'Fiscal cliff' averted by House vote
Republicans had threatened throughout the day to halt the bill, approved 89 to 8 by the Senate early Tuesday, because of concerns that it didn't cut spending enough or take serious steps to dent the national debt. Their fury was fueled further by a new report from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office that the package would add $3.97 trillion to deficits over the next decade.
If Congress had not acted, tax rates would have jumped for all Americans and automatic spending cuts would have kicked in today. The House approved the bill 257 to 167; President Obama is expected to sign it into law shortly.
Republican Frank Guinta was the only member of the New Hampshire delegation to vote against the measure. Second District Rep. Charles Bass, also a Republican, voted for it.
Click here to view the roll call vote on H.R. 8
"This bill ultimately added $4 trillion to the debt and had no serious spending reductions or reforms," Guinta said. "I think this bill ultimately fell short."
Both Guinta and Bass lost their bids for re-election in November and will be leaving office later this week.
After Tuesday's Senate vote, New Hampshire Republican Kelly Ayotte said: "While the President was insistent on raising taxes, I voted to spare as many Americans as possible from getting hit by tax increases. Now it's time for the President and Congress to cut spending and come up with real reforms to get us out of our crippling $16 trillion debt."
After the vote, Obama said the "fiscal cliff" deal is just one step in a broader effort to strengthen the economy.
Speaking shortly after the vote, Obama said he hoped future deals would "not scare the heck out of folks quite as much." At the same time, he told Republicans that he expected them to approve an increase in the nation's borrowing authority without the brinksmanship that has marked other showdowns.
"While I will negotiate over many things, I will not have another debate with this Congress about whether or not they should pay the bills they have already racked up," he said.
The vote means spending cuts will be postponed two months, and Bush-era tax rates will prevail for all individuals making up to $250,000 and families making up to $300,000.
Taxpayers making more than that will pay higher taxes on capital gains and dividends. Individuals making more than $400,000 - $450,000 for families - will pay a top income tax rate of 39.6 percent, up from the current 35 percent.
The plan also ties the alternative minimum tax to inflation, a big relief for an estimated 30 million taxpayers who could have been hit with higher bills.
Other measures include an extension of jobless benefits for the long-term unemployed and avoiding a huge cut in Medicare payments to doctors for a year.
However, workers will see up to $2,000 more taken out of their paychecks annually with the expiration of a temporary payroll tax cut.
The call to vote in the House came after a day of furious closed-door lobbying - and arm-twisting. Vice President Joe Biden met for two hours with House Democrats. While he did not find overwhelming enthusiasm, Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., tweeted that the measure would get a "strong majority" from her party.
At the same time, Republicans met privately twice, for a total of nearly three hours. They heard opposition from House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., who has a strong following among conservatives. "There was a lot of discontent in that room," said Rep. Steven LaTourette, R-Ohio.
"This does nothing about getting the $16.4 trillion debt under control, said Rep. Steve Chabot, R-Ohio.
Republicans made a last-ditch effort to pass more spending cuts, offering to consider the same package of $328 billion in cuts that passed on a party-line vote Dec. 20, but could not muster enough support Tuesday.
"We've gone as far as we can go and I think people are ready to bring it to a conclusion," Republican Representative Jack Kingston of Georgia said. "We fought the fight."
Tuesday's vote was a reversal for House Republicans, who were in disarray despite winning deep spending cuts in earlier budget fights. But they saw their leverage slip away this time when they were unable to unite behind any alternative to Obama's proposal.
House Speaker John Boehner and other Republican House leaders stayed silent during the debate on the House floor, an unusual move for a major vote. Boehner backed the deal, but many of his top lieutenants voted against it. With most of his Republicans voting against the bill, he could face blowback when he asks them to re-elect him as House speaker on Thursday.
The deal shatters two decades of Republican anti-tax orthodoxy by raising rates on the wealthiest even as it makes cuts for everybody else permanent.
Lawmakers had struggled to find a way to head off across-the-board tax hikes and spending cuts worth $600 billion that began to take effect at midnight on Jan. 1, a legacy of earlier failed budget deals that is known as the fiscal cliff.
Strictly speaking, the United States went over the cliff in the first minutes of the New Year because Congress failed to act on time. But the bill passed on Tuesday will be backdated.

A 45 recoil is not that bad. In fact, I think it will probably be less sharp than a 40.
To me, a 9mm has a sharp feeling, but the 45 is more of a solid "thud". Instead of the gun muzzle moving too much, I feel like the gun just moves back more. Of course, I am used to shooting .45 thru metal 1911s.
I am 6'1", and I find that it is the length of the grip that makes a gun harder to conceal - not necessarily the length of the barrel. If I try to conceal my HK USP compact, I may as well just carry my fullsize P99 w/ the 4" barrel. The grips are the same length. When the gun is in a holster, it's usually the grip that sticks out on you that makes it visible.
I've never shot a compact in anything but a 9mm, though, so that's all I can add.

Building a better defense acquisition system
During this age of austerity, the need for change to the status quo is clear. Dollars spent on burdensome compliance requirements that provide little value are funds not spent on sustaining America's technological superiority, or preserving the readiness of our military.
Today's acquisition system can be daunting. Its array of rules focuses on compliance and eradicating the risk of malfeasance in contracting. But it also discourages some companies from selling to the government, and it erects barriers to innovation and investment by the companies we rely on to innovate and deliver equipment needed by our armed forces. The costs of developing and enforcing a "zero-defect" acquisitions apparatus are steep: increased compliance expenses, diminished innovation, and delayed delivery of equipment needed by front-line troops.
Of course, we understand the importance of oversight. Our industry has a strong ethical commitment to working closely with our government customer to deliver the most effective and safest product at a fair price.
However, the mindset that "getting tough" on industry somehow looks out for the taxpayer negates the fact that it is actually the taxpayer – and ultimately the warfighter – who pay the price for a burdensome acquisition system. It creates significant barriers to participation in defense acquisitions, especially for mid and small-tier suppliers. It raises costs and does not add commensurate value.
The Department of Defense's complex audit requirements are a case in point. They take much longer to complete than in the past, and lead to delays in contract awards and closeouts. While audits aren't the only reason for the long time it takes to award contracts, they contribute to delays ultimately felt by the warfighter. And industry feels the effect too. Uncertainty makes financing more difficult for smaller firms who need predictable revenue projections to support operations. The backlog in incurred cost audits and contract closeout impacts payment – delaying critical revenue firms need to sustain their businesses.
We're encouraged by the DOD's Better Buying Power 2.0 initiative, which acknowledges audit requirements are a major factor driving lengthy procurement cycles, and with them, cost growth. And we are heartened by the willingness of the Defense Contract Audit Agency to listen to industry's views and work to resolve issues. Clearing the audit backlog, reducing documentation reporting requirements, and focusing auditors' efforts on problematic aspects of contracts will help remove barriers to participation.
The issue of protecting company intellectual property rights is another concern in defense contracting. Companies invest considerable capital – human and dollars – to develop intellectual property. They do so because the investment is intended to return value to their shareholders and owners. However, current DOD practices threaten to undermine these investments and are another negative influence on the defense industrial base. While DOD's intention of reducing long-term costs and introducing as much competition as possible for contract awards is sound, current rules and policies could result in competitors reaping substantial rewards by having access to technical data they did not pay for or develop.
And these are only two examples. The fact is that defaulting to the most risk adverse regulatory environment creates a chilling effect on initiative and openness on both sides of the contractual relationship. And it drives some companies away.

New freshmen and transfer students are notified regarding the outcome of their financial aid application beginning in March. Continuing students will begin receiving award notifications during the middle of June. All notifications from the Financial Aid Office will be mailed to new students until they complete orientation at NMU. Once a student begins enrollment, all further correspondence from the Financial Aid Office will come through the student's NMU e-mail account. The Financial Aid Office assumes students will accept all financial aid offered, including student loans and work study awards, unless the student notifies the office to remove or adjust the offered aid prior to disbursement. Disbursement of financial aid will occur no earlier than ten days prior to the beginning of each semester.
The Financial Aid Office bases all initial award amounts on full-time enrollment. However, required enrollment levels for specific aid programs vary, and are dependent on the individual financial aid program regulations. For students who enroll less than full-time, some awards may be prorated or canceled at the time of disbursement. For more information on specific programs, please contact the Financial Aid Office.

'The Flyers broke a 2-2 tie when Danny Briere's centering pass was re-directed into the net off of Ville Leino's skate at 2:17 of the third period. Leino was coming to a stop in front of the goal and the puck caromed off the outside edge of his skate and past Ryan Miller. The play was reviewed and deemed to be a good goal by the officials. To that point, the Sabres were outshooting the Flyers 29-20 but had been held off the scoreboard since scoring two goals in the first 10 minutes of the game. The Flyers added two more goals in the period on their way to a 5-2 win.'

|ZETEC Performance (2000-2004) The place to chat about any 2.0L Zetec engine performance, tuning and exhaust related upgrades.
|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Looking to change wheel and tire size and speed rating but having trouble finding a way to remove the speed limiter for my 07
Around the 150whp is where the stock injectors are about done, they say.
But there are ways around that, higher fuel pressure. But that has drawbacks too and doesn't raise the bar much. But it's not like you're always making full power either.
Cams, exhaust and good suspension makes for a pretty fun car. And that's about as far as $1,000 goes.
|Paul P
|At what point do you have to go with bigger injectors? The stock 19lbs/hr are only good to support 130HP at the crank. I am sure that 160HP at the wheels requires more injector.
|Paul P
I does have a 3 angle on it. I've already tuned it with a WB O2. No other way would be acceptable. At the moment it runs pretty hard for what it is. Have 2 free tunes left from the shop I tuned it with so when I drop the cams and springs in it I'll get it tuned again. I have an SCT 3015 tuner for the car.
Thanks for the reply.
|awesome! you may be held up by the flow of the head a little but you should be able to hit the 160whp mark. maybe mill the head a little bit more if you have it off (an additional .010" should put you slap in 93/91 octane only territory) and it should be good to go. oh i forgot to mention anything about a 3 angle valve job. those tend to help out pretty good too. have fun with that nitrous. please be safe with it too, get a good tune, use a larger fuel jet than the nitrous jet, and absolutely must have a wideband air/fuel ratio gauge.
|Paul P
Ported the head myself. MAF readings during the first tune were indicating about 8-10% more airflow over stock. This was a noticeable seat of the pants improvement. It was milled as a std cleanup procedure only .010"-.015". Yes it will have the Crower springs and titanium retainers. Adjustable cam gears will dial in the cams too. As the last upgrade before the N2O kit.
I been doing this stuff for a while (25 years).
At 46 people do think I should be driving something else but hey these cars are a blast to drive and I don't care.
HA! lookie what i found. this is basically the same chart i was looking at in my ford racing book. according to THIS one the numbers were made on an engine dyno. which basically means this is how much power the car has at the crank, not at the wheels. subtract 15-25 hp from the numbers there to take into account power lost between the crank and wheels. 10-15whp for a manual 20-30whp for an automatic would be better.
65mm TB, ported IM, CFM UDP, MSD coil and wires wont add up to more than a combined 5whp tops. the coil pack is completely useless other than for looks and the other 3 will make more of a difference on throttle response. if you are shooting for the most WHP for money spent i would port the stock TB and IM and not buy the UDP kit at all. for the record the stock coil is good for well over 700whp. that goes for the wires as well.
the power you make will depend ALOT on what is done with your head. if it is a stock head that gets taken to a local machine shop then i wouldnt expect a whole lot since they probably wont do the best job in the world. its just the way it is, not alot of machine shops will spend the time to get the most flow out of a head unless they already know how to and since a focus head probably doesnt come to them very often, chances are that they wont. i dont know about your area but around here if you walk in with heads from a small block chevy or ford v8 you can get them done great any day of the week. same goes for pretty much any honda head. now if you walk in with a zetec head you definitely get a WTF? kind of look and are lucky if they even agree to mill it let alone port it.
its also important to know how much compression you will have. will you mill the head for more compression or leave it at stock compression? more compression = more power but also means you will HAVE TO run higher octane fuel.
will the head have larger valves than stock? will it have upgraded valve springs? with the amount of lift of the crower 2's it would be advisable.
SVT header will add 15whp PROVEN on open header, the 2.5 inch exhaust might hold that number back some however. the more you can open up the exhaust after the header the better off you will be. free flowing exhaust is best for higher rpm power which is where you will be making your power with those cams too. IF you can or if you have the option try and get your exhaust done in 3in. the 1/2in might cost perhaps 2-5 whp on the top but that is purely a guess.
the nearest i can figure by looking at an old ford racing book on how much power FR stuff is good for you might be looking at a total of 18whp and 10wtq from the head if it is done correctly or is a FRPP head or equivalent. maybe 15whp and 5wtq from the cams.
so in review 15whp header + 18whp head + 15whp cams + 5 from intake = around 53whp increase POSSIBLY. it could come out to more with extra compression and it might come out to less if your bottom end is completely worn out.
hope that helps. i still think that is ALOT of money to wrap up in 50whp when i can make twice that much of an increase from a $500 nitrous kit and still have my torque too. good luck and let us know how it turns out! dyno videos are always nice to watch.

Though I just started this blog very, very early this morning, I was told I need to "expand" my market and "reach out" to more people. Being me, I took right to it. I've always loved networking group gatherings: meeting new people, exchanging sweaty handshakes, all in the comfort of a room with a very weird mingling of scents. No doubt, having a contact or two in just about every field can be a wonderful addition to your repertoire.
So, since I can't meet you in person and shake your hand (HA!), and I like to make people happy, I'm sharing "expansion" and "reaching out" in my way: a list of websites for you — all in one spot.
Pinterest: I absolutely LOVE the idea of the online cork board. So does my husband…saves him from PILES of paper! www.pinterest.com/wellwithjenn
Instagram: Hello?! Facebook for pictures, right? Love it and its super ease of use. www.instagram.com/wellwithjenn
Facebook: Yep, I've got that, too. www.facebook.com/wellwithjenn
Remember: I was told that today. This morning. So when you visit me on Instagram, there are only a few pictures and followers. Your support and encouragement keep me motivated to keep on keeping on! I look forward to meeting you!
OH…and be sure to leave me a comment with some way to "meet" you, too!
Be well and make it a great day!

Extract of speech to Assembly of the Council of Europe, Strasbourg, 6 July 1989.
[The rise to power of Mikhail Gorbachev in the 1980s, and his policies of perestroika (reform) and Glasnost (openness) opened up new possibilities of co-operation between the European Community and the Soviet Union. These were further enhanced by the peaceful renunciation of Soviet domination over the countries of central and eastern Europe, symbolized by the fall of the Berlin Wall in November 1989. Already, some months before, Gorbachev had presented to the Council of Europe Assembly his vision of a 'Common European home' and 'a vast economic space between the Atlantic and the Urals where eastern and western parts would be strongly interlocked'. Although Gorbachev's successor, Boris Yeltsin, appeared to share his views and the European Union established good relations with Russia during his presidency, signing a partnership and cooperation agreement in 1994, and providing technical assistance worth more than €1.2 bn by the end of 1998, there was less coming together than had been hoped. Russia joined the Council of Europe in 1996, but there seems very little prospect of membership of the EU in the foreseeable future, if ever. An EU-Russia free trade area might be a more practicable objective in the medium term.]
For centuries Europe has been making an indispensable contribution to world politics, economy, culture and to the development of the entire civilization. Its world historic role is recognized and respected everywhere. Let us not forget, however, that the metastases of colonial slavery spread around the world from Europe. It was here that fascism came into being. It was here that the most destructive wars started.
At the same time Europe, which can take a legitimate pride in its accomplishments, is far from having settled its debts to mankind. It is something that still has to be done.
And it should be done by seeking to transform international relations in the spirit of humanism, equality and justice and by setting an example of democracy and social achievements in its own countries. The Helsinki process has already commenced this important work of world-wide significance.
Vienna and Stockholm brought it to fundamentally new frontiers. The documents adopted there are today's optimal expression of the political culture and moral traditions of European peoples. Now it is up to all of us, all the participants in the European process, to make the best possible use of the groundwork laid down through our common efforts. Our idea of a common European home serves the same purpose too.
It was born out of our realization of new realities, of our realization of the fact that the linear continuation of the path along which inter-European relations have developed until the last quarter of the twentieth century is no longer consonant with these realities. The idea is linked with our domestic, economic and political perestroika which called for new relations above all in that part of the world to which we, the Soviet Union, belong, and with which we have been tied most closely over the centuries.
We also realized that the colossal burden of armaments and the atmosphere of confrontation did not just obstruct Europe's normal development, but at the same time prevented our country -economically, politically and psychologically- from being integrated into the European process and had a deforming impact on our own development.
These were the motives which impelled us to decide to pursue much more vigorously our European policy which, incidentally, has always been important to us in and of itself. In our recent meetings with European leaders questions were raised about the architecture of our 'common home', on how it should be built and even on how it should be 'furnished'.
Our discussions on this subject with President François Mitterrand in Moscow and in Paris were fruitful and fairly significant in scope. Yet even today, I do not claim to carry a finished blueprint of that home in my pocket. I just wish to tell you what I believe to be most important. In actual fact, what we have in mind is a restructuring of the international order existing in Europe that would put the European common values in the forefront and make it possible to replace the traditional balance of forces with a balance of interests...
If security is the foundation of a common European home, then all-round co-operation is its bearing frame. What is symbolic about the new situation in Europe and throughout the world in recent years is an intensive inter-state dialogue, both bilateral and multilateral. The network of agreements, treaties and other accords has become considerably more extensive. Official consultations on various issues have become a rule.
For the first time contacts have been established between the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and the Warsaw Pact, between the European Community and the Council for Mutual Economic Assistance [CMEA], not to mention many political and public organizations in both parts of Europe.
We are pleased with the decision of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe to grant the Soviet Union the status of a special guest state. We are prepared to co-operate. But we think that we can go further than that.
We could accede to some of the international conventions of the Council of Europe that are open to other states - on the environment, culture, education and television broadcasting. We are prepared to co-operate, with the specialized agencies of the Council of Europe.
The Parliamentary Assembly, the Council of Europe and the European Parliament are situated in Strasbourg. Should our ties be expanded in the future and be put on a regular basis, we would open here, with the French Government's consent, of course, a Consulate General.
It goes without saying that interparliamentary ties have major significance for making the European process more dynamic. An important step has already been made: late last year a first meeting of the parliamentary heads of 35 countries was held in Warsaw.
We have duly appreciated the visit to the USSR of the delegation of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe headed by its President, Mr Björck. The delegation could, I hope, feel directly the potent and energetic pulse of the Soviet perestroika.
We regard as particularly important the recently initiated contacts with the European Parliament. Among other things, we took note of its resolutions on military-political issues which are seen by the Parliament as the core of the western European consensus in the area of security ...
As far as the economic content of the common European home is concerned, we regard as a realistic prospect - though not a close one- the emergence of a vast economic space from the Atlantic to the Urals where eastern and western parts would be strongly interlocked.
In this sense, the Soviet Union's transition to a more open economy is essential; and not only for ourselves, for a higher economic effectiveness and for meeting consumer demands.
Such a transition will increase East-West economic interdependence and, thus, will tell favourably on the entire spectrum of European relations.

Aquatic Nuisance Species Profiles
Giant Salvinia (aquatic nuisance plant)
Giant salvinia (Salvinia molesta) is also known as Kariba weed, African pyle, aquarium watermoss, koi kandy. This plant is one of the worlds most noxious aquatic weeds and is notorious for dominating slow moving or quiet freshwaters. Its rapid growth, vegetative reproduction and tolerance to environmental stress make it an aggressive, competitive species known to impact aquatic environments, water use and local economies.
Giant salvinia is native to South America and has been introduced to several countries around the world (including the US). Giant salvinia has been found in Georgia at four locations since 1999.

With the meet ending on Sunday, the winning pool in the Pick Six will be distributed to those with the most winners if nobody is able to correctly select all six.
Illustrative of the topsy-turvy afternoon Thursday was when Rafael Bejarano drove 7-1 shot Island Hop between horses to overtake pace-setter Sheza Maneater by a neck and end a seven-race losing streak when upsetting five rival fillies in the $50,576 allowance feature at one-mile over the track's Pro-Ride synthetic surface.
Sheza Maneater, with Joel Rosario in the irons, held on for second, three-quarters of a length ahead of Lemon Punch, ridden by Victor Espinoza.
Island Hop, who rallied from fourth for her victory, paid $17.80, $8.60 and $4.60. The prices on Sheza Maneater were $6.40 and $3.60. Lemon Punch paid $3.80 to show. She Floats, the 2-1 favorite, finished a non-threatening sixth.
It was only the second win in 18 career starts for Island Hop, trained by Julio Canani for owner and breeder Everest Stables. The winning purse of $29,400 boosted her career earnings to $87,270.
The Breeders' Cup will offer Ultra Pick Six wagering on both Friday and Saturday, with the sequence beginning with the third race on Friday and the fourth on Saturday.
First post for Friday's ladies day portion of the championship event is at 11:05 a.m.

Gore Bike Wear Xenon 2.0 Short Sleeve Jersey - Women's $119.95
No need to turn around before noon anymore.
Riding in the heat of summer requires a jersey that works with you while you ride. As your temperature rises during an afternoon criterium or an all-day road race, ventilation is key to staying comfortable and pushing through to clinch the victory. The Gore Bike Wear Women's Xenon 2.0 short-sleeve- jersey puts ventilation where it is needed, using a high-functioning material mix for spring and summer riding.
The Xenon 2.0 sits at the top of the Gore Bike Wear women's road line. This jersey is made with Schoeller's signature Coldblack fabric that reflects sunlight to effectively manage heat buildup while also protecting you from harmful UV rays The Xenon line uses ultrasonic seam technology to eliminate the use of thread for binding the fabric, effectively welding the jersey together.The tight, flat seams mean no friction against your skin where traditional seams would rub.
An ergonomically shaped collar stays comfortable against your neck when the jersey is fully zipped. Strategically placed polyester-elastane mesh on the top of the arm, underarm, and back help you stay cool by allowing air to move through it, evaporating perspiration. The full-length zipper also makes cooling off easier on hot days. An underflap runs the length of the zipper to keep it from catching in your undergarments and irritating your skin as you ride. Zip ports on the top and bottom protect your neck and favorite shorts from being abraded by the zipper.
Three back pockets provide ample storage for nutrition and spare tubes. They're slightly tapered on the sides for easy access, so reaching around your back for a bar no longer feels like a game of chicken against yourself. A single zip pocket on the back keeps keys, credit card, and ID safe and secure.
Decorative reflective print on the sides of the jersey adds safety and flair. A reflective logo and piping on back also keep you visible during predawn and dusk rides, and gives you 360 degrees of reflectivity.
The Gore Bike Wear Xenon 2.0 short-sleeve- jersey comes in Black/white, White/Black, Pool Blue/White, Fuchsia/white, and Citrus Green/White. It is available in X-Small to XX-Large.
- Synthetic fabrics
- Arm, underarm, and back mesh panels

Great bike jersey for hot days
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: L
This jersey fits nicely, doesn't ride up in back, and has vents to let in air on the back and armpit area. It is great for hot days and a cool breeze blows through the venting. I would definitely buy again.
Best Fit Jersey
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Finally, a jersey that is made for women with breasts. I usually have to go up a size or two to fit the chest area, and then the rest of the jersey is too big. I purchased the black/white version and it looks just like the photo. The venting in the back is fantastic. Perfect for our 100 mile ride in 90 degree weather. The material in the front of this jersey is much thicker than that back, making for a smooth front. If you have boobs, this is the jersey for you. :)
- Familiarity: I returned this product before using it
- Fit: Runs large
looser fit than expected. I own a few other Gore apparel in a medium which aren't as loose fitting (am 5'4" 117 lbs). the material is too thin for my taste, and the yellow is not as bright and neon as I had expected from the picture. it is more of a mustard yellow.
Gore Bike Wear Xenon 2.0
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
This is my all-time favorite bike jersey. It's made to fit a female figure, is slimming and the material is ultra thin but durable and breathable. The pocket storage includes a zipped pouch for valuables too. I bought TWO. One for me and one for my cycling sister. She loves it too. Arlene
So comfortable!
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Just got the jersey on Friday and tried it out on a short trip Saturday. Sunny day, low 70s, low humidity.
Fit - snug but not tight. Doesn't over-compress your body, but still fits smoothly.
Stretches well, good length both front and back. It has some sort of sticky stuff on the hem that keeps it in place. Nice that there is a zipper on one of the back pockets to keep stuff from bouncing out.
When I first put it on, I thought the fabric felt a bit weird and wouldn't breathe well. Not true. It breathes well and keeps me comfortable. It washed beautifully. Looks brand new.
I want to get more of these for sure! Definitely my favorite jersey.
the best!
The best short-sleeved bike jersey I have owned, including others from Gore, Assos, Louis Garneau etc. So comfortable you hardly know you are wearing it. Lightweight, breathes well. Functional rear pockets. Well made. Highly functional, but good looking too.
Have you tried Gore's ALP-2.0 Jersey yet? Of course it's more mountain inspired if fit, but it, too, is very comfortable and has excellent ventilation...so breezy. The only fault I found is the back, which is totally mesh, already snagged from my hydration pack; but if you don't carry a pack, this top is worth a try especially if you catch it on sale.
I'm going to give this jersey and shorts a try, too, this summer.
Happy Trails!
Recently acquired the Sleeveless version of this jersey...love it; will try to get this one, too. You are right about the Xenon...the shorts rock, too!

Seven University of St. Thomas students working on undergraduate research under the guidance of Dr. Rosie Rosell, professor of biology, and Dr. Elmer Ledesma, assistant professor of chemistry, were awarded first prize for their fruit fly research and presentation at the Entomological Society of America Annual Meeting held in Austin, Texas from Nov. 9 – 14. Gina Duong, Zoe Knippa, Heather Skeen-Esterheld, Cecilia Dao, Luke Hebert, Katie Fisher and Maria Ton presented their research focused on determining the lethal concentration of toluene on fruit flies and the morphological effects of toluene exposure on fly offspring.
"This research project has been in progress for about 5 years however, this group of enterprising students have moved the project forward by leaps and bounds this year," Rosell said. "Gina Duong has been an organizing dynamo for the group. The other students on the project have donated their time, energy and excellent laboratory skills performing weekly experiments to generate publishable data for the project. Their diligence and persistence have paid off with the winning of the President's prize competition in undergraduate research at a national scientific meeting. However, this group has not stopped since their win and their plan is to bring the project to a point at which we can publish their work in a peer-reviewed scientific journal. I am very proud of these students, they are self-motivated, hard-working, dedicated and fun to work with."
Toluene is a volatile organic compound found in crude oil, paint and as a by-product of petroleum refining. According to the Environmental Protection Agency and Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment, toluene causes irregular fetal development along with neurological and hepatic defects in humans.
To study the effects on fruit flies, the students developed a continuous-flow system that delivers and exposes known concentrations of toluene vapor to test populations. To study the effects of toluene on fruit fly offspring, surviving toluene-exposed females were mated with unexposed males. Larval offspring were collected and, using light and scanning electron microscopy, morphological changes in larvae from both exposed and unexposed females were examined.
Zoe Knippa, a senior biology major graduating this December, has been working on the project for nearly four years and is impressed by how far the research has come. "We had such a basic and rudimentary system when we began," Knippa said. "We were trying to expose flies to toluene, and when we first started we were using Starbucks bottles. My sense of accomplishment comes from knowing we were able to determine the LC50 (the toluene concentration at which 50% of the test population die) because that has been our goal for so long."
Knippa, a Health Occupations Students of America and Tri Beta member, is pursuing a career in healthcare and will attend a physician assistant program where she will focus in pediatrics. She credits a liberal arts education for allowing her to combine the theology and philosophy she studied with science, forcing her to think critically on the ethics of medicine and healthcare.
"What I learned during the fruit fly research, thinking critically and scientific writing, is going to be invaluable as I move forward," Knippa said.
The student's research beat out 42 poster presentations from undergraduate students from across the nation. The group will present their research at UST's annual Research Symposium.
2013 marks the 20th anniversary of UST's annual Research Symposium promoting undergraduate and graduate research. The Research Symposium will be held April 10-12, and is open to the public.

I am "wireless" myself (no landline), and that cell phone is always with me when I leave the house and go somewhere, whether it's to work, the market, or to a contra dance in Lenox, MA which is an hour's drive from where I live. It is also in my saddle bag when I go bicycling (and yes I have had to use it!). That's the real purpose of a cell phone, IMO: so you always have a way to contact someone in the event of an emergency.

Mom-to-be Kim Kardashian says she's past the difficult early stages of her pregnancy.
"At the beginning I was having a hard time," she told Access Hollywood at the E! 2013 Upfront in New York City on Monday.
"I think I've gotten past every weird, awkward phase and stage and I feel really good," Kim, who is expecting her first baby with Kanye West, continued.
PHOTOS: See Kim Kardashian's Baby Bump
Getting her first little nudge from her baby - Kim and Kanye have not revealed the sex of their baby - took the reality star's pregnancy to a new level.
"There's a whole new thing that happens within you when you feel the baby start to kick. So, I've really started to embrace it and love it," she told Access.
Kim also appears to be pretty happy now that she has settled her divorce with ex Kris Humphries, which was finalized last week after a drawn out legal battle.

"I'm just glad that we are both able to move on," she said of her divorce proceedings.
Adding, "And that we... can just move on with our lives."

|47 Coupe
1 pce windows
I've done my 47 Chevy coupe with one piece side windows. The problem is the vent windows angle toward the center of the car( in other words the front edge is narrower than the rear. I removed all the windows from the door and mocked up a front and rear guide for the window. Then by stretching a line from the two guides you can see the place where you have to add metal. I bent a piece 90 degrees long enough to cover the area needed. Weld this in and finish the metalwork. One thing to be sure of is to check that the window will move up and down in the guides without binding.
Removing vent windows
I have a '48 Chevy 5 window coupe, and I want to remove the vent windows and have one piece of glass for the door windows. I found a kit from Nu-Relics that electrifies the windows while removing the vents, but they also say that there needs to be a modification to the door because the vent windows were offset 1/2". Has anybody performed this operation that can tell me what is involved? They have a suggestion on how to do it, but I'd like someone with first hand knowledge of the process that can explain it to me. Thanks.

Posted by Dean Davison on April 21, 2011
A theme that frequently shows up in survey data and during interviews with purchasing executives is that customers care more about how tech vendors sell than what they sell. Tech customers now put more emphasis on the behavior and skill of your sales reps than on your products or prices (see "Do Your Value Propositions 'Go To Eleven'?"). What does this change mean for your CMI team?
Since customers are changing, how are your competitors selling differently? What intelligence do reps need from battle cards to anticipate and respond to new tactics from competitors?
As you frame your CMI team's analysis within the customer's problem, you see competitors from a different point of view – you first determine the merits in the competitor's approach, then contrast your company's solution, and, finally, build out a point-counterpoint discussion that will help reps anticipate topics that are likely to come up during customer conversations.
As CMI leaders, many of you tell me you are frustrated that the company measures your value by the number of clicks or downloads on sales portal, but that you don't have a better way to show the volume or quality of work that you produce.
The only relevant gauge for battle cards is whether they advance the selling goals of sales reps.
The challenge is that sales reps have unique conversations with many stakeholders across a number of accounts. Your CMI team, obviously, cannot build battle cards for individual customer conversations. To break this impasse, Forrester will not provide a simple formula to quantify the value of your battle cards, but we will outline a methodology allowing your CMI team to define and measure how battle cards line up with selling situations.
Posted by Dean Davison on April 12, 2011
During the past few months, our sales enablement team has researched and written about battle cards. We've spoken with more than 40 companies, including CMI leaders and sales professionals, to understand how sales reps use battle cards, what role a battle card plays in fueling customer conversations, and what CMI organizations can do to build more value into their battle cards.
During our interviews, sales reps told us that they need battle cards for effective selling today. Reps spend their time identifying a customer's problems and building a shared vision to solve them. Competitors also engage in a similar journey, and sales reps told us that battle cards help them to:
Anticipate traps. Sales reps need to be aware of ideas that competitors will suggest to the customer early in the sales cycle, but that the customer won't bring up until the final stages of a purchase. One rep told us of a situation: "A competitor's rep told the customer that we have a lot of hidden costs – that we don't include them in our early proposals, but that we will 'change our tune' later." How do you prepare your sales reps for competitive traps?

Discussing Obama and DOMA, Limbaugh litters monologue with anti-LGBT innuendo
From the transcript of Limbaugh's June 16 Morning Update, as posted [1] on his website [subscription required]:
A filing by the Obama Justice Department last week surprised hardcore supporters. Despite candidate Obama promising the gay community that he would work to overturn the Defense Of Marriage Act (DOMA), his lawyers urged dismissal of the first same-sex-marriage case to reach federal courts.
The plaintiffs are two guys who tied the knot when same-sex marriages were legal in California. They claim DOMA violates the Constitution's "full faith and credit" clause, the "due process" clause, equal protection, their free speech rights and right to privacy.
Obama's legal beavers attacked. They cited Catalano v. Catalano, involving a man who married his niece in Italy and sought to have the marriage recognized in Connecticut. The courts told him to stuff it. They cited the case of an Indiana marriage of an underage woman that New Jersey courts red-lighted. The third cite involved the marriage of first cousins in New Mexico, which got blown out by Arizona courts.
The Lesbian, Gay, Bi-sexers, and Transgenders are fuming that Obama is not dismantling DOMA -- and are livid that his beavers would cite cases involving incest and people marrying children. They're also furious at Obama's limp action on the military's "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy.
Look, boys and girls (and undecided): right now Obama's getting busy... finishing off the economy and destroying heath care. So for the moment you have to bend over and grab the ankles. But don't doubt him. Your turn is coming. (So to speak.) He's a flaming lib, and he's on your side of the aisle. I promise! You just have to be patient; you're not yet a priority. How does it feel?

The Schottenheimer effect
I know that at times we've won big games... however, more often than not, I can't help shaking the feeling I've seen this situation over and over again.... a coaching staff doing enough to look good during most games but we just wet the bed when we shouldn't.
Re: The Schottenheimer effect
Also known as the Schembechler Effect.
Hey, guess who Harbs' dad worked for?
Re: The Schottenheimer effect
PoP HARBs didn't mind going to all those Rose Bowl games with Bo.
Most coaches will kill for Bo's resume with 10 Rose Bowl trips even though he was 5-12 in bowl games and while he never won the national title, He won the Big 10 title 10 times. He is 9th best ever in bowl appearances.
Ten titles and made 10 Rose Bowl appearances. His 96–16–3 record during the 1970s was the best of any Division I coach. Schembechler led the Wolverines to a total of 17 bowl games, going 5–12 in 21 years, placing him ninth in all-time bowl appearances. He was voted national coach of the year in 1969 by both the American Football Coaches Association and the Football Writers Association of America.

Simple question for everyone: Where are the best locations to go for a TEFL beginner?
I have a degree and I'm currently completing the 140 hour TEFL certificate.
So without a full CELTA qualification and without any teaching experience, where am I best to start in terms of a TEFL position?
By that I mean both in terms of what is actually available to me and also what is best for a beginner teacher.
I've read that China and Korea are the obvious starting points. Any other places that people would recommend for a first outing?

There is a scene in the Broadway hit Spamalot in which a peasant jumps up from a cart of corpses and vigorously complains that he's "not dead yet". It's a humorous side-story to the main theme of the search for the Holy Grail. One might be accused of thinking of COBOL in the same way, as a side-story to the current major themes of mobile and web development, or perhaps as a historical footnote to the current narrative. IBM's recent announcement of major upgrades to its COBOL compiler technology provides a good reason to pause in our headlong pursuit of the latest technology to reflect on the value of COBOL applications in enterprise software portfolios.
While mobile and web technologies often garner everyone's attention, the reality is that most organizations that have been around for more than 30 years still run their core business processes using systems that were written in COBOL. Anything that makes these apps easier to evolve and extend is a very good thing. The reality is that evolution and extension of these apps is critical to business success. In order for the flashy-new-social-networking-enabled mobile and web Systems of Engagement to succeed, the workhorse Systems of Record and Systems of Operation are going to have to evolve apace. This means that they must take advantage of the latest architectures as well as being refactored and modularized to align with a service delivery model.

Jets' first round pick, S Jamal Adams, has already impressed his new teammates, according to NJ.com's Connor Hughes.
The Jets were exuberant when Adams fell to their No. 6 slot in the 2017 NFL Draft as he was the player the wanted most. Participating at OTAs and mandatory minicamp, Adams has shown his teammates, like CB Morris Claiborne, why the front office was so high on him.
"The things he has done so far?" Claiborne said. "He's unbelievable...He's been out here playing lights out. Picking up the defense, checking to different things, knowing what he wants to check to. He's having fun doing it, too. His spirit is awesome. He's having fun doing what he knows how to do, and that's football."

The Jets' new linebackers coach, Hall of Famer Kevin Greene, is looking to instill more aggression and power in his players, especially LB Lorenzo Mauldin.
The 25-year-old has shown spurts of potential in two seasons with the Jets, but his 2.5 sacks last season isn't the production they had expected. Greene intends to change that, and he told NJ.com's Darryl Slater why he uses this specific approach to his coaching.
"Everybody at this level has skill, correct?" Greene said. "They'rea ll athletic, and agility and dexterity and all that stuff. Well, what separates people initially is their physical level of play. That's always our first step, is we have to play more physical than whoever is in front of us, because we're all athletic."

President Donald Trump plans to nominate Jets' owner Woody Johnson as the US Ambassador to the United Kingdom, the team confirmed on Thursday.
In the case that Johnson is nominated and confirmed by the US Senate, he would hand over his duties as Chairman and CEO to his brother, Christopher Johnson, who will directly oversee the team's day-to-day operations.
Jets DE Sheldon Richardson says head coach Todd Bowles has been more strict than in the past, per Darryl Slater of NJ.com.
Bowles has been left with a young team following the Jets' roster purge that including veterans like C Nick Mangold and LB David Harris. With his job possibly in jeopardy, he has been putting emphasis on working harder.
"It's completely different from the last couple years," Richardson said at minicamp. "A lot more strict now. We weren't loose [in the past], but it's a lot more strict now. It's even more enforced than what it has been in the past."

Jets LB Lorenzo Mauldin turned himself in to authorities Wednesday morning in Manhattan for his alleged role in a nightclub attack that took place on April 2, according to TMZ Sports.
Mauldin, who is also being sued in civil court, was not arrested or charged after the incident. The Jets said earlier this month that they're aware of the lawsuit but had no further comment.
An NFL spokesman told ESPN's Rich Cimini that the league is looking into the incident.

Former Jets LB David Harris has agreed to a two-year deal with the New England Patriots worth $6.75 million, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.
The Patriots offered Harris more than the Jets offered him earlier this month prior to his release, reports Mike Florio of NBC Sports.
Harris visited with the Patriots on Wednesday after speaking with head coach Bill Belichick (and coaches from five other teams) earlier this week, notes Florio.

The Jets were one of the worst pass-rushing teams in the NFL last year, finishing the season wtih just 27 sacks, and only 5.5 of them coming from the team's outside linebackers.
Todd Bowles brought in former NFL linebacker Kevin Greene as New York's new linebackers coach, and Greene has already expressed optimism towards his young group of players.
"The sky's the limit for all my kids," Greene told Daniel Popper of the Daily News. "I'm teaching my kids technique and fundamentals not based on athletic ability and skill. It's based on physicality. It's based on drive and desire and want-to and being a student of the game. ... All my kids can really be as good they want to be."

The Jets have signed former Bears WR Marquess Wilson, per ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Wilson only played in three games last season as he was on the IR with a broken foot. He is a big target, standing at 6-foot-4, 205 pounds, and will add some competition before training camp begins.
In four seasons with the Bears, Wilson played in 31 games, hauling in 56 receptions for 777 yards and 3 touchdowns.
The Jets new running backs coach, Stump Mitchell, believes RB Bilal Powell has Pro Bowl ability, according to ESPN's Rich Cimini.
Mitchell has been impressed with Powell since joining the Jets this season, and he thinks if he didn't have to share time with another back, he has would attain Pro Bowl status.
"Bilal is a Pro Bowl back if he was playing by himself, make no doubt about that," Mitchell said at minicamp.

Former Jets LB Larry Grantham dies at age 78: Larry Grantham, a member of the Jets' only Super Bowl team in 1969, died on Tuesday at the age of 78. Apart from being a Super Bowl Champion, Grantham has been enshrined in the Jets Ring of Honor as well.
Elsewhere in New York sports the Mets dropped a slugfest to the Dodgers, the Yankees lose their top prospect to injury, and the NBA draft is just two days away.
The Jets' roster purge and commitment to begin rebuilding this season earned them a "C+" offseason grade, per ESPN's Rich Cimini.
As the offseason is normally used to rebuild rosters, the Jets tore theirs down thanks to move made by owner Woody Johnson. Among the roster cuts were LB David Harris and WR Eric Decker, which saved the Jets almost $14 million in payroll alone. C Nick Mangold and CB Darrelle Revis were also part of the 11 veterans the Jets go rid of this offseason.
Cimini said the grade should be worse considering the Jets now have one of the worst rosters in the NFL, but looking at the big picture, the Jets are acknowledging their rebuild and will have $80 million to work with next offseason.

The Jets announced former LB Larry Grantham, a Ring of Honor member and Super Bowl III champion, has died at age 78.
Grantham opted to join the AFL's New York Titans despite being drafted in the NFL by the Baltimore Colts in 1960. The Titans became the Jets in 1963, and Grantham would stay with them until his retirement in 1972.
He was the starting linebacker for the Jets' Super Bowl III championship team where he called all the plays on defense. Grantham played in 175 career games, and was a five-time AFL All-Star and a five-time all-NFL selection.

Former Jets wide receiver Eric Decker agreed to a contract with the Tennessee Titans, the team announced Sunday.
Decker, 30, played 33 games with the Jets over the past three seasons, totaling 163 catches, 2,183 receiving yards and 19 touchdowns.
Decker had appeared healthy entering organized team activities in May after he missed 13 games last season due to rotator cuff and hip injuries.
New York released him last Monday when they were unable to find a trading partner. The Jets will face a $1.5 million cap hit this year and next after releasing Decker.

RB Matt Forte says the Jets aren't tanking the season, despite the fact that they've cut the majority of their veteran players this offseason.
"It's a good thing we don't operate off of what the fans think and what everybody on the outside thinks," Forte said, according to The Record. "What we think as a team, that's what's going to happen. And none of us on the team think that we're going to tank. So all I have to say about that is: Bring it."
The Jets, who went 5-11 last season, have cut Brandon Marshall, Eric Decker, David Harris, Darrelle Revis, Nick Mangold, Nick Folk, and Breno Giacomini since the season ended. They also declined their option on Ryan Clady.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. - It's really quite an accomplishment for the Jets to come off a disappointing and perhaps disastrous 5-11 season and find a way to get worse. But they did it. They purged their roster of most of their veterans and replaced them with untested, unknown players. They're playing the long game, even though their short term looks rather bleak.
Who knows if they're "tanking" with their eyes on a top draft pick next season? Maybe they're just acknowledging the need to experience short-term pain for long-term gain. Whatever it is, there isn't a lot of hope for the 2017 season. Their eyes are on 2018, or perhaps beyond.

Later in their career, it's easy to go jump into a good situation. It's a free market, so by all means, do your thing. But me personally, I like to make history, not be a part of it."

Ainsworth, Aragon and Trujillo Named Capital One Academic All-District
May 30, 2013
Men's All-District Recipients | Women's All-District Recipient
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Three University of New Mexico track and field student-athletes were named to the 2013 Capital One Academic All-District Track/Cross Country District VII Teams, as selected by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA).
Men's student-athletes Gabe Aragon and Thomas Trujillo joined women's student-athlete Imogen Ainsworth in earning their first career All-District honors, which increases UNM's total number of All-District recipients in the 2012-13 school year to an unprecedented 15 student-athletes.
Aragon, a mid-distance runner from Albuquerque, N.M., finished his senior year at New Mexico with a 3.97 GPA, where he majored in business administration. While running for the Lobos, Aragon was part of a distance medley relay (DMR) team that earned First Team All-American status from the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) in 2011.
He was also selected to a handful of All-Mountain West Indoor teams, including in 2011 in the DMR, in 2012 in the 800-meter run and in 2013 in the 4x400 meter relay.
Aragon was a three-time Academic All-Conference recipient from 2010-12, and was named a Mountain West Scholar-Athlete from 2010-11.
Trujillo, a Rio Rancho, N.M., product, also just completed his senior year at UNM, posting a 4.07 GPA as he majored in business administration. As a sprinter for the Lobos, he was selected to two All-Mountain West Outdoor Team, once in 2010 (4x400 meter relay) and again in 2011 (4x100 meter relay).
He is also part of two 4x100 meter relay teams that rank second and third all-time in school history.
Additionally, he was recognized for his work in the classroom, earning Academic All-Mountain West and MW Scholar Athlete plaudits three times apiece from 2009-11.
Ainsworth just wrapped up her second year as a graduate student at UNM, where she registered a 4.11 while working toward a master degree in geography.
As a distance runner for the Lobos, the native of London, England, has earned her stripes in both cross country and track. She was named to the All-Mountain West Indoor Track & Field Team in 2012, the All-Mountain West Second Team for cross country in 2011 and 2012, and the USTFCCCA All-Mountain Region team for cross country in 2011.
She is also ranked second all-time at New Mexico in the 3000 steeplechase and is part of the women's DMR team that ranks second all-time.
Academically, she was selected to the Academic All-Conference team in 2011 and 2012, as well as receiving the Mountain West Scholar-Athlete award in 2012.
The trio's selections mark the second straight year that the UNM track and cross country squads have earned Academic All-District. Last year, Sarah Waldron was selected to the Academic All-District 7 second team.
Aragon, Trujillo and Ainsworth are also the 13th, 14th, and 15th All-District selections this year for UNM as a whole, extending the school record. (The previous best was 11 back in 2009-10.) Their selections give UNM 44 selections over the last four years, also a four-year record.
UNM has also produced 13 Academic All-Americans in that time, and these three—along with Michaela Bezdickova of women's tennis, Mary Rachel Hostetter of women's skiing and Christian Otto of men's skiing—could all earn that honor as well.
