Hello everyone, I am look for advice and information about towing capacity of a 60's f100 or f200.I am wanting to build a classic ford for towing a custom built 18' camping trailer that is built on a standard car hauler trailer weighing in at about 6000 lbs ( also includes 425 lb motorcycle ) I will be traveling the country for a few years and pulling my house with me.I plan on upgrading suspension, brakes, transmission and engine. Basically creating a modern highway rig that looks like something you drug out of the field.I would like to get at least 10 miles to the gallon and I think I'm going to put some kind of manual 5 speed in it.I have not picked out the truck yet. Still pondering long or short bed and 66-72Thanks for your helpHappy trucking
before selecting a 60s truck.. be sure to have a friend rock the steering wheel back and forth while you observe the steering box.. some have tremendous movement that can be fixed with tightening the crossmember to side rail bolt.. others have metal fatigue...please also check the frame areas directly under the back of the cab to front of bed area.. there is a LOT of rain water damage to that area.. its a shame.. i have the perfect truck for your adventure. but i don't know what my sister is going to do with it.. its a 70 F250 camper special long bed.. 360, granny gear 4 speed.. dana 60 / 4.56 gears. no power brakes no power steering.. this was my moms truck .. she passed on last month. i just don't know whats going to happen to it.. its up in far north west washington. already has a welded on class III receiver set up for towing monster air streams.. i would probably bolt 300 or 400 pounds of steel bar stock under the front of the frame rail behind the bumper. as last time i towed something with a excessive tongue weight. it got a little crazy.. but it was not my 32 foot trailer and i could not shift the contents to adjust the tongue weight and they had packed the arms on the load distributing hitch.. mom did a foam brush rustolem paint job on it.. so its not pretty.. if you are going to build a motor.. i have a cam grind in mind.. an H230 grind from american cam. i don't recall what the specs are.. you will really want a truck with front disc brakes.. since you are going to be using it for the long term.. please take your time with the rear drum brakes.. replace the wheel cylinders.. replace the spring and self adjusting kits.. turn or replace the drums.. replace the locking tab washer if its a bent ear type.. see the silicone sealer on the ends of the springs.. stops them from vibrating apart and falling under the brake shoes on wash board roads.. i have had to take a part too many that had this issue.. you will also want to remove the radiator.. with some 1/4" hardware cloth.. stretch it across the front and fold the ends over the mounting flanges. WHY??it protects the front of the radiator from rocks tossed by vehicles in front of you.. they go right thru the grill.. or under the bumper and nail the radiator tubes. why... i have been there.. 4:30 on the friday of a 3 day week end with a hole in the radiator and 900 miles in one direction and 300 in the other to go.. if your truck comes with a 4.11 or 4.56 gear set. there are 3.73 gear sets available. and you can also convert to a 30.5 to 34" tall rear tire.. in 16" only 12.5 x16.5 tires and larger are available in 16.5 inch sizing currently.. and any tire older than about 4 years old should not be trusted with any kind of load or a big trailer.. you might want to try several different sizes of rear tires.. or have 2 spares.. of a different size.. so if you get into the mountains.. you can switch back to the shorter tires for mountain driving. gives you better hill climbing .. and go back to the tall ones for long highways.. as for fuel economy.. you will want a pair of gauges.. a manifold vacuum gauge.. but also at least a narrow band air fuel ratio display... with a matching oxygen sensor screwed into the downpipes after the manifolds.. there are several circuits in carbs.. idle circuits where the fuel is controlled by the idle mixture screw..the idle transition circuit that is controlled by the idle feed restriction..the main circuit that is controlled by the main jet...during mid to high speed cruise. the engine runs on both the idle transition circuit and the main circuit.. during low speed cruise.. below about 1900 rpms.. the engine runs on just the idle transition circuit.. so if its not tuned perfectly.. you will get horrible fuel economy.. or have a flat spot that you have to use more throttle to get past.. you will also want to type hydroboost into the search terms above right.. then select source internet media.. so you search all the magazines.. there are 4 or 5 articles about using hydro boost power brake systems.. sometimes robbed from things like astro vans on various cars and trucks.. far superior power brakes.. since you are going to swap to disc brakes.. if you pick up reman calipers.. and you have the option of plastic pistons over the stainless steel versions. go plastic.. why.. because they work better going downhills.. the brake pads get hot.. the infrared reflects off the back of the caliper pistons and boils the fluid in the caliper.. leaving you without brakes.. the phenolic resin pistons don't transfer the heat anywhere near as quickly.. so the fluid never boils.. when it gets that hot.. it burns the outside of the piston off.. but the truck still stops.. lastly.. put in a kill switch.. a well hidden version.. i have met more than one ford and other truck owner that has had low lifes steal their truck as they are easy to cut into the harness and start.. hint.. forged ring bolts thru the floor on either side of the clutch pedal.. push the clutch pedal down with hand and slip lock thru .. let them try to drive it with the clutch stuck to the floor.. so many options.. if you go short bed.. plan on adding weight under the nose.. if you are really trick.. you will mount a pair of class 3 receiver tubes up there to mount it into.. so you can use a floor jack to slip it out easily.. or going to a steel plate front bumper.. like is found on tow trucks.. hint.. mount class III receiver tubes on the bottom of the front frame rails.. so you can mount or unmount the tow truck steel front bumper.. additional hint.. there are quiet type trailer hitches that have rubber bushings.
If you want a 5 speed look for a donor 351 Windsor motor out of a 80's or 90's pickup. The motor will bolt in with Ford mounts from a late 70's pickup. Might have to get creative with the transmission mount. Rob the front suspension from a late 70's F250 including the power steering and column. The column will have to be shortened about 2-3". The 70's rear end is about 4" wider than the 66 so stick with that in a F250. Ford changed the rear frame in 1967 to march the front track. A gear ratio that places you in the center of the engine power curve at 60mph in direct drive will derive the optimum mileage.A platform hitch with a load equalizing hitch and trailer brake control are a must. Set the brake control so the trailer braking force exceeds the truck so a light foot pressure will bring a fishtailing trailer under controlShortbeds in that vintage are rare.

I've only been able to hold the 75B and P-01. No rentals in my area to shoot. Both feel perfect and I'm very interested in purchasing--even w/out shooting.
I'm hearing pro and con about the 75B DA/SA trigger. Can anyone compare the SA mode w/ Beretta 92FS or M&P 9?
Is there a substantial difference in the 75B SA model vs. the 75B in SA mode?
Is the P-01 trigger better than the 75B? According to CZ's web site, enhancements were made in the P-01.
Ideally I'd get the 75B SS--I really like the feel, look, and reputation for quality. I don't carry but will still consider the P-01 since it just feels great in my hand. I'm not averse to getting work done on the trigger by a smith (don't trust myself to do it), but prefer my toys to remain stock.
Appreciate your thoughts. --Werps

The car will just die for no apparent reason and decides it does not want to start again until...it decides to. It does not matter whether its hot or cold. You could drive it all day or you wont even make it out of the driveway.It has many and I say many new parts and 130,xxx on the clock. When it is running, it runs mint. There is no real rhythm to its chaos. I have checked and rechecked, tune-up, new coils (less than 3,xxx miles ago), new starter and battery. I am at wits end and don't know what to think!?! or where to start

Don't waste money buying this product!

The toothpaste is reasonably priced for its size. With Xylitol (for the sweet taste) and its cool minty taste, the toothpaste seems like an ideal choice for those who want to avoid any sodium fluoride or sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) in their toothpaste while whitening their teeth. The toothpaste uses two agents for whitening, papain and hydrated silica. Papain does not help much in whitening. Hydrated silica is used as abrasive and basically used to "shrub" off the top layer of the tooth in order to achieve its whitening effect. It's like using sandpaper to clean your teeth. It damages your enamels and makes it very sensitive. That's why most of the 1 star review is about sensitive tooth! In addition, the toothpaste contains potasium sorbate, a preservative known to cause allergic reaction and sodium coco sulfate. Sodium coco sulfate has the exact same chemical structure as SLS. So much for being SLS free! Personal experience - I have sensitive teeth and it seems worse. I will not use this again. Check out my page for more reviews!
Great toothpaste

This is a great toothpaste. Giving it only 4 stars as I wish it has more peppermint (but that has nothing to do the the performance of this product as a toothpaste). Update on April 2013 - Changed my mind. This is a crappy toothpaste. After using this for sometime, my teeth became sensitive! Not again.

Tastes good but some ingredients questionable
Posted by KiwiKent on May 09, 2015 | Verified Purchase
Daughters absolutely loved this toothpaste but on closer look the ingredients don't stack up. Our mouth and gums are VERY vascular. Some medications & herbal remedies, like sublingual nitroglycerin & arnica, are taken and administered under the tongue. So what you put in your mouth should be as pure as possible. Ingredients glycerine, sorbitol, papain, and sodium coco-sulphate have question marks over them. Glycerin is thought to leave a coating on the teeth, possibly contributing to de-mineralization and preventing re-mineralization (the layering of minerals back into the enamel structure). Sodium lauryl sulfate and coco-sulfate are basically the same thing chemically. Coco-sulfate tends to be a bit gentler because the ingredients (usually coconut or palm kernel oils) are less purified. Sorbitol is an artificial sweetener. If this review helped click YES. Click on the blue text above (kiwikent) for more reviews.

toothpaste ok, helped gums but not tooth enamel (actually was quite bad for my tooth enamel). should not be used for breastfeeding or during pregnancy as it has menthol and tea tree oil. I wish the package had a warning somewhere.

I love the fact is doesn't contain any chemicals, nor SLS. I use it now that I am pregnant and I avoid all nasty chemicals. It is so hard to find a whitening toothpaste that actually works and is not harmful. The amount of product is huge as well, making it a very good deal for the price.

The Canisius College baseball team got back in the win column with a 5-2 win over St. Bonaventure University at Fred Handler Park on Tuesday afternoon. The Golden Griffins improve to 32-11.
Three Canisius pitchers combined to give up one unearned run in the game. Redshirt freshman Iannick Remillard started and allowed one earned run on six hits, walked none and struck out four. Junior Mike Tolsma (3-0) allowed an unearned run in his four innings while senior Jason Rubenstein picked up his first save of the season by throwing a scoreless ninth inning.
Canisius scored the five runs in five separate innings. After St. Bonaventure (16-21) scored a run in the bottom of the first, the Griffs tied the game in the top of the second with a two-out rally. Senior Chris Gruarin was hit by a pitch, stole second and scored on an RBI single from junior Ronnie Bernick. The Griffs would score in four straight innings, taking the lead in the third inning with another two-out rally. Freshman Anthony Massicci singled to center and moved to second on a wild pitch. He scored on an RBI single from junior Jimmy Luppens.
The Griffs had a two-out rally for the third consecutive inning with junior Jose Torralba drawing a walk and moving to second after sophomore Mike Booth was hit by a pitch. Junior Ryan Coppinger had a two-out RBI single to put the Griffs up 3-1. Luppens led off the fifth with a single and scored on a two-out, RBI double from sophomore Jesse Puscheck. After the Bonnies made it 4-2 with a run in the bottom of the sixth, the Griffs scored their fifth two-out run of the day in the eighth. Booth drew a four-pitch, leadoff walk, moved to second on a sacrifice bunt from Coppinger and scored on a pinch-hit, two-out, RBI single from junior Jesse Kelso.
St. Bonaventure got the tying run to the plate in the ninth inning, but Rubenstein recorded two strikeouts and then got a grounder to second to close out the win.
The top three hitters in the Canisius order – Coppinger, Massicci and Luppens – each had two hits on the day as eight Golden Griffins combined for the 11 hits. Luppens reached base in all five plate appearances, also recording two walks and a hit by pitch.
Canisius stays in Western New York on Wednesday, with a non-conference game at the University at Buffalo. First pitch at Amherst Audubon Field is set for 3 p.m.
Notes: Canisius has now won 11 of the last 15 meetings against St. Bonaventure… Massicci extended his hitting streak to 14 games… The Griffs improved to 22-7 in road games in 2013… Canisius was 7-for-13 with two outs in the game… Coppinger extended his hitting streak to six games (8-for-20), matching his career high… Remillard has a 3.86 ERA in his three starts with two walks and seven strikeouts… Tolsma has not allowed a run in 14.1 innings… Canisius batters saw 163 pitches while Canisius pitchers threw 130 pitches. The Griffs offense had five walks and four HBP while the Canisius pitchers allowed only one walk.

Frigid temperatures help pond to beckon skaters back
By DALE VINCENT
New Hampshire Union Leader | January 24. 2014 10:32PM
Marcus Laube, right, and Chip Foley, both of the Concord High School team, shovel the ice following their game during opening day of the Black Ice Hockey Tournament at White Park in Concord. Teams from the Northeast and Canada will be competing throughout the weekend. (DAVID LANE/UNION LEADER)
The ice was still being groomed for free public skating. Starting today, for the first time in years, Dorrs Pond will "officially" be open for skating, said city parks chief Don Pinard.
On weekends, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., there will be staff on hand and a fire in the "skate house" stove to warm skaters taking a break.
With the temperature expected to be in the 20s today, he's sure the skating will be ideal for opening day. Especially if a few snowflakes drift down in the afternoon.
That's not to say Dorrs Pond hasn't been in use for skating without official city maintenance.
They weren't skipping Friday. "It's midterms. We just wanted to play more hockey," said Brendan O'Neil.
The four teens chose not to waste the day and decided to head to Stevens Pond, next to Interstate 93, where they've skated before, said Jon Mathieu. But Stevens Pond isn't groomed and O'Neil took one more look at the smooth, unmarked surface of Dorrs Pond. "I've never seen it like that," he said.
Nordic skiing trails have been groomed at Derryfield Country Club and they also open officially today. They are on the south side of the clubhouse, the opposite side from the popular sledding hill.While cross country skiers have cut their own trails in the past, Pinard said: "If we groom the trails, we can keep them off the green."
There are other possible cross country trail locations he's looking at in the city, including recreation trails. "But we have to depend on Mother Nature," he said.
He'd like to bring back neighborhood skating rinks. He's starting at Parkside Avenue, and Sheridan-Emmett Park is his next target. "We plow it out, make bankings and flood them," he said. They used to be common. "I'd like to bring that back," he said.

Muddying the peer-reviewed literature
For reference, the amplification is related to the sensitivity of the moist adiabat to increasing surface temperatures (air parcels saturated in water vapour move up because of convection where the water vapour condenses and releases heat in a predictable way). The data analysis in this paper mainly concerned the trends over land, thus a key assumption for this study appears to rest solely on a personal communication from an economics professor purporting to be the results from the GISS coupled climate model. (For people who don't know, the GISS model is the one I help develop). This is doubly odd – first that this assumption is not properly cited (how is anyone supposed to be able to check?), and secondly, the personal communication is from someone completely unconnected with the model in question. Indeed, even McKitrick emailed me to say that he thought that the referencing was inappropriate and that the authors had apologized and agreed to correct it.
So where did this analysis come from? The data actually came from a specific set of model output that I had placed online as part of the supplemental data to Schmidt (2009) which was, in part, a critique on some earlier work by McKitrick and Michaels (2007). This dataset included trends in the model-derived synthetic MSU-LT diagnostics and surface temperatures over one specific time period and for a small subset of model grid-boxes that coincided with grid-boxes in the CRUTEM data product. However, this is decidedly not a 'land-only' analysis (since many met stations are on islands or areas that are in the middle of the ocean in the model), nor is it commensurate with the diagnostic used in the Klotzbach et al paper (which was based on the relationships over time of the land-only averages in both products, properly weighted for area etc.).
It was easy for me to do the correct calculations using the same source data that I used in putting together the Schmidt (2009) SI. First I calculated the land-only, ocean-only and global mean temperatures and MSU-LT values for 5 ensemble members, then I looked at the trends in each of these timeseries and calculated the ratios. Interestingly, there was a significant difference between the three ratios. In the global mean, the ratio was 1.25 as expected and completely in line with the results from other models. Over the oceans where most tropical moist convection occurs, the amplification in the model is greater – about a factor of 1.4. However, over land, where there is not very much moist convection, which is not dominated by the tropics and where one expects surface trends to be greater than for the oceans, there was no amplification at all!
The land-only 'amplification' factor was actually close to 0.95 (+/-0.07, 95% uncertainty in an individual simulation arising from fitting a linear trend), implying that you should be expecting that land surface temperatures to rise (slightly) faster than the satellite values. Obviously, this is very different to what Klotzbach et al initially assumed, and leaves one of the hypotheses of the Klotzbach paper somewhat devoid of empirical support. If it had been incorporated into their Figures 1 and 2 (where they use the 1.2 number to plot the 'expected' result) it would (at minimum) have left a somewhat different impression.
For reference, if you plot the equivalent quantities in the model that were in their figures, you'd get this:
(for 5 different simulations). Note that the 'expected amplification' line is not actually what you would expect in any one realisation, nor the real world. The differences on a year to year basis are quite large. Obviously, I don't know what this would be like in different models, but absent that information, an expectation that land-only trend ratios should go like the global ratios can't be supported.
Since I thought this was very likely an inadvertent mistake, I let Phil Klotzbach know about this immediately (in mid-August) and he and his co-authors quickly redid their analysis (within a week) and claimed that it was not a big deal (though their reply also made some statements that I thought unwarranted). Additionally, I provided them with the raw output from the model so that they could check my calculations. I therefore anticipated that the paper would be corrected at the proof stage since I didn't expect the authors to want to put something incorrect into the literature. After a few clarifying emails, I heard nothing more.

1. Sunset is one of the best times to photograph "Nubble" Light, and especially after a storm has cleared, resulting in big splashes on the rocks. The cormorant, flying above, is a common bird along the New England seacoast.
2. A little dusting of snow and puffy clouds made this winter afternoon scene a must-capture.
3. During the holiday season, the "Nubble" (actual name "Cape Neddick Light"), sports a lighted outline of electric bulbs. This shot was taken on a 10-degree morning, and it is not often that one sees a dawn sky this colorful at this spot. While flawed by the severely underexposed rocks, I posted it because the main attention is drawn to the lighthouse and the beautiful sky.
4. Another sunset shot, but not the typical view. Round, moss-covered rocks offer a sharp contrast to the lighter and more jagged rocks of the cliff, as the last rays of the setting sun illuminate the lighthouse and adjacent buildings. This picture was taken in the early spring.
I use a circular polarizer on days like this. It tends to make the colors more vivid at the time of capture.
All were shot with a Nikon D80 with a Nikkor 18-200mm AF VR lens. I used Manual program and spot focusing.

2010 was the year plasma fought back. The arrival of 3D and plasma's demonstrable superiority at showing it suddenly saw the elder statesman of the flat TV game elbowing its upstart LCD rival out of the commercial spotlight for the first time in ages.
Given that it was Panasonic's 3D TVs in particular that drove this plasma resurrection, it's fair to say we're pretty pumped at the arrival on our test benches of Panasonic's first 2011 3D plasma TV, the 50in TX-P50GT30.
As dedicated followers of TV model numbers (!) will doubtless realise, the P50GT30 sits squarely in the middle of Panasonic's 2011 3D plasma range, replacing last year's well-received and top-selling GT20 series. This means it won't offer the nth degree of picture performance you might expect with the upcoming flagship VT30 series, with its extra, high-contrast filter. But the GT30 series certainly does benefit from numerous other improvements to Panasonic's core plasma technology (now dubbed NeoPlasma).
We'll get into these improvements later, but first we have a minor miracle to report: namely that Panasonic has actually wrapped the P50GT30 in a stylish body! We've been harping on for years now about the seemingly willful drabness of Panasonic's TVs, so it's massively pleasing to find the P50GT30 looking slim, sporting a fetching metallic finish for front and back, and even adding a bit of pizzazz in the form of a silver metallic trim round the inner and outer edges of the bezel, and a gentle blend from near-black into grey for the central third of the TV's bottom edge. Good grief. Where will it all end? Polkadots and leather?
Turning our attentions to the P50GT30's connections, our spirits are further boosted by the wide array of options Panasonic has placed at your disposal. Four HDMIs, three USBs, a LAN port, a Freesat HD LNB input alongside the more expected Freeview HD input, a D-Sub PC port, an SD card slot... Really, the set covers all the bases and more that you could reasonably expect. Especially as it's a mid-range TV, not a flagship model.
The USBs have triple functionality moreover, delivering Wi-Fi via a (sadly not included) dongle; recording the HD tuners to powered USB HDDs; and, of course, playing back most of the video, photo and music formats that matter. The SD slot offers an alternative means of playing photos, from the growing number of SD-based digital cameras out there.
The LAN port, meanwhile, delivers access to files stored on a networked DLNA PC, as well as providing a pipeline to Panasonic's new Viera Connect service. This applies a more overtly smartphone sensibility to last year's Viera Cast system, complete with an app store and the facility to organise to suit yourself the apps you choose to download.

My Personal 92FS has been to see Ernest Langdon @ LTT & it's DA pull is sweet & smooth, Not blocky like it was before I sent it to Him..
I have the D spring in it for self defence purposes, I have a lighter Competition Spring that He sent me as well but I've never installed, Didn't see a need as mine is so smooth..
The D hammer spring does make a big difference in DA & SA pull BTW..
I wish I could tell you what LTT did to mine to make it smooth, But It's hard to tell, He did fit all the parts & polished key areas within the trigger mechanism, Trigger pivot, Trigger bar, Hammer, Sear etc, I opted to go with my factory trigger without trigger stop because I planned on using it in Stock Pistol Class at the range..I now wish I had the speed bump trigger with less overtravel..
It could be that the hammer stirrip is rubbing inside the spring, Did you oil the spring? You can also smooth out any burs on the stirrip with a piece of 600 grit silica carbide sandpaper..
Good Luck!!

Arsène Wenger believes Yossi Benayoun provides Arsenal with balance on the left side of midfield.
Benayoun started his fifth Premier League game of the season against Manchester City on Sunday, impressing out wide in Arsenal's 1-0 win at Emirates Stadium.
The Israeli international has been used in the same position against Tottenham and Liverpool in recent months and Wenger believes the versatile midfielder's experience is a vital commodity in the bigger games.
"First of all he knows the job in this [wide] position," he told Arsenal Player. "He is highly focused in the big games, that is a massive part, because you cannot switch off.
"So we have a good balance in the team with him and a good focus. And of course he has quality. We have to say that in the games he has started he did extremely well and the team did extremely well as well. That is never a coincidence."
Benayoun has been restricted to 20 appearances this season thanks to the consistent displays of Mikel Arteta and Tomas Rosicky at the heart of midfield, and Wenger admits he has not yet decided about the future of the on-loan midfielder.
"No, not yet [I have not made a decision]," said the Frenchman. "That will happen at the end of the season. We have to look at the situation in a global way because we have many players out on loan so we need to deal with these situations."
Watch the full interview with the boss on Arsenal Player now.

Michele Bachmann is not afraid to stand up to Barack Obama or any other liberal who attacks the conservative principles we share. Michele will do everything in her power to fight back against the liberal left-- repeal Obamacare and lower taxes for everyone -- but she needs your support to do so.
The reality is that her outspokenness comes at a price and the Democrats are already hatching plans to defeat her in 2012. Liberals are furious that they suffered such an embarrassing rebuke of their extreme agenda.
They are blaming leaders of the Tea Party movement for their crushing defeat and have once again placed Michele at the top of their attack list.
Click here to stop the liberal attack machines! Stand together with Michele Bachmann and Tea Party activists across the country to help protect the constitutional conservative values. Help defend Michele Bachmann today!

I've always thought that bakelite magazines looked really cool. I wanted one in 7.62x39, but I refuse to pay $70 per mag. So, I made my own.
Johnny 5.56: "Fake-lite" Faux Bakelite 7.62x39 magazine
SOON-We already lost the war. You are the resistance.
we need more cow bell!.....er i mean orange!
If you notice bakelite mags contain more than one color in them. You might try spraying red and orange paint simultaneously in a random pattern to create that dual color effect. Or you could spray a base color and let it dry then overlay it with a highlight color followed by rolling crumpeled tin foil over it to create that two tone effect that is common on these mags. Otherwise I think you are onto something here. Good job.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|painted jester
In my shop I did keep a log dated foreach day and hrs. and every time I run into something unforeseen ( hidden body or frame surprises) its added and I itemize and the customer signs the log with the add ons and price quotes and when I run into something I call them and they come in I show what I found and get an ok and he signs again the Log! There are no surprises to my customers! I also take pics of everything I find and Of my repairs! The customer gets copies of everything as I progress! But you always get the one guy who planes big and in the end tries to get you to settle for less because his planes were bigger then the budget ended up being or the windfall he was expecting fell through!
These customers are far and in between I have been really lucky LOL I had just this one in 35 years of running and owning my own business and it was in my last 2 years of down sizing and retiring, right at the time this recession hit and this guy was hit hard by the recession and the stock market crash and was trying to get me to settle for less! I locked down the car put a lean on it and went to court and it was arbitrated and I had to settle for a little less!!! But that's how the cookie crumbles! If I kept the car I would have had to auction it and recoup my Money and anything it brought in over what was owed me would have gone to the original owner on the lean. So rather then take a chance at an auction I settled for a few thousand less! but I still made money!
Gas Monkey Garage and Fast & loud are a comedy act to me , They are dangerous, untrained, hacks, and the shows are funny to my wife and I LOL, those 2 shows should be shown in every high school auto class as an example on what not to do LOL!!!! I cant see how no one has been killed or seriously hurt or burned yet or shot for trespassing or climbing over someones private fence! The show with the Model A and the green gasser were a couple of the funniest!! Pouring gas down the carb throat while cranking it over and the guy caught himself on fire LOL and then he threw the burning gas container ROTFLMAO Ridiculous LOL I saw the same thing on Jessy James show LOL They also state things about the cars that are absolutely not true !!!!! Like the model A Glass being made in different dimensions and installed in the cars on the assembly line that way because the cars measurements were way off so Fast & louds glass they ordered wouldn't fit!!! And their glass came in cut to big so they ordered new glass Why didn't they take it to a glass shop and have it cut down to size!!!! And they busted out the old glass with a hammer instead of removing them with the hardware (they said it was faster), But they still would have to remove the hardware to install the new glass let alone clean up the broken glass all over the shop and the old glass would have been good for patterns and measurements! And the Green Ford Gasser Never made it down the track It broke down LOL ETC,ETC,ETC, LOL
Those reality shows if real and not staged are the worst examples of humanity and show how stupid people are and stupid people watching those stupid shows think they themselves aren't stupid when they actually are and actually think normal people going through life act like the stars of these reality shows!!!!! And believe they can build good cars!
So the outcome is that these reality shows help dumb down America and make us look dumb to the rest of the world LOL
|Russell Mitchell gained notoriety in the custom bike TV star days. Hes a british guy, builds some real bare knuckled stuff. There was a TV Show on SPEED where he'd take some off the shelf dork and instruct the guy in how to build a bike. It seems like the poor yutz that thinks this is easy had to: Build/Modify a tank, wire the bike, 'lace' the spoked wheels, assemble the bike and make whatever custom doodads were necessary. He also had to meet the deadlines for paint or powdercoat etc. At the end of the week, the bike had to fire and move under its own power AND Exile Cycles (Russell's shop) judged the guy on fit and finish and design execution. Show didn't last long. I mentioned it to a friend from college that sells ads and marketing services. His response was interesting "Its too real. People who watch these are daydreaming of what they could or would do, but they have no interest in the reality of it. Too much reality reminds them that they're too lazy to learn, and they won't watch. Its an escape for the guy whos an accountant and always dreamed of being George Barris. Theres gotta be a happy ending and its got to seem vaguely plausible to the average house dad; same with survival shows, whole lotta guys going 'I COULD DO THAT!' when they cant walk a mile."

I'd like to see, as you suggested, something like, the labor, $100K, Parts $97K MIsc 23K...total build price $220K...and I wouldn't care how much Chip Foose, or Tim Strange got...keep that private...it would just be more real and not get a whole bunch of people all hot and bothered about starting a build and have it ending up someones else's project when they run out of skill or money.
I'm sure that TV exposure would explode that number...I can only imagine...I remember being asked on a daily basis come spring time for free paint material.
Ray, I would like that too. I can understand that not every sponsor would like their level of support/investment known, but seeing a few bottom lines along the way would be good. If they told you an engine total, a paint job total, then maybe an estimate of what the total build was worth, I'm sure that would raise the appreciation level of the average viewer, and keep things real for the builders.
I'm not sure anything will keep people from trying to get stuff for free. I think the higher you get in the industry, the more people you have asking for something. TV exposure probably explodes that number.
|69 widetrack
That brings me to the sponsors of these shows, how would it hurt them if on the show it was mentioned that APD or whoever sponsored $15,000 in parts or the engine donated by whoever cost 20K to build. I don't know but, I would appreciate the supplier that donated their product and the value of their product...hell I'd even like to see a disclaimer at the end of the show stating that the supplier will determine who they donate too, so please don't ask.
I think it would give more credibility to the show...for me it would be more real.
I know that when Counting Cars first came on the scene, they came on this forum and asked if anyone on here would like to sell their cars on the show...do any other people affiliated with this television, build a car, reality BS (the way it is today) read forums like this. If they do, they need to look at the whole picture and get real themselves.
|69 widetrack
People who don't build for a living, or build their own cars, wont ever realise how long some "little thing" can take to accomplish properly. And if it's not accomplished perfectly they'll be the first ones to point out a flaw.
I only build my own cars, and wouldn't want to build for anyone else. It's nice when somebody notices some personalized change I've made, and even more so when the guy who notices is a respected builder. But when some nimrod points out something on my car, and tries to tell me how he'd do it differently, it's tough to bite my tongue and not ask, "How many cars have you built?"
Troy Trepanier was interviewed by Hot Rod mag a few months ago. They did a retrospective of some of his hallmark cars, all the way back to the PINK chevelle. He did one of these 'pro touring' builds for TV Host Joe Rogan. Huge rear wheels, car looks like a hot wheels car or something. Anyway, Rogan is NOT a car guy, he just wanted a new toy. In print, Trepanier says (paraphrasing) "If you're not a car guy, and you don't have several high level cars that you've bankrolled already, I won't take the job - we build cars for car guys." I suppose when Poteet is your patron, you're financially allowed to say that.
One of my best friends is a custom bike builder. He builds "rider quality" bikes. They look nice, but they're made to RIDE. They're comfortable, pretty mild paint, not too loud usually and they're not a slave to todays trend. If a guy wants a 350mm rear tire, he wont do it. Its not that he cant, but he likes doing more traditional bikes. He said that the biker boom 15 years ago or so was great for business, but hes glad he didnt take the pile of money he made and build a huge shop and lease tons of equipment like some guys did, cuz he'd never get his money back out of it. "I figured it'd last the better part of 10years, then the TV types would move on to something else." Now he doesn't do much customer work. He builds bikes that he likes and sells em. No customer coming in and bothering him while hes working. But he's paid his dues and can afford to do that.

I realize that these shows are entertainment, however, I have also seen what they do to the enthusiast that doesn't know that they don't know, they pick up a few catch phrases like flash times, blocking, shrinking stretching, hammer, dolly, butt welding...and try and talk the talk...but couldn't walk the walk.
I had a customer that i was building a car for...he was a loyal watcher of all these shows (I should have known, he had an autographed picture of Chip Foose on his desk at his place of work). After watching one of these shows, he came storming into the shop and demanding to know what I did in all the hours that he had paid me for and that there was going to be no more payments....you get the drift....I let him rant until he made one comment..."I've built a bunch of cars and I've never...". I stopped him there, I explained to him that he had never built anything...his wallet was what gave him the ability to pay the builder.
I do keep a log, it showed every hour and what was done...I finished the job, I've been asked to do more work for this gentleman, I am always conveniently booked.
Your so right, I think Chip and his gang build good cars, I think Search and Restore probably build good cars...I would like to see one show say, we have 2,500 hours into this build and at an average shop the cost of labor would be...$140,000...the parts bill would be...X amount. It would give the public, the enthusiast with a fat wallet a much better idea of how fat his wallet really needs to be, because he can't do the work himself.
Now on the other side of the coin, as painted jester said, there are the really good customers, the guys that do understand and know what it takes to do it right. I have one of those customers right now. I am doing a build that will probably take 2 years...working with him it seems like a holiday compared to building a car for the Saturday morning Car-toon watcher that thinks he's getting an education.
Jester, you need to give them a copy of the whole RO every time they add something. Give them a "report" showing what it started at, what they have paid and what is due, there will be no surprises at the end. I tried something that worked great, a "time card" right on the car so when the guy walked in to check on the progress he could see the hours he will be billed. Collecting right then is the best way, when they pick up the car it's only a small bill as it was paid for throughout the project.
I love you how you look at the TV shows as a businessman, you sure see it differently than the average viewer! "Why can't you finish my car in three days like they do on tv instead of taking so long and charging me so much?" , double
|painted jester
I watch the Chip Foose show "Overhaulin" its Ok but being in the business for so many years with my own shop and doing restoration and race building and customs, I have the problem of counting workers and figuring man hrs they actually put into the car LOL And I Grumble under my breath SH *T some are hitting over a hundred grand LOL. 2 weeks, or 14 8 hr days 15 people at 70 dollars an hr. (reasonable rate) that's 1680 hrs or 117,600 dollars if they charged I'm not even counting parts or material or farming out work (but they are donated.) if it takes only a week that's still over 50 thousand and probably as much in parts and materialand they say on the show they work well into the night! So add in overtime LOL The normal citizen that doesn't look at these shows like I do probably gets more enjoyment out of them!! LOL
On car warriors 72 hrs 8 men on one team and all new top line parts and materiel right there for the pickings brand new, the cars aren't done very well, with my trained eyes I spot the flaws and yell at my wife "DID YOU SEE THAT" LOL Any way 72 hrs 8 men (and women) same labor rate I'm adding in my head LOL while watching the show that's $40,320.oo add parts like super charged big block , trans, rear end drum to drum, interior, complete sound system tires, rims, ETC ETC and your getting close to $60,000.oo or well over !!
The last restoration I did (that started as just a paint job and rust repair) was a 65 SS 396 Impala big block convertible ( not a frame off ) but a complete resto and by myself and my helper (the wife) it was in terrible shape and parts near imposable to find it took 1 1/2 years to complete but only a little over 1,025 hrs actual labor its in my journal. but as we in the business know after you get the starter money (I like half down)!! and you come to the point you are over that, the money comes in spurts and the customer wants you to do more which increases the price (I hate that) and when the cars done even though you kept the guy abreast of the charges during the whole build; at the end when you go to get the balance owed you get the old "HOW COME IT COST SO MUCH " "I DIDN'T THINK IT WAS THAT HIGH" then you set down and go over everything on the bill step by step that He signed, on what he wanted done! And then your skills are put to the test on diplomacy because you want to put his head in your louver press and put a ouver right between his eyes LOL! That's the worst example I ever had!
The good customers really make up for the few bad over 35 years!
How many can relate to that LOL
|69 widetrack
Your right, most don't have any idea, they are ignorant and if they have an open mind they can be educated. We are all ignorant of something, so I can appreciate someone not knowing. It's the ones that think they have an idea and don't, their mind is closed because they feel that they know it all regardless...those are ignorant idiots. They could very well be the ones that watch reality TV, believe it and get that priceless education from writers, director and actors.
Love the sign in your Dad's shop...now that's reality.
It almost seems like there is a double standard, not so much in the auto body industry, but I remember when I was in the mechanical side...if I had a car booked say at 2 PM...if it wasn't in the shop and the work started by 2:15 PM, I would get yelled at but, if they go to a doctors office, they don't like it but they can wait for hours and don't say a word.
All of you guys are right. But the real cause of all these problems began when Cable TV was invented. That led to Satellite TV. When those two products came to being, "reality tv" went from "Days of our Lives" to the endless crap that's being shown today. Why is it so prevalent today? Simple. It's cheap to produce. Very little scripting and very little writing. Very little production costs. You have to fill all those channels with something. One idea guy comes up with a premise and it's cloned ten more times. Now you have ten lousy shows. Put that together with at least two generations of people with the attitude that things are "owed to them" because everyone else has " it" and show them flashy people who are " bigger than life" telling them how easy things are, and you have a moron watching a flashy moron on tv and believing everything that's shoved down their throats. It must be true because theres ten shows showing the same thing. Common sense went out the window when the viewer failed to realize the these shows aren't anything but but a vehicle to make you want to buy the sponsors products.

Lisa and Christian were married at Little Brown Church followed by a reception at Golden Road Brewery in Atwater Village, Calif. on August 10. The bride wore a silhouette strapped a-line wedding gown with floral cutouts on the hem, while the groom wore a seersucker suit. To fit their casual theme, bridesmaids and groomsmen chose their own outfits! Bouquets and boutonnieres featured peonies, dahlias, roses, and orchids. These two nature-lovers walked down the aisle hand-in-hand to say their "I do's." Following the ceremony, guests arrived at a local pub filled yummy vegan foods, craft brewed beers, and lawn games galore. They were also asked to consider helping rescue a research chimp or saving an animal shelter. Favors were bags of "seeds of love" to plant. Can you guess where they went on their honeymoon? A 2-week safari to none other than Africa!

The Raye White Scholars will be new or returning undergraduate and graduate students at the University who have been accepted for full-time, regular admission. The recipients will have demonstrated academic excellence, leadership skills and a commitment to their faith. The Office of Scholarships and Financial Aid will determine the recipient(s) of the award.
Fr. Mike Buentello, CSB, director of Campus Ministry, said he thanks White for her generosity, and her support of students can make a difference on campus and in students' lives beyond their time at the University.
"The fact that the scholarships are based on leadership, commitment to faith and community service will help to shape our students into being morally responsible people in our society," Fr. Buentello said.
In addition to maintaining academic scholarship requirements, the Scholars will perform 15 hours of community service annually, including a community service project designed by the cohort to benefit the UST and Greater Houston community.
Fr. Buentello said the scholarship supports the University's desire to educate the whole person.
"We want our students to be leaders not only in their careers but also in faith and to demonstrate leadership in service to the community throughout their lives," he said. "It is my prayer that the presence of these students will help to inspire others to be leaders in faith and service to others."
UST President Dr. Robert Ivany said the University is grateful for White's gift and her continued support of students.
"Raye White possesses the quiet strength, elegant dignity and warm generosity that inspires all of us," Dr. Ivany said. "We hope that many generations of Raye White Scholars at the University of St. Thomas will have the opportunity to emulate her faith in God, integrity and professionalism."
White said she is pleased to make the donation to provide scholarships to deserving students entering the University of St. Thomas.
"By accepting these scholarships and the service to the campus community that they require, the recipients will take a major step to graduating as leaders of faith and character," White said. "I send future Raye White Scholars my very best wishes and encouragement."
White is a longtime supporter of the University. She is the executive vice president and a director at Fayez Sarofim & Co. She is serving in her fourth term as a member of the UST Board of directors, having served on the board from 1992 to 1998 and since 2007. White also serves as a vice chair of the Capital Campaign Cabinet.

Posts Tagged 'ruched jersey top'
top of the morning
August 21st, 20110
So when you go on your next shopping trip, make a visit to Bravissimo a top priority, it will cut out a lot of unnecessary leg work. For those of you that don't know, Pepperberry is a range of clothes designed especially for us, taking into consideration all of the common problems that us ladies encounter when buying clothes. You will be able to say goodbye to stretched fabric, buttons straining and gaping, tops riding up and ending up too short in the body. Our clothes are designed in standard sizes, but the clever bit is, you can buy them in Curvy, Really Curvy and Super Curvy, so there is a size to fit everyone. As we know all too well, that even if you have the same bra size as your best friend, your boobs are different shapes, so a Really Curvy may fit you and your friend may be a Super Curvy.
For a preview of what we have to offer in our autumn range from Pepperberry, have a look at some gorgeous new tops we have selected for you.
The Floral Twist Front Blouse is a pretty, casual top, it has a deep V neckline that will divide your boobs beautifully, and a V- neck will also give the impression of lengthening your torso. This top has a twisted detail at the front, which is very flattering and the print is a cute ditsy floral.
The Jersey Chiffon Trim Top, is not too low-cut but still incredibly sexy, (think less is more with this top) It has a slight sheen which makes it a perfect going out top, it is made of jersey and has a gorgeous ruching detail and chiffon trim around the neckline, and it is available in black.
The Ruched Jersey Top is pretty similar to the top above, but a more daywear option, it is available in grey marl, which is great for this autumn/winter, it is perfect for you sporty girls, but is still on trend. It has long sleeves and a panel of ruching at the front and is very roomy and super comfortable for your boobs.
Check out all of Pepperberry's autumn range on the website…

The Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Unit at GBMC addresses non-healing chronic wounds, specific infection types such as necrotizing infections and osteomyelitis, osteoradionecrosis (bone damage caused by radiation therapy) and other soft tissue radiation injuries. HBOT is a modality of treatment in which patients breathe 100 percent oxygen in an enclosed chamber at two to three times atmospheric pressure. Oxygen dissolves into the blood plasma causing an increase in tissue oxygenation, stimulating healing of tissues, forming new blood vessels, controlling infections and regenerating new, healthy tissues.
HBOT can be delivered in either multi-place or monoplace chambers. GBMC has six active monoplace chambers, making it the largest hospital-based HBOT unit in the region.
Coverage for Hyperbaric Medicine is provided by GBMC physicians who have completed training in an approved Undersea and Hyperbaric Medical Society (UHMS) Program and meet the GBMC credentialing criteria for privileges in hyperbaric medicine. Our physicians work closely with registered nurses and technologists who have received specialized training to deliver and monitor HBO treatments.

François Le Vaillant: Accidental Botanist?
French ornithologist and travel writer François Le Vaillant was undoubtedly the most influential early traveler to South Africa. His travel writings were widely translated into most European languages and he helped shape many important literary and cultural genres. Reputedly the best taxidermist of his day, he also played an important role in changing museum exhibitions.
Le Vaillant's attitude towards botanists such as Anders Sparrman and Carl Peter Thunberg was disparaging in his earliest writings, but later on he confessed to wishing that he had been better educated in botany. Perhaps surprisingly, he owned a collection of important botanical drawings of South African flowers, a collection that the South African Parliament purchased, along with other paintings he had sold, in 1963.
This paper uses new biographical information about Le Vaillant, and the discovery of his map produced by Jean-Benjamin de La Borde for Louis XVI, to reassess his activity and role as a botanist and to examine the conditions of production of paintings of South African flora in the late eighteenth century. The map shows that Dutch floral painter Willem van Leen contributed to the six named plants on the map, while archival research shows that Le Vaillant was friendly with Gerard van Spaendonck, a leading botanical illustrator of his time, and with André Thouin, professor of horticulture at the Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle in Paris.
The paper will try to re-establish the links between the illustrations of Robert Gordon, William Paterson, and Le Vaillant, and to argue that Le Vaillant and those that worked with him in France deserve more recognition as media innovators and as discoverers and portrayers of South African flora.
Ian Glenn is Professor of Media Studies at the University of Cape Town. He studied at the University of Natal before taking postgraduate degrees at the University of York (UK) and the University of Pennsylvania, where he completed a PhD in modern American and British literature. He joined the English Department at the University of Cape Town and helped create a new Centre for Film and Media Studies and was Director of the Centre from 2005–12.
His research into early South African literature led him into archival work on French ornithologist and explorer François Le Vaillant. He has co-authored two books on Le Vaillant and written numerous articles about him. Most recently, he curated "The King's Map," an exhibition at the Iziko South African Museum in Cape Town that had as its center a map based on Le Vaillant's travels made for King Louis XVI. The map, produced in 1790, had never before been exhibited.

The Coming Immigration Debate
posted at 6:19 pm on December 12, 2012 by Duane Patterson
It's going to be a tough issue for conservatives, and even the very articulate Marco Rubio seems to believe it will be a comprehensive package, and he normally hates comprehensive packages. Here's what he has to say with Hugh Hewitt on Hugh's show this afternoon.
Look, I'm open-minded on the approach, except that my preference is we have to deal with it comprehensively. I just question the wisdom of doing it in one massive piece of legislation, the reason being that every time that Washington has tried to tackle an issue like this comprehensively, you end up trading one good policy in exchange for five very bad policies or four very bad policies. I also think it's difficult to put together the kind of support for a big piece of legislation. Some people think that that means well, let's just do the easy stuff and not touch the hard stuff. I don't think that's true at all. I think we have to do all of it. That's why I believe we have to deal with it comprehensively. And maybe I'm wrong about doing it in one big bill. I'm just wary of it, because I think it's failed in the past, because you end up having to do three or four really bad things in order to get one good thing done. Look, this is a serious issue. We have to solve it. It's important for our country to solve this issue. But it has to be done, and it has to be done in a way that's humane and compassionate. But it also has to be done in a way that's responsible. We do want to be compassionate to the people, like the young people that were brought here when they were children. We do want to take into account the fact that when you talk about 11 million undocumented people, you're talking about 11 million human beings with real families and real stories. And on the other hand, we want to make sure that we're being fair to the people who have done it right, and we want to make sure we don't do anything that encourages people to do this in the future, because if we do it the wrong way, in ten years, we'll have another 11 million people. So we don't want that to happen, either. So this is going to take a little time, but I think it's important to do it right. It's a very important thing for our country. America cannot be what it is destined to be in the 21st Century if we don't figure this out, and I hope to play an important role in that.
The rest of the interview transcript, and the audio of it, will be available a little later here.

Discussion in 'The Trash Can' started by haribobo, Apr 7, 2012.
my choice : Chan, Abbott, Kozuka
Chan, Takahashi & Joubert.
I wish it would be: Abbott, Kozuka, Takahashi, but I have a feeling it will end up being: Chan, Takahashi, Amodio.
I expect Abbott and Kozuka will suffer from lower PCS due to their disappointments at Worlds, no matter how they skate.
Can I have different skaters (whom I like too) who did not medal at Worlds medal at this event? If so, they are Kozuka, Brian and Jeremy (in no particular order).
Is this the official entries already?
The best part is that most of these guys are completely unpredictable. Of course what we can predict is that Chan will be on the podium, most likely he will win. The rest is an open case. Takahashi is my guess and then we have Kozuka, Joubert, Amodio. I somehow don't believe in Abbott.
My favorite is Jeremy Abbott. But my vote goes to the same skaters as yours.
Who was it that voted for Bacchini or Bush finishing on the podium? lol
The same person who voted for Maé Bérénice Méité in the Ladies' poll.
And, yes, he has a wonderful sense of humor.
Chan, Takahashi, Kozuka
poor Voronov has no votes
I picked the same.
I picked Chan (is there anyone that did not?), Takahashi (I still believe he is hit or miss) and Joubert (more for sentimental reasons than anything else).
Even though this is kind of a meaningless competition after worlds (at least to me), Jeremy has a great chance to redeem himself here. The skater he is likely to replace on the podium is Joubert, but he is capable of beating Takahashi too. He could beat Chan only if he skated two perfect programs and Chan had at least 6 mistakes total (SP+LP).
I picked Chan, Takahashi and Kozuka.
(love Abbott, but it's the end of the season, and he's never his best so late)
Chan, Takahashi, and Joubert, the first two almost a sure bet and probably Joubert in 3rd or even 2nd the way things have been going lately. If not Joubert, then Amodio but hopefully Joubert!
I think Chan, Takahashi, and Abbott. Abbott is due for another good competition and skating well he will easily beat Joubert and Kozuka (even if Kozuka himself has a better competition) and has capability to beat Takahashi as well.
My wish, Chan, Joubert and an unknown. Now that'd be AWESOME podium!
Here's hoping that Patrick has a marvelous skate at WT and breaks his own records . I sure do hope those of us in Canada will have some sort of "feed" to watch.
Considering Chan's record scores were set at Canadian Nationals when skating his best, the only place he has any hope to ever touch those scores again is Canadian Nationals.
If he skates at the same level anywhere as his National, he wouldn't need to be at home to have those scores.
You are delusional (not that this wasnt already evident about you) if you think ANY skater would receive the same scores as they do at their Nationals for the exact same performances, especialy at Canadians which have doled out a ridiculous 135 for Dube & Davison, 144 for Rochette, and numerous other absurd scores. I wont even bother getting into Chan's comical scores at Nationals over the years, especialy in 2009 and 2010 when he wasnt even the Worlds top skater yet.
Since the ISU doesn't recognize Nationals scores, wouldn't his records be from Worlds 2011?
^Good question, Proustable.
I think it will be Jeremy - Patrick - Brian.
He's not going anyway. He has an injury.
Kovtun is going instead now. More His Oilyness Kiss N' Cry action to look forward to now
so for Mororov in WTT
has I/K, Leonova, Amodio, C/L and Kovtun now
his Oilyness but maybe Leonova will rub her make up on his other cheek this time
Yes and from what I have seen he is very handsy with Kovtun. Should be interesting...
I voted for Patrick, Dai and Brian. But would not be suprised if Jeremy or Florent medal.
Chan, Takahashi, Amodio!

After opening the season with a pair of wins against non-conference competition last Saturday, the 18th-ranked North Carolina men's tennis team travels to Champaign, Ill. this weekend to play in the 2013 Intercollegiate Tennis Association Kick-Off Weekend. The winner of the Illinois regional will advance to the ITA Team Nationals next month in Seattle, Wash.
On paper this event looks to be the toughest of all the regionals as all four teams land inside the Top 25 in the ITA Men's College Tennis Rankings. This site will more than likely feature the most competitive team matches of all the sites during ITA Kick-Off Weekend.
No. 16 Illinois will have a new look this year with Dennis Nevolo and Roy Kalmanovich both gone, leaving the top two spots in the singles lineup vacant. The Fighting Illini will turn to Tim Kopinski to fill the void at first singles after recording a 10-5 record in the fall. The No. 19 Tennessee Volunteers will look upset Illinois on the Illini's home courts in the first round behind No. 9 Mikelis Libietis. Tennessee returns five of their six starters from 2012 and with the addition of transfer John Collins, the Volunteers will look to build on last year's success.
A win by Tennessee along with a win by North Carolina would set up a rematch of last year's NCAA second round match which was won by the Tar Heels 4-0 in Chapel Hill. The Tar Heels are looking strong again this year as they feature their top four singles players in the Top 110 of the ITA rankings as well as a doubles team in the Top 50. Esben Hess-Olesen is North Carolina's top guy, recording a 10-5 record and a No. 18 ranking. Altogether, Coach Sam Paul's team is counting on an infusion of new talent as only three of last year's singles starters are back for the 2013 campaign.
North Carolina will not have a cakewalk to the finals by any means as they square off against No. 24 Tulsa. The Golden Hurricane have five of their six starters back this year including their No. 1 singles player Japie De Klerk, who is 34th in the nation. De Klerk is joined in the national spotlight by Alejandro Espejo who will be playing No. 3 for Tulsa and is ranked 69th. UNC defeated the Golden Hurricane 5-2 in Tulsa last year in regular-season play.

Hope Sandoval & The Warm Inventions - Trouble (new video!)
There's probably no one modern voice that soothes quite like Hope Sandoval's does. From her days with Mazzy Star in the early 90s through her current project with The Warm Inventions, Sandoval has the ability to leave you hanging on every word she sings. It's with this sense of eased emotions that she's won over critics with her recent album, Through the Devil Softly.
While album opener, Blanchard, acted as the lead single, it's the hauntingly desperado-tinged Trouble that gets the first official video. If you're in the mood to melt today, I highly suggest you spin this disc, spotted with intermissions of video watching.
Be sure to pay attention, because the elusively-coy Sandoval makes quite the trippy number of appearances in the new video, directed by Tony Moina and Spencer Bewley.

Washington • Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke warned Tuesday that budget cuts under the upcoming sequestration would create a "significant" burden on an economy that is growing only moderately.
In his semi-annual economic report to Congress, the Fed chief urged lawmakers and the Obama administration to "consider replacing the sharp, front-loaded spending cuts required by the sequestration with policies that reduce the federal deficit more gradually in the near term but more substantially in the longer run."
He told the Senate Banking Committee that the sequestration set to take effect March 1, which would cut federal spending by $85 billion this year, and other recent near-term budget changes could create a "significant head wind for the economic recovery."
"Besides having adverse effects on jobs and incomes, a slower recovery would lead to less actual deficit reduction in the short run for any given set of fiscal actions," he said in prepared remarks.
Bernanke said that the economy was continuing to grow at a moderate pace and that the flattening of growth late last year did not indicate a "stalling-out" of the recovery, but instead reflected weather-related disruptions and other transitory factors.
Still, Bernanke again highlighted the weakness and hardships in the labor market, noting the high unemployment rate and the millions of people struggling with long-term joblessness and the inability to obtain full-time work.
In addition to the slow recovery and the risks of sequestration, Bernanke's remarks came as the U.S. and the world faced renewed threats from the eurozone debt crisis, which had quieted since late last year but reawakened this week in the wake of an impasse in Italian elections.
Inside and outside the Fed, experts and policymakers are concerned that the Fed's easy-money policies could be sowing the seeds of runaway inflation, asset bubbles and unstable financial markets down the road.

I was having an arguement recently with a guy over Cameron Maybin (Tigers prospect, 2005 draft). I was telling him that the amount of hits he had in the infield were astronomical and that it was crazy to expect him to be able to repeat such a thing and that he was insanely lucky all season with having hits fall in (he had a .415 BABIP in 2006).
Well thanks to minorleaguesplits.com I made some charts to show what I was referring to. Once I did that I decided I would take a look at what I think are the Reds top 4 hitting prospects did.
To explain what you are looking at, I took the number of balls hit to a position by a player, then divided it by the number of hits they actually got in those hits to that position. I also am going to include Cameron Maybin just becuase I have it ready to go. Also note that the areas are just to represent the typical ground a defender should cover, and I just shaded that in myself to represent where the ball roughly was either caught by or picked up by the defender.

The KiMo was designed and built in 1927 using the style and designs that were very common to several Native American cultures in the American southwest at that time.
Now on the National Register of Historic Places, the design elements of the KiMo Theatre are preserved for their original cultural significance.
Although today the swastika can evoke negative emotions, the KiMo invites visitors to remember that the original meaning of this ancient sacred symbol is one of life and prosperity.
Collectors Guide, swastika history
Additional information can be found in a very thorough article at,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swastika which was the source of the following paragraphs.
"The history of the swastika goes back to the origins of the Eurasian Continent. The swastika is an important symbol in Hinduism and Buddhism, among others, and was also used in Native American and Jewish faiths prior to World War II. By the early twentieth century it was regarded worldwide as symbol of good luck and auspiciousness."

Gov. Gary Herbert has appointed attorney Jeffrey C. Wilcox to fill a vacancy on the 5th District Court bench, which hears cases originating in Beaver, Iron and Washington counties.
"Jeff has a well-deserved reputation as a litigator who possesses both outstanding skills and unquestioned integrity. His wide breadth of practice areas will make him an asset to the bench" Herbert said Wednesday in a news release. "He has demonstrated a commitment to serving the people of Utah with his practice and will now do so as a judge."
"I am truly humbled by the invitation to serve on the court," said Wilcox in a news release "It's a great opportunity to serve the community I love."
Wilcox joined the St. George-based Gallian, Wilcox, Welker, Olson & Beckstrom, L.C., in 1984 shortly after being admitted to the Utah Bar. Wilcox has practiced in many areas, including general litigation, real estate, banking, commercial, corporate, partnership, business, personal injury, insurance defense, construction law, and adoption.
Wilcox earned his law degree in 1984 at Brigham Young University, which included a summer law program at Cambridge, England. He received a bachelor's degree in agricultural business administration from the University of Minnesota in 1980.
Wilcox's appointment is subject to confirmation by the Utah Senate.

If you have experience with heavily recoiling guns, go for it. If you don't, you may find the .44 a little vigorous with full power loads.
With powerful guns, reloading becomes even more important, not just to reduce costs, but to reduce the pounding of full power loads. Begin with mild loads. Practice, Practice, Practice. As you get better and better with a light load, build up the power level so that you eventually get good with the full power loads without the side effect of bad habbits like flinching due to recoil.
The .357 is a great all around gun. I do most of mycenterfire practice with one, but I do even more with .22s. I have .22s that match weight, balance, grip and trigger action of my centerfires. With the cost and availability of ammo now, I do most of my practice with the .22 and just a little with the centerfire after I have gotten things going well with the .22.
