Hi gang,
Working on something non-Fett related (for a change.)
I've always liked the different looking helmets used by the Rebel Alliance, especially the different designs for the pilots. I ordered a Y-Wing helmet kit from Richie's Armor about 3 weeks ago, and it got here yesterday.
Great looking kit, and he got it out to me nice and quick!
The kit consists of 2 vac-formed styrene shells (left and right), a clear tinted visor, 2 strips of black edging, and several small greeblies for detailing. It even includes a length of flexible coated wire to make the microphone boom. Here's the contents of the kit.
Here's a tighter shot of the resin detail bits. No trimming had been done on these for this shot. These are "as received."
Construction of the main helmet was very straightforward. I cut several small tabs from extra styrene, and after lining up the 2 shells, superglued them in place. I just did that to keep everything aligned while I got my JB Kwik ready. Then I applied that all along the inside of the seam. I worked it in small section cuz that stuff kicks pretty fast!
Once the JB Kwik had dried, I went back along the outside of the seam and puttied it. The stuff I use is similar to 1-part Bondo. I bought it while I was stationed in Germany and I've had this tube for over 4 years. It's still going strong! It dries pretty fast and sands to a really smooth finish.
I applied some extra putty to the chin area, which was kind of "sunk" where the 2 halves came together. I built it up to a flatter surface, taking some extra care to blend it in well. Here it is after sanding.
I'm off to the hobby shop in a little bit to grab some primer, and then I'll see how the putty looks. If it needs touch ups, I'll do that later tonight.
More to come!

With start-up templates for projects ranging from Windows applications to web services, and extensive help and on-line documentation, Visual Studio .NET might be mistaken for a tool for unsophisticated users. It's true that most developers soon discover that the basic operation of Visual Studio is fairly self-explanatory; less obvious are some of the suite's more advanced built-in features.Visual Studio .Net includes a wealth of little-used capabilities, is very customizable, has a complete automation model, and much more. On top of its regular feature set, there are hosts of free add-ins, macros, and power toys that can further enhance the functionality of Visual Studio. This book is all about exploring these things, and in doing so, becoming a better and more efficient developer. Developers will learn how to:

Our look is the result of reader comments, our own experimentation, and feedback from distribution channels. Distinctive covers complement our distinctive approach to technical topics, breathing personality and life into potentially dry subjects. The tool on the cover of Visual Studio Hacks is a voltmeter. Voltmeters, which were originally produced in 1888, are instruments used to measure differences of electric potential, commonly called voltage. An ideal voltmeter is an open circuit and therefore has infinite resistance. Although it is not actually possible to make a physical voltmeter with infinite resistance, a well-designed voltmeter has a very high resistance so that it does not have an appreciable affect on the current or voltage it is measuring. To accomplish this, a large resistor is placed in series with the galvanometer. The resistor controls the current produced by the galvanometer, which is quite small to begin with. Most voltmeters are based on the d'Arsonval galvanometer and are of the analog type, meaning they use moving coils to give voltage readings that can vary over a continuous range as indicated by a scale and pointer. Modern digital mechanisms give readings as numerical displays and generally have a higher order of accuracy than analog instruments. This type of voltmeter provides outputs that can be transmitted over distance, can activate printers or typewriters, and can feed into computers.Mary Brady was the production editor, and Norma Emory was the copyeditor for Visual Studio Hacks.

Comments about oreilly Visual Studio Hacks:
First, I'm using 2003. For me, this book delivers what it promises. The IDE is becoming easier for me to use now. I'm used to Eclipse, which is still easier for me to handle, but the hacks in this book have been fantastic in helping me get the IDE under control. So if you are coming to Visual Studio 2003 from Eclipse, you will find this book easy to read and easy to put to use.

Not for Visual Studio 2005...
By SMA
I was expecting a book that would cover the Visual Studio 2005 IDE, not 2003. The coverage for the 2005 IDE is vague and in some places doesn't exist. Sorry.

But leveling feels that it's going fast and I love that. Played a couple of hours yesterday and I'm level 15 already, considering the level cap is 50 that's pretty fast I guess.

you can plant on public farms and then harvest it and start trading, you can craft whenever, not sure when you can start diving for treasure but you can fish etc. just gotta find out, there's not much handholding when it comes to the sandbox features.
also once you have a steady gold income you can purchase labor pots from the auction house for about 6g/pop. they refill 500 labor every 4 hours.
The game was unplayable. I uninstalled it within 10 minutes after killing 2 robot things.... The game was heavily populated and you got a HUGE waiting list. I didn't really get to test out the game in detail but I got the gist....I rather play it when it come to our shore. Atm it's nothing more than a waste of space and with that much people playing......I can barely kill or gather anything..I'm kind of disappointed since I was looking forward to playing it. Oh well......now Ill just wait patiently as I turn 61 until Black Desert comes out....
For being an open pvp sandbox, there sure are a lot of ****ing places where you can't pvp and a ****ton of NPC guards all over the place.
Nevermind, it finished up.

Just want to say that the music in this game is absolutely amazing.
So it kinda looks like there are new servers open, so, where is everyone going?
Is this game worth the download ? Doesn't seem like it because you can't have your own house/property and that's like the whole point of this game isn't it ? What else is there to do besides crafting/farming and PvP ?
So it's 100% confirmed we can't have houses in RU? We have a Korean in our guild from the KR version who says that you can apparently own a home, but you can't place down a scarecrow to protect your farming. Also as Candy said, us cool kids are in Даута. /w Karnage if you want a guild invite. I'll gladly party with anyone who wants to join in. This game is probably the best tabber I've ever played. It feels like it should be a next-gen action MMO, but sure enough, it's a classic tabber. Was running an 'Executioner' but I re-rolled to 'Pathfinder'. For the English sources, that would be 'Dark Knight' to 'Treasure Hunter'.
TLDR: Whisper (/w) Karnage to get an invite into a Даута guild and I'll gladly party with you. If I'm not online, Steam me at http://steamcommunity.com/id/HazMax/ and I shall hop on.

The only game I'd consider giving money for is Diablo III and it's expansion but even that game isn't worth it anymore since they removed AH and I can't get my money back for it Paying for something I can barely understand coz it's in russian is even more absurd from my point of view.I heard there's an english patch but does it work and if it does .. how much of the game does it translate ?
Edit : If you can't protect your farm you don't need a house either way.You can't protect it either and considering how stupid and nasty russian people are they will burn it down minutes after you build it.
Downloading now.

Just got my own boat. This game is pretty awesome.
Is the game too demanding ? I'll download it on my laptop which has an Nvidia 720M 2 GB i3 proc. and 6 GB RAM .. should be able to run it at low/medium I think.What I'm afraid of is the heat.The game does seem beautiful meaning stress on the card = a lot of heat which isn't good if I want to have a laptop after 1 hour of ArcheAge
Edit : What are your specs ?
I won't have a house because I don't plan on subscribing to this thing I hope they remove the house restriction soon or a lot of players will leave.
Yeah but taking away such a fun part like housing is stupid imo.Aion has it and it's a lot of fun to have one.
So i havent been following this game, can someone give a quick run-down of pro and cons(or if someone already has, can you link it?)
Thanks guys, appreciate it. Just I've seen a few of you mention it so i figured I'd see what the hubbub was about.
Russia is pretty big you know 8 bucks less from me won't harm them

Explaining Polanskiites
posted at 7:58 pm on October 6, 2009 by Dafydd ab Hugh
In Dennis Prager's Townhall column today, he asks the most obvious and urgent question about the Roman Polanski crisis, the same point noted by Movie Badger in a previous Lizardian post:
How is one to explain the film world's conscience?
He refers not to Polanski himself; as Movie Badger noted, the existence of evil people is not hard to accept, even if it's hard for some to understand, believing, as many of the religious do, in a God Who is absolutely good. Rather, the more fascinating question, and the more important for society, is why people who themselves would never even imagine orally, vaginally, and anally raping a little girl… will nevertheless passionately defend a man who did exactly that.
(I do believe some of the people defending Polanski, such as Woody Allen, are disturbingly close to understanding Polanski's desire to rape a thirteen year old — not just Polanski's ephebophilia. But the vast majority of Polanski's vociferous defenders do not share his violent, sadistic, and torturous impulses towards the helpless.)
Prager finds two explanations for the adultatory support (which is also condemnatory — of everyone except the criminal):
- Hollywood elites see themselves as Nietzschean Übermenschen, "overmen" who "transcend the boundaries of classes, creeds, and nationalities… overcome human nature itself, and maintain a lordly superiority to the normal shackles and conventions of social life." (The quotation is from the online philosophy dictionary at Answers.com.) Thus, Polanski represents the aristocratic warrior-artist who is "beyond good and evil," and cannot be judged by mere humans wallowing in egalitarian modernity.
- Second, "Hollywood specifically, like the film world generally, is a cocoon." That is, Polanski's elite defenders don't even know how out of touch they are with the rest of humanity. They defend Roman Polanski because all their friends do.
Each of these explanations has merit; but collectively, I think it only explains a tiny fraction of those demanding that Polanski be released. The first may explain Harvey Weinstein, who refered to Polanski's multiple rapes of a terrified (and drugged) thirteen year old girl as a "so-called crime;" it's also possible that Weinstein lives so much in a bubble he literally has never heard any of his Hollywood friends mention that the rape was not merely statutory rape; if you believe the victim, it was forcible rape.
I think the second explanation is the best one for Whoopi Goldberg, who claimed it wasn't a "rape-rape;" she doesn't listen to anyone but liberals, and liberals have all got it in their minds that the sex was consensual — the girl was just a little too young. I suspect she still believes this… and believes that everyone on the right who claims it was more is simply lying to hurt a liberal icon. [This paragraph is corrected; I mistakenly wrote Oprah Winfrey instead. Thanks to an e-mailer and a couple of commenters!]
But neither explanation really satisfies me. Why are Hollywood personalities so unwilling to believe that one of their own may have done something horrible?
I know this will startle you all, but I have my own theory about what really drives support for Roman Polanski; alas, it's a logical fallacy that affects nearly everyone to some extent, myself included, no matter how carefully I try to avoid it. Every day, I see similar defenses — albeit of less egregious crimes — by ordinary, non-Hollywood people who do not see themselves as "beyond good and evil," and who do not live in a cocoon.
A friend of mine defined it most succinctly:
"It can't be true, because that would be too dreadful!"
In other words, most Polanski defenders support him not because they have a broken moral compass; they support and defend him because they simply cannot believe he really did it — despite the evidence, the testimony, and even Polanski's own confession (to a lesser edition of his crime). They cannot believe it because they refuse to allow themselves to believe it; the truth would do such damage to their worldview that they just can't handle it.
A great many people (mostly liberals) believe the following syllogism:
- To produce great art, a person needs a great soul (or spirit, for the atheists);
- A great soul cannot be associated with the basest and most despicable of carnal crime; it's impossible by definition;
- Therefore, a great artist is incapable of child rape, no matter what anybody says. Who you gonna believe, the manifest truth of liberal logic, or your own lyin' eyes?
The illogic of this is easily spotted; since a "great soul" is never defined, it ends up being defined post-hoc as the inability to do whatever it is the great artist is accused of doing — which makes the argument completely circular.
But lest we feel too superior, consider this variation:
- Man is more than just an animal; he has a soul.
- The soul is of the spirit, not of the flesh.
- Flesh cannot transform into spirit; it's impossible by definition.
- Thus, a human being cannot evolve from non-human animals.
- But it seems absurd that evolution could explain the creation of all species on the planet but one.
- Therefore, evolution from one species to another is a complete fraud, no matter what those lefty, atheist eggheads claim.
Here we have the same complaint: The creationist begins with a premise that is logically equivalent to the conclusion he seeks.
Or this one:
- Capitalism is the greatest engine of wealth creation ever invented; it's also the most just system of distribution of wealth.
- Any government attempt to control Capitalism is doomed to failure, because it subsitutes the decision of a single mind or small group of minds for the godlike decisions of all minds linked in a collective called the Market.
- So any and all constraints on the Market are wrongheaded and should be abolished.
- Therefore, governments must never aid individuals or even entire regions stricken by devastating natural disasters or calamitous attacks, because that violates the precepts of Capitalism, no matter what those statist, redistributing Benthemites say.
Each of these syllogisms is paralogical and invalid, and each has the same fundamental fallacy: Assuming the conclusion, then finding some path to it, no matter how tortuous:
"It would be too dreadful if government intervention in the market actually worked; therefore, it cannot work."
"It would be too dreadful if evolution by natural selection actually occurred; therefore it didn't."
"It would be too dreadful to imagine that a man could direct a masterpiece like Chinatown, or a man who could write an opera like Götterdämmerung, or a man who could play brilliant football, yet could also be capable of committing rape, engaging in despicable Jew hatred, or killing two people in cold blood; therefore, none of those things really happened… it was all just some awful misunderstanding."
Have you ever tried to find some argument to explain away the fact that the man who wrote the Declaration of Independence was a life-long slave owner, as was the father of our country? How many people rail against socialized medicine, then turn around and castigate Obama for threatening Medicare?
I don't think either of these is an example of hypocrisy; nobody actually defends Thomas Jefferson's or George Washington's slave ownership — "It's okay for them, because they were so great; but it's not okay for lesser mortals." Rather, they try to weasel out of condemning them for it; they claim extenuating circumstances.
Rather, they simply cannot accept the idea that one of the greatest apostles of liberty and America's first president could also engage in chattel slavery on the basis of race; it's too dreadful to imagine such greatness of spirit containing such carnal ignominy. It can't be true — so it must not be true! There must be some other explanation, like… like Jefferson and Washington were just keeping slaves to — to protect them; yeah, that must be it.
(This non-defense defense naturally implies that the defender accepts the evil of slavery. If he didn't, why bother claiming Jefferson wasn't "really" a slave owner?)
So how does this work in the present case?
- The violent drugging and multiple raping of a thirteen year old girl was really some strange (but perfectly understandable) version of consensual sex.
- This means the victim must have been a willing, even enthusiastic participant. Which means she must have been a huge fan of Roman Polanski, and probably on the make for a star "scalp."
- Thus her testimony at the grand jury proceeding was obviously perjured; after having her fun, she wanted to soak Polanski for as much money as she could. She's the real criminal, not the director. Is giving pleasure a crime?
- Since we all agree she was thirteen, and the law says that thirteen year olds cannot consent to sex, that implies the very concept of "age of consent" must be screwy (all right, bad word choice). The girl must have been very advanced for her age; she must have seduced Polanski; it was all her doing anyway.
- Therefore, Polanski did nothing wrong; the D.A. and the judge were just been out to get him, to put another notch on their prosecutorial gunbarrel. They were doubtless smug, anti-art, conservative Philistines.
- Which means that… Roman Polanski had every right to flee to France! Anybody else would have done the same thing.
It's a crazy, convoluted way of looking at such a simple crime of violence, control, and sexual brutality. But its very complexity tells us that his defenders are struggling to harmonize what they know would be degrading and violent behavior with what they know simply cannot be the case. They're not hypocrites; they're lying to themselves to prevent their heads from exploding.
Happily, it's simply not the case, in my mind, that America includes hundreds of thousands of people who believe that great artists are allowed to commit heinous crimes, as some vile version of "jus primae noctis;" instead, a huge number simply refuse to accept the possibilty that a person could be so sensitive in one case and such a brute in another.
Sadly, America contains tens of millions who believe some corollary of that last point.

It is nice to see the Spyker receive some love from the aftermarket.
I love Akon. I do not love his Spyker.
Saw this car in Dub Magazine.
Not feeling the wheels. Dub style wheels on an exotic type sport car.
To each his own.
nice car, would of been better if the yellow on the wheels wasnt on there
Like the wheels, like the car, don't like the color.
Not really feeling the color/design for that car
I really like the wheel design, not necessarily the color.
Akon has the worst taste in color combos, but I do respect the cars for what they are.

Green Bay Hosts Detroit Saturday Afternoon at 1 PM
By: Andrew Gavin (@GBGavin)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - Green Bay looks to start another home winning streak and strengthen its spot in the conference standings on Saturday afternoon, welcoming Detroit to the Resch Center for the Horizon League Game of the Week at 1 p.m. The Phoenix is aiming to bounce back after a heartbreaking 70-68 double overtime loss to Wright State on Thursday night, a setback that snapped Green Bay's seven-game home winning streak.
Saturday will be a Festival Foods Family Game with tickets starting at just $7 for youth and $8 for adults. The first 1,500 youth fans in attendance will receive a Phoenix replica jersey compliments of the Wisconsin Milk Marketing Board. After the game, fans are welcome to the court for Free Throws with the Phoenix.
The Phoenix and Titans played in the Horizon League Game of the Week on Jan. 5 in Detroit, with Green Bay falling 84-76. Sophomore Greg Mays (Chicago, Ill.) posted his career high in scoring that afternoon, tallying 18 points on 8-of-9 shooting, including five dunks. The Phoenix held Detroit to just 37.5 percent shooting but Detroit made 38-of-42 free throws.
Both teams have a First-Team All-Horizon League performer, with Detroit's Ray McCallum averaging 18.5 points per game to lead the conference and Green Bay's Alec Brown (Winona, Minn.) posting 13.2 points and 6.2 rebounds.
FOLLOW THE PHOENIX: For fans unable to make it to the Resch Center on Saturday afternoon, the contest will be live on Time Warner Cable's Sports32 and on the Horizon League Network. The televised contest will have Jim Barbar as the play-by-play announcer and David Kaplan as the color analyst. It is also the team's fourth appearance on the Horizon League Game of the Week.
The game will also be carried live by WDUZ The Fan 1400 AM and online at thefan1075.com. For both the video and audio feeds, the play-by-play voice of the Phoenix Matt Menzl will be on the call alongside Cordero Barkley. Live stats will be available on GreenBayPhoenix.com. You can also stay up-to-date by following @GBPhoenixMBB and @GBGavin on Twitter.
ALUMNI WEEKEND: Prior to the Green Bay-Detroit game, numerous former Phoenix players will participate in the Alumni Game at the Resch Center at 10 a.m. Among the former Phoenix players expected to participate are: Jeff Nordgaard, Wayne Walker, Ryan Borowicz, Logan Vander Velden, Paul Kraft and Eric Valentin. All fans are welcome to attend the contest.
At halftime of the men's basketball game, the Phoenix alums in attendance will be announced, and a special recognition will be made in honor of head coach Dave Buss and the 1977-78 and 1978-89 Division II National Runner-Up teams.
1. INSIDE THE SERIES: Detroit holds a 24-20 edge in the series with Green Bay, but the Phoenix has won 12 of the 20 meetings in Green Bay. The Phoenix has won four of the past five home games in the series.
2. REBOUNDING ROOKIE: Freshman Jordan Fouse (Racine, Wis.) has proven himself to be one of the best rebounders and defensive players in the Horizon League. The 6-foot-7 forward is second in the conference in rebounds per game (7.7), third in blocks per game (1.5) and tied for third in steals per game. After a career-high 15 rebounds on Thursday, Fouse has now grabbed more rebounds (184) than any freshman in the program's Division I history. He is on pace to break Green Bay's 44-year old record, set by Dennis Woeffler (209) in the program's first season, 1969-70.
3. BLOCK PARTY: Getting three from Fouse and three from senior Brennan Cougill (Sioux City, Iowa), Green Bay had 10 blocks on Thursday night, tied for the second most in program history. With Brown (39), Fouse (37), Mays (17) and Cougill all in double figures, the Phoenix has now swatted 114 shots on the season. That total is the third-most all-time, behind only the last two seasons - 142 in 2011-12 and 119 in 2012-13.
• THIS YEAR'S MEETING: In Detroit's 84-76 win on Jan. 5 at Calihan Hall, Green Bay shot 52.7 percent from the field, put four players in double figures, had a plus-seven rebounding margin and limited Detroit to just 37.5 percent shooting. However, the Phoenix could not overcome the free-throw differential, with the Titans making 38-of-42 at the line while Green Bay hit 14-of-19. The Phoenix got 21 points from sophomore Keifer Sykes (Chicago, Ill.) and a career-high 18 from Mays.
• GLASS CLEANERS: Led by the freshman Fouse, who is averaging 8.6 rebounds per game in league play, Green Bay is the top rebounding team in Horizon League action with a rebounding margin of plus-6.1. With three players (Fouse, Brown, Cougill) in the top-six in the conference overall in rebounding, the Phoenix is second for the season in rebounding margin (+4.4).
• DEFEND THE HORIZON: The Phoenix has been among the league's best defensive teams in league play. Through 11 games, Green Bay leads the conference in scoring defense (60.9), field goal percentage defense (.383) and blocked shots (5.9).
• STILL ON GUARD: In Green Bay's six league wins, the Phoenix has not allowed more than 63 points and has a scoring defense of 53.2. The team's victory margin is 13.8 and it has made nearly twice as many free throws (102-52). Those five opponents are shooting just 35.9 percent from the field and are being outrebounded by 10.0 boards per game. In its five HL losses, Green Bay is allowing 70.2 points per game and 41.0 percent shooting. The Phoenix rebounding margin dips to just plus-1.4 and its opponents have made 20 more free throws.
• FREE AND EASY: Green Bay is second in the Horizon League and its 74.5 percent from the line ranks tied for 28h nationally. The Phoenix is 398-534 on the season and also leads the Horizon League in free throws made. Only No. 1 Indiana has made more free throws among teams ranked in the top-30 in free-throw percentage. Among Horizon League leaders, Cougill (.840, 42-50) and Sykes (.811, 107-132) rank sixth and 10th, respectively, in free-throw percentage.
• BROWN'S GRAND NIGHT: Brown sparked Green Bay's dominant second half on Jan. 25 at Milwaukee, scoring 15 of his 23 points. The 7-foot-1 big man surpassed the 1,000-career point mark in the process to become the 25th member of the program's 1,000-point club. On Jan. 28, Brown was recognized for his strong play against Valpo and Milwaukee when he was named Horizon League Player of the Week (20.5 points, 7.0 rebounds, 2.5 blocks per game). The junior is averaging 16.9 points in the past eight games.

I'll never forget seeing the Honolulu Blue and Silver heading back into the huddle on 3rd and short.
Lions 27-Bengals 26...They win after being down by 16 with 6 mins left in the game. Matt Millen did not have to kick the dog or yell at his family tonight. . The Lions amassed 548 yards including 489 in the air but still almost lost due to a couple red zone miscues. Both backup QB's looked a tad better than Kitna. It does look like O'Sullivan can be a keeper IMO, but probably still needs some polishing. The running game is still be hurt by an inept offensive line, but at least the line has learned how to protect the QB.... Number 1 draft pick Chad Johnson had a couple of nice catches. Now since I only listened to the game on the radio, can someone who saw the game live or on the tube validate what I heard??
I was following on the gameday live. Judging by what I saw I would support the same thing. Running game was kind of struggling. And there were a couple of mistakes that almost cost Lions the game. What I like is that this team may actually be a bit deeper than previous versions.
I'm watching the delayed telecast DRE!!!!! lol O'Sullivan is pretty darn good. Shades of Don Majkowski.
*Calvin Johnson Don't worry you'll see him in the Sportscenter highlights throughout the season, I watched 3 years of him at Tech... he will be a legend ...Wait were you talking about Cinnci's Chad Johnson... Mohawk Chad?
Did the Lions really win? I was watching the game on tape delay at my dad's house but decided to leave just after the start of the 4th because it was looking like things were over and about 75% of the guys left playing won't make the team anyway.
You better believe it, Denver tried to comeback and retake the lead when it was 26 to 27. The missed a 48 yard attempt, time ran out, game over... What theatrics
Oops you are right DD, I called him him Chad instead of Calvin...but you said Denver instead of Cincinati ...so we are eevn there. Roscoe, I saw some of the replay on the NFL network but tuned in too late, but will catch it in it's entirety when I review the Tivo of Friday afternoons replay.
In many ways, it was the same old Lions. Nice to see a COMEBACK victory. We rarely do things like that. We never comeback. We rarely get victories. To see both at the same time was real nice. When both team's first string players were in the game, we were being handled by an 8-8 team. We got a lot of passing yards, but their defense was ranked 30th last season. Our defense did not look solid, and most of our new acquisitions did not look good, except for O'Sullivan. After one game, still looks like a losing season.
I know it is kind of early, but if first quarter is any indicator I'd have to agree. The comeback happened when the 3-rd stringers were in the game, some of which won't even make the final cut.
Whoever the announcers were on TV last night, they were horrible. The colour man kept referring to JT O'Sullivan as "TJ" and the straight man kept making all of these comparisons, like the endzone catch 2nd TD, they started comparing it to Montana's famous, "the catch" to Dwight Clark. Utter foolishness. I miss Mark Champion.
My son and I were at this game last night. It was great fun. When the Bengals intercepted and took a 16-point lead, about 3/4 of the fans had left Ford Field. As the Lions were coming back, the remaining fans had a blast. It looked to be a typical Lions loss when Graham kicked the field goal at the final horn, but somehow it missed. Maybe this is the Lions' year. As we walked over to Ford Field before the game, Curtis Granderson stepped out onto the sidewalk right next to us. We shook his hand and he signed autographs for us. He then talked with us for about a half-block walk to the Lions game. He was awesome. Verlander and Tata also walked over to catch the Lions game. Other notes: The Lions defense is going to be terrible this year (worst in the NFL). Calvin Johnson is awesome. Johnson, Roy Williams and Mike Furrey are going to be a fun trio to watch.
Thanks for the report William. Don't forget Shaun MacDonald!
Thanks alot. And I was going to give pf.com props from the booth next game.
Change your name to Mark Champion, and all is forgiven.
If you were watching it on channel 50 the colour man was none other then former Lion "great" Erik Kramer.
Man, I loved Erik Kramer. I'm burning my jersey tonight.
That is hilarious. When we watched it live at Ford Field, my son said that the play reminded him of "the catch". It was strikingly similar the way the receiver came out of nowhere to grab the ball in the back of the end zone. Of course, the stakes were a tad different...
Eric Kramer Was the QB for the ONLY Lion playoff victory in the last 50 years. His bronze statue is next to Wayne Fontes in the "Lions HOF"
Not only that, he actually compared O'Sullivan himself to Joe Montana. Granted, he did say that he wasn't implying that he has the same talent as Montana, but he said that O'Sullivan reminded him of a young Montana. I remember it perfectly because I was sitting there watching it with my dad and brother and as soon as he started saying "He reminds me...." I KNEW that the next words out of his mouth were going to be "of a young Joe Montana". I mean, it's the Lions that we're talking about here. Don't ALL of our players look like Hall of Famers when it doesn't count?

text: What I think Prince William and Kate should do is set up video cameras inside their house. The world loves reality television and it seems like William has a million charities and the way they raise money is always the same. Bring in a bunch of people to play music and send the money off to charity. Well, considering the fascination the world has with the daily vomiting skills of Kate and the demand there will be for baby bump photos and the couple's willingness to try to be totally normal (and having a reality show is completely normal now) I think they should launch a pay-per-view channel and send all the money to charity and for those who can't afford the pay-per-view, there will be an hour long highlight show hosted by Graham Norton every week and the money from the ads can also go to charity. This way, the tabloids do not have to spend their resources reporting that Kate was sick yesterday again and William had to cancel his appointments and hold his wife's hair.

Discussion in 'March 2009' started by Dlev59, Mar 2, 2009.
Yup, thanks for filling in the backstory Bill.
Koncak couldn't snare the squirrels in my backyard either
God, I hope that's not true. He might be partially retarded if that is his downfall. And that would explain the foul thing too. Play #1- run around and set picks Play #2- run around and set picks Etc...
You should probably re-read my posts then especially the ones after the BOS and DEN game. ---- A win being a win doesn't count when you're comparing a win to another win. Really? Can you specify? b/c i didn't see it. Again it's a completely subjective take. You're reading into "body language" and making assumptions based off that that fit into a view you already believe. Seriously, the point I am making, is that what many people think is irrelevant. Let's not outsource our thinking. Why use the view of someone who you don't find credible to support your argument that the players don't like playing with AI and thus don't give "effort"? Or it could just be as simple as AI doesn't play well with others, and it's not working on the court in a basketball sense. Previous history with AI would lend credibility to this view. Maybe the spring in the step and the renewed spirit you're seeing is because the games are close, we actually have a chance to win, and the execution is now producing positive results.
You might not have seen it because you don't watch every game. I do. You misapplied my statement to be an argumentum ad populum. I'm not saying it is true because everyone agrees with me. I am saying that a lot of people watch the games, and saw exactly what I am talking about. The sky isn't blue because we all agree it is. The sky is blue because we all observe it is blue. Big difference. I don't find mystery sources credible, I don't recall questioning Marc Stein's own observations. Perhaps. We discussed it in podshow tonight. AI played in Stuckey's 38 and 40 point games. AI is not holding back Stuckey. And we all know Rip could score like crazy off the bench, so we know that moving Rip to the bench, wasn't causing losses because he played well, and we've won without him. Maybe. But that's not the scuttlebutt.
I have nothing to say to that. I'm not engaging in that stupid argument again. Which is exactly what i was doing when you said it to me. I wasn't stating that b/c these people agree that he sucks, i must be right that he sucks. Does the caliber of opponent factor into the thinking? Or perhaps the fact that Rip's defense in the SL might be a major reason for the change? Prince mentioned how they were starting the games in a hole, and then having to make it up constantly. Maybe that's a factor as well. It's too easy to say well now they try; before they didn't. It completely ignores everything else especially the liability defensively that AI/Stuck backcourt became.
The AI/Stuckey backcourt had no problems beating Billups in the rarified Denver air, on the road. I'm not taking the easy way out. I'm agreeing with Marc Stein and what he claims to be hearing. They don't dislike AI, they don't want to play with him. It's pretty much par for the course with this group. The reason why Billups had to be traded, was that there was no way Stuckey would have been able to start. It speaks volumes about the direction of the organization when Rip and AI, two All-Stars are sent to the bench and there is never any question if Stuckey should be making way for either of them. Your anger towards AI is misdirected. But then, I have been saying that for months. He didn't ask to come here, and I don't feel that he has given any less than anyone else on in our uniform. Like Rip said, "it ain't gunna happen" about going to the bench. How prophetic those words were.
I don't think that was the case; AI came in and started. If we played well AI would still be starting. In fact i remember you stating that saying the trade was for Stuckey to start is "revitionisist history". I'm not angry at AI; this has very little to do with AI. I haven't been on the "effort" bandwagon for a long time. I believe that AI doesn't fit with the SL. I've said from day 1 that i wanted to see him w/ AA b/c i thought it had the potential to become an extremely dangerous backcourt, but what this is more about is players not trying. I've had this argument during the Flip era where people have stated well they're just not trying hard enough; it's has nothing to do with coaching, line-up, etc. I saw frustration from the players in the previous SL. You saw pouting. You see Sheed sitting there angrily and assume he's mad about Rip being benched when in reality he could just be pissed off no one got him gatorade.
I just got confirmation from my inside source. Sheed was angry that there wasn't money in the stimulus package to finance a manned mission to Mars.
Well that explains it. I'm glad we got that cleared up.
It is revisionist history. That is not how it was sold when AI was brought in.
I know. He didn't fit when we beat the Lakers. He didn't fit when Stuckey scored 40 on the Bulls or 38 on the Queens. He didn't fit when we beat the Spurs. Or when we beat the Cavs. He didn't fit during the 7 game win streak. He didn't fit against the Magic. He didn't fit with Rip, he didn't fit without Rip. He didn't fit with both Sheed and Rip out. The objective evidence is overwhelmingly in your favour. I yield the point.
Then he should have gone to college to get some seasoning in the class room too. We've got a couple of schools out here that may have taken a chance on him... Figure I throw this in before this appeared to be a Roscoe vs lpgrl thread
This sounds to me like a whole lot of verbage about nothing. We lost to Atlanta with AI starting, and just now with AI not playing. Either way, it comes down to the coach overplaying the combination of Sheed and Dyess - which lost us both games. There was no difference between the two games in effort, not one bit. The one thing that remained the same between the games - a coach who can't get the rotations right.
You should have heard me on the podshow tonight. ;) :icon_evil:
i don't know about now.... but at the start of the season it was def assignments that he was missing... and no i can't find the quotes... but I remember currey saying he missed alot of the switches and such and got lucky alot of times because of his quickness he could recover but that in itself lead to alot of his silly fouls. So maybe thats the isssue to why he isn't playing.... I would think that wouldn't be as big a deal if he's running up and down the court with a man to man only defense with ai though....
Oh yeah, I forgot about how AI didn't fit with Amir when AJ was starting.
You can name games all you want. Ignore the 8 game losing streak. Do whatever you want. It doesn't change the fact that the SL as currently constructed is better suited for a half-court game, and that AI is not effective in half-court and his defense gets even more exposed in a slow paced game. I can sit here and list many things wrong with the games that you've named, and you can continue to reference a win streak that didn't include Sheed, and took a miracle shot to beat the Clippers, but it's not going to make a difference. You seem more concerned about the "mistreatment" of AI by the org,fans,etc. than anything i'm saying anyway. Right so then why are you stating this;
Mistreatment by "the fans"? I don't believe players get "mistreated". These are men, not baby seals. I don't believe AI or AJ are "victims". These are young alpha millionaires with a life many of us can't even imagine. And I could care less what fans think. Most fans are not very bright. That's why we have this forum. It's a place for sane, rational adults to commiserate about life and basketball and Michigan. When AI was brought in, the organization did not sell the fans that Stuckey would start. AI was supposedly brought in to replace Billups. Now that we have seen that the org. values Stuckey above both Rip and AI, it is obvious that Billups also was likely traded to facilitate the rise of Rodney to the starting lineup. The duplicity doesn't lie with my posts, but I believe, with the narrative of Keith Langlois.
Want to go back to ignoring each others posts? That was fun.

Re: CS27 vs C&C27
The Paceship PY26 has a good reputation. Mine is a P29. But the one you are looking at is a little jewel, and may be priced well above the average market value. I find the C&C30to be a large boat. Possibly too large if the wife never gets comfortable sailing.
Re: CS27 vs C&C27
I'm going to have a quick look tomorrow, I'm over on the mainland for some meetings so will scoot out to west van. As long as the boat is basically sound then I can always add things as I go along, at least that way I know exactly what they are and how old they are. Also helps that I can get a bunch of stuff at cost, including a new engine if necessary.
Re: CS27 vs C&C27
Great, thanks Jon, most appreciated. Dodger is a nice to have, same for furling (although given I sail single handed a lot of the time now, perhaps furling is getting a little further up the list). Yellow doesn't bother me, I'm a fan of coloured boats
I've also seen a red C&C30 up island, waiting to see if the dealer gets back to me with any more info on it regarding price flexibility - that one has furling, self tailing winches etc.
Of course if the missus never gets comfortable on a sailboat then I might as well keep my 24' as that's plenty big enough for just me
Re: CS27 vs C&C27
"Trincomali' used to belong to Steve Tupper, former head of BC Sailing...
Re: CS27 vs C&C27
Paul, I stopped by and had a look at them today. Harbour Yachts was closed so I couldn't get below on any of them - you'll have to go by the listings for that.
Of the two 27's I'd say Mr. Duck is the better one. Trincomali is noticeably scruffier - I'm not at all sure the gelcoat could be buffed back to a shine - that pale blue gelcoat C&C used back then never seemed very durable. Mr. Duck I think could be - it still shows some shine. As for deck equipment they are pretty similar. Mr. Duck has a better looking dodger with window covers. Their bottoms are about the same - need a good sanding & new paint but otherwise look fine. Mr. Duck has a better looking prop. Trincomali has a new looking, lifting outboard bracket. They both have jib furling.
The Grampian is by far the scruffiest of them. I think it would have to be painted - it's showing a lot of print through due to the gelcoat being thin I think. Of the 4 boats I'd place it last but it's also the biggest and has a big diesel so.... It does have a small rig - 126' less than the C&C 30 which is a big deal around here, as you know.
The C&C 30 looks in pretty good shape. Apparently it has been docked portside to for much of its life It has a winch farm on deck A La early IOR. No furling, just hanks and it has an Atomic Bomb, if you're one who worries about gas engines. No dodger on it either. It's the only one in the water so I couldn't check its bottom. The ports will all need redoing - the lens gaskets are all pulling out of the frames. Actually, ALL of them will need their ports redone if you care about seeing out. The 30 has a nice alloy front hatch where the 27's have fiberglass ones.
Considering they're all basically the same price - $10 - $12K asking, I think the C&C 30 has it, hands down. Unless there is something ugly inside like a dead or dying engine etc. it's the one I'd go for (even though it's yellow) - it's a lot more boat than the 27's and a lot nicer and better looking than the Grampian. Dodgers & furling are expensive though if you have a strong need for them - easily $5K unless you can find something used.
They're definitely worth a trip over to check out to see which one suits you - they all look like pretty solid boats from the outside and the C&C's all appear to have been loved most of their lives.
Re: CS27 vs C&C27
That's be great Jon, thanks. I see they also have a yellow C&C30 just listed, any chance of a quick peek at that if you have a minute? Cosmetic stuff I can handle, not scared to get busy scrubbing and buffing, even new cushions etc aren't too much to worry about.
Re: CS27 vs C&C27

Re: CS27 vs C&C27
There are a couple of donated C&C 27's at Harbour Yachts - or are those the ones you referred to?
Re: CS27 vs C&C27
Well I went to take a look at the CS27 up the road from me. All was going well until we got to the bulkheads, the port chainplate is leaking and that bulkhead is starting to rot, and the bulkhead between the v-berth and the hanging locker on the starboard side was shot. The rest of the boat was OK, plenty of cosmetics needed, new cushions, running rigging etc but otherwise fairly decent. It looked like a boat forgotten by its owner for a couple of years, and unfortunately those couple of years don't look like they've been kind to it. Shame as otherwise it seemed a nicely laid out boat.
Any thoughts on this? 27ft Paceship sailboat
Re: CS27 vs C&C27
Seems like the folks sailing C&C 27's are having a ball. The boat appears to have just the right mix to be able to race in light winds and cruise in heavier stuff. The C&C Association BBS is alive and kicking making for a bit of fun cult following. Not sure if the CS27 & C&C30 have the same chemistry. I'm close to buying a C&C 27 myself with the added possibility that if I have to trailer the old girl myself for storage, it is doable. Has the YSM12 which I think is gem.

Not so with this arse - 'compass_paranormal' had a Boba belt pouches up for sale that I won, as the picture looked pretty good and at the time I was getting tired of making everything myself. I decided to cut corners and buy this. The pouches came and I nearly cried. The leather was in fact not leather, and was probably the cheapest, thinnest vinyl possible. The wood this guy used was like lead and the pattern had cuts all over the seam lines and had no slots to fit onto a belt.
Ebay is a great place for people to resell items for the same price they paid for them 20 years ago and to sell garbage for high prices. Let this be a cautionary tale of what can and likely will go wrong with Ebay and trying to save a few pennies - you end up S.O.L. and a few bucks poorer! Just buy off the people here.

Yesterday, my son and I took my grandson on his first deer hunt. A friend of mine had access to some nice property that happened to have a stand that would accommodate both my son and grandson. We got into the woods about 2:00. I was set up about 150 yards to the north of my son and grandson, my friend about 100 yards to his south. My grandson was positibe that "we'd" get a deer. Things were pretty quite for about an hour and a half. My friend saw a doe traveling towards my son, so he texts him that one is coming!? The deer passes about 15 yards in front of my son and grandson. The little guy's heart was pounding so hard that I was sure I could hear it in my stand. Anyway, my son thought the deer was a little small, but considering that his 8 year old was there, he decided to shoot. He hit the deer, but he thought the shot was a little far back. The deer scampered off about 25 yards and laid down. It stayed there licking it's wounds for about 20 minutes (it was in a position where my son could not get a second shot), they it got up and walked into a field. They lost sight behind some brush at the edge of the field. When I got there, we didn't have much light, so tracking was starting to get difficult. We tracked it into the field, and it jumped up and ran about 50 yards and laid down again. We followed it and again, it jumped up and ran another 50 yards. By then it was pretty dark, and I told them that I'd go back in the morning and track it down. This morning, I went back and started to search the field in sections in a zig zag pattern. On the third pass, I found the deer. It turned out to have a pretty serious case of ground shrinkage, it was a button buck.
When my grandson got off the school bus, the first thing he asked was if I found the deer. Now he can't wait to have venison for dinner. He's off from school tomorrow, so he's going to help me butcher it!

Pictures: Chinese fans attend viewing parties
Arsenal fans in China have been out in force to cheer on the Gunners at special viewing parties this season.
Twenty-two local supporter club events took place in 21 cities for the Manchester United game on November 3 and a further 16 events were held in 14 cities for the north London derby win over Tottenham.
The games weren't the only attraction. A limited-edition Arsenal kit was auctioned in Guangzhou while fans across the country learned terrace chants at their viewing parties.
Meanwhile in Jinan, supporters showed their dedication to the Arsenal cause by gathering for their event despite a major storm in the region.

Providence, R.I. – Top-ranked Quinnipiac scored three goals in the final 12 minutes of regulation to rally for a 4-3 win against the Canisius College hockey team in the NCAA East Regional Semifinal on Saturday night. The Griffs, ranked 20th in the latest national poll, end their season with a 19-19-5 record
Juniors Kyle Gibbons and Patrick Sullivan and sophomore Stephen Farrell all scored for the Griffs.
Junior Tony Capobianco recorded 36 saves on the night, finishing the campaign with a school-record 1,256 stops in 41 games.
The Bobcats (28-7-5) controlled the early portion of the contest and took advantage at the 8:43 mark of the opening period with the game's first goal. Connor Jones one-timed a shot from the top of the left face-off circle for the early 1-0 lead.
The Griffs responded in the second frame and took its first lead of the game with two tallies in a 44-second span. Farrell netted Canisius' first-ever NCAA Tournament goal 4:24 into the period, scoring his second of the season to tie the game. From behind the net, senior captain Preston Shupe centered the puck and Farrell scored from the slot. Freshman Ralph Cuddemi also registered an assist on the game-tying goal.
Canisius then quickly took the lead, scoring just 44 seconds later with Sullivan's eighth of the season. Junior defender Duncan McKellar fired a shot toward goal from the point and Sullivan tipped it in for the 2-1 lead. Senior Ben Parker added an assist for the Griffs.
The Griffs then stretched their advantage to two when Gibbons netted his team-leading 21st goal of the season. The junior gathered a loose puck at the boards, made his way toward goal and swatted in his own rebound for a 3-1 Canisius lead with 16:17 remaining in regulation. Sullivan recorded the lone assist to give the Griffs a two-goal advantage.
The Bobcats, however, came back strong with the final three goals to secure the victory. Matthew Peca started the run with 11:58 remaining in the third, sneaking a puck past Capobianco from close range to pull within one, 3-2. Jordan Samuels-Thomas then fired a shot in on the power play to tie the game at three with 9:18 left in regulation.
Quinnipiac continued to pour on the pressure and grabbed the lead with just 5:32 left in the third when Kevin Bui knocked in a rebound on a rush for the 4-3 advantage.
The Bobcats were then able to hold the lead for the final five-plus minutes, successfully killing off a Canisius power play plus a 1:29 with an empty net for the one-goal victory.
Quinnipiac finished the game with a 40-23 advantage in shots on the night. The Bobcats were also 1-for-3 on the power play, while killing both Canisius extra-man chances.
The Bobcats now advance to face the winner of Boston College and Union in Sunday's East Regional Final.
Game Notes: The loss ended the Griffs' program-record eight-game winning streak, which was also the longest active streak in the country … Canisius finished the season with a school-record penalty kill unit of 90.1 percent, becoming just the 10th team in NCAA history to finish with a penalty kill above 90.0 percent … Capobianco finished the season with school records in saves (1,256), save percentage (.929) and shutouts (four) … The junior's 1,256 saves are the 12th-most in NCAA history and the most since Lance Madson (Notre Dame) and Bill Pye (Northern Michigan) during the 1988-89 season … Gibbons finished his junior campaign with 43 points and 21 goals, which both rank third in the program's Division I history … Junior defender Ben Danford set the program's record by appearing in his 117th-straight game, while senior captain Torrey Lindsay played in his 146th-career contest, the most by a Griff in the school's history … The contest marked the final game for Lindsay, Parker and Shupe plus senior defender Chris Barrea … The four seniors combined to appear in 472 career games with 164 points (57g, 107a).

Re: Candid pictures of our cars.
Very nice work there, John. You'd never know this was a nearly 20-year-old car. Love how the emblems reflect off the bumper. What did you use for the chrome? I need to detail Betty for car show season, and I'd love to have bumpers that shined like yours.
As for the hood ornament, just be patient and keep looking every so often. You could easily find one that's mint for cheap. I did, and I even managed to sell the faded one for more than I paid for the new one!
Is the hood ornament different on the RWD models vs. FWD? You could always just swap it with the Fleetwood.
Re: Candid pictures of our cars.
As for chrome polish, Turtle wax chrome polish is great stuff. You can find it at any O'Riley's, Pep-Boys, etc.
Re: Candid pictures of our cars.
The RWD emblems are HUGE compared to the FWD ones, but then again everything on the RWD cars is large and in charge.
The pictures look a lot better than it does in person. It is one of those cars that looks great from about 5 feet back but when you get close you start to see all the imperfections. I recently had a chip of paint come off near my rear door (I cut myself trying to find a dime) and I found several scratches while waxing it. The car was repainted and they did a shitty job and the person who had it repainted was a retard for accepting such poor work. Here you can also see my nasty headlight from when the bulb exploded inside it. I bought a new pair off Ebay for $99 and they should be arriving soon. It looks awful at night because it scatters the light and makes it look all yellowy.

Re: Candid pictures of our cars.
Even so, for a nearly 20-year-old car, it looks good. Cruella has a number of nicks and scratches, plus the hood has a lot of chips in it. I think the DS quarter panel may have been repainted at some point because it's a bit faded, while the rest of the paint is still pretty shiny.
Thanks for the tip on the Never Dull. Besides the bumpers, I'll bet they'll do a great job on Betty's hubcaps. Those spinners will really gleam.
I looked up on the Eagle One site and saw they now have a wheel coating to prevent brake dust, which drives me nuts. Will have to swing by NAPA this week.
Re: Candid pictures of our cars.
The Eldorado hanging out the the Prelude. They both need to be cleaned up but it won't stop raining around here it seems like.
Here's one where I was just out riding around and just happened to have my camera with me. Came out pretty good I thought.
Re: Candid pictures of our cars.
John, your Brougham is magnificent. I love those 90-92's. They perfected one of their best designs.
Re: Candid pictures of our cars.
I know on my past Cadillacs and my Lincoln, buying a new/NOS hood ornament made it feel like driving a whole new car.... odd how that played with the mind I guess.
BTW, FWD and RWD hood ornaments are NOT interchangable. Besides the size, they use an entirely different base setup.
SMILE! Candid:
The 20-yr update continues.... may as well be a brand new car by the time I'm done with it...
Re: Candid pictures of our cars.
Re: Candid pictures of our cars.
They were originally designed to hold the entire wheel on, not just the hubcap. Instead of torquing lug nuts you would take a brass or other soft faced hammer and smash those suckers on tight. The brass was softer than the spinning hubs so it didn't damage them (usually). You can buy spinner hubs again though as I have seen some 100 spoke aftermarket wheels with them.
Re: Candid pictures of our cars.
Normally, I hate wire wheel covers, but the spinners make the ones on Betty look cool.
BTW, I bought some of that Never Dull polish and the Eagle One Wheel Keep Clean. Now I just need to find time to wash and detail Betty before Saturday's show. I'll try to post some before and after pictures.
Re: Candid pictures of our cars.
How bout' some candid XXX pics of Noelle's undercarriage???
This is why her middle name is Pandora.
Transmission was supported by a jackstand in that picture, no difference, as I could bench press the thing. Not seeing it? Here:
Both tranmissions mounts no longer.... mounted anything. They were simply now "supports" That above picture was just from supporting the weight of the trans with a jack stand and unbolting the crossmember from the car. It's not supposed to do that. That trans oil leak is also on the list of things to fix.
2-piece driveshaft w/ Center Support Bearing. The entire exhaust system had to be dropped to get to this.
E30 playa!
Totally shot shifter linkage assembly that allowed un-BMW amounts of play in the shifter. I'm thinking between the extremely shot linkage assembly and the 2 transmission mounts that were.....shot... it may have had something to do with the trouble downshifting into 2nd... so maybe the synchros aren't as bad as I thought. We'll see.
Cost to rebuild the entire shifter assembly replacing every single wear item? $350 in parts from the dealer. Heck I'm just happy BMW still (fully!) supports the E30, you can buy a whole factory dash from them (for $550!) that is even upgraded with the new BMW material. To heck with costs, I just applaud the fact that they still support their old stuff.... GM gives up on things after 7-10yrs.
With that said, $100 of that $350 went to my new short shifter - Z3 1.9, which most E30 fans consider to be just about the perfect blend and feel for a fun daily driver. Stock E30 325i on the left, Z3 1.9 on the right. Maybe now shifting gears in the BMW won't feel like the Jeep anymore.
Once this is all back together, it'll be finished off with a nice, real BMW shift knob, as well as a nice new leather shifter and parking brake boot kit. Seeing as how the manual transmission, IMO is the entire central point of this whole car, this work alone is just huge, and I can't wait to see what it'll be like after words.
These are only a few of the issues/pictures. I never took pictures of the rear shock mounts that were literally not even holding the shocks to the chassis of the car anymore. In fact, I am rather amazed at how well the car, as a whole... still just.... worked. With a certain level of percision too. I mean, the suspension was shot, but she still handled. Every part in the shifter linkage that could wear out, is, and both transmisson mounts are split in half... the shifter had about a foot of play in gear, yet it still went into each gear, every time, I could shift aggressive and it still did it's thing. The distrubutor cap and rotor were original (date code stamped on them) and in turn, about as worn out as they could reasonably get.... yet the engine still ran, with some level of performance (it sounds and revs much better now tho!) Really, it is just amazing how well built this car is, for it to perform the way it was, in the condition it was in. To say it'll be like a whole new car to me once complete will be an understatement.
Ah well.... it's all in the fun. I'm sleepy now.
Re: Candid pictures of our cars.
How many miles are on the BMW?
Re: Candid pictures of our cars.
Right around 140k
She's a 1990, with a build date of 7/89. Same month as my birthday, shes coming up on 20 yrs old. Good news on E30s, they don't have alot of rubber parts that fail over time. Bad news with E30s, the rubber parts they do have, are a bit more involved to replace then a comparable GM etc...
I don't blame any of the worn out stuff on the car at all, I mean it's a 20-yr old car with 140k miles, and who knows what kind of life it lived in the past.
IIRC, I am the 4th owner, and it was a leased vehicle when new, which could be a good or bad thing. Maybe some rich lawyer had it and took it to the dealer for everything (BMW was strict about that, especially their leases) but leased vehicles can sometimes be driven harder/abused.
In any case, my car definitly shows (many) signs of being driven hard in it's past. All wear items that would fail/wear/need to be replaced from hard driving, were shot on my car. It's really not a big deal, as I'm sure I drive it just as hard as anyone in the past... I guess it's some of the thrill with the old BMW's they were built well and cold hold up to alot. I'm going to enjoy the heck outta this thing, it's my favorite car I've owned to date. The plan is, if it breaks, I fix it. Keeps things simple that way
She'll be going up to NY with me later this year when I got back for a week, so I'm going to be doing even other preventative maintenace items sooner, rather then later as well.

Explore human behavior in connection to self, community, and service while gaining an understanding of the scientific methodology of psychology via laboratory, coursework, and experiential learning.
The Psychology Minor provides a rigorous, exciting, and complex exploration of the science of behavior and mental processes, grounding you with an understanding of how psychology is applied in therapeutic and research settings. Delve into individual development, cognition and memory, personality, abnormal behavior, and group, social, and cultural processes.
Review the requirements for a Minor in Psychology.
This course explores the major paradigms of personality theory through the use of lectures, discussions, and case studies. Current research is examined and models of personality development are discussed as they relate to current clinical practices. Perspectives will include biological and trait; psychoanalysis, along with other Neo-Freudian perspectives; feminist; socialbehavioral; and humanistic/holistic.
In this course students will examine three historical East Indian texts on the nature of consciousness, mind and psychology: Samkhya's philosophy, The Taittreya Upanishads and Patanjali's Yoga Sutras. We will critically explore how the interpretation of these historical texts is shaped by academics, those with political agendas, gurus, and the writers of popular New Age texts. We will also explore the ideas presented within these texts within our own lives, reflecting on the process by which we make meaning. This course is primarily lecture and discussion based.

About the fuel, 5 engine allocation, how Ducati "sucks", and other things, I want you to try read this interview with Ramón Forcada:
Ramón Forcada: "Los mejores años en Yamaha fueron cuando estaban Valentino y Lorenzo†| Solomoto | MotoGP
It's one of the best pieces of interview I've read this year. Definitely a wise man in my eyes.
(in spanish; so if google translate doesn't do a good job, let me know and I'll translate it later)
I speak to you as a technician, because the person running the championship must look beyond this. As a technician I believe things are going backwards. Look, there's something very clear: the motorcycle, as a concept, is one of the most limited vehicles in the world. I mean, a complete disaster, as a vehicle. It has a really good engine that delivers a brutal amount of power, an extremely good weight to power ratio, so it's capable of doing, I don't know, 340 km/h, but that the first corner it can only achieve about 70 km/h. Please picture the mess. A machine that's worth five or six million euros that can only go 70 km/h in a corner, considering a closed circuit and perfect conditions.
If instead of spending five million euros on this bike, you spend 20, keeping the same tires and vehicle structure, you might get to 72 km/h in that corner, and I'm not even sure, because at the end the limit is at the tire, and a bike is just a bike. It involves a mass supported on the ground by a piece of rubber with a certain amount of grip. Even if you want to stick 20 million euros in there, using any and all systems, putting platinum valves and whatever electronics you choose, you'll make that corner going 70 km/h, and anything more and you'll crash, because then it's just the tire that counts.
This clear limitation, use it. If you look at the past, the best championship was in the first years of 4 stroke machines with satellite teams. Why? Because all motorcycles had the same limit, you could see satellite bikes making poles, winning races, and costing much less than now, because the rider would keep making the difference. What was different? The freedom.
For example, when they did the first 4 strokes, the first 1000, the rulebook was very clear: motorcycle displacement should be less than a 1000cc, they must weigh at least 145kg, have 24 liters of fuel, must have 6 gears, and rims can be 16.5 or 17" on the front, with a maximum width of 4", and the rear a maximum width of 6.25" and 17". That's it.
In that context, what happened? There were people who made an inline 4 engine, because that's what they were experienced in, what they had been doing their whole life; there were others, like Honda, who thought that with how the distribution of weights was playing, the ideal engine would be 5 cylinders in V; Suzuki and Kawasaki made 4 cylinders in V; Aprilia used a 3 cylinder engine. And bikes rode around everywhere. For the guy that knows how to make an inline 4 engine, it is much cheaper to make that, than a V shaped engine. But then you start with limitations...you tell him "piston diameter should be this much"; if his technology was to make them with a larger diameter, you are forcing him to study a way to achieve performance inside that limit. The more limitations imposed, the more you need to invest to work inside the limits.
Here's a very simple thing. You say, engines should be 1000cc, so everyone's equal; make it the way you see fit, the tire is this one, and you have 18 liters of fuel. Just as simple as that. Each factory will apply their own technology, make what they can.
|I think the fans also watch the races to see the technological progress, and not just the battles between riders.
I hear something's being built this side of the mountains, but it will be due in 2014, at the least. I haven't heard much detail, though, but it'd be the first time we host something like this.
If there's a circuit, things will move lightly, as political problems like Argentina's topic are pretty much inexistant here.
I hope something shakes loose in the area soon for you. MotoGP is something to behold in person.
One of my lifetime goals is to go to some of the European races some day. Philip Island would be nice too.
