Thank You very much
|Father & Son
|Thanks for the input/ideas Timothale. We appreciate it.
elect fuel pump.
I have and unfinished project, 302 into an 83 ranger. there is no room for the stock fuel pump because of steering gear interference. There is supposed to be an early econoline van w/ ac mech fuel pump that will work. I hesitate because of difficulty in being able to find a replacement in the future, (the no longer stocked problems) If I use and electrical pump I will use the crash shut off switch located under the glove box on later rangers with EFI. they are easy to reset.

|Thanks Tech. The Edelbrock pump we have came with our dyno'd crate engine - another reason for staying with it. Anyone in favor of an electric pump? In at least one related discussion we were told they are more efficient. Not quite sure if this is true or exactly how but it seems possible.
I would far and away prefer to use a mechanical pump because of the simplicity of the system, but you have to use the correct mechanical pump. We have had a go-round on this forum lately with trying to find a mechanical pump that won't overpower the needle and seat. You don't want to use a pump that puts out so much pressure that you then need a pressure regulator, because I'm told that regulators don't work that well with an engine-driven mechanical pump. Simply start with a mechanical pump that delivers 5-6 psi and have it over with.
Here's an Edelbrock high volume pump that is factory set at 6 psi. I'd rather have 5, but 6 will probably work ok, particularly if you use a Holley carburetor. They'll tolerate 6 1/2 psi.
If you use the pump you have, make sure you install a tee at the carb inlet and run a line back to the firewall and up past the back of the hood to the cowl. Temporarily mount a mechanical fuel pressure gauge with duct tape or tie wraps or whatever on the cowl, so you can monitor the pressure delivered by the pump as you drive. This is the only way you will know definitively if you have the pressure under control or not.

Ogre & Tech: Thanks for all the info & photos. They are a big help. Ogre, we wish we had the rails on your 58. There appears to be a lot more room. The rails on our advanced design 50 really pinch narrow from the cab mount forward. Then again, as we're learning, each build comes with it's own set of challenges.
Update: We refitted the engine last night, massaged the lower firewall at the cab trans cover and removed the fuel pump - victory! We have a good fit with ample dist, oil pan & trans clearance!
Now for a decision on the fuel pump. We can modify the cross member & rail to allow for the mechanical pump & fuel line connections or go with an electric pump. Any more opinions on the efficiency of each - pros & cons? So far our thoughts are that placing an electric on the rail provides accessibility and eliminates the need for additional mods but will of course necessitate spending $ which is fine if it improves efficiency. Modifying the frame is more work but since we already have the pump, it's free.
On to the actual mounting of the engine and trans. I'm sure somebody makes a mount that will drop the motor and trans into place. I will take the contrarian point of view and suggest some ways to do it.
Here's a crossmember that accepts stock-type Chevy motor mounts and bolts or welds to the frame....
Uses these rubber mounts...
Or these polyurethane mounts...These may transfer a little more of the vibration of the motor to the frame/seat/your caboose/steering wheel.
Here's another mount system that may work with some tweaking. I have used this arrangement on a few cars. Works out sweet.
Here are the instructions....
Here are some stands that will work with the stock rubber motor mount. Just trim/cut the stands for the location where you want to weld them in....
Maybe this arrangement would work for you. These are AD Chevy frame adapters....
That work with this mount....
Here's the install illustration....
And instructions....
As far as cooling, I am on the side that says to use the same arrangement the factory used in these earlier cars and trucks. I like a mechanical fan system and will not use an electric system on anything I build.
I'm certain there are components that are available out there to make up a whiz-bang electric fan system. I'm just not interested in messin' with 'em. Now, for you guys who are gonna make noise about less hp used to cool the motor, the power to operate the fan is made by the alternator and the alternator is operated off the crank, so don't try to tell me that there is less power used with an electric system. It takes the same or even more hp off the crank to operate the electrical system because of the efficiency loss. Fellows, there is no free lunch.
Sorry Father and Son, had to get that off my chest.
Now, starting from scratch, we need a radiator that has sufficient square inch area to transfer the heat generated by the motor to the atmosphere. I would be thinking something around 375-400 square inches and 2 or 3 cores thick. I'd go to the boneyard with a tape measure and look at all the radiators that are in front of a small block Chevy. Measure them up, take pics, whatever. When you find one that will fit into your core support, write down the year, make and model, so that you can order a new radiator from your favorite supplier.
I bought a new 2-core aluminum/plastic radiator from Checker Auto for my daily driver pickup truck. It was $120. I don't care if it doesn't last as long as a copper/brass unit, it was only $120. And it cools the motor on the 4th of July in stalled traffic in downtown Phoenix, Arizona.
You'll need to direct the airflow into the radiator from the front of the truck. Look to see if there is a way, for instance, for the air to ride up and over the radiator because of the space between the top of the radiator and the underside of the hood. If it can get through there, you need to install baffles that will direct the air through the radiator, not around it. Check the side and bottom of the radiator to make sure air cannot get around the radiator.
Now, we have cooling air coming through the radiator and we have a good radiator mounted. The next thing is the shroud. We want a tight-fitting shroud so that the fan cannot pull air from around the sides, top or bottom of the radiator. All air that enters the engine compartment must be pulled through the core of the radiator. I like to use OEM parts because the manufacturers spent untold amounts of money to engineer the stuff to work properly. So, I use a steel, 18", 7-blade fan. Grab one from the boneyard. Lay it down flat and measure the pitch of the blades from the floor to the edge of the blade. A good fan blade will be about 2 1/4 to 2 1/2 inches pitch. Some of the diesel Olds motors from the '80's have a 3-inch pitch. Don't you just know that they hauled in some air.
The blades should fit into the shroud hole with about 1 inch of clearance all around the hole and with the blades sitting halfway in and halfway out of the hole or maybe just a tad deeper into the hole, say 2/3 in and 1/3 out. The fan will be driving off the water pump. Before installing the new water pump, hold the housing in one hand and twist the impeller with your other hand. The impeller must not move. That's another hard overheating problem to find, the impeller slipping on the driveshaft. Check for a little clearance between the housing and the impeller and between the impeller and the rear plate. If there is any touching going on there, you will have a noise that is hard to find. Also, make the proper clearance between the water pump plate and the timing cover. Also, use the proper diameter pulleys so you get the proper fan speed. Oh, and use a thermostatically-controlled fan clutch on the pump shaft.
Be aware that there are serpentine systems out there that turn the fan blade counter-clockwise, so don't be fooled by this. As you are holding the fan blade in front of you and looking down on the top edge of the blade, if the blade has a Northwest/Southeast orientation, it is a conventional Vee-belt fan blade. If the blade has a Northeast/Southwest orientation, it is a serpentine blade. You need to know this when scrounging through the boneyards for parts.
That's my best shot for a bulletproof cooling system, although there are some excellent tips and procedures written here.....
"Just like Downtown"
dist has a lot of space around it now.
i moved the engine back until i had an inch of clearance to the valve covers.
i too have a mustII xmember, about 3/4'' clearance to the oil pan
a pic of my motor mounts for ideas
Agree with Duntov 100%. Bolt the headers on the motor and drop it in the hole. Cut out anything that's in the way. Weld pieces back in to cover up the holes after you have placed the motor. If you have to cut out a crossmember, then cut it out and re-build another crossmember farther forward or rearward. You're the boss. Do whatever you want to or have to in order to get the motor in the truck.
As far as the electric fuel pump, mount it as close to the tank as possible and as low as possible without getting it in harm's way from junk on the freeway. Mount the pump to rubber, then mount the rubber to the truck frame or crossmember. I use the black rubber that comes as a muffler mount. It is about 1" by 3/4" and has holes in it. Cut the rubber from the steel part of the muffler mount. Mount the rubber to the truck, then mount the pump to the rubber. I had trouble trying to find such an animal when I was googling for a photo of these hangers. Maybe they don't make them any more. At any rate, use some good sturdy rubber pieces to mount the pump.
Here's a good pump to use.
It's factory set for 4 psi.
This pump is set at 6 psi and may work. The pressure will drop a little through the run of fuel line from the pump to the carb, so this pump may work as well....
YOU NEED ONLY 5 PSI MAX AT THE CARB INLET. Higher pressure than that will overpower the needle and seat in the carb and blow raw fuel into the intake manifold. You will never get the motor tuned with this going on. This 4070LP is a low-pressure, high-volume pump, so run a 1/2 inch fuel line from the tank to the filter and from the filter to the pump and from the pump to the carburetor. The fittings on the pump and the filter will be 3/8 inch. Use adapters to 1/2 inch and run 1/2 inch line tank to the carb.
You want to mount a cartridge or spin-on fuel filter right at the tank first, then the pump immediately after the filter. Use a short connector piece of QUALITY fuel hose instead of solid connections at the pump, both on the inlet side and the outlet side of the pump. Solid connections will drone constantly and make you nuts from the sound. That's why you mount the pump in rubber. YOU NEED ONLY 5 PSI MAX AT THE CARB INLET. Higher pressure than that will overpower the needle and seat in the carb and blow raw fuel into the intake manifold. You will never get the motor tuned with this going on.
Do not use that fosdick black rubber hose for making your connections between parts. Use only quality hose specified for fuel use.
Here are some of the quality hoses I'm talking about....You'll find other makes and specs at....for instance....NAPA.... (Genuine Parts Co).
Aeroquip FC300
Aeroquip FC332
Aeroquip Star Lite 200
AQP socketless
Earl's Prolite
Fragola Performance Systems Series 8000 Push-Lite race hose
Gates LOL Plus
Russell Twist-Loc 836
Russell XRP HS-79
Dayco Imperial Nylo-seal tubing
Goodridge 536 & 710
Or any other kind of premium quality fuel line hose. I just don't want you to use the cheapo, fosdick black rubber hose that will deteriorate and rupture or leak. Sometimes, that stuff breaks down inside and will block fuel flow. You can't see it, so you can't find the problem. Or a piece of it will find its way between the needle and seat in the float bowl.
I might use a cartridge filter such as this one...
That uses these replacement filters...
There are hundreds of different pumps, filters, etc. that you could use. I'm simply showing some examples of parts that I know will work for you.
The whole idea here is to filter the fuel before it gets to the pump and use a pump that will produce sufficient pressure and volume through a 1/2 inch line so as to eliminate the need for an inline regulator to bring the fuel pressure down to a point that it will not overload the needle and seat in the float bowl.
Here's a roll of 1/2 inch aluminum line like used on drag race cars. I see this stuff on every other car that comes through tech inspection....
Secure the line to the frame every 12 inches with insulated Adel clamps such as these...
Ace Hardware has these in several sizes.

|Great! Thanks for the tips/info Ogre. The photos are helpful as well. How much clearance did you end up with at the firewall for the distributor and trans? What about your oil pan to cross member clearance? We really appreciate it.
old trucks already have too much weight over the front wheels, nature of the beast but try not to make it worse.
while my 58 was designed for a v8 it did not like the 2 plugs coming out the back of the distributor
i fabbed a box to house the distributor and was also able to move my motor back an inch by doing so
i used a 700r4 trans also. my only interference was at the front 12'' of the floor
my 58 had a bellhousing hump and a flat floor over the trans.
i fabbed a trans tunnel to give me some clearance over the trans
not the best pic to show this but you can see what i did
everything was covered up by my consol
this may also fix your problem with the mechanical fuel pump.
if you can use it do so. electric fuel pumps are another fail point.
|Father & Son
|Thanks - much appreciated
Your instincts about sliding the engine back for weight distribution were right on.
His philosophy was we don't care much where the vehicle wants us to put an engine that doesn't belong in it. We put it where we want to. Since then it got easier.
I like the electric fan in front of the radiator idea, partly cause it's clean looking and more so because it frees up some Horse power and fuel mileage. Pump shaft appreciates it too.
Your instincts about sliding the engine back for weight distribution were right on. I like the engine as far back as possible, lowering it helps.. You can weld back a substitute gusset or whatever for anything you cut out.
You can prefab some sheet metal for the chunk you might take out of the firewall. The heater is on the right side so the duct work in the middle can be dealt with.
I might use a Mallory Unilite distributor to gain an inch or two, electric fuel pump too.
I might spend some time getting the cab where it's going to be first though. And you can make adjustments to that later if need be. You'll do fine if you keep in mind that you make the rules, not the truck And there are a lot of people on this forum that have more experience on this than I do so keep up with the posts too.. Good luck

Re: NEXUS Instruments - Experience with?
Does anyone know if the Nexus Multi XL mast display instrument can be daisy chained so I can add a second one?
Re: NEXUS Instruments - Experience with?
Sorry to resurrect this old thread.
I got a new nexus HPC compass, to fix an autopilot problem and things seemed to go well on our trip south, thousands of miles. Now, we are heading home, and our sailing is almost all downwind.
It's an Autonav, the AP 1500 that uses an original Nexus display unit.
I am struggling to get it to function. I have tried to incrementally adjust the calibration settings, but no matter what I do, the autopilot will hunt back and forth ever increasing until we are turned so far off the wind, we get overpowered. The problem is exacerbated in following seas when swell will turn our rear around.
Our boat is a 1974 Tartan 41, which isn't great downwind, but still...
Does anyone have an original nexus and can recommend some starting calibration numbers and then a good adjustment method. I can't seem to get the four setting right ><
Re: NEXUS Instruments - Experience with?
Does anyone have experience with the auto calibration system? I don't seem to be able to get it to drive the steer pilot instrument, though the one on my laptop display does do something. Using the laptop is really awkward as it's below and can't be seen from the helm.
If you got this to work how and did the final calibration help accuracy?
Company sold to Garmin. Hard to get service or parts
Company sold to Garmin. Hard to get service or parts and info.
Working with Garmin Nexus Tech support it seems to going nowhere to
support this product.
Re: NEXUS Instruments - Experience with?
Slightly OT....
Would like to drive the steer pilot from my PC (for instance would like it to automatically give best upwind / downwind depending on current TWA and polars). Anyone know how to drive it through the NMEA interface?
Guess I might be able to have it drive to a waypoint and keep moving the waypoint from the PC - think that's possible, but it seems quite hacky and I'd prefer to just drive the dial directly.
I know that some of this is possible through the FX server but would prefer full control if available.
Re: NEXUS Instruments - Experience with?
Thanks guys!
I am convinced that Nexus is great but I ended up with a boat that has Simrad instruments
Salonas come with Nexus instruments but they can mount Raymarine if you want. For what I have heard on this thread I would stick up with Nexus.
I ended up buying an used boat that come with Simrad.
Now about Simrad.... well the 2002 raymarine plotter I had was faster then the 2007 Simrad I have now and I liked more the Raymarine instruments, with the exception of the autopilot that is really good.
I have a Furuno 2007 radar that is really crap compared with the 2002 raymarine I had. It has not even MARPA and without that a radar worth a lot less regarding its use.
From Nexus I have the binoculars they represent (Eterna). I had already on the other boat the previous model when they were "Silva". They are great with an incredible low light capability.
Re: NEXUS Instruments - Experience with?
We have a 1985 J27 that is serving us very well. It came with a Nexus Multi Classic 1000 package (as near as I can tell from pictures anyway) which is still working - sort of.
The depth gauge keeps chirping at us to warn us that we're at 3.5 to 4.2 feet of water. It seems to happen at any depth between about 35 to 42 feet - I've watched it move up the depth from mid teens through twenties, hit the mid thirties and go decimal on me, move up to the low/mid four foot range, then pop back out of decimal as it moves into the 50 foot range.
We're sailing in NY Harbor and the lower Hudson river. Tons of boats, including sailboats with bigger drafts than us . Not to mention the cruise liners. Clearly we're not in 3.5 feet of water. (The draft on this boat is about 4 feet or maybe 5 feet - we're NOT in 3.5 feet of water). Also, given both traffic and water quality (even though it's improving) we're pretty confident that we're not seeing schools of fish or algae or something interfering with the depth gauge. It seems to be software, not hardware related.
Has anyone seen this issue before? Does anyone know of a software update to the server or the equipment?
Tacking from side to side in the Hudson River, we move through that depth range (30-50+ feet) a LOT. The constant chirping is miserable, and for safety reasons we can't just shut it off completely. Any info or suggestions would be appreciated.
Nexus was a part of Silva, but was spun off as an independent entity owned, at least in part, by Dean Baker of America's Cup fame. They seem to be focused on instruments for the yacht racing market, competing against B&G, Ockham, NKE... more so than then the general boating market, which is dominated by Raymarine. ComNav makes parts for them, and was the North American distributor, but about two years ago, Nexus switched to Ocean Equipment as their North American distributor in an effort to get more widespread distribution over here (e.g. Defender now carries the basic consumer-grade Nexus outfits).
PCP, the Nexus Steer Pilot is just an instrument display with an analog needle that points which way you want to steer - it can be configured to be driven by compass heading, wind angle, GPS track, etc... I think there are some other things it can do, too. It has nothing to do with the autopilot system.
My boat came with a full Nexus suite of instruments including multicontrols, wind instrument, multicenter (chart plotter), fluxgate compass and autopilot. They were about 10 years old when I got the boat and had spent all this time in California and Mexico. The log transducer was no longer working and the wind transducer gave up the ghost a few months later. I bought a server upgrade kit which included a new FX Server, new multicontol instrument and a combined depth and log transducer. I also sent the wind instrument to a guy in Florida for repair (at the time ComNav had given up supporting Nexus but I think that has changed).
Overall I'm happy with the set-up. I've connected the server to my laptop running the Nexus racing software an that gives lots of control over the server. The system has been reliable although it is sensitive to the quality of the connections. The down side is support is limited. Very few cruisers use Nexus and there are a limited number of places to get service. I have a long standing issue logged with Comnav where whenever I connect my wind instrument, the log stops working. It's been unplugged for a couple of years and at some point I'll pick up the problem and try and get it resolved.
I'm currently reconfiguring the electronics, connecting my HDS Chartplotter, Icom AIS and Standard Horizon VHF into the mix.
|Cata- my mistake, I assumed that ComNav had bought Nexus because they build them and the covers for the new Nexus instruments that I bought said ComNav on them. Interesting. I wonder if a Nexus autopilot is actually a ComNav then?

Harlan told me in a phone conversation that he's waiting to see what Congress and Minnesota is going to do before making another run of M90/M85 receivers. Kinda surprised me with all the M85 Pap pistols and virgin kits on the market. Now I'm unsuccessfully searching for a 100% receiver elsewhere so I can send in paperwork to SBR the kit I have. Got me thinking.... Is there anyone out there that can register and engrave a flat or blank for me? I can bend the flat, weld the rails, and harden the receiver myself. Tooling up to harden now. I just need a Class 2 manufacturer(?) to do the paperwork and engrave the flat or bent blank if it's legal to do so. I know someone here has the answers, I just don't know what else to do.

That made me laugh.
Thank you. I thought Hermann played tremendous defense on Pierce and later Eddie House; definitely not a factor in the game almost slipping away. Let's put him on Lebron next time! <i couldn't resist. Now i'm done commenting on it>
Huh! 2 games against top conference opponents on the road, 2 wins without Iverson. Whodathought???
GO PISTONS!!! THIS IS THE TYPE OF BASKETBALL THEY SHOULD BE PLAYING! :winner_first_h4h: :winner_first_h4h: :winner_first_h4h: :winner_first_h4h: :winner_first_h4h: :winner_first_h4h: :winner_first_h4h: :winner_first_h4h: :winner_first_h4h: :winner_first_h4h:
Please, let's not make this another Rip vs AI thread.
The Starbury cancer is taking effect!!!!
I figured we'd win this won and I'm glad we did. During the game I found myself caring a bit: slightly more happy when we'd make some good plays, slightly more frustrated when we messed up. So this is nice. It was hard for me not to keep thinking: no KG, no KG. But it is what it is, KG or no. But I'll be honest. I think I'm gunshy. Afraid of being taken in again. I posted a similar thing in the "sandbagging" thread. Are these the "old" Pistons? Well, I already know what they can do and it's not enough, not anymore. I'm not saying these ARE the old Pistons, just that this is what I'm afraid of: that we (and by we I mean EVERYONE) will be so happy to stop the bleeding that we'll forget that we made changes because the old Pistons weren't enough. Maybe it's a silly thing to be afraid of. But I really don't want to go backward. I'd like to see more Afflalo, Maxiell, and Amir (even Bynum and Herrman -- I know, I said it), not because I think they are crucial to our winning games this season, not even because I think their development is crucial to our long term success, and not even because I want to be able to evaluate them. It'd like to see more of them because they are fast, they hustle, and it's fun to watch them learn and to develop a relationship with them. I don't mind seeing Sheed hit fadeaways on the block, or Dyess hit pick and pops, or Rip score off screens. That's fine. But, it is predictable and we already know it's not enough to win it all. The young guys aren't enough to win it all either, in my opinion: not now for sure, and probably not in the future either. But I sure dig their energy. Maybe when AI comes back from his injury, I'll get the best of both worlds: the predictable familiarity of the starting core of "old" Pistons, and a fast, hustling, running energetic second unit playing in ways that are somewhat unpredictable, less structured, and certainly less familiar to me. Anyway, go Pistons.
I just hope this game gets repeated. I coudn't TIVO because we were winning and i didn't want upset the delicate karmic balance. And i could watch mid 4th quarter and on about 7 times. LOL
I am sure someone has mentioned this but it looks like this team is more coachable minus 1 SG. For the haters: the celts win w/out KG, ITS OK...Detroit wins w/out KG and its not a good win? Have we learned nothing this season?
Tell the Low to hold a space for you next show. We'd love to get a piece of your mind on the podshow NY.
The Pistons proved me wrong! I hope this lasts......
Some quotes I pulled from the recap on ESPN.com "The Detroit Pistons are back to their old mainstays and back to their old, winning ways." "You can tell they're playing the system they played before Iverson got there," said Celtics forward Paul Pierce, who scored 26. "When Iverson is out there they're still trying to figure out how to use each other, how to all be successful. But that group that's out there is definitely comfortable because they've played together for years." "We played our type of basketball," he [Hamilton] said. "That's the thing for me with Tayshaun, Rasheed (Wallace) and (Antonio) McDyess, I always know they're going to be at all times." "This is the old Pistons we're playing now," Celtics coach Doc Rivers said. "The ball is hopping. They're playing together." Judging from these quotations, it looks like we've got our old team back; you know the one that put together a string of 7 50 + win regular season records, 6 straight ECF appearances, numerous all-star appearances... oh yeah, and, uh, 1 title. Sweet. I find this backward running bandwagon ass-catting really disturbing. Why are our only two options (a) sucking with new players/coaches/combinations or (b) being excellent with old players/plays but falling short when it matters??
PISTONS: Postgame Quotes - March 1, 2009 Pistons Head Coach Michael Curry On Playing complete game: "It's kind of what we have been seeing with the guys and we just hadn't done it for a complete game. We had a couple of stretches where they made some shots and we lost 7 and 8 point leads a couple of times but I thought the way we were focused defensively and I thought the way we shared the basketball on the offensive end was good. We didn't stay on one side of the floor. The guys were moving the ball, willing to pass it, and we took care of the basketball." On Walter's play: "If we play Walter Hermann and Tayshaun Prince together we would be able to post two guards and so that's how it goes with playing those two together. If they put the smaller guy on Walter then he is a capable scorer down on the block. He can be a big contributor for us and we played off him down there. He helped spread the floor for us offensively." "We have shown stretches of it and whatever the reason is we haven't done it consistently enough. We play our best basketball when we have guys out. When we were on the west coast trip we had Richard Hamilton out and then we had Rasheed Wallace out for most of the trip. We have also been without Allen Iverson really the last three games and when we have all of our components we still have to figure out a way to play the way we have played the last three games." On Iverson returning: "We just have to play the same way and he has to play that way. We will play him in different rolls. I still like playing Tayshaun and Walter a lot together at the 2 and the 3. Maybe Iverson can come in and spend some time in Will Bynum's spot." "We have to find a way against this team to rebound better. They got strong legged guys and they may not have high jumpers but they get in the paint and they are hard to root out of the paint. Max's activity on the pick and rolls and his defense was really good. Will's pressure up the floor was great." "We tried to limit their three point opportunities but at the same time make the game difficult for Ray and Paul. So many plays are made through having to double them off pick and rolls. We also did a great job on Rondo and I think he is the one that usually makes all the plays. Containing Rondo better tonight gave us a great chance to win." Pistons Guard Richard Hamilton "I wasn't surprised, I thought we were focused, shared the ball, made easy plays. I thought that was the key. We had like 22 assists and 6 turnovers so I thought that was key for us tonight." "Like I said, we cheer for everybody on our team. When Walt got in, he made plays…we went at it regardless who had the hot hand. He made a couple shots and that's just how much confidence we got in our guys. Will came in, did an excellent job on the defensive end and making plays at the basket." On Iverson fitting in: "Not at all, I think he's going to fit right in. It's a tough role for him because I know it was a tough role for me. So, I think he will be great…like I said we're going to cheer for everybody and do everything possible to win games." On 2 wins in a row: "Like I said, we got 2 games. Two tough road games. I think that we just have to build of this. I think guys play with a lot of energy, came out did everything on both ends of the floor to get a win and I thought that was great for us." On Next game vs. Billups: "It's going to be fun, it's going to be exciting. I didn't get a chance to play the first game. I wanted to come back that game, but I didn't but it's going to be fun. It's going to be exciting, I think the fans will love it. They'll be happy to see that game so I think it's going to be exciting." Pistons Forward Walter Herrmann On getting more shots: " It feels so comfortable when you make your shots...you want the ball all the time. The team was playing to win but I started making my shots." On winning last 2 games: "To us, we try to play really good because two weeks ago we play really really bad. So, our last 3 games maybe we started to play really good…we need to play like this if we want to get the ring." On sporadic playing time: "You need to be ready all the time…we are professionals. You really don't know what will happen. I tried to be there."
Good game to evaluate this Piston team. With the offense back, the Pistons can compete. Maybe not at a level of year's past because the team is not as strong defensively. The biggest problem is that Dyss and Sheed can be pushed around now some due to age and the Pistons don't have young bigs who can take up the slack enough. Maxiel and Kwame had a combined three boards in 26 combined minutes. That will not get it done in the long run. And of course, Hermann does not rebound. To Maxiel's credit, he hit his free throws making some nice plays. But Davis already has a jumper and plays with a bit more force. And Davis is sort of average. Hermann filled the role that the offense desperately needs--someone to spread the floor but I do not have confidence in his overall game. It is a glaring problem on the team. But look how the Pistons sealed the game--with the three ball. No three ball and you cannot win much at all in the NBA. Tay did the one thing that he does best but is never asked to do: hit the spot up jumper.
He should be taking much more of those, and i don't understand why we don't use him as 3 point threat. His set shot especially from the corners is pretty damn good. I definitely see the lack of 3 point shooting hurting us. It really is a struggle to essentially only have Sheed. Tay could alleviate some of the pressure.
During this season Pistons have been killed by 3pt marksmen from other side numerous times. It was sweet revenge...finally. I hop that AI's agent do not take it too offensively when he witnesses with his own eyes that his allstar client has been REALLY benched. :dizzy2:
No one covers Tay like Tay. Amongst Curry's more curious moves was going with Max at the end, but it worked. Overall I thought he really hurt them. Nice free throwing young fella though. Bynum did what Bynum does. Nice game. Herrrman would have been a lot more effective if he could stay inbounds. Defensive boards hurt them, but it's tough move them out when you have to focus on their 1, 2 and 3. BOS is a good team. Nice win though.

One displaced, no one injured in NuMine fire
NuMINE — One man was displaced but no one injured in a fire that broke out around 11:45 p.m. Thursday night in NuMine, Armstrong County.
Bill Rupert, first assistant chief for the Rural Valley Volunteer Fire Department, said the blaze began in a garage at 1420 Main St., and spread to the trailer.
The cause remains under investigation.
Rupert said the trailer was owned by Ronald Altman, but was rented by Richard Faber, who was home but was able to escape. Neither man had insurance on the building, said Rupert.
Rupert said Plumville and Dayton fire companies also responded, and no one was injured fighting the blaze. He said the cause remains under investigation.
All units were back to their stations by 3 a.m., he said.

"I loved that there were thank you cards that matched the invitation that I chose, however, I would have preferred to have a picture uploaded with it, and this particular invitation/thank you card set doesn't allow you to have a picture"
"I love the elegant design with flowers that appear almost hand-painted in water colors on both sides and the texture of the paper is very nice. The teal color is my favorite and appropriate for either male or female receivers."
"I bought this for my mother in law, she´s a teacher and the design fit perfectly. These sets of 10 thank you cards are a perfect stocking stuffer."
"I have ordered this card twice after enjoying it so much the first time. I found it versatile and the perfect size for a short note...sometimes a thank you note or a sympathy note...it worked well for both. I deleted the "thank you" heading and inserted my name at the top. That left a little more room to write."
"I am very pleased with this card. It is beautiful in orange and I think pretty unique. I changed my name font and love the way it turned out."

I am very happy to share, my COMPLETED helmet!!! Well the outside and electronic parts, I have to add some foam padding and a chin strap, but everything else is done. It has a remote range finder along with blinking LED lights. The range finder is a bit larger then most, but that is what I had to do to accommodate the LED board. Anyway, I would not have been able to accomplish this without the help of the board, so thank everyone for the tutorials and help!

Subscription site Ancestry.com has a searchable version of this index, and it's on National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) microfilm M602 and Family History Library (FHL) microfilm. The FHL has copies of most of the NARA microfilms mentioned in this article, and you can borrow it for a fee by visiting a FamilySearch Center near you.
The National Archives also has separate microfilm covering the states of Mississippi (M678), Louisiana (M229), North Carolina (M250) and South Carolina (M652); and the FHL has copies of these, too.
Once you've found your ancestor in the index, you'll be able to order copies of his compiled military service record (CMSRs) from NARA online or by mail using form NATF 85 and 86. Instructions are here.
The CMSR is a jacket with one or more cards containing basic information about the soldier's military career. Many cards were compiled from muster rolls recording the soldier's presence or absence during a certain period of time. You also may learn the soldier's date of enlistment and discharge, amount of bounty paid him, wounds received during battle or hospitalization for injury or illness. You might learn a place of birth (likely just a country if foreign-born) and find personal papers such as enlistment papers, documents relating to capture as a prisoner of war or statements regarding any personal property on him when he died. Note, however, that a CMSR rarely indicates battles in which a soldier fought.
If your ancestor wasn't a volunteer, but had already enlisted in the Regular Army when the war began, you'll need to look for him in the publication Register of Enlistments in the US Army, 1798-1914. You'll find this on Ancestry.com and on NARA Microfilm M233. These enlistment registers are chronologically arranged, and then alphabetical by the first letter of the person's last name.
The Pension Act of 1871 required the veteran to have served a minimum of 60 days. Widows who applied must have married the veteran before 1815. The Pension Act of 1878 broadened the eligibility pool, reducing the minimum service length to 14 days.
Pension files often contain a great deal of correspondence, as the veteran had to provide evidence of his military service. A widow had to prove she'd been married to a veteran. That means your ancestor's file might include copies of civil or religious marriage records, sworn testimony from someone present at the wedding or even a page torn out of a family Bible. To see whether your ancestor or his widow left a pension, check the pension index called Index of War of 1812 Pension Applications, on Ancestry.com and NARA microfilm M313 (with copies at the FHL). Or see if your library has Index to War of 1812 Pension Files, 3 vols., by Virgil D. White (National Historical Publishing Co.).
The Federation of Genealogical Societies and subscription website Fold3.com have undertaken an effort to digitize War of 1812 pension records and make them available for free. A small number of records is already available. Otherwise, War of 1812 pensions haven't been digitized or micorfilmed, and you'd need to order your ancestor's file from NARA. If you can't visit NARA in Washington, DC, you can order copies according to the same procedure as for service records.
If you can't locate a pension for your ancestor or his widow, try another index (unfortunately, not online): NARA has a card index to pension applications of remarried widows that covers the years 1816 to 1860. The cards indicate the remarried name of each widow and the the name of her late husband who was the veteran.
To find out whether your ancestor received a bounty land warrant, search the Ancestry.com database War of 1812 Military Bounty-Land Warrants, 1815-1858. These records, also on NARA microfilm M848, shows the stubs retained by the federal government for warrants that were issued.
If your ancestor settled on his bounty land, search for his land patent in the Bureau of Land Management General Land Office (GLO) database. Then you can request copies of the GLO Land Entry Case file from NARA using NATF Form 84, or order them through NARA's order online system (you'll need the warrant number from the aforementioned Ancestry.com index or NARA microfilm M848). The case file gives you information about the warrantee, the location of the land, the date the title was transferred to the patentee and more.
Otherwise, you'll need to manually search ships' musters and payrolls until you found your ancestor. You'll find these in NARA Record Group 45, the Naval Records Collection of the Office of Naval Records and Library, 1775-1910. The record series includes Muster Rolls and Payrolls of Vessels, 1779-1885, and Muster Rolls and Payrolls of Shore Establishments of the United States Navy, 1800-1842.
If you know the name of your ancestor's ship, look for it in the online finding aid. This will tell you whether the NARA records contain muster rolls or payrolls for the ship, and how the records are arranged. If your navy veteran was on land at a shore establishment during the War of 1812, use the finding aid.
NARA has more than 70,000 individual ship logs (or deck logs) available for research, arranged by the name of the vessel. Learn more about this record series here.
In this same record group are Registers of Deserters, 1809-1907, giving the marine's name and place of desertion from the Marine Corps, and where and when he was captured. For those seeking the parents of young marines, Certificates of Indenture, 1815-1856 includes forms signed by parents or guardians for boys bound into service as apprentices to Fife and Drum majors.

Worse garage out their, came to pick up car , charged me 350 for service and oil in diff, but did not solve or recognise the original issue, since not getting a refund I have paid for more diagnostics , gear mountings and been recognised as the problem, so if SA put my car on ramp to do work , then why was this not picked up ???

Excellent service, would definitely recommend.
Absolutely fantastic service. Professional and friendly, fixed my car were it had broken down in just a couple of days. (Due to liaising with warranty company and awaiting parts) Hassle free, highly recommend and I will use again if needed. (but hopefully I wont need)

Romney on jobs report: "A sad reminder …"
posted at 9:35 am on November 2, 2012 by Ed Morrissey
Via Fox News:
"Today's increase in the unemployment rate is a sad reminder that the economy is at a virtual standstill. The jobless rate is higher than it was when President Obama took office, and there are still 23 million Americans struggling for work. On Tuesday, America will make a choice between stagnation and prosperity. For four years, President Obama's policies have crushed America's middle class. For four years, President Obama has told us that things are getting better and that we're making progress. For too many American families, those words ring hollow. We can do better. We can have real economic growth, create millions of good-paying jobs, and give middle-class families the security and opportunity they deserve. When I'm president, I'm going to make real changes that lead to a real recovery, so that the next four years are better than the last."
Crunching the latest numbers:
- With this month's report, we have added a net 3,2525,000 jobs to the economy in the 41 months since the recovery began in June 2009. That's an average of 79,317 jobs per month, far below what's needed to keep up with population growth (~125K per month).
- In the private sector, we've added 3,811,000 jobs, averaging 92,951 jobs per month — still way below what's needed to keep up with population growth.
- In 2012 alone, we've added 1,569,000 jobs overall, for an average of 156,900 per month. That's a better rate than the overall recovery, and it keeps up with population growth — but at that rate, we'd need to go 251 months to recover the 8 million jobs we've lost — over 20 years.
A sad reminder, indeed.

"I couldn't be happier with this invitation! The card stock is of nice quality and the printing turned out great. I love how colorful it is! Even the back of the card is super cute too. Perfect for my son's first birthday!"
"I turned this design into a thank you card for my daughter's 1st birthday. She happens to really enjoy cars. Super cute and colorful!"
"Beautiful card and I'm always impressed with the turn around time of Tiny Prints. So wonderful for a busy mother who is running behind on birthday planning"
"Again, these were perfect for a nine year old's "Lego Birthday Party"....I used a photo of him in his Lego costume from last Halloween!"
"This card is perfect for my little Thomas the Train obsessed son and his third birthday party. Be sure to review your card before you order because I erased the "3" in the middle of the red dot on the train and didn't realize it until it was too late. But otherwise it is an absolutely adorable card."

Albemarle Sound gives its name to a private, waterfront golf community along its 500 miles of shoreline. Albemarle Plantation's success has been attributed to its conveniently secluded Carolinas "Inner Banks" location, its Dan Maples golf course, and the friendly, fun-loving nature of the community's residents.
In 2012 that community of friends did something unique: they bought the place. Golf club, marina, tennis, pool and fitness facilities, walking trails, dining – all of the amenities, all done (and done well), all owned by the residents. Why? They saw an opportunity to control their community's future, and to be a beacon of stability in a sea of uncertainty. To keep membership costs low and property values high. And to share their great quality of life with a growing number of friendly, fun-loving folks.
Today, Albemarle Plantation offers an intriguing blend of convenience and seclusion, of golf and boating, and of quality and value. You can read about us in the Wall Street Journal's OWN magazine, but you don't have to go far to learn more. Take the drive to coastal northern North Carolina – its worth the quick trip. Special "Discover Albemarle" packages are available through the community-owned sales office – call 800-523-5958 for details, and to make a "Sound" decision of your own.

Hey guys, I know what the obvious answer to that question is, and it is "YES!!!"... but let me explain.
I live in Michigan, in the heart of it -- Mount Pleasant (about an hour north of Lansing). I also am a college student, which means 1) little money, 2) apartment, 3) no garage.
This means I really have a limited selection of where I choose to work on projects, and has prohibited me from going farther than I want to with things. Granted, this will be over with in December when I graduate and (hopefully) move on to a job where I have either my own apartment or a cheap house with a garage, or -something-.
Anyway, I want to continue work on things, but at the same time I don't want to begin work on something if it's going to come out wrong due to temperature.
I know fiberglassing should be done in a well ventilated area (outside) and is best at temperatures in the range of 70-90*F (I think?)... but would it be suitable to fiberglass something outside in the cold, and then bring it inside to dry? Would the fumes from the drying fiberglass be too toxic or nauseating?
Thanks all in advance for your responses... It's always thankful to have the knowledge of more experienced individuals, and I'm glad this board has plenty of you.


text: Hey guys, I'm a fellow West Virginian, but have migrated out west the last few years (Arizona, California, Utah). I'm coming home to visit my old man over Christmas time and would love nothing more than to find a good duck hunt. I've asked and asked my dad if he knew anyone that hunted, but no luck. So I figured this would be my best bet. I'll be in Boone County, but would be happy to go to Kanawha, Logan, Lincoln, or any other surrounding county to find a decent hunt. If anyone would be interested in letting me tag along, let me know!

|Topic Review (Newest First)
qcyc: Yes: more info would be great.
olepedersen: I plan to spend about a week on the eastern shore of G Bay. I have 3 old friends from college (35 years ago) joining me for that leg
katy: Thanks for that info - something I did not know. I have been thinking the Erie Canal might make a nice trip for a future summer. Looks like a lot of interesting possibilities on L Ontario. If I go by way of Lake Erie I will definately contact you here. There is wireless everywhere nowdays.
Actually, the Welland is not the only way to get from Lake Erie to Lake Ontario. You can take the Erie Canal from Buffalo eastward to Oswego, NY. Of course, you'll have to lower the mast at Buffalo, but there are a couple of marinas there that will do that for you. The trip itself is a wonderful canal trip and you can usually put in along the way for no cost. Once you get to Oswego you'll have to have the mast put up again, and that also will cost you. Do a google search for Erie Canal for info.
Remember that you'll have to pay about $20 per lock on the Welland, and there are something like eight sets of locks to go through. They will take either CAN $20 or US $20, and since the Canadian dollar is worth less than the US dollar it will pay you to have the money in Canadian bills. Whichever way you go it is going to cost you some money to get through the canals.
I suggest you stop a few days at the Lake Erie islands -- South Bass (Put-in-Bay) is great, at least on the weekdays -- too much partying for me on the weekends. Also, if you pick the wrong weekend you'll find it hard to find a spot to moor or dock your boat because of the crowds. If that happens go to Middle Bass, just to the north of South Bass. It has both a state park with docks, and a yacht club that will allow you to berth for a small charge. I prefer the yacht club (Middle Bass Island Yacht Club), but be nice to the dockmaster!! Kellys Island is also nice, a lot quieter and family oriented than South Bass.
I would stop in Sandusky. You can go to the Cedar Point Marina, but Sandusky has many different marinas, the handiest being Battery Park. If you belong to an ILYA yacht club I'd look into the Sandusky Sailing Club as you'll get a nice discount there. Go to www.sanduskysailingclub.org for more info. There is a lot to do in the Sandusky area and a lot happening on the waterfront -- many different marinas there if you don't want the sailing club.
Wherever you go and stop you'll have a great trip. Enjoy it and be safe. If you get to Sandusky send me a private message on Sailnet as I keep my boat at the Sailing Club.
Stop on L. Ont
QCYC a great place to stop...Med Mooring, beautiful view of downtown Toronto, beach, park, trails...restaurant/bar, party club! Let me know if you need more information
|Hi , dont miss eastern shore of Georgian bay it is the most beutifull fresh water cruising ground in the world, welland canal is easy if you have 3-4 crew takes 5-8 hours in day time 5-6 at nite check in advance with traffic control . other routes are erie barge canal to Oswego or trent canal to lake Ontario canal routes require mast laid down Ole Pedersen Parry Sound
|It looks like I will be leaving Racine, WI early June. I plan to spend three weeks in the North Channel and I am now considering the Trent Severen route as it sounds very interesting. It would also leave me Lake Erie and the Welland for another year. That part of the trip is still undecided.
Glad you sold the house and are going to make the trip this summer, you have my home # give me a call when you get close to this end of the lake. I know what you mean about being retired, i can't believe I retired at 55 and I'm now 61 time just flies when your having fun. Hopefuly the admiral and I are going to make the trip to Erie and then work our way to put in bay this july. Late august is a great time to be on lake ontario, it's just a great lake to sail on. Have a good trip and keep in touch.
We meet and talked at the Stictly Sail Show in Chicago, I don't think you are old enough to be retired, you should still be working like the rest of us. Just a joke, congrats on the sale of your house and the purchase of your new home. Waterfront on Lake Ontario? Sounds wonderful, best of luck with your cruise and fair winds to everybody.
Sailor Tim
i really do appreciate the posts here. The house in IL is sold and closes in a couple of weeks and we close on a home in Wilson, NY in the middle of April. Housing prices are low there and we were able to find a home with L Ontario frontage for significantly less than our IL home. Its a fixer upper, but I have done that before. The house is 3 miles from either the harbor in Wilson to the west or the one in Olcott Beach to the East.
If I can have the boat ready by mid May, I will sail in tandem with a friend doing a delivery to Bayfield. (long underwear cruise) I will go as far as St Ignace, or thereabouts, and split from him. I plan to spend June poking around northern Huron and July in the N Channel. I am supposed to meet a friend at Little Current on July 1. I am debating whether to do the Trent Severen or Lake Erie. Tough choice. I think that if I do not spend a lot of time in Georgian Bay this summer, I will go the L Erie route since it will be with the prevailing winds. I would then return to Georgian a year or two later via the Trent Severen, cruise that area and return via Erie to L Ontario.
Al, I plan to get into Wilson late August, but my time fram is pretty open. I'm retired and really don't have any deadlines.
Life is full of so many choices.
I am printing this thread out tonight - thanks for the input. I will be looking some of you up this summer. If you are not on your boat, I will leave an empty beer bottle on your deck to let you know I was there.
You can also reach Lake Ontario from Georgian Bay through the Trent-Severn Waterway, but it's 240 miles and you'll have to take your mast down. Still, it's a recreational boaters paradise and you'd have a great trip.
For Lake Ontario, west of Wilson, Port Dalhousie is a good choice if you like restaurants & bars. 50-Point is in a Conservation Park so it's good if you like quiet and nature. Port Credit is a great place to stay during the Jazz Fest (www.portcredit.com) and also has great bars and restaurants within steps of both marinas, but I'd stay at the Harbour rather than the Village Marina. Toronto Island has the best view and is my favorite, but you'll have to take the ferry to get downtown ($3/each) and off the Island. Marina Four is smack in the middle of downtown and a great deal, a few minutes walk from the Skydome and CN-Towner, etc. And finally, reserve now at Ontario Place for the Air Show, which I think is usually in September.

(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130321/CL81316 ) Available beginning in March 2013, the one-liter pre-mix bottle will be available in limited quantities throughout the United States for a suggested retail price of $14.99. The artwork on this year's Kentucky Derby 139® bottle features renowned equine artist Celeste Susany from Saratoga Springs, NY, whose paintings have graced the Early Times bottles for many years. Entitled "The Derby Dance," this year's painting depicts the up and down, back and forth "dance" horses and jockeys engage in during the race. Shown around the bottle are horses painted at different heights, depicting the feeling of flight. The front of the bottle features a horse galloping high in the air towards the finish line. The jockey is shown on the number four horse wearing red and yellow silks with a yellow saddle cloth. The historic Twin Spires stand majestically in the background. "The Early Times Mint Julep bottle has truly become a collectible among art, horseracing, and whisky fans," said Therese McGuire, brand manager for Early Times Kentucky Whisky.

Fairweather Friends "Unlike" Romney on Facebook
Jason Mick
November 13, 2012 9:13 AM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Romney never fully conquered social media platform
When it comes to social networking, one cannot deny that reelected American President Barack Obama's campaign team thoroughly trumped
Republican challenger Mitt Romney's team
Even a late push by Romney in Facebook "likes" was unable to close the gap, with the final count being nearly
in Obama's favor. Mitt Romney can take pride in that analysts showed his smaller legion of fans to be more active in sharing content and liking his posts.
But as the President
celebrates the title of "Most Popular Tweet in History"
, some of those same once-engaged Romney fans are abandoning their former Facebook friend. Mitt Romney is seeing his social media stock rapidly sink. A site called "
Disappearing Romney
" is tracking this trend real time -- updating how many fans his page has.
In the last 18 hours former Gov. Romney was losing nearly 1,000 supporters an hour, as each hour on average he was "unliked" by 982 former social media buddies.
Romney's former fans are "unliking" him at a steady rate.

The former Massachusetts governor's Facebook effort was marred in the days leading up to the elections by allegations that some of his "likes" were
due to some kind of glitch
(or according to conspiracy theorists "hacking") on Facebook. A number of people complained that their accounts mysteriously "liked" Romney and could not be changed.

Of course take the President's social media cachet with a grain of salt. Social media's most active members tend to skew to a younger demographic, and the younger demographic also tends to be remarkably consistent at being inconsistent in terms of voting and political fundraising.
In elections that are often decided by narrow margins in battleground states, one must wonder if a candidate who loses the social media battle by such a wide margin will be able to win in future elections, as social media's influence grows by the year.

How To Pay For College!
"When going to the library, it's all about comfort and layers. I wear black leggings because they're comfortable, can be worn with anything and look better than fuzzy pajama pants! My army-green jacket is perfect because it is light-weight, stylish and will keep me warm when the library is pumping the AC." —Amy Kelly, University of Maryland
"Whenever I head to the library, my first fashion concern is comfort, so I opt for super-simple jeans and sneakers. This time, I threw on my favorite pair of dark gray denim with coordinating lace-up sneakers and a breezy sleeveless blouse. The multi-colored stripes add character by brightening up the all-gray outfit. After grabbing my book bag and much-needed coffee, I'm ready to go!" —Kellen Fitzgerald, Fordham University
Pretty Amazing Changed My Life!


text: You're going to have to wait a while, that gun was just release within the last couple of months, the holster makers are always need a bit of time to acquire molds etc. to make holsters for the new guns that come out. Check back in about three months and there should be more options.


text: Nice looking gun. I just recommended the 9mm version on another thread. I have read all good things about the gun, and have held one a few times at gun shows. Very nice DA trigger pull. As I said before - if I didn't already have 6 polymer handguns, I'd probably get one

Hi all.
I'm looking to do some travel towards the end of the year, possibly from October onwards and rather then just visit places, I want to also do some work. I had considerd taking a TEFL course a good few years back but then my cirumstances changed and I made other plans.
I am now in a position where I have no committments, and I want to take the opportunity and do something completely different, rewarding in a foreign setting.
My questions is this: I want to do a TEFL course however, I completed only one year of my two year degree course. This was a good 11 years ago (I am 38). Since then I have worked with various government agencies (further and school education) and local government as a marketing/communications manager.
Would my previous experience help in securing a position that would require a degree or not? I am not too concerned if not but wanted to ask the question prior to planning my one - two year break.
If you have any pointers suggestions for locations where, once I have completed my TEFL (and any courses you suggest) I would appreciate it.
Many thanks

I want to share something good with you, by first pointing out a little bad. In the past few months, we have been bombarded (mostly behind the scenes) with rumors of mass exoduses from TDH as well as rumors of TDH's "downfall." Even today, the ugly face of malcontention reared its head. With all of this unpleasentness, even I grow a bit dejected and worn at times. Or I do until I look at things like this months post count.
TDH's post count is one of the main ways in which we measure TDH's success because it is a good measure to determine the activity level of the board. While some boards may register a large number of members, if they aren't posting and aren't actively contributing to the board, their presence doesn't count for much.
As we approach our 7th year anniversary (in March of 2009) we have hit a huge milestone. This month alone, you, our members, have contributed 10 THOUSAND posts to TDH!!! That is over 320 posts EVERY day!!! I want to take this moment to thank each and every one of you for making this board a success, and inspiring us, the administration, to push on and to strive to make TDH an even better place for you in the coming year! I can't tell you how honored I am to be here with you and serve your needs! Thank you!
PS. We have some very exciting news coming later this week, and some exciting new opportunities! Keep your eyes peeled and thanks again!

Finding worthy products for price-conscious custom homes is a tough gig. But if you love the hunt like we do, it's bound to reward everyone involved. Yes, your products must prove penny-wise, but they can't look cheap or perform poorly. They must withstand the rigors of everyday life at least as well as their more precious counterparts.
Admittedly, cheap is in the eye of the budget holder, but we think the collection on the following pages is a bargain at twice the price.

Hello anybody there??? Hello?
The design you tried to link to is inspired by the wonderful Eddie Izzard and is totally in keeping with the 8-bit theme. It's not necessarily "everyday" but it's not a huge stretch. I don't even know what this is. Portal reference blending into death reference? And it's patriotic? I think "huh?" summed it up pretty well.

Love the design, wish it was fogged! One thing I love about it that's kind of unrelated to the design is that it takes up the whole shirt, so it's not just DESIGN and the empty space for the other 99% of the shirt.
Re: Hip Knitter
My 8-bit memories are all of text adventures and ill-advised educational software on the Apple IIe.
My 8-bit design experience consists entirely of putting together pixel grids for knitting patterns.

Re: Morning Powerup
Hm... I haven't really seen that many other ramyb designs, so I can't see what the fuss is about, but I actually like the design. It's clean, crisp, a good shirt for coffee-lovers...what's wrong with it? I did see your other one, though, and I have to say that I like this one over the other.
I don't get why this isn't in the top either. I love the lettering and coloring of the text, and the way the cake is drawn really makes me hungry. Great design!

I've installed truecrypt on BT2 final. The program runs useing this commands truecrypt -i, but near the end it says no kernel module loaded.
I looked around the harddrive and find linux 2.6.20 and in there is kernel folder with a makefile, but when i run it it comes up with errors.
The question is, is the kernel loaded or just copyed on the hardrive to get some programs to run, and if how can i comiple it.
Thanks in advance
Does BT2 allow you to rebuild the kernel that is allready on there, as I only have dial-up and a 50mb file will take 5 hours.
I read web site on compileing the kernel, but it mentioned a ./configure file, but i can't find one in /usr/src/linux 2.6.20/kernel , it only has a makefile, which as errors.
yes you can recompile the kernel that is already there.
I'm a compulsive post editor, you might wanna wait until my post has been online for 5-10 mins before quoting it as it will likely change.
I know I seem harsh in some of my replies. SORRY! But if you're doing something illegal or posting something that seems to be obvious BS I'm going to call you on it.
purhate, how would i go about compileing the kernel.
thorin, I got truecrypt to run, but it doesn't find the kernel module.
well your have to come up with a kernel patch or something otherwise its not going to do you any good. Some chioce search terms would be truecrypt + slackware + 2.6.20.(whatever kernel it is I forgot) and see what you come up with. I can help you rebuild the kernel but chances are it needs a patch.

Forest Journal -- Dewey Woods: for a more glorious Sunapee
JACK SAVAGE | July 06. 2013 1:12AM
Welsh (1851-1941) was a summer resident of Sunapee during the early decades of the 20th century who was known for his annual walking sojourns from his home in Germantown, Pa., to his summer place in New Hampshire. He completed his last such trek in 1928 at age 77.
"The Welsh Trail takes you into a new patch of woods that used to have an open view of the lake," Eliassen said. "Part of the trail also allows easy access to a set of trails that interpret forest management that were established by Sawyer Webb a few years ago."Every town has a special place like Sunapee's Dewey Woods and Garnet Hill. And every town has someone like Herbert Welsh or Barbara Chalmers. We are all better off as a result.
