 50 - 65 mph as it crossed the Atlantic, and is now lashing the northern British Isles with high winds and heavy rain. At 1 pm local time, the center of ex-Katia was over northern Scotland, and Malin Head, Ireland on the north coast of Ireland, was experiencing sustained winds of 49 mph. Winds in western Scotland were also high, with Aonach Mor recording sustained winds of 51 mph at 12:50 pm local time. The UK Met Office is warning that wind gusts up to 80 mph can be expected in Scotland today, as well as flooding rains of 2 - 4 inches. Ex-Katia's strong winds will likely cause significant tree damage and power failures across Northern Ireland and Scotland today.

The center of Extratropical Storm Katia is marked by an "L", and winds in excess of 50 knots (58 mph, purple triangles) were occurring to the southwest of the center, near the west coast of Ireland.

Britain's hurricane history
Hurricanes that transition to powerful extratropical storms hit the British Isles several times per decade, on average. In September 2006, two major hurricanes named Gordon and Helene transitioned to strong extratropical storms that hit the British Isles. Only once since accurate records began in 1851 has an actual hurricane with full tropical characteristics hit Europe. This happened on September 16, 1961, when Category 1 Hurricane Debbie hit northwestern Ireland. Wind gusts reached 106 mph at Ballykelly and 104 mph at Tiree and Snaefill, and coastal radio stations reported the airwaves were jammed with calls for help from small ships and fishing craft. Eleven people were killed and 50 injured in the storm. The only other tropical cyclone recorded to have hit Europe since 1851 was Hurricane Vince of 2005, which hit southern Spain as a tropical depression on October 11, 2005. Historical documents also suggest a hurricane hit Spain on October 29, 1842.
As reported by UK Met Office forecaster John Hammond in a post on the BBC 23 degrees blog, Britain has been affected at least eight times in the past twenty years by extratropical storms that were once tropical storms or hurricanes. The most recent one was Hurricane Bill of 2009, which hit Ireland on August 25 with sustained winds of 45 mph. Bill was a Category 4 hurricane northeast of the Lesser Antilles five days prior. In 2006, a record three extratropical storms that had once been tropical cyclones hit Britain:
Extratropical Storm Alberto, which had been a strong tropical storm that hit the Florida Panhandle, hit northern Ireland and Scotland as an extratropical storm with 35 mph winds.
Extratropical Storm Gordon hit Ireland on September 21, 2006, with sustained winds of 65 mph. Gordon brought record warm temperatures as tropical air pushed north across the UK, and also strong winds that brought down power lines in Northern Ireland. Wind gusts to 60 mph (97 km/h) occurred in the Isles of Scilly off the southwest coast, and 81 mph (130 km/h) on the mainland.
Extratropical Storm Helene hit Northwestern Ireland on September 27, 2006, with sustained winds of 45 mph.
Figure 3. Path of Hurricane Lili of 1996, which caused $420 million in damage to the U.K. as an extratropical storm.
Other post-tropical cyclones that have the U.K. in the past twenty years include Hurricanes Isaac and Leslie of 2000, Hurricane Karl of 1998, and Hurricane Lili of 1996. The most severe of these storms was Extratropical Storm Lili, which hit Ireland on October 28, 1996, with sustained winds of 65 mph. Lili caused $420 million in damage (2011 dollars) in the U.K. According to Wikipedia, Lili produced a 92 mph (148 km/h) gust at Swansea, South Wales, while bringing a four ft (1.20 m) storm surge that inundated the River Thames. In Somerset, 500 holiday cottages were severely damaged. A United States oil drilling platform, under tow in the North Sea, broke loose during the storm and nearly ran aground at Peterhead. On the Isle of Wight, a sailing boat was beached at Chale Bay; luckily all five occupants were rescued. It was the most damaging storm to have struck the United Kingdom since the Great Storm of 1987, which killed 22 and did $660 million in damage (1996 dollars.) However, Lili also broke a four-month drought over southwest England.
Elsewhere in the tropics
Several of the models predict the development of a tropical depression or strong tropical disturbance 4 - 5 days from now off the coast of Africa. The NOGAPS model is predicting the Western Caribbean could see the development of a strong tropical disturbance 6 - 7 days from now.
I'll have an update Tuesday morning.

Binghamton University professor to receive NIH Keller award
Linda P. Spear, distinguished professor of psychology at Binghamton University, has been selected to receive the 2005 National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism's Mark Keller Award and to deliver the accompanying lecture, "Adolescence: Neurobehavioral characteristics, differential alcohol sensitivities and intake," at 1:30 p.m. Thursday, November 3, in the Masur Auditorium of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in Bethesda, Maryland.
Spear's lab has published landmark studies on the effects of alcohol on the developing brain. Her work centers, in particular, on alcohol sensitivity and use during adolescence, the age when many young people first drink alcohol. Spear's investigations use animal models to identify factors that might contribute to adolescents' propensity to experiment with alcohol and to determine why this age group seems to be at particular risk for alcohol's deleterious effects. Her findings are helping scientists understand how alcohol affects the developing brain and ultimately how drinking during adolescence may contribute to alcohol-related problems later in life.
"I am honored to receive this award and am excited that alcohol research in adolescence is receiving so much recognition," said Spear.
The Keller award is given annually to "an outstanding alcohol researcher who has made significant and long-term contributions to our understanding of how alcohol affects the body and mind, how we can prevent and treat alcohol abuse and alcoholism, and how today's scientific advancements can provide hope for tomorrow."

yup, back then, the healthcare reform that was under discussion was Medicare. Reagan was telling us what would happen to our country if it became a reality.

What form of tin ear were you listening with? Every one of those predictions came true. What the hell do you think we are living with? If it isn't socialism, what do you call it?
I don't expect all the beliefs of a conservative to mean much to you, but when they don't, why comment on them and remove all doubt about your ignorance?
All this 'hope and change' really has you up in arms. Keep drinking the koolaid, Buzz. You and the other believers in Roger Moore, Barney Frank, Al Franken and the other Fascist followers are having a heyday. Pardon me if I wonder if your great grandkids will be able to afford it.

The perfect gift for any art enthusiast:Memberships start at just $85.
NARRATOR: The viewpoint in John Sloan's Backyards, Greenwich Village is casual, almost accidental. It offers us a view of everyday life in the city; a girl looking out a window, children playing in the backyard.REBECCA ZURIER: Beyond that fence at the back of the yards, we look to see more buildings, more yards and all across the top laundry hanging from a clothesline, which is also something that you seen in a lot of Sloan's art. You're looking at an undressed up part of the city.
NARRATOR: Rebecca Zurier is an Associate Professor of Art History at the University of Michigan. She's written several books on the Ashcan School.REBECCA ZURIER: This is pretty typical for Sloan, who said he wanted to paint life in the city; but the neighborhoods that he was most drawn to were the lower middle class areas, upper working class areas, working people who still lived in very close communication with each other.NARRATOR: Sloan was a socialist. He celebrated the life of working people in cartoons and illustrations in various publications, including the radical magazine "The Masses."REBECCA ZURIER: Sloan, like a number of his friends from Philadelphia who became known as the Ashcan school, started out as a sketch artist for newspapers. And that kind of formed where he eventually looked for subject matter as an artist, but it also informed the way he handled his materials. He kind of draws with paint, a very light quick line, that in the newspapers would have suggested spontaneity and things happening in a very casual way and then carries over to the way he handles paint. In a way he's suggesting, as many more avant-garde artists among his peers were suggesting, that things change quickly in a city and you can't really pin it down.

Well that depends on you. These young guys and gals work their Arse's off for little pay and free time.
They are committed to the sport and the dogs. Most of the big Pro's do pretty well and get most of the credit
for their kennel. But behind the scenes we know that these assistants are doing alot of the dirty work.
So make the effort to take them a card and some cash for the Holidays, it will mean alot!!!
I was going to take one young man duck hunting in the Arkansas green timber after Christmas.
Just found out yesterday, he has vehicle problems and can't afford to repair his truck and come hunting.
I feel really bad for him, I know he was all jacked up.
Make the effort to show them you care!!!

Driving Assistant.
The feature Driving Assistant combines the camera-based systems Lane Departure Warning and approach control and person warning with light city braking function.
The Lane Departure Warning detects lane markings and alerts the driver to an unintentional lane change at speeds above approx. 70 km/h by means of vibrations in the steering wheel and a visual warning in the instrument cluster. The warning is not activated when the lane change is deliberate, i.e. when the indicator is
turned on.
While the approach control warning with light city braking function detects vehicles, the person warning with light city braking function reacts to pedestrians. If a vehicle ahead brakes heavily, the BMW responds immediately when the approach control warning is activated. The system operates in steps. A warning symbol is first displayed, then the symbol begins blinking and an acoustic warning is emitted, and finally the brakes are lightly applied (when travelling at speeds under 60 km/h). The person warning operates at speeds between 10 and 60 km/h and emits a single-level warning in the event of acute danger. If the system warns of a potential collision, the brakes are simultaneously preconditioned for a faster response. In the event of an emergency, the system applies the brakes. This function can be limited by darkness and fog.

I love how HTS put up the TFU troopers, which were the only figures I haven't been able to find from that wave, right after I had to leave for work. I had a feeling that they would show up too.
Heads up!
Evo and Jump Troopers available on HTS but you had better act quickly!
I just got them myself. I've noticed that often times when I miss out on HTS restocks during the morning/afternoon, they often restock the hot figures of that day at nighttime.
Aw heck, I couldn't help myself. I just ordered another set of FU clones and Shadow Guard.
Just a follow-up- the entire TFU wave was up on HTS before noon today, and they were still up when I checked 2 minutes ago. Damaged Vader is on the first page (with 27 on a page), the rest seem to be lumped on the third page
except Rahm Kota, who shows up on the fourth page. Interesting to note that McSolo (with coin) is still available.
Happy Hunting!
Since TFU is the last TAC wave, I'm wondering if they won't ship as many to retail stores- which is why I'm buying them up online while they last- and for less than retail price!
I thought the KotCS Indy Lego sets would be held back until 5/1 like the Hasbro figures but I guess not. I still can't believe that since selling out of them in Jan., the Glendale Lego store has not restocked on Indy lego sets while Target and TRU and WM have them in abundance.

|Guest curator, Louky Keijsers, has assembled this exhibition of
international video / film artists whose works address the faith in, but also
the loss of, a belief in Utopia. They address issues of identity, gender, and
sexuality, in a manner that reflects the psychoanalytic ideas of Jacques Lacan
-- and how they apply to the "uncanny magic of film images." These images
maintain a distance, no matter how close they are. As the critic Georges
Didi-Huberman notes, "something has appeared from out of the hidden, but its
manifestation will stubbornly retain every trace of distance or depth that
condemns it to eternally work at concealment."
A speculum is an instrument for dilating a bodily passage or cavity, throwing light within them in order to examine the interior; or a mirror--especially one made of polished metal--for use as an optical instrument. Keijsers sees art as a similar tool which functions as "the practical component of philosophy" in exploring the concealed, the esoteric, and the deepest recesses of human experience.
The related October Series - Engaging the Speculum: Film/Video/Media will present speakers on the manifold threads of discourse about media and meaning in reference to our past and future.
This exhibition and related events were organized through the cooperation of : Richard Weiner, dean of arts and sciences, R.I. College; Thomas Erben, director, Thomas Erben Gallery, New York; Louky Keijsers, independent curator and art-historian; Dennis O'Malley, director, Bannister Gallery; Bret Rothstein, associate professor of art and director of Film Studies, R.I. College; and Claudia Springer, professor of English and director of Media Studies, R.I. College.
