It seems that, without even knowing it, we're all working together to limit nonprofit innovation.
In the nonprofit sector, risk (an important element in innovation) is stifled due to nonprofits' need for multiple stakeholder acceptance in order to survive. This makes large-scale change difficult, if not impossible, and the only way that we will solve this is if we put our minds together to think about it.
Let's take the hot topic of increasing salaries for nonprofit leaders (though we could pick any topic that challenges perceived sector constraints). A nonprofit might seriously consider higher salaries in order to attract high-quality leaders, establish itself professionally, or ensure that competition for the position allows the organization to choose– or continue to motivate– the best candidate for the job. This could be a great idea. It could work wonders. But questioning sector constraints at all is often much like trying to give a big hug to a hand grenade. Here's why:
- The board and staff will need to approve this risk. In the case of increasing employee salaries, they will consider that every extra dollar given to a staff member is a dollar that could be spent on programming. These immediate stakeholders must believe in the potential of the idea.
- Then the nonprofit will have to face the multiple foundations that may no longer award the nonprofit otherwise-much-deserved grants because their administrative costs exceed (or come close to) a percentage set by the foundation in advance.
- You have to face the people who don't understand why you made this change (regardless of its nobility), and the media may tear you apart. Even worse, other nonprofit leaders at The Chronicle of Philanthropy may even give you bad press for trying to take a risk to aid in sector evolution.
- Your amount of in-kind donations over the year may suffer because of the bad press– which defeats your whole attempt at innovation because you can no longer afford to pay a higher-than-before salary to your employees… so you are back where you started– but with fewer funds, a lot of bad press, alienated foundation connections, and unhappy employees.
In the private sector, innovation breeds new business practices and monetary success. The system is quite simple: a firm must gather capital to take a risk, take that risk, and if the company makes a profit, they are onto something. Other companies catch onto the company's new tactic and next thing we know, every company has to be doing that innovative thing in order to continue to stay in the game. The same is true for nonprofit organizations except, in the nonprofit sector, raising capital may mean raising social capital.
So what can be done to alter sector constraints in order to allow nonprofit professionals to be innovative in organizational management?
First, double loop learning must take place. Double loop learning occurs when leaders question their own basic assumptions about the world. Single loop learning, by comparison, is the tried-and-tested routine that we fall into when we do everyday things like write grants and conduct meetings– but we also use single loop learning when we devise wages (continuing with the case of nonprofit salaries as our example). We have an idea of what works and we stick to it. Double loop learning, on the other hand, makes us ask ourselves, "Why do we do X? Maybe I should be doing Y." When we ask this question, possibilities are born.
Second, the nonprofit must be transparent about their new idea and share it among networks. The nonprofit could ask for input via social media networks, get dialogues going with staff members; make everyone (stakeholders especially) aware of the possible benefit of taking this risk. This includes spreading word about the importance of innovation among stakeholders, the public, and other nonprofit groups. Technology is a great mechanism for information-share, and getting brain juices flowing. Who knows? A few other nonprofits may consider the idea and try it out alongside you.
Through this, social capital is created. Spreading the message creates connections. Asking people for their input (even if it's negative) creates connections. Connections build social capital. Social capital increases overall support of the new practice because friends and community partners can share your idea with their own networks, and become part of idea formation and collaboration.
Then intellectual capital is built as stakeholders become educated on the issue. The more people hear about the issue, the more educated they will become on the need for innovation, or rather, the more accepting they will be when you actually follow through in challenging sector constraints. Lets go back to the example of a nonprofit taking on higher administration costs to motivate employees. If we learn that there's a nonprofit leadership deficit on the way, then we may be more likely to outwardly encourage and support (or at least understand) nonprofits that are raising employee salaries.
And finally, the innovation is accepted. This does not mean that people will agree with your new (hopefully) innovative practice– but, because of your transparency, they will fully understand why you have challenged sector constraints, and also that you have the best interests of the community you serve at heart. And whether they agree with the idea or not, folks may be more inclined to respect the idea. Foundations may still award grants to the organization, and donors may stick around for at least another year. Who knows? Maybe your active desire to contribute to the sector and your fresh views of management will earn you a few more donors.
This theory is just that: a theory. I do not know how to encourage nonprofits to take responsible risks and challenge constraints that hold them back in serving their mission. I do know that, if the sector means to evolve, nonprofit leaders must begin to think about blazing new trails— and we should think about ways to allow them to do so.

text: Otto Prutscher was a prominent member of the Wiener Werkstätte and a former student of Hoffmann. This plant stand, as well as a number of designs for similar plant stands by Prutscher, was produced by Beißbarth & Hoffmann AG, a manufacturer in Mannheim-Rheinau, Germany. Its architectonic design represents a particularly advanced take on the new geometry. The black-and-white checkerboard of painted squares is echoed in the alternating tiers of square cachepots. The motif is similar to one employed at the time in Glasgow by Charles Rennie Mackintosh, whose work was well known and admired in Vienna.

I was having second thoughts about posting this so early. But, as anybody knows in costuming, time flys by very fast so I guess it really couldn't hurt. It is the 30th Anniversary of Empire, and that is THE Star Wars film I dig the best, for very obvious reasons. The tone of this event, with Boba Fett being such a promiment character of Empire, is gonna be rogue. Which will translate to great partying during the evening hours :cheers.
So, are there any Clones here that are considering going to Celebration V ?

No more Florida hanging chads and judges deciding elections.
i am rethinking the democracy thing though. there are more conservatives than liberals and they tend to be more involved. institute real democracy and we can take over the country forever! no welfare, no extended unemployment, no food stamps, no SSI "disability".....yup, maybe it's a good idea!
Go computerized and I can guarantee more problems, lost votes, servers down during critical times denying people vote, etc. I'm a programmer...I know what kind of stuff can go wrong
How many of you file your taxes electronically? If online filing of taxes is safe enough for you, surely online voting is too!
Kathy, Since there is no test needed to vote, then no one voting now is statistically "wiser" at voting than anyone who chose a computer to cast a vote
"Bee Nuts,Do you really think online voting would change the political landscape?"No, to truly change the landscape of politics you need to vote "Bee-Nuts" for President!
I really can see the criminal element opening up something similar to a cybercafe and paying people to come in and cast their ballot for the boughten politician of the day.Can you say electoral speak easy. If you don't think that element is out there waiting to exploit something like that,you may need to rethink the scenario.Many of these people would be voting from phone apps,you know to be sure they are not excluded. I can see a large vote fraud being perpetrated this way. I am sure even in my rural area there would be people eager to use my cyber ID to cast my vote. Heck they might even offer a couple bucks here if a large contract were in the cards.
But all that would average out, different pond, same fish is all.
the reason 60+ % of the people don't vote is because they are lazy and uninvolved. it's not because they don't have access. go pick 10 friends. ask them who their congressmen are, any judgeships that you guys vote for, or even your local elected officials. i bet at least 60% of your own friends don't know who has been elected.what you both are saying is that you want to make it easier for lazy and uninformed people to vote. most of of the 47% don't vote unless there is a threat to their handouts. you want to make it easier for them to vote?....because you know they all have computers and smart phones even if they claim they can't feed themselves. sure...lets encourage the lazy, uninformed, and welfare class to have a greater say in how things are done. i'm pretty sure that it will work out well for all of us because you know they'll vote for the good of the country.
If we don't have a Democracy in America why are we always try to impose it on other countries? That position is at the core of the JBS faithful and just doesn't jive w/ reality.[
>Meanwhile we know FRAUD at the poling places exist nearly everywhere, with checks and balance left at local levels, if at all. A Federal Voting System using high secure passwording which locks out any repeat attempts at voting would STOP the "Vote as often as you can" syndrome we read about.The only reason we have reasonably honest elections is BECAUSE things happen at a local level. Any country where the voting is handled at a federal level is totally corrupt. As Stalin said, it's not the people who vote who decide the election, but the people who count the votes. When the people who count the votes are the people in power, they will always win. We have a fairly uncorrupted system BECAUSE every local election board counts those votes and reports them to the news media and the state. If the numbers the state reports are different than the numbers the local board reported to the news media, then something is wrong. I have no doubt a few dead people vote for both sides in every election. But it probably all evens out. Sorry but I can't agree w/ that, there hasn't been an evening out for a very long time :-D.Short term memory warning ahead: Florida 2000, a corrupt State system, further corrupted by a corupted federal court system (and no one goes to jail?). When both State and Fed voting systems are corrupt, what's the solution then...................? None of us know who is really doing the counting, or should I say deciding, especially when less than half (its about 20% in my County) bother to vote in 'local' elections. Some have a pretty good idea though.Is JBS still around? Are you kidding? They are alive and thriving and currently headquartered in Wisconsin, been around these folks all my life, the two sides of Wisconsin politics, progressive populists and well disguised fascists. JBS positions and opinions permeate the airwaves every day, you can't escape their message, although JBS doesn't necessarily lay claim to it (they're too smart for that).MB said; If the federal government runs the election then you can count on whoever is in power at the time remaining in power unless and until there is a violent revolution to overthrow them. How would you hold the federal government accountable for a bad election? How would you prove it? There would be no physical ballots to count. No reconciliation with the rolls, the number of ballots sent out and the number returned voted, unvoted and discarded. There would be no audit trail to follow to prove any corruption, that couldn't have been faked. One electron pretty much looks like the next...Many already don't have a way to 'physically' count votes. Voting with the machines they've persuaded most areas to adopt is a big issue w/ keeping track of votes and then allowing ONE company to dominate the landscape also allows corruption to seep in. Right now we have corporate America running elections, I'd rather have more involvement from the feds in this capacity at least, certainly more enforcement. Of course any system success depends on the willingness to put lawbreakers in jail, still waiting :roll:thomas

One of the first patients to be treated with Protonsil is Domagk's daughter who has a streptococcal infection that is unresponsive to other treatments. Near death, she is injected with large quantities of Protonsil and makes a dramatic Viagra recovery. Domagk is awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine or Physiology in 1939.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
Yeah, try pages 154-155 Nigel Calder''s "Boatowner''s Mechanical and Electrical Manual" for a photo and description of the No-Strike device (Island Technology, Cherry Hill, NJ). Calder also recommends proper electrical grounding (page 150), which is also worthy of some serious study.
I know it''s late, but I had to work the freaking late shift again at the boat store, and it looks like I may be doing so til the end of time or the finding of another job.
Anyway, there are plenty of sharks off the Carolina shore (like Myrtle Beach - I used to live in Little River). Just as there are many sharks in any coastal area. As stated above, just because you don''t see them, don''t think they aren''t there. The most aggresive I ever saw was, believe or not, a blue tip that followed our boat from just out of the jetty til it lost interest. This was right after a week of tumultuous storms in the area. I only hope it didn''t turn back and bite a swimmer. Unfortunately, and against my wishes, others aboard threw him bits of meat and such - there were a few onboard who did throw morsels of their lunch overboard to tempt him, and he devoured every one. There are many, many breeds, and many temperaments. I have been circled for 4 days, while becalmed (later we learned to take more fuel), with nothing more than a languid glance from a 15 foot thresher. He appreciated the leftovers thrown overboard - became like a big pet that ate the leftover chicken and broccoli and such. Now, when you are 1,000 miles out - there is nowhere to put your garbage! He was persistent, I must say, obviously responding to the resonating sounds from the boom, but never ever made an effort to attack while I was on the transom washing out the pots from dinner. Needless to say, I didn''t get the nerve up to do this til he had been around a day. After a day and a half, my thought was, if he eats me, who is the one throwing him the grub, cause the others were too afraid to even lean over the gunwale, he won''t get anything else to eat. I sent that vibe out, and it worked, I guess, cause I was the one who volunteered to wash out the pots and he never made a move on me. Believe me, I was barely hanging out there, and always ready to jump back. On the afternoon of the fourth day we actually got to set some sail. He left. I saved some of my chicken and broccoli and rice that night, covering it with plastic wrap, hoping he would come back. I was awakened for my watch - the midwatch, my least fave. I took my bowl to the cockpit, ate some of it. It was a full moon. About 45 minutes into my watch - there he was. He stayed with us the next 2 days, only coming close at night, for some reason, getting a scream or two from the other crew member (a ''well-seasoned sailor'' who wrote, at the time, for a prominent sailing magazine). So, even the most vicious denizens of the deep can be tamed for a bit by broccoli, I suppose.
NOT recommending ever tossing anything overboard for the feeding of sharks, just sharing my story of life at sea.
Fair Winds,
and remember, this is their home,
I used to sail a Laser off of Myrtyle Beach,SC. Saw a lot of sharks dolphins and turtles. One shark 3'' followed me about 6'' behind for a few minutes. Once while I was circling a big ball of mullet a 4-5'' shark jumped clear of the water and went into the middle of the mullet ball. I didn''t know that sharks jumped until that happened. Once I saw a very large fin that almost scared me to death. Fortunately it was going away from me. Overall I saw the most sharks within a 100 yards of the beach. Usually they were following schools of fish. My wife saw a 12'' hammerhead inside of the breakers!!!!
While scuba diving in the Bahamas I was impressed by how curious and sneaky reef sharks can be. One cam up behind my buddy about a 6''er went to within 2'' of his head and then left. On the surface he confessed that he hadn''t seen the shark. On the same trip as was near the surface and watched a larger shark approach a couple from behind. It checked them out closely. Back on the boat they were completely unaware of the close encounter. I''ve never had one show the least aggression to me. But a buddy had one take a speared fish from him. As he was swiming away it bit his fin. I didn''t believe him until he showed me the teeth marks on his fin.
If you are out with 2 small children, don''t both go in the water at the same time. And don''t get offshore and then have one of you searching in the sun for the body of someone who may have bitten by a shark. Be a responsible parent first. A bucket on a line works just as well for cooling you off, and if you really need that much cooling off, then think of the kids and how hot they are, so why should you be out there? (And I have been around kids circum with their parents.)
No matter how much you are scared of them, no matter how you want to blame "dive tours" for feeding them, remember - sharks will not jump into your boat to get you. They will eat what is convenient. I have had a 15 foot thresher circling a boat in the doldrums for 3 days. He lived, evidently, on leftovers we had to throw overboard, but we were not "feeding him", we just didn''t have the wind or fuel to move. He never made a move to jump on the boat. Don''t go for the evening swim together because it''s "romantic" and you will have no problem. I have known people who have sailed with their kids everywhere, the Atlantic, the Pacific, did a circum, etc., but never did I hear a worry from the parents about sharks eating them because they wanted to go for a swim.
Shark attacks are very rare. Sharks usually feed at night and during twilight. Sharks are curious and may approach you. I have dove with white tips and hammerheads. After investigating you, they recognize you are not food and move on.
Sharks detect the electrical impulses in your muscles and bodily fluids like blood and urine. Do not confuse them with excessive splashing or attract them by fishing or chumming.
Sharks attack by first biting the victim once. They then let the victim die before eating the dead victim. If you are bit by a shark, if you can get to safety, you should survive.
Ahoy sanuni, I have some nice shark straps I use to keep my suitcases on deck with. Caught em in shallow water after I dove down and hit em on the head wit a wrench I stole in Tampa. Big Red 56 the Pirate of Pine Island.
I agree that the risk is small (except for the poor bastard who was eaten), but I do not buy into the shallow water bit. Why do people rob banks that is where the money is. Why do sharks attack people in shallow water that is where the people are.
Last year I saw a gory video of a marine biology student loose her leg while swimming with 6-7 others next to two boats some 20 miles off the coast (I believe it was Argentina). She may have survived and the actual attack took only one pass, about 2 seconds, but it was messy and she will never be the same.
This fall, while in Spain, the evening news was showing a herd of Great Whites feeding on the carcass of a dead whale (tour boats where bringing people in to see the sight and some idiot actually was videoed walking on the carcass while 10+ sharks thrashed about pulling chunks off the dead whale... it was a very big whale... apparently the man had no difficulty getting back on board and was unhurt. The news was questioning whether he should be arrested for his stupidity).
Last, people who actually fish for shark rarely do so in shallow water. How many Great Whites have been caught from the beach?
Again, it is unlikely, but I wouldnt say it is nearly impossible.
PS- Thanks for the tip, but I am having trouble keeping the suitcases on deck :-)
Hi Sanuni
Statistics can not be trusted as you are right that being in the water increases the risk of being attacked of sharks.
However, statistics about being in shallow water for instance, is based on behaviorism of different spieces, for instance the great white that is warmblooded and are specialized in sea-mammals will be found near land and thus attacking people more often then the Blueshark, a deep water shark not known to attack people at all. Last year there were 34 sharkattacks in Florida, one leathal...
Statistically it''s alomost impossible to get killed by a shark. However no boat with six yellow suitcases stacked on the foredeck has ever sunk and statistically that''s very good. In real life, it doesn''t help that much:-)
I have to agree that I always try to read statistics with a wary eye. I, too, have always thought that the shallow vs. deep water statistic was misinterpreted since (as you say), the vast majority of people swimming in ocean waters are in shallow water.
I also know what you mean about the psychological difference between being smashed inside a steel shell (car), or chomped by an eating machine (shark). But worst of all is being run-through by a pirate''s cutlass, don''t you think
Fair winds,
Statistically most shark attacks occur in shallow water b/c MOST PEOPLE ARE IN SHALLOW WATER. And more people are struck by lightning b/c EVERYONE is exposed to thunderstorms. But does anyone really know how many attacks are reported per thousand hours spent frolicking in the deep sea somehow I feel more comfortable being struck by a car than eaten by an animal.
PS- Good advice, but who the hell chooses to swim while actively bleeding? Darwin at work.

|The plastic clips do not have more holding power, especially over time. They get brittle when they get older. I use the Au-Ve-Co 12134 clip for door panels, but you're going to have to use something a lot stronger to hold the headliner in with that much weight. This is an offset clip, so the holes in the panels have to be offset 5/8" from the holes in the door. FWIW, the aluminum may have been free, but it's going to rattle, especially the headliner. You may want to re-think this project.
|26 Stude
attach alum door panels and headliner
What is the best clip to attach aluminum door panels and headliner? I have a 26 Studebaker tudor sedan. My plan is to use .040 aluminum sheets for the door panels wrap them with foam and cloth and use some type of clip to push the panel in place. The same with the roof panel which is a 1 piece alum sheet, I lifted the windshield, curl the panel some what and slide into place. I was going to fiberglass the clips in place on the alum and push the panels on, not that easy. The wire clips I purchased do not have enough strength to hold the roof panel up which weighs about 17 lbs without the foam and fabric. I saw an interior going in this way, well at least the door panels were being done this way, I thought it was a pretty good idea, being the alum was free. Do the plastic Christmas tree clips have more holding power than the wire clips. I like the idea of the alum, then there will not be any roof bows or seams showing. Anyone one else use alum for the panels or should I start over with some thing else?

Radio talk show host Glenn Beck was hugging his daughter after her wedding when he heard his wife yell for help, as their SUV began to slide down a hill in the in Finger Lakes Region. The political commentator's wife had just gotten their son out of the SUV, and was still holding onto the door handle, when the vehicle started to slide down a slippery hill and barrel-rolled several times. Beck yelled to his wife to "let it go" since nothing could be done to prevent the impending crash and his sole concern was the safety of his wife and son; there were no other people or vehicles in the path of Beck's sliding SUV.
Finger Lakes Daily News has learned the wedding was held over the Columbus Day Weekend at Suzanne Fine Regional Cuisine on Route 414 in the Seneca County Town of Lodi.
Photos from TheBlaze.com
After the SUV slid down the hit and crashed, the fiscally conservative news personality simply encouraged his family to go on inside their rented cottage, say their prayers, and go to sleep after a day which was both wonderfully and woefully emotional. A member of Glenn Beck's security detail ran to the vehicle as it started to slide, fearing the little boy was still inside, the man fortunately escaped from the path of the sliding SUV just before it began to tumble, according to The Blaze.
Fireworks over the Finger Lakes suprised the wedding party.

Re: Quit Hoping - Love Is Dead
The Latin on this shirt is incorrect. The author used an internet translator. I am a Latin scholar and know that "Diligo est Mortuus" means "To regard highly is dead." Diligo is a first person, singular verb. The true translation for "love is dead" is "Amor est mortuus." Wearing this shirt as is, would be an embarassment to Latin. Please change the translation!

True data.
well I am happy that you aren't taking this personally. I find it incredibly humorous that somebody would pick your style to 'emulate'. 'Cause we all know it's not likely to win with the woot crowd. Since they probably didn't do it to try and win, it was more than likely a nasty minded jab at your (small but devoted) fan base. So I hope you don't mind if your fans get angry. In any case, I thought it was more reminiscent of your earlier style and not as well done as your recent stuff, I liked it for the airplane. As an engineer with an aviation company I have a definite bias towards planes, engines, and flying in general, so I'm just gonna let my vote stand. But I am gonna remove the sig link. ;)

So it's around 6 months until graduation shows up and my TEFLing plans start to fall together. Since I can't really do anything between now and then, except read the course texts (Pft, how useful can this be? Before I get shouted at this was an attempt at a joke...sorry it wasn't very good), I've been trying to get a jist of what the whole expat teaching experience is actually like.
Now, I'm not asking for anyone to type out their entire life story, rather point me in the direction of anyone that has already done so, bloggers, authors and the like. Anything I've found tends to be sponsored by the companies that run the courses so I've taken it with a pinch of salt.

The single biggest trade show focusing on the kitchen and bathroom—the Kitchen and Bath Industry Show—kicks off April 24, and expectations are high that manufacturers will come out of a four-year funk that has seen few truly innovative product developments.
"Attendees will experience a breadth of new, innovative offerings that can't be seen anywhere else," says the National Kitchen and Bath Association, the show's organizer. Highlights will include the exhibit Uncontained, which will provide a look at how colliding generations are changing the rules of design; and a multimedia lounge offering attendees expert insights into the new economic and marketing environment.
A large reason for heading to the show, however, will be the new products introduction, which will include debuts of the newest offerings in some of the biggest trends in the industry, such as darker finishes on cabinets; use of more glass, especially on backsplashes; more LED lighting; and the very popular pull-out faucets.
This year, the show will group new resources from high-interest product categories into special pavilions to help exhibitors and attendees more efficiently navigate the show and meet with the companies and suppliers they want to target. The show is also welcoming back as exhibitors Sub-Zero, Wolf Range, and luxury cabinet manufacturer Poggenpohl.
Here's a preview of 12 products that caught our attention.

What causes sexual problems as we age?
Some illnesses, disabilities, medicines, and surgeries can affect your ability to have and enjoy sex. Problems in your relationship can also affect your ability to enjoy sex.
Arthritis. Joint pain due to arthritis can make sexual contact uncomfortable. Joint replacement surgery and drugs may relieve this pain. Exercise, rest, warm baths, and changing the position or timing of sexual activity can be helpful.
Chronic pain. Any constant pain can interfere with intimacy between older people. Chronic pain does not have to be part of growing older and can often be treated. But, some pain medicines can interfere with sexual function. You should always talk with your doctor if you have unwanted side effects from any medication.
Dementia. Some people with dementia show increased interest in sex and physical closeness, but they may not be able to judge what is appropriate sexual behavior. Those with severe dementia may not recognize their spouse but still seek sexual contact. This can be a confusing problem for the spouse. A doctor, nurse, or social worker with training in dementia care may be helpful.
Diabetes. This is one of the illnesses that can cause ED (impotence) in some men. In most cases, medical treatment can help. Less is known about how diabetes affects sexuality in older women. Women with diabetes are more likely to have vaginal yeast infections, which can cause itching and irritation and make sex uncomfortable or undesirable. Yeast infections can be treated.
Heart disease. Narrowing and hardening of the arteries can change blood vessels so that blood does not flow freely. As a result, men and women may have problems with orgasms, and men may have trouble with erections. People who have had a heart attack, or their partners, may be afraid that having sex will cause another attack. Even though sexual activity is generally safe, always follow your doctor's advice. If your heart problems get worse and you have chest pain or shortness of breath even while resting, talk to your doctor. He or she may want to change your treatment plan.
Incontinence. Loss of bladder control or leaking of urine is more common as we grow older, especially in women. Stress incontinence happens during exercise, coughing, sneezing, or lifting, for example. Because of the extra pressure on your abdomen during sex, incontinence might cause some people to avoid sex. The good news is that this can usually be treated.
Stroke. The ability to have sex is sometimes affected by a stroke. A change in positions or medical devices may help people with ongoing weakness or paralysis to have sex. Some people with paralysis from the waist down are still able to experience orgasm and pleasure.
Depression. Lack of interest in activities you used to enjoy, such as intimacy and sexual activity, can be a symptom of depression. It's sometimes hard to know if you're depressed. Talk with your doctor. Depression can be treated.

|cool rockin daddy
Good for you. You've over-analyzed everything to death as has been pointed out. Despite also having it pointed out to you that flat tappet cams can live with no problem with today's oils. Despite the fact that you can buy cams that are nitrided so the ZDDP factor doesn't even enter the equation. Despite the fact that the cam companies keep on developing and manufacturing flat tappet cams. You have made the decision to go with a roller cam. Yippee! Now stop rambling on about it. You're just another freaking noob who thinks he has all the answers yet your posts show you don't have a clue about anything. Thinking that Joe Gibbs' race engine dyno results applied to cam wear and oil use for street driven cars. Then to find out all this hoopla is over a freaking RV. Whatever, FNG, whatever.
Funny thing about message boards and the internet, there is always someone there saying stuff that they would never have the BALLS to say to someones face. Now just what did I do to piss you off?
Oh and by the way, I am Certified ASE Mechanic for the last 30 years. I have built more than one hot rod, race car, and motorcycle and rebuilt more than one small block Chevy, so my experience speaks for itself.
Come to this forum with questions and you will get answers, maybe you wont like what you hear, maybe you wont agree, but thats what this is about. If you have personal issues, about my "mommy and Daddy" or whether I was a Marine or not take it some where else. I think its probabaly time the moderators stepped in
I'll play along with ur silly ideas and games....I buy 1 adjustable pushrod, measure the distance at all 3 points on the valve stem, then buy the appropriate rods...Yep, and I did not have to figure that out doing a google search, either...
I went directly to the source and talked to the guy at Comp Cams...Of course, since your a skeptic and resistance to new idea's is futile in ur feeble mind...Perhaps you need to call the cam guru's yourself and get re-edja'macted. ...Call 1-901-795-2400-EXT 581 and ask for Chris Ryan...
And I figure that your going to need mommy and daddy to dial the numbers for you, since from what I am hearing, they have to read this back to you, because of ur mental disability~! Yep, 1,000,000,000 ohm's of resistance! I knew a couple of Marines in the Army that I had TTTTTTOOOOOO TAAALLLKKK RRRRRREEEEAAAALLLL SSSSSLLLLLLOOOOOWWWWLLLLLY TTTTOOOOO~!
Sounds to me that whatever another person thinks about a particular situation, you just have to prove them wrong, AAAA?
Go watch Captain Kangaroo~!
Did you do a google search for pushrod length too? 1,120,000 resulsts in .20 seconds
So what does that mean
Just do a google search on "wiped cam lobe" or "I wiped my cam lobe"
Then look at the dates, 2010, 2011 as well as 2012....
About 37,300 results (0.27 seconds
YA, RIGHT~! no concern and I am over analyzing it? 37,300 hits in under 1/2 second~!
Why would Comp Cams advertise their Retro Rollers FIRST when you look up SBC cams on their site?
Also, talked to COMP CAMS and found out that the reason why they have 2 different pushrods is that one is HARDENED, while the OTHER IS NOT for the cam that I am looking at~!
I thought it might have been for 1.5 and the other for 1.6 rockers, not what you just claimed...that was someone else speculating...
Anyways, I already made up my mind to go retro roller anyways and I will have a ton of advantages to going this method....
And the number one reason for going this route is I DO NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT WIPING A LOBE, then trying to deal with a manufacturer....NUFF SAID~!
Again, I think you are over analyzing it. Why would cam companies still be selling flat tappet cams if they were all doomed to fail. Do your proper break in, change your oil regularly and use the right oil.
Now, you want more confusion? Better figure out your proper pushrod length for proper performance. Its not one lenght for roller rockers and one for standard. If you are using roller rockers better make sure you have the correct length pushrods. So search that on this site and then you will see your head spin!!
I think I'm sold on using the Retro Roller cam...I would prefer to get a newer vortec L-31 block, but for the van it is going into, there would be too much difference with the oil pan, dipstick location, as well as other hard parts placement...I need to KISS this project! (KEEP IT SIMPLE FOR STUPID: ME)
Moreover, there is no guarantee on oil and the companies continued changing of oil properties to less than optimal anti-wear additives...
With a roller cam, I eliminate 2 problems...
1) cam break in (NO WIPED LOBES)
2) finding cheap oil for a daily driver w/o buying additives, or mail order~!
I can use almost any oil off the shelfs and have no worries..
AND the Benefits of freeing up HP by the rollers themselves and the added benefits of a cam change without buying new lifters and again breaking in a cam...
Lastly:"if it ain't broke, don't fix it~!" Well, why would all those companies that build cars for a living, abandon the Hyd. Flat Tappet Cam for the Hyd. Roller Cam....What part of this problem is everyone resistance for changing over to the new design?
Like I said the other day, it is all about 1,000,000,000 ohms of resistance...
People don't like change, so they resist trends in all facets of life...
sound logic to me
|Silver Surfer
The I don't think moving to a 1.6 rocker would necessitate a pushrod length change, but I could very well be wrong.
I was looking last nite at comps website and I wrote a tech question about their 2 different lengths of pushrods they sell for the same cam...1=7.266, 2=7.300....I wondered if one was for the 1.6 rocker and the other for 1.5?...
|My order history with Summit is only showing up back to December 2010 . If my memory serves me correctly they were 7.25", which with Google I am coming up with 7.25'' - 7.3''.
\Thanks again...
Sir: I beg to differ:
I have been reading this site for awhile as well as others..I sum this up with Inspector1's reply from another person asking on which way to go...Your saying that his logic is wrong? Just wondering and not trying to start an argument, but the logic I see in Inspector1's comments are reasonable....Also, since I was already corrected about Joe Gibbs turning 9,000 rpm's with his engines, that explained it to me...I was corrected...
Furthermore, my current motor has 170,00+ miles on it and it is toast..It is my opinion that when Cash for Clunkers failed to get all the older cars off the road 2 yrs ago, and GM failed, as well...It could be that the next step was the oil,....
1,000,000,000,000 ohms of resistance is the reason why, our country is in the trouble it is in...When bankers, Car manufacturers and whoever else wants Tax payer dollars, because they could not balance their check book from the wild parties they throw, that is a conspiracy, because you and me would have been thrown in jail for fraud... I used that amount of ohms, because people keep allowing the status quo to do the same things over and over again....To much resistance to think outside the box~!
From Inspector1 on this site;
"OK, I'll comment more. DO NOT USE A FLAT TAPPET CAMSHAFT, REPEAT, DO NOT USE A FLAT TAPPET CAMSHAFT.
If you were aware of the number of flat tappet cams I see roached, you wouldn't even consider one. It's not just the fact that the cam and lifters are ruined and you have to buy them again, it's the fact that the motor has to be removed, completely torn down and all cracks, crevises and oil galleys must be cleaned just like they were when you first put the motor together. So, there's the cost of new cam and lifters, all new gaskets, all the cleaning, re-assembly and the possibility that it will happen all over again. I know there are those of you who have successfully used a flat tappet camshaft, or know someone who has, but everything must be absolutely perfect to prevent wiping a lobe. It's just not worth the gamble when a roller hydraulic camshaft and roller lifters aren't that much more money. I'm going to suggest a Howard's CL110235-12 retrofit cam for you with an intake closing point that will match up with your 8.99:1 static compression ratio. You don't want to use any more cam than this with your low SCR. If you want to use more cam, then change the pistons to 12cc units and use a Howards CL110245. Howards are a little less money than some of the other manufacturers, but still have the reputation of being an excellent product and have been for many years. DO NOT USE A FLAT TAPPET CAMSHAFT."
I used a Howards retrofit roller cam in my 406 and am happy with it, as far as the timing cover I just bought one from summit with a wear plate I believe it is called in it and used a cam button in conjunction with that, the pushrods are lunati, I can possible check my summit order history and get the lengths and pn's for you.

Board upgrade, help narrow demo list
I'm looking to upgrade my deck from my current and first board- a 157 2007 Gnu Hampus Mosesson pro model (full camber, bought as a used demo board) that I've used the last 2 seasons. It's a good board, but really beat up. My stats: 5'11" / 180lbs / Budget: $600 I'll be pairing the board up with Rome Targas and Size 9 32 Lashed boots.
About my riding: This is my 3rd season, I ride 30+ days a season with about 90% at Mammoth in the Eastern Sierra. I would consider myself an high intermediate / low advanced rider. I'm 90% on the mtn (groomers, pow, off piste, trees, chutes, steeps, side hits, wind lips), and 10% in the park (just jump lines). I can make it down the blacks comfortably, turning without bails, and am beginning to ride the double blacks and slopes 40 degrees and up. Switch riding is still way behind- skidded turns on blues.
I did some research last season, and demoed an NS SL and Lib Attack Banana. I enjoyed riding both those boards, but want to demo a few more this season before choosing. I really digged the camber-rocker-camber profile and am looking for deck with that.
I'm looking for an all-mountain board that will primarily be great in pow, great edge hold, steeps, trees, damp enough for off piste chunder. Less important features- groomer carving, jumps, pipe (just starting to ride this season), and switch. Also want to take it on some boot pack runs later in spring. Mammoth gets variable snow through out the season- sierra cement early season (much like the pnw poo), typically lightens as the season moves along, and ends with some great corn snow late spring. It also gets very windy and you can ride bulletproof wind scoured ice sheets (hence the need for great edge hold) into a knee deep wind buff powder. So a very versatile deck, mid scale flex, and good to great dampening is what I'm aiming for.
I'm going to demo for 3 or 4 days coming up, so I'd like to get some thoughts from you guys on narrowing down my demo options. Almost everything is available to demo between a few shops in Mammoth:
NS Cobra- Definitely going to demo, a lot of reviews are pointing me to give this one a try
NS Proto- Not sure if it'll be too soft for some of my riding?
Lib Hot Knife- really interested in checking out the C3 shape
Lib TRS- magne too aggressive?
Smokin Superpark- stiff enough?
Gnu Eco Genetics- Similar profile to the Lib AB
Gnu Billy Goat- too much board?
Arbor Coda- not the hybrid shape I want, but I hear and read a lot of good things about it
Arbor Element- same as above
If there's a different manufacturer out there other than mervin, ns, and arbor and has prolific edge hold let me know as well.
That's a pretty exhaustive list, the only thing I might add would be a NS Heritage if you haven't already ruled it out. The Cobra would be on my short list though if I were you :thumbsup:
If I had access to demo any boards I wanted I'd be trying out a lot of different brands. Ride Berzerker, Flow Rush, Rome Agent Rocker, NS Cobra, Lib-Tech Banana Magic, Burton Easy Livin'... all manufactures claim to have good edge hold. But Mervin boards have magnetraction.
I got a Lib Tech TRS for this season and absolutely love it so far. I have taken it all over the mountain(park/blacks/trees/groomers) and it flat out performs well everywhere. The edge hold is GREAT on all the nasty hard pack. You may want to add the T-Rice to your list just as a comparison. From what I have heard it is more or less a stiffer TRS which may suit your riding style better.
Thanks for the opinions. The ride berserker does seems to fit my criteria also, but haven't heard anything on how the edge hold is on ride boards. I know it sounds stupid but I'm not going to feed the Burton machine, and I've read the various reviews on their edge hold not being so great. I may be mistaken but I thought all the lib Rice boards are mid-wide, so I didn't include them. I'll have to find out for sure, or if can anyone here confirm or deny that?
So I will only demo 3 days now. First on that list is the cobra. The other 2 slots are what I'm debating now. I'm strongly leaning toward the TRS for one. Any thoughts from the community?
The Rice is a mid-wide. I would highly recommend taking the TRS for a spin. It flat out performs everywhere.

Hi everybody. I am in desperate need of some help here. My system configuration is Intel core 2 duo processor P8600 2.4GHz(2 CPUs) and I have a 2GB RAM. I downloaded an image of BT5 r2 from the official site. After the download I also verified the hash code of the download using the tool, HashCalc, mentioned on the official site and the hash code generated perfectly matched the one given on the official site.
The file type of the image downloaded is "elby.VCDMount.1" and not ".iso". Then I wanted to make a live dvd using this image. So i used Nero to burn this file on the disc. I used Nero's "burn image" option to do this. The burn process was also completed succesfully.
Now when I try to use this burnt DVD as a live DVD for BT 5, it does not get started. After a few seconds of the blinking prompt Windows starts booting up again. I have checked my BIOS to ensure that my first boot device is the CD-ROM. And the ROM works perfectly fine because if I try using a live Knoppix CD it works very well and fine.
Please help , i really don't understand where am i going wrong. :( Thanks in advance.

Tuesday March 22,2016 : FRESH HOPE FOR ONLINE POKER IN NEW YORK BUDGET
Bonacic legalisation language included in budget bill S6409B
What may well prove to be positive news on internet poker legalisation in the state of New York emerged this week when it was revealed that the regulation of online poker envisaged in Senator John Bonacic's S5302B measure (see previous InfoPowa report) has been included in the state's $154 billion budget plan - still being negotiated despite the fiscal year starting in April.
The Bonacic bill has already survived a Senate committee vote in February, and in Senate Resolution R4330 its language was advanced to the budget bill. Bonacic has proposed steep multi-million dollar licensing fees, but the principal advantage could be the acceptance of online poker by lawmakers.
John Pappas, executive director of the Poker Players Alliance commented this week that the developments are positive, but cautioned that it was too early to be certain of the outcome, and there have been previous disappointments. He urged PPA members to communicate with their political representatives, saying that there was currently more support for iPoker legalisation among both industry and political parties.

I think the motorhome ones true. I remember it was on the news.
How do these people survive?
Recently, when I went to McDonald's I saw on the menu that you could have an order of 6, 9 or 12 Chicken McNuggets. I asked for a half dozen nuggets. "We don't have half dozen nuggets," said the teenager at the counter. "You don't?" I replied. "We only have 6, 9, or 12," was the reply. "So I can't order a half dozen nuggets, but I can order 6?" "That's right." So I shook my head and ordered 6 McNuggets.
I was checking out at the local Wal-Mart with just a few items and the lady behind me put her things on the belt close to mine. I picked up one of those "dividers" they keep by the cash register and placed it between our things so they wouldn't get mixed. After the girl had scanned all of my items, she picked up the "divider", looking it all over for the bar code so she could scan it. Not finding the bar code she said to me, "Do you know how much this is?" I said to her "I've changed my mind, I don't think I'll buy that today." She said "OK," and I paid her for the things and left. She had no clue to what had just happened.
A lady at work was seen putting a credit card into her floppy drive and pulling it out very quickly. When I inquired as to what she was doing, she said she was shopping on the Internet and they kept asking for a credit card number, so she was using the ATM "thingy."
I recently saw a distraught young lady weeping beside her car. "Do you need some help?" I asked. She replied, "I knew I should have replaced the battery to this remote door unlocker. Now I can't get into my car. Do you think they (pointing to a distant convenience store) would have a
battery to fit this?" "Hmmm, I dunno. Do you have an alarm, too?" I asked. "No, just this remote thingy," she answered, handing it and the car keys to me. As I took the key and manually unlocked the door, I replied, "Why don't you drive over there and check about the batteries. It's a long walk."
Several years ago, we had a temp who was none too swift. One day she was typing and turned to a secretary and said, "I'm almost out of typing paper. What do I do?" "Just use copier machine paper," the secretary told her. With that, the temp took her last remaining blank piece of paper, put it on the photocopier and proceeded to make 5 "blank" copies.
I was in a car dealership a while ago, when a large motor home was towed into the garage. The front of the vehicle was in dire need of repair and the whole thing generally looked like an extra in "Twister." I asked the manager what had happened. He told me that the driver had set the "cruise control" and then went in the back to make a sandwich.
Police in Radnor, PA, interrogated a suspect by placing a metal colander on his head and connecting it with wires to a photocopy machine. The message "He's lying" was placed in the copier, and police pressed the copy button each time they thought the suspect wasn't telling the truth. Believing the "lie detector" was working, the suspect confessed.
A mother calls 911 very worried asking the dispatcher if she needs to take her kid to the emergency room, the kid was eating ants. The dispatcher tells her to give the kid some Benadryl and should be fine, the mother says, I just gave him some ant killer.... Dispatcher: Rush him to the emergency room!

I seldom talk to liberals.............................. But when I do, I order fries............
Stupidity is a major problem in our country. There should be penalties for stupidity. I'm not advocating the death penalty for stupidity but something should be done.
How about removing the warning stickers from all products and letting nature take its course?
it really is sad to think someone has done what warning stickers say not to do. and business has to put them on to keep from being sued. who'd of thought cofee is supposed to be hot!
The thing is, if you're stupid enough to put your hands into the spinning lawnmower blades in the first place, why do they assume you are smart enough to read, comprehend, and heed their warning sticker?
I think that stupidity should be painfull!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GO DARWIN! hopefully they'll do something stupid enough to cause their own death before they're able to breed

Cory Scanlon Communications Intern Weleda North America
I have only been with Weleda a short time, but so far it's been great. The atmosphere is open, bright and relaxed; just how an all-natural skincare company should be.
About three years ago, my mom bought a book about living naturally. It said that if you cannot pronounce the ingredients in a product, you shouldn't put it on your skin. That made complete sense to me. Little by little, as I did my research, I started switching to natural beauty products. To my surprise, they worked better than products filled with chemicals ingredients. Plus, you feel good knowing your being kind to yourself, animals and the environment.
I spent the last three years living in Alaska. There are more free-spirits and natural beauty lovers there than anywhere else I have ever been. It made it easy for me to find the safest, most effective products on the market. Recently, I moved to New Jersey, which is not very far from Weleda's headquarters. Since I have been using Weleda products for a couple of years—the Lavender Relaxing Body Oil and Rosemary Hair Oil are my favorite products—an internship here seemed like a perfect opportunity to learn from the company and share my love for natural beauty with people like you.

I came down with the worst case of eczema in my life about 2 and a halfs years ago. My entire body looked like I was a burn victim. I'm still recovering. Yeast caused my ezcema. I practically bathed in coconut oil and swear by quality versions of it. For my lips coconut oil didn't work. They were swollen and blackened by the ezcema. The ONLY THING that HEALED MY LIPS WAS THIS BALM. I use it now for prevention. Please make a hand and or body version. It saved my skin naturally. I stopped ALL STEROIDS because they started to thin my skin and wanted to heal with natural products . I truly believe in this product. Thank you.
This product is unbelievable. While shopping at Sprouts, I often check the little basket for free samples because they prove to be excellent. This little sample pack is quintessential for dry feet, hands, elbows, etc. Immediately, I instructed my son to drop by the store and purchase the 2.5 oz today. On October 2, 2016, a tall and very distinguished gentleman sat beside me in Sunday school asking, "Do you have any lotion in my purse." He looked like a professional basketball player, but I am too polished to asked a gentleman of his professional status not knowing for sure. He was far too handsome and dapper. I really desired to tell him, "Hold on, I'll be right back with that lotion." A lady walked in taking a seat to my immediate left; I asked her for her lotion and gave it to him. I hope that count for something. [Smile] Anyway, I left my lotion in the car by mistake. I wished I had a few packs of these samples to give him one. He now frequent my Sunday school class and I am simply mesmerized at his presence. You should hear the sound of his voice. You know what will be in my purse from now on. Yes, "Weleda Skin Food!" If I should marry him [smiling], it shall, likewise be in our estate in each lavatory especially in the guests lavatory. Excellent product!
This cuticle pen is amazing! I have very dry cuticles due to age and chemo. This has softened my hands, and especially helped my feet. Thank you so much for a very useful and good product!

HI Lucy,
Thank you so much for your help before.
REF - Assessing students objectively - Chinese students (English Majors), large classes (50-60)
I am teaching freshmen - 19 years old, in a private college in central China.
During my pronunciation classes I have to assess students with a test. However, I find the problem is that of time. I have to listen to each individual speak. Since classes are so big, I have to assess the students with just two/three minutes of time and assess them on pronunciation of various phonemes/words. I am not sure how to do this objectively. Since pronunciation can vary, but still be correct (due to American/English/Australian pronunciation) I am concerned of the best way to assess the students.
So what is the best way to assess pronunciation in a test. Assign a point for every word pronounced correctly? But even then it seems hard to assess what words are correct and what are not correct.
If you can give me any ideas I would be very grateful. Thanks Lucy!!
