I went to the paint store today and they said.....
I went to the paint store today for some tape, hardener and sand paper, then I had to ask some questions about primer. It has been 10 years since I have worked in a body shop so I am kind of rusty with the body work thing. I asked them if the Omni Urethane Primer was just hard to sand and he said yes if you are wet sanding, no if you are dry sanding. I then asked him what would sand better than the Omni 182 and he told me the 181 lacquer primer. I am no big fan of lacquer primers, I think they don't fill very well and they draw up moisture. The paint salesman told me that this brand of lacquer primer doesn't draw up moisture plus it is a high build, I say BS. He then tells me that if I am going to strip the paint on my car I need to etch the metal, then seal it, do the bodywork and then prime it with this primer. I understand etching the car, but sealing it then doing the work and then priming? This is *** backward what I was taught in college. I was taught to strip bad paint fix dents etch metal and prime with a good 2 stage water proof primer. Am I just behind the times or is the way things should be done????
I'VE always heard and been told/ taught to sand down to bare metal, do the body work, etch primer that, sealer, paint.
but here lately i hear more and more people say to etch prime then filler.... and this is from people who's opinions i respect and value. not some schnook like me.:mwink:
i bought a gallon of K36 the other day, the guy i got it from said he didn't use it any more, that now days, he uses evercoat on bare metal, then uses that icing stuff over that, then an epoxy primer, then paint....
but i don't think i can hardly bring myself to lay down anything over just the minutest little smidgen of filler on anything but bare metal. :confused:
I am not a professional painter, I just do my own work but times are changing guys... The quality and cost of paints has gone up big time in the last ten years and, you guessed it... some of the processes have changed.
Spraying paint?
I had a real big problem with spraying paint while it's raining out... but the two part paints don't care. They cure with a chemical reaction and couldn't care less what the humidity is. It's better to spray when it's raining because the dust and bugs are down... I sprayed my truck with Nason BC/CC this spring while it was raining cats a dogs outside and it came out beautifully! Absolutely ZERO blushing (remember spraying laquer when the humidity was a little high?) and it laid down so smooth it was amazing...
Body Work?
Strip the car... metal etch and/or spray a self etching primer like Duponts Vari-Prime and then spray on a high fill epoxy primer/surfacer as your base for body work. It works, my truck is proof and it really helps keep the moisture from leaching back into or under all of your unprimed body work.
Talk to your paint store guys... They are in the business to help and guide you and have an open mind 'cause some of the "new fangled" ideas work pretty well.
And have some fun too!
I would take the guys advice about etch, sealer then body work. Not too sure about the lacquer primer thing though.
Well guys I guess I'm from the old school,I try all the new paint technique's, some I use some I don't, I try to stay with the ones that will work for me .
I have never applied filler of any kind over anything but bare metal, in 50 years I have never had any crack or come off. I have done repairs where there was old repairs and any place there was filler over anything but bare metal it came off easer.
The only time I use etching primer is when I have sand blasted a pitted area.
I use a urethane primer over the filler and to seal the bare metal. Normally I use fast fill easy sand acrylic lacquer primer to do my leveling and filling.sometimes i well use a urethane primer, but it is slower.
When I have every thing like I want it , I seal it with a tinted urethane sealer.
I have some cars of my own that stay outside, and some that stay inside, some have been painted for over 10 years and they will still win paint awards.
To finish, I think that a lot of the new painting systems are designed by engineers and salesman to satisfy the bean counters, And most of them have never been in a body shop or painted a car. I'm sure that some of the younger painters will come on here and say that my methods are outdated, but hey why fix something that isn't broken?
If you don't make mistakes. your not doing anything.

26 T sedan street rod
So far what I have been doing(what the local paint guys told me)
I strip to bare metal, do my bodywork(fillers,icing,etc) Then prime with a filler primer(requires hardener)...this primer is also a sealer when mixed differently. Then I will paint.
Once the primer is dried and sanded it is tough as nails. I like the fact that I don't have to buy a sealer to go over top of it with before paint.
BTW it is a U-Pol filler primer...I was using CarSystems but they seemed to have disappeared.

text: Hello clubWRX... I wanted to get some quick answers about this situation. I'm 16 1/2 and in August i'm getting my license and a car. So I wanted to know a few things. My uncle owns and have been owning STI's since I was a child recently he bought a 2015 wrx sti launch edition, He texted me telling me i should look into a 2002 WRX because of how reliable and safe they are. But i've done TONS and TONS of research and people are saying just stick to a civic or an Intergra because of the fact that we are teenagers. I understand that. But is this what I want to know. Is this a good idea ? Do you think that a 02 WRX is a good First car ? My uncles and cousins told me they would teach me stuff i need to know. But from your point of view, do you think I should get this car ? And i'm not worried about the insurance I seen how much it'll be. Please no hate, just a guy looking for advice. And also. I fell in love with this car the moment I saw it.

Coping with work-family conflict
14 July 2013 , 9:11 AM by Rob Minshull
Are we working longer hours and spending more time at work than ever before? Or is it just that our lives seem so much busier these days?
At times of work-family conflict, men are apparently more likely to treat work as a given and home life as changeable, while women will try to change work to accommodate family demands.
This is the opinion of Professor Michael O'Driscoll from the University of Waikato in New Zealand. The professor has recently returned home after delivering a presentation in Perth for the Australian Psychological Society all about how we cope with work-family issues. He is talking to Warren Boland.

I definitely loved the Trinity (My Name Is Nobody) series with Terrence Hill and Bud Spencer.

Bishop Richard Williamson has been asked to leave Argentine after continuing to make remarks concerning his disbelief that anything such as the Holocaust ever happened. He insists, based on his "research" that historical evidence was "hugely against six million having been deliberately gassed in gas chambers as a deliberate policy of Adolf Hitler." The Catholic Church has made clear it is washing its hands of the bishop and he is on his own. Williamson was met by documentary maker Michele Renouf, who believes it is a "disgrace" there is no reasoned debate about the Holocaust.
I hate to inform the good bishop but several thousand books have been written about the Holocaust, there are hundreds of historical works which analyze in great detail every aspect of the Holocaust and there are still thousands who were in the death camps where most of their companions were gassed in the non-existent gas chambers.
Historians have been "debating" virtually every aspect of the Holocaust and have examined thousands of documents from Nazi Germany. There were at least nine million Jews in Europe in 1939 and by 1945 the number was closer to 3,000,000. Perhaps, the six million went to Argentine.

Can wait on mean 'to wait for'?
American dialectologists have evidence showing wait on (sense 3) to be more a Southern than a Northern form in speech. Handbook writers universally denigrate wait on and prescribe wait for in writing. Our evidence from printed sources does not show a regional preference; it does show that the handbooks' advice is not based on current usage. settlement of the big problems still waited on Russia — Time I couldn't make out … whether Harper was waiting on me for approval — E. B. White the staggering bill that waited on them at the white commissary downtown — Maya Angelou One reason for the continuing use of wait on may lie in its being able to suggest protracted or irritating waits better than wait for. for two days I've been waiting on weather — Charles A. Lindbergh the boredom of black Africans sitting there, waiting on the whims of a colonial bureaucracy — Vincent Canby doesn't care to sit around waiting on a House that's virtually paralyzed — Glenn A. Briere Wait on is less common than wait for, but if it seems natural, there is no reason to avoid it.

Springer Wildfire at 1145 acres Friday
Full containment expected on Sunday
PARK COUNTY, Colo. - The Springer wildfire, which ignited Sunday, continues to burn in Elevenmile Canyon between Lake George and Elevenmile Reservoir in Park County.
Authorities tell KRDO NewsChannel 13 the fire's size is now at 1145 acres and there is now 59% containment. Full containment is expected to happen on Sunday.
On Friday, Gov. John Hickenlooper declared a disaster for the Springer Fire and authorized $1 million to the state's Disaster Emergency Fund to pay for firefighting efforts.
Authorities said even though the fire no longer is moving toward Teller County, mandatory, voluntary and standby evacuations remain in effect for all affected communities until further notice.
Greg Heule, a fire team spokesman, said the situation remains serious because a fire in a canyon can suddenly intensify and spread quickly if conditions are favorable.
No homes or other structures have burned yet, and that comes as relief to a woman concerned about losing her summer home.
"The fire retardant kept the flames away," said Lynn Lansford. "I'm very relieved."
But Bodie Packham said he was going to prepare to evacuate anyway.
"Just in case anything changes," he said.
Concerned residents attended a briefing on the fire Monday night at the lake George Fire Station.
"We're feeling a little better," said Kim Packham. "We'll just have to keep an eye on it and pray that it keeps going the way it's going."
There will be another community fire briefing on Friday evening at 8:00 p.m. at the Lake George fire station for evacuees, residents, and interested public. Park and Teller County Sheriffs, US Forest Service representative, incident command personnel, and the Incident Commander will be in attendance to present progress made on the fire and to answer questions.
The following mandatory evacuations remain in effect as of Friday afternoon: Wagon Tongue Subdivision, Echo Valley Subdivision, Circle C Ranch, Hidden Valley Ranch, and all of Park County Roads 98 and 403. The evacuation orders have been lifted for Beaver Valley Ranch and Beaver Valley Estates.
The Teller County Sheriff's Office also issued voluntary or standby evacuations for Sanborn Ranch, Wilson Lakes Estates, Forest Glenn Sports Association, Blue Mountain Estates, West Florissant Heights, Indian Creek, Valley High subdivisions and areas west of Wildhorn Road and Teller County Road 31.
Boy Scout Camp Alexander was evacuated Sunday and will remain closed until further notice. Pikes Peak Council would like to thank the firefighters who helped keep the Springer Fire from damaging Camp Alexander.
The fire was first reported at about 12 p.m. Sunday and spread very quickly.
Early Monday morning, a law enforcement source working the fire confirmed with KRDO NewsChannel 13 that "shooting explosive targets" was the cause of the fire. However, U.S. Forest Service spokesman Greg Goodland also said there was a lot of lightning in the area on Saturday.
Officially, Goodland said, the cause of the fire remains under investigation.
Federal air attack resources along with Forest Service, the Bureau of Land Management and resources from Park and Teller counties are assisting.
As of Friday afternoon there are 509 personnel on the fire, consisting of three hotshot crews, seven hand crews, 44 engines and four helicopters. Two heavy air tankers are available as needed by the firefighters.
Park County roads, 62, 90, 92 and 96 are closed.
A Red Cross evacuation shelter is open at Woodland Park High School.
Evacuees with large animals can take those animals to the fairgrounds in Cripple Creek.
Small animals can be taken to the Teller County Animal Shelter in Divide.
This is the second wildfire near Lake George in less than a week.
Firefighters previously battled the 30-acre Arkansas Fire, which was ignited by lightning on Wednesday night.
Authorities said having resources still in the area gave them a good head start on the Springer Fire.

Menorrhagia is the medical term for menstrual periods with abnormally heavy or prolonged bleeding. Although heavy menstrual bleeding is a common concern among premenopausal women, most women don't experience blood loss severe enough to be defined as menorrhagia.
With menorrhagia, every period you have causes enough blood loss and cramping that you can't maintain your usual activities. If you have menstrual bleeding so heavy that you dread your period, talk with your doctor. There are many effective treatments for menorrhagia.

This post is part one in a series. Please check out parts two and three.
This year, Blogging Against Disablism Day falls in the context of a great deal of celebration around the 50th anniversary of FDA approval of the hormonal birth control pill. Since most of my disability experiences have come with the birth control pill, I thought I'd take the BADD opportunity to talk about the intersection and write out my birth control narrative – what works for me, what doesn't, and what ableism has to do with it.
Birth control is and was often (though by no means always) constructed as an unambiguous win for women. It's strongly, strongly associated with the birth of the second wave of the feminist movement (though I've noted that the second wave is often omitted, effectively erasing the work of the first wave). And hormonal birth control has been wonderful and liberating for women in the final balance. The fiftieth anniversary of hormonal birth control should be celebrated. Hormonal birth control is wonderful.
But it is not unambiguously positive for women. It is not all of our liberation.
Birth control as a topic is simply not centrally relevant or empowering to every woman. Not all women are at risk of pregnancy. Widespread (rather than individual) centralization of birth control in feminism alienates and marginalizes their already problematized bodies: trans women, intersex women, older women, lesbian women, women with disabilities that affect their reproductive system, asexual women, women who want to get pregnant. Not to mention the loaded history of otherwise non-privileged bodies with birth control in light of the eugenics movement.
In the course of discussion of birth control, though, options which are not hormonal birth control or condoms are often erased or devalued. IUDs are unobtainable. Withdrawal is silly and irresponsible. Diaphragms are old-fashioned, ineffective, and irrelevant.
But these are the options those who need non-hormonal birth control. The voices of folks who need and use alternative methods of birth control are ignored or erased in favor of more popular methods. The downsides of these methods are not discussed or dismissed as minimal, marginal.
Women with disabilities are often (though not always) sexual, and some of us are at risk of pregnancy. When we go to the doctor, our questions may be brushed away because of disbelief in our sexuality. Our concerns about certain methods may be ignored because we are women, and not competent to make decisions about our own bodies. Our desires may be blocked due to our finances. Our fertility and desire for children may be discouraged or ignored based on the assumption that we don't want to pass on to children the qualities and conditions that make society uncomfortable with us.
I'm writing about my experience with birth control for a few reasons.
The first reason: to provide a narrative of my disability and how I've experienced it: its causes, its fluctuations, its triggers. Folks with disabilities are socialized to be ashamed of our bodies and our disabilities. It's important for those of us who can and want to contribute our voices to the conversation surrounding disability in an effort to counter harmful stereotypes and tropes.
Another reason: to provide a practical example of how ableism and reproductive rights intersect, and how feminist and mainstream constructions harm marginalized folks by normalizing some experiencing and othering others.
The last reason: to provide an alternative birth control narrative – a different story of how I've prevented getting pregnant thus far. I'm not the only one who's had hormonal birth control pushed upon me, but I have found a system that's wonderful for me. I want to share my methods and my journey towards them in the hope that someone whose birth control needs are challenged will find some useful tool in my story.
Check back tomorrow for said narrative. Also check out:

OCD, language, and my place on the disability spectrum: parts one and two
See more of BADD 2010.
ETA 5/5/10: I forgot to mention somewhere that trans men are often excluded from discussions of birth control, though many trans men use it. In a post that critiques the discussion of birth control in feminist communities, this erases the experiences of some folks, which is not cool. Apologies.

Managing premenstrual syndromes
What are some tips in order for a woman to manage or handle premenstrual syndromes such as irritability and feeling tired? I find myself feeling this way a few days before my monthly period even if I don't intend myself to be in such state. I desire to feel and handle it better because I don't want to offend my love ones living with me.

Stay healthy, drink plenty of water, and avoid caffiene. If your symptoms are severe you may have something known as premenstrual dysphoric disorder

Hi Anne,
Some of the best things you can do to avoid PMS is to avoid sugar as much as possible. Then be sure you're getting enough essential fatty acids like cod liver oil, flax oil or Evening Primrose Oil. I've found that taking 1 Tablespoon of high quality olive oil each day can greatly help with hormonal balance and lessen PMS.
Another thing you could try is taking some inositol every day. This is a B vitamin that helps with balancing mood so you're happier and not so grumpy or sad.
And as for energy - when we're losing blood, it's best not to exercise too vigorously - in fact rest during this first part of the cycle (the menstrual phase) can be very beneficial. Be sure you're getting plenty of good sleep every night, and if you have a child that wakes you up at night, post back and I'll try to give you some ideas on how to get more sleep. Sleep is super, super important. You want to sleep in a dark room. The way to test if your room is dark enough is by holding your hand in front of your face. If you can see it, your room needs to be darker.
You will probably be tempted to eat sweets and white rice and crackers/cookies when you have low energy, but this will just make things worse, so try to stay away from them, eat a little something every 2 hours to keep your blood sugar stable, and have a piece of fresh fruit when you want something sweet.
Hope this helps!
Warm regards,

Thank you Kate for these practical tips that made me worry less in dealing with my PMS. I was also thinking of sharing this with my family particularly to my husband. He's been very patient with me though he finds me really weird and annoying during this period. I want to lessen (if not remove) the tension with my love ones whenever I am going through this condition.

It's finally here. The Forrester Market Overview: SaaS IT Service Management Tools covers: a little ITSM tool history and how we have moved on, the benefits and risks of the SaaS delivery model, key selection criteria for selecting a SaaS (or on-premises) tool, and overviews of 23 tools (from 21 vendors) and their functional capabilities across the enterprise and midmarket marketplaces.
"Why on earth did you write a SaaS-only ITSM report?" I hear some cry
It's simple – Forrester client demand. In 2012, a good 25% of my 400ish a year client inquiries related to IT service management (ITSM) tool selection; and the SaaS-delivery model (and the key vendors) was covered in nigh on all of them. That's not to say the client ultimately went SaaS though, inquiries are very much about rapid information exchange in helping clients make important decisions. It's not about making the decision for the client.
What the SaaS ITSM market looks like
The following figure shows the 23 vendor tools split by average customer subscription (seat) count (described as Enterprise, Upper Midmarket, and Lower Midmarket) and their degree of customer success (the number of paying customers):
There are of course other ITSM tool vendors who declined to participate for a variety of reasons. One would be that they were not briefing Forrester analysts and thus not on our radar.

I've recently discovered the great opportunities TEFL provides ,and I've also discovered the staggering amount of websites which promise prestigious courses and quick employemnet.
I live in Honduras, so it has to be an online course.http://www.teflcourse.net/seems to be safe and promising. Any opinions on that? For $295,they're offering a 120 hr course along with a CTBE or CTEYL for free(good? bad? there's better?). If I took the two courses what would be my odds on finding employment three months from now?
Also how much difficult would a job search be for somebody who isn't neither American or Canadian?

Lima Beans [Tasty Thursday]
Everybody hates lima beans. I mention them to my mom, she says ew. I mention them to my friends, they say ew.
"Ew" was pretty much my default response to vegetables in general before I moved into my own place last year. I decided that a radical shift in my living style that would necessitate a radical change in my diet, and to begin cooking for myself. Actually eating fruits and vegetables was the biggest shift I made from my previous diet of Mom and College foods, so I tried everything, and was surprised by what I did and did not like when I sampled them as side dishes. Okra? Sounds cool, but definite ew. Mushrooms? Rad texture.
Lima beans? Mind-blowing. I really don't get limaphobia. I have lima beans two to three nights a week. I thank lima beans for a solid digestive system.
Preparation suggestions: I only eat the frozen lima beans. These take 20-25 minutes to boil. In the last five minutes, I slowly melt some butter in another pan, and add a moderate amount of basil and garlic powder. I also add lemon pepper, but very sparingly. Add the lima beans, and cook at low (1 or 2) for ten minutes or more. I add more of the flavors above to taste.

Boiling frozen vegatables is probably usually the wrong approach, unless you plan on using that water (like, a soup or whatnot). Otherwise you end up loosing a lot of flavour (and I understand vitamins, though I may be wrong on that point.)ReplyDelete
If you're going to end by frying them in butter (and there's nothing I don't recommend frying in butter), just start there too, maybe on a bit of a lower heat, and let 'em thaw out there. Then you loose nothing.
HEY! i didn't know i liked limas until i had them at your chicken coop! and congrats on feministing!ReplyDelete

Not something I could get away with wearing.
I the line work on the faces of the flowers. It's great to see an Alice in Wonderland inspired design that feels like it popped from the original Lewis Carrol text.
Elegantly interesting with nicely muted colors
Very nice depiction and soft color palette for a Lewis Carroll storybook scene. It makes up for the millions of absurdly UV color-filled pieces out there before this. And luckily, I don't have to be on an acid-trip to wear this one.
Awesome job on this design, Jill.
Ohhh, this is done by the same person that did one of my favorite shirts "Alice's Sewing Basket."
Nice to see you on woot.
Beautiful! Great job Jillustration!
This reminds me of a drawing assignment in college: "Create an anthropomorphic botanical illustration". I'm getting one of these shirts for sure
Curse the creme! I love this, but there's no way I could pull it off on that color :/
And I'm like, Wow.
Christmas is coming early this year...for me. LOL I love this, the colors are awesome.
The writers did a great job with the wear/don't wear, etc. Alice references.
I bet you could learn a lot of things from those flowers... Especially in the month of June.
Gorgeous. It looks like the flowers are, from left to right, a dandelion, tiger-lily, snapdragon, daisy, and carnation.
The first three are obvious visual puns, but am I missing a specific pun with the daisy and carnation?
It scared me when I was young, and it scares me now.
I love how a top hat makes it a 'dandy' lion.
All in the golden afternoon
Full leisurely we glide;
For both our oars, with little skill,
By little arms are plied,
While little hands make vain pretense
Our wanderings to guide.
Ah, cruel Three! In such an hour,
Beneath such dreamy weather,
To beg a tale of breath too weak
To stir the tiniest feather!
Yet what can one poor voice avail
Against three tongues together?
Imperious Prima flashes forth
Her edict to "begin it"--
In gentler tones Secunda hopes
"There will be nonsense in it"--
While Tertia interrupts the tale
Not more than once a minute.
Anon, to sudden silence won,
In fancy they pursue
The dream-child moving through a land
Of wonders wild and new,
In friendly chat with bird or beast--
And half believe it true.
And ever, as the story drained
The wells of fancy dry,
And faintly strove that weary one
To put the subject by,
"The rest next time"--"It is next time!"
The happy voices cry.
Thus grew the tale of Wonderland:
Thus slowly, one by one,
Its quaint events were hammered out--
And now the tale is done,
And home we steer, a merry crew,
Beneath the setting sun.
Alice! a childish story take,
And with a gentle hand
Lay it where Childhood's dreams are twined
In Memory's mystic band,
Like pilgrim's withered wreath of flowers
Plucked in a far-off land.
I'm sorry, I love Alice and Wonderland stuff but, this looks like something I'd find in my grandmother's old quilts and shirts from the ladies department of JC Penny.
In essence, it looks very hipster. *shudders* Hipsters...
Hmm, I see the Alice in Wonderland ideas, but for some reason they reminded me more strongly of illustrations for the L. Frank Baum Oz books.
Before I even looked closely at the illustration or the title I was like hey, that reminds me of Alice in Wonderland. Then I saw the title and the actual drawing. Very nice job on making an excellent Alice-esque design!
Now that is a well-rounded dandelion.
Very lovely illustration.
I predict that this shirt will be popular with the ladies!!
MaxAwesome wrote:I love how a top hat makes it a 'dandy' lion.
Incidentally, "Dandelion" comes from the French dent de lion, or "lion's tooth," in reference to the jagged leaves of the plant.
Anyone else thinks this looks terrifyingly like it came out of the Voynich Manuscript? (I actually thought it was in reference to that when I clicked on the Shirt.Woot thumbnail from one of the other Woots.)
Clearly, it's time for a sing-a-long.
character on the right looks just like Stan Laurel.
So just in case, don't wear this while moving your furniture!
Bottom-line is, these are some nice lines!
My zombie bunny shirt will eat these wussy flowers for Thanksgiving!!!
What's up with all the feminine shirts as of late?
Nice illustration but creme is a no go, recently got a creme shirt in my random shirt order and it's the worst material ever, thin and see-through.
Happy Thanksgiving w00ters!
Wow! Beutifull illustration!
Congrats on the print JIll
And happy thanksgiving everybody!
Lol I love how they slipped George Orwell's Animal Farm into the end of the description. Hahaha!
i would love a shirt.woot in this color, but this design is a bit creepy and not really a good look for a guy...
This is...fantastic! If the plants I mutated ever lived past the callus stage I imagine they'd look like this. :X Thanks for printing this...I know it might not be that popular but I adore it. I appreciate seeing something other than the kawaii desu from time to time (nttawwkd).
I think all that acid I took in highschool is starting to catch up with me.
Yay! I'm so happy this is finally on a tee! Except, I live in Champaign, IL not Houston TX! Happy Thanksgiving all!
Nice artistic design with clean lines and good color. It's not something I could get away with wearing, but I know people who would love this.
This is lovely work. An authentically antique illustration style, that's not something you see on shirts very often and yet it works so nicely.
Your dandy lions are especially cool.
Congrats Jillustration! Lovely illustration and whimsical characters.

Hey guys,
I have been asked to the last minute to make a Scout Trooper (diaper) Cumberbund for SDCC.
I have been online looking for some dimensions for this thing... anyone have one they could give me an idea from theirs.
I made one a long time ago for MediaGuy also a rushed sort of situation and I cannot find anything I had as far as notes from that one.
I know there are six or eight vertical or ribbings down the front.
What else?
Thanks so much!!!

Ryan Nassib Scouting Report
|Syracuse Orange

|Second Round

2013 NFL Draft Prospect Scouting Report:
Ryan Nassib, QB, Syracuse
Nassib struggled at the Senior Bowl practices, particularly with his accuracy when throwing intermediate and deep routes. Footwork was inconsistent and he looked generally out of sync. Short area passing game looked very good.
He does a good job of moving around the pocket and feels the rush relatively well. Average, yet sometimes surprising athleticism and can tuck and run when the pressure is too hot. Keeps his eyes upfield when flushed. Sometimes locks onto his primary read and needs to be able to work the entire field more consistently. Good intangibles and was the Orangemen's true leader as a senior. Short throwing motion when able to set his feet and deliver the ball.
Nassib's pro style offense experience makes him one of the few 2013 quarterback prospects who could feasibly come in and immediately challenge for a starting spot. Some project him as a first round pick, but he would be more accurately listed as a late-second to third round choice in the 2013 NFL Draft.
4 Comments | Add Yours
He is not a first round Quarterback but he has goo mechanics, a strong, accurate arm, and intelligent. He will go in the second round.
jzbills 12/31/12 02:04 PM
What are goo mechanics?
MonkeyInATank 01/21/13 07:47 PM
His arm stretches like goo when he is throwing.

Thanks for the above information.
Our hospital ,through the P & T committee will most likely to switch to Aloxi instead.
The maximum dose we administered now is 16mg IVPB as the FDA reported;and we will see whether the 12mg IVPB q4hr x3 doses (0.15mg/kg max. q4hx3 as per FDA) is practical or not for out patient chemotherapy
Please check the link below, I think the same adverse drug reaction,especially the cardio toxicity of this 5HT3 group of antiemetics will be extended to others in the future, so report any signs of side effect to your doctors is important.

How's your mother doing? I hope everything is going her way.
God bless.
Mom is using a drug named Em-Ex (Granisetron Hydrochloride) which worked for her in previous cycles, i hope it will have the same effect now with her persistent nausea and vomiting, she is not doing well as i told you about her CT results but her labs are going worse her bilirubin increased (total 2.5, direct 1.5) her abdominal distention increased (now she has moderate ascites), she has severe back pain (related to her right side) also she lost her appetite.
She started chemo yesterday (GEMOX) with modified dose of Gemzar, i asked her oncologist to add Tarceva but he thinks it is not a good idea (due to its results in trials) so finally we decided to postpone it till following her bilirubin level with chemo.
Something more her hepatologist asked for MRCP to detect is it obstructive jaundice or not? and if she will be a candidate for stenting?
I think the MRCP suggestion by your hepatologist is a very good choice.
I was surprised by the rising of your mother's bilirubin level. Was it caused by the radioembo because it blocks or damage also the bile ducts of the healthy parts of the liver too.and the bile of the health part of the liver has no place to go thru and thus back up and cause the bilirubin rise. That is why I think aMRCP is a good idea.
Please keep the faith in you , you and your sister are daughters that all of us wanted the most and nothing can replace the heart and soul of such caring and loving daughters for their parents. good luck and
God bless.
Fatema.....I am sorry to hear of the latest developments. The MRCP should shed clarify the issue of obstruction causing the excessive vomiting and pain your mother is experiencing. For palliative purposes you might also speak with the physician about gastric tubing, diuretics, and pain relief.
My heart is with you. Please, keep us posted.

Hello everyone. I am a new member from the Connecticut area. I have a semi completed R2D2 I built as a member of a the R2 builders group. Now that it is pretty close to being mobile I have been looking into what costume to build to take it to Cons and events. I have always loved Boba Fett and have been following this site for quite some time. I figured I would create an account and start a build sometime over the winter.
Here is a quick video of my droid. I am also Trevelyan on Astromech.net.

The Canisius volleyball team picked up its first win of the 2013 season with a three-set victory over Fairleigh Dickinson on Friday. The Golden Griffins won 25-14, 25-16, 26-24 in their first match of the Bucknell Invitational in Lewisburg, Pa.
Senior Emily Elek posted 12 kills, eight digs and a .391 attack percentage. Freshman Jacklyn Malusa had her second double-double of the season with 11 kills and 11 digs to go along with two blocks and two service aces. Junior Emily Litwin recorded a match-high 23 digs while Sydney Palka (18 assists) and Grace Streicher (19 assists) combined to have 37 assists on 42 Canisius kills.
"It is nice to get our first win of the season, and we continue to see glimmers of the team we can be," Canisius coach Cathy Hummel said. "Building confidence is always easier after a win, and I hope we can do just that."
Canisius broke open the first set with a 10-2 run to build a 19-9 lead. The Griffs posted three blocks in the run, with senior Roxanne Hernandez posting two blocks and two kills in the spurt that keyed Canisius to the first-set win. The Griffs closed out the second set by scoring 10 of the final 14 points of the set. A service ace, one of seven service aces for Canisius on the night, from Jessica Warner started the run while a kill from sophomore Lauren Siebert put Canisius ahead 2-0 in the match.
Fairleigh Dickinson (0-10) led for a majority of the third set, taking its biggest lead of the match at 23-16. The Griffs refused to yield the set and fought off five set points en route to winning the final eight points of the match and stealing the third set. Elek had three kills during the run while sophomore Rachel Kline posted two kills and sophomore Amy Osinski had two blocks in the stretch that led Canisius to its first win of the season.
Canisius (1-8) concludes play in the Bucknell Invitational on Saturday, when the Golden Griffins take on the host Bison at noon.
Notes: Canisius posted an attack percentage of .381 in the second set, its highest attack percentage in a set this season and also had a season-best .241 attack percentage in the match… Litwin had 10 digs in the third set while Streicher posted 11 assists in the third set… The Griffs played their seventh set this season that went to extra points… Canisius matched its season high with seven service aces and season low with three service errors.

Great looking helmet FP!
I want 2!!!!
I don't care if i have to sell the children, I WANT ONE
Only kidding about the children
That bucket is outstanding. It really is just what i have always dreamed of ever since i started making my own fibreglass copy.
I hate my bucket
If you ever sell these please let me know.
I don't care if I have to sell someone else's children I want one.
Anyone got a hammer
Fantastic! I want one!
I'll take two!
That's definitely a thing of beauty! Most impressive.
Very Very cool indeed!
Thanks soo much everyone, seriously.
I'm sorry for the lack of presence boys and girls! I'll be getting to the PM box this evening. I'm sure you all know how busy it is right now with the Jango project, Boba updates, ect, ect. I'm doin my best
Mirax - you're absolutely right about the shine. I know that a good number of Jango fans believe his noggin is practically a mirror. Which is why I was initially a little apprehensive about posting these, figuring that folks wouldn't get it. Thank you for pointing that out.
Things are happening ..... "GET 'R DONE" !!!!
And can I just state for the record that I, Lorenzo Salinas Cruz III, was the 1st (first) to "post" unquestionable interest in the helmet in your original thread FP...humbly stated of course your majesty!!!:thumbup
Soooo...maybe...hopefully...my utmost dream finally comes true...that I might still be at the top of the list???
I don't even beg that much to my wife
...plus my b-day is tomorrow, so I can jusify one by saying I don't want anything else!
Beautiful FP, just beautiful!

"I ordered these w/the phrase, "Bring Pampers for a chance to be pampered!", as an incentive for my guests to bring a pack of diapers along w/their gift for a chance to be entered into a drawing for a gift certificate to a local nail spa. It was the perfect finishing touch!"
"I loved the design of the card. I love the quality of the paper, very sturdy. Because of the glittery "look" on the card, I think I sort of expected to see some real glitter on the card...obviously that wasn't the case. I'm not disappointed though, really love it for my sister's shower. The mailing was a pain, only because I bought these right when postage increased and the post office didn't have the new 70c stamps that go with the square cards, so I had to put three stamps on there."
"Ordered for my daughter's first birthday's pretty in pink party. It is very dainty and elegant. Loved it! Quality is great as always."

Mickie DeMoss
When Mickie DeMoss returned to the Lady Vol sidelines in 2010-11, it was as if she had never left Rocky Top. The seamless transition back to Tennessee, after seven years away, reunited DeMoss with a university and women's basketball program she called home for 18 seasons as an assistant coach.
DeMoss and current Associate Head Coach Holly Warlick both joined the Lady Vols' coaching staff prior to the 1985-86 season. For the next 18 years, the coaching trio of Summitt, DeMoss and Warlick, posted six NCAA Championship titles (1987, 1989, 1991, 1996, 1997 and 1998) while advancing to 12 NCAA Final Fours. During this span, the Lady Vols had a 554-77 overall record (.878). In 2000, DeMoss was promoted to associate head coach at Tennessee.
DeMoss, who just finished her 34th season on the sidelines as a women's basketball coach, left the Lady Vols after the 2002-03 season to take the head coaching job at Kentucky. In four seasons, she guided the Wildcats to a 71-56 record including consecutive 20-win seasons (for the first time in 16 years) and three postseason appearances (one NCAA and two WNIT) for the first time in school history.
In 2005-06, DeMoss was named the SEC Coach of the Year, a first for a UK coach, as she guided the 22-9 Wildcats to the NCAA Tournament for the first time in seven seasons and punctuated the trip with an NCAA win. The breakout year also included a victory over No. 1-ranked Tennessee, 66-63, in front of a school-record crowd of 13,689 at Rupp Arena. It marked the first win over a top-ranked team in UK history. In 2006-07, Kentucky was 20-14 and advanced to the WNIT. That season, DeMoss' Cats attracted a school record attendance of 5,863 fans per game.
She elected to step aside as head coach at Kentucky in April 2007.
Her coaching hiatus ended when she accepted an assistant coaching position at the University of Texas in the summer of 2007. She was the Longhorns' top recruiter while also coaching the post game.
During her first stint at Tennessee, DeMoss developed a reputation as the top assistant in the women's game. A survey of the nation's NCAA Division I women's head basketball coaches tabbed her the top assistant in the country in 2000. She also garnered that same distinction from a 1998 The Women's Basketball Journal poll. While on Rocky Top, DeMoss was considered a great technical mind, floor coach and entertainer. Off the court, she was regarded as one of the best recruiters in the college game, year after year recruiting future All-SEC and All-America award-winners, while stockpiling rosters with the kind of players essential to winning national championships.
Some of DeMoss' most notable recruits at Tennessee include: Tonya Edwards, the 1987 Final Four MVP, Dena Head, the 1992 SEC Player of the Year, Chamique Holdsclaw, the 1996 and 1997 Final Four MVP, and Tamika Catchings, a four-time All-American.
Noted for her success coaching post players, DeMoss protégés have represented Team USA in every Olympic Games since 1992. That year, three DeMoss-coached centers helped lead the U.S. to a bronze medal in Barcelona, Spain.
Daedra Charles, who DeMoss shaped into a Wade Trophy winner in 1991 at UT, Tammy Jackson, who played for DeMoss during her first head coaching stint at Florida, and Vickie Orr, who she recruited to come to Auburn while an assistant coach there, each saw significant time in the post on the U.S. roster. The trio combined to average over 20 points per game.
In 1996, former Lady Vol Carla McGhee helped lead the United States to the gold medal in Atlanta, Ga., while Holdsclaw represented the Red, White and Blue at the 2000 Sydney Games, but was sidelined for the tournament with a stress fracture. The latest DeMoss pupil to have success on the international level, the versatile Catchings, captured gold medals for Team USA at the 2004 Olympics in Athens, Greece, and the 2008 Games in Beijing, China.
Prior to joining the Tennessee staff in 1985, DeMoss had been an assistant coach at Auburn University (1983-85), a head coach at the University of Florida (1979-83) and an assistant at Memphis State (1977-79).
DeMoss received her undergraduate degree in physical education from Louisiana Tech University in 1977, where she starred at point guard. She then received her master's degree in education at Memphis State University in 1979. She is a native of Tallulah, La.

10th Annual Siren Festival Lineup Announced
Over the past few weeks, it's been debated how exactly the 10th Anniversary of Siren Festival, the free and rad Coney Island music bash, lineup would be announced. Some suggested skywriting, fireworks, Lolla-style wordboards and the like. What was deemed best and most efficient, however, was a simple write-up on the Village Voice site...sponsors of the annual summer soirée.
Proving to be in the know on both the up-and-comers, along with the "hey, we've had 'em and we want 'em again" band types, this years fest pays homage to those bands who've already rocked the beach, while keeping current with a bill of bands on the rise.
Prior to this year's July day of fun and sun, no band has ever played Siren twice. That changes this year when Matt and Kim ('07) and Ted Leo ('03) hit the stage again, with new bill-mates Surfer Blood, Pains of Being Pure at Heart and Harlem. Additional acts and DJs will continue to be named as the festival date nears.
Siren Festival is rain or shine on July 17. (Anyone else there in 2006 when Scissor Sisters played in a pretty vicious thunderstorm? That was a fun day.)

I have finally posted the studio scale 15 wide jet pack Beta Version patterns, they are still a bit rough. I havent yet had the chance to cut and paste this baby together and I dont know when Ill get the chance in the next couple of months, but I didnt want to just sit on them so here they are.
If anyone gives them a try, let me know and Ill help work out any issues that might pop up.
Well I have finally converted the files to standard 8.5 X 11, it took 56 pages to capture it all. This is a PDF file that will print out full size, there are a few sheets in the begining that show how to pieces together the puzzle. One area that might cause some confussion are the panels that cover the side tanks. The covers needed two pages, but only a small section is on the second page. I will try to post a pic showing how the two sheets fit together.

283 Assembly
I am putting together my 65 283 after doing the machining in my class and having the final honing and balancing done by my instructor. I have the crank, pistons and cam installed. I will have the oil pump and fuel pump installed in the next few days along with the timing chain.
I have been reading up on what break in oil to use and my instructor recommended Joe Gibbs BR which I can get locally. I have the bearings and the cam coated with moly graphite assembly lube. I want to get the heads on the valve lashed but I have read that I should not pump up the lifters. I was going to prime the pump and the engine before installing the intake manifold. On a video I have the guy primed the engine before he put on the heads and push rods. He kept pumping until no more bubbles came out of the lifters. Isn't that pumping up the lifters? Also by priming the engine am I going to be wiping of the assembly lube off the cam lobes and bearings? I won't be starting the engine for some time but I want to get it ready as much as possible.
Do you have any recommendations how far I should take this before covering it up?
It is not strickly graphite. It is MOLY-graphite. Does that make a difference? I have read several articles that it was a good choice.
I have always used Crane 99004-1 Super Moly-disulfide paste on flat tappet cam lobes and distributor drive and driven gears. I have never had a cam go flat during the break in period and I used valve springs on different engines that had from 110-125 lb. seat and from 300-320 lb. open pressure. I crossed my fingers during the break in period on each engine. That was with Valvoline Racing oil that still had high zinc -phosphorus additives.
My present engine has hydraulic roller lifters and assembled it with Valvoline 10W-30 All Season with a bottle of GM Engine Oil Supplement (EOS) on the cam lobes, lifters and bearings. I assembled the engine with Crane Super Moly-disulfide paste on the distributor drive and driven gears only. We installed, primed and broke-in the engine within a week after it was assembled. The valve springs were set up with 144 lb. seat and 330 open pressure.
The stuff I used is similar to this Assembly Lube! - Chevy Forums at Super Chevy Magazine
I plan on letting the engine sit for some time before breaking it in. I don't want it to fall off and this stuff won't. Other cam lubes are like an oil which over a short period of time will fall off and leave part of the cam unprotected.
I use assembly lube on everything, and the cam mfg's lube on the cam. I think the Joe Gibbs oil is a good one. Never used it, but I've heard good. I use Brad Penn 30 wt breakin oil and Brad Penn 20-40 wt. oil after they are broke in.
I always prime my engines with the whole engine assembled, and just the valve covers off.
The problem with pumping up the lifters is just that, you can fill the gap between the plunger and inside bottom of the body to the point where the plunger is now pressed against the retainer clip on the top of the lifter body, you can see this. That means that you have to adjust the rocker just to where there is no lash in the push rod (((BUT))) I really want your attention!!! There can be NO adjustment made past that point (the instructions tell you to take up the lash and tighten the nut 1/2 maybe 3/4 additional turn) NO not if you pumped the lifter up. If you go beyond zero lash without the engine running there is no way for the lifter to bleed the oil that has the plunger and body hydraulically locked at their internal base clearance. Attempting to push into this zone risks bending the push rod or damaging the check valve or maybe even blowing out the bottoms of the plunger and/or the lifter body. This would be most similar to the kind of damage that can happen when you run a bolt into a blind hole that has a pool of oil at its base.
So if you know the lifters are pumped up and make a correction for that when you take up the lash just to zero or a little looser you're OK, but you then have to wait to make the final adjustment of 1/2 to 3/4 turn in beyond zero lash till the engine is running so the check valve in the lifter will be cycling and hydraulic lock up will be avoided.
When you don't pump up a new lifter (assume previously run lifters to be pumped up and treat them to no more adjustment than zero lash) when you otherwise go to zero lash with a dry lifter and then add 1/2 to 3/4 turn it sets the running clearance but the plunger is being held up from its bottom seat by a spring so it will always feel mushy if you really crank on the rocker or push rod you will feel this while making your first adjustment. This is OK! When the engine is prelubed with the valve springs pushing on the plunger the cavity under plunger will only fill to the space limit that exists depending on whether the lifter is on the heel or on a lobe. Any movement after you initially set the lash adjustment, which is done with each lifter on the heel of its cam lobe, once you rotate the still un-oil-pressurized lifter the plunger will set down onto a seat in the bottom of the body as the valve spring pushes it down and it will only fill with as much oil when pre-lubing without rotation of the crank as there is space under the seated plunger, therefore, it will not hydraulically lock. Rotating the engine cycles the lifter through the force of the valve spring this will exercise the check valve and it will fill the clearance chamber to raise the plunger till it feels valve spring pressure. This should then keep the push rod cup at the number of nut turns as that translates into clearance dimension. Given a fine threaded 3/8's bolt has 24 threads to the inch turning down 1/2 turn beyond zero lash will give a running clearance to the retainer of .0208 inch to a 3/4 turn of .0308 inch. If the lifter bleeds down to fast it won't hold this and it will tick, if it pumps up because its chasing lash added by "valve float" it will hold the valve off the seat by this amount.
Roller Camshafts:
The Comp Cams austempered ductile iron hydraulic roller camshafts are not parkerized. The ductile iron hydraulic roller camshaft are only coated with a corrosion inhibitor which should be washed off with a solvent before the camshaft is installed. The hydraulic roller camshaft lobes and engine bearings should only be lubed with motor oil containing GM 88862587 EOS or Permatex 81950. Electromagnetic parkerization is not required on ductile iron hydraulic roller camshafts and it cannot be used on high nickle-steel billet solid roller camshafts.
Flat tappet camshafts:
Parkerization is a zinc-phosphate electromagnetic conversion treatment that is only used on flat tappet camshafts in order to prevent corrosion during storage. Parkerization also effective at absorbing moly-disulfide lubricant until the engine can be started and the camshaft broke-in.
I think I got on the lifters. If they are pumped up as in an already running engine go to zero lash and no more. For dry lifters it is ok to go to zero an then add the 1/2 to 3/4 turn. They will then fill with the appropriate amount of oil without damaging any thing.
With that new knowledge, I set the lash on my 350 in my Chevy pickup to zero and then 1/2 turn. Should I go back a set it to zero and leave it? I don't have any bent push rods and it runs fine but not all that much power.
BTW Thanks for the information It is always good to get information like this that I have never read anywhere else. They don't tell you the correct method with the cam instructions. All I have ever heard was zero than zero to 1 1/2 turns.
I just tried to install my Cloyes roller timing chain. I have the sprocket on the crank and the #1 piston at TDC but the align marks won't line up. I have a chain set up that can be installed retarded, OE or advanced and it does not have a dot on the crank sprocket. The dot on the cam sprocket is to one side of center. If I move a tooth it goes to the other side but much farther of center. Is this going to be a problem? I wouldn't mind a little retarded for more low end torque but I would prefer it was straight up.
For the rest of you....
#1 cylinder and #6 cylinders are companion cylinders. They both come to TDC at the same time. When assembling a motor, line up the dot on the cam sprocket at 6PM and the dot on the crank sprocket at 12PM, so that they are right next to each other. With the cam in this position, #6 cylinder will be ready to fire. In order to get #1 cylinder ready to fire (so that you can run the distributor wiring correctly), you will want to turn the crankshaft one complete turn clockwise, so that the cam dot is at 12PM and the crank dot is at 12PM.
The crankshaft sprocket has three notches. There is one that is square on the top that is supposed to retard timing. One round on the top that is OEM and one that has a point on top of the notch that is for advanced. The instructions say that it will advance or retard 2 degrees using the either the retard or advance notch.
So when I set the number 1 to TDC number 6 should also be to TDC. If I am 180 out does number 6 not show up at TDC? I am installing the cam sprocket with number 1 at TDC is that correct? The cam dot is at 6 and since there is no crank dot I have it set for TDC. I will slip on the balancer and see if it puts the timing mark at TDC since it has to go over the same key.
Sorry for being confused this is my first build and I want to get it right.
I just went out and checked and the sprocket is on right and I did check to see if either side had a dot before I put it on and they did not. I figured no dot since it can be put on three ways. The instructions do however show a dot. I installed it square to retarded on the left and advance pointed top on the right.
Yes Use the round mark at 12 oclock on the crank gear. Make sure both 1 and 6 are at top dead center. I think there are 3 keyways on that gear. Right? make sure you are using the keyway with the same mark as the mark you are using to line up with the camshaft.
Again, don't worry about where any of the pistons are. The crank gear will only go on one way because of the key and the cam gear will only go on one way if you align the dots right next to each other. Once you have the crank gear on at 12PM and the cam gear on at 6PM and have the whole mess buttoned up, rotate the crankshaft one complete revolution clockwise so that you will then be ready to drop the distributor in and run the plug wires.
#6 and #1 are companion cylinders. The piston comes to the top of the bore on both of them at the same time. The difference is that when you have the crank gear at 12PM and the cam gear at 6PM, #6 is ready to fire and #1 is on overlap. Having the crank gear at 12PM and the cam gear at 12PM will put #1 at firing position and #6 at overlap. That's how you want it to run the wiring.
One note about pumped up lifters. They are pumped up after the engine runs, right? If they would cause damage if you adjusted them when pumped up, then the valves could never be readjusted after the engine ran the first time.
This isn't the case, because the lifter bleeds down from the pressure of the valve spring. If you doubt this, zero lash a pumped up lifter w/the lifter on the base circle of the cam. Add a turn of preload to it and feel how tight the rocker arm is. Go have a Coke. Come back and see if the rocker arm is still as tight as it was right after adding preload.
BTW, I'm the one guy left in the world who still pumps up his hydraulic lifters in a can of oil. I have my reasons for doing this, it's not out of ignorance. I have done this for around 40 years. Just saying.
The problem I am having is that the crank gear does not have a dot so I am assuming the correct position to have it set is with #1 at TDC and then align the dot on the cam gear so it is at 6.
