Fox Ignores Facts Of Global Economy To Attack Obama Campaign Over Euro-Zone Fears
Fox & Friends claimed that the Obama administration is using the European economic crisis as "an excuse" to explain continued economic struggles in the U.S., saying that Obama campaign adviser David Axelrod is "totally wrong" to be concerned about "what happens in Europe." In fact, economists and experts agree that European recessions and the declining value of the euro are having a large negative impact on the U.S. economy -- as did other global events, like the earthquake in Japan and the Arab Spring.
Fox & Friends Claims Obama Admin. "Us[ing]" European Fiscal Crisis As "An Excuse" For Poor U.S. Economy
Varney: Axelrod Is "Totally Wrong" That "What Happens In Europe" Could Be Affecting U.S. Economy. On the January 17 edition of Fox News' Fox & Friends, co-host Brian Kilmeade began a segment by asking, "Are new economic downgrades in Europe setting the stage for the Obama administration to use that as an excuse for their poor record on the economy?" A clip was then aired showing Obama campaign adviser David Axelrod telling CNN's Candy Crowley that "external factors" such as "what happens in Europe" are concerns of the campaign. Fox Business host Stuart Varney responded by saying Axelrod was "totally wrong" to be concerned about Europe and claimed that Axelrod is "setting up an excuse for the poor economy." From the broadcast:
KILMEADE: Are new economic downgrades in Europe setting the stage for the Obama administration to use that as an excuse for their poor record on the economy?
[start video]
CROWLEY: Somebody in your campaign told me not that long ago, when I said, what do you most worry about in terms of campaign strategy? Is it Romney? Is it Gingrich? Is it -- and he said, no, it's the economy. Is that still -- hold true?
AXELROD: Well, I think external factors, what happens in Europe, you know, what happens in other places in the world, and frankly, the other thing that worries me are these big super PACs that we see Governor Romney and others benefitting from right now.
[end video]
ERIC BOLLING (guest host): And Stuart Varney joins us. What do you think of that little interchange between the talk show host and David Axelrod? And is he right?
VARNEY: David Axelrod is setting up an excuse for the poor performance of the U.S. economy as we go into the election. He's saying it's outside factors that lead to high unemployment, a weak economy and a housing crash.
KILMEADE: Is he wrong?
VARNEY: He's totally wrong. He's diverting attention from the failure of the president's policies on energy, on stimulus, on government spending, on the housing market. The president has failed in those areas. David Axelrod is trying to dress it up and excuse that failure by pointing to so-called outside factors.
GRETCHEN CARLSON (co-host): All right. They just go back into the bag and bring out another thing to use.
VARNEY: Yeah. Give you three months, we'll find something else to blame. [Fox News, Fox & Friends, 1/17/12]
Varney Also Complained Obama Administration Blamed "The [Japanese] Tsunami" And "The Arab Spring." Also during the January 17 broadcast, Varney complained that the Obama administration "divert[ed] attention from ... a failed economic policy" by blaming "the tsunami" in Japan and "the Arab Spring." From Fox & Friends:
CARLSON: Well, this isn't the first time that they've done this.
VARNEY: No, it wasn't. Last year it was the tsunami and before that, it was the Arab Spring. Now, it's Europe. It diverts attention from what has been, in my opinion, a failed economic policy. [Fox News, Fox & Friends, 1/17/12]
In Fact, Experts Agree The European Crisis Could Have "Grave" Effects On The U.S.
AP: "Europe's Sputtering Growth Is Already Dragging On Some U.S. Companies' Profits And Could Further Slow The U.S. Economy." A November 13, 2011, Associated Press (AP) article stated that the "European Union is the No. 1 U.S. trading partner." The article went on to cite a Wells Fargo estimate that "the U.S. economy will grow 2.1 percent next year, 0.4 percentage point lower because of Europe's slowdown" and also noted that Goldman Sachs has predicted that Europe's "slowdown could shave a full percentage point off U.S. growth." From the article:
The tremors from Europe's financial upheaval have reached U.S. shores, rattling consumers and companies.
The consequences have been limited so far. Yet the United States and Europe are so closely linked that any slowdown across the Atlantic is felt here. U.S. makers of cars, solar panels, drugs, clothes and computer equipment have all reported effects from Europe's turmoil.
Worries that Europe's crisis could worsen and spread are spooking investors and consumers just as the holiday shopping season nears. Some fear U.S. consumers could rein in spending. Europe's sputtering growth is already dragging on some U.S. companies' profits and could further slow the U.S. economy.
The crisis "seems to be coming to a head right at the time the U.S. economy is at its most vulnerable," said Mark Vitner, an economist at Wells Fargo.
The European Union is the No. 1 U.S. trading partner. Nearly $475 billion in goods crossed between the regions in the first nine months of 2011. About 14 percent of revenue for the 500 biggest U.S. companies -- roughly $1.3 trillion -- comes from Europe.
The U.S. economy is especially vulnerable to the European crisis because it's growing so weakly and facing other risks, such as weak hiring, stagnant pay, high energy costs, a wide trade deficit and potentially steep government spending cuts.
"It won't take much to tip us into another recession," said Sung Won Sohn, an economics professor at California State University, Channel Islands. "If Europe gets into any deeper trouble, it will take us and the rest of the world down, too."
Wells Fargo estimates that the U.S. economy will grow 2.1 percent next year, 0.4 percentage point lower because of Europe's slowdown. Goldman Sachs thinks the region's slowdown could shave a full percentage point off U.S. growth.
Even if Europe doesn't fall into a downturn, its turmoil is affecting U.S companies and consumers in several ways:
- Stock-market gyrations unsettle consumers and make them more cautious about spending.
- U.S. companies with big European operations are suffering from lower sales, prices and profits.
- Banks worldwide are cutting lending and hoarding cash to create more cushion for potentially deep losses on their holdings of Greek, Italian and other government debt. U.S. and overseas banks are keeping about $1.57 trillion in reserves at the Federal Reserve -- a jump of nearly $580 billion in the past year.
- Uncertainty about how much damage Europe could cause is making corporations reluctant to spend their piles of cash to hire and invest. [AP, 11/13/11 [1], via MSNBC.com]
Bernanke: "I Don't Think We Would Be Able To Escape The Consequences Of A Blow-Up In Europe." A November 13, 2011, Reuters article about U.S. efforts to "safeguard its financial system from a worsening of Europe's debt crisis" estimated that U.S. financial institutions might have over "$4 trillion" of direct and indirect "bank exposure" to European countries. The article also noted, "A Fed survey last week showed that about half the top U.S. banks had loans to European banks or were extending credit to them. If European banks ran into trouble and were unable to repay their loans, U.S. banks could face sizable losses." From the article:
The United States is ramping up attempts to safeguard its financial system from a worsening of Europe's debt crisis, joining nations in Asia, Latin America and elsewhere in trying to build firewalls.
U.S. policymakers, alarmed by the political upheaval in Italy and Greece, are digging deep into the books of American banks to find out how exposed they might be to euro zone creditors and the plunging value of sovereign debt.
Officials were stung by the implosion of Wall Street firm MF Global, which gambled and lost on European debt, and they are working on contingency plans for a worst-case scenario should another financial firm crumble.
While the Treasury has been at pains to say that direct U.S. bank exposure to European countries now receiving bailout aid -- Greece, Ireland and Portugal -- is moderate, once the debt of Italy and Spain, plus credit default swaps, and U.S. bank indirect exposure through European banks are added, the potential sum could exceed $4 trillion.
"As such, the potential for contagion to the U.S. financial system is not small," the Institute of International Finance, the lobby group for major international banks, said last week.
There is a secondary level of exposure that is potentially more worrying -- through international banks lending to each other. Here the greatest risk stems from Italy and France. International bank claims on Italy total $939 billion, and French banks account for well over one-third of that, BIS data show. French banks also rely heavily on short-term loans from other international banks for their daily operations. If Italian debt slumps even further, causing deeper losses for French banks, international banks could stop lending to France. The losses would ripple through the whole global financial system.
The United States learned the hard way how these indirect financial linkages work when imploding credit default swaps forced it into a $180 billion bailout of insurance giant American International Group (AIG.N) in 2008 to prevent further contagion in the banking sector.
Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke was frank last week about the risks: "It is not something that we would be insulated from ... I don't think we would be able to escape the consequences of a blow-up in Europe."

Wash. Post: "The Ripples" Of Europe's Banking Crisis "Have Spread All The Way To The United States." From a December 9, 2011, Washington Post article:
The ripples have spread all the way to the United States.
"You're seeing banks walking away from real estate commitments here," said a senior U.S. investment banker for real estate who asked for anonymity to protect his business relationships. "It's like a weight loss program. Only the Germans want you to go on a fasting program right now."
Standard & Poor's says it assigned ratings to two U.S. power plant developments that were delayed by several months because the developers were worried about lining up financing given the "choppy" European markets. A U.S. private equity firm says it pulled back from a major U.S. investment at the last moment because the company sells goods to Europe and economic conditions there are so uncertain.
"It was too much exposure to Europe," a person familiar with the deal said on the condition of anonymity to protect business relationships.
That could mean months of slow lending that resembles the dearth of financing that contributed to the recession that hit in the United States in 2008. An economic slowdown in Europe could be grave. Banco Santander reported its first-ever quarterly loss for operations in Portugal, for example, and expects to shrink lending in Spain. A Citigroup report pointed to "a contraction in loans and margins" in the Iberian peninsula. [The Washington Post, 12/9/11 [3]]
Wash. Post: Princeton Economist Shin Says European Banks "Could Do A Lot More Damage Than Expected" To The U.S. A December 22, 2011, Washington Post article contained interviews with several leading economists about the "effect of [the] European banking crisis on [the] U.S." While some economists remained optimistic that the effects would be limited, many others were "pessimists," with one predicting that European banks could "do a lot more damage than expected as they pull back" and another estimating that a slowdown in the euro-zone "could shave 1 percentage point off of U.S. economic growth over the next year." From the Post:
As European banks unwind, will the U.S. recovery come undone?
That's what U.S. economists are trying to figure out as European banks, scrambling to strengthen their balance sheets, cut back on lending to American businesses and households.
Princeton University economist Hyun Song Shin said in a recent paper that European banks have played a much bigger role in the U.S. economy than has been generally thought -- and could do a lot more damage than expected as they pull back.
Shin says European banks grew not only by making direct loans to U.S. businesses but also by sucking up vast U.S. money-market deposits and purchasing U.S. mortgage securities. During the previous decade, "European banks may have played a pivotal role in influencing credit conditions in the United States," and that helped fuel the U.S. housing and financial bubble, Shin argued in a recent paper.
But now it could hurt the U.S. recovery as European banks shrink and bolster their capital reserves. "The European crisis of 2011 and the associated deleveraging of the European global banks will have far reaching implications not only for the eurozone, but also for credit supply conditions in the United States and capital flows to the emerging economies," Shin wrote in a paper presented at an International Monetary Fund conference in November and which has been widely read among economists.
The vast extent of those European bank obligations to U.S. institutions, or counter-parties, helps explain U.S. policymakers' anxiety as they watch European leaders try to head off a crisis like the one that followed the Lehman Brothers failure in the United States in 2008.
Goldman Sachs chief economist Jan Hatzius is among the pessimists. He says the slowdown in the euro-zone economy could shave 1 percentage point off of U.S. economic growth over the next year, with about half of that a direct result of a pullback by European banks.
Foreign banks' branches account for about one-fifth of all commerical [sic] and industrial lending in the United States, Hatzius wrote in a recent Goldman Sachs report. While domestic banks are easing lending standards, a recent Federal Reserve study showed that those foreign banks are tightening standards in the United States. Hatzius wrote that "some pullback is indeed visible" already.
Other U.S. economists are more sanguine.
Mark Zandi, chief economist of Moody's Economy.com, said there were signs that some European banks were tightening lending standards in the United States as well as abroad, but he said "the damage might be limited because the U.S. banks are filling the void." [The Washington Post, 12/22/11 [4]]
Even The Conservative Heritage Foundation Says European Economic Woes Contribute To "Bad Uncertainty" In U.S.
Heritage Foundation: "The Issue Is Global Financial Interconnectedness ... A Major U.S. Trading Partner Will Be In A Slump, And So U.S. Exports To Europe Will Suffer." From a September 23, 2011, report published by The Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank:
Five years ago, one might have viewed the European financial crisis, that is, the existential threat to European financial institutions and markets, as mostly a European affaire. To be sure, American financial institutions hold some of this dodgy European debt, as well. There have even been stories that super-safe money market funds have loaded up on scary levels of high-yielding Greek debt. But, on balance, one would have thought a financial contagion in Europe would be stopped at water's edge. Five years ago, the Europeans thought the same thing about the then-rumored U.S. subprime mortgage fiasco about to unfold.
The issue is global financial interconnectedness. This is where matters get murky. No one, including the participants and including the financial regulators, really knows or understands all the connections, or all the weaknesses. We know in great detail, for example, how much foreign debt by country each of our banks own. But for years the Europeans have assured the world their true exposure to sovereign debt risk was limited because they had hedged their positions with credit default swaps (CDS). Note, however, that CDS do not eliminate risk but merely shift it. To whom? No one really knows.
As these events unfold, the essential consequence for the United States economy is a large dose of bad uncertainty. Bad uncertainty is analogous to bad cholesterol. It builds up and creates economic blockages. In the economic sphere, this shows up as decisions delayed or downscaled, decisions that under normal times would produce the actions that produce growth. Europe is clearly adding to the headwinds facing the economy today.
The depth and length of the recession in each country will vary, but none will be immune. Many of these countries suffered poorly performing economies before the crisis. For the United States the implications if not the magnitudes are clear - a major U.S. trading partner will be in a slump, and so U.S. exports to Europe will suffer.
If the U.S. economy were in good shape, a drop in exports would simply be another headwind to be overcome. In 1997, during the Asian economic crisis, the U.S. experienced an event similar in nature if not magnitude, but the U.S. economy was reasonably strong and accelerating and so the headwinds from the Asian crisis were essentially imperceptible in the aggregate.
Unfortunately, rather than strengthening, the U.S. economy today is flat on its back, and facing the very real possibility of yet another recession even without the headwinds of Europe. President Obama's economic policies have failed utterly and completely. Mounting a sustained, robust, job-creating U.S. recovery under the circumstances will prove very difficult. [Heritage Foundation, 9/23/11 [5]]
And Last Year, Experts Agreed Tsunami, Arab Spring "Stifled" U.S. "Economic Growth"
Experts Agree "Economic Growth Was Stifled By Temporary Factors" Such As Japanese Earthquake And "Arab Spring." Experts widely agreed that global events such as the March 2011 earthquake in Japan and the Arab Spring had an effect on global economic activity. An August 2011 article on CNN Money noted, "In the first quarter [of 2011], economic growth was stifled by temporary factors, including supply disruptions stemming from the Japan earthquake and a spike in gasoline prices following the Arab Spring political uprisings."

text: That was a fairly entertaining game, but it was also kind of depressing catching a lot of the old guard on their back nine. It looked like a bomb threat was called into The Palace. How many games in a row has the Pistons $100 million dollar bench been outscored? I let out an audible groan when I saw the Pistons were shooting 1-16 from the 3pt line at one point. I was also surprised to see the Pistons with such a slight advantage on the O boards. It seemed like they should have been up double figures. Almost 18 and 30 minutes for CG (great nickname 'Scoe) and Jogging Rodney tonight. I didn't think it was very sporting of Jerebko to pour it on young Rodney with his 16 and 10 or so tonight after his controversial Rookie of the Month victory today. His ability to finish around the hoop is something else. He is doing a much better job on the D boards also. Tay has been ballin'.

HEI Wiring Problems... stumped...
Here is the deal.
Just got done with putting a carburated sbc in my C1500 chevy pickup. Thing runs great.
For mockup I ran the HEI distributor right off the battery. Got the motor timed for 32* total advance, all in at 3200 rpm. Initial is about 10*.
All was good.
After getting everything buttoned up, it was time to go back and tie up the loose ends.
I decided to hook the HEI up to a keyed- hot wire.
After doing this, the motor would start and run fine, but after I turned the key off, the dash lights would stay on, and the motor would keep running. To shut the motor off I would have to go out and unplug the Keyed hot wire from the BAT terminal on the HEI. As soon as I did this, the motor would shut off and the dash lights would turn off.
Hmmm. Interesting. Checked the keyed hot again... sure enough... when unplugged from the dizzy it acts as expected. Key on: 14.1v+ , Key off: 0volts.
I figured the HEI was back feeding somehow into the wiring, so then i decided to hook it up to a relay.
The coil was then hooked up to a DIFFERENT keyed hot (radio terminal in the fuse block). I then hooked up the common to the battery and the N.O terminal to the BAT terminal on the battery.
Check everything with a voltage tester... all good. Key on: 14.1v+ Key off: 0 volts
Try to start the motor...
This time it cranks and cranks and cranks and then starts chugging. BUT NOT THE GOOD KIND! Fuel starts spraying out of the carberator and the motor is carrying on. Shut the key off and it dies. Acts like the timing is WAY off. The motor was actually bumping of the starter and trying to fire over backwards. Wierd.
Try again... Does the same thing.
Try again... Does the same thing.
I think ... hmmm. I wonder if the cam or dizzy jumped timing.
So I hot wire it back up to the battery. Crank it over... **** you not the first revolution the motor fires right up and runs perfect.
Switched it back to the relay thinking it was a fluke.. nope.
WTF is going on?
Im beyond confused.
Not a wiring guru but somehow when you hook it up to ignition power it(I think maybe) is sending power through the ground which is why it is lighting up the dash. How is the motor grounded and is the chasis grounded? Just a guess hope it helps
it sounds like alternator back feed. You may need to put a diode in the feed line to the alternator. this is usually due to some other wiring issue. if you do a search here for diode you should find some info.
Theres got to be a wrong electrical hook up.
Try unplugging the two wire plug at the alternator.
Then start your engine see if you can shut it off.
If so your alternater is back feeding through the idiot light(brown wire)
If that doesnt work.. it try unhooking the bat wire at the alternator then start it and shut it down if that works its back feeding that way.
Hope this helps :thumbup:
Your problem is definitly alernator backfeed. but the radiocircuit is not powered during crankingwhich is why your engin did not start with the relay. putting the relay back in line to the dist. through a circuit that is hot in crankand run should correct that problem and take care of the back feeding from the alt.Hook the hot at the dist. to the hot on th coil of the relayand take the other side to ground. then hook a separate line ,from a line that is hot at all times though a fuse ,to the line into the contacts of the relayand the N.O. side to the dist.

It's refreshing to hear a former skater not hold back on how they felt. I think their whole interview is available on iTunes if you don't want to wait for the other parts to be posted.

"We used this card for our little boy's seventh birthday and it turned out beautifully! The card stock is amazing and the pictures looked spectacular. We've always had great service using Tiny Prints. Thank you for such amazing products."
"The quality of paper used, the colors, and the style helped make this invite for my little guys 4th birthday party too perfect. It captures his sweet and funny personality to a T. You always deliver perfection tiny prints, thanks!"
"We rec'd the order quickly. It looks beautiful and I love the paper texture/thickness. We did the banner design on the back and it look great! I'm very happy with my order and will order from Tiny Prints again."
"Great choice for an invite if you want to share pictures of your little one from the past year. There are even spaces to add more pictures to the back. Good quality paper and the glossy finish really makes it pop. Make sure to choose the modified rectangular envelopes so you don't have to pay extra postage."
"The day after I placed my order, I received a call from a very nice woman from Tiny Prints who was working on our invitations. She informed me that, despite her efforts to correct it, one of the pictures I submitted was too blurry to use. She was genuinely concerned that the quality of our cards would suffer and recommended that we submit an alternate photo. I submitted a new photo and was thrilled with the results when our invitations arrived. I was also pleasantly surprised to receive a hand written thank you note from the lady who spoke with me on the phone. I was blown away by the gesture. The level of customer service at Tiny Prints is outstanding! This is my third order with the company and I intend to stay loyal. ."

Is there a site or page where one can find the definitive list of Boba Fett costume specs for both ESB and ROTJ separately? A place where they show pictures and measurements on each different component (armor, vest, flightsuit, gun, etc) illustrating every buckle, flap, pocket and fold?
I'm trying to put together a ROTJ set both from folks around here and self-build, and am having a heck of a time finding information on all of the details I need.

Does anyone know what would happen if I just left my job and went freelance/ found another job - what would be the likely repercussions?
Would I have to leave the country?

Ingry Umanzor left her job as a bank teller to make her courses and clinical work in the University of St. ThomasSchool of Nursing her first priority. Umanzor, who said she relied on God to provide, is one of the 2013 Alumni Association Student Award recipients.
This year's Two Saints and Taco Tastingscholarship fundraiser, combined with funds from other endowed and annual Alumni Association funds, allowed $50,000 to be distributed to eight students. Umanzor will receive the largest amount of all recipients, $10,000, for the 2013-2014 school year.
Umanzor, a nursing major, chose to pursue nursing mainly because of her older brother, Wilver. At only 17 years old, doctors diagnosed him with heart failure because of a viral infection in his heart. For five years he waited for a new heart on a donor list, and Umanzor and her sister became his nurses.
"He had to carry a HeartMate LVAD, which helped him go back to his regular activities, but he was not the same brother I used to share laughs with," she said. "At 25, I am grateful to say he's a strong man. In 2011, he not only received a new heart but a joyful spirit as well. His strong will and passion for life made me realize how thrilled I was to be able to experience these great emotions with someone I love."
Umanzor is a transfer student who earned her associate's degree from Houston Community College, graduating as an honors scholar. She is entering her junior year at UST, and the Nursing Program made her decision to transfer an easy one.
"I love how this Nursing Program is based on a construct of healing and holistic care," she said. "It is of great significance as a nursing student to comprehend patient care and how it is associated with the physical, emotional, social, economic and spiritual needs of the person."
As a student, Umanzor is taking full advantage of what the University offers. She writes for The Summa, the campus newspaper, is a representative on the Nursing Student Association Board and she regularly makes use of the University's Tutorial Services Center, where she attends workshops on research paper writing, stress management and organizational skills.
UST Alumni Association President Daniel Elustondo '99 said awarding scholarships to students like Umanzor is one of the most rewarding experiences while on the Alumni Board. "All of us who serve on the Board do so because we appreciate what the University did for us in our personal, spiritual and professional lives and want to give future students the chance to remain at the University, receive a great, well-rounded education and earn their degree. We enjoy giving back to the University and doing what we can to help the current student body succeed, as they are the future lawyers, doctors, nurses, teachers and professionals of our great city and country."
Elustondo said recipients are chosen based on multiple factors including why they chose UST, how UST has made them the person they are today, what they intend to do with their degree and how they plan on remaining involved and giving back to the UST community. Other scholarship recipients include:
Umanzor looks forward to the day she can give back to students as a member of the Alumni Association.
"I am happy to have been selected as one of the recipients, and I am very thankful," she said. "I can honestly say it would be of great pleasure to give back to the institution that has supported me."

Briana and Paul were married at the Calhoun Beach Club in Minneapolis, Minn. on May 24. The bride walked down the candlelit aisle wearing a sweetheart ruffled mermaid wedding gown, accessorized with drop pearl earrings, a cathedral veil, and gold glitter peep-toe pumps, while the groom stood patiently waiting wearing a black tuxedo, accessorized with white cufflinks. We love her peony bouquet! Programs included a pink chevron pattern, which was used throughout stationery, including the invitations and table numbers. Following the intimate ceremony, 75 guests enjoyed sipping on "cosmo-'paul'-itans" and "'bri'-linis" — the newlywed's signature drinks! Reception tables were decorated with ivory linens and rose and hydrangea centerpieces, and the cake featured two little birds on top. Who was the first person to cut-lose on the dance floor? Grandma!

Hi I just got polly scale colors from the states, 36 bottles 1/2 oz and 1 oz.
I took out a helmet I got on ebay a while back and painted the base colors on the right side and started to do it topical.
This is just a practice run before I get my MSH2. I traced the scratches and then painted them on.
What do you think, should I stay with the topical does it look like I could handle it.
As you can see the the left side is untouched with the same green color as I got it.

Hey folks-I am a bodyman at a hot rod shop in Arkansas, the H.A.C.K. Shack. I like to share pics of stuff I work on with my forum buds, and its been awhile since I posted something over here. Did a couple Impala Super Sports and shared those with the Chevy crowd. So here goes, I'm gonna share another project with you Car Craft'ers. Its a '71 or '72 GMC with a two-barrel small block. I only did the teardown and assembly on this job, and I've only pointed the lens at it a few times so far. Can't wait to see it all cleaned up in the end. This is around a ten grand job, done in about ten weeks. We split hairs every day on minty stuff, but this is an old truck basically just wanting a well done base/clear color change and a few key replacement parts. Follow along if you like, one day soon it will be all spiffed and gleaming. I think its gonna look wicked!I already had side marker lights out before I busted out the camera on 5/22/11-It was a peeler. They were thorough when they laid down the blue, but something didn't last and it flaked off. Plus it had the rear gas tank conversion done, and that part needed paint.End of the first day we had it shucked and sanded, a good launch-Heres the wheezy mill-Turns out the door shells were nasty rusted and the fenders were aftermarket but OK. We replaced the doors.Some of the paint blew off with an air hose, the rest of the loose stuff got scraped off with a razor blade then sanded-Heres that rear tank conversion, from underneath. Had to drop the tank twice to install bed bolts, it was a pain. The gas cap from the tank-in-the-cab days was glued to the old hole in the cab corner, so we welded that up and smoothed it. As for the underside of the truck, painting it wasn't part of this bargain. An undercoat job should do the trick though, if the owner desires later.Heres a better flash pic of the dash. It has a "P,R,N,Od,D,L2,L1", so maybe it has had a trans swap.Then the dust and sparks started flying. Rust repairs, more stripping, body filler, polyester primer, many steps occurred. Heres the bed in primer on 6/2/11:Fast forward to today, 7/1/11. Hood, cowl, glovebox door, etc, getting painted and me assembling the rest of the truck. I worked on it all this week. Heres some reality based coverage- of course the aftermarket doors didn't fit well, they both hit the drip rails. So theres a small paint issue there. Aside from the usual fresh hardware blues eating up some time, assembly went OK and I didn't slip and scratch anything yet. The grille and mirrors are kinda up in the air as to what we will actually install, so those aren't on the truck yet. Looking for just the right newer seat, too.I think a Roots blown 502 would make the stance just right- we can dream Heres my little list I keep, of things I have to skip past in order to keep the process going in the shop. I like the tape strips but I've seen a dry erase board used. These are just notes to myself about questions or issues I have as I go along, that will eventually be solved or addressed. This helps me know when I'm truly finished with the job.More reality- I took MOST of this truck apart, but not all. It cost me about a day finding fasteners and parts to build it to this point, but I had few problems with items I actually removed which was mostly the major sheetmetal. Bag and tag, people! Its a giant part of being able to "teamwork". Heres how specifically I mark my fasteners upon removal. It takes a little time on the front end but saves major time on the back end of the job. Easy to do. Well, I hope you like the picture story. I wish I had a truck just like this one, and I'll be sure to post more pics when its all finished!If you want to see another one of these trucks I was involved in recently, I did the paint and bodywork while somebody else did the assembly on the Chevy at this link: http://forums.chevyhiperformance.com/70/8181082/general-discussion/a-good-day-for-junk/index.htmlThanks for checkin' it out, y'all.
Fanatastic job as usual Matt.I had swivel buckets in my 67 and the tank was still in the cab. Just an idea. They'd work better if the guy isn't 6'4".+1 for bagging n' tagging...I use cleaned out plastic peanut butter jars, but I'm at home.
Very cool

Thanks, gents. Like I said, I want one just like it (well, almost). I'll be sure to show the shiny finished product but in the meantime I'm enjoying the facelift process, as always.
Looks great a job well done.
Professional hi-performance engine builderHorsepower sells Engines and torque wins races.
+ 1 on Well done for sure, really looks great.
Thanks! It might have the glass in and hood on by the end of tomorrow, I got the cowl fitted today, worked on the doors, and made a big list of little parts we need. Painted the hood hinges, replaced the rearview, installed the glovebox and door, etc. I have a hairy collision job to get started next, but theres also 46 Ford and 58 Chevy trucks nearing completion so we will be rolling out some shiny stuff soon, I'll post pics fo sho.
Well the GMC doesn't have glass mounted yet, but we got the new rear window seal, so soon. I installed the hood and cowl, but the cowl came back off so Ken could fix a defect in the finish. He also took care of the drip rails, where I clearanced for the door frames. I got the new glovebox lock and a bunch of rubber body bumpers installed. Built up one door but I'll have to go back in it because I have yet to mount mirrors. Gotta remember to get a pic of the door panel weather liners I made. I added a couple scraps of sound deadening to the doors as well. The customer's daughter's car broke down so the money stops here, and unfortunately his old grille and blue bench seat will be going back in. We ordered a black rubber complete floor mat but it was currently out of stock. The new sill plates are a huge improvement, though. I promise better pics once its clean and sharp, here it is with the cowl removed and a layer of sanding dust from across the shop. The lighting sucks, sorry:I'll attempt to redeem myself and post these colorful old truck pics, these are the ones I mentioned and theres even more. Hope you like old trucks in general, not just from the General:1959 Chevrolet Apache:1946 Ford:1951 Ford:
HEI cap, on a Ford motor?
I reckon so-http://www.speedwaymotors.com/Small-Block-Ford-289-302-HEI-Distributor,1692.htmlMore GMC pics, I got the old grille and mirrors on it today. I gotta straighten out that "C" a little!
Its going home tomorrow, so I'll get some "after" pics for sure. Yesterday I cut out the radio hole in the dash for a modern unit, at the customer's request. Ken finished up from there while I worked on other chit. But man I think it looks slick with all the glass in and doors together, even if the seat and belts are still blue. Its in good company waiting for final cleanup meanwhile. Check back to see the finished product and the "exciting conclusion" lol.
ALL FINISHED! Photos as promised.HACK Shack strikes again-Black as sin! Engine compartment:Interior: See? Modern radio.More pics from all around. Thanks for scoping it out, guys.
You do fantastic work idrive, i come back from time to time to check this out, Great job I had to tell you. Thanks for posting. Ahh, whats next?
Nice job ID.That seat looks like the same color I had in a elcamino I used to own I think they called it pearywinkle blue if I'm not mistaken.

How do those wood grips feel? We recently got a Blackwater in and it was the first Sig I actually handled that had wood grips. I hated them, it didn't "feel like a Sig" if that makes sense. Any better on the 226 elite?
Sweetest 226 I own!
How do those wood grips feel? We recently got a Blackwater in and it was the first Sig I actually handled that had wood grips. I hated them, it didn't "feel like a Sig" if that makes sense. Any better on the 226 elite?
That is one beautiful Hand Gun! I'm impressed! Never saw one with a beaver tail before... Interesting!
I had the P220, Ernest Langdon model that came with those beautiful Nill Walnut grips and it "do feel different"... Feels good though. one of the nicest feeling guns you could hold... Shooting with them was comfortable too... Big draw back I saw was, they are soft. I had a friend that shot mine with a ring on his finger and it marred the wood... Made every one remove their bling afterwards...
Now that's a good looking pistol. Them stocks help to set it off. How's she shoot for you Reliable? I sure would like to put a couple of mags through her.
Comparing this Elite to the Equinox, which has similar grips to the Blackwater, I like these grips better. Possibly the full stippling. They may be very similar dimentionally but they do feel more comfortable.
Unfortunatly it is my Christmas presesnt from my wife so I promised her I would not shoot it til after Christmas. Knowing and can't is actually harder then wondering what you will get.
Very nice looking gun. Waiting until Christmas will be tough, I am sure.
As soon as I shot my Blackwater, I went upstairs to the gun shop and had them put Hogue panels on it. Much better. My hands sweat and the Hogues did not slip.
That is one sharp looking P226! Very nice!
Aside from the grips and beaver tail, do you know how it differs from the stock shooting 226? I've read where the only difference is cosmetically and price of course.
Major differences include front strap checkering, front slide serrations, and last but not least, a new trigger lockwork giving it a very short reset. I compared the reset travel to my G27 and I would estimate that the trigger reset on the Elite is about 1/3 that of my Glock. Unbelievably short!!!!! It is not cosmetic, there are functional differences.

Handled a .40 cal at the gunstore today. Very nice. I think the price tag was @ $950.00. I really like Sig's. But they are a little high in the price department. I can't convince myself it would be any better than my reliable 229.
This thing looks great. Great beavertail, very nice wood grips, and checkering on front strap. For now I will keep my 9mm stainless 226.
I think that all 226s should have the beaver tail. It really enhances the looks

She has been active in the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and has received the Women Lawyers Association of Michigan's Distinguished Member of the Year Award.
She earned her law degree from Wayne State University in 1979 and her bachelor's degree from Carleton College in Minnesota in 1976.
Gleicher's investiture ceremony is scheduled to be held at Wayne State University Law School in the near future. For more information, please call the Dean's Office at (313) 577-3933.
Founded in 1927 as Detroit City Law School, Wayne State University Law School is the only public law school in the Detroit metropolitan area.

Thanks man. Nice to meet you. This is my first night on here and so far everyone seems friendly!!. Got to love those old revolvers.
Agree with you on that, really gotta love those old wheel guns.
G-Man, very nice snubby there. I picked up a blued, model 36 snubby a couple of months ago. They really are GREAT guns. I bought mine from the original owner who I know from my club. Enjoy that little sucker as much as I enjoy mine!!
Those classics are fantastic! It looks in excellent condition. Is it original issue, or is it the recent reissue?

FOX, CBS threaten to go subscription-based in lawsuit
Another television network has joined the broadcaster backlash following last week's court decision upholding Internet TV company Aereo's right to stream broadcast TV without paying retransmission fees.
Like rival Fox TV, CBS, the parent company of CNET, is considering alternative ways to monetize its television content in the face of Aereo's service, including cutting off broadcast signals in favor of a subscription-only model, The New York Times reported today. The revelation comes a day after Chase Carey, chief operations officer of News Corp., indicated that Fox would change its business model to ensure it gets paid for TV content it produces.
"We need the dual revenue stream model of retransmission fees and advertising to sustain our business," Carey said yesterday at National Association of Broadcasters' annual trade show in Las Vegas. "We will pursue our rights fully both legally and politically to protect our rights. But if we can't get our rights protected, we will pursue business solutions to take our network and turn it into a subscription service."

text: Philly is really playing well in this early abbreviated season, they're #1 in their division! And while they have no superstar they do have a deep and talented rotation, let's compare theirs to ours. PG: Holiday (Knight) / Williams (Stuckey) - Holiday DOES what we eventually want Knight to be able to do on a nightly basis. Holiday has better Ast numbers and shoots it at a better FG%. Now compare Williams to Stuckey. Williams is their "off the bench" combo guard and Stuckey is ours, Williams is scoring more a shooting a little better, Stuck is dishing it better. The nod goes to Philly in this dept, BARELY. SG: Meeks (Gordon) / Turner (Stuckey) - This dept shouldn't even be close, but it is. While Gordon is clearly the better starting SG, he doesn't fulfill his role as good as Meeks. Meeks is actually playing much more efficiently than Gordon. Turner is giving them 10.6 ppg, 6.2rpg and just under 3 apg OFF THE BENCH! SF: Igoudala (Tay) / Turner (Daye*) - Iggy is superior to Tay, period. Turner is superior to Daye, period. But, ideally Daye should be giving us the type of off the bench production that Turner gives Philly, but unfortunately he isn't. PF: Brand (Ben) / Young (JJ) - Brand is better than Ben, but they play 2 different roles, but Brand wouldn't be a bad partner for GM upfront. JJ Vs Young, this is close, they play almost exactly alike, but Young is clearly the more talented, more athletic player, but JJ closes the gap with his heart and hustle; but Young is a great hustle guy too! But remember Young was a lottery pick and makes twice what JJ makes. Good job by Joe to get a guy like JJ in the 2nd rd. C: Hawes (Monroe) / Vucevic (Max) - Monroe beats Hawes by a mile, but Hawes is extremely productive and does what his team needs him to do and he has REAL help upfront. Vucevic is a legit backup center with size, Max shouldn't even be in an NBA rotation. Overall, I think our starters can be better than Philly's if we upgrade Tayshaun Prince. The issue is the bench, they bring Lou Williams, Evan Turner and Thaddeus Young off the Bench. Ideally we SHOULD have the edge here; Stuckey, Daye, JJ, and CV; but Daye has been pathetic, CV hasn't even played and when he does play........pathetic, Stuckey has been.....eh, JJ is decent. In summation, I think if we can put it all together, there's no reason why we shouldn't be as good or even better than Philly........once we get Anthony Davis and Wilson Chandler.

Wall Street Journal Manufactures Division To Justify Previous GOP Support For Health Care Mandate
In today's Wall Street Journal, columnist Holman Jenkins engaged [1] in an impressive about-face in a piece attacking the "individual mandate" provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA). After introducing the subject by claiming "Only fools and angels ... might tread forth to defend a now-embarrassing history of conservative support for the unpopular mandate," he tried to defend the history of conservative support for the individual responsibility provision by attempting to point out how it does not and never did resemble the one passed in the PPACA. His explanation is that, while the conservative model was meant to address the free-rider problem in health care, the Obama model is merely "a tax to pay for someone else's" health care costs.
The free-rider problem in health care is an issue pertaining to people taking advantage of beneficial rules when they need health care, but not paying into the system when they don't. Although free-rider problems abound in economics, in health care policy it usually manifests in one of two ways. The first case has to do with uninsured people using emergency rooms as primary-care facilities, knowing that if they are unable to pay the state will generally compensate the hospital for the care. The second issue occurs when health insurance is made affordable and accessible, which the PPACA will do. Without a requirement to purchase insurance, people can wait until they need care, then enroll in a health insurance plan which will cover the cost.
According to Jenkins, only the individual responsibility provisions previously promoted by conservatives such as GOP presidential candidate Newt Gingrich attempt to address the free-rider problem, but if you "look closely," you can tell that the PPACA's individual responsibility provision is "partly about forcing the young, healthy and otherwise uninclined to overpay for health insurance so the money can be used to pay for heavy users of the health-care system." Jenkins doesn't provide any evidence for these claims, other than asking readers to "look closely" at the PPACA provision.
But you don't need to look closely to find evidence that Obama specifically meant for the individual responsibility provision to address the free-rider problem. In remarks delivered to a town hall on August 15, 2011, Obama made the case [2] for the individual responsibility provision by explicitly referencing the free-rider issue, noting that without the provision people would have an incentive to game the system:
They would wait until they get sick and then you'd buy health insurance, right? No point in you -- I mean, it's just like your car insurance. If you could buy -- if the car insurance companies had to give you insurance, you'd just wait until you had an accident and then you'd be dialing on the phone from the wreck, and you'd say, "State Farm, I'd like to buy some car insurance please." (Laughter.)
Obama further explained:
[T]he basic theory is, look, everybody here at some point or another is going to need medical care, and you can't be a free-rider on everybody else -- you can't not have health insurance, then go to the emergency room and each of us who've done the responsible thing and have health insurance, suddenly we now have to pay the premiums for you. That's not fair. (Applause.) So if you can afford it, you should get health insurance just like you get car insurance.
By comparison, here is Gingrich's 2009 explanation [3] of the health care mandate, in which he points out that the individual mandate is meant to address the free-rider problem, but which Jenkins finds to be different from Obama's somehow:
The real foundation, the most important part of this, is individual rights, responsibilities, and expectations of behavior. ... We believe that there should be must-carry, that everybody should have health insurance, or if you're an absolute libertarian, we would allow you to post a bond, but we would not allow people to be "free riders" failing to insure themselves and then showing up in the emergency room with no means of payment. If you have must carry, then the insurance companies have told us that we can have must-issue, and you will therefore have a system in which you don't have to worry about cherry-picking and maneuvering. ... This is the kind of general model we will be advocating.

You can write about near anything PK related, if it's got something to do with PKing and you consider yourself knowledgeable about it- write it up for the benefit of others. If you wish to submit anything to this topic, that's great, but please try to follow these tips:
- Use good grammar and vocabulary. Being poor in this department displays both you AND your guide as worth a lot less.
- Do not plagiarise existing work.
- Your guide doesn't need to be extremely long, a guide may only need to take 5 or 10 minuets to read.
- Make your guide as informative as possible.
- Try to avoid writing a guide on something we already have-- UNLESS, you can add much more information than the previous.
- Use pictures! They are a lot better to look at than huge walls of text.
- Have fun, write about something you are EXPERIENCED with, something you know well.
- Have a poke around the Guides section of RSC for some useful information on guides.

MADISON, Wis. - Lianne Farber continues her stellar season as the lead runner for the Carolina women's cross country team, placing 17th at the elite Wisconsin adidas Invitational on Friday in a 6K personal record 20:05. Ryan Walling ran strong on the men's side, leading the Tar Heels with an 8K PR of 24:00 to place 44th in the team competition.
Farber kept pace with the chasing pack to score for the Carolina women, who placed 28th at a meet bursting with the nation's best runners and collegiate teams.
All six members of the women's squad recorded new personal bests in the 6K. Ashley Miess held down the two-spot for the Tar Heels, placing 118th in 20:54. Annie LeHardy smashed her previous best in the 6K, racing 21:08 to place 159th. Sami Jorgensen placed 187th in 21:19, Karley Rempel at 226th in 21:33 and Malia Cali in 21:41 to place 242nd. The women's field consisted of 48 teams and 327 runners.
On the men's side, Ryan Walling showed guts and perseverance with his 44th-place finish for the team score breaking his personal best in the 8K by nearly a minute. The Tar Heel men placed 29th out of 45 teams.
Jack Driggs was next up for the Tar Heels with a time of 24:18 to finish 105th. Steve Magnuson and Scott Morgan both clocked in at 24:34 taking 166th and 167th, respectively. Patrick Schellberg ran his 8K in 24:40 to place 193rd and Mark Derrick placed 245th in 25:09. Isaac Presson was unable to finish the race though still putting in a strong showing through the first 5K.
No. 5 Iowa State took the women's team race top spot followed by a slue of ranked schools to complete the top 20 finishes of the 48 women's teams in attendance. The men's side was more lop-sided for the team scoring with seven unranked schools placing in the top-20 pushing No. 1 Wisconsin to a disappointing 17th in their home competition. No. 8 Stanford won the men's side.
Running in the Men's 8K Open Race were John Raneri (25:33), Braedon Koerwitz (25:38), and Dan Mykityshyn (25:58).
The Tar Heels will next compete at the ACC Championships in Blacksburg, Va., on October 27th. More information about the conference championship can be found at the ACC Championships Central page by clicking here.

Iowa Lakes' Men's Golf Brandon Klein wrapped up his National Tournament Friday afternoon. Klein fired an 81 to finish the tournament at 310 (22 over par). His rounds were 75-78-76-81. Klein is the 20th male golfer to qualify for the National Tournament for Iowa Lakes since 1997.
"It's been a privilege to watch Brandon play and compete as a Laker. It was good to see him go out on top as a National Qualifier. He's going to be very successful in the future as he continues his studies at South Dakota State University. I wish him and the rest of the players best of luck in their lives. They will always be Lakers." -- Coach Soper


text: UPDATED 09:44 30th September 2016 Home shirt sponsored by Geoffrey Snow Away shirt sponsored by William & Georgia Lockett REGARDED by many as the finest young goalkeeper in the game, Jack Butland will be eager to re-establish himself as Potters number one this season. The stopper, who became England's youngest ever senior stopper against Italy at the age of 19 in 2012, enjoyed a stunning maiden top-flight campaign for the Potters in 2015/16. Having served his apprenticeship, and enjoyed loan spells with Birmingham City, Barnsley, Leeds United and Derby County, Mark Hughes handed him the number one jersey following Asmir Begovic's departure in the summer of 2015. He repaid his manager's faith in him by producing a quite stunning start to life in the Premier league, before seeing his campaign abruptly ended in March by injury. It was a heart-breaking blow for the talented 23-year-old, who looked a shoehorn in Roy Hodson's England squad for Euro 2016, with many even tipping him to jostle the Three Lions starting spot from Joe Hart.

text: Well Greg Monroe wasn't supposed to be there, he fell, and now he's a Piston instead of John Henson, Eric Davis or Upke Udoh!!!! Andre Drummond wasn't supposed to be there, he fell, and now he's a Piston too!!!!! So who falls in this year's draft? The boards essentially say this: 1. Noel 2. McClemore 3. Porter 4. Len 5. Oladipo 6. Bennett 7. Burke 8. HERE WE ARE! If all goes according to the popular trains of thought (mock drafts on the internet) we should end up with CJ McCollum, but what if like in prior years someone falls again? Any guesses on who? And who would you definitely pick over McCollum if someone falls the way Moose and Dre did.

Home > News & Events > News > Press Releases > Former National Security Advisor Tom Donilon Joins Harvard Kennedy School's Belfer Center as Senior Fellow
Cambridge, MA – Tom Donilon, National Security Advisor to President Obama from 2010 until last month, is joining Harvard Kennedy School's Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs as a non-resident Senior Fellow.
Belfer Center Director Graham Allison said Donilon would bring to the Kennedy School a wealth of experience in national security strategy and foreign policy issues. Allison said, "Tom has been at the center of every major national security decision in the Obama administration from the surge and then drawdown in Afghanistan to the rebalance toward Asia and elimination of Osama bin Laden. For Harvard faculty, fellows, and students, he will be a great colleague and instructor. He will also be an asset across the agenda of the Belfer Center from Iran and North Korea to international initiatives to address challenges of energy and the environment."
Donilon, whose responsibilities as National Security Advisor included overseeing the National Security Council staff and chairing the Cabinet-level National Security Principals Committee, provided the President's daily national security briefing and was responsible for the coordination and integration of the administration's foreign policy, intelligence, and military efforts.
In his June announcement of Donilon's departure, President Obama said, "Tom is that rare combination of the strategic and the tactical. He has a strategic sense of where we need to go, and he has a tactical sense of how to get there." Donilon, he said, helped shape all of his national security policies – "from forging a new national security strategy rooted in our economic strength here at home to ending the war in Iraq." Also, Obama noted, "Tom oversaw the operation that led us to bin Laden." He added, "I'm especially appreciative to Tom for helping us renew American leadership in the Asia Pacific, where so much of our future security and prosperity will be shaped."
Prior to his appointment as National Security Advisor, Donilon served as Assistant to the President and Principal Deputy National Security Advisor. In that role, he was responsible for managing the U.S. government's national security policy development and crisis management process. He has worked closely with and advised three U.S. presidents beginning in 1977 with President Carter. During the Clinton administration, he served as Assistant Secretary of State and Chief of Staff at the U.S. Department of State. In that capacity, he was responsible for the development and implementation of the Department's major policy initiatives, including the NATO expansion, the Dayton Peace Accords, and the Middle East Peace process. Before his government service, Donilon was a partner at the international law firm O'Melveny & Myers.
Donilon has received the Secretary of State's Distinguished Service Award, the National Intelligence Distinguished Public Service Medal, the Department of Defense Medal for Distinguished Public Service, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Joint Distinguished Civilian Service Award, and the CIA's Director's Award.
Donilon received his undergraduate degree from Catholic University and his law degree from the University of Virginia.

Key Facts
2010 Report Summary (pdf)
2010 Full Report Data (7MB pdf)
- Multnomah County has lost 26,463 private-sector jobs since 1997. It ranks second to the bottom in job creation among 199 counties in the west* over the last decade.
- Portland-metro residents have lower wages and incomes than residents of peer regions. Because Oregon is an income-tax dependent state this means fewer resources for schools, law enforcement and other important public services.
- Forty years ago Portland-metro wages and incomes looked more like our peer regions, but since then our peers have steadily outperformed the region's economy. Today, our average incomes are 16 to 21 percent lower than those of our peers.
- In the 1990s, the growing gap between Portland-metro's economic fortunes and its peers widened significantly. Private-sector job growth stalled after 1997 and has declined since 2000. Meanwhile, our peer regions have been more resilient, replacing jobs and wages lost in the late 1990s' recession with new firms and industries, especially knowledge-based industries like software and professional services.
- The Portland-metro area does not notably out-perform our peers on "compensating" characteristics such as cost of living or quality of life. Our peers are achieving high quality of life AND higher wages and incomes.
- The region has characteristics that bode well for future economic growth such as a relatively low cost of living compared to other west coast cities; strategic position on the Pacific Rim; transportation infrastructure; a strong entrepreneurial and small business climate, and a healthy international trade sector. But those characteristics alone do not constitute a successful economic strategy.
