|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Thanks to all who came to my aid. I was at my wit's end. 409 Bug was right. It was the timing set. I had a CompCams timing chain/gear with the 3-keyway crank sprocket. The 3 keyways where not marked, and I installed it in what I thought was the straight-up position. WRONG. I orderded another gear set from Cloyes (these keyways were marked), installed it today, and now the enging turns just perfectly. What a relief! Thanks again. I really appreciate you sharing your insights to possible fixes.
|I think that you have very serious issues if you are hitting the cam on a small cam like the 262h. I would make sure you have the correct cam, rods, block, crank etc. If this is all correct then I would try to find out if the block has had the mains align bored. If there has been a lot of damage to the main caps or the main caps had been replaced with the wrong aftermarket pieces then they may have been bored excessively. This would move the crank closer to the cam. Was there excessive slack or play in a new timing chain? This would indicate the same problem.
|Are these the stock chevy rods or aftermarket rods? I would have used aftermarket stroker rods because they give extra clearance.
|406 bug
Do you have your timing chain on with crank indexed to cam?? Reason I ask is many times if you just rotate the cam to "check' you will have interference.
As for small Base cams, comp cams offers on many grinds with little or no extra cost. I run a 6" rod in my 406 with a small base from comp Cams.
|Im running a similar combo but with a comp 292 roller and i had the same problem but it was the rod BOLTS that were hitting most likely the same issue you are having i had to tear it back apart and clearance I BELIEVE 1-3-5-7 rod bolts and you need to have .030 clearence and it is a pita to check but should be done
The 5.7" rod is a bit taller at the bolt head than a stock 400 5.565" rod is, with a longer bolt, and frequently has the problem you describe. If the edge of the rod near the bolt head and the edge of the bolt head won't clear the cam you have you can grind it for clearance, cutting that edge of the rod away along with a slight amount from the bolt head. If this has been done and you still don't have enough clearance you then have two choices.
One is to use stroker clearanced capscew bolt type rods that use a capscrew instead of a bolt and nut, the body of the rod is threaded for the bolt(Scat, Eagle, etc I-beam or H-beam), since there is no bolt head in the way on these types they can be clearanced farther.
The other option is the reduced base circle camshaft, which basically means the whole lobe is just proportioned smaller. The heel(or no lift portion) of the lobe is ground on a smaller radius, allowing the whole lobe to be smaller but still provide the same lift and duration profile. this makes the lobe clear the rod bolt head area of the rod. Many common cam grinds are available as a reduced base circle already on the shelf, some others need to be custom ground, but every cam manufacturer offers them, you just have to know enough to ask for one. They are available in every cam type, flat tappet, hydro roller, and solid roller
If you search "383 stroker" builds here I'm sure you will find plenty of pictures, this question comes up fairly often. Info will be the same for you because you are working with the same 3.75" stroke crank into an SBC using 5.7" rods.
Connecting Rod Cap Hitting Cam
I'm building a 406 SBC with 5.7" 350 rods and Comp Cams XE262H-10 hydraulic flat-tappet cam. The rods were purchase as part of a Strong Arm 406 kit from Speed-O-Motive, with the edges of the rod bolt caps ground for additional clearance. I have ample clearance with the blocks's oil pan rail, but am not clearing the cam. Ive read in several magazines and tech forums of others successfully building the 406 SBC, so what am I missing? Is there someone out there whos actually built this engine for use on the streets and overcome this obstacle? I've read that using a small base circle cam will solve this interference problem, but what exactly is a small base circle? Are they readily available, or are they custom ground? What are the cam's dimensions/specifications ? Is a small base circle cam available as a hydraulic flat tappet or only as a roller? Is it the proven solution? Any examples of small base circle cams with specs similar to the XE262H? Sorry for so many questions but I'm lost and losing faith. Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi, you're my only hope!

Hi, my name's Paul Eddleston and I finally got round to introducung myself to this group. I recently took delivery of a beautiful 85 quattro that was previously owned by an Audi friend. I thoiught I'd start a journal-like thread about it and post some pictures
[Edit] SORRY some of the early pictures have been moved so the links are broken but go to the latest pages for current pictures and activity.
I know a few members on this forum already but some of you may know me from by business venture: Team Illuminata Motorsport, also known as TIM but not to be confused with the URQ owner Tim in the UP of Michigan. http://www.teamilluminata.com/
I grew up in England watching Rallying on TV but really got into the sport around the time the Group B monsters were arriving so you can imagine why I'm here now and why I'm so excited to finally have my quattro. I race a Subaru in RallyCross and autocross and do some track days too and I also crew at rallies for various teams if I'm not in the vendor area flogging our products.
Hope to see you and your cars at some events soon.
So here is what I know about the car:
"One of the best examples of the classic ur quattro available. Very rare Canadian car. Original Tornado Red paint with black leather interior. 1 of only 17 quattros imported to Canada in 1985! Desirable and rare non-sunroof version. 167,000 KM. Clear Michigan title. Retains original metric instruments - I did not convert anything when I imported this car to the USA.
Over the course of the past 3 years, this car has been totally sorted out by Phil at Auto Europe in Birmingham. Phil was an Audi mechanic back when these cars were brand new. I basically gave him permission to check and correct anything that needed attention. The car was great when I bought it, but it's even better now! New hard fuel lines, clutch and slave cylinders, hydraulic bomb, alternator, starter, water pump, timing belt. tires, battery, master cylinder, rear differential bushing, center driveshaft bearing, etc., etc. The car has a modified head and a modified ECU to allow use of the Euro wastegate spring. A joy to drive. This must be what it was like to drive one of these cars brand new. No rattles or squeaks. Strong performer."
Certainly couldn't take issue with any of that and I've known Curt for a few years as a customer at my shop and when I worked at Auto Europe. I was just starting to think about buying a classic when this showed up. I thought I might import an Opel Manta from Europe. That's the car I had when I moved to the US around 20 years ago. I thought it was time to get one back. But then I saw this and it was obvious this was the car I should have. I grew up watching Group B rally in the forests in England and the quattro has always been my favorite Group B monster. Just the noise alone is enough to get my heart racing. Indeed, as I like to tell people, this car is why I now own a motorsports business and race RallyCross, autocross etc. Plus, it would be good that the car stay in Michigan where Curt could keep an eye on it.
Ive had the car here for a couple of weeks now and driven it a couple of times. My goals for the car are to keep it in its original condition while fixing some of its issues and not-quite-original features. My list is already long but does not reflect the condition of the car but my mental condition of list making and nit-picking. Here are the highlights of what needs attention IMHO:
Restore leather seats
Hot starting issues
Small dent in hood
Should it have Center console?
How much clutch is left?
Oil change
Passenger door lock inoperative
Drivers window seal loose
Handbrake boot fits poorly
Fuel leak smell
Passenger window sticks at 2 drop
Pass seat adjuster loose
Vent broken center
Passenger door pocket coming away
Rear diff damp-reseal
Right rear wheel creaks
Wipers slow
Gearbox play, mounts?
Rust spots, leading edge of hood, and fender in engine bay
Wrong headlights
Door bars missing
A/C removed engine bay, replace
Trunk carpet screws missing
Engine under tray missing right side
Radio too new and blingy
Upper front strut mounts loose
Rear brake lines rusty
Front ball joints
Lower control arm bushings iffy
Left front cv boot getting brittle
Volts-volt and oil temp meters behave oddly
Door carpet coming away
Non-original steering wheel
Trunk strut inoperative.
Key fob light
Exhaust crooked
Jack missing
Speaker cover loose
Non-original speakers
I might need help with some of these. Prepare yourselves for many questions. Obviously some of these are urgent and necessary, others trivial nit-picking but you cant beat having a list. Im sure it will grow rather than shrink even if I do check some off.
I still find it immensely ironic that, considering that Im so into rally, have a rally related business and love to drive sideways that I bought a car that I can neither drive in the snow or on the loose. I guess Ill have to limit my fun to wet roundabouts, the three or four that exist in SE Michigan. I may do the odd autocross in it or maybe a track day. Do they have track days for classics? I already took it round Waterford Hills track at the recent track day but only during the parade laps at lunchtime. Twas quite fun. Probably, this is what Ill do most with the car. Just take it to local motorsport events and shows so people can enjoy seeing it. I am going to slap some BRAID wheels on it and a discreet windshield banner in white BRAIDUSA.com though as it has to earn its keep somehow.
These are the wheels that are on a boat in the Atlantic right now. What do you think?
I chose them because they are very reminiscent of the works wheels used on the S1, at least in my opinion. I ordered them in the same specs as the originals. Ill use the Kumho 225/50-15 tires that came on the OE Ronals. Curt also gave me a set of BFG 215/50-15 which was the OE size but Im not sure what to do with those yet.
Hopefully Ill remember to update this page with news of the car's development and outings. Meanwhile, if you have any questions or suggestions let me know. Im all ears, as some of you already know.

Ski-racing traditions run deep on NH mountains
KATHLEEN BAGLIO HUMPHREYS | April 03. 2014 10:33PM
During the 1920s and 1930s, ski races were held on trails cut by the Civilian Conservation Corps. The first trail in New Hampshire was cut on Cannon Mountain in 1933 and named the Richard Taft Trail. Franconia Ski Club was founded by Roland Peabody to provide ski recreation and training for local schoolchildren. Neighboring Peckett's Hill is known for its early ski training.
Most of New Hampshire's ski clubs are weekend programs, with the exception of Waterville Valley, which is the only ski academy in the state. Cannon and Gunstock just introduced winter term programs.
"We have prep schools which now have extremely strong ski teams, but it was not always that way. Holderness has a strong program and Proctor is now strong," Marshall said. Back in the 1980s and 1990s, coaches were building high school programs at Kimball Union Academy, which trains at Whaleback, and Ford Sayer Academy, which trains at Dartmouth Skiway. The Cardigan Mountain School goes up to 9th grade.
"Dartmouth, UNH, Colby-Sawyer and Plymouth all play into the history of skiing in New Hampshire," Marshall said.
NHARA has 725 registered ski racers. They host an average of 125-150 racers per season, from non-scored races for the younger athletes to scored events for the older athletes.
"Cannon is a great hill and has so much to offer in terms of terrain, trails, the woods and glades, plus Mittersill, which is fantastic for the kids," he said. "I watch the U8s (Under 8 skiers) whipping down Avalanche and I think, 'What are they going to be doing in 10 to 12 years?' What a place to grow up."
"I like ski racing because I love the feeling of going fast," he said. "I also love being outside all weekend practicing and racing with my coaches and friends. The best part of ski racing is race day. When I get in the gate, I feel I need to crush that run."

Inhofe's last stand
Part of me felt a little nostalgic yesterday watching the last Senate hearing on climate change that will be chaired by Sen. James Inhofe. It all felt very familiar and comforting in some strange way. There was the well-spoken 'expert' flown in from Australia (no-one available a little closer to home?), the media 'expert' from the think tank (plenty of those about) and a rather out-of-place geologist. There were the same talking points (CO2 leads the warming during the ice ages! the Medieval Warm Period was warm! it's all a hoax!*) that are always brought up. These easy certainties and predictable responses are so well worn that they feel like a pair of old slippers.
Of course, my bout of nostalgia has nothing to do with whether this was a useful thing for the Senate to be doing (it wasn't), and whether it just provided distracting political theatre (yup) in lieu of serious discussion about effective policy response, but even we should sometimes admit that it is easier to debunk this kind of schoolyard rhetoric than it is to deal with the complexities that actually matter. The supposed subject of discussion was 'Climate Change in the Media' though no-one thought to question why the Senate was so concerned with the media representations (Andy Revkin makes some good points about it though here). Senators have much more effective means of getting relevant information (knowledgable staffers, National Academy of Science reports, the presidential office of Science and Technology etc.) and so this concern was concievably related to their concern with public understanding of science….. or not.
Naomi Oreskes did a good job on the context and provided useful rebuttal to a frankly ridiculous claim that contrarians were not getting any air time on the networks. One point she could have raised was that when Patrick Michaels made the same complaint to CNN – that their climate news stories weren't 'balanced' – a quick scan of their interviewee lists revealed that the scientist most frequently on CNN …. was none other than Michaels himself. A result somewhat at odds with his standing in the community or expertise, but ample evidence for the 'false balance' often decried here.
As for the scientific content, with the sole exception of Dan Schrag's statements, it was a textbook example of abuse of science. Two exchanges summed it up for me. In the first, Bob Carter insisted that CO2 always follows temperature for the ice age cycles (which are paced by the variations in the Earth's orbit and for which CO2 is a necessary feedback) and seasonal cycle (related mainly to Northern hemisphere deciduous trees) . Both statements are true as far as they go – but they don't go very far. Was Carter suggesting that the 30% increase in CO2 decreased after 1940? or that it has stopped increasing in recent years (since he appears to also believe that global warming stopped in 1998?). As an aside by his criteria it also stopped in 1973, 1983 and 1990…. only it didn't. Of course, if this wasn't what he meant to imply (because it's demonstrably false), why did he bring the whole subject up at all? Surely not simply to muddy the waters….

Arsenal Football Club can confirm that Oguzhan Ozyakup has completed a move to Turkish side Besiktas for an undisclosed fee.
The 19-year-old midfielder represented the Gunners twice at senior level, making substitute appearances in the Carling Cup victories over Shrewsbury Town and Bolton Wanderers last season.
Ozyakup, who joined the Gunners from AZ Alkmaar in September 2008, helped the Under-18s to a league and cup double in his first season before going on to play a key role in a second FA Premier Academy League title the following year.
He later became a mainstay of the reserves, for whom he played 41 times in total and scored six times.
Ozyakup made the decision to represent Turkey at international level this year, but as a youth player captained the Netherlands Under-16 side and helped the Under-17s to a European Cup Final in 2009.
Everyone at Arsenal would like to thank Oguzhan for his contribution to the Club and wish him well for his future career.Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

O.K. Your gun is chambered for the .455 Eley, or .455 Mk. VI cartridge, not the .45 Colt cartridge. The .455 British cartridge is much shorter than the American .45 Colt round. All of the markings indicate that it was a revolver purchased by England during World War I. The marks you show are all British acceptance marks or approval by different agencies. There is, or was, a book telling the full story of British proof marks.
I don't know where you live, but .455 caliber cartridges, usually found under the name .455 Webley, are very hard to find, usually available only through specialty dealers.
I once had such a New Service that had been issued to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, also in .455 Eley caliber. However, my gun had been reworked to accept .45 Colt cartridges, a fairly simple conversion. There is a slight difference in bore diameters, but not enough to make any practical difference.
As to value as is, probably closer to the $400~$600 range at the very least.
Hope this helps.
Bob Wright
P.S. .45 Colt is the actual designation of a specific cartridge, and there are several, not all interchangable. The brand name would be Remington, Winchester, Federal, or something like that. As to .45 cartridges, the more readily available are .45 Colt, .45 ACP (.45 Automatic), or in some cases .45 Smith & Wesson. The .45 S&W is also called the .45 Schofield now by Cowboy Action Shooters. They are not interchangable.

Konerko, Owens rest nagging injuries
Konerko, Owens rest nagging injuries
TUCSON, Ariz. -- Paul Konerko and Jerry Owens didn't get into the lineup Wednesday because both were nursing injuries. Konerko had been scheduled to DH against the Rockies, but a sore toe forced manager Ozzie Guillen to sit Konerko. Josh Fields filled in as DH.
Guillen sat Owens, who played Tuesday in Surprise, Ariz., because of lingering soreness in his groin. Guillen said the move was a precaution more than anything else. "I'm not worried about it but concerned," Guillen said of Owens' injury. "You give him a couple days to recover and the next day he couldn't be in the lineup. It's something I don't want to deal with during the season. "We have plenty of time. We have two or three weeks to get that thing set." Guillen said he's mindful of what an injury like that did to Scott Podsednik last season. The speedy Podsednik, one of the stars of the 2005 World Series team, jumped in and out of the White Sox lineup with nagging injuries. Guillen doesn't want Owens to go through the same thing. "I'd rather miss him for a couple of days up here than miss him in the season," Guillen said of Owens. Owens and Konerko, who's been hitting well in Cactus League play (.406 with 13 hits in 32 at-bats, one homer and seven RBIs), will get an extra day to rest their injuries. Thursday is the lone day off in the Cactus League schedule for the White Sox.

How about working with hexagon geometry? I'm sure someone's tried it.
I wonder if any TBH builder consider the Golden Mean or the mathematical constant Phi to calculate your hive shape?
I'm thinking it is a purely coincidental that my warre hive produced 1.6x more honey than the Langstroth next to it :evil:
Do you use removable frames in your Warre?
robo, i'm curious if in general you find hives next to one another produce the same ammount?

Hey y'all! I'm new to the forum, I thought you guys might be interested in reading an article I wrote about the Colt 1911
I'm doing an entire series of articles on famous firearms. I plan on writing about the Beretta M9, the Glock 19, and the Smith& Wesson model 60 revolver for sure. Do you guys have any suggestions of handguns you'd like to see featured in an article? Could also be rifles or shotguns.
Glad to be a member of your fine forum. I'm currently saving up to buy my first handgun, probably a Glock 23 .40 cal.

Hey all,
Ever since I saw the design for Bo Katan as well as the other Night Owl Death Watch girls, I made up my mind that I WANT TO COSPLAY THIS.
With AMAZING support from the Mandalorian costume community, I must say, you guys are really SO PASSIONATE in making all this AWESOME stuff to make people's costume dreams come true
I chose not to do Bo Katan cause I feel I'm not worthy to be her either lol and chose to be a regular DW Night Owl grunt.
So I ordered a bunch of stuff in the mail from truly AMAZING people in the community. photos below
First came the helmet. Made by Falin Skirata. Excellent stuff, expertly done. I have to cut out the visor hole and insert a black visor cuz I can't see nothing out of it currently. Will also have to put a head cushion in it so its comfortable to wear and probably fans so I don't collapse from lack of air.
Gauntlets came next. Made by Jaiden Turr'n Verda. I gotta do some trimming and trick out the small parts so that it looks good. I'll have to study the male Death Watch guys for the gauntlet ref. They have like a blade bit, a gun bit and an electric lasso thing
Yesterday I received this AMAZING jetpack. Bought from Man Of War Studios on Ebay. It is HEAVY. It's basically the Jango Fett arena backpack cause it pretty much looks the same as the ones the DW guys wear. You know, same time period sorta.
I will definitely have to use some sort of strap rig to attach it to myself. Initially I thought 'oh industrial velco will be ok' At how heavy this thing is, that won't stay.
And this morning, in the mail, came my lovely Death Watch blasters made by Wood Chuck. Love em. Beautiful craftmanship and you feel awesome when you hold them. I had to contact Singapore customs if this was ok to bring in and they were totally cool with it because its made of wood, doesn't look like a real gun and it doesn't fire anything. Went through safely and got it all bubble wrapped and untouched.
I'm awaiting a bolo belt and the compartment belt to arrive soon. In the mean time, will have to look for a pair of boots, get like the long sleeve turtleneck, pants and some gloves. Also will have to get a shirt to wear on top of the turtle neck. Man, crazy! Designs attached. Am waiting for someone to develop the armor pieces for the chest, torso and legs.
Keep you guys posted in any updates...
Man, I really gotta figure out how to put all this stuff together.

What is the charge ($) for a reamer cut in a barrel that I send to you? Muttman
PM ME WE WILL WORK SOME THING OUT. I dont know if it has a removable pilot or not I won it on a auction site so untill I have it in my hands I dont know what its like. Im researching if I can use 357 mag barrels or not right now.
This round would work great with cast lead bullets especialy for cheap plinking and there are a ton of them out there in 9mm 38 an 357. Ivf you think about it once you pay for the brass the only cost differance over shooting this and a 38 special is the powder cost.
one of my CFS barreless kits will be a 358 Win with factory barrel attachments and profile it will make a great brush gun.
it appears that the rifle bullets for this round are all .358 that is the same as a a lot of the pistol bullets for a 38specal or 357 mag. many of the pistol bullets are also listed as .357 Im sure they would work fine in a 358win rifle.
I need to research dies and avalaible factrory brass as well as find a good blank Untill I know what my reamer pilot is I cant really by a blank for the barrel.
Im kicking around a pump action AK that will shoot super light loads just as a plinker also for my kid.
of course the same thing cpuld be done with a .30 cal but this would be more fun an cool LOL.
Brass can be easily made from 308, no worries there. I had a Winchester M88 years ago. Wish I had it back. Using 158 gr cast bullets and Unique powder I made up Squibb loads at 800 fps that were almost silent. Id try Trail Boss today. What receiver and magazine will you be using?
Ill be using a home made reciver made from 4130 flat so there is no demples in it an likely a g3 mag like on my 243 build that Im working on today. In fact I might just make a barrel assemply and use the 243 reciver as it is a screw build. buy the time you cut the rail out to move the ejector back and then mod themag well and center suport its better to just build from a flat then mod a 100% reciver however it can be done.Quote:

Hey 1BG,
GPC has new Winchester 356 (358 w/rim) for a whopping $53.70. They list 2 part# 705100 and 705090 one is an XTR?
Barrel, .356 Win, 20'', Round - New, Factory Orig, Blue. Dovetail Front & Rear
HTH, willie
Could ya use dat reamer wit a larger pilot on a 375?
thanks for the link. I dont know if a floating reamer or not it should be here in a few days Im sure it could have abushing addded. I was thinking about a bigger bore also and being able to use the reamer with a seperate N&T reamer. a 375-308 would be slick and one hell of a brush gun or close range socom special of some sort if that your thing. Im reading that the 358 win kicks like hell BTW worse than a 30-06 so this ought to be a factot in my stock and barrel attachment decisions. maybe a magna port type set up.
Im going to try to make a tool that will will work in a drill press to rebate rims Im thinking about a keyless chuck with a mandrell to suppoert the neck and a springloaded live center to fit into the primer pocket with a arm some thing to hold a lathe bit cut to machine the rim down and also cut the grove in one pass.Im looking for a cheap keyless chuck that is hled on with a screw in the center that can be replace with a arbor that protects the neck from colapsing when it is chucked in. I really like the idea of being able to rebate brass fast then on my AKs standard loads will not chamber and I cant have a accident. with a rebated rim to fit a standard AK I could call the whole series of round a wildcat. like a 22-250 AKR (AK rebated) 243 AKR , 260 AKR and so on a 375 AKR would have a nice ring to it. :) i also would nothave to modify the bolts either.
I have 6 5.45x39 bolts to play with that have the longer lugs Im going to use them with a yugo bulged trunion if possable . IMOO this will yeild the strongest two lug AK possable made from factory avaiable parts. Ill likely open up the bolt face to at least the size of a 7.62x39. one or two bolts aare going to convert the CFS kits into 223 brass based rifles possably 17-223 or 204 ruger. maybe a 6mm ar turbo although I can doe everything with a plane old down loaded 243 WIN cheaper.

By Chris Harris
Arsenal fans have been enjoying the state-of-the-art facilities at Emirates Stadium since its doors opened for Dennis Bergkamp's testimonial last July. But how does the Club's new home actually work?
Moving from Highbury to the Emirates was one thing, but making sure everything is operational is quite another, particularly when you bear in mind the sheer size of Arsenal's 60,000-capacity venue.
As Emirates Stadium Week continues on Arsenal.com, we spoke to Stadium Manager John Beattie for an insight into his role at Arsenal and the slick operation which ensures home games go without a hitch.
John, tell us about your role and responsibilities
The Stadium Management department is responsible for two major things - the facilities and the safety requirements. We have to make sure, in a nutshell, that the supporters go home in the same condition that they arrived. If we can do that we've managed the event quite safely and successfully.
How much input did you have during the stadium's construction?
In the initial stages and design, not very much. It was only when we knew the project was going to take place that I started getting involved. Basically from the day we started digging in the ground I was then involved and was responsible for making sure that things put down on paper could work in practice.
What's your verdict on the first season at Emirates Stadium?
It has been a success. The last 10 months since we opened have been extremely busy but on the whole we would certainly take where we are. There are some teething problems which will require some tweaking but no more than that. We had three 'ramp-up' events last summer and we had no major problems. On the whole, it has worked just as we hoped it would.
Were you nervous before the first game, Dennis Bergkamp's testimonial?
Not really, we were far too tired to be nervous by that stage! Two weeks out we thought we were ready to open the stadium. We got the stadium the following Friday, we trained the stewards on the Saturday and Sunday because we hadn't been able to get the stewards into the stadium before then. We had been promised that but we took the view that to get the stewards in would mean the builders stop building. Did we want a building which was ready and staff which needed training quickly or fully-trained staff in a building which couldn't operate? It wasn't a hard decision. We had the first 'ramp-up' event on the following Tuesday, the second on the Thursday and the third - Bergkamp's testimonial - on the Saturday. We were just living it. My wife seems to think it was the best week of the year - I wasn't home!
Why was the facade of the stadium still bare for the first few matches?
It was a case of 'Arsenal-ising' the stadium afterwards, firstly because we wanted to see what needed doing and secondly because there were little changes being given to the contractors up until the last minute. So to throw in things to make the stadium look pretty and nice really couldn't be done that early. I don't think we would have opened had we done that.
What teething problems did you experience?
It's difficult to put your finger on too many, they were just small operational things. For example, the general availability of keys to open the place up on was a problem because what was supplied was not of a particularly high quality. We had to change every lock in the building so that took time to get done. The signage wasn't as good as it could be, it looked good on paper but you can never be certain until you actually put it on the wall. Some of the signage was in the wrong place too. It was just little things like that. Everything that was essential worked fine.
What is your agenda for a typical Saturday 3pm kick-off?
We start about two days before with the pre-match checks. We do our first stadium inspection on a Thursday, we walk round and issue worksheets for things that are missing. We have briefings during the last couple of days just to get things right. We're all in at 8am on the matchday to do another inspection of the ground. Then the personnel will start turning up between 11am and 11.30am, the stewards report for duty at 12pm, the police briefing takes place about 11. The ground opens in corporate areas at 12.30pm, the General Admission opens at 1pm. Hopefully it all goes swimmingly well. Then at the final whistle most people go home but some stay because we are open for two hours after the game. During event we are there just in case. We all get away around 8pm in the evening.
How does your role differ from the same job at Highbury?
It is more stressful now. I won't say Highbury was easy because if you think something is easy in a safety role then you shouldn't be doing it anymore. But Highbury was comfortable because we had been doing it for so many years, everybody knew what they were doing and it happened like clockwork. Here it is far more technologically advanced, so we had to learn all the technology and we are still learning some of it. There are a lot more communication systems because there are a lot more people. At Highbury we had 400 stewards and now we have 900, so just to communicate with those is a complex task in itself. The whole place is just so much bigger. At Highbury you could get anywhere in about five minutes, here you just about get to the next block in that time. We had to look at different ways of operating to make sure we still had the same response times that we had before, even though we have a far greater distance to cover now.
What is your highlight from the first year at Emirates?
Probably opening for the first game - Bergkamp's testimonial. There was so much relief and we could see the fruits of our labour.
And what is your favourite feature at the stadium?
In the first few months I didn't like the place because it was so much hard work! There was no fun involved because you have so many problems to react to. But gradually that has changed and now you can think about what you want to do. The best feature for me is the seats. We're the only outdoor stadium in the world, I believe, which has fully upholstered seats for everybody.

Happy Music Monday! There isn't much to say about romance that hasn't already been said, so this week, in honor of Valentine's Day, Scott's taking a different approach. He's made a five song mix based around the man who started the one-name fad: Romeo! Ready to fall in love with his picks? Here's the first one:
The Wipers - Romeo
The kid who got in a sword fight on the streets of Verona would surely jump to attention at the snap of an electric guitar. The Wipers turn the classic old story into an energy-filled race through a dark city in the name of love. You can just tell someone's going to get stabbed when you hear that scream.
While we'd love to have more Romeo songs in our mix, we'll make it easy for you: this week you can also post your favorite love song. The catch? You've got to tell us why it's your favorite. In the meantime, you'll find four more songs from Scott and last week's Spotify playlist after the jump. We'd love to see you there!
Our well-timed Spotify playlist will be featuring a great selection from last week's Music Monday comments. The theme of the mix this time is Anti-Love Songs just in case you need to balance out all the candy and lace you'll be running into this week. But before you start reminiscing, give your heart to our current Music Monday!
The Reflections - Just Like Romeo And Juliet
1964 was a good year for people falling in love. Sure, a lot of those Romeo-age teens would soon be protesting and experimenting, but not when this song first appeared. In the doo-wop like rhythms and the pleasant out-of-the-way sax, you can hear a complete lack of any sort of danger. Kids like this? They'd never worry about sneaking out to someone's balcony. What's the worst that could happen in such a safe place? Needing a nap the next day?
Taylor Swift - Love Story
A lot of people hate on tween pop, but every generation needs its own love songs. Taylor Swift doesn't say anything new in her version of Romeo and Juliet, but for a young kid just reading Shakespeare for the very first time in English class? This song would resonate like the Batman theme to a comics nerd. And clearly, it did.
Dire Straits - Romeo and Juliet
Yeah, see? All you people scoffing at Taylor Swift just came running right back in with smiles on your faces. What's the difference between this one and the song above it? Maybe Mark Knopfler's version sounds a little more mature, but it's still the same basic song. Boy meets girl, boy loses his heart, boy takes a chance. That having been said, Taylor Swift could learn a thing or two about lyrics from this one. Still one of my favorite love songs.
Steve Forbert - Romeo's Tune
A sweet little pop song that isn't slick, or really even very produced. Just a nice keyboard riff and some heartfelt feelings about sneaking away from reality for a while. And, really, what else IS teenage love?
Show your love by joining our pals in our Turntable.fm room for the regular Music Monday enjoyment. Maybe throw a love song in the comments too. Also, let us just remind you: some images come from the corresponding Wikipedia page and are here under fair use.
Since you went on a tangent with the Steve Forbert tune, I'll list the following songs where the singer trys to persuade, or likens their relationship to the one of Romeo & Juliet's:
"Don't Fear The Reaper" by Blue Oyster Cult
"Fire" by Bruce Springsteen (Pointer Sisters version is great too)
"Fever" by Peggy Lee
I sing no love songs, no forsworn Romeos or roses, but bring thee Queen Mab!
I've never heard it delivered as anything but a monologue before, but you inspired me to go hunting for a Musical Mab rendition.
While we'd love to have more Romeo songs in our mix, we'll make it easy for you: this week you can also post your favorite love song. The catch? You've got to tell us why it's your favorite. In the meantime, you'll find four more songs from Scott and last week's Spotify playlist after the jump. We'd love to see you there!
I'll take that route.
As much surprise to nobody I'll be going with one of my number 1 Turntable songs:
Wolf Parade - I'll Believe in anything
I saw these guys back in early 2004 and had no idea who they were. It was this song and "this heart's on fire" that made me love the band and search for more of them. Anyways I digress, I would like to believe this ended up being their most popular song, but I could always be wrong.
Why though? There is just so much sappy romantic imagery oozing out of this song. I've just always thought this to be one of the most romantic songs out there.
Lines like:
"Give me your eyes, I need sunshine
Your blood, your bones, your voice, and your ghost"
"And I could take another hit for you...take away your trips from you...take away the salt from your eyes...Take away what's been assaulting you"
Jeeze its. Just the writer is willing to do anything just to be with this woman, heart body and soul. It's a fantastic song. You could pick any line out of this song and it's all pretty. I only covered a couple. Besides, isn't half the fun of drawing your own meanings out of fun? Why should I ruin the rest by giving you my opinion on every line in a song
Curses, once again I am at work and cannot justify the search history for a Christian Death song! That being said, the best Romeo song is Romeo's Distress from "Only Theatre of Pain" and when I get home I will find a link to the Lydia Lunch spoken word piece "Black Romeo." It's about killing a cat.
It's like I'm offering you a big bag of the early '80's for Valentine's Day. Enjoy!
Later: good lord, is the internet so cat-centric that "Black Romeo" has been banned?! I can't find it anywhere; not even the text. If I were more organized/less lazy I would either upload the track from my cassette of "The Uncensored Lydia Lunch" or dig out the copy of Forced Exposure where the text is printed. But that's a lot of work for very little pay-off, so I won't. The good news is that it was totally off-topic.
Unrelated, except in a hey, it's 1981 or so way: I can't believe that in last week's topic I forgot one of my all-time favorite anti-love songs, Soft Cell's Say Hello, Wave Goodbye.
I don't wanna go
'ey Romeo!
There's somethin' down there
Ramones - I Don't Wanna Go Down To The Basement - YouTube
Favorite love song.... Can't call it, bro.
The Fluid 'Our Love Will Still Be There' - YouTube Troggs cover. Always had a soft spot for this one.
Beatles: It's All Too Much, Golden Slumbers, I Want To Tell You, Every Little Thing
Can't find it, but Shone Knife - The Perfect World.
"When I reach out to you it feels like coming home"
Hits me right in the feelers everytime....
Oh, fine... Love songs. I'm including hopeless crushing, humping, and lust, since they're so very often tied together.
Paramore - "CrushCrushCrush"
(A "Would you be my Valentine?" song.)
Felicia Day (The Guild) - "Do You Wanna Date my Avatar"
(A "Virtual Playdate Valentine" song)
"The Stars and the Moon"
(That encompassing, painful, engaging love that is passed over money and fame.)
Tripod - "Gonna Make You Happy"
(The platonic love between a gamer and his LTG... aka - too busy playing with the xbox to play with HER xbox.)
AKon (as covered by The Maine) - "I Wanna Love You"
(... love in a more physical sense)
Picard sings it the better than any of the above videos, as only he can. ;D
(A Gene Roddenberry Birthday Treat)
I also suggest any Cole Porter/Frank Sinatra or Cole Porter/Bing Crosby love songs as well.
ROFL - Misunderstood the main post.
FAVORITE love song?
That's a hard one, when there are so many...
OK, it took all week, the above off topic post, and a drive home in the dark to figure it out.
Favorite love song.
OK, here goes. Remember, you did ask why... and this "why" comes in two parts.
Remember how the music you listened to as a kid still kind of sticks with you? For me, unfortunately, that was Doo-wop, with some 60s and 70s mixed in. My sister had it tuned to the oldies station, and ignored all requests to change the frequency to the "Newest Hits" station, so my Music Education was The Beatles, The Supremes, and so on, and so forth.
So, Fast-Forward.
A relationship (and a half) later, I'm between boyfriends, using a dating site, and already pretty wary of most profiles and their corresponding dudes. One of the functions of the website was to tag "matches" for potential "friend" matches as well as "love" compatibility matches. Someone, following this, started chatting with me using the internal chat function. Lo and behold! They liked things I LIKED! They weren't looking for a relationship right away!!
We carried on chatting internally on the system off and on for a good month or so, and finally agreed to catch a movie together.
So I'm in the area, not at the designated meeting area yet, early for the "date" by about three hours, in a bookstore parking lot, killing time. It's a warm summer evening, my radio is on, my windows are down, and this song is playing:
I'm sitting in the car, thinking about how much I like the song, how the lyrics appeal to the emotive side and not the lusty or sexually repressed side, and how warm and gentle the music seems, surrounding the interior of the car.
And a person walks past my car just as it ends, who just happens to match the description of the guy I'm supposed to meet. At my favorite bookstore, in the area, three hours before our date. The song winds down; I flag him.
... And we literally have the best date in the history of all platonic "let's hang out more often" dates.
The End.
(True Story.)

Discussion in 'December 2009' started by roscoe36, Nov 3, 2009.
John Wall
Neither Wilcox or CV are defensive minded players, both of them are ball watchers. Just once I wish they'd just watch film on JJ, and see what it means to move and rotate on defense as opposed to watching the ball. Pairing the 2 of them together has put us in the negative EVERYTIME Kuester does it. Note to Q:THEY CAN'T PLAY TOGETHER!!!!!!!!!!!!! True but be fair, Noah and Thomas were taking it to our frontline as if they were all Chucky clones. Rarely do I agree wholeheartedly with what you post, but this is one of those instances. When I noticed this happen I was wondering if you'd put it in the LeeCap, good eye-General. For the last 2 games Maxiel has played the best defense out of any of our frontcourt players, including Ben Wallace and Jonas Jerrebko. Oh yeah in case y'all missed it before......DON'T PAIR CV AND WILCOX!!!!!!!!! EVER!!!! Especially when CV is hobbled with a foot injury....WTF????? It was less than a foot and he missed the ENTIRE RIM!!!!! 3rd game in a row where he's done that. It happened again in the 3rd qtr too. Good One!!
Agree about the Wilcox/CV thing. Ben Wallace is also showing some fatigue already you can't keep playing him extended mins. What Prince was doing playing 36 mins I don't know. JJ and Day once again looked tentative as if not wanting to step on anyones toes. Hard to believe this is the same JJ who score 20+ points for a few games or the same Day who would shoot us back into the game. They cannot be effective if they don't have the ball or take the shot. In defense of Rip. We all know Rip - right? We know he shoots better than 20% for his career. He needs more games to get back into shape. Big problem we have is our chemistry is still in 1st week of the season mode and everyone else has moved on. Have to do some catchup big time.
Especially when they're not even on the floor. Max here's what worries me, this is the 2nd season where Rip appears to be unwilling to change or sacrifice his game for the development of the team. I'm not saying this IS or WAS the case, it just appears that way. Sometimes I feel like he can't accept the fact that he may not be the leading scorer on this team
Thats exactly what I was thinking during that game. That Rip has to be the leading scorer on the team. This is a problem if he is to be a Reggie Miller type elder statesman. My point was that he is not going to be hurting the team once he gets his shot back. But he does need to move over a bit and make room for others. Maybe he thinks he is helping the team or that he has to set an example and be the one to take the shot. I don't know.
I think that the coaches (past and present) have had difficultly reducing Tay's minutes because of lack of bench players and that they forget that Tay is on the court sometimes. He is just invisible.
Part of the problem with Rip is his game is based on being ready to shoot when he catches the ball. That's why he puts up more shots than anyone else. I don't think it is an ego or alpha dog type thing. To a point he would be hurting the team by not shooting.
If Rip was knocking them down at his historic pace, there would be no problem at all. He's proven that he's one of the best in the game at what he does, so let's allow him to get his legs back and see if he helps us. Without him, we are the worst shooting team in the league, we have the fewest assists, and we play at just about the slowest pace. Rip can help all of these things and he can draw the defense out of the paint.
It's hard to argue against him too much based on 3 games with all the success he has had in the past with his game. Right now I think it's mainly a chemistry thing. How many different lineups have we had? Even the non-injured guys have been moved in and out and to different positions. Stuckey was at SG for a while. JJ is now at PF when he started at SF. Ben Was the PF and now he mainly plays center. Maxiel, Wilcox and Kwame are in and out. Who knows what Day will play. Need some time and there may not be enough left.
We need Rip to regain his old touch. It's just a matter of time before that happens. Heck, we're willing to give Stuckey years to figure out what kind of guard he should be. Let's give Rip a half-dozen games to get back into the flow of live action. It's an easy way to correct one of our deficiencies.
Patience will pay off if Rip can get back to his old self. The biggest thing I want to see Q do is limit the minutes of our players. I want Rip and BG splitting the SG minutes. I want Stuck and Bynum sharing the PG minutes. LEt Daye and Tay split the SF minutes while JJ and CV split the PF minutes. Center by committee since we have Ben, Kwame, Wilcox. I don't care if Rip and Bengo are paid X number of dollars and one is on the pine more then the other. If we can stay fresh and healthy it will PAY off in the play offs. We can get there and make some noise but we have to be 90% healthy and fresh.
Playoffs? You're talking about playoffs?
Fortunately or unfortunately I think its going to be too hard not to make the playoffs. Not going to shoot 30% every game. Once the shots start falling it will score more points and be a lot less pressure on the defense.
...when THE MAN comes around. Maybe we should just sit everyone for the fourth quarter.
You want Stuckey and Bynum getting an equal amount of minutes? I certainly don't.
Rip is not stupid. Just like everybody else, he realized that the BG signing makes him expendable. He knows full well that he has become the trading piece that will be used to bring in a good big man to Detroit. There's really no real incentive for him to help the Pistons any more. He probably feels that his tenure with the Pistons is done and is trying to showcase himself.
DD said sharing not splitting. That doesn't imply equal shares, and I doubt that's what DD had in mind. DD, I like your thinking, but there's no way 24 mpg is enough for either Rip or BG. We need to keep Prince's minutes down in the mid to low 30s and for the first time in years, we have a bench (and lowered expectations) to accomplish that. Rip & Prince's minutes are my primay complaint with Kuester.
My thought would be that we should be able to flip flop the minutes. One game Rip will play 30 and BG will play about 30 the next, depending on who is hot or has the better match up. It wouldn't bother me to see WB get fewer minutes and to see BG playing the point. I just don't want three guards out there. With our current roster and expectations; we should be playing a traditional line up at all times. I agree with Rip and Tays minutes. That is why I want to see traditional line up. There is no need increasing Rip's minutes by playing him at the 3. I guess I would like to see our main guys (Stuck, Rip,Tay,BG,CV,Ben) average about 30 minutes a game. That means that some games they will play more and some games less but at the end I would like to see about 30 for each.
While the losses are annoying, I'm still surprisingly hopeful about this team. It's obvious that there's work that needs to be done, but the team is performing about what we expected before the season started. We just got our hopes up by the gutsy play of the youngsters during the injury-ridden stretch. Depsite the 9-game losing streak, I'd rather watch this year's team than the debacle that was last year. Last year was the closing credits of a bad movie. This year is the previews before a potentially good movie. BTW, Q will win more games than Tablecloth and we will make the playoffs*. Yes, there are negatives. All of our big men are specialists. There isn't a single big man we have that Q can put in the game without trying to figure out how to counter the gaping hole created by putting that player in the game. But, there are positives too. Stuckey is finally making good progress.Gordon has shown that he really is a lethal shooter.CV actually has shown that he can be a great offensive player with post moves. We haven't had a PF that had more than 2 shots in his arsenal in a loooooooooong while.Big Ben is leading by example and is really helping the rookies grow.All 3 rookies we signed have shown they can play in the NBA. Especially JJ.Bynum has shown that 10-20 games of last season was no fluke.Q is working 1 on 1 with players and watching game tapes with Stuckey. Those are going to pay off.The coach is making good decisions and also bad mistakes. He actually is coming up with various strategies/game plans; some succeed and some don't. But, do you know what this all means? He is sentient. That's a big upgrade from last year.I think this year will end up better than last year, and next year better than this. I'm ok with that. --- * Unless we actually end up trading for T-Mac.
Oh, I see. I misunderstood. I agree with you that our main guys should average ~30 mpg. However, I'd prefer to have CV around 33-35 range and Wallace around 25-30 range. Our 3/4 lineup really should be divided primarily among Prince/CV/JJ with Wilcox, Daye and JMax used as appropriate.
Separate names with a comma.

Viewers of the upcoming pre-season TV special, Richmond Basketball: The Tradition Spins On, will be taken on a basketball journey from the streets of Philadelphia to the waterways of Venice, and on a walk down Richmond basketball's tradition-rich memory lane that tips off this year's celebration of 100 Years of Spider Basketball.
The fast-paced, half hour show, produced by SpiderTV's Mark Kwolek and Blake Ellett, will air three times on Comcast SportsNet Mid-Atlantic. The premiere is scheduled for Thursday Nov. 1 at 9:30 pm, with encore showings Sunday Nov. 4 at 9:00 am and Monday Nov. 5 at 9:30 pm.
Junior forward Derrick Williams gives a unique players' perspective as narrator, serving as host for a behind-the-scenes experience with Spider Basketball.
The show spans the globe, traveling with this year's Spider team on its summer journey to Switzerland and Italy. Closer to home, there's a visit to Chris Mooney's native Philadelphia, with never-before-seen footage of the neighborhood and schools that helped steer him on a path to Richmond as the Spiders' successful head coach.
The show also includes a typical day on campus for a Spider student-athlete - reigning Atlantic 10 Rookie of the Year Kendall Anthony, and a poignant piece on a former Spider student manager who turned to the Mooney family for guidance, comfort and support on, as host Derrick Williams says, "the worst day of her life, and the best."
Finally, the tradition of Richmond basketball meets face-to-face with a one-on-one conversation as Coach Mooney and Hall of Fame Coach Dick Tarrant interview each other about how they both led Spider Basketball to Sweet 16 appearances and national prominence.
Following its airings on Comcast SportsNet, Richmond Basketball: The Tradition Spins On, will also be available on-demand on RichmondSpiders.com.
The Spider men's basketball team tips off its season Friday Nov. 9 with a 7pm game at the Robins Center against Liberty.

Iddee, I've heard that Bjorn is lesbian trapped in a man's body. That's what started the whole queen marking thing...:-D
Personally, I don't think much of anyone that accepts, takes part in, or sits idle, and says nothing about the somewhat questionable conversation regarding blacks, gays, women or any other group, then gets all P.C. when their particular group is all of a sudden thrown into the mix.
Nice, long speeches. Now, the truth. The true ignorance is shown when someone suggests a rattlesnake and a bunny rabbit should be treated the same when encountered. There are signs from knowing the history of anything that signals one as to how to treat that thing. If those signs are ignored, that many times becomes the Darwin award. You can't get much dumber than that.
When it comes to a public forum where thousands see the one-sided attitude displayed, then I personally feel that if nothing else is said, it does tend to display to others that this is the norm.
We're waiting for the video.............. :-D
BJ, I'm not as good at finding old threads as you are, so why don't you go find the one where you accused me of marrying my blood kin, as rednecks are expected to do. In your opinion, anyway. Then explain to the folks on the forum whether you meant it as an off-color joke, or if you really think rednecks are that way?

By Chris Harris
Arsène Wenger has never been concerned about Ju Young Park's adaptation to English football - because even the best players need time to settle.
The South Korea captain started his second game for Arsenal on Tuesday night and registered his first goal with a flourish, converting Andrey Arshavin's pass to secure a 2-1 Carling Cup win over Bolton.
Park has not featured as much as some of Wenger's summer signings thus far but his new manager has complete faith in him.
"Park arrived on August 31 and now we are at the end of October - that's two months," Wenger told Arsenal Player.
"Thierry Henry started to play in November and arrived earlier, so it takes some time to settle. Park is a quality player, we see that in training, and he is a very intelligent player. That can come out in the game. Overall I believe you will see more and more of Park.
"He personally needed that goal of course but I believe when new players arrive at a club you need that to convince people you deserve to be where you are.
"Many people think that unless you are coming with a massive transfer fee [you cannot succeed easily]. If he had come with a big transfer fee everybody would have been full of what he achieved. He is showing that he is at the level to play for Arsenal Football Club and certainly the goal will help him to gain confidence."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) – The Green Bay men's basketball team will continue to call the Resch Center home through at least the 2017-18 season, Green Bay Athletics and PMI Entertainment Group announced at a joint press conference on Thursday morning.
The five-year agreement continues a partnership dating back to 2002-03, when the Phoenix began playing its home games at the state-of-the-art facility which opened prior to that season. The extension gives Green Bay men's basketball priority status for scheduling events and also includes increased marketing and advertising support aimed at driving ticket sales and sponsorships. Green Bay and PMI will collaborate branding efforts to give the Phoenix an increased presence in the facility.
"We have had a long history of success and tradition playing home games on the corner of Oneida and Lombardi, and our program looks forward to continuing this success with our partnership with PMI Entertainment Group and the Resch Center," said Interim Director of Athletics Dan McIver. "We thank Ken Wachter and PMI for their commitment to our program moving forward, and we look forward to entertaining Phoenix fans with high-quality basketball at the Resch Center for years to come."
Since opening play in the Resch Center, Green Bay has posted a 109-37 record in the facility for a winning percentage of 74.6 percent in 11 seasons. Current head men's basketball coach Brian Wardle has been on the Phoenix bench for eight of those seasons, including the past three as the head coach while guiding Green Bay to wins in 78.6 percent of its games in the facility (33-9).
"Green Bay Basketball has experienced great success at the Resch Center, and we have always been extremely excited to call it our home," said Wardle. "The Resch Center is one of the best venues in the Horizon League and our players love playing here in front of Phoenix fans. With its size, location and amenities, the Resch Center provides us with a great home atmosphere as well as recruiting and scheduling advantages."
Green Bay played its first home game at the Resch Center on Nov. 30, 2002 against Wisconsin, and in 2013-14 will again welcome the Badgers for its first regular season home game on Nov. 16, 2013. The 2013-14 season will be the first time since the inaugural season that the Phoenix will welcome Virginia on Saturday, Dec. 7 at 4 p.m. To check out the complete 2013-14 schedule, click here.
"It's an exciting day for us because we have always considered the Phoenix a prime tenant of the Resch Center," said PMI Entertainment Group President Ken Wachter. "We are pleased this new agreement allows us to continue to host Division I basketball for at least another five years."
