You did an awesome job with this Tirann, but unfortunatly Woot has a PacMan ban in the derbys. It ill probably get rejected, but if it does, I would just pick a different game from that era and re-enter.
I definitely didn't see that when I submitted this shirt. I got the idea for an etch-a-sketch shirt and I thought it would be perfect and easy for a red shirt. Afterward, I was trying to decide what I wanted to put inside the frame (because a blank etch-a-sketch is kind of male), and I thought it would be funny to use Escher. I've always been an Escher fan, and this pencil sketch is well-suited to the look of the toy, and I thought it'd be funny to have a drawing within a drawing. It was only until I was trying to think of a title that I realized the pun.

When I was trying to figure out what to put in the frame (a blank etch-a-sketch) is kind of boring, I wanted to do an iconic piece of art because I thought that would appeal to more people. I've always been an Escher fan, I thought this pencil sketch would be well suited to the way the toy's drawings look, and I thought it was funny to have a sketch within a sketch within a sketch. It wasn't until I was trying to think of a title that I realized the pun of "Escher A Sketch," and then it was too good not to use. I did not mean any plagiarism, I was just unlucky enough not to come up with the idea first.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
All the theoretical discussion going on here is fun, but I think this gets to the meat of the original question:
The general consensus among folks who seem to know is that installing the cam 4 degrees advanced from straight up is usually optimal for street applications, and - as mentioned - most street performance cams are ground this way. Most. And most timing sets are made so that installing dot-to-dot doesn't give any additional advance/retard. Most.
But then, the cam grind could be off a bit, or the timing set could have an advance or retard built in that you're unaware of. Or you could have an adjustable timing set and not be sure how to set it. This is why we "degree" cams when installing them. To make sure they're installed in the intended phase relative to the crankshaft.
FWIW - I've always heard that some of the blame for low-compression emissions engines being dogs in the 70's and 80's was because of retarded (at least relative to what we consider normal, i.e. 4 degrees advanced) cam timing.
In general - if all other aspects of the engine are supportive of the change - retarding the cam pushes the power curve farther up the rpm range (moving valuable power out of the lower rpms), while advancing the cam slides the power closer to the bottom end (due to closing the intake valve sooner, letting the engine build more cylinder pressure, i.e. torque).
|Dirty Biker
Well we were talking about putting the reeds in the head next to each intake port on the head I think, thats the only way it would work I reckon. As far as them being an obstruction in the air flow, (compared to no reeds at all) that may be true, but at higher rpms when they are no longer needed, they would simply be open all the time so it would be a matter of having a big enough reed cage to flow the cfms needed for the hp desired. My 38 mm carb on my husky for example could theoretically flow a whole bunch, not sure exactly sure how much and at what vacuum but if each cylinder had a reed cage like a rm250 suzuki that could make 57 horsepower, that would be about 456 horses right? To flow more you could have a reed cage with 6 reeds in it per cylinder (my husky reed cage only has four reeds) and get more flow that way. There may be bigger reeds that would be better I dunno. Its all just kinda a new idea I guess! Anyways for sure at least it would let you run that long duration cam without the reversion at low rpms and still have the high rpm magic once the intake runner inertia kicked in at higher rpm. Kinda the best of both worlds I guess.
As far as handling a four inch piston, I am pretty sure the positive(reverse) intake pressure on a bigger piston is not that much more than the two stroke motor with no camshaft at all. If it is any credit to this, my husky motor has nearly a 3.5 inch piston. The reed valves they make for these motors are made out of some crazy amazing stuff, they can go for lots and lots of miles "flapping in the breeze" or whatever you wanna call it. The ones I took out of it when I upgraded to boysen dual stage reeds looked like the original ones from 1981 according to Andy at the husky shop I go to.
Between this reed stuff and the spanny chambers we are talking one crazy motor here... Crazy!!!!!
Flow rate of reed valves,----
I like the reed valve idea, but feel that locating them between manifold&head port would be more effectual, however, I do not know of any " reeds" that could control up to a 4in pistons airflow or pressure "needs"
|Straight up timing is defined as when the lobe separation angle and the intake centerline angle are the same. Most racing cams are ground with no advance in them, so if they are installed "dot to dot", that is straight up: a 110 lobe separation cam will be installed at 110 intake centerline. Most aftermarket street cams are ground with 4 degrees advance. If you have a aftermarket street cam with 110 degrees lobe separation angle and put it in dot to dot, your intake centerline will be 106 degrees. You would have to put in a 4 degree bushing and retard it back to 110 degrees intake centerline to be straight up, even though dot to dot is what everyone thinks is automatically straight up timing. It is dependant on how the cam is ground.
I really think cam of the future is no cam
Either solenoid actuated or pnematic ,a La formula 1.
I believe we will all see that n also very high comp ratios just as soon as they figure out how to alloy ceramics into metals,50:1 on gas engines probably.
|Look at many of the new cars. A lot of them are using variable cam timing They can vary the timing for different operational conditions. A lot of it is to help make horsepower as well as help with keeping down emmisions.Older cars like my wifes camry had a centrifical advance on the cam drive pulley.You can feel it pulling at about 3500 rpm and up. (passing gear LOL)
When an engine is running there is chaos inside the intake due to.
Intake dilution from exhaust,intake draw through to xhaust,flow reversal in intake,dry manifold as driver lets off throttle to go into corners,wet flow in manifold(small rivers of fuel).
I know how both cranckase charged and rootes scavanged 2 stroke work.
I just dont know how you would hold reeds inside a manifold so that they wouldnt create all kinds of other problems like interfering with the flow etc.
I think just about the only way to get rid of some of the chaos is to have forced induction and then has to be more than 10 psi or so.
Just got back home today.
|Dirty Biker
Now that is what I am talking about!!! Yes that would be easy to do!! The reed valve cages I work with on the motocross bikes flow alot, and by alot, I mean the carb on my husky 430 is 38mm. It is actually small, the carb on a modern ktm 250 is about the same size but my bike is older and is designed for more tourque at a lower rpm. I still pray before riding it, and yes sir my dog still rides in the back. That equals 1.5 inches for us americans. We could put one on each intake port and run as much intake duration as you need for the power you are after yet still have good low end tourque, thats the whole point on the two strokers and it works just fine! Tech Inspector, you just made my day.
|Dirty Biker
So to make the cam straight up then, like if I want to put a stock factory 262 cam in my 283 motor (which is what I think I am going to do becasuse it gives more power than the stock 283 cam on almost every range with stock two barrel manifold, the single hump heads, and 1.5 inch i.d. 32" length headers which is what I have to work with here) I want to degree the cam in so that the overlap of the intake and exhaust valves, that they are open the same amount I mean, at tdc? If so that is good to know. If not then I misunderstand.
Forgive me for my last post, but I am very confident that I could make expansion chambers that would work with a four stroke engine with the right camhaft timing. I realize that you may be unfamiliar with two smokers, but I am very sure that you can grasp the concept of the expansion chamber. The point is increasing the volumetric efficiency of a naturally aspirated engine far far above the swept volume during a narrow rpm range and with the least amount of moving parts possible. Just like forced induction, but with no parasitic drag or bearings to replace or lag etc. Again I appologize and realize this may be the wrong thread, or even wrong forum, to propose such ideas. I believe it would work, tho you would maybe need a cvt transmission of some kind to get the power to the ground and keep the engine at the right rpm.
FWIW, Although two stroke engines have no camshaft, they still have intake and exhaust events just like a four stroke, the overlap where the intake and exhaust are both open (and connected to each other via the combustion chamber) is used with the expansion chamber to create more power. During the opening of the exhaust port, the pulse of hot expanding gasses travelling into the megaphone exhaust chamber creates a vacuum which (scavenges?) draws out exhaust gasses but also fresh fuel air mix because of that overlap. Then the intake event ends and the intake port closes. The exhaust event still continues tho. There is a sharper angled reverse megaphone where the end of the megaphone would be that reflects that energy back into the engine, forcing that fuel air mix that it drew out previously back into the exhaust port before it closes. When it works, it works really really well. Scares you half to death going from 22 horse power at say 2500 rpm on a 250 cc bike motocross bike to like 57 horse power in the blink of an eye at 3000 rpm, only 500 rpms later, when the set of events lines up perfect. That is the best I can explain it on short notice. Plenty of good reading on it tho out there, the expansion chamber was invented around 1961 by a german dirty rotten stinking biker dude.
Expansion chambers were first designed by East German Walter KaadenWalter during the cold war. They first appeared in the west on Japanese motorcycles after an East German motorcycle race in the 1961 Swedish Grand Prix. He hid the blueprints under his racing leathers and defected during the race by riding off the track and claiming asylum. He did not finish the race. He later provided the blueprints to Japan's Suzuki....
Thanks Topwrench
im with u .....cell just gave up the ghost talkin to phone co,,
u brg up gud point n i wanna answr but tlkn with fone co.
I'll have to think about this some before I give a response. In the meantime, I'll give you something to think about that I have considered doing but never got around to.
One of the problems with a 4-cycle motor is the balancing act between closing the intake valve either too early or too late to take max advantage of the incoming column of air/fuel mixture. Close it too early and you lose power from a reduced charge entering the cylinder. Close it too late and you lose power because the ascending piston pushes some of it back up the intake tract and out the carb throat.
What if a guy cobbled up an intake manifold that used 2-cycle reed valves at the head ports? I mean, leave everything as is except just add the reed valves between the carb and head port. Seems to me that this would optimize the whole mess. What do you guys think?
Thinking about it further, you would want some pretty agressive intake timing on the cam so as not to limit the effectiveness of the reeds.
I knew somebody like Tek insp. would know it.
Phone got answered!
I dont know what you mean Drty B.??? whats the point?
@ tech inspector
I start my cam timing process at t.d.c. xhaust stroke and go from there
I think the most important event is the point at which"crossover" occurs,this is the point at which both valves are open the same amount,from the factory I find most cams when installed at factory specs this point occurs from 5 deg atdc to 5 deg btdc.
Please remember Im not drag racer,just round tracks.Well...... oval anyway!
|Dirty Biker
You guys are very smart, and I would like an opinion on a crazy cam idea I have. If it is too crazy then I understand. ready? here goes: What if a cam is made that duplicates the intake and exhaust duration of a known good two stroke engine, like a cr500 honda motocross bike, only for a sbc, then 8 suitably sized expansion chambers are fitted to the engine.
Would these spanny chambers not have a similiar effect as on the two stroke engine?
That is to say, drawing the fuel/air mixture out of the cylinder while both valves are open then with the timed pulse of the expansion chamber pushing it back in at the last second before the exhaust port is closed, and because the intake valve closes earlier than the exhaust valve it could thereby increases the amount of fuel air mix in the cylinder than the piston actually could draw in.
Organic turbo boost.
I love two cycle motors sooo much because of this. The power comes on all at once at a certain rpm largely based on header pipe length but who cares.. It gets your adrenaline pumping and puts grey hairs in your beard and thats ok with me. Castor oil keeps you regular too.
I have been wanting to ask this question to somebody for about 15 years. I don't know any body who could even understand what I am talking about on this thing except maybe you guys.
A good expansion chamber design provides the equivelent of about 7 psi boost they say, it could be like a turbo with no moving parts if it worked... I realize two stroke engines are not the specialty of this forum but I wouldn't be surprised if you guys had already thought this very same thing before.
Im out there I know, sorry.

So cool seeing the armor scaled down, but still looking so rad. Those are some pretty cute gauntlet darts
Can't wait to see this all come together!!
Ok the more I look at that pic of it all laid out the more I am confused.
Is that a codpiece or a buttpiece?
Call me daft but I'd rather get it right before someone calls me out in public :hmm:
The piece in the bottom of the picture is the cod piece the next part up is the ab section.
Looks great so far!
Out of curiosity, where did you get the gauntlets from? They look a little smaller than a lot of the ones I've seen around.
Got my jetpack today!
The kitchen scissors are just to show scale. I was going to use a ten pound note but figured hey most of you use dollars not pounds so not much point. I realise you all probably have different kitchen scissors to me too, but hey I have already taken the pic and wrapped it back up now.
Ta dah!
And my wookiee braids
You've got some really nice pieces. I can't wait to see this all together!
Holy **** I just added up my total cost so far
Just over 2k (GBP)
**** paypal fees.
I imagine shipping to the UK would have been the big one.
No worries, I'll be lucky if I get out under $2500.
Great work with the Jetpack amazing...................
Ok I have searched for 'helmet liner', 'helmet interior', 'helmet lining'...
Am I just so tired I have completely missed it? What do people use? I swear I have seen knee pads used but I can't find the thread now
People will cut foam from knee pads and glue them in place. There really is no specific pattern to it - just whatever is comfortable for your head. I've also seen people use hard hat inserts.
Whatever you use, make sure you leave enough space for your electronics.

Are you trying to make me feel ancient? "The first phone in the UK to bear the Sony brand"
I don't think so, not unless alzheimer's is kicking in.
True, I remember Sony handsets being sold in the UK over a decade ago. The J5 with its natty jog-wheel interface was a highlight.
"The first SMARTphone in the UK to bear the Sony brand", perhaps?
" (instant TV playback is go.. once you buy a microHDMI cable)"
Mine came with one in the box (& a screen protector).
Drop in price already ? Wasn't it £450 on release ?
I have to echo some the conclusions of the review with regards to the screen - The viewing angles are very poor. Colour and contrast shift dramatically if viewed even slightly off centre.
However, I believe that it actually has a sharper screen than the 4S in terms of DPI (342 vs 326 of the IPhone)
Don't really understand why not having expandable storage is such an issue? This seems to be a recurring theme with TR's smartphone reviews.
This phone has 32Gb RAM internally, connectivity and syncing to Googles cloud services + third party cloud sources. Would someone with a phone as advanced as this one, really miss the use use memory cards or am I missing something?
Sony Xperia S seems nice to me overall.Except some silly problems.its light and handy but now its time to watch out samsung galaxy s3 nothing is gonna compare with this.You should check out all updates about this.Thank you.
hiya, i just got my Sony Xperia S as an upgrade on Tmobile. have been using the phone the last couple of days. i know it was mentioned in the review about the fit and finish of the phone and there were slight panel gaps. to be honest they arent that bad and it doesnt detract from the quality feel of the handset. the screen is outstanding and even though the review claims the Xperia is slightly on the heavy side i actually feel it has a nice weight to it and sits comfortably in the hand. mine also came with a bundled HDMI cable and a screen protector. so far the phone is very responsive and doesnt lag running multiple apps or playing HD content. 32GB is plenty of space and i am not missing the micro SDHC slot at all. the touch screen responsiveness is very good and the colour reproduction of the screen is lovely. photos and videos really pop on this screen. ill need to use it for more time to find out if it has any quirks but so far its a solid 9/10 from me. a great handset and you wont regret getting it. :)
At first you will be impressed by this phone, however after
having it just a short while I started to find problems arising everywhere. Let
me categorise -
- The Camera, although being 12MP is awful at taking a
picture with a lot of depth/distance. The detail quality lacks significantly.
It is brilliant however for close-up shots. They advertise a quick start up for
the camera, though I never experienced such a luxury, it takes more around a
minute. Focussing this camera is a huge pain.
- The battery, due to the immense power all the buggy
features consume, this phone will not even last a day. Even if left in standby
in your pocket, the battery will drain far too quickly. Another HUGE drawback
is that the battery is not replaceable… At least not without removing half the
phone and exposing all its inner workings.
- The design is uncomfortably big. Texting is awkward and although
the corners are rounded they still poke into your hands and eventually that can
start to hurt. There are very VERY few cases available for this phone so in
terms of extra protection to save one breaking the massive screen, it's quite
difficult. Plus the addition of a case makes the phone even bigger than it
needs to be.
- The touch screen sensitivity is poorly calibrated. Before
you think it, it's not because I'm trying to use it wrong, it's just very
uneven and doesn't respond well, especially at certain angles I've found with
- Phone often cuts of mid-call. Sometimes refuses to let me
call someone.
- The gallery and the text messages often open saying there
is nothing in them, and take around a minute (depending on how much is in
there) to actually make your pictures or messages appear.
- A REALLY ANNOYING ISSUE is the back of the phone
CONSTANTLY falls off. Considering there is nothing you can do under that cover
except put your sim card in, it comes of stupidly easily. I can simply pick the
phone up off the table and the back will fall off etc.
- Certain apps and a lot of games overload this phone. The
Dual-Core is nothing special at all and almost everything that requires any
type of decent graphical processing crashes or lags badly. Often the simplest
programs crash such as internet, Instagram. IT WILL OFTEN CLOSE SOMETHING MID
- With headphones, the phone sometimes decides to play music
from the speaker instead which is awkward if you are in a public place. And
then you'll rush to silence it and it'll freeze up so you'll end up sitting on
it or snapping it in half with rage.
OVERALL I would highly recommend you look elsewhere for a
phone regardless of what you may think, this phone will cause more problems for
you than you could imagine. There are more problems I could name right now but
I think I've said enough for you to realise the truth about the performance of
this phone.

One of the benefits of being a Carolina basketball player is the vast array of resources available in the hoops world.
As usual for a Tar Heel pondering a leap to the next level, P.J. Hairston leaned on head coach Roy Williams to provide feedback from the NBA on Hairston's professional prospects. But the sophomore from Greensboro also went straight to the source for a first-hand report on what it takes to play at the game's highest level.
With some free time in the car two weeks ago, Hairston called former teammate John Henson, a rookie with the NBA's Milwaukee Bucks.
"We talked for about 30 minutes," Hairston said. "He basically told me that it's a different level. He said they're a lot stronger, and they're not necessarily faster, but you can tell they're grown men. He told me the most important thing was to make sure I felt like I was ready for whatever decision I was going to make."
Eventually, of course, that decision was to stay in Chapel Hill for another season. That means the next time he sees Henson--who begins NBA playoff competition on Saturday against the defending world champion Miami Heat--it will be on the floor of the Smith Center in the annual summer pickup games between current players and professional alumni.
The current Tar Heels have already begun offseason conditioning and pickup, and it was in one of those games that Hairston suffered a reoccurrence of the hand injury he sustained in the ACC Tournament quarterfinals against Florida State. The sophomore from Greensboro persevered after that bloody injury and played the rest of the season with his hand heavily wrapped.
In the month since the Tar Heel season ended in Kansas City, Hairston had slowly worked his way back to health--or so he thought. He had the stitches removed from that injury and eventually thought he'd be safe to try playing without his hand wrapped.
That lasted only one day before the injury reopened during a pickup game.
"I felt it as soon as it happened," Hairston says. "I looked at my hand and it was split back open. It wasn't as strange as it was last time. I was just like, 'OK, it happened again.'"
And then six more stitches happened again. Hairston had the second set of stitches removed Wednesday, so he'll be able to cautiously work his way back into the usual pickup rotation.
As those games progress, it's remarkable how much of a transition Hairston has made in just a year. Last summer at this time, he was coming off a miserable shooting season and struggling to identify a role. This summer, he's the player who was Carolina's leading scorer in 2013 and one of the two junior cornerstones of what should be an experienced club--Roy Williams could potentially start a senior (Leslie McDonald), a pair of juniors (Hairston and James Michael McAdoo) and a point guard who started 34 games (Marcus Paige)--in 2014.
Next year's roster should include players who started a combined 108 games this year, and Hairston played well enough as a sophomore that even his teammates are excited to see how his game might develop as a junior.
"P.J. is going to be great next year," Paige says. "When his game opened up and he got more opportunities, you saw what he could do at the end of this year. It's great that we're going to have P.J. and James Michael back to develop their games and lead us next year."
It's worth remembering that Hairston knew his game would evolve this summer, and he clearly had the option of letting that progress take place under the tutelage of the NBA. Instead, he made the conscious decision to do that work in Chapel Hill. After multiple conversations with Williams over the past month, Hairston has a few key areas of emphasis over the summer.
As a freshman, nearly 70 percent of his field goal attempts were three-pointers. As a sophomore, that figure dipped to 60 percent. His goal is for his offense to be even more diversified as a junior.
"I want to be more of a slasher," Hairston says. "I don't want people to know how to guard me. I want to confuse defenses because they are worried that I can either shoot it or get to the rim. I want to work on more of a midrange game, and I want to improve my ballhandling."

Scene Info
Tag Adams has no idea what kind of trouble he's about to find when not one but two big-dicked Hispanic boys (Mario Ortiz and Rick Gonzales) approach looking for service. If you like your meat big and brown (and we mean BIG), this filthy three-way will leave you breathless. Adams is immediately put to work on his knees as the two tag team his mouth with their giant pingas. We're still trying to figure out how he fit both of their cocks in his mouth at the same time! Mario and Rick really get off on hearing the little white boy gag on their horsecocks. Unable to hold off any longer, Mario shoots a big spray of white jizz all over the black floor. Then Gonzales decides he wants Tag all to himself. He orders Mario to get the fuck away from 'his bitch,' then begins to punish-fuck Tag. The camera takes you from position to position until Tag is rolled back onto his neck with his butt straight up in the air. On a scale of 1-10, this fuck's a 15! Gonzales shoots the biggest, thickest white load onto his upturned white ass, causing Tag to dump straight into his own open mouth. Order the Two Disc Set from HotHouse.com and you'll get the filthy scene continuation where Tag's cum-covered face and butt gets hosed off in a watersport scene that's so wrong it's right to the point.

The United States Army denies reports that soldiers who were stationed at a nuclear research center in Baghdad were exposed to harmful levels of radiation. Since 2003, more than 750 soldiers have been guarding the Tuwaitha Nuclear Research Center which is 12 miles south of Baghdad. Army officials claim those who received measurable levels of radiation were found to be within US safety standards. However, Sgt. Jason Boatright send an email in August suggesting they had been exposed to radiation at levels not appropriate for health and safety. Boatright met with Col. Mark Melanson, chief of radiation safety, but he also gave interviews to a Memphis TV station in which he stated: "I noticed the guys would end up with rashes. Some had headaches, joint pain, nausea, vomiting, gastrointestinal issues. We realized we were exposed to radiation." Colonel Melanson insists Boatright is the only soldier who ever complained about radiation.
The US Army has announced that any soldier who was stationed at the nuclear facility should contact medical authorities or go to a VA hospital if discharged if they have any indication of radiation poisoning. Hopefully, no one else will be identified who encountered medical problems at the nuclear site.

What happens when you eat an apple? The answer is vastly more complex than you imagine.
Every apple contains thousands of antioxidants whose names, beyond a few like vitamin C, are unfamiliar to us, and each of these powerful chemicals has the potential to play an important role in supporting our health. They impact thousands upon thousands of metabolic reactions inside the human body. But calculating the specific influence of each of these chemicals isn't nearly sufficient to explain the effect of the apple as a whole. Because almost every chemical can affect every other chemical, there is an almost infinite number of possible biological consequences - and that's just from an apple.
Nutritional science, long stuck in a reductionist mindset, is at the cusp of a revolution. The traditional gold standard of nutrition research has been to study one chemical at a time in an attempt to determine its particular impact on the human body. These sorts of studies are helpful to food companies trying to prove there is a chemical in milk or prepackaged dinners that is "good" for us, but they provide little insight into the complexity of what actually happens in our bodies or how those chemicals contribute to our health.
In The China Study, T. Colin Campbell revolutionized the way we think about our food with the evidence that a whole food, plant-based diet is the healthiest way to eat. Now, in Whole, he explains the science behind that evidence, the ways our current scientific paradigm ignores the fascinating complexity of the human body, and why, if we have such overwhelming evidence that everything we think we know about nutrition is wrong, our eating habits haven't changed.
Whole is an eye-opening, paradigm-changing journey through cutting-edge thinking on nutrition, a scientific tour de force with powerful implications for our health and for our world.
©2013 T. Colin Campbell (P)2013 Blackstone Audio, Inc.
"Whole makes a convincing case that modern nutrition's focus on single nutrients has led to mass confusion with tragic health consequences. Dr. Campbell's new paradigm will change the way we think about food and, in doing so, could improve the lives of millions of people and save billions of dollars in health care costs." (Brian Wendel, creator and executive producer of Forks over Knives)
"There are very few material game-changers in life, but this book is truly one of them. The information herein - backed up by extraordinary peer-reviewed science - has the power to halt and reverse disease, give you energy you've never known, and put you on a path of transformation in just about every positive way. Read it and get ready to soar." (Kathy Freston, New York Times best-selling author of The Lean)
"In this provocative book, T. Colin Campbell, based on his long career in experimental research and health-policy making, uncovers how and why there is so much confusion about food and health and what can be done about it. The China Study revealed what we should eat; Whole answers why. Read and enjoy; there's something here to inspire and offend just about everyone." (Dean Ornish, MD, founder and president, Preventive Medicine Research Institute, Sausalito)
"Not what you think it is"
I was disappointed with this book. I eat a plant based diet for the most part. I was hoping for a book about rethinking nutrition and the science behind the need for change in the American diet. I wanted facts about why we need to change the way we think about food and the kind of foods we choose to eat. What I found instead was angry finger pointing. Much of the book was spent discussing how drug companies and the food industry and the allopathic health care world are wrong, terrible, and out to get us all. This point was dragged out in such a repetitive manner that it was beyond tiresome. I agree with the author that much is wrong with the system--but simply repeating that message doesn't fix the problem. This book felt like a missed opportunity to get an important message out there. To get people thinking and learning about how to improve their health by changing the way they eat. If that is the information you are looking for I'd try another book.

"Debunking the Science of Nutrition"
If you go into this book thinking it's about the whole food diet and its benefits, you're going to be disappointed. On the other hand, if you read this to learn about the dysfunctionality in the field of nutrition as well as the evils of Big Pharma, you'll be more inclined to enjoy it.
It would have been great to have included more (much more!) on the benefits of a whole food diet. More case studies. Some concrete data would be great. There's a lot they could have done here to create a positive light on a whole food diet that might be motivating and I'm certain highly interesting.
Don Hagen did a fine job with narration. Nothing about the narration distracted from the content, and I don't think his intonation conveyed any bias that wasn't actually present in the context of the story.
I would condense the anti-pharma, anti-medicine content of the book (which was the majority of it) into a single chapter, and emphasized the necessity to maintain reasonable skepticism when dealing with medical or pharmaceutical issues.
The premise of the book is interesting. Perhaps just re-titling the book "Rethinking the Science of Nutrition" would have been sufficient by subtly adjusting the reader's expectations. I would have loved more pro-whole diet information, examples, case studies, and that sort of thing, even if it is anecdotal.
However, as it stands, the tone of the book is overwhelmingly negative and ends up coming across as mostly conspiratorial, which is sad given the potential of the topic.
"A frontal assault on nutritional 'science'"
This book reiterates the findings of Campbell's The China Study that concludes a whole food, plant based (WFPB) diet significantly reduces illnesses caused by the standard Western diet. However, Campbell directly attacks the Medical-Agricultural-Academic complex as committing fraud on the American people by seeking maximum profits through largely ineffective and harmful medical solutions.
This book supports the premise that US medicine is purely a profit driven industry that will not acknowledge nutrition as the single most effective cure for most of the illnesses that prevail in America today. Campbell supports his conclusions that many doctors and medical researchers are in the pockets of Big Pharma and other ancillary industries that benefit from the status quo. With personal anecdotes and other studies, including The China Study, he questions industry-funded research projects which are skewed to reach the most profitable conclusions. Alarmingly, the medical industry itself is the third leading cause of death, behind heart disease and cancer, but this statistic is ignored by US government authorities.
He also attacks the dietary supplement industry and genetic researchers as largely favoring a "reductionist" versus a "holistic" view of health and nutrition. It is profitable to sell a drug. It is not profitable to sell a lifestyle based on eating plants.
This book is an excellent sequel to The China Study and expands on an increasingly popular theme that rightly contests the validity of what we're being told and sold. Books such as Wrong by David Freedman and Bad Pharma by Ben Goldacre are also excellent Audible selections in this genre.

I am so excited by this book that I can't wait to finish it before I spill out my excitement on paper. This is a great read whether you think you're interested in the topic or not. In the same way Steven kings "on writing" is a great read, regardless of your interest in writing.( If you haven't read that one- get it now it will completely alter your impression of the guy)
First off let me tell you where I'm coming from- Though ive been about 50lbs overweight for the last 10 yrs ( due to chronic pain and being bedridden etc. ), I've never "dieted". I've never believed in "dieting" I've always known dieting is a suckers game. Nutrition on the other hand is something that I have some interest in- but the constant circling, conflicting battles of good for you- not good puts me off. so When questions of nutrition arise I just use common sense to guide my decisions, that is- unless I find a book like this one, or china study.
2 years ago I came across the china study book by the same author and after looking that one up on the net, I was very impressed, so I bought a copy for my wife who is borderline diabetic and struggles with her diet and so is in particular need of concrete nutritional info. This I thought was a ray of light and truth in the diet-nutrition Disneyland..Then by chance I came across this book in the 3 for 2 credit sale. After listening to the sample I was captivated. I bought it and started listening to it right away. I was enthralled not just by the research or his credentials,or- the message but the writing itself ,its a very enjoyable listen. Its written as a grounded narrative and the narration itself is a perfect fit to the material which added a lot to thoroughly enjoying a book that is far from my usual reading fare.
Im not going to get into the specifics of the book- what I will say is that it is all VERY compelling and certainly worth looking into on a deeper level. Considering how far our culture's overall diet has fallen, it would take a GIANT leap of change for most if not all of us to embrace and to fully implement the changes to our diet proposed by Colin Campbell. Personally I am SO-SO far from anything like this diet that the change for me would be as radical as well.....anything I can think of, but if he is right -and I think he is, it would not just mean living longer or disease free, it would mean a quality of living change that I suspect many of us have never known- physically AND mentally. It would certainly be interesting to look up the statistics and the experiences of those that have completely embraced this diet ( "diet" in this context naturally inferring ... you know what im saying)
I rarely give 5 stars-or I at least try to save that status for something truly deserving. In this case I think the info is so important it merits a 5 star rating.Very persuasive- Very important-Very well written and Very enjoyable.
"Must Read"
Another must read from Dr. Campbell. It saddens me that his life saving research hasn't been embraced by the medical community, government or the media. Because of his previous book, The China Study, I am a healthy, fit and no longer live in fear of dying of the diseases of my parents. I encourage everyone to listen both of Dr. Campbell's books. Your life will never be the same.

"Good, but Gaping Holes in the Main Premise"
I like the thought provoking insight that uncovers hidden agendas within the mainstream organizations and thought processes. It's the mainstream thought process that has led us to all the health and environmental issues that currently exist.
This isn't a novel.
His cadence is a little slow but methodical and somewhat soothing vocal tonality. If the slow pace doesn't bother you, it seems to work for the content.
Good, but left unanswered questions.
While I applaud Mr. Campbell's extensive career and efforts to uncover truth's related to health, medicine, nutrition and disease, it seems to me there are some gaping holes in his conclusions that a plant based diet is the only healthy diet for any human anywhere on the planet. Just from a purely logical point of view this raises some immediate questions in my mind. For example, should I assume that the only way an Eskimo could possibly be healthy is by eating plant based food. That is likely not feasible, and the Eskimo would likey not make it through the winter on that diet. One of the best books I have read on health and Nutrition is by Weston Price and is called Nutrition and Physical Degeneration. It clearly indicates that healthy primitive people living in different locations all over the world eat different foods and this does not always mean that animal products are excluded. In fact in many cases animal based food was integral to the diet and health. I agree that most people should consume more plant based food and less animal based food, but I think that it would be somewhat reductionist thinking to only examine one group of healthy people (e.g. Rural China) and conclude that their diet is the only healthy diet for everyone located anywhere. I think we need to look to nature and our own common sense and rational for guidance. Although, technology makes it possible to consume an extraordinary variety of food that is produced all over the world, this is probably not what nature intended. I think our diet should be more locationally and seasonally based upon native food sources. Unfortunately humans have been extremely effective in disrupting the natural order of life on this planet and natural is becoming a rare commodity. It is a positive sign that more people are becoming aware that the fate of human beings is inherently tied to nature and are becoming alarmed enough to begin taking action. I believe Mr Campbell is one of those individuals.
"Should have been titled "Reductionism! Grrr!"..."
What is reductionism? This book is going to tell you in a long and scathing rebuke. I don't disagree with the author when he talks about reductionism's bountiful and massive shortcomings. I totally agree that there are huge corporate and financial interests that have monetary profit as a primary goal rather than human health. Yes, the system is broken, and there is a need to lay out that broken-ness in a clear and understandable way. But... 97% of this book is taken up with telling me why the current system is BAD. The author had a golden opportunity to explain why a whole foods plant based diet is the answer, why its better than the Standard American Diet, and why it might actually cure cancer. But it felt like every time he might launch into it, he just repeated that that's what he found in his decades long research career. No real evidence to back up his claims. I guess we're just supposed to trust him like he's telling us not to with those he speaks out against.
He also perpetrates many of the same cheats that other vegan authors use when decrying a meat-based diet. The meat industry can't defend the environmental and social justice complaints against it, I totally agree with the author on these. But...
When he's arguing that we could model our diet on that of our closest animal relatives, he says that chimps and gorillas are herbivores. Chimps aren't herbivores. They hunt for, kill and eat other animals. Plus there's a third "vore" in addition to herbivore and carnivore, the omnivore. I think most people would agree that that's what humans are. Maybe he's never heard of them.
Also at one point he implies that we shouldn't consume animal-based protein because of how most of that protein in the US is produced. One could also argue that a lot of the whole plant-based foods in the US are also produced in an equally unhealthy manner. I've never seen a vegan or a carnivore focussed author actually create a level playing field when pitting their chosen diet against its opposition. If it's so clearly better, then stop rigging the deck in your favor!
Overall. I'm pretty disappointed in the book. I feel like it's titled wrong and just feels very negative. I'd be giving it 5 stars if even half of the book was optimistic and really delved into why the whole foods plant based diet was better. But "Whole" didn't and I'm not.
"overral information wasn't practical"
difficult to say, but I thought the book was little monotonic, and difficult to follow at times. Also data was not supported by medical evidence and there has been a lot of conflicting data and information that was just medically not "true" just the opinion of the writer.
more evidence based
too details, no medical evidence
"Terrible audio quality"
Maybe, if there were better audio engineers. Every time the guy said the letter 's' it came out in this really harsh high pitched whistle. I tried many times, but could listen for more than 10 minutes, it gave me a headache. To be fair, I didn't even listen to the story, so could be a very good book, just definitely not something you want to listen to.
"Could Have Read The Same from Facebook"
I would change a lot of this book. While I agree with much of what is in this book I dislike all the kid like ranting and raving. It's no wonder the people that oppose his views treat him like a kid. I think reception of the ideas presented would be better received if delivered in a more professional manner with more facts and not blanket statements with half truths such as what he accuses others of doing.Overall I feel like it was a waste of my time.
No but I'll probably research the author better.
Not one that I would watch.
I thought the reader of the book did a great job. I'll certainly watch for other books with the same reader.

40 whacks
Lizzie borden took an axe ... or did she?
By MELANIE PLENDA
Special to the Union Leader | May 23. 2013 12:28AM
WHO DID IT?: Lizzie Borden, whose name for more than 120 years has been synonymous with a grisly nursery rhyme, was tried for the murder of her parents in Fall River, Mass., but was ultimately acquitted. Still, the case remains shrouded in mystery.
BETWEEN THE PAGES: Annette Holba explores a famous 1892 murder case in her book, "Lizzie Borden Took an Axe, or Did She? A Rhetorical Inquiry," and associated lecture series in New Hampshire.
Borden became the talk of Fall River, Mass., back in 1892, when the 32-year-old was charged with murdering her father, Andrew, and stepmother, Abby, in their home with an axe.
Holba will present her finding at talks throughout the state this year, including Thursday, May 23, at the Harvey-Mitchell Memorial Library, 151 Main St., Epping; Thursday, July 18, at Seabrook Library, 25 Liberty Lane, Seabrook; Thursday, Aug. 15, at Gilmanton Year-Round Library, 1385 NH Route 140, Gilmanton Iron Works; Wednesday, Sept. 11, at Gorham Public Library, 35 Railroad St., Gorham; and Wednesday, Sept. 18, at Newton Town Hall, 2 Town Hall Rd., Newton.
Borden lived with her parents and older sister, Emma, in a small house in Fall River. At the time of his murder, her father, Andrew Borden, had amassed a considerable amount of his death, owned a lot of commercial property and was president of the Union Savings Bank and a director of the Durfee Safe Deposit and Trust Co.
Though ultimately acquitted of the murder, Borden never escaped her infamy and police never considered other suspects.
And it certainly grabbed Holba's attention. She first started looking at the Borden case when she was teaching a class on women and crime back in 1999.
"(Borden's) case just stood out for me from the other women we studied that semester," Holba said.
To get a feel for the case, Holba went back to the scene of the crime. She and a neighbor headed to the Borden home, which is now a bed and breakfast.
"I said, 'Let's go spend the night, let's go explore'," Holba said. "What was really interesting to me was how modest the house was, how small it was, how there were no hallways from room to room.
She also took the extra step of buying the transcripts of the trial. She started reading pockets of the documents, which are thousands of pages long, and immediately found discrepancies. Among them, she said, is testimony as it related to John Morse, Andrew Borden's brother-in-law by a first marriage. Morse had come to stay with the Bordens the night before the murders. He said he heard a conversation between Bridget (the maid) and Abby (the stepmother). Bridget also testified having that conversation, however, she testified it took place after Morse already left the house.
Holba said there's still a lot more work to do, including tracking down the living relatives of the maid, whom some records have as moving to Montana after the trial. The same state that Morse was reported to have lived. She also wants to finish going through the court transcripts and get a better understanding of what became of Emma in the years after the trial.
"If you get too narrow a focus, you lose sight of what's in front of you," Holba said. "I think that's what the police did."

in a sharp departure from previous practice, Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah is planning to bring together at a conference, leaders of Christianity, Judaism and the Muslim religion according to the Saudi owned Al Sharaq al-Awsat newspaper. This, most probably, is the first time any Saudi monarch has invited Jews to participate in a conference on the soil of his nation which makes illegal the importation of non-Muslim religious objects includng Crucixes and Stars of David. The Saudi King said representtives of the three major monotheistic faiths must work together "to defend humanity" from harm. He claimed to have discussed such a gathering during his meeting with the Pope while in Rome.
The Saudi King is disturbed by what he claims is the breakdown of the family unit across the world as well as the damge to the principle of "loyalty to humanity." The monarch informed the Pope: "I proposed to him to address God by means of the commandments he commanded the monotheistic faiths in the Bible, the New Testament, and the Koran."
King Abdullah says Muslim clerics in his nation have given the green light to pursue such a venture. Perhaps, this remarkable departure from normal Saudi attitudes toward other religions reflects a growing fear even among Muslim clerics at the emergence of radical militant views within members of their faith. The King's effort may well indicate he is worried about continuation of the Israel-Arab conflict because it might result in radicals moving from an anti-Israel agenda to one that includes getting rid of more moderate inclined Muslim leaders.

Subscribe to the Mayor's Press Release feed
NEW ORLEANS, LA—Today, the Mayor's Office of Cultural Economy issued a filming notice to New Orleans residents.
On Saturday, June 16th a production crew will be conducting filming at 925 Jackson Avenue, from approximately 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. This filming will involve simulated gunfire.
There will also be restricted parking on certain adjacent blocks. "No Parking" signs will be posted in the following locations:
• 900 Block of Josephine St. (both sides) between Laurel St. and Constance St. (5:30 p.m.-8 a.m.)
• 900 Block of Jackson Ave. (both sides) between Laurel St. and Constance St. (12 p.m.-8 a.m.)
• 1000 Block of Jackson Ave. (downtown side) between Constance St and Magazine St. (12 p.m.-8 a.m.)
Uniformed officers will be on hand to ensure public safety and to facilitate the production crew's work. They will be holding traffic intermittently for intervals of 3 to 5 minutes.
Film New Orleans assists productions with the City's permitting process, connects productions with local crew and resources, and facilitates communication between productions and the local community.
In 2011, $531 million was spent locally in the film industry during both filming and post-production, contributing significantly to the New Orleans economy by creating jobs.
For questions about filming in New Orleans, please contact Katie Williams at Film New Orleans within the Mayor's Office of Cultural Economy at (504) 658-0923.

LOL at Bri.
I was thinking more like:
etc etc
You can't put a limit on anything. The more you dream, the farther you get
Team Colosseum
I am definately going to this! I would like to see some Liverpool Fighters on the card (as there are loads)
Terry Etim
Pietro Menga
Christ Fishgold
Danny Roberts
Are obvious choices but I would also love to see Paddy Pimblett and Ellis Hampson on the card both AFC champions and unbeaten at pro so far (but both very young and starting out in their careers).
Paddy and Ellis haven't done much as Pro's yet so don't know if that would come off and their amateur records count for nothing now. I'd like to see Christ fight in Liverpool as well
If you love fighting you can never really lose!!!!!

These are $27 at amazon and the customers LOVE them!
And, these are better than those durable CHEAP animal-print knives, how?
I've got a zebra-printed set, that I've been using for 6 months, and with rare tune-ups, they're still sharp. (And, I've got 2 more, back-up sets.)
Since the knives say "Rachel Ray" on them, when you cut your fingers with these do you treat it with EVOO?
are these full tang?
vorik wrote:are these full tang?
according to knivesndaggers.com, these have "strong tang".
I can confirm that these are indeed Tang® colored...not full, just the handle part. Maybe the leopard knife company will come out with an astronaut version for you that will be full tang colored though.
Do these knives have her name on them anywhere? I really can't stand Rachel Ray and don't want her name on these knives if I buy them for my college student kids. Then again, maybe they will think of me and how much I hate her when they stab a pork chop which might be a good thing. May get me a quick phone call which isnt a request for money.

Your post is full of win. Major win.
They are decent knives. We have the set and got the diamond sharpener for them.
The knives themselves are sharp and the sharpener is pretty good as well. They are NOT very good at resisting acid (tomato, onion and the like.) That said, if you care for them, they are good knives. Good heft and they take well to being sharpened often.
I have this set, its great. I lot of people don't wanna drop the money on really really nice set and the Rachel Ray knives are great for that. The steel I believe is a CRMOV. It takes a nice edge and holds it pretty well.
I picked up a set, in part, because of the case. My education requires me to go on multiple clinicals throughout the US and having a good set of all purpose knives that are made to be travel ready sounds pretty invaluable to me.
conanthelibrarian wrote:according to knivesndaggers.com, these have "strong tang".
I went to your link. But I don't get it. No astronauts. No little happy martians drinking.
I always took "strong tang" to mean it had some alcohol in it. I don't think that is the case w/ these knives......
so call me knife illiterate. I had to look it up. the meaning of Tang
Why do so many of the knife sets look like the same 3 knives re-branded?
I have a ten piece sent of the RR Knives in a bamboo block and I love them. The handles on mine are anti-microbial so I suggest hand-washing (I never put my Chef's knives in the dishwasher anyway, but some folks do) They have a very comfortable feel, I have very large hands, (men's gloves, size large), yet family members with smaller hands have no problem controlling them. The price on these is unheard of. I paid $149.00 for my 10 piece block and that was a great deal on sale. If you need knives, I wouldn't hesitate. I'm picking up a couple sets for gifts.
$9.95 matches the price I paid a few years ago for a Ronco Six-Star 3-knife starter set (including the "Ronco Rocker"). The $5.00 shipping would be worth it, to get a knifeless beginner cook her/his first semi-decent set of knives. The only knife I'd add to this set would be a decent bread knife. (This is why, when I replaced my Miracle Blade III knives with a set of Ginsus a year ago, my spouse insisted on keeping the multipurpose slicer, because it made such a good bread knife, and was the one type of knife the Ginsu set lacked.)
Ok, Wooters...important question. Has anyone had any experience throwing these in the dishwasher on a regular basis. Yes, I know. The directions say "don't do it". But... I don't follow directions, and I want a set that I can use for poultry only and just throw in the dishwasher for easy disinfecting. Thanks, Wooters!

One question... How far will you be throwing them? Will children be in the area? If so, I would say Nooooooooo!
That said, at $9.00 a set, you can do what you want with them. The dishwasher isn't good for any knife, but let's be realistic. It's not a set of Wusthof or Henckels. My wife is constantly throwing my knives in the dishwasher and they seem to hold up pretty well. I love her, but she doesn't "follow directions" either and we're still good.
Tang! Giggle, giggle...
Bought these last time. I use the chef's knife almost daily. It's sharp and the handle is rubber so it feels secure in my hand. I think the quality versus price ratio is definatly in your favor with this one.
I have the big one & it is my favorite knife. I know I'm supposed to wash knives by hand, but I put this one in the top of my dishwasher & it comes out just fine. $15.....what a deal!!! I'm in for a couple of sets, maybe 3 just to have extra & for gifts! Thank you WOOT for your awesomeness!
Ich bin ein Wooter!
I'm getting these for two reasons: one can never have too many knives; they're orange!!
These are decent knives and have held up well. We have a larger set that came with the bamboo box. We hand wash these and don't put them in the dish washer. I'm pretty sure we have 2 of the 3 of these already. We did not have the utiity knife. The only knives I love better is a $20 4pc set of ceramics.
I got these as a Christmas gift a few years ago and love them. The color isn't my fave, but they work really well. I'd definitely recommend!
Pretty sure they're Wu-Tang.
critStock wrote:Pretty sure they're Wu-Tang.
I believe that you have a slight spelling error there. The correct spelling is Woot-Tang, but the spelling you used is considered acceptable in the modern "Rap" and "Hip-Hop" vernaculars.
I beleve the Tang is part of the Poon, which would mean quite old.

French President Nicolas Sarkozy while visiting Algeria came out strongly for the creation of an independent Palestinian state. "it is from a feeling of injustice,' said Sarkozy, "that the terrorists derive their greatest strengths. Depriving the Palestinians of a nation is an injustice that France will not accept." He also made clear in his talk with Algerian students 'that Israel has a right to live in security" and failure to allow that to occur might also be construed as an injustice. While in Algeria, the French president signed a nuclear cooperation accord with Algeria and urged peaceful sharing of nuclear energy between Europe and Muslim nations. Sarkozy also told them Paris would host a conference on December 17 to raise money for the Palestinians. throughout his three day visit, Sarkozy has made clear that French colonial rule of Algeria was wrong and as he put it, "I have not come to deny the past. But, I have come to say that the future is more important." Several times in his speech, the French leader made clear his opposition to racism, to anti-semitism and to anti-Muslim ideas.
President Sarkozy is doing an important thing by openly speaking of the need for Israel to have security as a nation while also ensuring that Palestine is an independent nation. Those who preach anti-Muslim feeling are no different from those who support anti-semitism.

Not complete with details, like eyes and black being painted flat black.
Should I add more Dark Grey feathers to top, or paint solid Dark Grey and let it go?
It's not a white base, it's a lite grey which when outside in the light, is not a bad color!!
Thoughts, suggestion? I am not a painter, my first go at this and it is helping the cabin fever!!

How can I tell if my baby has an ingrown toenail?
An ingrown toenail is a nail that's pressing or growing into the skin. The problem can show up on any toe, although the big toe is the one most commonly affected. A typical early sign is redness or swelling of the skin at the edge of the nail.
Your baby's toe will be tender and possibly quite painful, especially when rubbed by a shoe or a tight sock. Your baby may cry and pull on his toe or foot. If he's old enough to toddle around, he may limp or grimace when he walks.
If an ingrown nail gets infected, you'll see a blister containing white or yellowish fluid, surrounded by reddened skin. If the blister breaks, there may be some discharge. The swelling or redness may increase as the nail grows.
How should I treat my baby's ingrown toenail?
Soak your baby's foot in warm (not hot) soapy water for about ten minutes, two or three times a day. (Most babies love to splash around in water, so it shouldn't be too hard to convince him to do this.) Afterward, dry it and apply a dab of over-the-counter antibiotic ointment or cream to the problem area.
You might try gently filing the nail away from the skin. If you can, use your nails to gently lift the toenail and insert a small amount of sterile cotton or gauze between the nail and the skin. Use only enough to raise the nail slightly, and replace the cotton several times a day. (If you can't get your baby to sit still for this, try it while he's sleeping.)
If you think that the ingrown nail is really bothering your baby, you might consider giving him a carefully measured dose of over-the-counter pain reliever, such as acetaminophen. (Never give your child aspirin, which can trigger Reye's syndrome — a rare but potentially fatal illness. And if your baby is younger than 3 months old, check with the doctor before giving him anything at all.)
Have your baby wear loose-fitting shoes or sandals until the toe is healed, and let him go barefoot at home. In many cases, an ingrown toenail will improve in a few days once you start taking these steps.
