Do Helmets Correct "Flat Head" Syndrome?
The good news is that more parents are placing their babies are their back to sleep therefore reducing the risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). The risk of SIDS is much higher for babies who sleep on their side or stomach. These positions can put your baby's face directly into the mattress or sleeping area causing them to suffocate.
One side effect from following this important habit for baby's safety, is that the number of babies with what's known as "flat head" syndrome has increased.
One controversial treatment for treating flat head syndrome has been for the baby to wear a specially constructed helmet. These helmets are typically expensive.
A new study has looked at whether the helmets are actually effective and determined that they are about as good as letting the baby's head naturally reshape.
Researchers in the Netherlands looked at 84 babies who had moderate to severe flattening of the head. Starting when they were 6 months old, half of the babies wore a custom-made, rigid, closely fitting helmet for 23 hours a day over six months. The others received no treatment.
By the time the children were 2 years old, there was no significant difference in the degree of improvement in head shape between the two groups, nor in the number of them who made a full recovery to normal head shape -- 25.6 percent of those who wore helmets and 22.5 percent of those who did not, according to a journal news release.
Babies who wore the helmets also experienced side effects such as skin irritation (96%), an unpleasant smell (76%) and pain (33%). Cuddling with the baby was noted as being more difficult as well.
When the children reached 2 years of age, parents in both groups reported that they were generally satisfied with the shape of their child's head. Among parents whose babies wore helmets, the average satisfaction score was 4.6 out of 5, and among those whose babies had not received the treatment the score was 4.4 out of 5, the study found.
"Based on the effectiveness of helmet therapy, and the high prevalence of side effects and high costs, we discourage the use of a helmet as a standard treatment for healthy infants with moderate to severe skull deformation," concluded researcher Renske van Wijk, at the University of Twente, in Enschede, and colleagues.
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) says that the majority of flat head syndrome cases can be treated with physical therapy and other noninvasive measures.
The study was published in the online edition of BMJ.
If your baby's head has become misshapen from lying on his or her back, talk with your family doctor or pediatrician about what therapies might be helpful as your little grows out of the infant stage.
It's still very important to make sure your infant sleeps on his or her back.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
My dog does this too, she will take things she knows she is not suppose to and then she will show me, when I tell her to drop she runs, prob laughing at me. It seems like she acts out when I am there and when I'm gone she's very calm and isn't destructive. She has all the toys, tug kong and etc. she gets plenty of exercise, but she is quite frustrating. She is just shy of 11 months, so I feel your pain.

Yep, at that age (or at least at that age with those issues), you need to either be giving him your full attention or have him somehow restrained (crated, tethered to you, or in a stay are all good options) so he can't get into trouble.
He's not acting out for attention necessarily, he's acting out because it's fun! What dog doesn't like getting into smelly laundry and garbage? If he's bored and he can do it, why not? Even nipping you can be described that way. Sure he wants attention, he wants you to play! And when you turn around and swat him or chastise him, that's the start of play, right? Kind of? It's something to do, anyway!
So what you need to do is make extra sure that his need for exercise (both mental and physical) is being met--and young GSDs can be very smart and very energetic, so that can take a lot! And then otherwise, control his life so that he doesn't have the opportunity to get into trouble. As he matures a bit more (and you continue to provide him with enough exercise and mental stimulation), you should be able to relax your control without him getting into trouble, but at this point he's very much a baby still and is just trying to play and explore his environment.
Also, if you do choose to go the "stay" route, remember his age...don't expect him to stay there too long. Young'uns of all species only have so long of an attention span and you want to set him up for success by not expecting too much of him too soon. I personally prefer tethering the dog to me for that reason, because they have some freedom to move and figure out how they want to be but they're still not able to get into trouble.
Finally, one thing that worked for me with the playful nipping/jumping my dog used to do is to give a clear "I'm ignoring you" cue. I turn my back to him, cross my arms and look at the ceiling. He can do what he wants, I don't speak at all or move except to turn my back again if he comes around to my front, and I don't relax until he's been calm for a couple of seconds, at which point I'll pet him--going back to ignoring him if he reacts rudely. After a week or so of doing that consistently any time he was rude, all I had to do was cross my arms and look up for a second and he'd immediately chill out. I initially learned that trick for jumping but I found it very successful with nipping too, as long as you trust your dog not to escalate into biting.
Oh aren't they just the cutest when they're being puppies!!!
At 10 months, I believe it's time to ramp up that training, and being consistently consistent about it.
You want to brush your teeth in the morning? Put him in a sit / stay ... and reward when done (of course he might break it 5 times ... but don't give in!)
You want to do something in the kitchen? Put him in a sit / stay in the SAME spot you want him in all the time you're in the kitchen ... and be consistent ... and reward and reward!!!
He's having a field day right now because he doesn't have a lot of rules ... and he's a puppy ... and he doesn't know what he can / cannot do!
A simple NO won't do it!
When he takes the laundry out of the hamper ... it's your fault ... where were you that he was able to GET there in the first place? AHA ... you say ... I see ... yes ... every time your dog gets into something it shouldn't it's because you didn't teach him he can't BEFORE he did it!!!
So now that he knows he can do it ... it's going to be that much harder to stop! He self-rewards every time he takes something out of the hamper!
Don't let him out of your sight ... seriously ... attach his leash to you if you have to so he doesn't have the opportunity to get into trouble!
And yes, NILIF ifs awesome ... and so is exercise ... a happy dog is a tired dog!
Good luck, and have fun!
Welcome! :wave:
How much exercise is he receiving? How much training? Do you practice NILIF (nothing in life is free)?
Acts out for my attention
My fiance and I have a beautiful, pure bred 10-month-old GSD who has been with us since he was 8 weeks old. He is incredibly smart and has been easy to train, but he has become MUCH more attached and affectionate with me than my fiance, Mike. The issue is that when Koby isn't receiving my full attention, he acts out by taking laundry out of a tall laundry basket and carrying around the house, or taking things out of the garbage, or by nipping at my butt, thighs or anything else. He does not hurt me but my correction methods haven't fully worked yet and Mike is not having the same problem. I tried ignoring it, as bad attention is still attention; I've tried putting him in his cage to punish him so he can't have my attention; I've used a stern "no" and a combination of all of these but nothing is working. He does this typically when I am brushing my teeth or putting makeup on, washing dishes or working on my computer.
As he is our first, but definitely not our last GSD, I don't know if this is normal puppy behavior he will eventually grow out of or not. I would love any advice! Thanks!

The decision of the Turkish government to ban smoking in coffee shops has aroused fury among owners of the shops as well as disaffected customers who believe they have the right to light up. More than 10,000 coffee shop owners displayed their anger by gathering in Anakara to shout their defiance. They warned the government imposing a ban would crush their establishments and result in unhappy Turks. Among the protestors were many signs saying, "We Want A Smoking Initiative."
Shops owners claim at least 10,000 workers have been fired as shop owners prepare for a sharp drop in business once the ban goes into effect. Some protestors even threatened to go on a hunger strike unless their demands were respected. Of course, we wonder if during the hunger strike participants will be allowed to smoke.
Of course, inherent in these fears is the belief it is certain that customers will not come to coffee shops if they cannot smoke. That is an assumption that must be tested.

Following are four views from foreign newspapers regarding the Republican primary in the state of Florida:
Great Britain, The Independent:
"Humiiated Giuliani Set To Endorse McCain"
"Rudy Giuliani, whose dreams of becoming the American president were abruptly breached in the Republican primary in Florida last night will today signal his intention to bow out of the nomination contest and transfer his support to the winner, Senator John McCain."
Canada, Toronto Star:
"McCain Pulls Away From Pack"
"Arizona Senator John McCain has emerged as the front-runner in the race for the Republican presidential nomination, winning yesterday's crucial Floriday primary and expecting an endorsement today from the vanquished former New York mayor, Rudy Giuliani."
Germany, Der Spiegel:
"John McCain Trumps Romney, Giuliani In Florida"
"The Republican field has been looking more like a scrum than a campaign. With John McCain winning the primary in Florida on tuesday though, the race is now a two-man spring to next week's Super Tuesday and Big Mac looks to have the advantage."
Australia, Sydney Morning Herald:
"Ascendant McCain Leaves Rivals Trailing"
"JOHN MCCAIN has become the frontrunner in a Republican nominee race that could be decided as soon as next week. Senator McCain cemented his claim with a hard-fought win over M itt Romney in th e Florida primary on Tuesday."

Michael Phelps and Why We Love to Watch Him Win
November 20, 2008 -- 5:49 am
Michael Phelps, competitive swimming, winning, losing and what swimming means to me
Watching Michael Phelps made me remember how swimming has always been a part of my life since growing up in Greenville, KY "Muhlenberg Co.". My mother was my swim coach and my dad was extremely supportive of all my athletic endeavors. I remember driving back and forth 5 days a week to Owensboro, 45 miles one way for swim practice. Now that was true devotion for a parent.
Michael Phelps
At swim practice the older guys on the team loved to pull pranks, and especially on me because I guess they new I could take it. Remember the old style starting blocks…….well let's just say "they were true blocks". A big rectangle was cut out of the block for the backstroke start, you remember because no swimmer growing up in the 70's forgets that. Wow, how technology has changed!
Anyway, the seniors on the team use to cram me in the starting block, sit on it, and then spray the cold water hose into the backstroke start opening until I FROZE into submission. Oh those were the days, but believe it not great memories as I started my adventure into year around swimming.
The highlight at the end of every swim practice was always the HOT SHOWER afterwards. Oh man, I could stand there forever and even today I do the same. Before the one hour journey home, our first stop was a "squirrel steak" from the Ponderosa. At the time the best I ever had, now, well let's just say I have had better. Then came, the completion of homework by flashlight while driving the winding bumpy roads back to Muhlenberg Co.
Now, fast forward 30 plus years and you have history repeating itself with the most amazing swimming performance of all time. I grew up in the era of Mark Spitz, the nylon stars and stripes suit, the long bushy hair, the mustache, the one swimmer we all looked up to. The 7 gold medals was a phenomenal accomplishment in one Olympic Games only to be surpassed by 8 gold medals by the greatest swimmer of all time Michael Phelps. I vividly recall the 72 Olympics in Munich, so to watch Michael Phelps 36 years later repeating history came full circle for me as a swimmer.
Today the sport of swimming in some ways is still the same as it was 30 years ago. Every young age grouper across America still has a dream to one day become an Olympic swimmer. Every adult fitness swimmer, well….. "the older we get the better we were".
Oh yes the technology has changed with the hi tech competition swimsuits and the low profile goggles, but one thing for sure, the passion for swimming in us all will last the test of time.

Cyclone season clean up a hazard to kids
Oct 08, 2013 , 3:54 PM by Vicki Kerrigan
You could be fined 200 bucks if you place a fridge out on the street and do not remove the door.
Placing white goods onto the street for the pre cyclone season clean up is common place around Darwin and Palmerston at the moment.
But a NT police officer is worried about the safety risk fridges, washing machines and dryers could pose to young children who want to play hide and seek.
Could a young child end up stuck inside a fridge on the street in the heat? This is of concern to Senior Sergeant Gary Smith from NT Police.

'The Sabres' need for size and toughness hasn't gone away. If anything, it became greater when Hodgson arrived for the bigger, nastier Kassian. Hodgson's dimensions are deceiving, however. His 6-foot frame looks like it adds up to more than 185 pounds when he's not wearing equipment. He has the big, strong hands of a bricklayer and thick, muscular legs.'

Another View -- David Sherman: Going after 'assault weapons' won't stop mass shootings
The answer for the anti-gun activists is to go after the hardware, specifically, the AR-15 "assault rifle." The fact is that at close range, a semi-automatic 12-gauge shotgun would have been far more lethal in Newtown. Yet I must admit that so-called assault weapons seem to be the choice of crazed kids. Why? Why was Adam Lanza dressed in military-style battle dress? Why were Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold dressed in goth-style, long overcoats at Columbine?
The obvious answer is role-playing video games and movies that show battle-dressed, assault-weapon carrying killers. These kids spend hours a day viciously murdering people with no remorse in their video worlds. Most understand the consequences and can separate fantasy from reality, but clearly some can't. They have an irresistible urge to act out these videos for real. They must become that battle-dressed, assault-weapon carrying murderer.
In the '50s and early '60s, gun violence was, for the most part, for good. John Wayne defended America against its enemies and citizens against bad cowboys. Today, TV and movies visualize a world of violence that reaches all societies and neighborhoods. The news is no better. The worst part is that this has become the new "normal." We know it's happened before, and we know it will happen again. Law enforcement officials were concerned about "copycat" crimes after Newtown. That horrendous act actually appeals to a fringe element of our society.
To disarm this fringe element and other criminals, many want to ban certain types of firearms. Statistics prove that banning so-called "assault weapons" is a useless demonstration. According to the FBI, U.S. murders in 2010 by rifles (which include the AR-15) were 358. Handguns are clearly the weapon of choice for murders, as they were used in 6,009 murders. Knives were responsible for 1,704 murders, almost five times as many as rifles, and hands, fists and feet were the weapons of choice in 745 murders, more than double the number for rifles!
Already, federal law requires those purchasing any firearm to undergo a check with NICS - the National Instant Criminal Background Check System. Anyone who has committed a felony becomes ineligible for a legally owned firearm. The obvious gap is those who have never committed a crime, but are mentally unstable. If you really want to solve the problem, consider the following steps:
. Require mental health specialists to report those patients they believe should be ineligible to the FBI for inclusion in its database. I know that would be a difficult law to enact, but the criteria could be worked out and the method developed.
. Require that anyone committing a crime with a firearm faces a mandatory prison sentence.
. Make anyone found with an illegal firearm shown through a ballistics check to have been involved in a crime liable for that crime. That would reduce the sales of illegal weapons on the street.
. Impose serious regulations on the violence level of video games and who is legally able to play them. Include real consequences for those selling these games to minors.
Although I own and on occasion carry firearms, I am not a "gun nut." If I could afford it, I'd be a collector of historical firearms, but my firearms will only be used for sport shooting and, if necessary, to defend myself or others from violent criminals. Don't disarm the honest citizens. Don't disarm me. Go after the criminals and mentally insane.
David Sherman is retired and living in New Boston.

Bushings are available in increments of .001" from .185" through .199" and .218" through .343". The easiest way to tell the bushing size needed is to measure your loaded rounds at the neck. This caliper or micrometer reading indicates bullet diameter plus twice the thickness of the neck. The bushing diameter must measure less than this, we suggest .002" to .003" smaller. Taking into account the spring-back of the case neck after sizing, this would give you .001" to .002" "grip" on the bullet.

CZ's have a pretty durable finish so don't worry about having to have it coated with lube/preservative, unless you're storing it for a long time.
I have numerous handguns that have been stored in their original foam cased boxes since the 80's (both stainless and blued) and there have been no issues with their finish.
Being that the SP01 has a surface more durable than a simply blued firearm it will not be effected.
You can purchase a silicone impregnated cloth and simply wipe down the outside of the gun every time you take it out.
The plastic bag can possibly have a negative effect (if stored for a long time without proper lubrication). I have seen guns stored in plastic bags with visible finger print rust marks. These are guns that were handled and not wiped down, then stored in plastic bags. Through time (not sure how long), the moisture left behind rusted.
I happen to also have the SP01 and love it! The Kadet kit fit mine after a couple light passes with a file.

Frank Harmon, FAIA, Mark McInturff, FAIA, and Ray Calabro, AIA, explained to attendees at residential architect's fourth annual Reinvention Symposium, taking place this week in Charleston, S.C., how they arrive at their modern interpretations of architecture through the lens of traditional forms and historical references.
The architects sat on a panel entitled "From Bauhaus Modern to Our House Modern." This year's three-day conference—Looking Back without Anger: Integrating Our Past with Our Future—explores the issue of style and their convergence in 21st-century architecture.
"Old buildings have a lot to teach us," Harmon said, explaining how the rural tobacco buildings of his native North Carolina countryside inform his architecture. His work, the Raleigh-based architect and North Carolina State University professor said, is rooted in site, context, and the programmatic requirements that yield his interpretation of modernism. Still, Harmon says, "It's not about the style but about the particulars."
McInturff agreed. "I see modernism through the lens of landscape, material, and detail," the Bethesda, Md.-based architect and professor at the University of Maryland school of architecture said. Though he brings no "baggage" to his new designs, McInturff said, "We need to stop pretending that we came from nowhere." He explained his architecture as "subversive or conciliatory modernism that works from the same shapes" as traditional forms.
For his part, Calabro said his firm, Bohlin Cywinksi Jackson, focuses on the landscape, the context, and the needs of the clients. The bottom line, Calabro said, is "that we are designing places for people, no matter what style [they happen to be]."

Ellen Schön, a member of the Fine Art faculty since 2002, teaches Form Development in Clay and 3D Art
Ellen Schön
Professional Title: Adjunct Fine Arts Faculty and Clay Studio Supervisor
Areas of Academic Focus and Expertise: Fine Arts
Area of Work and Concentration at Lesley: Ceramics and Sculpture
Representative List of Recent Courses Taught: Form Development in Clay
Since clay is a material linked to earliest human expression in nearly every culture around the world, in what ways can we draw on those historical sources, yet transform them to develop a personal voice? In this advanced level course, students interpret sources, making in-depth, thematic series of clay forms. The content of students work is self-directed, depending on interest and experience with the material. Core Clay
An intensive survey of ceramic form and process. Through structured exercises and individual exploration, students build a repertoire of core technical skills which can be applied to both ceramic sculpture and clay vessels. Demonstrations cover wheel throwing, hand building, surface treatment, glaze mixing and application, as well as kiln loading and firing methods. Intro to 3-D Art I
Emphasis is on exploring the sculptural potential of a variety of materials. By the end of the course, students should have a group of work which demonstrates their understanding of the relationship between concept, material, and process in creating personally expressive three-dimensional objects. As well, students should have an enhanced aesthetic awareness and appreciation of sculpture from a range of cultures and historical periods.

'Rochester billionaire B. Thomas Golisano now stands as the best hope for a Sabres deal, but he has done little so far to inspire confidence. There are few details on any current bid, and the structure of the last one almost guaranteed rejection by the financial referees tasked with protecting Adelphia's creditors. Golisano's first job is to avoid the kind of secrecy that earned Hamister an initial burst of public criticism.'

text: PISTONS: Joe Dumars Q&A - Part II the interview was decent enough in that joe was pretty candid. but to me it seems clear he's okay with rolling the dice this season in exchange for getting quality pieces this summer (where he notes the pistons having more cap room than anyone except OKC). i guess we'll see...but i wouldn't expect any more moves. while it's disappointing (and a little more frustrating as a season-ticket holder spending a lot of $), it may actually be what's best for the pistons long-term.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Good Review. I bought a pair of these myself (orange and grey) about 2 or 3 weeks ago and love them. Did you get them heat molded?
|Solid, my man. Great review. I like that you kept it pretty straight forward and close to the topic at hand. I just bought a pair of these and cannot wait to wear them around my apartment like a retard haha. I'll be sure to take your advice and break them in. Also, thanks for the info. I did not know they were mold-able to your foot!!! That's legit. How are the soles on them? Do they provide the right amount of support? Some people recommend getting custom molded souls for boots. Whats your take?
Thanks for your feedback.
I just picked these up and wont have a chance to try them out until next week. I am now really looking forward to it.
Review: 2011 Thirty-Two Lashed - Boots
Product: Thirty-Two Lashed - Boots, size 9.5 (Black,White,Black)
Setup Used: 2010 151 Never Summer Evo + 2010 Rome 390's L/XL
Mountain: Schweitzer Mtn, Northern Idaho
Terrain: Open Runs, Steeps, Lots of Trees
Conditions: Fresh groomers, Packed Powder, Heavy Wind-Blown Powder, Foggier then shit
Rider Skill: Freeride(Expert) Freestyle(Beginner)
Intended use: All-Mountain riding and park.
Flex Rating: 5/10
Weight: Light
Heat Moldable Liner: Yes
Having become a snowboard-equipment-philiac in the last 6 months, after not knowing how to change my binding angles, I discovered that it was time for some new boots. I have been riding 32-Prions for about 4 years, with over a hundred days on them so they are pretty spent,(very soft, packed out, boot shredding). Having really liked these boots before they got thrashed, I figured I'd incur a little brand loyalty and give out the new Lashed a try first.
From the moment of tightening them on in the store, I was amazed at how much better the fit was when compared with my old boots. One of the big issues I ended up having with the Prions was that the inner Boa Lacing would get tight on your leg/calf, but there was really nothing to lock your heal into place. Therefor the boots would get nice and tight around the arch of my foot, but would leave the heal and toes swimming, causing me to essentially pivot my foot back and forth like a see-saw.
On the Lashed, instead of having the inner-Boa on the calf, it's located right where your foot transitions to your leg. The new location forces your heel into place, and locks it there. Making sure your heel doesn't swim is pretty huge, so this was a big design upgrade. The other big thing I noticed with the fit was that the foot-laces had way more play as far as getting the boot tighter on the front of your foot. I was a little worried getting the laces as tight as they were would cause too much tension stress on the lacers and cause them to rip, but they seem fine so far and appear to be pretty flexible.
Picking up these boots, you notice how light they are. Once you put them on and walk around, you notice it even more. I notice a huge difference in how swift I can walk when wearing clunky rain boots compared with slippers, so as soon as I started walking around they felt less like clunky snowboard boots and more like regular boots due to the weight. Once disadvantage I do notice with the newer lighter boots, is that they likely won't last as long compared with some of the older clunkers. My Prions are still in relatively good condition despite being abused for such a long time, where I kinda doubt you could get the same amount of life out of the Lashed. So going into the investment you have to note your trading maybe a longer lasting boot for a higher-performance boot.
Right off the chairlift, I had to adjust my riding. While these aren't hard-boots by any means, they are way stiffer then my worn out Prions. As I soon noticed, this was a very good thing, because due to the stiffness I had way more control of the board, especially for sticking big consistent turns. Also due to the stiffness, I noticed I had a smoother ride when hitting bumps, chunks, and monks, making the board more stable and less likely to kick out of on me. On the groomers, I had more confidence to hall-ass and not worry about every little chunk on the run. Since it was foggier then shit however, and we got about 4"in of new, I rode in the trees most of the day.
Now the new snow was pretty wet, and very wind blown, so you had to navigate your lines even more to avoid flying off wind-cornices into a tree. It took a little adjusting to the new stiffness, but I found I had a little more control making quick skid-turns when riding through trees, roots and wind moguls in close quarters. The NS Evo is a board that likes to fly off things, rather then cut through things, so I felt the extra bit of dampening helped keep my board from flying all over the place.
I'm not much of a park rider yet, but I can do butters and some flatland tricks. I think if your a jib-king you would have to break these boots in pretty good before they felt soft enough for you, but I had no problems flexing, popping and spinning the board.
Conclusion: These are excellent boots for the boarder who likes to really do everything. The tightening system does things right to keep your foot where it's supposed to go, has a comfortable interior that's heat-moldable, and is light enough to really notice the difference. Since this boot is middle of the run for flexiness, I think a dedicated Jibber might think these are too stiff, (you can always ride them until they are softer) and the dedicated mega-speed groomer guy might think they aren't stiff enough. If you find yourself hitting everything on the mountain however, I don't think you can go wrong with the Lashed.

2007-2008 Track Signees
Nov. 16, 2006
LUBBOCK, Texas - With the completion of the early signing period, the Texas Tech track and field program has the addition of 11 newcomers, as announced by head coach Wes Kittley Thursday. Eight women and two men signed a National Letter of Intent to join the Red Raider squad next season, with one joining in January. The class includes 10 freshmen and a standout transfer from South Plains College.
For the men, the Red Raiders have added depth to sprints, hurdles, and jumps with the signings of Aaron Smith (South Plains), Gil Roberts (Milwood (Okla.) HS) and Wouter LeRoux (Pretoria, South Africa).
Jumper Smith joins Tech as a transfer from South Plains College and will be a junior for the Red Raiders next fall. The Seagraves, Texas, native was the 2006 USA Junior and NJCAA national champion in the long jump. He finished fifth at the IAAF World Junior Championships in Beijing, China, and currently holds the South Plains long jump record with a distance of 26'-4.25". In 2005, he championed the 1A State long jump as a senior in high school. His personal best triple jump distance is 51'-4".
Roberts signs with Tech as a 200M and 400M specialist from Milwood High in Oklahoma City, Okla. In 2006, he won the 400M race at the AAU National meet with a personal best time of 47.04. Roberts placed second at the Great SW Classic in the 400M. Track and Field News ranked Roberts the nation's No. 4 fastest junior. While in high school, he took the title at the 3A State meet in the 200M, 400M, 400M relay and 1600M relay.
LeRoux is a native of Pretoria, South Africa, and has competed in the 200M, 400M and 400M hurdles. He finished sixth at the 2004 World Junior Championships in the 400M hurdles and second as a member of the 4x400M South African relay squad. The relay time of 3:04.50 set a new African Junior record. His personal bests include: 49.25 in the 400M hurdles, 47.10 in the 400M and 21.51 in the 200M.
Eight women will join the women's track and field squad as freshman in the fall of 2007. The team welcomes the addition of four distance runners, two pole vaulters, an 800M specialist and a 400M/high jumper.
Addison LeMaster comes to Texas Tech from Tulia High in Tulia, Texas. She will compete in distance running after participating in cross country and the 800M and 400M during her prep years. At the 2006 2A State cross country meet, LeMaster took the top spot with a run of 11:37.10. Her best time in cross country was at the 2005 2A State meet when she finished as the runner up with a clocking of 11:32. At the 2006 2A State track and field competition, she finished second in the 800M and fifth in the 400M.

At district track in April 2006, she clocked her personal best time in the 1600M with a clocking of 5:23.
Pole vaulter Katie Veith joins Tech from Homestead High in Fort Wayne, Ind. She ranked as the No. 1 high school pole vaulter in the United States in both indoor and outdoor in 2006. Veith is only the second high school athlete to vault 14' indoors in U.S. history. She is a two-time USA Junior Olympic champion, the 2006 Nike Indoor and Outdoor High School National champion and also took the pole vault title at the indoor and outdoor Indiana State competition. Honors for Veith include being named the 2006 DyeStat Female Athlete of the Year in pole vault and the 2006 Gatorade Track and Field Athlete of the Year.
Jessica Gibbs is also a pole vaulting addition for the Red Raiders. She is a skilled athlete in different facets as she was a 2006 All-American cheerleader and also a 2004 Texas Power Lifting medalist. A current student at Jim Ned High in Abilene, Texas, Gibbs was the 2006 Texas 2A State champion in pole vault. At the same competition, she was a state finalist for the 4x200M and 4x400M relay teams.

Arsenal legend Thierry Henry has begun his second season with the New York Red Bulls of the MLS and USA.Arsenal.com will be tracking his progress throughout the season.
As the MLS kicks-off its 16th season, the striker is hoping to lead the Red Bulls to their first first-ever MLS Cup.
Each week, we'll provide a brief look at the Arsenal legend's performances for the Red Bulls.
New York Red Bulls 1-0 Seattle SOunders
Saturday, March 19
Red Bull Arena – Harrison, NJ
Thierry Henry and his Red Bull teammates kicked off the season at home against the Seattle Sounders on Saturday. After a disappointing end to the 2010 season, The New York Red Bulls regrouped and have emerged as one of the favorites to win the 2011 title.
With the departure of Juan Pablo Angel to the LA Galaxy, Henry picked up a new strike partner in 18-year-old Juan Agudelo, as well as a new role – as team captain.
To the delight of an energized crowd at Red Bull Arena, it took only four minutes for Henry to get his first scoring opportunity. The Frenchman scuffed his shot but still had enough on it to force a diving save by Seattle keeper Kasey Keller.
Four minutes later, Henry created another chance when he found Agudelo behind the Seattle defense in the eighth minute. The Colombian-born U.S. international drew contact from Seattle defender Jhon Kennedy Hurtado and the referee pointed to the spot. Henry stepped up to take the kick, but his low drive was tipped aside by Keller.
The score line remained even deep into the second half when midfielder Teemu Tainio released Agudelo with a long pass up the middle. The striker managed shrug off a challenge from Seattle's Leonardo Gonzalez, and fired a right-footed shot past Keller for his first MLS goal.
In the dying minutes, Seattle had one a glorious chance to equalize when they were awarded a free kick just outside the area. Mauro Rosales tapped the ball to Fredy Monteiro, who's rocket was saved by Sutton.
The win sets up a key early-season clash against Eastern Conference rival Columbus Crew next week in Ohio.

Does anyone use a ghost sight? Ive been looking at them and it makes sence but then I often dont so who knows?
I've only used them on long guns... like my Benelli Super Nova... I don't know if I'd like them on a pistol...
I've tried a pistol with them once and did not like them. Sight acquisition is more difficult.
I have them on my 6' Ruger GP 100 357, my old eyes like them just fine...............
I have a red dot on my NEO and it's fun. no challange at all hitting stuff
Works great for me on my Blackhawk. I switched from the factory due to "old eye" focus problems.
Im still trying to figure out why they cant just call them peep sights like they used to:-) :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
Jeff Cooper popularized the term "ghost ring." It is actually a large-aperture rear sight. When used properly, the eye is close enough to the aperture that it becomes very fuzzy and indistinct - appearing to "ghost out." The eye instinctively centers all images, so the eye automatically centers the front sight within the "ghost" aperture, and it does it very fast because the large design admits so much light.
This ONLY works if the eye is close enough to the aperture for it to "ghost out," so it obviously doesn't work this way on a pistol. I think it's a misnomer on pistol sights, but it works great on slug shotguns and practical (non-target) rifles.
A Ghost Ring isn't necessarily the same as a peep sight, by the way, which may have a small aperture for more precise aiming. Ghost rings are intended for fast sighting balanced with accurate shooting, rather than utmost precision.
They seem to work for some people. I once watched a revolver shooter clean a table of bowling pins VERY quickly using a 625 with peep sights.

Every Tuesday, we'll feature the best travel bargain we've seen all week right here, on our blog. Be the first to find out which deals make the cut by subscribing to our blog (top right) or signing up for our weekly deals newsletter.
The Deal: Save $400 ($200 per person) on Virgin Vacations' low-priced Ireland escorted tour package, which bundles airfare, six nights' accommodations, transportation and even meals into one convenient clump of an Irish adventure. The whole itinerary is preplanned. Travelers will start in Dublin (roundtrip airfare from select U.S. cities is included), and then travel by motorcoach to Waterford, Killarney, the Cliffs of Moher and Galway.
Prices start at $1,399 per person before the discount, bringing your package total to $1,199 plus taxes and fees after the $200 savings is subtracted. Taxes, which are additional, generally amount to about $96 per person. (Gratuities are extra as well.) We went through the booking process, used the promotion code and found that the final cost of the air-inclusive package came to $1,295.21 per traveler, departing from New York.
The Catch: This discount is only available for departures on November 19. You'll need to pack something warm. Still, with the world economy in its current state, we're growing fonder of the idea of cut-rate off-season travel. (Same experience. Lower price. Less sun.) Plus, the Irish make a mean hand-knit Aran sweater.
The Competition: Do package tours and motorcoach transfers make you want to burn your suitcase? (If you're nodding, check out Eight Tours for People Who Don't Like Tours.) Aer Lingus is offering a discounted seven-day fly and drive package that combines roundtrip airfare and a car rental, but leaves the rest of the planning to you. Prices start at $729 per person plus taxes and fees for travel in September and October.
Find these bargains and more money-saving offers in our Vacation Package Deals.

Presented as a single volume on your Mac, Fusion Drive automatically and dynamically moves frequently used files to Flash storage for quicker access, while infrequently used items move to the hard disk. As a result you'll enjoy shorter startup times, and as the system learns how you work you'll see faster application launches and quicker file access. Fusion Drive manages all this automatically in the background.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to configure Fusion Drive?
When ordered with a Fusion Drive, your iMac or Mac mini is pre-configured.
Can external USB, FireWire, or Thunderbolt hard drives be added to Fusion Drive?
An external drive cannot be used as part of a Fusion Drive volume. Fusion Drive is designed to work with an internal hard disk drive and internal flash storage.
Can I add a partition to the hard disk with Fusion Drive?
Using Disk Utility, you can add one partition to the hard disk on Fusion Drive. Once you add the partition, the "plus" symbol in Disk Utility to add additional partitions will be grayed out. You cannot partition the Flash storage.
If I create a hard disk partition is it part of Fusion Drive?
The additional partition is not part of Fusion Drive. The new partition is a separate volume that is physically located on the hard disk drive.
Can I add a Windows partition?
You can create one additional partition on the hard disk with Fusion Drive. You can create either a Mac OS X partition or a Windows partition.
If creating a Windows partition, use Boot Camp Assistant to create it, not Disk Utility. From the Go menu, choose Utilities. Then, double-click Boot Camp Assistant and follow the onscreen instructions. For more information on Boot Camp see the Boot Camp support page.
Note: Boot Camp Assistant in OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2 and earlier does not support 3TB hard drive configurations.
I receive a "disk is too small for this operation" message when creating a partition. Why?
The partition you are trying to create has a larger size than free space available on the hard disk drive. Reduce the size of the partition you are trying to create and try again.
Can a Fusion Drive be mounted on another system in Target Disk Mode?
Yes, but the system attempting to mount the Fusion Drive in Target Disk Mode must have OS X Mountain Lion version 10.8.2 or later. A Fusion Drive will not appear as a Target Disk Mode volume or startup disk on earlier versions of OS X.
Can third-party disk utilities be used with a Fusion Drive?
Third party disk utilities may or may not work with a Fusion Drive. Check with the third-party software vendor to check for compatibility with a Fusion Drive.
I'm using video capture software and it reports frame drops during sustained captures. What could be wrong?
Your project's capture requirements may exceed the sustained capture rate available to your Fusion Drive. Try capturing a smaller segment of the source or reduce its resolution.
I've recently reset NVRAM (Non-Volatile Random Access Memory, also known as PRAM) and now my Fusion Drive is starting up more slowly. How can I fix this?
The reset removed your Startup Disk setting from NVRAM. To access the setting, choose System Preferences from the Apple () menu. Then, click Startup Disk and then Macintosh HD. Note: You may have to click the lock icon at the bottom of the window and enter your system administrator password to manage this setting.
How can I restart into OS X Recovery on a Fusion Drive Mac?
- Shutdown your computer.
- Press the power button to turn it back on, and then press and hold Command-R until you see the OS X Recovery screen.
- Select the Recovery HD.
For more information see OS X: About OS X Recovery.
Learn more
- The version of Disk Utility that comes with Fusion Drive is unique. Earlier versions of Disk Utility can't be used with a Fusion Drive.
- If your system will not start because you see a flashing question mark or another alert:
- Press the Power button and hold it down to power off your system.
- Press the Power button again. After you hear the startup chime, press and hold Command-Option-R to start up to the Internet version of OS X Recovery.
- A globe should appear with a "Starting Internet Recovery" message. It is now OK to release Command-Option-R.
- A progress bar should appear and Internet Recovery should start and ask you to select a language.
- Once you select a language, click Disk Utility in the window that appears and then click Continue.
- If your Fusion Drive can be fixed with Disk Utility, you'll see a Disk icon with red lettering. Click the disk icon.
- A dialog box appears offering to fix the Fusion Drive (shown above). Caution: Clicking Fix will erase your Fusion Drive. If you have a Time Machine backup of your Fusion Drive Mac, see Mac 101: Time Machine for information on how to restore from a Time Machine backup once the drive has been erased.

With the amount of money in the game these days I am amazed how one of the financial 'superpowers' has not managed to go a whole league season unbeaten. For me it only emphasises just what an incredible achievement that was back in 2003/04.
I mention this of course because as of Sunday that accolade remains unique in the modern game, something us Gooners will forever be proud of.
It finished off a pretty good weekend all round, even if our deserved victory on Saturday was laced with an element of controversy.
On a chilly old day in north London we all knew in the pre-match build up three points were paramount so to go home with that was pleasing.
We knew it would be a tough game too, with our visitors already proving this season they can beat anyone on their day. As a result, sharpness was important and we were hugely better than last week on that front, especially when we didn't have the ball.
The Baggies certainly weren't in a hurry when the ball wasn't in play, even in the opening 15 minutes or so, as good an example as any I feel that they definitely would have been happy with a no score draw.
I don't really want to add a great deal to the debate over the first penalty incident. Santi has said he was clipped when he turned and to be fair only he knows! For me however, the media frenzy it has created (just like with Eduardo a few years ago) is almost beyond belief. It is almost as if they have not watched any other games this season. I'm just a mere fan and I know I could put together a huge dossier of similar 'incidents' where only the players involved know what happened.
But we are Arsenal, we are used to media 'attention'.
We thoroughly deserved to win the game on Saturday and that will do me as we look forward to our League Cup quarter-final up at Bradford.
A fixture that has a classic cup tie feel about it sees well over 4,000 of us Gooners head to Yorkshire on what I'm sure will be a cold December evening.
Our noise can only help as we try to reach yet another semi-final.
Come on you reds!

'The foremost topic was the status of Brian Campbell. "We continue to communicate. We've spoken over the last couple days and I expect we will again over the next few days," Regier said, regarding Campbell. "Money and term has been discussed." When asked what the chances of getting a deal done before Tuesday's 3:00pm trade deadline were, Regier stated that it's "too early to tell," but the two sides will "just keep working on it."'

May Nabs Two In-State Standouts in First Recruiting Class
By Justin Grones (@GronesGB)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) – First-year women's tennis head coach Sommer May has announced her first recruiting class, a talented tandem of in-state talent ready to share their skills with the program next season. Green Bay Southwest's Samantha Pedersen and Maria Neff of Eau Claire Regis will join the Phoenix roster for the 2014-15 campaign, May announced on Tuesday.
Pedersen is coming off a successful senior campaign at Green Bay Southwest, which ended in a third-place finish at this year's WIAA Division I State Individual Tournament. With 121 career wins, she was named Team MVP this season while also serving as a team captain. In addition to being successful on the tennis court, she can also be found on the basketball court as a member of the Trojans' varsity girls' basketball team.
"I am thrilled to have Samantha join our team next fall—she has an all-court game, tremendous athletic ability and has proven her doubles success against the best players in the state," May said.
A four-time State Individual qualifier, Neff finished her senior season with an impressive 21-8 record at No. 1 singles. She was a team captain during the 2013 season, and is also a member of the National Honor Society.
"It's very exciting to gain a player with Maria's competitive playing experience," May said. "She has a great work ethic, and tremendous passion for the sport."
Currently sporting the smallest and youngest roster in the Horizon League with four freshmen and two sophomores, the two signees will provide valuable depth on Green Bay's roster next season—and won't have to wait long to gain playing experience.
"Not only are Samantha and Maria great tennis players, but they're great people. I have high expectations that both will make an immediate impact on our program next season," May said.
With the Fall 2013 portion of the schedule complete, Green Bay will resume its 2013-14 campaign on Jan. 25 at home against South Dakota State.

When choosing a type of culture to make yogurt, cheese, or other cultured products you may come across a variety of terminology in describing the type of culture. Two competing terms you will probably run across are "reusable cultures" and "direct-set cultures."
These two are competing in that while they both do the same job in inoculating your culture, they are used or maintained in very different ways. So let's explore what makes these different and similar.

Suggested Parking: Rams Head Deck
Look Back At The Construction Process
With the 2009 opening of the state-of-the-art Boshamer Stadium, the University of North Carolina baseball program can now call one of the finest facilities in all of collegiate baseball home.
The completely new facility, built within the same footprint as the old Boshamer Stadium, brings incredible upgrades to the program, and the changes allow Tar Heel student-athletes to compete at the highest level in an atmosphere unlike any other venue in collegiate baseball.
Located on Ridge Road in the heart of the Carolina campus, the site of Boshamer Stadium has been the home of the Diamond Heels since the late 1960s when Emerson Field was razed due to University expansion. Ground was broken on the new stadium in October 2007, and the team moved into its brand-new home in February 2009.
The original Boshamer was opened in 1972 and hosted five Atlantic Coast Conference Tournaments, as well as NCAA regionals in 1983, 2006 and 2007. The Tar Heels closed "The Bosh" in style with a Super Regional victory over South Carolina in 2007 to advance to the program's sixth College World Series.
Boshamer Stadium was a gift from 1917 Carolina graduate and textile industrialist Cary C. Boshamer of Gastonia, N.C. The playing surface at the new facility - Bryson Field - honors former letterwinner Vaughn Bryson and his wife Nancy, both 1960 graduates of the UNC School of Pharmacy. The Brysons are long-time supporters of the baseball program and the University.
Boshamer Stadium has a listed capacity of 4,100 with room for overflow crowds of more than 5,000. There is chairback seating throughout the facility, and fans enjoy clean sightlines throughout the seating bowl, a wider concourse and vastly improved restroom, concession and merchandise facilities.
The concourse level also features a Hall of Honor space on the third base line that offers stunning views of the action. Additionally, ten picnic tables will be scattered throughout the facility, and a small grass area, reminiscent of the grassy bank at the old stadium, is located on the first base line.
A new stadium entrance, featuring Steinbrenner Family Courtyard, creates a scenic gateway to the ballpark.
While Tar Heel fans will certainly enjoy the improvements, the Carolina team will have scores of state-of-the-art amenities at their disposal as they continue to build one of the top programs in college baseball.
The new facility, which is located just 25 feet from Avery Dorm, where most players reside, houses a 2,450-square foot clubhouse complete with a sparkling locker room dressing area, equipment room, meeting rooms, a study hall area and a players' lounge that features two 52-inch flat screen televisions, pool and ping pong tables and an Xbox video game system. There are 35 flat screen TVs throughout the facility.
Players also have access to a video room with the most complete individual computer analysis software. In the video room, the Tar Heels can view footage from every practice, scrimmage, at-bat and pitch. The stadium features three permanently mounted cameras that record all the action from a different angle. Additionally, there is wireless internet access throughout the clubhouse.
An area for pregame and postgame meals is also included in the clubhouse area.
Carolina baseball student-athletes will have access to a 2,850-square foot weight room with an adjacent training room that includes a hydro-therapy center with hot and cold plunge pools, as well as an office for the baseball training staff.
Also connected to the clubhouse is a covered indoor/outdoor hitting and pitching practice facility. This 6,200-square foot climate controlled, Astroturf area has space for three batting cages, three pitching machines, a soft toss and batting tee station and a pitching area with three dirt pitching mounds. The pitching machines located behind each mound will be available to players at all times. The building can also be used for infield work.
The indoor facility is well lit with skylights and has three garage doors - that can open automatically - on one side of the facility for fresh air and sunlight. It sits just 20 yards from the locker room and is accessible via a hallway for players on rainy days without going outside.
The playing surface of the new Bryson Field was also upgraded. Changes include a new infield playing surface, new grass, new irrigation and drainage systems, padded outfield walls and a new batters' eye. The drainage system is state-of-the-art and is capable of handling upwards of 15 inches of rain per hour.
New Astroturf bullpens, located off the field, were also installed, as was a 10-foot rubberized warning track around the outside of the playing field. A brick wall behind home plate and down each line adds to the classic look of the ballpark.
Both dugouts are 75 feet long are and completed with padded benches and cubbies for each player. The dugouts feature a poured rubber floor with camera wells on each end.
The stadium also features a new lighting system that exceeds AAA minor league standards and is on par with the finest professional stadiums.
The dimensions of the playing field are 335 feet down the left field line, 370 to left center, 400 to center field, 355 to right center and 340 down the right field line.
In addition to the clubhouse area, playing surface and seating bowl, the upper deck was significantly upgraded to join the elite facilities in college baseball. Housed down the third base line are offices for the Carolina coaches and staff along with a reception area. Each office features a view of the stadium, as well as a balcony that overlooks the field.
Just off the coaches' office area is an 800-square foot patio facing the front of the stadium and Ridge Road. This spot is ideal for entertaining and is available for cookouts and meals on both game days and for football games in the fall.
Adjacent to the offices is the main press box, which features two-tiered seating to accommodate the print media. Also included in the press area are a fully equipped television booth and two radio booths.
This level also features seven suites complete with a kitchen area, indoor stools and seating in front overlooking the playing surface. Four outdoor suites down the right field line with tables and umbrellas are also available for lease.

Junior philosophy major Matthew Weatherford is the first University of St. Thomas student to be accepted into the coveted Yale University's Summer Institute in Bioethics . Studying with elite scholars, students and professionals for eight weeks, Weatherford will engage in intellectual debates, mini-conferences and social events that foster collaboration on bioethics.
"I will have the unique opportunity to take morning classes and afternoon seminars with some of the greatest minds in bioethics," Weatherford said. "It's interdisciplinary with different majors and experience levels. We'll discuss centuries-old issues and cutting-edge medical advances from the 21 st century."
Weatherford, who is finishing both his bachelor's and master's in philosophy at UST, is among the 50 other students accepted from around the world to this prestigious program. Participants include undergraduates, graduates, law students, medical students and doctoral candidates. Weatherford looks forward to the dialogue that will help participants fill in the gaps on of bioethics issues.
"The medical stuff may be over my head, but I can contribute on the philosophy," he said. "It will also be interesting because we'll collaborate with international students. One of my seminars is bioethics and law. I know the U.S. law, and we follow that closely, but the different points of view and cultures will enhance the conversation."
Weatherford's affinity for bioethics stems from his interest in ethics. He enjoys case studies that require someone to make a tough ethical decision. He loves the opportunity to be at the forefront of ground-breaking ideas and creating new ones from old theories. Weatherford said the class he took with Dr. Steven Jensen , associate professor of philosophy and expert on bioethics, showed him how to do bioethics correctly and helped him accurately frame a problem.
Weatherford said it is imperative to practice prudence when coming up against tougher decisions.
"If your ideas influence a law, you have to understand the impact you can make," Weatherford said. "It's not just an idea, it's a way of acting. Empathy plays a major role in studying bioethics, because when you're doing ethical theory, it's easy to forget you're dealing with real people. It's easy for people to sometimes get carried away with their research."
Weatherford researched and found the Yale program. After submitting his resume, a letter of intention and a couple of letters of recommendation, he was interviewed by Program Director Carol Pollard via several emails.
"I've had email conversations with Matthew, and I feel like I know him," Pollard said. "We look for students who are motivated in the field of ethics and someone who has developed empathy. He will fit right in."
Weatherford is ready to embark on his summer program and is eager to be the pioneer for the University.
"It's exciting to represent the University and St. Thomas' unique perspectives," Weatherford said.

Tax reform was on the front burner Monday night on Kentucky Tonight when legislative leaders gathered around the table to discuss the complex and sometimes controversial measure.
Representatives Jim Wayne and Jeff Hoover and Senators Tom Buford and Gerald Neal all agreed that modernizing the state tax structure was extremely important, and they questioned why a plan or conversation about the issue was not taking place in Frankfort.
Governor Beshear's Blue Ribbon Commission on Tax Reform met last year and issued a final report and recommendations in December. Other than a few speeches, not much has been done to prepare the 2014 General Assembly for addressing tax reform.
The commission's final report contained dozens of recommendations. Of course, a lot of the debate boils down to which taxes might be raised or lowered, and how these changes will affect Kentucky businesses and citizens. During Kentucky Tonight, lawmakers answered a viewer's email which asked who would be the winners and losers if tax reform was enacted in the state.
You can watch the full program here.
On another matter, join me next Monday, July 22nd, for a live, special edition of One to One. I'll be in the Louisville studio with Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer and Mayor Jim Gray of Lexington. We will discuss the economic growth opportunities for the state's two largest cities, and how an immigration plan might be received in their cities along with other issues they're dealing with.
We want you to participate — during the broadcast, we will answer emails at email@example.com and Tweets @BillKET. The program airs Monday, July 22nd at 8/7 Central on KET, and will also be streamed live at KET.org/live.

Try again your noticeing pressure decreasing sounds like you have a pressure gauge or pressure
regulator in between pump and carb, if so just for fun remove it and go straight to carb( could have flow direction backwards,mechanical fuel pump I would think either works or not.Oh, just thought of something, your fuel line isn't
up to high( on fender or somewhere else high up)
mechanical fuel pump won't work correctly if line is up high ,loses suction, keep up posts
|Hey,Pontiacman & 78Monte,thanks for the replies! This site is a cool place to ask questions and get answers to when you dont have many people to ask. Any how I did last year put aluminum fuel lines, out from any heat source,all the fancy,smancy fuel fittings,then hid all that hi-dollar stuff in the engine compartment area with a thermol-tec sleeve, just so i wouldnt have a heat problem.Last summer the car ran fine here in chicagoland.also as far as the vapor lock, when the fuel preasure went down to 2 psi, I did loosen the gas cap to check to see if there was a suction or vapor lock going on and it didnt help the fuel preasure any! The gas cap is original, heck most of the car is. The motor does get,and engine conpartment too, a little warm, just like most motors do. Its not even warm outside yet were I live! Thanks again for your help.
|78 monte
|it could be vaporlock.check if the fuel line is to close to the headers. maybe an electric fuel pump would help cause you could mount it away from the engines heat.
Lets see, easiest stuff could be do you have the
proper gas cap, vented I believe on yours, volume of gas sufficient? fuel line off at carb, connect
to hose watch flow while tuning over, dist. wire dissconnected, does flow change?watch for alittle while.Could fuel line be touching block (from pump to carb. Vapor locking)this happenes after warm -up.I'm guessing wrong cap and vapor locking.Keep up posts and let's what shows up as the coulprit.
Presure, Where Did It Go?
Any body, help me please! A 355 sbc,in a 67' nova,with a mecanical fuel pump. Im getting 6-7 psi when the motor is not at operating temps,185 deg. But when it gets warmed up, the fuel pressure slowley drops to 1 to 2 psi and of course runs like crap! So i have changed the fuel pump,with another performer fuel pump,changed the filter, and a new fuel tank pickup 3/8',all for nothing!There are no leaks, and it was fine for a hundred miles or so. The motor is new,afr heads, holley750dp or edelbrock 750, same problem, 10-1 pistons,performer rpm,headers,hi-per hei dist.gear drive.medium cam, th350 trans.Im so confused, frustrated, because i thouht i could fix it. I thought it was a easy problem!!!Any help would sure be highly appr.

Unlike England, which is divided up into counties, Scotlands local government divisions were, up until 1996, regions and districts. Nowadays, the country is split into 32 unitary authority areas, of which Glasgow is one. The city is situated on the banks of the River Clyde in the west central lowlands of Scotland and has undergone immense change during recent decades, becoming a significant city of culture and shopping. With the Buchanan Galleries and the St Enoch Center, as well as the up-market Princes Square and the Italian Center, both of which specialize in designer labels, Glasgow is considered to be the largest and most economically important retail sector after Central London. One of the things, or rather the people, for which the city of Glasgow is particularly famous is Charles Rennie Mackintosh. Known all over the world for his architecture and designs in the Arts and Crafts movement, Mackintosh was the main exponent of Art Nouveau in the United Kingdom. Visitors to the city can see some fine examples of his work, such as the Glasgow School of Art, the Willow Tearooms, the Scotland Street School and the Queens Cross Church. At the Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, The Mackintosh House is a reconstruction of the interior of the home of Mackintosh and his wife, which originally stood only 100 meters away. The Hunterian also houses the Mackintosh Collection, which comprises more than 800 designs, drawings and watercolors, as well as a small collection of personal memorabilia. Visitors will be treated to displays of the works of Salvador Dali, Rembrandt, Van Gogh, Whistler, Monet and Botticelli, in addition to unique collections of arms and armor and Ancient Egyptian artifacts.
