CHAPEL HILL, N.C. - The No. 59 North Carolina men's tennis team (11-12, 4-6 ACC) routed Boston College (5-15, 0-10 ACC) by a score of 7-0 in the team's regular season finale on Sunday at Cone-Kenfield Tennis Center. Seniors William Parker and Taylor Meyer both claimed singles victories in their final match in Chapel Hill, with Parker also contributing to a doubles win.
Carolina got off to a quick start, sweeping the doubles matches.
Oystein Steiro and James Coxe tallied the Tar Heels' first doubles victory with an 8-4 win on court three. The 81st-ranked pairing of Brett Clark and Esben Hess-Olesen also claimed an 8-4 victory, overwhelming Boston College's duo of Billy Gorkenberger and Kyle Childree at No. 2. In the last doubles match to conclude, No. 90 William Parker and Nelson Vick downed Philip Nelson and Michael McGinnis by another 8-4 count.
The Tar Heels were equally dominant in singles play, winning all six matches in straight sets.
Oystein Steiro notched Carolina's first singles victory with a 6-0, 6-4 win over Kyle Childree on court five. Nelson Vick added to the Tar Heel advantage on court three, where he cruised past the Eagles' Billy Gorkenberger, 6-1, 6-2.
At the No. 1 seed, No. 44 Esben Hess-Olesen secured a Carolina victory by taking out Philip Nelson, 6-2, 6-3. Brett Clark added a 6-3, 6-2 win on court two.
Senior William Parker claimed a dominant 6-4, 6-0 win at No. 4 in his last match at Cone-Kenfield Tennis Center. Fellow senior Taylor Meyer finished off the day for the Heels on court six, taking a 6-3, 6-2 win in what also represented his final match in Chapel Hill.
Parker and Meyer were honored in a brief ceremony that took place between just prior to the singles matches.
"I just wanted to play as well as possible and go out strong," Parker said. "I was trying to enjoy it. It's probably one of those things that will hit you more later than it does right now. But I just tried to enjoy it."
Taylor Meyer expressed similar sentiments.
"I was telling myself to enjoy it because it was going to be the last time I played for UNC on our home courts," Meyer said. "I'm glad I got to go off on a win. That meant a lot."
Coach Sam Paul was also happy to see his two seniors get victories in their final matches in Chapel Hill.
"First of all, I want to congratulate our seniors," Paul said. "They have given us a lot of tremendous moments on these courts, so I'm really proud of both those guys...I'm happy both of them got a win.
"Our focus right now is just on the ACC Tournament and who our first opponent will be. We just want to play another match. We are playing our best tennis right now."
The Tar Heels will travel to Cary, N.C. on Thursday for the first round of the ACC Tournament. The opponent and match time is TBA.

Community efforts begin today to support an Elizabethtown child battling cancer.
The parents of 14-month-old Brooklyn Disselkamp took her to see a doctor the day after Thanksgiving, worried about a cold and lack of appetite.
An ultrasound showed what doctors thought was a tumor on Brooklyn's kidney.
At Kosair Children's Hospital in Louisville, more tests showed a large mass in that area and doctors diagnosed her with Stage 4 neuroblastoma – a pediatric cancer that creates tumors in the body and tumor cells in bone marrow.
Treatment is expected to keep Brooklyn and her parents, Erin and Daniel, at Kosair for a long time. Erin is expecting the couple's second child.
Selina Phillips of Steubenville, Ohio, said her niece Brooklyn typically is sweet and sassy with a stubborn streak.
"She has her tongue out all the time in photos," she said "She's always in a good mood."
Brooklyn's grandparents visit the hospital every day and family members take turns bringing meals to everyone staying and visiting.
The family passed information back and forth through text messages and a private Facebook page, while making information about Brooklyn available on their own Facebook pages. A public page called Brooklyn's Believers was made available Wednesday.
Phillips said her large family always has been tight-knit and approached Brooklyn's illness assuming they'd band together and help the girl and her parents face the problem.
They hadn't thought thousands of area residents also would want to be part of Brooklyn's fight, Phillips said.
"It's so much bigger than us," she said. "It's been so wonderful and amazing."
The first benefit for Brooklyn is from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. today at Gatti's Pizza on North Mulberry Street in Elizabethtown. Customers can make donations to Brooklyn and a percentage of buffet purchases go to the family.
The money is meant to offset costs as Brooklyn's parents take time off work to stay with her in the hospital, Phillips said.
"We know this is going to be astronomically expensive," she said. "No matter how good the insurance is, there are always some things it won't cover."
Phillips thinks her brother and sister-in-law have been overwhelmed by donations, but Brooklyn and her family still need donations and prayers — and community members have been generous with both, she said.
"We're very surprised," she said. "We're kind of in awe. We're very grateful, and we're kind of humbled."
A concert to benefit Brooklyn featuring the Brian Young Band is scheduled for 7 p.m. Dec. 19 at Pritchard Community Center on South Mulberry Street.
Donations also can be made at www.giveforward.com/brooklynsbelievers.
The family is setting up a nonprofit organization called Brooklyn's Believers. Phillips said members hope after Brooklyn's fight, the nonprofit can help other families in similar situations.
Phillips said her family has benefited from such generosity because Brooklyn and her parents are staying in a part of Kosair Children's Hospital improved by donations from the parents of Addison Jo Blair. In May 2011, at age 3, Addison lost a battle with the same kind of cancer Brooklyn is fighting.
"We just feel like there's no reason why we can't do something, too," Phillips said.
Amber Coulter can be reached at (270) 505-1746 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

This knife is made after an original from 9th century that was excavated in Birka (Sweden). Knives like this were used for hollowing wood when making bowls and other dishes e.g.
Number of product reviews: 0 Rewieved so far: 0 customers.
The daggers are approximately made as follows. The basic shape of the blade is made by a laser CNC machine. It is burned from spring steel. The semi-finished blade follows then in the groove cutter, where the cutting edge and the groove are milled. The blade is then oil-quenched and tempered to the desired hardness. Then the guard and pommel is attached to the blade tang. The tang is usually peened at the end (behind the pommel) and the cross-guard hard soldered with brass. Hardwood plates are placed under the handle wrapping from genuine cowhide so that the handle is sufficiently robust for a safe grasp. The steels surfaces obtain the desired finish in the end - with a wire brush or with a felt disc with polishing paste.

OK So all these politicians are saying the the reason for back ground checks and all these new laws are to assure that dangerous firearms don't get in the hands of crazies and criminals,,,OK so far so good,,, I agree with that. Hell none of us want that!!! I also was under the impression that was the law for gun dealers for years anyhow. Except,,,,, they hadn't ,addressed if once we do pass the background check and are proven to be of good character why are they,,,still,,,, calling for restrictions on certain guns and us????? They say they ,,,, "agree with the Second Amendment",, and the "rights of the people" but want to restrict what we can and can't have,,,, what they scarred of??? Make's ya wonder don't it? Have they something to fear/hide do they?
I find this very strange. After all I'm a combat vet,, so I know how to handle pretty much all weapons,,humped a 60 , 12ga, and a 45 for almost 2 years through the bush,, hunted sense I was 8-9 years old,,,so I guess that I'm qualify-ed there ,,an X LEO,,,0 crimes or charges for the almost 63 years of my life,, a FFL dealer for longer than I can even remember to be honest ,,,got it somewhere around 1994-96???
So I think when the back ground checks come in then,, we that are cleared should be cleared to have what to hell ever we want,,, the Constitution doesn't stipulate type of gun ,,,, correct??
Or do they,, or do they not,, believe in the 2nd,,,,,If they do,,, it say's it all clearly in black and white. No room for discussion, even the Supreme Court says so.
I'm SOOOOOOO Confused!!!! Can anybody walk me through this Please!!!!!
I'm confused.

What a great find this website is, well it would be if I had any ancestors in West Sussex! I lived in Horsham in Sussex many years ago, but didn't have to apply for a payment from the poor box so really have no reason to think it will be of use to me in my research!
However I can appreciate the work that went into create this database and how invaluable it is to those with ancestors from West Sussex. The database covers the period 1635 – 1835 and give access to the poor law records in this database as follows:
- Search gives Poor Law Record lists against Surname, Forename, Year and Parish parameters
- Surnames gives alphabetic surname listing of all those people listed in the Poor Law Records
- Parishes gives a listing of all those parishes whose Poor Law Records are included in this database
- Order Types gives a listing of all the many different types of Poor Law Records
- Years gives a listing of all the years for which there are Poor Law Records
The database is the work of the Sussex Record Society and they are to be congratulated on it.

Mark Stoebe, from Great Falls, Montana, shared a recipe with me for pheasant. The style of preparation comes originally from the Basque region of southern France and so has both French and Spanish influence.
The following is my own version of Mark's favorite recipe.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Wash and pat dry pheasant pieces. Place in the bottom of a clay cooker or a dutch oven pot. Add oil, wine, vinegar, brown sugar, garlic, scallions, basil, parsley, pepper, olives and 1 cup plums. Stir, cover and place in oven for about 1-1/2 hours. About 15 minutes before completion, add remaining 1 cup plums. Stir and return to oven.
Serve with brown rice and crusty french bread.
Serves 4-6.
Cotes de Beaune-Village, a burgundy by Joseph Drouhin or Louis Jadot. Both have olive and earthy characteristics and medium tannins that make an inexpensive burgundy a good choice with this style of food.

Discussion in '2007 Playoffs' started by Dlev59, May 15, 2007.
Just a reminder, tonight's game is on at 8:00 PM Eastern, on ESPN and local My20 Detroit.
I'm in the middle of racing between dogsitting venues before the game starts so I can't find the link but Professor wrote the BEST article about this maddening quality of the Pistons. It made me feel so much better about this character defect of my favorite team. Maybe someone can find it and bump it up. I think it was in his original Dharma Cameleon article. It's a must read if you are like me just mystified by the Pistons/Bulls series and how it has developed.
Here you go K. Enter the Dharma Chameleon » Human Victory Cigar
I feel like we are going to lose tonight, but last game I was about as certain as you can be that we would win. I think we take game 7.
Chat is open. http://www.pistonsforum.com/misc.php?do=flashchat
I picked the Pistons in 7, but after the first two beat downs, I figured I must be totally wrong. If this team has any pride, they win tonight. Because I know that Chicago has pride, I predict a close game. 88-82, Pistons.
What a game! Pistons back in the ECF baby!
PISTONS WIN!!! Conference finals here we come. OH YEAH BABY :winner_first_h4h:
Pistons ok........Flip ok...... DEEeetroit Basketball......... da Bulls...........
Whew...now we can exhale. I'm proud of the way our guys stepped up in the second half. CB was big going to the basket in the second half after struggling in the first, Tay was enormous in the 4th quarter, and all three Pistons big men (Sheed, CWebb, Dice) were huge on the boards and on D in the second half. It was a true team effort to bring this one home. I had a pretty bad crisis of faith in this team after Game 5, and the terrible second quarter tonight kept me worried, but they showed great poise and teamwork in the second half.
Well said Dumars. Bring on Lebron.
:p_welldone: nuff said!
Great win tonight! The boys really stepped it up despite some adverse *coughcrappyrefscough*conditions. Sheed was a MONSTER tonight. He was EVERYWHERE on the court. Blocking shots, fighting through screens, controlling the glass, hitting huge shots, running his mouth. Tay just manhandled Deng. Dice was all over the place, hustling like a mad man. CB really took charge of the team when the game could have gotten out of hand. Miami, here we come! Oh wait... Ok, well even if we get past the ECF, we'll have a really tough time against the Mavs....
It's especially nice taking out the Bulls because those writers from Chi town were getting to darned cocky for my liking.
Not much here but: Pistons take Game 6, will play for East title again
Can somebody please tell me why we can`t play with such urgency and focus all the time!! You could feel the hustle coming through your TV after each missed shot came off the rim. Sheed was perhaps the most active on defense since the post-Ben era. Tay used Deng early and often. Hell, even Lindsey made a few timely jumpers and provided some pressure D, however, he had nothing to do with the win.......... Hopefully, the Pistons have learned their lesson about flipping a a switch in the playoffs - maybe not, didn`t this same thing happen last year??
I can breathe easy again and have a decent night's sleep. Finally the Pistons come out with a focus and purpose. The 2 losses, though nerve racking for fans, were a cold wake up call. Five straight trips to the ECF
www. 670thescore.com is CRACKING ME UP!!!!!!!!!!!They are: - dogging Ben for not stepping up and he got the big bucks - PJ for peetering out - not having a legit pt guard - no low post scorer This is what I love about Chicago. No other city loves and hates their teams like the Home of the Projects!
I wonder if the Chicago sportswriters are going to go off on Ben for being late to the arena again. ESPN said he was 14 minutes late again...but Paxson was an hour late!
PJ only scored because he was left unguarded. The Pistons were paying attention to the Gordon, Hinrich and Deng and he was able to capitalize uncontested.

Hey vods,
Dont know if this is ok here but here goes.
I started a new mask "Mandalore the Ultimate" ,though it is not still finished but would like some HONEST opinions, good or bad I can take it. :-\
1- What color should I put the T-Visor ? *thinking of RED or BLACK*
2- Is the color OK ?
The visor and breathing device that attaches to the bottom of the mask is still to do and the cowl for the head and all the rest...
What do you think?

My edge tool looks like this, but I don't know how to use it.
Well there are numerous tutorial videos on Youtube if you search but here is the basics.
Step 1 - Use a diamond/deburr stone to remove nicks/burrs from your edge (you should easily be able to find them was sliding your fingers along the edge) - this is kind of important because your file won't work on case-harden steel and you are going to mess up your edge (be sure to regularly rinse the iron filling off your diamond stone in a little cup of water as you go along). Make sure to wipe the edge done with a wet paper towel if you are going to continue to slide your fingers on it (or you will get iron splinters into your fingertips).
Step 2 - run a permanent marker over your edge, that way you can see which parts of the edge you've already sharpened (i.e. the marker will be rubbed away.
Step 3 - first figure out how the file guide works - figure out which position is for the base edge (bottom of the board) and which position is for the side edge. Figure out what the default bevel angle the guide is using. Also figure out which direction the file goes (usually there is a small arrow on the side of the file). If you can't figure any of this out... STOP.
Step 4 - Starting at the nose of the board, lightly slide the file along the edge of the board in small, even 6-8 inches SINGLE-direction passes toward the tail of the board. Many people use way too much force (barely more than the weight of your hand) and too many passes (and/or file in both direction) with the file and remove too much steel.
Step 5 - test the edge with the back fo your finger nail... if the edge remove a shaving of fingernail... it is probably plenty sharp enough for you. If not, repeat step 4 with even lighter pressure and fewer passes.
Don't be one of those idiots who tries to be hardcore and ULTRA sharpens his board edge. That's as stupid as using a file to dull the entire edge for rail riding.
If this sounds confusing... take your board to a SHOP and have them do it FIRST. THEN do a little maintenance on your board after every day of riding (easier working with an edge that is in good condition than one that is banged up and completely dull). I highly recommend doing step 1 for about 2 mins at the end of every day. That is going make your board turn smoother in the snow and hang up less on boxes and rails.

In need of edge clean-up/tune but not sure what to do
I've rode for about maybe 8 days this season on my brand new Never Summer SL. I can tell my edges are in need of a clean-up so I thought now would be a good time to determine what bevel and detune (if any) I should be using.
I'm trying to learn boxes & rails and would like my board to be tuned ideally to avoid board damage & injury but I also freeride and would like my board to not slip on ice when I ride night sessions. Is this even possible to have both without sacrificing something?
Here are some pics of my edges, I haven't detuned or tuned them yet, so anything you see is done by natural riding.

Yeah, I made a little Infinity program because I was bored and it only took a few minutes.
If your a person like myself who use an unsupported browser, don't want to use IE, hate having to load games by logging in on the website first and enjoy having an organized desktop... then perhaps you'll find my program useful. If not, whatever.
Basically, what the program is, is its a little program that loads the official Infinity site. Sounds stupid right? Well yeah, probably... but it only loads the part that shows the login area. Whats the advantage of this?:
a) No need to load the browser itself, or navigate to get into the site.
b) If you use Firefox or something it doesn't support, this program will still work since it runs off IE (as long as you have some kind of Windows).
c) It looks pretty damn nice.
Here's a pic of the program running:
If your interested, you can download it here. Be sure to read the readme as it might have some useful information:

In the last issue, we asked you to tell us what you thought about our LS1 transplant '90 LX Mustang project. Here's the deal: so far it's gone 11.20s for about $7,000 total investment. But it's a Ford with a Chevy engine, so it ticks people off.What's your opinion? Do you give it thumbs up, or thumbs down? Should we get "Benny The Bomb" to blow hisself up in it at Englishtown?Let it rip...
I have enjoyed the build, i say you put anything in a car that will fit your budget, ford, chevy, mopar or otherwise
I want to know what you've spent so far on this project... your original premise for this thing was how much cheaper it would be than putting together a SBF that would make the same horsepower. you've virtually transplanted an ENTIRE LS1 Camaro into a Fox Chassis, there is no way that those of us who live in the REAL world could purchase all the parts you've now transplanted into the Fox for less than a nice stroker SBF. if you want to raise your reader's hackles with a project like this to get publicity, all fine and good, but please don't insult us by trying to say this is is the cheaper, easier route to a ten second Fox Mustang... we're really not that stupid... just be honest about your intent...
A very interesting project.If you guys can make this swap popular enuff , maybe GM Performance Parts will start offering all the stuff needed and with GM part numbers to boot ! One stop shopping for all those old fox body owners .
I don't have a mustang or camaro, but I never cared for seeing a SBC stuffed into different bodies. To me it is an easy way out. I understand an LS1 is more difficult to swap, but it will get easier with all the aftermarket support GM has. So to me, leave the LS1 in the GM body. The Chevy crowd doesn't need another ego boost, they already think they're wonderful as it is.
I like the Orphan and give it a thumbs up. I'm Pontiac guy and still like to see different combinations and options on various types of vehicles. With the popularity of the LS1 engine, a swap like this is not only feasible, but also likely by some readers. Just the idea of it makes me want to go buy a Mustang and tear out the engine.
I think you should raffle it off and donate the proceeds to your next project or a good charity. My wife is doing a frame off,She is actually doing the work,on a 54 Ford 2 door wagon. I have a 400 Pontiac sitting in the garage that might go into it. So if you have it, why not *** off the masses. Isn't that what Hot Rodding has been doing since its inception? If it's too loud, Wear earplugs!
You have been just givin' the Bird
As far as transvestites go,I guess it's ok....
I like it - it's good tech. And I'm a die hard Ford guy. If Ford had bothered to engineer a decent new tech engine, or spent some more minutes on the pushrod motor instead of that wacko "modular" POS, things might occasionally go the other direction.
1967 Falcon 4 door - 351C1970 Mustang coupe - 351Chttp://raceabilene.com/kelly/hotrodOwner built, owner abused.
Thats true,Ford's spys got it all wroung sometime around 1988 when they told the powers that be GM was building a new V-8 along the lines of the ZL Vette engine to replace all the V-8's.I'm sure we (Ford Guys) would have a fairly killer push rod V-8 now if Ford guessed that GM was doing a complete redesign of the SBC.We would still have exhaust ports that suck but the short block might be cool.Ya Right!
Let the orphan live. I have a 93 5.0 mustang, and I dont feel the project is offensive. I`m 52 years old and remember magazines in the 70`s doing small block chevy into early year mustang swaps. *** I think Hooker Headers made a kit with motor mounts and headers. Go for it.
Let it live! its killer for all the right reasons!i have worked in the hotrod parts retail business for 15 years, and you cannot build as much power from a small block ford stroker part for part as you can from the LS1 for anywhere near the same money. The LS1 is the new hot rod motor for the 21st century....yes the new hemi is nice, but the mopar parts people have bumped their heads on pricing. As far as the mod ford goes, if it dont have push rods it sucks! i live in west central alabama and fox bodies here are dirt cheap, $150.00 to $500.00 for nice bodies less motor and trans.the LS1 enjoys an aftermarket that i dont think the hemi or mod motors will ever enjoy, at least not to the same level. The hemi will always be over priced and the mods just dont have guts.a well built small ford stroker can make a ton of power, just like the small block chevy version, but dollar for dollar and mod for mod, the LS1 is the way to go. As far as puting it in a ford, it can be done cheap and the fox bodies are light.its not like your putting it in a '65 mustang (now that WOULD be wrong) and the fox bodies have become the desposible performance car..thats why it can be done as cheaply. more power to ya! and again i say let it live!
I think the orphan project is a good idea. Even some Ford fans would havs to agree that it would stop some arguments about whether Ford or Chevy motors performed better. If the CHevy motors pushes the Mustang to lower times than the same year Mustang with a Ford motor, then it would squash beliefs that Ford is better. Im not going to lie to you, im a Chevy guy, but i do like the Mustang platform. Putting a Chevy motor into a Mustang would be the greatest thing to happen to a Mustang since Carol Shelby himself. Besides that, ive always wanted to put a big block Chevy into a Mustang, and im glad that someone is actually doing it, and covering all the work on the project in a magazine
i'm a ford guy. my buddy has an 02 z-28 and i always tell him it would be great if the engine was in a nice car( the camaro is a piece of *** i don't agree with the swap but i do like it. it ran what,11's first time out? can't wait ti hit the lotto so i can do my own swap, a 514 crate engine in a 70 ls-6 chevelle

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. - Sophomore Chad Tutton scored on a over-handed bounce shot with three seconds to play to lift #11 North Carolina to a wild 16-15 victory over #5 Princeton Saturday afternoon at Fetzer Field. The game was played before a sun-drenched crowd of 4,362 raucous fans.
They witnessed the Tar Heels score twice in the last 37 seconds to play to pull out a much needed victory heading into next Wednesday's rivalry game against Duke at Fetzer Field at 7:30 p.m. It was the largest crowd at Fetzer Field since April 7, 2012 when 5,138 saw Virginia beat the Tar Heels.
The two teams combined for 31 goals on 99 shots with the Tigers outshooting the Tar Heels 56-43. One of the differences in the game proved to be shooting accuracy. Carolina put 28 of its 43 shots on goal while Princeton was on cage only 25 times in 56 attempts.
Princeton's high-powered offense was all the Tar Heels could handle as the Tigers proved their mettle on the offensive end of the field. But the Tar Heels preserved to score one more. The 15 goals were the most conceded by Carolina in a victorious situation since UNC beat top-ranked Virginia 19-18 at Fetzer Field on April 6, 1996.
The wildness of the fourth quarter was indicative of the crazy ebb and flow of momentum that existed throughout the contest. Carolina was up 11-10 heading into the final quarter before Jeff Froccaro beat Kieran Burke low to even the game at 11-11 with 11:46 to play. The Tar Heels reclaimed the lead on a Jimmy Bitter goal assisted by Marcus Holman with 10:11 left but just 22 seconds later it was tied again at 12-12 after a goal from 12 yards out by Mike MacDonald.
Within the next three minutes, Carolina went back up by a pair. An extra-man goal by Tutton, assisted by Bitter, gave the Heels a 13-12 lead at 8:04 before Joey Sankey took a pass from Holman and beat O'Connor on a five-hole shot exactly one minute later. The Tar Heels got the ball back but O'Connor stonewalled Holman at the 5:34 mark and MacDonald scored his fifth goal of the game on the fast break just 18 seconds later.
The Tar Heels would not possess the ball again for 4:05 and in that span Princeton got enough looks at the goal to produce a lead. After Jake Froccaro won the ensuing face-off, Princeton got off six shots at Burke over a span of one minutes and forty seconds. The Tigers won a ground ball battle near midfield with 2:37 to play and Tom Schreiber stepped up a rocketed one past Burke to tie the game at 14-14 with 2:30 to play. Jeff Froccaro won the next face-off and Schreiber's outside shot beat Burke with 1:41 to play with the assist to Kip Orban.
Then it really got crazy. Jeff Froccaro won the next face-off and Princeton looked to kill time. But UNC face-off man R.G. Keenan pursued Chris White of the Tigers into the right corner behind the goal and stripped him and scooped up the ground ball with 1:11 left. UNC's clear was good and the Tar Heels called timeout with 53 seconds to play to set up a play. With 39 seconds left, Matt O'Connor denied Jimmy Bitter's shot from the right side, but in a wild scrum in front of the goal, Davey Emala scooped up the ground ball and scored on the rebound into the empty net to tie the game at 15 with 37 seconds left.
Keenan then won his 20th face-off of the game and after two quick shots by Marcus Holman the Tar Heels kept possession with 11 seconds to play. After a Princeton timeout, Holman carried it from the left side and fed Bitter at the top of the box. Bitter quickly moved the ball to the right wing where Tutton finished the comeback with his bounce shot past O'Connor, sending the partisan crowd into a frenzy.
The game marked the fourth successive one-goal decision for the Tar Heels, who have split those four games, all against nationally ranked teams. UNC improved to 3-2 on the season with the win. The Tigers fell for the first time this season to go to 3-1. They had run off successive wins over Hofstra, Johns Hopkins and Villanova to start the season.
Carolina had nine different goal scorers in the game with Jimmy Bitter, Chad Tutton and Davey Emala each scoring three goals. Bitter also had three assists in the game, giving him six points in the game, just one short of his career high set last year against Hofstra. Joey Sankey finished with six points as well on two goals and four assists while Marcus Holman had a goal and three assists for the Tar Heels.
Sankey's six points matched his career high in a game set last year against Mercer and Duke. Emala's three goals were the most he has scored since tallying four in the opening game of the 2012 season against Penn State. It was Emala's goal with 37 seconds to play that forged a 15-15 tie and set up Tutton's last second heroics. Tutton also matched his career high for goals in a game. He also had three against Mercer, Virginia and Duke last season.
Carolina got single goals from four midfielders - Jake Matthai, T.J. Kemp, R.G. Keenan and Ryan Creighton. Kemp also added an assist. The Tar Heels needed every last one of those goals to overcome a magnificent offensive performance by Princeton's Mike MacDonald, Tom Schreiber and Jeff Froccaro. MacDonald had a game-high seven points with his career high five goals and two assists. Schreiber had a six-point day with four goals and two assists and Froccaro finished with four goals. Jake Froccaro had a goal and two assists for the Tigers while Kip Orban had a goal and an assist.
Carolina had now played four successive games decided by a single goal with a loss to Massachusetts 12-11, a win over Fairfield 10-9, a triple overtime loss to Notre Dame 10-9 and the 16-15 win over Princeton. The last time that the Tar Heels had played four straight games decided by a single goal came in 2009 when during a mid-season streak Carolina lost to Maryland 8-7, beat Johns Hopkins 10-9 in overtime, lost to Virginia 11-10 and beat Ohio State 12-11.
In 1996, Carolina played a string of five successive games decided by a single goal during a similar mid-season stretch, During that particular stretch, UNC lost to Duke 11-10, beat Maryland 17-16, lost to Johns Hopkins 9-8, beat Virginia 19-18 and beat Notre Dame 11-10.
Another key in the game was R.G. Keenan's work at the face-off X for Carolina. Facing four different Princeton face-off men, Keenan won 20 of his 34 attempts and had a game-high eight ground balls. The 20 face-off victories were a career high for Keenan. His previous best was 19 face-off victories against Penn State on February 11, 2012. This marks only the sixth time in UNC history that a Tar Heel player has won 20 face-offs in a match. Shane Walterhoefer did it four times, including a school record 23 wins against Ohio State in 2008 while Todd Oudemool was the long-time record holder with 22 wins against Towson in 1989.
The Tar Heels came out a little flat and Princeton took advantage to stake itself to a three-goal lead 8:13 into the game. Mike MacDonald had the second and third goals in that run for the Tigers. But UNC responded later in the quarter with a four-goal run in just 2:01. The Tar Heels had four different goal scorers - Jake Matthai, Davey Emala on the extra-man, Joey Sankey and Jimmy Bitter - to go up 4-3 with 1:38 left in the first quarter.
Princeton scored three of the next five goals with Jake Frocarro's unassisted tally tying the game at 6-6 with 11:25 left in the first half. The Heels then went on a four-goal run to take their biggest lead of the contest at 10-6 with 4:31 left in the opening half. T.J. Kemp, Chad Tutton, R.G. Keenan and Davey Emala had the four tallies. They came in a span of only 3:01 as the scoring runs for both teams continued.
Princeton would score the next three goals, wrapped around the halftime break, with MacDonald scoring before intermission and then Jeff Froccaro getting the first two goals of the third quarter to cut the UNC lead to 10-9 with 9:50 left in the third period. Holman and Schreiber traded goals less than a minute apart and then amazingly neither team scored for nine minutes and 38 seconds from the 6:24 mark of the third period until the 11:46 mark of the final stanza.
Princeton scored on all four of its extra-man opportunities in the game while the Tar Heels cashed in on both of theirs. Two true freshman goalies faced off against each other in the contest with Kieran Burke making 10 saves for UNC while Matt O'Connor had 12 saves for Princeton, including six in the fourth quarter alone. Despite the wild nature of the game, there were only 27 turnovers combined between the two teams. Princeton committed 14 and Carolina 13.

By Chris Harris
Marouane Chamakh believes that Arsenal's fans have taken him to their hearts because he puts his heart into his performances.
The Moroccan striker has been a revelation in his first season in English football, scoring ten goals in 17 starts for his new club, including four in his last five games.
Chamakh's aerial ability has given Arsenal another route to goal and he clearly relishes the physical challenge of the Premier League. The 26-year-old thinks this has helped endear him to the supporters.
"I think the fact that I give everything [is why they have taken to me]," he told Arsenal.com.
"I give 200 per cent, I play with my heart, I've got guts, I give everything I've got. I don't cheat or cut corners, that's my strength, my character and I think that they like me for it."
When Arsène Wenger swooped for Chamakh in May, no one described him as 'prolific' - sure, he scored his fair share of goals but his role was as much about linking play and creating space for others.
That reputation will need reviewing if the Moroccan continues his current run and, having reached double figures already, Chamakh has set himself a personal target before the end of the season.
"Personally, I've never been a great goalscorer, I've never scored more than 20 goals a season, but it's up to the manager as to how he uses his players," he said.
"For me, if I can weigh in with 15 to 20 goals, it would be a very, very good season. Whatever happens I hope to continue my progress, which went really well under Laurent Blanc [at Bordeaux] and long may it continue.
"It's gone really well with the set-up here, I hardly knew anyone when I arrived but they've all made me feel very welcome. It has been easy to settle in and this has allowed me to express myself and that's very important.
"Personally, I'm happy. I can do better but yes, I am happy."
The full 'Close Up' interview with Chamakh will be available 'on demand' on Arsenal TV Online soon.Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc. Permission to use quotations from this article is granted subject to appropriate credit being given to www.arsenal.com as the source

NH hospital personnel to train for disasters
"We already have built a strong coalition of hospital emergency preparedness here in New Hampshire, but training together at this level will be of immeasurable value to our increased readiness statewide," said Deborah Yeager, director of Emergency Preparedness at NHHA, who will join in the training. "We work in partnership to respond to events that come our way, so this training will further strengthen the depth of our common knowledge and experience."At the end of the week, participants will take part in a full-scale disaster response exercise.
"You are only as good as what you drill for," said Ray Leblanc, emergency preparedness and safety coordinator at Exeter Hospital."A few years ago, we came back from training about a week before the H1N1 outbreak," said Mike Melody, director of safety and emergency preparedness at Concord Hospital. "Completely on the fly, we remodeled our incident command center to be like the one we trained in. We smoothly transitioned into crisis response mode.''The group will attend training sessions on hospital emergency response training and health care leadership during mass casualty incidents. The cost of the training, and all travel expenses associated with attending a session, is covered by FEMA.

text: Alert: Withholding tax for retirees The Internal Revenue Service has issued new tax withholding tables to reflect the Making Work Pay credit on earned income that was contained in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. While pension benefits are not considered earned income and NOT subject to the Making Work Pay credit, IRS nevertheless instructed the payers of retirement benefits to use the new federal withholding tables. Unfortunately, this likely will result in under-withholding on pension income, and retirees, most of whom are on a fixed income, may find themselves unexpectedly owing taxes at the end of the year. If the IRS does not modify its position on this matter, benefit payers, acting on the new IRS directive, will begin withholding using tax tables that are known to be inappropriate for most retirees. While pension payers have indicated they will do everything possible to notify retirees of the reason for the change in the net amount of their benefit payment and the potential for under-withholding, the only way benefit recipients can change the withholding amounts is to instruct their pension systems to increase the amount of their withholding. Furthermore, at the close of 2010, they will have to readjust their withholding to reflect the fact that the tables for 2011 will no longer incorporate the Making Work Pay credit. NEA is currently working to remedy an unintended consequence of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act that could cause financial hardship for retirees. While NEA pushes for a legislative fix, we urge all retirees to contact their financial advisors immediately and discuss adjusting their withholding. NEA believes that the IRS should allow the use of the old tables for income that is not eligible for the Making Work Pay credit. NEA is actively involved with AFSCME, the National Council on Teacher Retirement, National Association of State Retirement Administrators and AARP in urging the IRS to use the old federal withholding tables. In addition, NEA and its coalition allies are actively lobbying Congress and the administration to take action averting potential problems with the Making Work Pay credit and retiree pension recipients.

Imo, that lathe will only frustrate you. If it were me, I'd clean it up, make it operational and sell it and then go look for a more modern machine. With the weak economy, there's lots of deals to be had but there might be someone that is out looking for a collectors piece and will buy yours. I have no idea if a collector's market even exists but a modern machine has so much more to offer and will be much easier to operate and consume less time doing it. But if you decide to keep it, read up on lathe safety so you will at least be aware of the dangers. Even a small lathe can do major bodily damage. No loose clothing, no long sleeves, gloves or long hair. Learning how to run a lathe is a long time experience and some old timers will say they have forgotten more than a newbie will ever learn lol
It was free for a reason.
lathe stuff
I can't see who wrote this but someone mentioned that you would be better off w/a modern lathe...we'll, yeh..And more monetarily challenged too!..No fooling, the modern lathe would be mo-betta, but which one....I suggest you get the small lathe going and maybe even practice w/it on the nights when your not in your Basic Machining class..Once you have a clue about what the lathe will do and what you wanna do w/it {comes w/time on the lathe} you will be better equiped to make a informed decision...In a machining class you'll be surrounded w/people who will challenge and inform you..You'll probably be rubbing shoulders w/people who work in machine shops and ,just by assoication,will open new doors for you.Knowledge {like a dumb question} is cheap...dumb mistakes {unlike dumb questions} are expensive.
Someone said machining is addictive...yes it is..it's alot like having a bottomless toybox out in the garage..
G-luck, Randy
It is starting to sound like I would be better off without this thing, which is disappointing, but I am sure another one will come along at some point.
Thank you for all of the helpful information.
- Josh
Considering you don't have anything in it you should not be at all disappointed. Sure it will be limited as to what you can do but it will be far from useless and you can learn the basics plus you do have a valuable antique, not worth a large sum but not at all worthless either. This thing can truly be a learning experience and as long as you don't invest a lot of money in parts/tooling that would be specific to that model what you do spend will transfer over to that newer lathe that I am confident you are going to be looking for soon!
Whatever you decide don't trash that old machine as there definitly are people out there that would love to have it, just as we here like to work with old cars there is a fairly large group that is dedicated to old shop machinery.
Good forum for machine tools, nice guys, lots of knowledge..
There is a forum for antique machines and a Southbend specific forum too.
You might be able to find the gears for your lathe there too, or at least get an idea what they look like...
When I bought my 14x48 Graziano the folks there were very helpful in filling in some of the blanks.
Learning lathework is fun, even if the machine is a million years old...
I had a 1922 Lodge & Shipley 14 x 60 and was going to restore it, but lost interest when I got my 59 Sheldon and spent my time making chips instead of fixing machinery...
A while back a guy offered me a fairly large Leblond, ( all he said was it was WAY bigger than my 14x48 ),all in pieces, ready to restore...All I had to do was go pick it up, but I really don't need another 6000 pound jigsaw puzzle...
Ebay is a good place to pick up tooling, with a bunch of surplus machinery and tooling out there it sells for almost pennies on the dollar.
Later, mikey
my signature lines...not really directed at anyone in particular..
BE different....ACT normal.
No one is completely useless..They can always be used as a bad example
The countershaft plate and motor mount has the second set of gearing so you can just shift the belt from pulley to pulley to get different speeds, typically this is done by releasing the pressure on the belt by pulling a lever and then moving the belt on the countershaft to another pulley. Have a look at this forum page for pictures of other lathes, all lathes do the same thing so will see how other manufacturers build their machines.
I don't want to discurage you but what you have there is someones attempt to turn the lathe into a wood lathe, hence why the bull gear and countershaft plate is gone...seen it before. The amount of money spent trying to find parts (the shipping is what kills ya, its heavy!) and restoring the unit is not worth it.
However if all you intend to do is turn at one speed and one feed, then what you have will work...especially if you don't have the feed gearing stack. Having worked with the exact unit you have there I can tell you trying to accomplish work with such an old style lathe is an exercise in frustration, you will forever be working around its shortcomings.
I suggest you take a course at your local college and work with their modern machinery and get some experience, learning how not to lose fingers will be one of the more valuable lessons you will learn. They will have an old unit some where you can try out and you will see how much hassle it is to work with.
If you need to polish a shaft or just turn a diameter what you have will work just fine, many shops I worked in had an old lathe in the corner (just like what you have) for polishing since the abrasive is hard on the lathe ways of the good equipment.
Just be realistic about what to expect from what you have there, it needs a lot of work, it is missing most of the parts that make a lathe useful, the spindle won't have a large through hole so what you can chuck is limited, and you have no tooling to start with.
Take a course, once you do I think you will see what you have is largely a heavy chunk of iron.
I'm with 4 Jaw....not because he's a moderator but because I'm a 30 year machinist and have been there done that. The lathe I have now is a 15" Leblond Regal and really like to have one a bit bigger one but that's what I have. It was 6000.00 back when machines were bringing decent money (early 90's) and the same machine today might only bring 3000. Once the economy takes off again, and it will, machines will go up again. The Regal isn't a heavy duty machine but it's a good precision unit and does well and has been reliable. It does all I ask of it and more. I just hope it doesn't break down because it won't be cheap to fix lol

A lesson in Bert Hinkler
07 January 2013 , 3:16 PM by Sally Rope
Today marks the 80th Anniversary of the death of australian aviation pioneer Bert Hinkler. Have you heard of him? If you're in Bundaberg, you probably have, since he was from there...Bert Hinkler was the first person to fly solo from England to Australia in 1928....but died after crashing on another solo flight a few years later.
Many aviation experts believe that Bert Hinkler doesn't get the recognition that he deserves...
Someone who is a bit of an expert on all things Hinkler is Lex Rowland, President of Hinkler House Memorial Museum in Bundaberg...

What is the best but cheap material for constructing Fett armor, jet pack, helmet...
I'm looking at sintra and styrene sheet but is there a cheaper alternative? This is my first attempt but I want it to last so I'm not sure if I want to use cardstock.
Also, I'm in the Uk. I mention that 'cause you guys often use brand names when you refer to materials. Sintra for example is not available here in the Uk that I know of, and I had to do some digging to find out just what sintra was.
The other thing I need to know, How thick should the material be?
Thanks in advance.

Hello Everyone! New guy here. I am looking to make some custom mando armor. I have a bunch of ideas stirring up upstairs. The only problem I am having is figuring out how to do the helmet. I have been doing some research on the helmet like Rubies and Don Post Helmets. I know Rubies isn't that great and DP 95 was the best way to go but they aren't around anymore. Is there anyone that reproduces the similar DP fiberglass helms or have the schematics on making a helm? I know there is the cardboard way or just buying a helm and re-customizing it. I would really like to know if someone reproduces the DP style helms with fiberglass.
I'm going to start some rough sketches on the ideas I have and will post to get everyones opinions.
Thanks all

Q1: What is "Project of Planets"?
A1: "Project of Planets" is a sci-fi MMO, or "massively multiplayer online game" presented by Miracle Castle, featuring Earth-protection story lines, dynamic combat and inspiring teamwork and legionwork experience. The game takes place in about 250 years later when human warriors armed with mechbodies fight back the land of Earth from cosmos-organisms.
Q2: What are the basic attributes in the game?
A2: There are three basic attributes, namely Stamina(Assault), Mentality(Raider) and Handling(Commander) in the game. The successful equipment of mechbody, weapon and controller requires certain points in these attributes. Each player has 5 points each in these three attributes at the very beginning and 2 potential points from each levelup to distribute freely.
Q3: What are the basic states of the character?
A3: Every character in the game has three basic states, Energy Shield (ES) for shielding, Hit Point (HP) for hitting and Mental Point (MP) for gliding and skill using. HP starts to lose when ES is low or null. You will die when you lose all HP points. Gliding and skills are available when there is enough MP.
Q4: How can I move, glide, fire, shift to FPS Mode and use skills in the game?
A4: Use WASD for Forward, Left, Back and Right movement. Use Q and E for Turning Left and Turning Right. Press Space for glide and click mouse for fire. Press Tab to shift between normal mode and FPS Mode. Use skills by pressing corresponding 1,2,3,4, Ctrl+1 or F1~F8 correspondingly.
Q5: What classes can I play as?
A5: There are three classes of mechs for your choice, Assault , Raider and Commander. Each class has its strengths and weaknesses. Assault has higher HP points while its output damage of bullet is relatively small. Raider has lower HP points while its output damage of laser is quite big. Commander has moderate HP points and acts as buffer and debuffer in the team for its skills.
Q6: What are the attack types in the game?
A6: There are basically three types of attack in the game-Bullet, Laser and EM. These accord with the weapons of Assault, Raider and Commander. Most monsters' attack are Bullet, Laser or EM while some have Chemical attack.
Q7: What are the skills in the game?
A7: Skills are divided into weapon skills, controller skills and wisdom skills. All skills have range and cooling time. Weapon and controller skills are active while most wisdom skills are passive. You can activate the Wisdom Skill Tree when you reach level 10 and add points to the skills you want to get.
Q8: How to equip yourself with mechbody, armors and controllers?
A8: You shall equip your armors and controllers in safe areas. But for mechbody equipment, you can ONLY finish it at NPC <Mech Replacement> at Base Abergate and Base Liron.
Q9: How can I get my mechbody, weapon, armor and controller in the game?
A9: You may have some of them as quest reward items or get some from drops. Also you can purchase the gear under level 30 as well. For mechbody purchase, go visit <Mech Manager>. For weapon purchase, go visit <Weapon Merchant>. For armor go visit <Armor Merchant>. Contollers can be purchased at <Controller Merchant>. However, you need to get the gear of your class from battle drops once you reach level 30. All gear and ammo have level and mech class requirement to load.
Q10: What's durability and how to maintain it?
A10: Durability is the equipment's ability to perform its function under force. For example, mech's durability defines the ability to shield against attack. Weapon's durability defines the ability to fire accurately, etc. Durability declines after some fierce battles and you shall go to complete maintenance from time to time at <Maintenance Technician> at bases. You shall not delay your maintenance when you see the orange mech icon when equipment's durability is under 50%. Normal Maintenance would reduce Max Durability if Durability dives to under 30% while more expensive Special Maintenance would recover it. When an item's durability jumps to 0, it can't function at all and you can only get a new one.
Q11: How to get and load ammo in the game?
A11: Ammos are divided into three types of Bullet, Energy Cube and Capacitor for Bullet, Laser and EM Weapon respectively. They can always be purchased from <Quartermaster Admin> and the higher level the ammo is the bigger DPS it has. To load ammo, drag it to the small ammo slot beside weapon slot from Ammo Bin. Please make sure the ammo matches the weapon type and store enough ammo before going to battle.
Q12: How can I get to another map in the game?
A12: You can either move to another map by passing through conjunction light ring or visit NPC <Teleporter> in bases. The quickest way is to use transmitter like Base Abergate-B4, Base Liron-C6 etc for your destination map.
Q13: How can I enhance my equipment?
A13: You have four ways to enhance your equipment in POP game, Compose, Enhance, Plug-in and Sync. All procedures are only available at NPC <Enhancement Technician> at Base Abergate and Base Liron.
There are five qualities- white, green, blue, purple and orange for all equipment. Compose offers you chance to improve the quality of equipment (mechbody, weapon, armor, controller). You can either compose two same items of same quality to get a higher quality one with bonus like . Or you can have a Compose Device to replace the Aid Item to finish successful Compose. For instance, you need two white [Victory Defender] or one white [Victory Defender] and one White Compose Device to get a green [Victory Defender].
There are 10 enhancement levels in all for equipment. System Enhancement Alloy is for Mechbody and Weapon enhancement and System Enhancement Program is for Armor (Head, Leg Plate, etc) and Controller (Sensor, etc) enhancement. There are ''Primary" Alloy or Program for enhancement level1~3, "Medium" for 4~6 and "Advanced" for 7~9. The higher the enhancement level, the more value your equipment's basis attributes is.
Plug-in gives your mechbody and weapon some bonus. There are Crystal Slot and Chip Slot for expansion when you click on the mechbody or weapon while pressing Shift. You need to activate slot from top to bottom and insert the active slot with crystal or chip to complete Plug-in.
Sync makes your equipment gain extra value. However, after Sync the item is bound and unsellable.
Q14: How can I gain get Reputation Points?
A14: You will get some Exploit Item from drops which can be exchanged for Reputation Points at NPC <Reputation Admin> at Base Abergate and Base Liron. Also Battle Orders give you Reputation Points as well.
Q15: Where can I do PVP without getting PK value?
A15: If you kill a white-name player willfully, you get 1 PK Value and would be red name. Luckily, we have offered you PK Arena at Base Abergate, Base Liron and Cross River Plain where it's labelled in red . You can test your capability freely with other players and gain Justice Points after grand victory without the worry of being red-named. You can use Exemption Order to reduce 1 PK Value.
Q16: What's the requirement of Battlefields (scenarios) in the game?
A16: There are two Battlefields in the game. Each Battlefield has two class, On Normal and Difficult for Old Soldier. Ophy Airdrop Bin is open to players level 25 on Normal and level 30 on Difficult for Old Soldier. Impasse Passage requires level 50 on Normal and level 55 on Difficult for Old Soldier.

Wired Magazine's Incoherent Truths
But wait, the story doesn't stop there. First, there's the fact that air conditioning almost invariably runs off of electricity, and the increased electricity demand is a big source of the pressure to build more coal-fired power plants. A house can be heated by burning natural gas, and right there air conditioning becomes 1.8 times worse than heating, because natural gas emits only 55% of the carbon of coal, per unit of heat energy produced. And it gets even worse: Coal fired power plants are only 30% efficient at converting heat into electricity, on average, so there you get another factor of 3.3 in carbon emissions per unit of energy transferred between the house and its environment. Finally, figure in a typical electric line transmission loss of 7% and you get another factor 1.075. Put it all together with the energy efficiency of the air conditioner itself and air conditioning comes in at a whopping 2.19 times less efficient than heating. for a given amount of temperature difference between house and environment. That means that so far as carbon emissions go, heating a house to 70 degrees when the outside temperature is 40 degrees is like cooling the same house to 70 degrees when the outside temperature is 83.7 degrees.
And that's still not the end of the story. A house in need of air conditioning has other heat inputs besides the heat leaking in from outside, and all that extra heat needs to be gotten rid of as well. For example, heat is a waste-product of all energy use going on in the house. Four people produce 400W that needs to be gotten rid of, and then there's the heat from hot water, lighting, the TV, cooking and what have you — all the energy usage within the house, plus 100W of biological heat per person needs to be gotten rid of. On top of that, you've got direct radiative heating from the sun, both from the sunllight getting through windows and solar heating of the exterior surfaces of the house, some of which will leak in through the insulation. Energy must be expended to remove all this heat. In contrast, in the heating season waste heat is subtracted from the energy needed for home heating.
So, WIRED got the story egregiously wrong, and not just because they did the arithmetic wrong. In their rush to be cute, they didn't even make a half-baked attempt to do the arithmetic. But what if they had been right and air conditioning really were intrinsically more efficient than heating. Would that justify their conclusion that you can just "crank up the A/C?" without worry? No, of course not, because cranking up the A/C would still use additional energy and still lead to the emission of additional carbon. For the conclusion to be justified, it wouldn't be enough for A/C to be more efficient than heating; it would have to be so much more efficient that the incremental energy usage from cranking it up were trivial. WIRED didn't even try to make that case. If they had, they might have spotted their errors.
Is there any real conclusion that could have been drawn from more clear thinking about the heating vs. air conditioning issues danced around in the article? Yes, in fact. The conclusion is that it makes a lot of sense to build houses in places where the environment requires neither much heating nor much cooling. This is in fact why Los Angeles scores pretty well in carbon footprint per capita, despite all the driving (as noted recently in The Economist.). Another conclusion to be drawn from the carbon footprint of New England heating is that there are probably a lot of leaky homes up there heated by inefficient oil-fired furnaces. Fixing that situation represents a huge untapped virtual energy source.

Credit Market Liquidity Drying Up As Bond Prices Fall
One of the greatest risks an investor takes by investing in less-frequently traded asset classes is that when it comes time to sell their holdings, nobody will be there to buy them. That's what's been happening lately in credit markets, which are far from dangerously illiquid or esoteric but have been hamstrung by both more stringent bank regulations and reduced institutional appetite for holding corporate bonds and similar instruments on their books.
Katy Burne, Al Yoon and Kelly Nolan report in today's Wall Street Journal that the ongoing bond-market rout - which has caused sharp price declines for everything from municipal bonds to corporate debt to mortgage-backed securities - has left investors who are looking to sell struggling to find willing buyers:
Pressure is mounting on fund managers as investors have pulled near-record amounts of cash from the bond markets in recent weeks. Trading desks at Wall Street firms are increasingly worried about the demand for bonds, or liquidity, they can expect from investors, and they don't want assets that could stick them with losses if prices fall further. Many investors and banks close their books for the second quarter of 2013 at the end of the week.
Richard Prager, global head of trading and liquidity strategies at $3.9 trillion asset manager BlackRock Inc. (BLK), said the firm recently reduced its expectations of the dollar amount of the bonds it could trade by 25% compared with what it would expect is possible in more routine conditions. "Credit markets are not broken," he said, even though the gap between the price where investors will buy and where others will sell is getting wider. "We are still concerned about liquidity."
The story notes that credit markets still aren't anywhere near the deep freeze they were in during the throes of the financial crisis in 2008, but that dealers now stock only about one-quarter of the dollar amount of corporate bonds on their inventory shelves that they did before the crisis, while banks are nos subject to new regulations dating to 2010 that restrict the bets banks can with their own money, further curtailing trade volumes.

Continuing what seems to be a minor invasion from downunder....
Hi folks!
I've jumped onto this forum following a mate who has done some awesome paintups and I'm looking forward to taking a heap of photos to fully document the final piece(s).
I will be trawling through here looking at all the photos to make sure I'm shooting the right angles and details for the helmets. If anyone has a specific gallery please feel free to leave a link for me here...otherwise I'll slowly go through the galleries myself.
Thanks for the great site - its an awesome resource for the subject matter!

A more accurate way to put it would be that in the coming decades, new spending is almost entirely driven by health-care programs. But what's really driving the spending in those programs is the aging of the population, not the rise in health-care costs. Over at the Concord Coalition's blog, Joshua Gordon makes this point in an unusually clear way — by which I mean, of course, with graphs. . . .
But even at this higher estimate (for Medicare costs), the increase in spending is really coming from the increase in old people. As Gordon writes, "The total increase in Medicare costs from [health care] inflation is only 0.7 percent of GDP. Alternatively, growth due to aging accounts for 1.9 percent of GDP."

These guys finally shipped the handlebars, but guess what? They shipped the wrong set! These people are on drugs I ain't kidding. I called and spoke with Quincy last week and the excuses continue. I was promised they send the right set last Friday. Well, since now they decide to to take anymore phone calls, I've sent them numerous emails and not a friggin response. We're talking about an order dating back to July. Any possible way to take some legal action against them?
Thanks bro, I was thinking about that part. Now my problem is getting the damn bars without any discrepancies. I mean, since my first post about my order on July 12th, it's been such a drag that I wouldn't be surprised if the issues continue. I'll just have to cross my fingers and hope for the best. By the way, here's my first post:http://www.roadstarraider.com/index.php?topic=13917.240 pg. 17
