8 years, I got the proportion valve off a 73 bonneville
It is a cast iron. I put some disks on front and 9" rear 3.70, ford master cylinder. worked for years. 1940 coupe (pictures) on profile. I had a 305 with saginaw overdrive. Now, I have a 500 cadillac with TH400 and beefed up the MMII, boxes. As orginal as I can inside and out.
I had to replace the ford master to a corvette master. The front was working fine, until when I rolled on a rack to alignment, it was raining that day and I was scared becaused the man working on it. So I went very slowly, the rear was wanting to go (I realized no brakes). The guy working on it, I had the front disks wanted to stop (ECI) 5/1/2" for the 40 16" originals all around.
The master seemed to work. The rear would with a fight just to get hydraulic to the rearend. I stomped on the brakes, it is manual. that's my Footstomper name.
A friend told me to go to the junkyard, we have snow, so I got in the garage and pulled the proportion valve last night. I cleaned it as the best I could, I used some air through orfications. The rear side had a fitting and on the front side had a pin, I did tapped alittle. The rear side came out pipe brass with a "O" ring. I got a allen wrench and wd-40, I cleaned it and air began moving. I put all the lines (about all the bonneville had, at least 6 lines). It was cold, and I will have to try it today. I have the car up on stands, and when someone to look at the right tire whether if it stops (I hope), if it keeps rolling with make me mad!
I agree with latech And what exactly are you working on ? Just go out and but a new proportion valve for it and bleed all the brakes like latech said. And if you have rear drum brakes after bleeding the system adjust the rear brakes till you have a slight drag on them when turning them by hand. Let us know how it goes and if you get them fixed. JMO
dont hammer on it as brass is soft and you could deform it and render it junk.
If you want to attempt to try an re center the valve you should loosen the line on the master cylinder for the system that is working and then go in and take a quick sharp stab at the brake pedal, listen for the valve to click, have the key on so you can see light warning light go out.You may have to jab it several times to get it to move. when you do then tighten up the lines and CAREFULLY bleed the system.Bleed the rear firststarting with the passenger rear and then the other and then go to the front. Do the pass first then the drivers side, pumping can sometimes introduce air in the system so try to gravity bleed it, justopen up the bleeder and let er go till all the air is out.
By the way is the brake system for a 40 ford or is it from the 70 ish caddy donor car? The 40 ford wont have a prop valve only a junction. If your not getting fluid in the back then either a rubber line is plugged/blocked or a steel line is flattened out. Better check into that
Proportioning Valve is stuck
Brakes work great on the front, the rear is nearly any brakes at all. I jacked all wheels. I crank it, put it in to gear and with all my might to stop the rear one wonder right will not stop. Is anything to take the proportioning off and clean it? A friend told you could hammer on it, sometimes the little ball and spring may ever work again. I pulled the speed bleeders and I got a little hydraulic to the rear. If all that, I may have to buy a new Proportioning valve. If the valve starts right, I then will have a stop lights too. I also bought a Tractor Supply temp sender, the electrical original just would not work. The temp modified the housing for the 40 cluster with 3" (?) It looks just like the rest of the rest. It does just great.
I am concerned about the valve, I have two lines to front, and rear with the same.

Usurpation seems to be a recent topic. Dwight Magnum has written at lest one article on the subject. I've observed it a few times. When it's happening it looks like a cross between a swarm and robbing. The swarm seems to be moving into an occupied hive, but the hive is often fighting with the bees from the swarm. Queenlessness does seem to be an added trigger. I have watched these in progress in Massachusetts, Nebraska and Arizona. I've also seen where it seems that one nuc, going into winter, has moved in with another nuc going into winter, but I did not see it actually happen. In these cases, all I know is the nuc box that had a small colony in it is empty and the nuc next door has a lot more bees.My guess is that this happens a lot and has been happening for a long time, but has only recently been noticed or documented. It is often blamed on African genetics, but the VA (Dwight), NE and MA ones were all EHB.
There was no threat from SHB anywhere I observed it.

Hello guys,
Every year I go pheasant & duck hunting on a farm near Aberdeen SD. We didn't get the lottery this year for Non-resident waterfowler. We are still planning on going pheasant hunting but we were thinking about driving up to ND near Oakes ND and try to hunt ducks in the morning and then run back to hunt pheasants in SD. I was wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction for hunting duck near Oakes ND. Would it be worth it? Any information would be great. I would even swap a hunting in PA or FL. Thanks for your help. and shoot straight.

It's The Small Things That Count
What is passion? First, you discover something — maybe a sport, a hobby, or even a problem in your community. The "something" (whatever it is) snatches a bit of your soul. Without the "something," you feel a little empty — you're hooked. You can't stop playing the sport, doing the hobby, or pondering solutions to the community issue. Passion drives us. It feels so good to do what you love.
My "something" is creating teddy bears and recruiting other bear-makers. Before you laugh at me, hear me out: in 2010, I was hospitalized for anorexia. The visiting hours in the eating disorder unit were limited. At night, I wished that the doctors would release me. I wanted to be home again. While I was in the hospital, I received stuffed …

Mustang 671, in watching this thread, I think that F-bird is just trying to make sure you are aware of some of the stuff that he has knowledge of.
I have not seen anything he posted that was not correct.
You have a lot of "bells and whistles" on your rig that, for sure, will create a bunch of headaches and destroyed parts if not careful.
The "hyper vs. forged" decision is liable to give you pin bosses pulled out of the pistons, seen too many of them happen that way. And a huffer will really put lots of heat into the crown / ring pack area, adding to the problem.
He suggested changing the oil, most likely because it sounded like the raw fuel has most likely gone past the rings and thinned the oil.
Look . . . . , nobody wants to see you have problems with your ride. But you seem to be sort of hard-headed to fixing the possible issues you are seeing.
So . . . . . just how far of a road trip is this Spain you write of???
Take care, K

mustang 671 (12-12-2012)
regarding the oil- again that was took incorrectly. i have only recently changed the oil as i had a big over fueling issue and wrong timing , so i ditched the oil and filter and replaced it with millers running in oil . my question on that was -- is millers running in oil ( ie forget the brand - its a mineral based running in oil ) ok for taking to the dyno for them to tune and do a bit of running in. seems silly to ask as its called running in oil. but wanted some opinions on it ??
trust me im no hard headed dude , quite the opposite, i am a carpenter/builder. i have built the whole thing myself using different people to make , weld , design and fit bits to get to where i am . eveyone thought i was mad and alot of people said it wouldnt work etc . but its running and its finished , however i am no fool and know the serious part is the engine tuning running in and to keep det at bay .
regarding the running in . i personally have a good friend who builds and tunes gp250 track bikes 2 stroke and 4 stroke super bikes . he also agrees that he preferes the method of cuttting in the rings as quick as possible and not to run in a engine as manufactures reccomend, ie 1000 or so miles , so when i go to the dyno i am intersted on peoples opinions of the dyno guys saying they can load up the back wheels and run the engine in for 30 mins or so.
whats your thoughts?
thanks shaun
i know of one engine builder who put a polishing compund down a bore on a mclaren m1 engine before a race as they wouldnt of been able to of raced it as that bore was low on compression. it fixed it for the race, its also the same car from your neck of the woods . 1960s mclaren m1 my client has recently bought it. chassis number 1 of 66 , it started some first race in 66 over there aparently. nice motor . has a 350 chevy in it.
Actually the engine could be broken in on the dyno. But if you choose to drive it to do the break in (I see nothing wrong w/that, I have done it since day one), be sure to use engine braking to slow the car after running it up. This helps the process.
Good luck and I hope it performs on the dyno as good as it looks.

mustang 671 (12-13-2012)
i will be trailering it to the dyno as its not road legal yet , and also agee its better to have it broke in a bit on the dyno . i do get worried about the lack of air flow and pressure that the dyno cannot replicate , at 60 mph the air flow and pressure surley will make a differnce compared to the usual fans they use . i am lucky where i have the ecu so we can plug the lambda sensors in and also do a road test and to see whats going on with the air / fuel mixture on the road .
thanks for your help .
whats your thoughts on the running in oil ? would you go with it or change it for a semi synthetic type ?
Damn! no new posts!! Congrats to f-bird for his patience on the matter! Good thing 'stang ain't no "hardhead"!! Oh and Keithdyer... I think you nailed it!! Good luck on that beautiful stang dude!! (should have just put 2 blower 750's on and been done with it!!) But then I wouldn't have had the fun of reading all this! One more thing... Holy crap!?!?! that is a GIANT top blower drive gear!!! Guessing the bottom one is relative!! Lets see some more pics!
yep got that re the choke horns .
re the top pulley . it is larger than norrmal due to the way i have had the bottom pulley specially machined to cover my harmonic balancer ( rattler ) i didnt like the way people bolt a pulley to the front of a balancer then go on to say you have to double key way it. blah blah. no s**t the amount of strain and fource to spin the blower with a pulley stuck to the front of the crank is utter madness to me. so i simply had one specifically machined to fit snug over the balancer . this in turn made the top pulley the size it is to get the psi i am aiming for.
i dont want dp carbs , opinions vary on that side of it. some like dp some like vac secs, dont think its a case of saying this is what you should use . it depends on what you are using it for. street - race - strip etc etc,
i like pat ganagl opinion on blown supercharging for the street , he aint daft .
once i been to the dyno i will post some pics for sure .
back to the last question - whats your thoughts on the oil choice for a dyno run ?
Once the engine is broken in you do not need as much additives as you did during the break in process. That's why they sell break in oil and oil to be used AFTER break in. You can use the ZDDPlus-type additive to duplicate these same amounts of additives when using regular motor oil.
This has been written about extensively, if you do a search here or on the net you'll see plenty of info on ppm of additives needed for long term use, etc., so I'll not rehash it all here.

mustang 671 (12-14-2012)
cheers cobalt . just what i needed to know . will get some ordered up for after the dyno .
some say its worth taking a oil sample and having it sent off to analysis to see what if any other chemicals have got into the oil . too much fuel . water etc
good idea on first dyno run ?
The problem I would have is not knowing how much of any element would be normal vs. abnormal. That info might be supplied by the testing facility or somewhere online. The bearing type/materials and the other things like piston alloy, etc. should be known to see if those elements showed up, but the amounts of these elements in the sample (PPM?) would be the stumbling block for me.
Good luck.

will ponder on that one hmmm
hi all. happy xmas. hope you have a good new year.
just insured the mustang for the road. dyno is booked for this wednesday and mot in the afternoon. not long now and i hope to be out driving.
will post some dyno figures and hopefully get some pics and possibily a video will be nice.
bloody weather is awful though. not stopped raining here.
hi all . got to the dyno and found out why i had some issues previously , i have a weak crank sensor , we put a pitch anayliser on it and the resonation changed the sensitivity of it which meant it didnt read thed crank trigger wheel 100% at certain rev ranges , it wasnt a carb problem that i first was trying to fix, so i have ordered a more higher output senor , engine ran well and we re jetted the primarys to 65 jets from 72s , got bad weather here now so wont be back to the dyno till mid feb.
getting there now.
hi f bird . happy new year and all that
yes it was rich as hell with 72s on the primary side , i still have 78s in the secoundaries for now , but was difficult to get "wot" and see what the air fuel mix was reading from lambda senors as the crank sensor wasnt reading 100% dyno guy shut it off and said to change it as when the secoundaries kick in - if the sensor miss reads a tooth it could fire the wrong plug , so i have ordered a ford vetec sensor which pushes more lots and will compensate fot the engine resonation ( noise and movement combined )
but he had it running very smooth on primary side and idle at 925 ish , started each time fine.
pulley ratio is bottom 45 and top 51 . so -8% under driven given me around 10 lbs boost.

I must admit, I approached this dvd with trepidation. I've been working with paper for years. I've cut it, burned it, soaked it, molded it, decoupaged it, transfer imaged it, spritzed it, spackled it, crackled it, stamped it, embossed it, debossed it, glittered it, grunged it, buried it, weaved it and made many books with it. But I've never done any "fancy" paper folding. So, even though I consider myself an advanced craftsman, I'm a beginner at this technique. But, I also don't want to be instructed like a second grader and am irritated by endless repetition of needless information. No fear! This is the perfect teacher for this technique! She goes over every step of every fold carefully and specifically - and never "talks down" to her audience. I never felt like the village idiot and found that I enjoyed watching the video and learning her techniques and seeing some things that were new to me. I look forward to putting my new knowledge to practical use. This was worth every reasonable penny I paid for it - and I highly recommend it!

Hi there fellow Fettsters
I was wondering, you guys gave me alot of positive feedback on Bobamaker, so I went and sent him an E-Mail about a week ago (didn't get a responce), seeing that I sent him an other E-Mail last Thursday (as of today still no responce).
I was wondering is this normal, does he take long to respond normaly? I know life happens, or maybe he has to many orders already, I don't know.
one more thingif anyone can contact him via other means and ask him to give me a sign that would be very much apreciated.
Thanks alot

Tried to post the link from my phone and it didn't work. Here's the video I was trying to link.

http://How to Train a One Way Alert ...be/R1DiaKPvgIU
David Winners
It's really way more simple than anything said here. If you have a recall or bark command you just make the timer noise happen first then a half second later give the bark command or recall command and reward. The dog will cue off the timer instead because it always comes first and then you can just drop the command and just reward for the dog cueing off the timer bell.
If it takes you longer than 5 minutes you did something wrong.
This--alerting me to environmental sounds to which I need to pay attention--is one of my girl Z's primary tasks. She tells me when several different timers go off, when someone is at the door, when the coffeepot is almost done brewing, when the cell phone rings or a text message is received, the smoke detector goes off, etc.
She initiated the smoke detector alert training. Shortly after I got hurt I was fixing dinner. I guess a fire started and the smoke detector went off; in the meantime, I had forgotten that I was cooking, and didn't notice the smoke detector. From my perspective, I suddenly had this absolutely insane 5 month old puppy bouncing off the walls and barking, racing from me to the kitchen and back. I went and checked, found and corrected the problem, and gave her a jackpot-sized treat.
Over the next few days, I'd use the "test" function to sound the timer, then give her treats. Now, anytime the alarm goes off, she finds me and makes sure I know it went off.
Other than that, training was basically as Lilie suggested.
For the coffeepot, I started by setting a bowl of treats on the counter where Z could see them. Then I sat in the next room and watching the pot brew. When it was making the gurgling noise that indicated it was almost done, I'd go to the pot; I suspect that from her perspective, she thought I was going to the bowl of treats, so of course she went with me! When we arrived, she was praised and got a treat. I shut the pot off and got a cup of coffee. Doing this every time, it wasn't long til she would tell me the pot was making noise.
Every time someone came to the door she got a treat. After a while, if I wasn't near the door, she would come tell me, doing the "running back and forth between me and the door" routine.
I began training her to alert to timers using the bell on the microwave, since I use it to nuke my coffee. I drink a lot of coffee, so there are lots of training opportunities. Same routine, it didn't take long for her to get the idea.
The cell phone was a different matter. I began training her using the alarm clock function, with the phone sitting by me. Then we worked on having it further and further away. During this process, she also had natural learning opportunities when someone would call (different ringtones) or text (a different sound--a 3 second tone), and when I had the ringer silenced so the phone just vibrated. She learned to alert me to the phone any time it made noise. (This has also made it my most-reliable alarm clock, because she will wake me to make sure I know the phone is making noise.)
She is the one who generalized the task (alerting me to alarms/signals/etc) to alerting me to the oven timer, washing machine timer, etc. A few weeks ago, she made sure I knew the tornado siren was going off; I've been meaning to train her for that but hadn't quite figured out how.
|Its very much possible! Funny story.. my pup who is around 6 months has learned that everytime my cell rings I answer it. Since my gf calls for often that he must have associated the importance of answering it when rings that he calls me when it rings and goes unanswered for a while.. If i'm inside and still dont answer he looks at me like whats wrong with you why not picking up and keeps reminding me that phone is ringing like i cant hear it by constantly looking at me and then at the phone.. haha its just so adoreable! He's also learned that when door bell rings he can bark once then he has to go wait in his crate until I go open the door and release him..
|Thanks Lilie! I'll try this.

Then repeat.... and repeat....and soon your dogs will jump up excited when they hear the alarm - before you even react. At that time throw a party and treat.
Make it a game - but keep it at a distance where you can still hear the stove and reward for the desired reaction from the dogs.
Then when they are pretty solid at it - set the alarm for 3 minutes - and your watch - and go to a room where YOU can't hear the timer alarm and wait. See if the dogs will still react.
Think along the lines of someone knocking on your door...or your door bell ringing...
I know it can be done. A treat for an alert is part of it. I saw this with my guy at about 1;00 am in the morning I would turn off our DLP TV. It would play a tone when it turned off, Rocky would automatically get up and head to the bedroom??
I was amazed! So I have no doubt it can be done.

Technology vendors are disconnected from their customers. If the problem were simple, such as changing message themes, tech vendors could easily adapt.
When looking at tech vendors, the "problem" is long-standing, entrenched behaviors about how products and solutions go to market. The "problem" includes customers that now want to buy "business outcomes" rather than traditional products. The "problem" includes sales organizations that fail to learn about the customer's business or requirements. The "problem" includes marketing organizations that fail to recognize that while they get to aim the gun, only sales can pull the trigger. Across these three processes, companies are trying to shoot faster, shoot bigger bullets, or even aim at different targets when the real problem is eye-hand coordination - or aligning methods and messages.
Selling technology requires three processes to align: (1) the customer problem solving process; (2) the vendor selling process; and (3) the marketing processes for communicating solutions. Gaps in these processes will cause finger-pointing within the vendor, raise the average cost of sales, lengthen the sales cycle, increase turnover of sales and marketing employees, confuse customers, etc. Few tech vendors are changing their internal methodologies to align these processes.
How are these gaps in your organization? How is your company addressing these gaps? We'd love to hear your experience!
(Next in this series, Forrester will introduce "portfolio management" as framework to help sales enablement professionals align these silos.)

It's a shame to get old! My oldest child recently announced that he and his wife are having a child themselves. On one hand, I am thrilled at the prospects of having a smiling infant in the family - that I can hand off for unpleasant tasks. On the other hand, I am in complete, 100% denial about the word that will define my relationship with this child - the "G" word - shhhh, don't say it!
This made me reminisce about work. I remember my years in marketing at Sequent Computer Systems. The sales organization sold products based on "feeds and speeds" that became possible from "symmetric multi-processing." It was exciting stuff. We lived on the cutting edge of technology. Customers bought "products."
My next move placed me in the outsourcing industry. Rather than buying products, customers looked for solutions - usually a functional combination of hardware and software to solve a technical problem. Acronyms such as ERP and CRM were common, and the services industry exploded. Customers bought "solutions."
Now I am at Forrester and witnessing another fundamental change in the market. The financial pressures of the recent (and continuing?) recession changed customers. They now align business investments with technology costs. Customers want "outcomes."
The problem is that tech vendors are going to market the same way that we did 20+ years ago. In today's market, vendors must understand the customer - not in the abstract - but understand current problems and desired outcomes. Adapting your products and messaging to a customer point of view is called "portfolio management." Forrester's sales enablement team would love to hear about your experiences, perspectives, or insights.

East Flatbush, Brooklyn
As the Bay Ridge Line moves further east in East Flatbush and away from subway lines, the character of the area surrounding the tracks becomes considerably more industrial.
Albany Avenue Station
Avenue H has an industrial patch here as you head farther east from Nostrand Avenue, although there are still plenty of folks living off the avenue on the side streets. This intersection with the tracks has some irregular lots that might make good locations for a station house, although it may be a bit too close to the Flatbush Avenue station to be justifiable.
The Bay Ridge Line goes elevated between East 42nd Street and East 46th Street with the first road crossing at Glenwood Road. It will stay elevated until East New York.

Really, I have lost count; but I know there is a BUNCH of 'em~! :-D
How many mags do you keep (on average) for each gun?
Really, I have lost count; but I know there is a BUNCH of 'em~! :-D
I normally keep 6..... (3) for Range (3) for Carry.....
I have a Kel-Tec sub 2000, Glock 17 and 26 that use the same mags. I have two 33rd, one 30rd and six 17 rd which work in all three guns. Four 10 rds for the G26 but when I carry it which is all the time, I keep a ten rd in it and carry two 17 rds with me. I have a 33rd in my SUV. I try to have four mags for all my gun for going to the range.
I usually keep 4-6 for the handguns.
Ar-15s are another story I've got a blue million of those........
Well, there's "American Rifleman," "Shooting Times." "Guns and Ammo", and my favorite, " Guns of the Old West". I count four.

Well, I was about to buy a 6th Glock 34 mag, but I ran across that Galco Matrix holster on Friday afternoon, costing the same price. So, now I gotta wait. My goal is to have 6 for each gun. I have 6 fullsize USP mags already. 5 Glock mags, 4 HK USP compact mags, and 5 mags for my SW99.
I only have 2 for my compact P99, but I can use the 5 fullsize SW99 mags in it, so I don't worry about it. Prev had a Glock 26 for 8 years, and I only had the 2 compact mags that whole time. SInce it also used fullsize mags, it never bothered me
I became so paranoid after the clinton ban, I now have 12 magazines per handgun I own.
I have two pistols.One Mag. in each gun at home with JHP and two Mags. for each gun at the range.
Yea, I know what ya mean.Originally Posted by Hk Fanatic
I sold a Glock 17 mag for $100 once during that ban, though.
But yea, that is a concern.
I try to keep 4-6 per gun but I only have 3 right now for the M&P. I ordered the Desantis M&P holster from S&W the other day. At $39.96 a pop for the mags I only got one for now, the holster was $64.95. The wife is allready pissed so I better slow down until next month.
Echo! Echo!(I'm almost as paranoid)Originally Posted by Hk Fanatic
I have 12 10mm mags - 6 each(8rds), for the Delta and the Eclipse.
And 14 .45 mags of various capacities for the XSE and the Commander.(10 and 8 rounders for competition - 7 rounders for carry)
The G17 get only 5, 2- 17 rounders, and 2- 31 rounders, and 1- 10 rounder.
All get rotated with full capacity for a month at a time for nightstand duty, then back to the safe for their turn at the range or competition.
Now assuming the OP means magazines, ...
I have 5 for the PA-63 (probably go up to 8 after i get the second gun)
4 for the officers (2 colt 6rd, 2 star 7 round)
1 speedloader for the PT94
and for the Vaquero/singlesix/ 1851 navys, well... you figure those out lol

Treat a Cold
This is the time of year when coughs and colds are literally everywhere. I think there are more people with colds than without! But with that being said, it is also the time of year that the best prescription I have is probably for a bit of tincture of time.
I wish that I had the latest and greatest cure for upper respiratory infections, aka a cold. Unfortunately, despite continually reviewing the latest literature, I really have not seen any new cure-all, so we are back to symptomatic treatment, which involves tincture of time.
In other words despite everything that is tried, I tell my patients and even myself, a cold typically takes anywhere from 7-14 days to resolve. I do think you feel better if you get extra rest, drink lots of fluids and treat the other symptoms.
As you know (from previous posts) I'm a huge vapor rub believer (and studies have proven this not just my opinion). I also drink lots of hot tea with lemon and honey (which has also been shown to help coughs). I suck on a lot of throat lozenges (lemon drops as well) and do a lot of nose blowing and hand washing, but despite all of this, I too have to be reminded that I need a hefty dose of tincture of time and this cold will pass!
While adults only get a cold or maybe two a season, young children get about a cold a month, which means an almost constant runny gunky nose and cough for more days than a parent would like to count.
I know, by this time of year everyone (including me) is already tired of colds and all of those respiratory viruses. But, just remember; hang in there, Punxsutawny Phil did not see his shadow so an early spring is on the way!

Being Wrong
How often have you read or even said the following?
- "If you're doing x like y you're doing it wrong."
- "Oh I can't believe that agency x still uses that link building technique…"
- "Any clients that have been bludgeoned by an update were won after they were hit, nothing to do with us!"
When you read things like this do you think honesty, trust and authority or do you think…
"I know they are lying/talking crap, like the rest of us, but this is the game we play, we better keep a positive spin on it so it looks like we know what we are doing."
This leads me to an interesting phenomenon within the SEO industry (the sector that does no wrong but see's it everywhere else…) As you've probably noticed it is full of people who are worried about being wrong and shit scared of being seen as wrong. Why can't we be a bit more honest and open? If I have a shit idea tell me why it's shit, rip it apart, change it to something completely different. I would honestly be thankful.
If you don't use a particular technique, don't talk about how you use it with your clients. If you do a certain technique with a client, don't take the piss out of other people for doing it.
I've seen you do it…
I don't care about being wrong. In terms of my working life I don't have to be right all the time. In fact if I was always right, I'd find the rest of my life a crippling disappointment (ok, more so…)
So lets take a gander at why once upon a time getting it wrong was so, uhh, wrong. The two examples below are the old and new school views of SEO as defined by the SEO gods.
'Old school' SEO = More algorithmically focused. x links with y anchor text would generally equal z rankings. Often campaigns revolved around the same tactics regardless of niche and thus involved less creativity (99% of the time, I know there are some sharp SEO's out there who do things I could never think of.)
'New school' SEO = More marketing and brand focused. Visibility is king, through different forms of online marketing (thanks inbound) this means an SEO's role doesn't begin and end with Google. Allows for creativity, new fresh ideas and probably a more enjoyable job. Well mine is anyway. Yes technical SEO, adding the right page titles and doing keyword research is still important but basically the average SEO campaign is a little different!
The interesting thing is:
If creativity is really increasing within online marketing
then so is the risk of being wrong
Create a piece of content that got no links? Do an outreach campaign that had no replies? Get a website penalised?
Fuck it! Did you learn something from it? Good, do it again, remember why it 'failed' previously and do it better 🙂
I suppose what I'm trying to get at is –> If your not getting stuff wrong, you're failing to be creative and if you are failing to be creative you are probably going to struggle to attract links, customers (probably wrong order) to your website, now and in the long term.
I'm not going to say you're doing it wrong because I fucking hate that 'saying'.
Talk to your client about the volatility of organic search (without scaring them from it). Admit that no-one really knows exactly what is going on and work together in a partnership that not only makes it easier for you to work together but helps solidify your relationship.
Let the steering wheel go. Have fun, come up with ideas, be creative, make mistakes, learn from them and improve your clients brand. Yes this is dependant on how 'cool' your clients are but it's also down to how well you negotiate or sell the ideas to them. If a few of your clients aren't interested then that's the way the cookie crumbles, if none of them are interested, well you're not doing it right… 🙂
I've kinda gone off track but I hope you catch my drift. It's a bit of a ramble.
Have a great weekend y'all.

Yes. Yes. This. Absolutely.
Also intensely annoying is the desperation to tell people they're wrong. Don't blog about this, don't blog about that. You're not worthy. Oh, by the way, aren't we awfully wonderful and open and welcoming!VA:F [1.9.22_1171]VA:F [1.9.22_1171]
Sean I do like a good refreshing ramble/rant on a Friday. I totally agree, if we want to be taken seriously as a legitimate part of the marketing landscape, then creativity is how we will get there. And ask you say, creative solutions must fail occasionally, as their success is often based on subjectivity. The risk is what makes it fun.VA:F [1.9.22_1171]VA:F [1.9.22_1171]
I think I've learned much more from being wrong than I have from being right. Being right just makes you smug but being wrong makes you want to make sure you don't fuck up again. I also have discovered that I have much more respect for someone who says "you know what? I messed up and it's totally my fault" than someone who blames it on something or someone else. I also love Carps' avatar and will most likely see it in a nightmare soon.VA:F [1.9.22_1171]VA:F [1.9.22_1171]

Good thoughts, Sean. This post plays the flute of truth.
I just read something in the NY Times this morning about being scared of people stealing one's ideas. The author was saying thoughts themselves have no monetary value until well executed, (I think that precisely captures our seen 'value' as SEOs- not that we're creative in our fighting styles, but that we must win each bout or the ideas are for naught) using the example of the UFC, which almost went bankrupt the first iteration around.. Meaning it could of failed the first time around. It didn't mean success was unattainable, but another road needed to be adopted to get there.
I think in part the horror of being wrong stems from the need to be right. It's kind of like schools. In the states, a Blue Ribbon school designates one where students have eclipsed a stratum of standardized test scores. There's pressure to get that Ribbon, thus the school is 'doing what it's supposed to do' though so many variables affect a child's learning and intellectual progress, but tests are "standardized," so haha, all those factors are accounted for, right? So educators and supervisors often feel pressured, cutting corners to the point of downright cheating to get that Blue Ribbon for the school, or else, that school isn't one of those Top SEOs…
You're right about being wrong; no one really knows the magic formula; because, there isn't one. Way too many variables exist beyond our control, most of all consumer behavior. We can but research and make the best possible play, much like offensive coordinators. If I have Joe Montana and Jerry Rice on my offense, I'm going to be pretty fucking confident. But am I going to execute every play as planned? I can't say that. In retrospect, and compared against the plays of other teams, could I have done something better with my plays, even though I have Montana and Rice? Probably.
For instance, I can identify a bunch of things I can improve with my personal blog. Example, looking at engine referrers, my name and blog name are at the top, which is what I wanted, but NO TERMS related to my skills are.
I didn't mind what AJ suggests here. http://www.blindfiveyearold.com/content-recall I haven't been thinking about my content's 'legacy' aside from connection to my name and blog name. That needs attention. I'm doing it… not as well as I could… but I'm working toward improvement.

One of my favourite talks at BrightonSEO was by Rebecca Weeks, talking about the techniques that she implemented for a client, concentrating on short-term, grey-hat tactics (because the client demanded results ASAP), how they got slapped by Panda and Penguin and ultimately what she learnt from the experience.

The Top 10 Guitar-Playing Frontmen in Rock
Frontman: Jimi Hendrix
Bands: The Jimi Hendrix Experience, Band of Gypsys
When Jimi Hendrix first exploded onto the scene, attention was riveted on his radical reinvention of guitar-soloing vocabulary, technique and sound, which was inspired by a now-familiar roster of great blues soloists.
But Hendrix had another musical asset that set him apart from similarly influenced British blues-rock contemporaries: undeniable charisma and a voice that clearly stood out from the pack. In that sense, he was the complete package.
Although he wasn't the most powerful singer in the world, his voice had a pleasingly warm tone and plenty of soul, as can be heard on "Bold as Love" and "Castles Made of Sand" (and so many other songs). He also added plenty of what could best be described as fun ad-libs ("Dig this, baby...") that would be exploited by future generations of singers in every genre of popular music. Bootsy Collins, anyone?

Lacrosse news straight to your inbox.
Tuesday August 6th, 2013 12:48am
The Tewaaraton Trophy will be presented tonight at the Warner Theater in Washington D.C. Click here for ticket information.
We kicked the question to the Inside Lacrosse staff: Who should win the 2011 Tewaaraton?
The finalists are below:
The women's finalists are:
Here's what the staff members had to say:
On the men's side, I think it should be Steele Stanwick. While I understand he was shut down in the championship game, I don't think Virginia would have even gotten that far without him. He completely took the team on his back in the first round against Bucknell and aside from Monday's game, had one of the better tournament performances in recent memory.
For the women, I think Shannon Smith has it just about locked up. Prior to Sunday's championship game, I would have gone with Maryland's Sarah Mollison but Northwestern effectively face guarded her and took her completely out of the game. She didn't even really have that many touches. Meanwhile, Smith not only outperforms Mollison, but against one of the top defenders in the nation, puts up four goals. The best player on the championship winning team who stepped up in the biggest moments, I think Smith wins it.
Steele Stanwick, Virginia: To win the Tewaaraton, you should do well in the playoffs. It's what distinguishes the award from other post-season accolades. Virginia's offensive quarterback posted 21 points through the playoffs and stepped up as the vital component in three of Virginia's four NCAA Tournament wins. And, as Virginia offensive coordinator Marc Van Arsdale told me after the championship game Monday, even though Stanwick only posted one point (1A), he was still vital in a field general capacity with the ball continuously working through him. He's a first-team All-American, ACC Player of the Year and a vital component to the team's 2011 run. Think it would only be appropriate if he finished the year as the Tewaaraton winner.
Shannon Smith, Northwestern: After last year's hiccup, the Wildcats returned to the top of the heap with another championship. Smith was the offensive catalyst for this particular, posting 128 points on the year. She won Tournament MVP honors, scored the game-winner against North Carolina in the semifinals and dropped four goals against Maryland in the title game. It's a no-brainer.
Despite Virginia winning the NCAA Championship, and getting to that point largely on the back of a Steele Stanwick's absurd run through the tournament, I don't know if I am convinced he topped Rob Pannell for this award. Maybe it's because I look at a Tewaaraton Award as a Most Valuable Player award, and Virginia's success, particularly on Memorial Day weekend, was largely because they proved that no one player was that essential to the team, they had enough guys to get the job done regardless of who was called on. Also, from getting to hang around a little behind the scenes and hear some conversations with Bray Malphrus and John Haldy, I think those two are the real MVPs at Virginia. This group has been talented for years, it took those two finally getting everyone to bury their nonsense, maintain some discipline, and demand more from each other to finally win a title.
Whereas I don't think anyone can argue that Rob Pannell was the most valuable member of that Cornell team. Virginia might not have been quite as good without Stanwick, but they still would have been good, they have the players. While Cornell's talent often gets undervalued, as their quarterfinal game showed, Virginia's athletes are better than Cornell's, and that Big Red team is very different without Pannelll.
Either way, I'll be happy if either one wins.
The Tewaaraton has typically been a season award. With Doug Shanahan being the only winner to not appear in the Final Four, that led me to believe it was Steele Stanwick's to lose heading into championship weekend. BUT his quiet NCAA Final (one assist), and the fact that he had some other quiet games mid-season thanks to nagging injuries, means I'm not so sure Rob Pannell's out of the picture. Pannell was great start to finish this year, but the knock on him will be that he didn't make the Final Four. And even with Stanwick posting just one point Monday, he still finished the postseason with 21. Pannell's 89-point season put him well ahead of anyone else in total points and points per game. Both have very strong cases, and a few holes as well. I'm going with Stanwick since late-season run taking over a retooled offense really got Virginia the title.

Front end: Window properties
Is it possible to configure the properties of new front end windows
in 18.104.22.168X?
For instance I would like the help browser window to pop up larger
than the default size of 500x627.
But if I try to change
Global options -> Dialog settings -> HelpBrowserSettings -> WindowSize
accordingly it doesn't seem to have any effect. The help window opens
as usual with its default size and the mentioned values in the option
inspector switch back to 500x627.
BTW, I cannot select "apply" in the option inspector (it is greyed
out). Maybe that's the actual problem, I don't know.
In the same way I want new notebook windows and the file selection
dialog to open larger than usual. And last but not least it would be
really cool if the file selection dialog always would open in
"advanced" mode. Is this possible?
Bye, Grischa

The next activity that was scheduled for the team was to attend Steven and Florence's wedding. Their wedding cermony was just about the same as any American wedding, but their reception was different. During the reception, they had traditional Rwandan dancing, and both sides of the families had to welcome each other to the family. In the Rwanda traditon, there is a bride price to pay. The bride price is usually paid in cattles.
After the wedding reception, we came back to the mission house. We actually left the reception a little bit early. The days of the team returning to America are coming close. We are excited to come back to the states, but also very sad to leave the friends that we have made here in Rwanda.
Thank You!
Thanks to everyone for praying for the team and their health. Each team member has been on their feet and has been involved in all the ministry that has been on our agenda. It was because of prayer that each team member is feeling better and that we are able to carry on. God bless.

The Beginning: Founded by Edith Lesley
1909 - Edith Lesley, a kindergarten teacher in
Cambridge, Massachusetts, founded the Lesley Normal School, a two-year
school to train Kindergarten teachers. Edith taught philosophy, child
study, and the theory and methods of Friedrich Froebel, the founder of
the Kindergarten movement. Her sister, Olive, taught folk dancing,
games, and storytelling. Anna Tikkanen, an international student from
Finland, was the first student enrolled in the Lesley Normal School.
Following Anna, eight other students enrolled, for a total of nine
students, each paying a tuition of $100 per year. The classes met in
Edith's home at 29 Everett Street in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
The Teens: Women in the World
1911 - The first class of 11 graduated
at the First Parish Church (Unitarian) in Harvard Square in Cambridge, Massachusetts on June 10.
1912 - The Art Institute of Boston (AIB) was founded
by Roy Atherton Davidson as the School for Practical Art. The school
opened in Davison's own studio, three small rooms in Boston's Back Bay,
and was one of the first private, non-affiliated studio schools in the
United States.
1913 - Forty of 43 Lesley Normal School graduates
were teachers. The other three were married and therefore were not
allowed to hold teaching positions.

Bridgewater, New Hampshire into the Lesley Camp. Lesley School students
studied at the camp during the summers to receive camp certificates in

arms, two griffins holding a field medal, to the furnishings from
around the world she collected to make the school as "homey as possible"

not persisted." Edith believed her ancestry was connected to Lord
Newark, David Leslie, who received his title in August 1660 for valor
during a battle against the invasion of Scotland by Oliver Cromwell.

So what really pisses you off? Makes you rage.
Hitting my toe on the coffee table.
Jerking an ear bud out by accident.
These are minor but make me want to kill whatever is near me.
I'm not sure if it b/c I tend to let bigger issues go and I need a rage outlet.
But regardless, I need a new cat.

Howard Scott Named Horizon League Player of the Week
By: Ryan Hartwig (@RyanHartwig)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) – Green Bay sophomore Howard Scott (Exeter, England) has been tabbed as the Horizon League Men's Tennis Player of the Week for the period of Sept. 16-22, the conference announced on Monday. Scott was the runner-up in the Flight A singles bracket at the 20-team Purdue Fall Invitational over the weekend and also advanced to the semifinals of Flight B doubles.
It marks the first Horizon League Player of the Week honor in Scott's young career.
Scott won his first four singles matches in the three-day Purdue Invite at the Schwartz Tennis Center, starting with an impressive 6-3, 6-3 win on Friday over DePaul's Filip Dzanko, who was ranked as one of the top-eight seeds in the 32-man flight. Scott advanced to the semifinals with two more straight-set wins over Valparaiso's Dave Bacalla (6-3, 6-1) and No. 2 seed Chris Simich (6-0, 6-2) of Louisville.
The sophomore earned his trip to the title match with a 4-6, 7-6 (7), 6-1 victory over Toledo's Mark Singni before falling to the tournament's No. 1 overall seed Nadin Indre of Western Michigan 6-1, 6-2.
Scott and Marius Merz (Heidelberg, Germany) made a run to the semifinals in the Flight B doubles bracket, winning their first three contests against duos from Toledo (8-6), Western Michigan (8-4) and Washington University in St. Louis (9-7). The sophomores ultimately fell to Toledo's Garrett Cona and Stjepan Sisko (8-1) in the penultimate match.
The Purdue Invite marked the second straight standout weekend for Scott, who was also named MVP at the Western Michigan Invitational last weekend after finishing with six total wins.
Green Bay continues its fall slate next weekend at the ITA All-American Championships in Tulsa, Okla.

Our Story
Global Goods Partners (GGP) is a nonprofit social enterprise dedicated to
alleviating poverty and promoting social justice
in the Global South. Founded in 2005, GGP creates economic opportunity for women in some of the world's poorest communities by providing access to the US market for the fair trade, handmade products they produce. Working in partnership with more than
40 partners in 20 countries,
GGP provides technical assistance, product development, operational expertise and small capacity building grants to our community based partners. With this support,
GGP is empowering women to create sustainable change
-advancing the health and well-being of their families and communities.
As professionals in the international development field, Catherine Lieber Shimony and Joan Shifrin traveled to impoverished areas around the globe to support community-based economic initiatives. Time and time again, they met dynamic women that were producing beautiful, handmade goods, yet lacked access to sustainable markets in which to sell their products. Catherine and Joan saw first-hand how women in marginalized communities throughout Asia, Africa, and the Americas were able to advance their families' well-being only after their income was stabilized. In 2005, Catherine and Joan were inspired to found Global Goods Partners to create effective income-generation opportunities for women and their communities through access to the consumer market for handmade, fair trade products.

Laws, Regulations & Annotations
Property Taxes Law Guide – Revision 2017
Revenue and Taxation Code
Property Taxation
Part 2. Assessment
Chapter 3. Assessment Generally
Article 6. Assessment Roll
Section 612
612. Owners' representatives. When a person is assessed as agent, trustee, bailee, guardian, conservator, executor, or administrator, his representative designation shall be added to his name, and the assessment entered separately from his individual assessment.
History.—Stats. 1979, Ch. 730, in effect January 1, 1980, operative January 1, 1981, added "conservator," after "guardian," in the first sentence of the first paragraph.
Designation of capacity.—When property is assessed to a person as administrator, it is immaterial whether he is a special or general administrator. City and County of San Francisco v. Pennie, 93 Cal. 465. When the assessor is not advised of the names of the principals until subsequent to the assessment, his failure to show the representative character of the assessee and to designate the principals does not invalidate the assessment, S. & G. Gump Co. v. City and County of San Francisco, 18 Cal.2d 129.

Hey TEFL community!
I am a prospective teacher and I have made an account here because I think it is a great forum and could probably use some help in the near future
I have a demo class that I need preparing for and I know the topic sounds simple enough but there are just so many examples (such as questions or an event or something) that I just can't seem to narrow it down as to what content to actually teach.
The lesson plan is to be for a 15 - 20 minutes class and the topic is the difference between the past and present tense for lower intermediate levels. It is to be a controlled practice lesson which, to my understanding, means to elicit material rather than to teach it?
I really want to get this job but as you can see I don't actually have much experience with lesson planning.
So please help me get the ball rolling here, any suggestions for content or a structure would be much appreciated guys thank you.

You know how it goes. You buy your kid this fancy expensive toy and put it all together. But when you turn around, the little ingrate is playing inside the box. Try as you might, you cannot coax him from his cardboard castle. That's why you should buy him one of these. Your momma didn't raise no fool.
