|I believe it�s going to get much worse. As people who bought houses with floating-rate mortgages and little money down slip into default, millions of dwellings will hit a no-bid market. And when hundreds of billions in loans go bad, the institutions holding them and the whole American financial structure will be threatened with a deflationary collapse. Millions of people could lose their jobs in an economy that just doesn�t need that many mortgage brokers, real estate speculators, and McMansion builders � or waiters at restaurants those brokers, speculators, and builders can no longer afford. The Fed will try to prevent this by creating more dollars. But then foreigners � and smart Americans � will treat the currency units like hot potatoes.
The Trend HuntersThis group of brilliant minds is another testament to Doug�s ability of �sniffing out� the best of the best. Together they form the editorial team of Casey Research�s monthly trend advisory, The Casey Report.
Making Fortunes in Times of Crisis
What Other
Bill Bonner, The Daily Reckoning
�Doug . . . is the most instinctive contrarian I have ever met and that, in my opinion, is the key to his remarkable success as a speculator.�
In November 2008, the Casey Report editors told subscribers to buy the Market Vectors Gold Miners ETF (GDX), then trading at $21.01. At the beginning of October 2009, GDX stood at $47.76 � for a 127.3% return in less than a year.
�I don't believe that I have ever come into contact with an individual or an organization quite as thorough, knowledgeable, committed, down-to-earth and downright prescient re: any investment sector, as Doug Casey and his senior executives��
Make the Trend Your Friend�
with The Casey Report
�The Casey newsletters are hands-down the most valuable of many newsletters I've subscribed to since becoming aware of the precarious state of the US economy and dollar about 2 years ago. The stock picks are invaluable� and provide an invaluable insight that cuts through the noise of so much other information that I sift through on a daily basis. Great job and much appreciated.�
�I would like to thank the whole Casey Research Team for the great product that they produce. I first heard Doug Casey speak a few years back at a financial planning seminar in Tampa. I have to say it was a life-altering event, not only from the fact of the money I have made on Doug's recommendations, but from the way I view the world today. Thanks for all you do for your clients.�

Guys, 1957 GMC 100 relatively stock, still has original steering setup. I need to know if the steering is affected adversely by ??? Kingpin issues? steering box wear? I am 6 feet 225 lbs and I can barely turn the thing.
oh yeah, and i cant spell
I'd venture to say most of your problem is likely the kingpin bushings . At least , that's where I would start . Good luck !
---------------------- " Experience is something you get just after you need it " -----------------
That was what i was hoping for. Thank You!
Any preference in quality or manufacturer for king pings?
so, i rebuilt the front end with new kingpins, and Redline Synthetic grease. i am now in the process of finishing the hubs with new tapered roller bearings. I have had the hubs sandblasted, just need some advice or tips on how best to coat or paint the hubs before they go back on....????
When you get it togather have the caster checked , If one side is different then the other it can be hard to steer. mike
Thanks Mike
If you have an issue with the caster on a straight axle you have a problem! It could only mean the axle is twisted or someone has put a wedge shaped shim between the axle and spring on one side or the other.
When i rebuilt the spindles/kingpins i noticed that the axle had pads or steel shims/spacers between the axle and springs. they were both identical and i replaced them exactly how they were before dis-assembly. I have pictures, but i dont seem to be able to post them...
hey guys, Anyone know what is needed to mount an alternator on the cast iron manifolds that were used in the 50's and 60's?
there are alternators that come in generator cases to replace the generators.. so it becomes a bolt on without any bracket changes..i am taking that you still have the 347 pontiac motor that the V8 57 GMC pickups came with perhaps some of the gmc parts suppliers might have something other than the chevy bolt on brackets in their catalogs..if your charging system has failed... generators can be rebuilt easily...voltage regulators are still available ...and how to polarize the generator after changing either the battery, generator or regulator.if you have had the battery disconnected for any time at all.. you will probably want to start with repolarizing the charging system... i will have to look around for that info.. . i don't have it in this computer..
Thanks Wayne, I should clarify... the 347 is long gone before I got the truk right now I have the chevy 305 from '78 and it has the long chevy water punp... I want to go to a short water pump with the alternator on the drivers side mounted to the old rams head manifold.
this is how the brackets are spaced out over the headers...
these brackets are available at an amazing number of parts stores..which stores do you shop at so i can get you a proper part numberAZ, OR, CQ, NAPA, ADV, SUM, JEG, other

WSJ wrongly suggested Smith & Wesson stock declined as a result of litigation
Research ››› ››› SIMON MALOY
A July 27 Wall Street Journal editorial endorsing legislation protecting gun manufacturers from liability suits falsely suggested that firearm manufacturer Smith & Wesson has seen its stock prices suffer due to "legal uncertainty." In fact, Smith & Wesson's stock prices have steadily increased over the past four years despite numerous lawsuits, even as the stock market as a whole declined.
While Smith & Wesson, the gun company that the Journal mentioned by name, has fared well in the stock market, the stock of Sturm, Ruger & Co., Inc., the only other publicly listed U.S. gun manufacturer, has more closely mirrored the ups and downs of the market over the last four years.
The Journal editorial praised the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, to be introduced in the Senate, which would "prohibit civil liability actions from being brought or continued against manufacturers, distributors, dealers, or importers of firearms or ammunition for damages, injunctive or other relief resulting from the misuse of their products by others."
The Journal deemed such lawsuits an "abuse of the legal system" and bemoaned the financial strain they have placed on the firearms industry:
Gun makers have yet to lose a case, but these victories have cost more than $200 million in legal bills. This is a huge sum for an industry collectively smaller than any Fortune 500 company and that supports 20,000 jobs at most. Publicly listed companies such as Smith & Wesson have seen the legal uncertainty reflected in their share price. Money for legal fees could be better spent creating new jobs, researching ways to make guns safer, or returning profits to shareholders.
Despite the Journal's implication that Smith & Wesson's stock (SWB) has suffered, its stock price has actually increased steadily over the past four years -- from less than $1 per share through most of 2001 to nearly $5 in July 2005:
(Saf-T-Hammer Corp. acquired Smith & Wesson from Tompkins PLC in May 2001; the company is now known as Smith & Wesson Holding Corp.)
This steady increase occurred even as Smith & Wesson dealt with numerous lawsuits. Smith & Wesson's 2004 annual report noted: "In addition to certain other pending litigation to which we are a party, we are a defendant in approximately 16 lawsuits involving our products and are aware of certain other such claims." According to the report, these included "lawsuits brought by cities, municipalities, counties, and individuals (including certain putative class actions) against numerous firearms manufacturers, distributors, and dealers seeking to recover damages allegedly arising out of the misuse of firearms by third parties in the commission of homicides, suicides, and other shootings involving juveniles and adults."
Smith & Wesson's stock continued to rise even as standard measures of overall market performance, such as the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the Standard & Poor's 500 Index (S&P 500), reflected flat or declining stock prices.
The following chart demonstrates Smith & Wesson's performance in the stock market over the past five years, as compared with the Dow Jones (DJI) and S&P 500 (GSPC) market indicators:

Theo Walcott believes that Arsenal's ability to sustain a high tempo for 90 minutes could see them past Barcelona next week.
The European champions put on a masterclass in the first half at Emirates Stadium on Wednesday night and, although Manuel Almunia kept them at bay for 45 minutes, Barcelona got the goals they deserved after the break when Zlatan Ibrahimovic struck twice in 13 minutes. Arsenal looked dead and buried at that point but Walcott's 66th-minute introduction ignited them and the substitute reduced the arrears before Cesc Fabregas slammed home a late penalty to earn a 2-2 draw.
Arsène Wenger's side finished the stronger having been second-best for much of the game and, according to Walcott, their fitness levels could be decisive when the teams reconvene in the Nou Camp next Tuesday.
"Barcelona did play well for 60 minutes, but then died off for the last 30," said Walcott.
"Playing at that sort of tempo is very hard to do for the whole game. We are a very fit team and we came right at them. It will be a very tough game but if we frustrate them and get an early goal their fans will be right at them. It will be a great game for the neutral.
"We need to play our football, get the ball down, keep it and frustrate them at times - like they did to us, especially in the first half. They created a lot of chances and if it hadn't been for our goalkeeper they could have scored a few more."
Arsenal will probably need Manuel Almunia to be at his best in the second leg as well to quell the threat of Lionel Messi, Ibrahimovic, Xavi et al, and they will have to pull off a famous victory without their inspirational captain, Fabregas. The injured midfielder is suspended after collecting a booking on Wednesday night but Walcott believes Arsenal can overcome his absence.
"Cesc is a fantastic player for us, we always want him to play when he can and hopefully the injury won't be too bad," he said. "But we have great players who can come in - he didn't play against Porto and we still won 5-0."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Mandriva 2010 - First impressions PART 2
This is a continuation of PART 1 of my Mandriva 2010 review. If you are interested, please read the first installment first.
Now, let´s pick it up right where we left it.
When I got to the desktop, my first thoughts were more towards Karmic Koala than to Mandriva, and how Ubuntu have been taking giant steps to becoming an incredibly good distro. It´s difficult and not exactly fair to compare distros without taking into consideration several factors. However, I believe that overall user experience is an important element, and probably what most users will care about eventually.
Mandriva 2010 does not look like much of an improvement from 2009.1. It does feel slightly faster, but not in a noticeable way. Compared to my installation of Karmic, it feels slow and bloated. Icon and window themes are the same, and so are fonts. The Mandriva menu looks the same as well, more of a traditional "windows like" kind of menu, as opposed to the standard KDE menu. Completely a personal thing, but the default Mandriva themes, as well as the default wallpaper are ugly in my opinion. I quickly changed them and started using Oxygen theme. I then enabled compiz effects so I could use some emerald window themes (much nicer than any kwin theme, IMHO).
All in all, the desktop experience was a bit of a disappointment for me, as I expected quite an improvement, and it isn´t there, I think.
The problems started when I wanted to connect to my Wireless network. The usual check on network connections showed that wireless was down. ifconfig command didn´t even show wlan0, and ifconfig wlan0 up failed, showing a SIOCSIFFLAGS: The file or directory does not exist type error. That bit was very frustrating, as it´s been a while since I have had a similar problem. In fact, considering that this is the same machine where I installed Mandriva 2009.1, and it picked up the wireless network flawlessly back then, it almost felt like a step backwards.
In any case, the usual googling magic worked again, and I could find a solution. For those experiencing the same problem, here´s how to fix it (solution for Intel on chip wireless cards):
1.- Open up a virtual console.
2.- Run dmesg | grep firmware
3.- You should get lots of entries. Download firmware from http://intellinuxwireless.org/?n=Downloads based on the results you got from step 1.
4 .- You should download a compressed file containing few other files inside it. Just extract the one whose name is exactly the same as what you got in step one into /lib/firmware.
5.- Run ifconfig wlan0 up and that should bring up your wireless interface. Your network applet should now be detecting your wireless network among others in your area.
NOTE: You may need to perform some of these tasks as root or by running sudo.
Once the process was finished and I was connected to my wireless network, things were pretty smooth. I downloaded my favorite ttf-droid fonts and set them up, along with a few compiz and system shortcuts of my liking.
I gotta say the guys at KDE are doing a very good job at improving this desktop environment. I personally favor GNOME myself, but have to admit KDE is becoming a very nice piece of work.
Anyways, after more tweaking than initially expected, I got Mandriva working smoothly. It is an OK release, in my opinion. I was expecting a lot more from it, and considering how Fedora and OpenSuse come with very promising releases, Mandriva may be losing some ground to them very quickly.
Let´s wait and see.
Thanks for reading!

Seems weired, I think you have a intel prowireless wifi card, and, IFIK mandriva never has come with the firmware files. I've been using Mandriva for long time in my laptop, and i have a intel prowireless wifi card.ReplyDelete
This is my blog http://rjfc.blogspot.com/ and the articles about mandriva are these
Hi, Ricardo,ReplyDelete
Thanks for your comments!
Well, Mandriva free should not, but Mandriva One always worked out of the box for me. In fact, it is clear the firmware is there if the Wifi card is detected using the LiveCD.
Anyways, after putting everything in place, I think it's an OK release. However, Mandriva used to be my favorite KDE implementation, but I believe it will soon fall short in comparison to Fedora.
Every distro has it's flaws, I have seen more laptops that ubuntu doesn't recognice it's wifi cards than Mandriva. But the important point here is, have you taken the time to fill a bug report about the wifi issue ? if you don't report it don't expect to get it fixed.ReplyDelete
Hi, Jean Luis,ReplyDelete
Thanks for your comments. I admit my post probably sounded more harsh than I intended. Of course all distros have their flaws, and Ubuntu is no different. However, my review was an overall reflection of the 2010 release, and I stand by my initial impressions after a few months using it. I still can't see an improvement over 2009.1 that would measure up to the jump Ubuntu 9.10 or Fedora 12 took. Note that I know Ubuntu 9.10 has been a problematic release, at least during the first couple of months, but still they pushed the envelope and brought lots of improvements, perhaps too many!
Anyways, my expectations on Mandriva 2010 were higher, and it perhaps let me down, that's all.

One thing to keep in mind is that SHB love the patties.
There are certainly many who are more qualified on this forum to discuss this than me. However, your question jogged my memory about something I read a while ago and I just found it:http://pinkpages.chrisbacherconsulting.com/1999_Oct_-_My_Thoughts_about_Bee_Diseases_Mites_and_Pests.htmlScroll down to the paragraph with the header, "Parasitic Mites". The author talks about what grease patties do and his formula.HTH,John
Quote from: AllenF on March 08, 2011, 05:37:25 PMOne thing to keep in mind is that SHB love the patties.Do you mean that's bad because the patties will attract hive beetles or that it's good because the patties could control the beetles?
It is an open all you can eat buffet for the beetles (or their young).
You're in the Atlanta area - if you put patties of any kind on your hive, you will have an explosion of hive beetles as AllenF said....they love the stuff. There are many ways to address the small hive beetle, but these days in Georgia they overwinter in the hives - even after this year's harsh winter. Getting rid of them is difficult. One of the simplest ways is to make your own SHB trap - here's a link to the Sonny Mel trap I use following their plans on the Internet.Linda T in Atlanta

Hi everybody,
I went several times on TDH to find armor building tips and I've been more that once amazed by the quality of some costumes.
As a LARP player, I'm in the costume/armor building hobby for a long time now, but I only made few Sci-Fi equipement (a Luxeon Lightsaber, a Nerf bases Han Solo balster and its belt, and some customized nerf guns), and no Sci-Fi Armor yet.
And few days ago, I saw the last SWTOR video game trailer, and I basically fell in love with the bounty hunter armor from the video game !
So there is a larp oriented armor project slowing growing up in my mind. I just ordered an Hasbro Clone trooper helmet and I think of using some clone trooper armor elements as bases for the armor design.
Once I have read the majors topics on the "custom bounty hunters" section, I'll may be start a topic for my project.

A treasurehttp://www.accesstoinsight.org/ptf/dhamma/dana/index.html
"And what is the treasure of generosity? There is the case of a disciple of the noble ones, his awareness cleansed of the stain of stinginess, living at home, freely generous, openhanded, delighting in being magnanimous, responsive to requests, delighting in the distribution of alms. This is called the treasure of generosity."
With mind I reconice the importance to train awareness of generosity, when a such situation occur. There is much happiness in such awareness, but is it possible to act like this in this modern world?
E.g with all the demand for attention and requests it is just not possible to help everyone you meet..., or is it?

Before he took his team to Maui, Roy Williams made it clear that one of the possible consequences of playing three games in three days-plus four games in six days counting the road game at Long Beach State-might be a shuffling of the rotation. With a young squad, the Tar Heel head coach knew he couldn't overtax his normal rotation.
One of the primary beneficiaries of that shuffle turned out to be backup point guard Luke Davis, who played a career-high 14 minutes against Chaminade, notching a career-high seven assists and just one turnover. Davis's bump in playing time was also due to Marcus Paige's nagging back injury, but the sophomore transfer made a positive impact in his reserve role.
"My whole motto is to be ready and be prepared," Davis says. "Marcus's back hurt a little bit, and I was able to step in and find the open man. It's easy when you have such great players around you. They did all the work."
Although Davis played just four minutes in the loss to Butler, he worked hard on defense against hot-shooting Rotnei Clarke, and his season-long assist/turnover ratio is 12:1. It's fair to say that in a Maui Invitational with some mixed returns for the Tar Heels, the week on the island was a confidence-builder for Davis.
"Luke gave us a lift in the (Butler) game when he was in there with that group," Williams said last week. "Luke works so, so hard. I'm tough on point guards...Having Luke get extra minutes is something that will help us down the line."
Of course, it's one thing to excel against Chaminade in a low-pressure environment in Maui, and quite another to take control of the Carolina offense in front of a hostile crowd in Bloomington, Indiana. With Paige's season-long assist/turnover ratio at 20:19, limiting lead guard mistakes will be of primary concern against a talented team like the Hoosiers.
"I need to play better defense," Davis says. "I have a lot of work to do defensively. I'm also trying to take care of the ball. I had a turnover against Chaminade and I was upset about that. I really want to take care of the ball. My job is to get shots for the other players, and if we don't get a shot, that's a problem."
Shot selection: Before he held his first practice with the 2013 Tar Heels, Roy Williams said he expected to have a slightly different team from his usual post-oriented attack. With only James Michael McAdoo a proven scorer in the lane, Williams thought more of the scoring load would shift to the perimeter.
Through six games, that's exactly what has happened. Last season, 23.4% of Carolina's field goal attempts were three-pointers. This year, 31.4% of the Tar Heel shots are from beyond the three-point line. However, thanks to a solid performance from the perimeter in Maui, Carolina is actually shooting more effectively from the field than it did last year, when the Tar Heels featured the highly effective Tyler Zeller and John Henson around the rim.
According to effective field goal percentage, which weights three-pointers more heavily (because they're worth, you guessed it, three points), the Tar Heels had an eFG% of 49.8% last season. This year, that figure is 53.2%.
"That kind of shooting starts with us," said Reggie Bullock. "We have to make the extra pass to get good shots, and we have to knock down the shots when we get them. We have good shooters on this team, so it's up to us to make them."
Injury report: Williams liked the small lineup the Tar Heels used occasionally in Maui. But any plans to go with that lineup more frequently are on hold after Hairston suffered a knee injury in practice this weekend. "Right now I don't think he's going to practice today, and if he doesn't practice today, he's probably not going to play tomorrow," Williams said of Hairston.
Due partially to Hairston's uncertain status, the Tar Heel starting lineup is likewise unsettled. Brice Johnson earned his first career start in Maui, but there is no guarantee he will be there again tomorrow night. "Not at all," replied Williams when asked how firm Johnson's hold was on the fifth starting spot. "It was a better matchup that day. I have no idea who I'm going to start tomorrow."
Indiana will also be somewhat depleted. Two Hoosier freshmen, Peter Jurkin and Hanner Mosquera-Perea, are serving nine-game NCAA suspensions. The organization denied the duo's appeal last week.
Adam Lucas is the publisher of Tar Heel Monthly and the author or co-author of seven books on the Tar Heels.

Backcountry with backstory in Powderwhore's 'Choose Your Adventure'
November 8, 2012
The Utah-based Powderwhore Productions' eighth ski film, "Choose Your Adventure," is a backcountry tale compiled of chapters evoking the popular books from (some of our) childhoods, each centering on an individual or group with a story to tell.
The movie starts with diehard Darrell Finlayson, who skied at least one day a month for 178 consecutive months, even taking a goofy go at it in 2007 after he broke his neck in a mountain bike crash, just to keep the tally going.
There are other "crusty locals" – like Todd Stuart, with the hand-hewn cabin buried deep in snow, who "will do anything to get the goods," whoring himself out, as it were, despite the toll on his body, for pow. Or the long-haired, shaggy-bearded Robert Athey, the self-taught backcountry split board and ski addict in the Wasatch Mountains in Utah who's been at it nearly four decades, and rocks a style all his own.
The film is not without its pros tackling big lines and cliff drops – so maybe there is a little ski porn thrown in there after all. The brothers Provo throw down some great lines (one on a snowboard, one on skis), and there are plenty of big cliff drops from Hugo Harrison and PY Leblanc in British Columbia, among others.
Pro or local, skier, snowboarder or telemark skier, however, everyone in this movie has a story to tell. Because of that, "Choose Your Adventure" reminds us of ourselves – or our friends – who ski, ride, skin or just love doing what we do outdoors.
"We wanted to tag along and capture their actions and motivation for heading into the mountains, creating more of an authentic experience," the filmmakers explained. "We traveled light and moved fast to avoid interfering with the actual adventures as they unfolded."
Most, though not all, shots are foot-accessed; several entail multi-day journeys. Some are adventures to new realms, like the flats of Svalbard, Norway – an island in the Arctic Circle – that was "like skiing in outer space."
Or roping into telepherique-accessed couloirs in La Grave, France, with Dylan Freed, where it looked exciting even if the snow didn't look as primo as the rest of the locations. ("There's no such thing as bad snow, only bad skiers," Freed says.)
Others are just straight pow shots – pow shots to the face so deep that in one scene, Ian Provo wears a snorkel.
Then we are whisked away on an adventure to Antarctica. Never mind how cool it is to see the ship navigate icebergs, or how cute and cuddly the penguins are, we then watch snowboardcross Olympic gold medalist Seth Wescott and big mountain skier Chris Davenport clean lines with a roiling, teal-blue, Antarctic Ocean at their base. Later, the ship's passengers take turns jumping (roped) into the ocean, and on the way back, they face hurricane-force winds and waves reaching eight meters tall, by the captain's estimation.
This film has some feel-good, multi-tool love between skiers, snowboarders and telemark skiers, including a great segment on tele maverick Jake Sakson, who took third in the 2012 Freeskiing World Tour at Kirkwood, free heeling it against the alpiners.
There are some funny bits – like the woman in Cerro Castillo, Chile, telling us about her land and her family in Spanish while she's subtitled something very different, and the Howells' commercial for "Brogressive" insurance: "Next time you're out there walking the tightrope of stupidity, do it with the added confidence of having your bro's at your back."
Awesome flick. Watch this one to the end. "Choose Your Adventure" screens at the Blue Spruce Inn in Frisco tonight at 8.

OK, I have a pair of Cheng's boots which were, at the time, the best available. But now that I'm trying to reimmerse myself in the hobby, I see a lot of threads about CA and JW boots. I'm guessting they have supplanted Cheng as the boot of choice?
My question is - how does Cheng's boot stack up against CA or JW?

Texas natives Matthew McConaughey and Lance Armstrong have long been buddies (who can forget those photos of the two of them jogging shirtless together?). So has the actor spoken to his friend following Lance's two-night bombshell sit-down with Oprah?
Access Hollywood's Tim Vincent caught up with Matthew at the premiere of his new film, "Mud," at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival, where the 43-year-old star revealed he has indeed talked to Lance following the doping confession and said the athlete is doing well.
PLAY IT NOW: Matthew McConaughey On His Extreme Weight Loss: 'It Wasn't Really As Hard As People Thought It Was'
PHOTOS: Hollywood's Hottest Dads & Their Little Ones
While Matthew seems to be in a good place with Lance now, in an interview with MTV News on Saturday, he admitted he initially was very angry when he learned the seven-time Tour de France champion had cheated.
VIEW THE PHOTOS: Hollywood's Hottest Beach Bodies — The Guys!
"My first reaction was I was pissed off. I was mad," he told MTV, adding that he wanted to be "delicate" in how he spoke regarding the scandal. "I then got kind of sad for him. First off, I had a part of me that took it kind of personally, which I think a lot of people have."
After giving the situation serious thought, Matthew said he realized he shouldn't take the lies as a personal affront.
"What I mean by this is, what was he supposed to do? Call me to the side and go, 'Hey man, I did it but don't tell anybody.' Then I would have really had a reason to be pissed off at him, going, 'You want me to walk around holding this?'" he said. "Where I am now is I've put myself out of the way and I am happy for this guy, who has now chosen to reenter this new chapter of his life a truly free man.
VIEW THE PHOTOS: Lance Armstrong
Adding, "And the weight he had on his shoulders, without the boogieman under the bed, the skeleton in the closet that he's carried for 14 years. Fourteen years he lied and carried the lie with him."

Matthew agreed with what Oprah said multiple times during the shocking interview, which is that finally telling the truth will liberate Lance, but said he believes it will be a long, painful and humbling road.
"Oprah said the other night, 'The truth will set you free,' but she forgot one part. It's miserable in the beginning. And it's going to be miserable," he said. "But he's looking it in the eye, and he'll handle it. He'll deal. And he's ready for how hard it's going to be to deal."

"The flavor was wonderful and so easy to make. I would cut down on the cooking time though. I used no salt ketchup to cut down on the sodium. I would also like to see a little bit more liquid."

I wonder if anyone is willing to help me. I am looking for some of the funniest stories in TEFL. As TEFLers we wonder off to pretty much every corner of the planet finding paradise and trouble in equal measures. I am looking at the idea of putting together a collection of true stories of some of the most funniest, embarrassing, tender and terrifying situations TEFLers have come across. The idea is to offer it to new TEFL teachers (no cost) to be able to give them a real perspective of life as a TEFL teacher - the good the bad and the ugly!!! So they can come out to wherever it is they are heading with open eyes!!
If anybody is willing to take the time to write of their experiences or to tell the story of someone they know I would be really greatfull

CAMBRIDGE MA – David T. Ellwood, Dean of Harvard Kennedy School (HKS), today announced the appointment of Max Bazerman, the Jesse Isidor Straus Professor of Business Administration at Harvard Business School (HBS), as co-director of the HKS Center for Public Leadership (CPL). He will join David Gergen in co-leading the Center, shaping its intellectual agenda and its expanded efforts to develop the next generation of leaders for the common good.
From L to R: Academic Dean Iris Bohnet; CPL co-director Max Bazerman; CPL co-director David Gergen; HKS Dean David Ellwood. Photo Credit: Tom Fitzsimmons
Bazerman has been actively engaged at the Kennedy School in the past as a faculty affiliate as well as an affiliate of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences (FAS). In his new role, he will not only co-direct the Center but also teach at the Kennedy School as well as HBS.
"Professor Bazerman is a highly esteemed scholar in the fields of decision making, ethics and negotiation, all of which are essential factors in the study of public leadership," said Dean Ellwood. "I am thrilled that he is taking on this new role at CPL where he can engage even more closely with HKS students, faculty and fellows at a critical time."
Bazerman will join forces at CPL with David Gergen, Public Service Professor at HKS and a White House adviser to four U.S. Presidents of both parties. Gergen has led CPL's efforts to build a robust platform of research, teaching and leadership development programs serving people in the public, private and non-profit sectors.
"Over the past several years it has been my honor to participate in many CPL sponsored events, and I have long admired David Gergen's leadership in making the Center and its work more visible to the broader community," said Bazerman. "And I agree with David that in addition to CPL training the next generation of excellent public leaders, the Center can also be the leader in training the next generation of scholars creating knowledge useful to public leaders."
Bazerman won numerous teaching awards, including the Distinguished Educator Award from the Academy of Management. He also received an honorary doctorate from the University of London. He is the faculty coordinator of the "Changing the Game: Negotiation and Competitive Decision Making" executive program, and is often the negotiation faculty member in the Advanced Management Program, the most senior of HBS' comprehensive programs. Between 2002-11, he was consistently named one of the top 40 authors, speakers, and teachers of management by Executive Excellence. He is the author, co-author, or co-editor of 19 books, and more than 200 research articles and chapters. Bazerman also serves as a member of the editorial boards of the American Behavioral Scientist, Negotiations and Conflict Management Research, Business Ethics Quarterly, and The Journal of Behavioral Finance.
"Max Bazerman's appointment will help to propel the Center to a whole new level," said Gergen. "His intellectual efforts, especially in behavioral science, along with his legendary record for mentoring younger scholars and his infectious enthusiasm for the work of the Center make him an ideal partner. With the commitment of Dean Ellwood and the coming together of a strong, new advisory board, we are poised to make the leap that we have long wanted. I am deeply grateful that Max will now be our co-pilot."
The Center for Public Leadership's faculty affiliates include Hannah Riley Bowles, research director and senior lecturer of public policy; David Gergen, professor of public service; Ronald Heifetz, King Hussein bin Talal Senior Lecturer in Public Leadership; Swanee Hunt, Eleanor Roosevelt Lecturer in Public Policy; Barbara Kellerman, James MacGregor Burns Lecturer in Public Leadership; Jennifer Lerner, professor of public policy and management; Brian Mandell, senior lecturer in public policy; Joseph Nye, Harvard University Distinguished Service Professor; Todd Rogers, assistant professor of public policy; and Dean Williams, lecturer in public policy.
Established through generous gifts from Les and Abigail Wexner and supported now by a widening circle of benefactors, the Center for Public Leadership seeks to advance the frontiers of knowledge about leadership through research and faculty teaching. It is equally committed to broadening and deepening the pool of leaders for the common good through its stewardship of five different scholarship programs for students, skill-building workshops, leadership seminars, and programing for leadership and social change.

Vermmy35, I think you and kathyp are right about that.It's an interesting subject to me because I have a good friend who is from Russia, who grew up under socialistic rule. She must have been in her late teens when the wall came down.Anyway- it was interesting to see her reaction when the Russian invasion of Georgia happened last year. She was in support of it, and her perspective on the reasons for the invasion were completely different from what we were hearing in the press here.
This was probably scheduled to show Georgian's why they should join NATO. BTW it's not funny.
Now that the Obama administration has extended an olive branch to Moscow, offering to "reset" badly damaged relations, Russia must find a new outlet for its irritation with the West, said Alexander Golts, a military analyst with the Russian online newspaper Yezhednevny Zhurnal."NATO is the most useful for this," Golts said. "You can blame NATO without blaming any particular country. It's a nickname for the West in general."

We at the Writing Center really want to provide the Watkins community with useful and easy-to-access tools to improve the literacy of our students. Although the Writing Center is still in some ways a fledgling project, below are some of the resources we offer.
As we have hopefully made clear, the Writing Center is available to students for help at all stages of the paper-writing process. Offering appointments 30-60 minutes in length, we will assist students in choosing a thesis, research strategies, paper outlining, as well as editing and citation help. Please feel free to contact us if you would like us to stop by your class for an introduction, or if you have a particular student to refer to us.
With the wide accessibility of the internet, there are virtually unlimited resources for practicing grammar rules and improving written English. If you have a student who has difficulty writing, or an ESL student seeking practice, contact us to arrange a 30-minute grammar session. Note: we may ask for information about the student's particular areas of difficulty in order to prepare appropriate exercises.
As the international student population increases, Watkins will be joining prestigious state institutions in offering Conversation Sessions to English as a Second Language speakers. Generally only 30 minutes in length, we offer these sessions to give international students another opportunity to practice conversational English.
Here at the Writing Center we also want to make ourselves available to needs we haven't identified. Professors and Staff members are encouraged to contact us with any needs, concerns, or suggestions. …Especially suggestions!
We're here to help, but help us help you!

When Steve Spurrier jumped back into the college ranks in 2005 was there anyone out there who thought he would fail?
Sure, his short stint in the NFL with the Washington Redskins was fairly unmemorable in terms of success, but the college game is where Spurrier belongs. It is tailor-made for the Ol' Ball Coach and vice versa.
The 1966 Heisman Trophy winning quarterback for the Florida Gators, Spurrier got his first collegiate head coaching gig at Duke, leading the Blue Devils to the 1989 ACC championship. He was named the ACC Coach of the Year in both 1988 and 1989.
Let that sink in for a second...Duke was relevant in the sport of football under Spurrier.
He used the successful run in Durham as a springboard to return to his alma mater in 1990. In 12 seasons in Gainesville, Spurrier's teams won seven SEC titles, ranked in the top-10 nine times and won a national title (1996 season). Spurrier finished up his tenure at Florida with an astounding record of 122-27-1, winning 81.7 percent of his games.
Now in his eighth season in Columbia, Spurrier has done the ground work that started paying off in 2011 and has certainly carried over to this season.
Still, Spurrier takes nothing for granted.
"I've been fortunate to be here. I do say 'fortunate' to be able to coach in the SEC. This is the 20th year. I feel fortunate to be here," said Spurrier at this year's SEC media event.
"We've had some good teams at South Carolina the last couple years. That is probably why I'm coaching. Our teams are getting better. We are recruiting better guys, and have an excellent group of assistant coaches, our athletic directors and boosters have built up the facilities up to the best in the conference and we are able to recruit outstanding players. We've still not won the SEC. That's our ultimate goal. We know it's not going to be easy. It will be extremely difficult. But that's our goal. That's what we're shooting for."
Spurrier made an immediate impact in Columbia, leading USC to a 7-5 record in his debut. The team finished second in the SEC-East that year, while Spurrier was tabbed the SEC Coach of the Year. It was more of the same in 2006, when South Carolina upped its win total to eight games and a win over Houston in the Liberty Bowl. It was a tale of two seasons in 2007. After racing out of the gate with six wins in the first seven games, South Carolina faltered in the second half and finished at just 6-6. Identical 7-6 records followed in 2008 and 2009, before South Carolina stepped up in 2010 with nine wins, including its first-ever victory over a top-ranked team, beating Alabama. Still, perhaps not ready to make the monumental leap, South Carolina fell victim to the Auburn Tigers and Cam Newton in the SEC Championship Game, losing a lopsided affair (56-17).
However, no longer satisfied with just being good, 2011 was a record-setting season in Columbia, as the Gamecocks won a school-record 11 games, capped off by a blowout of Nebraska in the Capital One Bowl (30-13).
This season is shaping up as an encore performance, thanks to wins in each of the first six games. Most impressive among them was last weekend's rout of then fifth-ranked Georgia. With the lopsided victory over the Bulldogs and losses by teams in front of them in the polls, the Gamecocks have now moved up to No. 3, their highest ranking since 1984.
Unlike the "Fun 'n Gun" days in Gainesville, Spurrier has changed things up in Columbia. The recipe for success is simple. South Carolina is getting it done with a bell cow in the backfield and stingy, aggressive defensive play.
Junior tailback Marcus Lattimore is a nightmare for opposing defenses and is the complete package, with great size, field vision, instincts and acceleration. Returning from a knee injury that cost him half of his sophomore season, Lattimore is starting to heat up, not good news for the rest of the SEC. He is averaging 4.7 yards per carry this year, amassing 549 yards and nine touchdowns through the first six games.
The defense does the rest and has been dominant at times, showing equal disdain for the run (83.9 ypg) and the pass (194.2 ypg). South Carolina completely shutdown a strong Georgia offense and is now allowing a mere 10.5 ppg, ranking fourth in the nation. The team has really made things difficult on opposing quarterbacks with 25 sacks through six games.
The difference-maker on the defensive side of the ball is sophomore end Jadeveon Clowney. The 6-foot-6 youngster has 25 tackles this season, with 11.5 coming behind the line of scrimmage, including a team-high 6.5 sacks. The 2011 SEC Defensive Freshman of the Year is just scratching the surface of his enormous talent and may not be staying much longer in Columbia, as the NFL is certainly beckoning.
Getting back to the basics is what seems to be working in Columbia these days, and in an era where throwing the football around the field is considered the norm, South Carolina's formula for success this year may be considered old-school and "thinking outside of the box."
Would you expect anything else from a guy known as the Ol' Ball Coach?

I am thinking of buying either the Sony Alpha A200 or the Nikon D60 and I am finding it difficult to decide. I see from the picture of the A200 that it has a Carl Zeiss lens, but the Sony A200 that I have seen for sale does not come with this lens. The reviewer has given image quality at 10 points. I am new to SLR cameras but I do believe that the image quality has a lot to do with the lens used. If the review has been written using the Carl Zeiss lens then doesn't that give a slightly false rating? Or should this camera come with a Carl Zeiss lens? As I said before I am new to photography and would appreciate any feedback on picture quality in relation to the camera used. Thanks.
You can buy the A200 with the Carl Zeiss lens shown, but it would be a lot more expensive. It normally comes with a standard Sony 18-70mm kit lens, which is obviously a lot cheaper. The quality of the Sony kit lens is actually pretty good, certainly better than some other manufacturers' kit lenses. I used the kit lens, the Zeiss lens and a Sony 70-300mm telephoto zoom when testing the A200, so my score for the image quality was based on the camera, not the lens, when compared to other cameras of similar price.
You can now pick a sony alpha 200 with sony's kit lens for under 𧶲 which on reflection is a brilliant buy. However, having just bought one and taken my various test shots I take with all my new cameras. In my opinion if you are on budget save yourself 𧵎+ and buy a FujiFilm S5800(or similar)!
Hello Mr. Smith and others!
Please, could You tell me which dslr camera is the best buy solutions? (seeing parameters: picture quality and performance):
-Sony A200 (KIT 18-70mm)
-Nikon D60 (KIT 18-55mm) or
-Canon EOS 1000D (KIT 18-55mm)
I decide that is 9AF (sony) and 7AF (canon)advantageous against nikon, but is it crucial?
But nikon and canon has better reputation than sony, is it relevant, or sony is a good choice regarding a lower price? Please, tell me your opinion?
im looking to start photography at school and of course need a fairly cheap dslr, i ahve spent alot of time looking around and this seems too pop up as the best. but i have been recommended quite strongly to go for a canon or a nikon. the only similar one too this camera is the canon 1000d for around £350 whereas i found this for £250. basically shall i listen to those chums who recomend the worse nikon's and canon's or just go take the risk with the sony ?
I have a Sony A200 and a Nikon D40, even though the Sony has more pixels I find the Nikon to produce crisper pictures and a better focusing system, although I have to admit I am no expert and these are only my own opinions.
i have just bought a sony a200 i have found it very easy to use and very light to hold i have allready been out using it and i find the quality very very good and clear i would recomend this camara to others my brother is know looking to bye one
I have just also bought a A200 and it is by far the best camera on the market for the money, the only trouble and downside is there is no live view, but hay hoe you do get what you pay for and for £250 you cant go wrong, if you are a beginner then look no further, a great investment.
I'm struggling to find this and a lense kit for £250, any pointers?
£300 seems to be the going rate these days... I certainly can't find anywhere selling it near £250 either
asda have it for £247
Hi guys Argos are selling the camera and lense kit for 225 as a managers special only available in Store. I know as I just managed to pick one up : )
i have one of these 200, i do believe its one of the worst cameras on the market, i dont claime to be a super picture taker, but i have used this camera for over 8 years, and to this day, using ever setting, i know, i cannot get this camera to shoot a clean clear picture. no matter the pic quality sucks big time... i wanted a camera that would talke sports pics at inside arenas , etc with enouhg speed for stop action.. this camera will not get the job done.. shooting inside at sports areas is useless. i have a nikon cool pic that takes better pics... my advise simple, you dont want this piece of crap, .. i made a mistake and listen to a sales person whom i though had some knowledge of cameras.. spent a lot of money at that time for nothing.. i wrote sony a letter years ago explaing that this camers would not do what they said it would do. never heard back from them, as of that time, i dont buy sony any more.. i will stick with canon or nikon.... my advise is stay away from sony cameras.
dont take the risk, this is the sorries camera on the market,, you will not like it ,,

The UST Women's Basketball team improved to 3-3 on the season by defeating the University of the Southwest Lady Mustangs 97-78 on Nov. 26 in Hobbs, New Mexico.
"This was a good win for a number of reasons," Head Coach Mike Ricks said. "It is our first road win in program history, our first win in the Red River Athletic Conference, and our third win in a row."
The Lady Celts shot the ball well for 40 minutes and continued their recent trend of red-hot three point shooting, finishing the game at just under 63 percent from beyond the arc. Leading the way was freshman Emily Sebo, who connected on 3 of her 4 attempts, with 22 points and 8 rebounds. Sophomore Gaby Guzman also chipped in behind the arc, making 2 of her 3 attempts, for 10 points and 2 steals.
"Anytime we shoot it well from three, it gives us opportunities to get the ball inside," Ricks said.
Not only did the Lady Celts score from the perimeter, but they dominated inside as well. Junior Amber Arceneaux-Francis led the physical Lady Celts frontcourt with 14 points and 14 rebounds, while junior Aujanee Armstrong continued her solid play with 17 points and 3 rebounds. Freshman Madeline Ali earned 11 points, and freshman Shelia Onyekwere scored 8 points, providing a much needed lift off the bench for the Lady Celts. For the game, the team shot an incredible 65 percent while holding the Lady Mustangs to 34 percent shooting from the field.
"We really looked very comfortable offensively," Ricks said. "Our shot selection was great. A lot of different individuals had great shooting performances."
The Lady Celts return home looking to continue their winning ways on Dec. 1, when they take on Huston-Tillotson University in Jerabeck Gym. Tip-off is set for 5:30 p.m.

went out on a limb and fabricated a recipe.
two goose breasts, cubed (1/2"x1/2") and screaming hot pan seared in EV Olive oil.
6 cups beef broth and two cups water
5 medium potatoes skinned and cubed
1 cup cooking white wine
1 1/2 onions loosely chopped
2 sections of minced garlic
1 tsp of oregano flakes
1 tpsp Louisiana hot sauce
pretty darn easy to make. simmer the potatoes in the broth for about 15min while searing the goose breast. add the meat and the rest of the ingredients to the broth/potatoes and simmer for 15ish minutes.
next time i may add some cabbage chunks just to see how it turns out. BTW, it makes a crapload of "soup". i have been eating on it for 3 days and still have at least 2 servings left.
