It's a dubious honor because there isn't a trainer out there that would ever believe that someone else could be the very best, like no one ever was. I certainly don't believe that.
I love this because it reminds me of a propaganda recruitment poster.

Hands down my favorite zelda game; such an interesting core mechanic and such a beautiful world! And by FAR the most developed and multidimensional antagonist! Too bad its receiving its homage from ramy... and putting navi instead of tatl is just frustrating.

I don't KNOW, but my guess it's rejected due to IP infringement. Mario and Zelda are copyright Nintendo, and they're fierce about protecting their 2 biggest cash cows.
Perhaps a better way to go w/ this same concept would be some chess pieces on a backgammon board or something like that.

ATLANTA --- North Carolina head women's basketball coach Sylvia Hatchell has been selected for induction into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame as a member of the 2013 class, the Hall of Fame announced Monday. Hatchell, who recently guided the Tar Heels to a 29-7 finish and the No. 3 seed in the Bridgeport Region of the NCAA Championship, will officially join the Hall of Fame in a ceremony in Springfield, Mass., on Sunday, September 8.
Hatchell joins coaches Guy Lewis, Rick Pitino and Jerry Tarkanian and players Bernard King, Gary Payton and Dawn Staley as members of the 2013 class that was formally introduced Monday as part of the Men's Final Four festivities in Atlanta. Five direct elect selections were also announced - Roger Brown (ABA Committee), Edwin B. Henderson (Early African-American Pioneers Committee), Oscar Schmidt (International Committee), Richard Guerin (Veterans Committee) and Russ Granik (Contributor Direct Election Committee).
A three-time national coach of the year, Hatchell is the first woman with Carolina ties to earn induction and joins nine other Tar Heels in the Naismith Hall of Fame - coaches Ben Carnevale, Frank McGuire, Dean Smith, Larry Brown and Roy Williams, player/coach Billy Cunningham and players James Worthy, Robert McAdoo and Michael Jordan. In 2013, Hatchell became just the third women's coach in history to reach 900 career wins, and she currently stands No. 2 all-time behind legendary Tennessee coach Pat Summitt.
In addition to her 27 years in Chapel Hill, Hatchell's career also includes 11 seasons at Francis Marion in Florence, S.C. Her teams at Francis Marion won 272 games and national titles in 1982 and 1986.
She also has a lengthy international résumé, assisting Kay Yow with the gold medal-winning United States team at the 1988 Summer Olympics as well as leading several World University Games, World Championships, Goodwill Games and Jones Cup teams to gold as a head coach.
Hatchell has won 636 games as the head coach at UNC in her 27 seasons at the helm. She has led the Tar Heels to eight Atlantic Coast Conference Tournament titles and, in 1994, won the NCAA Championship on Charlotte Smith's buzzer-beating three-pointer against Louisiana Tech.

Lindsay and Greg were married at Scripps Seaside Forum in La Jolla, Calif. on October 19. "It was a beautiful space that allows for a ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception to take place all in one area," Lindsay said. "Plus, it was a blank canvas that we could customize and design our wedding style to." The bride wore an sweetheart ball gown designed by Ian Staurt called "Antoinette," while the groom wore a classic black suit. Bridesmaids shined bright in their long, gold glitter dresses, and the flower girl look oh-so adorable with her floral wreath in her hair. "Besides seeing my soon-to-be husband for the first time, it was so wonderful to se all of our family and friends together to celebrate such a special day with us," she said. "We also included thoughtful details like picturing our family members on their wedding day at the dessert bar and also honoring those that served in the military." The ceremony overlooked the Pacific Ocean with a dramatic arch draped in fabric, while the reception took place instead the grand ballroom with tall floral centerpieces featuring roses and hydrangeas and crystals. The newlyweds' favorite part of the day? "The catering!" Lindsay said. "Appetizers like truffle grilled cheese and mini sliders with sweet potato fries . . . signature mojito cocktails . . .and a custom dessert bar." Who could resist those donuts and layered mouse shooters?

Penile implant surgery is usually done at a surgery center or hospital. Your doctor might give you medication to make you unconscious during the surgery (general anesthesia) or medication that blocks pain in the lower part of your body (spinal anesthesia).
Your doctor will give you IV antibiotics to help prevent infection. The surgery site will also be shaved immediately before surgery to reduce the risk of infection.
A tube (catheter) might be inserted into your bladder via your penis to collect urine at some point during surgery. Your surgeon will make an incision below the head of the penis, at the base of the penis or in the lower abdomen. Next, your surgeon will stretch the spongy tissue in the penis that would normally fill with blood during an erection. This tissue is inside each of the two hollow chambers called the corpora cavernosa.
Your surgeon will choose the correct size implant and place the implant cylinders inside the penis. All sizes are customized to your exact body measurements.
If your doctor is implanting a two-piece inflatable device, a pump and valve are placed inside the scrotum. For a three-piece device, your doctor will also implant a fluid reservoir under the abdominal wall through an internal incision.
Once the device is in place, your surgeon will sew the incisions closed. Penile implant surgery usually takes 45 minutes to an hour.
After penile implant surgery, you'll likely need to take medications to ease pain after surgery. Mild pain might persist for several weeks. You might also need to take antibiotics to prevent infection for one week. Your doctor might recommend keeping your penis up on your lower abdomen and pointing toward your bellybutton during the healing process to prevent downward curvature.
Your doctor will provide specific instructions about when you can resume normal activities. Most men can resume strenuous physical activity and sexual activity about four to six weeks after surgery. At this point, your doctor might recommend fully inflating and deflating inflatable penile implants twice a day to give you practice using them and stretch the area surrounding the cylinders.

From the "keeping it real" department…
Last April, I hooked up with my really good buddy Gabriele "Elvis" Inglesi (above) after Vinitaly for one of our favorite traditions: meeting the "gang" at the horse restaurant. Yes, the horse — equine meat — restaurant. Horse meat is considered a delicacy in the Veneto (where I lived, studied, and played music for many years) and when Gabriele (aka Lelecaster for his mastery of the Telecaster) and I used to tour as a duo there, we would often spend Sunday evening with our friends at one of the many family-friendly horse restaurants in the hills and countryside outside Padua (btw, Padua is English for Padova, like Florence for Firenze, Rome for Roma, Naples for Napoli). That Sunday night, we went to Trattoria Savio (since 1965) in Legnaro.
Risotto with sfilacci di cavallo. Sfilacci are thinly sliced "threads" of salt-cured, smoked horse thigh.
Griddle-seared horse salami, sfilacci, horse prosciutto, and grilled white polenta.
Pony filet. Very lean (yet tasty), horse meat became popular in Europe in the 1960s when it was promoted (in particular by the French government) as a nutritious and inexpensive alternative to beef. In Verona, pastissada de caval — horse meat, usually the rump, stewed in wine — is the traditional pairing for Recioto and Amarone (check out Franco's alarming article on Amarone, overcropping, and excessive production in Valpolicella, published in the February issue of Decanter magazine).
At Trattoria Savio, we drank pitchers of white and red wine. I'm not sure but the white tasted like Verduzzo to me, the red was probably stainless-steel Piave Cabernet and Merlot.
Gabriele is one of the meanest chicken pickers I've ever heard. Check out this YouTube of him with his band Hillbilly Soul:
In other news…
We're getting the first reports of spins for our new album Ménagerie. This week we were the 6th "most added" band on college radio (Franz Ferdinand was #5). Keep your fingers crossed and please check out our album!
France-NYC trip starts next week and Alice, Tracie B, and I have a date to go natural winebar hopping in Paris. Stay tuned…

NRA Lobbyist: Connecticut's New Gun Laws "A Disservice" To Newtown Victims
The National Rifle Association's Connecticut lobbyist said the state's new gun laws are "a real shame" and "a disservice to what happened and the children" who were killed in the December 14 massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut.
On April 4, Connecticut Gov. Dannel Malloy signed gun violence prevention legislation into law [1], which included [2] expanded background checks and a strengthened assault weapons ban among other measures.
NRA lobbyist John Hohenwarter's comments, which were made on the April 3 edition of the NRA's news program Cam & Company, were a reaction to reports that the Connecticut legislature was moving to pass a gun violence prevention package:
HOHENWARTER: [I'm] not very optimistic. I think the saddest part of this day is not the fact that they are throwing the Second Amendment under the bus up there, but the fact that there's not going to be a family or child safer because of it.
CAM EDWARDS, HOST: Well, absolutely, John. And, you know, that's the sad thing is that when you look at these measures, I mean, we keep hearing people say, "Oh, this is going to make us safer," but yet they never say how. Instead, when you ask how, then it turns into an argument of shame on you for not supporting these bills, shame on you for not supporting these things that will make us safer. But they never explain how these will work to reduce violent crime, how these will work to prevent another tragedy, another massacre like what we saw in Newtown, Connecticut.
HOHENWARTER: Well, they can't explain it, you know. We have, just in the last hour two members that are now - at one time were no votes - that are now yes votes, because they believe the bill because it doesn't have confiscation in it is a better bill. So they are voting on a bad bill because it doesn't have confiscation in it. I mean, this bill, basically, takes you to a point that the only thing they're doing is not melting guns down now in the state of Connecticut. And it's a real shame, because it's a disservice to what happened and the children and the tragedy to see them push through a policy like this. And it's Obamacare all over. It's a 139 page bill in which probably 90 percent of them never read the bill. [emphasis added]
In February, Think Progress called attention [3] to a comment made by a lobbyist for a Wisconsin NRA-affiliated group that the NRA's agenda in that state would was "going to be delayed as the 'Connecticut effect' has to go through the process."

Hello all.
I have been doing a lot of web-surfing, reading forums etc., including the one below here regarding the 'Online Debate', but I am still at a loss as to which company to choose.
I got my CTEFLA in 1993, and have been teaching adults since then, in England in the mid-90's and in Japan for the past 10 years. I have been interested in taking either the DELTA course or TESOL Diploma but various factors held me back. Now I feel ready to go for it, and make myself a more knowledgeable teacher with a license to help me get a position as teacher trainer or even DoS.
Financially speaking, the DELTA correspondence course with International House/British Council recognition is simply too expensive, not to mention awkward (two-week orientation halfway across the world). Therefore I assume that I am limited to the much cheaper TESOL Diploma, which worries me... Being much cheaper makes it what? Unrecognised? Cheap?!
From the modules the TESOL Dip. offers, I see that there are a lot of vital areas covered in the learning process, which of course is a good point. Now the problem is that while the DELTA course covers far more, the TESOL Dip. courses have less, but each course differs in required reading and learning.
How can we know which is most suitable?
I need a course that has peer guidance, i.e. a mentor, and one that is absolutely recognised by a well-known and reputable organisation. Unfortunately I only know International House and the British Council.
So far, I have not found a single forum thread written by a person who actually took an online diploma course! There are no recommendations it seems other than by the people who run the courses themselves.
Any advice or help is greatly appreciated!

The other day I found a minolta SRT200 with three lenses for $30; MC ROKKOR-X PF 1:2 f=50mm, AUTO Vivitar TELE-ZOOM 75-260mm 1:4.5, and Quantaray MC AUTO 1:2.8 f=24mm 52ø are the lenses it came with...
The camera I use is the Sony Alpha 100.
By now I assume everyone who is reading knows where I'm going with this; I want to be able to use the lenses with the Sony.
Now my question is can any one help me? Are there any mounts I can purchase online? or is it hopeless?
If it is indeed completely hopeless, where can I buy a new battery for the minolta SRT200?
Thank you all who took the time to read this, I hope you guys can help me and anyone else who is trying to find this information on the internet.
Lens Problems That I'm Sure Other People Need Help With...maybe.

South Salt Lake police and Unified Police officers on Monday arrested a suspected serial bank robber after several tips led them to an apartment in Taylorsville.
South Salt Lake police Sgt. Gary Keller said the joint arrest was made at 3 a.m. when officers converged on the apartment at 3970 S. 700 West to serve a search warrant. However, the suspect, identified as 38-year-old Caprice Tyrone Martin, was arrested when he exited the apartment just before officers were set to close in.
He was taken into custody without incident, Keller said.
A subsequent search of the apartment turned up a mask and clothing believed to have been used in the robberies, as well as a small amount of marijuana.
The man is believed linked to at least three bank robberies one in Salt Lake City and two in South Salt Lake last month.
On July 11, a man wearing a transparent Halloween mask entered the Zions Bank branch at 910 W. 2100 South in Salt Lake City, brandishing a black handgun. He demanded and received an undisclosed amount of cash and fled on foot.
On July 18, the same suspect is believed to have held up a US Bank branch at 2700 S. 300 West in South Salt Lake. A week later, the robber also is thought to have hit a Zions Bank branch at 3900 S. 700 East.
Keller said the suspect was booked into the Salt Lake County Jail where he was being held without bail on suspicion of three counts of first-degree felony aggravated robbery and one third-degree felony count of marijuana possession.
A probable cause statement notes that an unidentified witness told investigators that the suspect had displayed large amounts of cash on the days corresponding to the robberies. The statement also notes that after being advised of his right to remain silent, the suspect acknowledged he was a drug dealer.
The Salt Lake County District Attorney is screening the cases.

When the holidays roll around, it usually means we are in the midst of holiday cookies, cakes, stuffing, sauces, and hams. Trying to eat healthy foods can be difficult during this time of year, making some of us feel guilty when we veer from our usual meals. But should we feel guilty? And should we substitute reduced-fat goodies for traditional holiday fare?
Of course, there are ways to be sensible, but sometimes it's nice to drop your guard and go for the gold. If you walk the line most of the year by eating a balanced diet, holidays may be the one time can let yourself stray.
The bottom line, ultimately, is that we need to eat. If you think about it, food and social interaction go together. Food is almost always shared, whether it be with your best friend or your family. During the holidays, we are surrounded by people where we eat, drink, and catch up on the latest happenings. Face it, you're not in this for nutrition, although it's a bonus if you can pull a good meal out of the buffet line. When you approach the table, your food choices should be yours alone, and you should eat the way you want without feeling any shame afterwards.
Cut Yourself Some Slack
If you think you'll waver too much, set a goal. Be reasonable and remember to focus on what you did accomplish. Beating yourself up is a waste of time and it will make you feel bogged down and overwhelmed. After all, the holidays can be stressful enough.
Try to prioritize what you need to do. Grasp a hold of your inner child and realize that it is okay to be a bit selfish with your time and your diet. The truth is, you cannot do everything and be everywhere. Figure out what is most important to you and follow through with it.
Consider the difference between fact and fiction. You know that gym memberships are going to be advertised through December. They will talk about holiday weight gain and inactivity, while topping it off with some guilt and shame. The real question is, do people really gain up to 10 pounds during this time of year? You may be surprised to find out the answer is a resounding no. Many studies show the average person gains only 1-2 pounds during the winter holiday season. The issue is that most people do not shed that weight, and it adds up over the course of several years.
What does that mean for you? It means you can breathe a bit easier and think about how you would like to lose that pound or two, or maybe even not gain it at all. There are ways to navigate the endless sweets, gravies, and sauces, and still maintain your weight. You have heard it a million times, and it applies here: everything in moderation.
Balance Can Be Key
Like with most things in life, too much of a good thing can turn out to be bad. Here are some tips to help you get from Halloween to New Year's Day with ease:
- Do not skip meals before going to a party. Try to stick to your normal eating routine as much as possible.
- Have a healthy snack ahead of time. This will help curb your hunger and keep you focused.
- When you arrive, check out the spread of food and alcohol, and make a plan.
- Fill your plate with the good stuff first. That means getting to fruits, vegetables, or salad before the desserts.
- Politely refuse food that you do not want.
- Keep track of how much you drink. Alcohol adds calories to whatever you are eating. Consider drinking water in between.
- Think about that one or two pounds. If you're going to indulge, cut back on something else to even yourself out.
Physical activity is also important. If you do exercise, stick as close as possible to your normal routine. If you do not, take a walk around the block. Schedule 30 minutes to do some sort of activity on most days of the week. A good rule to remember is that it is better to do something than nothing. In combination with your holiday eating, it will help you maintain your weight and make you feel better overall.
Remember, the holidays are meant to be fun. Do it on your own terms and leave the bad feelings behind.

The Canisius College women's lacrosse team dominated conference foe Manhattan on Saturday afternoon, 16-4. The Griffs won their seventh-straight game to improve to 9-3 on the season and a perfect 3-0 in MAAC play, while the Jaspers drop to 3-9 and 0-2 in conference play.
Senior Morgan Leonard and sophomore Tori Quinn led the Canisius attack in the win by both recording a career-best seven points. Leonard netted four goals to go along with three assists, while Quinn tallied two goals and registered a personal-best five assists. Sophomore Meghan Cuddy matched Leonard by scoring a game-high four goals, setting her career high.
Seniors Meghan McGunigle and Lindsey Morgan both chipped in two goals in the winning effort, while junior Maria Kotas and sophomore Tori Greco rounded out the scoring for Canisius with a goal apiece.
Sophomore Kayla Scully earned the victory in net by recording three saves before giving way to freshman Claudia Coleates, who recorded five saves in relief.
The two schools got off to a slow start in the contest with neither squad able to score in the first 12-plus minutes of action. The Griffs finally ended the drought when Morgan scored with 17:41 remaining and the team never looked back. Leonard, McGunigle and Quinn then all quickly added tallies as Canisius scored four goals in just under four minutes for a 4-0 lead.
Manhattan broke its scoring drought with 10:56 remaining in the opening half but the Griffs took complete control of the contest by netting the next five goals for a 9-1 advantage. Both schools added two more tallies as the teams headed into the halftime break with Canisius leading, 11-3.
In the dominating first 30 minutes of action, Canisius outshot the Jaspers, 23-7, and held a 10-5 advantage in draw controls.
In the second stanza, Canisius picked up right where it left off in the first half. The Griffs scored the first five goals of the period to put the game out of reach. Manhattan added one final tally but the Griffs ran away with the 16-4 win for the team's seventh-straight victory.
The Griffs finished the game with a 32-15 advantage in shots and held a 13-9 edge in draw controls.
Four different players scored a goal for the Jaspers, while Christina Fiorinelli recorded eight saves between the pipes.
The lone unbeaten remaining in the MAAC, the Griffs continue conference play on Wednesday with a home game against Siena. First draw at the Demske Sports Complex is set for 7:15 p.m.
Game Notes: The Griffs' seven-game winning streak is just one shy of the school record of eight, set in 2011 … Canisius has outscored opponents, 110-40, during the seven-game winning streak (average of 15.7 to 5.7) … The Griffs have won their three MAAC games by an average score of 15.3 to 4.3 … Canisius has won six-straight games against Manhattan and 7-of-8 contests after losing the first eight meetings of the series … The Griffs have scored at least 15 goals in each of the last six games between the two schools … Quinn has recorded at least five points in 8-of-12 games this season … Leonard has scored four goals in five-straight games and 8-of-12 contests this season … Cuddy doubled her previous career high of two goals, set on four occasions.

The Canisius men's basketball team jumped eight spots to No. 14 in this week's Men's Mid-Major Top-25 poll at CollegeInsider.com. The Golden Griffins moved to 16-7 overall and 10-2 in MAAC play last week with a pair of road wins at Quinnipiac and Fairfield.
The Griffs received 331 votes this week to move to No. 14, which makes the Blue and Gold the highest rated MAAC team in the weekly poll. Manhattan, Canisius next opponent, is currently ranked No. 15 and Iona, Canisius opponent on Sunday, is receiving votes this week. Canisius is rated 83rd in the latest NCAA RPI report, released Feb. 3, and the No. 14 rank in the Mid-Major Top-25 poll is the highest for the program in school history.
The CollegeInsider.com Mid-Major Top-25 poll is now in its 15th season. The poll is made up of teams from the following conferences: America East, Atlantic Sun, Big Sky, Big South, Big West, Colonial, Horizon, Ivy, MAAC, Mid-American, MEAC, Missouri Valley, Northeast, Ohio Valley, Patriot, Southern, Southland, SWAC, Summit, Sun Belt, West Coast, the WAC and Division I Independents.Canisius starts this weekend at home on Friday night when Manhattan comes to the Koessler Athletic Center for a nationally-televised home game on ESPNU. The Griffs are currently a half-game ahead of Iona in first place atop the MAAC standings, making this year's team the first since the 1996-97 team to be in first place of the league standings in the month of February. Canisius defeated Fairfield 84-58 Feb. 1 on the road, the program's largest MAAC road victory, and the back-to-back double-digit road wins over Quinnipiac and Fairfield last week marks the first time the Blue and Gold have won back-to-back road conference games by 10-plus points since 1997.

Leslie McDonald's laughter fills a back hallway at the Smith Center for seven full seconds--count it off, it's a long time to laugh--when he is asked how the Dexter Strickland he knows today is different from the one he met on his first day in Chapel Hill.
"Wow," says McDonald, who entered Carolina in the same recruiting class with Strickland and John Henson. "Wow. Let me tell you like this. Dex has made a complete 180. The Dexter of the very first day at Carolina is completely, totally different from the Dexter of today.
"All of us change. It comes with maturity and life experience. But trust me, we laugh about it now."
That Dexter, the one who showed up in the summer of 2009, was a little wild. It's easy to forget sometimes that basketball picks up 13 individuals from all corners of the United States, drops them into Chapel Hill, North Carolina, and tells them to start a life. It's an easier transition for some than for others. Marcus Paige had to deal with a few changes when he moved from Marion, Iowa, to Chapel Hill.
But Strickland? He brought most of Rahway, New Jersey, with him to campus and quickly discovered everything was different. Not just the basketball. Bouncing the ball only took up a few hours each day. He was dealing with a completely different life.
"Where I'm from, you get a little bit of a hardcore mentality," Strickland says. "You've grown up in the streets and that's the way you think. When I was a freshman at Carolina, the things I was experiencing every single day were a whole new world to me. It changed my life."
At Carolina, strangers say hello on the sidewalk. This was a natural fit for Strickland, who is more likely to lose a footrace than meet a stranger. Everyone wanted to talk to him...and he wanted to talk to everyone. He has turned strangers into new friends at the bus stop. He has given his cell phone number to kids at a basketball camp and invited them to contact him. He has been one of the suspected primary orchestrators in a prank war with his teammates.
This new Chapel Hill life was great. Except, as he now realizes, the social aspects early in his college career may have distracted him from the basketball portion of his experience. It's hard to begrudge him, really. If you had a smile like that, and you were on a college campus where everyone knew your name, what would you do?
"What I've learned is that you have to work on your game every single day," says the older, wiser Strickland. "You have to take the game more seriously and it has to be an important part of your life."
Part of that lesson came the hard way, when Strickland tore his ACL last season at Virginia Tech and then had to watch from the bench as Carolina came within a breath of the 2012 Final Four. This year, after working his way back to health, he's been a more committed player.
A night out with friends in the past usually meant hitting Franklin Street. Now, it's not unusual to see him firing jumpers deep into the night at the Smith Center in the hours after a game, his girlfriend sitting on the basket support, watching him. This is life with Dexter Strickland now.
It has paid off. He has 31 assists and three turnovers in his last six games. As it has turned out, losing his blazing quickness for several months may have made him a better basketball player. In the past, he always knew he could beat his man one-on-one off the dribble with pure speed. There have been times this year that he's summoned that speed and found the well more shallow than he remembers--and that's required him to be a basketball player.
"It was so frustrating," he says of the times this year that he knows he could've beaten his man if he'd been at full strength. But he cites the game at Boston College as the turning point, as the first time this year that he felt like himself. The results since then have been impressive; Carolina is 9-2 since that game.
It will be a little strange to see him standing at center court tomorrow all alone (he is the team's lone scholarship senior; walk-on Frank Tanner will also be honored). Since he arrived, it's always been Dexter and...someone. First, it was the inseperable trio of Strickland, John Henson and McDonald. When Henson left, Strickland and McDonald expanded their circle to include Reggie Bullock and P.J. Hairston, and now the quartet is constantly joking about something or someone.
Saturday, however, in the pregame before Carolina-Duke tips off at 9 p.m., Strickland will be all alone at center court. He expects to have nearly a dozen family members in attendance, along with approximately 21, 740 new friends who have watched the kid from Rahway go through the good, the bad and the painful.
To us, perhaps, the Senior Night version of Strickland looks very similar to his very first game against Florida International. Different jersey (he started his career wearing number-5), perhaps, but otherwise the same: same wide grin, same fast first step to the basket, same ability to finish on the break with a graceful finger-roll or even an occasional one-handed dunk.
But in those seconds at midcourt that he is going to remember forever, when we are all looking at him and he is looking back at all of us, Strickland knows he'll be thinking about all the changes he's undergone in four years. "I don't even know how to explain it," he says. "I'm so honored and blessed to be in this position. Carolina has made me a different person."

She looked away for a moment deep in thought and then said Softly, "I loved him very much. But I was only 16 at the time and my mother felt I was tooyoung. Oh, he was so handsome. He looked like Sean Connery, the actor." "Yes," she continued. "Michael Goldstein was a wonderful wow power leveling,person. If youshould find him, tell him I think of him often. And," she hesitated for amoment, almost biting her lip, "tell him I still love him. You know," she saidsmiling as tears began to well up in her eyes, "I never did marry. I guess noone ever matched up to Michael wow power leveling..."
I thanked wow cd keys,Hannah and said goodbye. I took the elevator to the first floor and as I stood by the door, the guard there asked, "Was the old lady able tohelp you?" I told him she had given me a lead. "At least I have a last name. But Ithink I'll let it go for a while. I spent almost the whole day trying to find the owner of this wallet." I had taken out the wallet, which was a simple brown leather case with red lacing on the side. When the guard saw it, he said, "Hey, wait a minute!That's Mr. Goldstein's wallet. I'd know it anywhere with that bright redlacing. He's always losing that wallet. I must have found it in the halls atleast three times wow cd keys."
"Who's Mr. Goldstein?"wow power leveling, I asked as my hand began to shake."He's one of the old timers on the 8th floor. That's MikeGoldstein'swallet for sure. He must have lost it on one of his walks." I thanked the guard and quickly ran back to the nurse's office. I told her what the guard had said. We went back to the elevator and got on. I prayedthat Mr. Goldstein would be up. On the eighth floor, the floor nurse said, "I think he's still in the dayroom. He likes to read at night. He'sa darling old man wow power leveling."
We went World of Warcraft power leveling,to the only room that had any lights on and there was a man reading a book. The nurse went over to him and asked if he had lost his wallet. Mr. Goldstein How is she? Is she still as pretty as she was? Please, please tell me," he World of Warcraft power leveling begged.
"She's fine wow gold,...just as pretty as when you knew her." I said World of Warcraft power leveling."Would you know where that family could be located now?" I asked."I remember that Hannah had to place her mother in a nursing home someyears ago," the woman said. "Maybe if you got in touch with them they might be able to track down the daughter."This whole thing was stupid, I thought to myself. Why was I making such abig deal over finding the owner of a wallet that had only three dollars and aletter that was almost 60 years old?Nevertheless, I called the nursing home in which Hannah was supposed to be living and the man who answered the phone told me, "Yes, Hannah is staying with wow gold us. "
The old man smiled with anticipation and asked, "Could you tell me where
she is? I want to call her tomorrow." world of warcraft power leveling,power leveling[/url],He grabbed my hand and said, "You know something, mister, I was so in love with that girl that when that letter came, my life literally ended. I never married. I guess I've always loved world of warcraft her.

Canisius redshirt sophomore Kevin Bleeker averaged 8.0 points and a team-high 8.1 rebounds per game for the Netherlands in the FIBA U20 European Men's Division B Championship, which was held July 12-21, in Pitesti, Romania. The Netherlands went 2-3 in pool play and ended the tournament in eighth-place overall.
The 6-foot-10, 225-pound center shot 47.8 percent from the field and 70.6 percent from the free throw line to go with 1.3 blocks and 1.3 assists per game in seven contests. He was credited with a double-double in the Netherland's loss to Romania when he scored 10 points to go with 13 boards in 31 minutes. He ranked 11th in the tournament with his 8.1 rebounds per game and he finished the event ranked sixth in blocks per game. His nine total blocks led all players on the Netherlands' roster.
Bleeker opted to redshirt during the 2012-13 season and did not participate in any games. He was able to practice with the team, however. In his freshman season of 2011-12, the Alkmaar, Netherlands native played in 30 games and averaged 2.7 points and 2.8 boards per contest. He scored a career-high 18 points in the Golden Griffins' win at South Dakota Dec. 18, 2011, and he also recorded 10 rebounds in that game for his first collegiate double-double.Bleeker will return to the Griffs' active roster for the 2013-14 campaign. Canisius went 20-14 overall and 11-7 in MAAC play last year, which saw the program earn a berth to the CollegeInsider.com Tournament, the Blue and Gold's first postseason appearance since 1996.

David Andreozzi, AIA, is a Rhode Island–based architect and charter member of the AIA Custom Residential Architects Network (CRAN). This year Andreozzi launched a video series, CRANtv, with Doug Patt, AIA, author of How to Architect (The MIT Press, 2012), which introduces potential clients to the benefits of working with an architect. The video series also underscores the architect's intrinsic value in a media-friendly way. "What people need to understand is what makes architects special," Andreozzi says.
In the few years before working with CRAN, I realized the importance of viral videos in terms of getting the attention of clients. Then, as an active member of CRAN, we chose Doug Patt to speak at our annual CRAN Symposium on his various projects, including the viral videos series based on his 2012 book How to Architect, which focused on teaching young students or non-architects about entering the field of architecture. At that point we opened a dialogue about a possible collaboration. Initially, I thought CRANtv might be a 10-minute interview with a provocative architect. But then I thought that the message of "Who is an architect?" seemed to be the bigger priority.
What I continually tell people is that we are in a predicament right now. We tend to celebrate famous architects and buildings, but what we need to celebrate is the design process. Clients don't need the Corbu glasses and fancy imported fountain pens we all proudly adorn. Clients need someone who is good, who will protect them, and who—most importantly—has a resonant process.
One of the things that I've found through the years is that residential clients don't know a lot about architecture. Commercial clients know more—they work with architects all the time. But, residential clients need a little help in understanding what an architect's training entails and why that training empowers architects to deliver exceptional results.
To that end, Doug and I are working on about 12 videos—covering all aspects of working with architects. What is green? What are contracts? What's the timeline? We're hoping that once these videos go up, other architects will link to them on their websites. The links are quick references that are easily disseminated.
I started out in Pawtucket, R.I., in a six-story building, renting space from a friend who had an architectural practice, and I grew up about 15 miles away in Barrington, R.I., where I practice now—both towns on either side of Providence. The Providence metro area is located between two major design hubs in Boston and New York, where there's a great aptitude for design.
But architects need a broader audience. Look at how cooking shows have proliferated over the last five years alone—and food culture has become popular culture. People understand blanching versus broiling now. Why can't architecture do that?
—As told to William Richards

Hello All-Three weeks ago, I put Apistan strips in the hive and drove to the Midwest and back for a visit to the In-Laws. Last year at this time it was still somewhat warm, so my plan was to remove the strips the week after we returned and finish readying the hive for Winter.Well.. It snowed yesterday and is currently (at 1:00 in the afternoon), 37 degrees fahrenheit. Melissa
Well. I have to explain that this is my first year and I am learning quite a bit as I go. I read the instructions for the Apistan and followed them. .............I put the strips in amongst the "brood".
This meant that I opened the hive and put the strips down, down, down into the bottom deep. A deep that is full of honey is too heavy for me to lift. So, unfortunately I need to remove two shallow supers to get down to the Apistan strips.
I sure don't want to create mitacide resistant mites on top of all of my other first year errors.
Is it possible to remove the top shallow super ...

Immigrant Rights Groups Press Smith on Immigration Reform
Members of a group called the San Antonio Immigrant Youth Movement confronted U.S. Rep. Lamar Smith (R-San Antonio) at his northeast side district office today, urging him to drop his opposition to the immigration reform bill which is now stalled in the House, 1200 WOAI news reports.
Spokesman Diego Mancha said they met with a Smith staffer, who informed them of Smith's position on the issue.
"He stated very firmly that he supports securing the borders," Mancha said. "Before anything, he wants to secure the borders."
Mancha said he pointed out to the staffer that the immigration reform measure which has passed the Senate includes major border security measures, including a doubling of the Border Patrol along the U.S. Mexico border.
The Senate bill is awaiting a vote in the House, where activists like Mancha think it would pass if given an up or down vote. Tea Party activists are pressuring House Speaker John Boehner not to allow the measure, which they decry as 'amnesty' to come up in the House.
"We know his stance is firm against immigration and he won't support it without border security," Mancha said. "But we asked to allow it to be put up for a vote in the House, to support that vote."
This is part of a new aggressive policy by immigration rights groups to push the current reform bill. Many say they are showing up at Republican town hall meetings to confront Republican lawmakers about calling for an up or down House vote on the measure.

Major development projects are taking place in oceans across the globe all the time, enterprises that will provide shelter and food for a vast number of fish, mussels, urchins, and other marine life.
While credit is regularly and duly given to the visible construction crew — coral polyps — recognition is also due the polyps' invisible, but very active algal partners, the zooxanthelle.
These algae (a type called dinoflagellates) live inside the body tissues of coral polyps. Coral polyps take care of some of their nutritional needs on their own by catching tiny protists and organic matter that drift past their tentacles. Their partnership with the chlorophyll-containing algae enable them to also get food from sunlight as if they were plants.
The zooxanthelle do the actual work of converting the sunlight into energy via photosynthesis. The by-products they generate (organic carbons such as glycerol and sugars) are excellent nutrients for their polyp hosts.
The zooxanthellae supply much of the polyps' energy needs. In turn, the polyps provide the algae a protected, stable environment and nutrients they need for growth, such as nitrates and phosphates. Zooxanthellae also increase the rate of coral calcification, the growth of the hard shells that form the actual reef structures.

Marian Minor, Physical Therapist, Ph.D.: The proper use of a properly fitted cane can make a very large difference in a person's life. Many people know a cane's good, but they don't know how to use it, where to use it and how high it should be, what the safety considerations are.
Dr. Roland Moskowitz: The use of the cane in the opposite hand -- most people use it in the same side which is not the best way to use it -- takes a lot of stress off that extremity. Some people who have difficulty will benefit from having orthotics in their shoes to redistribute the weight at the knee. Occupational therapy is important in the overall management -- the non-pharmacological management -- because patients have lost a function. For example, one of the early complaints of osteoarthritis to the hip is, "I can't put my socks on -- I can't bend over to put my shoes on." A simple instrument -- such as long-handled tongs -- to put on one's socks or put on one's shoes may make a big difference.

Good job. You ready to give them a frame of eggs? Might be good if you didn't get queenBailey.
Did you see any eggs or any day old larva. If You did, they should be able to make a Q.
What a neat hole. How did you know where the colony was?It's a shame the tree will be going. You could add a little verandah and it would make a nice perch for a koala or whatever.Lone
You could have shaped that tree into a "tiki head" and really made a statement!Scott

Amber Case:
We are all cyborgs now
Technology is evolving us, says Amber Case, as we become a screen-staring, button-clicking new version of homo sapiens. We now rely on "external brains" (cell phones and computers) to communicate, remember, even live out secondary lives. But will these machines ultimately connect or conquer us? Case offers surprising insight into our cyborg selves.

Fox Pushes "Are You Better Off" Question Again, Doesn't Mention That We Are
Blog ››› ››› TERRY KREPEL
Fox News continues to push the idea that Americans aren't "better off" than they were four years ago, ignoring that the U.S. economic situation has improved from the economic free-fall occurring at this time in 2008.
On the October 22 edition of Fox & Friends, a segment featuring Michael Reagan was prefaced by a clip of his father, President Ronald Reagan, asking in a 1980 debate, "Are you better off than you were four years ago?" Michael Reagan argued that Mitt Romney should point out that "the only people really better off today than they were four years ago is Barack Hussein Obama and, of course, the vice president of the United States, Joe Biden."
Fox News has a history of asking the "better off" question regarding this year's presidential election -- 26 times in August alone. And more often than not, Fox fails to provide the background needed to answer that question.
Indeed, neither Reagan nor the Fox & Friends hosts mentioned that the economy was rapidly contracting at this time four years ago. Gross domestic product declined by an annualized rate of 8.9 percent during the fourth quarter of 2008, and more than 3.2 million jobs were lost from September 2008 to January 2009. Today, the economy is on the rise, supported by steady job growth.
Reagan also noted that former President Bill Clinton said at the Democratic National Convention that "the economy was so bad neither he or any of his predecessors could have fixed it, "adding, "Ronald Reagan fixed the economy in three years." That statement ignores that the the 2008 recession was much different than the one in the early 1980s. Predictably, the Fox & Friends hosts said nothing to correct this falsehood.
Economists agree that the recovery from the early 1980s recession was driven by interest rates declining from the unusually high levels to which they had been raised in order to curb inflation. Now, the Federal Reserve has already lowered interest rates to near zero, no longer making that option available as it was to Reagan. Further, the recent recession was caused by a fiscal crisis, and those recessions require more time to recover.

|64 fairlane 500
|thanks guys i just ordered that comp cam and lifters, matching valve springs and some roller rockers. i also got there pushrods. thanks to everybody
|painted jester
[QUOTE=cobalt327]Not suitable for street duty in a car, it has a granny low, it's a HD truck tranny.
As for the heads, etc. I'd advise you to get an adjustable valve train on it. To try to juggle p-rod length to get the right lifter preload is not a first-timer's deal, IMO. Not saying it can't be done- I AM saying that it's not easy to get right, it IS easy to get wrong- and if you get it wrong enough, the valves and pistons can hit and p-rods get bent, or the valves get held off the seats and get burnt and/or the engine runs like crap.
Louis: Cobalt is telling you right on, and If you run anti pump up lifters and set them with the adjustable rockers at .001" or .002" you wont have to worry about lifter pre load The only thing I can add is when installed, where the rocker adjuster and push rod meet there should only be 2 or 3 threads of the adjuster showing under the rocker, if there are more your push rods need to be longer!! You can use lash caps to take up minor changes like .040, .060, .080 etc!!! I just did a ford 427 tunnel port and I needed about 1/4 inch longer push rods on the intakes and about 1/8 longer on the exhausts to get the adjustable rockers in the right geometry! So get a couple of adjustable push rods to get your geometry right and then measure them to get your right length! Make sure you check all 16 push rod lengths (at every rocker) with these adjustable push rods measuring each and then getting an average of the lengths you measured and that's the length you need! You pm'ed me your in high school and on a real tight budget? I also see by your pms that you really want to learn ) And from what I read your looking at a used cam and valve train? Am I right? If I am Be careful buying used, check all valve spring pressures, mike the wear on the cam (each lobe) and the bearing surfaces, check every roller rocker for any flaws, check every push rod for straightness ( if they can even be used, you must put each part back on the way it came off the other engine, If you put a used lifter on a different lobe then its been broke in on it will do damage (9 out of 10 times) You should also order new rocker arm shafts and eliminate any flaws or wear your old shafts may have from years of use.
Like Cobalt says that trans has to go, call some trucking outfits or trans shops maybe one will buy it for a good price or even trade for a trans you can use if you chip in some cash. What city & state are you in? One of us might live right around the corner from you , you never know!
You picked "one of the hardest" engines there is to learn with by your self Even with a stack of books its very very hard without a hands on instructor (that's very knowledgeable on ford side oilers!!!) There are so many things books and the internet take for granted a person already knows that isn't covered at all But if you learn it right and don't take short cuts you'll be leaps ahead of most mechanics, and will have something you can be proud of and remember when your old and on a site like this helping some other guy!!
On your budget don't worry about High priced aluminum heads, you can get em later. and on the ford particularly if your deck or heads have been milled any time in the past you have to mill the bottom of the intake and sometimes the port faces<and make sure if your mocking up the engine for measuring your push rods that you use the head gasket thickness you'll use when the engine is assembled! If you had a valve job done make sure all your valve stem tip heights are the same (Put a long straight edge across all the stem tips on each head and look and see if any are short ( on the side oilers this is very important) look between the stem tips and straight edge even take a picture and post it and post on this thread what you see if you cant post the pics (I for one am very interested)
The side oilers rip bell housings apart so dont run that old truck housing!! or an aluminum!!! Ford made a (bullet proof ) nodular housing but their very rare (like the nodular 9 inch rear ). See if you can get a good used lakewood or equivalent!! Im guessing the 352 you started with is a heavy (lugger) truck engine?
Even with adjustable rockers you have to set valve lash on side oilers with conventional hydraulic lifters collapsed!!! there is no such thing as any 3/4 turn or 1/2 turn ETC, ETC from zero !!!! The only way you can get around this is to run ".000 lash anti pump up lifters" set em at .001" or .002 hot & running or you could change your mind and run a solid cam and put down some real power (But you still have to worry about push rod length) LOL and Firebird suggested a very good cam for your build with probably very little valve train work if any!!
I pit crewed & ran G.M., I also pit crewed & ran Fords & Chrysler's I even ran ford & chryslers engines in chevys, at the strips LOL ! And their great powerful engines!! Im Into Chevy engines for myself now, But still do engine work on the old Fords & Chryslers! Im really surprised at work done By the new breed of mechanics now that really shouldn't even put their hands on these old engines. In michigan we have a Pre 1972 certification!! I dont know if other states do!

|thanks f-bird when i looked at the reviews they said it was a show camthanks for everthing! louis

Go w/something like (you seem to like Comp):
And bolt them on a set of (budget permitting) Edelbrock Ford FE RPM aluminum heads. The heads are similar to the medium riser 427 heads. And whatever else you do or don't do- lose the stock cast iron boat anchor (80 pounds or so) intake manifold and put headers on it.

hey 68 nova its the bottom one the t-18.
|painted jester
500]ok here is the specs for the lunati cam advertised duration 300/300, valve lift .514/.514[/QUOTE]
Heres all the specs on the cam your looking at Louis: call Lunati and check it out before you make the deal! See exactly what changes in valve train geometry you may need to do if any!! If its a used cam and components (push rods, springs,Etc. and was set up for a different F.E. they may be quite different then what your F.E. valve train specs are!!! Especially if it was run in a 427 ,medium rise or high rise, or 428 Your push rods would be completely different in length !!! The way to do it is when you buy the cam and lifters and necessary springs and retainers set at proper height and its assembled With the valve completely closed on the heal of the cam lob and the lifter completely collapsed you measure the gap between the valve stem tip and the rocker arm and pick a length push rod that will give you a lash measurement of between .100" and .200" if you run an anti pump up lifter or a roads type you decrease the gap accordingly! I said there are no short cuts
You could swap the same cam into 3 different 390s and have different length push rods in each engine. Or different thickness lash caps!
The reason for this is the different decks or if the valve stems have been dressed, Different stem heights because of machining (valves set deeper in the seat), weather the heads have been milled, different head gasket thickness Etc, Etc. You could even have different length push rods from cylinder to cylinder But that's usually done with lash caps!! The ford F.E is not a cookie cutter chevy it has to be precise its not forgiving! You must keep the rockers on the shaft in their proper geometry to the push rod and the valve stem tip even if you get adjustable rockers you have to keep this geometry ( its the same with all rocker shaft engines !! I dont think it can be explained much better then I just tried!

cam specs
ok here is the specs for the lunati cam advertised duration 300/300, valve lift .514/.514
|painted jester
Stay away from that summit carb !!! The carb build firebird suggested is a very easy build and will flow very well and should be well in your budget rather then spending big money for a comparable carb new and then modifying it to fit your build !
The old 406 and 390 interceptor (Police cars) ran lifts of around .480 .490 hydraulic to as high as .524 solid (actual lift .498 at the valves minus the lash) in the 427s!! So you should stay with a cam at or a little bellow .500 lift and as firebird said call crain or comp or isky or racer brown and they will set you up with a cam grind where you wont need to radically alter your valve geometry! I would have thought you would have already called & posted what they said its a tole free #! And over the years they've probably already done the exact grind you need and have all the specs or could tell you a grind they already have setting right on the shelf gathering dust!!! If you don't see it in a catalog it doesn't mean they don't have it! If you get a thumper 500 or more lift you'll be putting big money in your valve train and not get the performance for the money!
If thats a t-18 trans sell it and look for a T-10 or super t-10. That T-18 may have a creeper gear for a dump truck I dont know your age but Im guessing your young and need a lot of help. Oh The F.E stands for ford engine I myself call them side oilers LOL

hey guys i was looking on comp when i came across the thumpr cam. do you guys think they gain power or are they just show cams? oh it is a ford fe.

|ya its a car i got the tranny with the engine. i think its a borg and warner t-18 but i am not for sure.

T- 18s a heavy duty truck trans are you building a 3/4 or 1 ton truck or did you mean T-10 I thought you were building a car?

Arsène Wenger is delighted that Faye White is expecting her first child - and has backed her to continue her distinguished career.
The Arsenal Ladies captain announced last Wednesday that she is pregnant and the news prompted her to call time on her international career.
But Wenger believes that White could return for the Gunners once her baby is born.
"It is important that our Ladies give some hope to the masculine football team that they can get some great players if he is a boy!" he told the Official Matchday Programme.
"She has had a long career, a great career, and I am not sure it is the end of it because she can still decide to go on. But I am happy for her."

Olivier Giroud is confident Arsenal's form will soon improve - but says they must start to defend better as a team.
The France international has scored four goals in his last four games, including a superb brace in Saturday's 3-3 draw against Fulham.
The 26-year-old is pleased with his own contributions of late, but believes the side must tighten up defensively if they are to return to winning ways.
"I am finding my place in this team, I feel better and better," Giroud told Arsenal Player.
"I try to give my all for the team, I work hard in training and I feel good. But I can't be very happy because we only drew.
"We have conceded a lot of goals against us. If we always concede two or three goals it will be difficult to win, so we have to improve.
"But it is not only [about] the defenders, it is the whole team."

Green Bay Clinches Share of Horizon League Title
By: Andrew Gavin (@GBGavin)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) – Led by stellar play in singles, Green Bay (15-6, 5-0 HL) defeated Wright State (12-9, 3-1 HL) 5-2 in men's tennis action on Saturday afternoon, staying perfect in conference play and clinching at least a share of the program's first Horizon League regular season title in the process. Held at Western Racquet and Fitness Club, it was the final home match of the season for the Phoenix.
The Phoenix will look to win the Horizon League title outright with a win against Detroit in its regular season finale on Sunday, April 21 in Valparaiso, Ind. Green Bay will then defend its tournament title from 2012 at the Horizon League Championship in Indianapolis from April 26-28.
Wright State took the match's first point by winning two of the three doubles matches, but as has been the case throughout its run through the Horizon League schedule, Green Bay's singles play was dominant. The Phoenix entered Saturday with a combined singles record of 21-3 in league action.
Senior Craig Cox (Surrey, England) and freshmen Howard Scott (Exeter, England) and Leopold Gomez Islinger (Weiden, Germany) posted the first singles wins in straight sets as Green Bay took a 3-1 lead. Cox posted a 6-4, 6-2 win at #3 singles, Gomez Islinger earned a 6-3, 6-1 victory at #4 and Howard Scott breezed to a 6-4, 6-1 win at #5.
Freshman Rowan Isaaks (London, England) clinched the match at #6 singles, breaking the serve of Dan Hyman up 6-5 to claim a 6-4, 7-5 win.
With the match decided, sophomore Michael Tenzer (Neuried, Germany) was looking to stay perfect in league play at #1 singles and strengthen his bid for Horizon League Player of the Year. Tenzer fell behind 5-0 and lost the opening set before rallying past WSU junior Hayden Joblin 3-6, 6-2, 6-4.
Tenzer teamed with freshman Joey Leto (Downers Grove, Ill.) for the lone doubles win of the afternoon for the Phoenix as the duo claimed a 9-7 win at #3 doubles.
No. 1 – Michael Tenzer (GB) def. Hayden Joplin (WSU), 3-6, 6-2, 6-4
No. 2 – Lauri Makikalli (WSU) def. Erik Finkenbrink (GB) 6-7, 6-3, 1-0

D.J. Fluker Scouting Report
|Alabama Crimson Tide
|Jersey Number:
|Height & Weight:
|6'6 - 335 lbs.
|Draft Prediction:
|First Round
|40-Yard Dash
|Bench press
|Broad jump
2013 NFL Draft Prospect Scouting Report:
D.J. Fluker, OT, Alabama
Fluker is at his best when he can come off the line and drive right into his opponent. Great height and ideal size. There are concerns about his playing weight and he must stay at his current listed weight. Has had issues with staying healthy in his life, but has come a long way in this regard.
Lateral agility is lacking and can get sloppy fast when tiring. Plays with a good motor though and looks to dominate. Technique is sporadic at times. Relies too much on size and strength rather than staying fundamentally sound. Lunges with his upper body will throw him off-balance. All this said, when he takes on a blocker and gets good hand placement, it is over and can dominate smaller defensive ends with ease. Does not move well in space and would have trouble in a zone-heavy blocking scheme.
Fluker projects as a first round pick in the 2013 NFL Draft.
1 Comment | Add Yours
I think he can play right tackle or either guard position. Could end up in Cincinnati since they and Andre Smith can't seem to get on the same page as far as a contract goes.
