SeaPark is SDOTs Performance-Based Parking Pricing Program
Since late 2010, SDOT has set on-street parking rates and hours of operation based on occupancy data to achieve a goal of one to two spaces available per block for visitor and shopper access. We believe we can improve the parking experience by aiding people in finding parking faster, which also means less circling traffic congestion and vehicle emissions.
SDOT conducts an annual paid parking study that is used for the data analysis in rate-setting. The City adopted Seattle Municipal Code 11.16.121 in late 2010 and conducted a Performance-Based Parking Design Study in 2011.
For more information:
Contact Mary Catherine Snyder at email@example.com or (206) 684-8110
Extended Evening Hours
Seattle has many neighborhood business districts that are active destinations for customers and visitors well into the evening. Paid parking is extended until 8 p.m. in these areas:
In other areas with paid parking, hours are typically 8 a.m. – 6 p.m.
Commute Period Parking Restrictions
Drivers should be aware that some locations have restricted parking hours to accommodate morning or evening commute traffic. Restricted hours are clearly noted on the face graphic on the pay stations, on street signs, and on the Seattle Parking Map. Please observe restricted hours—vehicles parked during restricted hours may be towed
Pre-Payment Options
As part of a nightlife initiative, most pay stations are programmed to open at 10 p.m. to sell parking stickers for the following morning. This gives drivers a little more time to get home safely and retrieve their vehicles the next day. You will not be able to pre-pay at pay stations on blocks with morning peak hour restrictions or for Sunday morning.

Syracuse started off the game just as they did versus Princeton, with a jumper from freshman center DaJuan Coleman. But, unlike their last match, the Orange did trail early, 6-2, before breaking an 11-11 tie and never looking back.
Sophomore guard Michael Carter-Williams, who had just set a new single-game career high in assists when Syracuse played Wagner, topped his 11 assists with 13 against Colgate.
Senior forward James Southerland came out strong from the bench for the second-straight game, following his 11-point first half performance against Princeton with 16 at the break versus Colgate.
Center DaJuan Coleman set a new single-game career high in points with 12 before coming out by the seven-minute mark of the second half.
In front of their biggest home crowd of the season, 21,085, the Orange advanced to 3-0 at home and their 25th-straight win inside the Carrier Dome, 87-51.

The reason I've started this thread is to show members NOT to create competition, but to give them an idea of price vs. versatility vs. accuracy. We understand....BOTH ARE FIBERGLASS, both has access doors in the back (jet pack is hollow, and great for adding custom beacons and stabilizers, not talking about STORAGE, like for some change, wallet, etc.). Some people prefer versatibility, others prefer to go for accuracy. Decisions, decisions!
We understand that both are different shapes and sizes in a way by a "microscale", but we are also looking into how heavy they are, and the cost, from what I've seen and heard so far.
MLC's jet pack is the lighter of both, and cheaper in price, which is DOUBLE FEATURE for the "Fett money-saving enthusiast". In the other hand, we have BM's Jet Pack, "more accurate" in features, versatile in the way it is assembled, crisp detail, but price is way above than MLC's, and it's a bit heavy, even that it's also hollow according to the pics. Not sure about the JP rocket. Is it hollow??? Thrusters as well???? Are both versions with hollow rockets???
Can anyone who owns either one or both, post comparison pics, info, details and opinions of their work? This is the thread to post all that.

Myanmar has been ruled for nearly two decades by a brutal military regime but the reaction of the population has been relatively quiet and terrorist attacks are unknown. However, yesterday in Yangon, two bombs exploded in the dowtown section of the city inlcuding one near the luxury Traders Hotel. No one has stepped forth to claim credit for the blasts and security police are not quite certain what is going on. Fortunately, few people were on the streets and apparently no one was injued when two cars were blown up. Earlier this week, the state-run-radio predicted there might be bombings in protest against next month's referendum on a new constitution which was drafted by the military junta. Myanmar has been without a constitution since 1988 when the military junta seized power and scrapped the nation's democratic constitution.
This blog is not given to conspiracy theories but it might not be outrageous to suggest the military might plant bombs in order to portray themselves as defenders of law and order. Who knows what goes on in the minds of dictators and thugs.

Good evening, fellas. I would like to present to you my review of the Fettpride FPH2. I'm very excited, as it seems that I'll be the first to review it formally, so I hope that it will be informative and helpful for those looking to upgrade their Empire Strikes Back Boba Fett helmet.
The key word of that last sentence is upgrade. That word was used intentionally, because, first and foremost, this simply is like nothing that has ever been available to the community. Fettpride has begun shipping these kits in full force, so this should give many of us something to chew on while they're in route.
That said, I will grade this helmet using the following metric:
So let's get to it, and hopefully you all get as excited as I did!
As we all first saw in this thread, the FPH2 bears a STRIKING resemblance to the screen-used ESB helmet. The key here is that the infamous 'wavy brow' is represented faithfully. After EXHAUSTIVE examination of the ESB brow, I've concluded that it's obviously there, but ALOT more subtle than we realize. Cameras/lighting play tricks on our eyes. At some point, I'll start a thread regarding that topic (you can make ANY helmet have a wavy brow -left side, right side, middle - with the right lighting). The great thing about this helmet is that, yes, the wavy brow is there, but more importantly, it's NOT exaggerated, matching the screen-used helmet perfectly. The infamous 'flare' is also well-represented. It's not nearly as dramatic as some other helmets I've seen, but it is there, like the brow, in a very subtle and unobtrusive way.
The FPH2 also features a totally asymmetrical visor (it's VERY uneven from side to side), which we know from the screen-used Stormtrooper and Darth Vader helmets, is totally possible. It's much easier to tell with the Stormtrooper/Vader helmets because those helmets are all the same color (for the most part), whereas Boba Fett's helmet is a chaotic mishmash of many, many colors. The visor (which is not the visor included - just a spare I had already cut and was laying around) is only taped into place, so pay no mind to the fitment, but here are a few pics of her.
Fettpride is known for packaging his products beautifully, and the FPH2 is certainly no exception. The box included an unwrapped helmet smothered in popcorn, but more importantly, the accessories were bubble-wrapped in two separate packages, keeping everything in perfect condition. The rangefinder stalk is hollowed (ready for Jc27's light kit), the rangefinder is very close to Terminal Fettler-quality, and all of the necessary nuts and bolts are supplied. It is as close to a mass-production-type kit as it gets.
The best part about a helmet kit of this kind is the fact that the ears are separate, in my opinion. The only other helmet I've purchased is the Asok CC (itself a rework of the Master Replicas ESB helmet), which has three of the four ear pieces molded into the casting, and while this certainly takes a lot of frustration out of assembling the kit, it's also a bit of a bummer to me, since, like most of us here on TDH, I want my helmet(s) to be as close to screen-used as possible, in every aspect.
Although kits featuring separate ears are not rare at all, the FPH2 ears feature a unique attachment method. The pieces have all been molded with a nut-sized cutout set into them, and the nuts that are included in the kit fit into the holes very well. This means that it's no longer necessary to drill out holes into the backsides of the ears!
That said, lining the ears up to drill is still a pain (it was for me, at least). There are dimples set into the sides of the helmet, but I still ended up having to drill holes that were large enough in diameter to allow for some play to get them lined up properly.
Like any other Fettpride product, the helmet really shines here. The fiberglass is thin enough to comfortably wear (even with the future addition of JodoKast89's forthcoming ears), but is solid enough that I don't feel that the helmet is fragile. The lines are sharp enough to cut glass, and I can't find any examples of soft detail anywhere. Fettpride has set the proper ESB damage into the helmet in the appropriate areas, so there will be no more filling the damage of the GMH and scratching in the ESB damage (commission artists-extraordinaire superjedi and deadland will especially appreciate this). All pieces included in this kit look as sharp as sharp can be, so the time spent prepping the kit will be minimal. Fettpride has also set a type of 'tag' into the interior of the helmet, which is great, since I really like the numbering systems that he typically uses.
So now that you have the kit in-hand, how do you feel about it? I certainly can only speak for myself, but my verdict is that I am absolutely enchanted. I've been tossing around the idea of getting a GMH, a fiberglass copy of the MR, even trying to track down the still-awesome FPH. However, when the news broke about this helmet becoming available, I got on board with it wholeheartedly. I'm glad I did.
Now that these helmets are starting to hit our hands, I think that just about everyone will agree with me, because it was worth the wait. My grades may seem high, but that's how it is, folks. There's just so little to remotely complain about. As I said before, the detail is sharp, the tell-tales of the ESB lid are present, and the build is sturdy. Paint-up threads should start popping up like crazy in the next few weeks, and I'm looking forward to following each and every one. The TDH community is going to be able to do some amazing things with this lid.
So get one. And I heard a rumor that if enough people flood his PMs with requests, Fettpride will get busy on a new RotJ, as well (I'm kidding. That's a lie. Leave the poor guy alone).
Thanks for reading, and I hope it helps somebody (I just had fun writing it)...

I am currently studying with Dharmachari Sagaramati who is a member of the Western Buddhist Order and a Buddhist scholar. In the Following paper he descibes quite well my basic take on conditioned arising and one you may not have heard before.
I highly recommend it. Especially if your curios about the FWBO and Sangharakshitas approach.
Let me know what you think.
I should add that "emergence" is used by Darmachari Sagaramati and not by Sangharakshita. I think its a good fit though.

Howdy guys,
I'm looking for any help, links, etc, in finding someone or a company that does RESIN copies of these 2 weapons;
1. 2nd Model Colt Dragoon
2. 1860 Colt Army Revolver
Got some modification ideas and need either of those 2 handguns in Resin. Custom Handblaster for a Custom Mandalore.
Plus, besides the 44-40, these are my 2 fav black powder guns.
Just so everyone knows, I DON'T have the above guns at all. I wish I did though...
Thanks all and I really appreciate the help.
Stay safe and thanks!

I know I'll get flamed... But man... I'd skip Taurus. Do a search for Taurus on various gun sites - especially Taurus customer service over the past 12 months .
I've seen some horror stories that go one for months with regular updates from the poor victims of a Taurus purchase. I've seen multiple people tell very similar stories. I've read enough over the past year from enough people to know I would skip Taurus even if they sold the best gun on the planet. And, all the dozens of pro-Taurus guys who will jump out of the woodwork following this post will not change my mind.
When ya treat some people that crappy - I'll take my business elsewhere...
Now, I have shot the 45 XD recently. I had zero interest in XDs for years now. But, that gun impressed me. I want one now.

- ARSC Fall Training Schedule
- Guest Speakers at ARSC Next Week
- Physics Lectures, Prof. Sir Roger Penrose
- Quick Tip
ARSC and Cray Release Portable BioLibrary
The Arctic Region Supercomputing Center (ARSC) announced this week the release of a new portable version (Open CBL) of the Cray Bioinformatics Library (CBL).
The library, which was developed in cooperation with Cray Inc. by ARSC MPP Specialist James Long, contains the same functions as the CBL, but is compatible with hardware systems other than Cray.
The original CBL is a set of fundamental library routines that take advantage of proprietary Cray hardware to implement some common nucleotide/protein sequence manipulations typical in a bioinformatics context. This library was optimized for the Cray SV1 and Cray X1 platforms and is available from Cray. The Portable CBL is written in C and implements the computational primitives of the original library in a generic fashion with little regard to specific hardware. The Portable CBL routines facilitate performance by operating on compressed data whenever possible.
"It has been a wonderful opportunity for ARSC to work together with Cray Inc. to contribute to the field of bioinformatics," said ARSC director Frank Williams. "We hope to see this library continue to grow as additional biological computational primitives are identified and implemented."
The Portable Cray Bioinformatics Library is now available on SourceForge.net and can be downloaded from:
for use by researchers.

Edward Oliver, Associate Director Office of Advanced Scientific Computing Research U.S. Department of Energy --- Thursday, Sept. 4th: 9:00 am - in Butro 109 TITLE: "HPC Technology and Science at AHPCRC" Dr. Paul Muzio, Vice President, Government Programs, NCSI and Support Infrastructure Director, Army High Performance Computing Research Center (AHPCRC)
Physics Lectures, Prof. Sir Roger Penrose
Monday September 8th at 3:00PM in Rm201 Natural Sciences Building Special Physics Colloquium TITLE: Is Quantum State Reduction an Objective Gravitational Effect? Some New Theory and Experiment Abstract: Quantum theory is one of the supreme achievements of the 20th century. Yet its measurement problem points to a deep paradox. I propose that its resolution demands a change to the theory, the nature of which depends upon the principles of that other great achievement of the 20th century physics: Einstein's general theory of relativity. I shall describe an actual physical experiment presently under active investigation in Oxford and Santa Barbara, which is aimed at eventually testing this proposal. --- Tuesday September 9th at 7:30PM in Schaible Auditorium on the UAF Campus UAF Presents a Science Lecture for a General Audience TITLE: Science and the Mind Abstract: Is the brain a computer? Or does the phenomenon of conscious thought demand something beyond computation? I shall argue that a physical explanation of consciousness will indeed require something more than computation, and that it must lie outside the confines of the physical science of today P though not necessarily of the future. --- About the speaker: Sir Roger Penrose, the Emeritus Rouse Ball Professor of Mathematics at the University of Oxford, was knighted in 1994 for his outstanding contributions to science and mathematics. He has also received a number of prizes and awards including: The 1988 Wolf Prize which he shared with Stephen Hawking for their understanding of the universe, The Royal Society Royal Medal, The Albert Einstein prize, and The Dirac Medal, among others.

text: does anyone know where to find some good adjustable sights for this gun? i have looked alot but wary on getting one cuz im kinda nervous that they wont fit right. particularly someone who has personally got them for their own firearm. i am quite prone to 3 dot sights they seem to work better for me. the straight 8 is kinda a pain for me to adjust my point of aim on target to hit more accurately. i am open to tridiom sights but biggest thing is i am lookin for an adjustable rear sight set that will work with my holsters as they are a nice squeeze on my piece. but all recommendations are welcome


text: Quote from TSL Facebook (given permission to put it here): This past January, Jennifer Kirk and I poured our hearts into The Skating Lesson as a way of bringing the sport of figure skating back to the people who love it the most: the participants and fans. Dismayed by years of evaporating coverage, we launched a Youtube series aimed at raising discussing, engaging viewers and revealing the unique personalities in our sport. Immediately, Mitch Moyer of the USFS attempted to put a stop to our show by calling each of us 15 times during the course of a 45-minute period. After many wonderful shows, interviews and experiences, it is our deep regret to inform you that U.S. Figure Skating has denied our credential to the upcoming U.S. International Figure Skating Classic due to 'space reasons.' We had lined up many interviews with athletes and coaches and planned to provide a unique behind-the-scenes look for our viewers.

Hey guys new guy here, i decided to start making a fett suit over the next year or two, found this place and now i know it's going to be a lot easier!!
I'm a long time fett fan i even made a decent fett page back in my early teenage years (24 now). He's always been my favorite character. I wanted a suit for as long as i can remember, but have only seriously considered it the past 3 years or so.
I didn't realize how little i know about fett's suits untill i visited here!
I'm still trying to figure out where to start, where to get armor, helmet, soft parts, etc. As well as picking which fett i want to do, i'm leaning towards se (esb helmet) finally figured out what FP BM and MOW mean too! (If there are any more impt. acronyms let me know!)
I'll be doing my homework for awhile lots of good info here!! Any tips or advice are very welcome!!

Bus driver nailed for abduction
(Akron) - A bus driver is locked up in Summit County for trying to take liberties with a pair of developmentally disabled women he was responsible for taking to their day programs.
48-year old Reinaldo Luis Ortiz Velazquez, while working for a private firm, picked up a 22-year old woman and headed to her day program Sept. 27.
That's when police say the Stow man pulled into a secluded area and asked her to remove her clothes. Velazquez then drove the woman to her day program.
She alerted the Summit County Sheriff's Office to the incident. They launched an investigation where Inspector Bill Holland says this was not an isolated incident.
Velazquez is accused of picking up a 23 year old developmentally disabled woman in June. He once again pulled into a secluded area and asked the woman to perform sex acts on him in exchange for $12.00.
She refused and Velazquez told her to keep the money in exchange for her silence over the incident.
He's locked up in the Summit County Jail on felony charges of abduction and compelling prostitution and a misdemeanor count of soliciting.

Overseas travel is an expensive proposition and difficult for many families to afford. Still, there are ways to lessen the financial burden of an international trip so you can see the world without breaking the bank. Here are a few:
Get the best exchange rate. There are essentially three ways to exchange currency: converting cash at a bank before your trip, using a currency exchange service like the ones found in airports, or simply using a credit card, in which case your money is converted automatically upon making a purchase. So, which is the best option?
According to an exchange rate study conducted by Card Hub, international travelers can save up to 15% by using a credit card. More specifically, major worldwide credit networks automatically provide the best exchange rates possible–currently 14.7% better than the currency exchange companies that operate out of airports and 7.9% better than the average major bank. Yet you can't just open a major credit card account and expect those savings.
Get a no-foreign-fee credit card.
Over 90% of all credit card issuers charge foreign usage fees, which inflate the cost of any transaction processed outside the United States. No foreign transaction fee credit cards don't have these fees, however, making them perfectly suited for overseas spending. In order to use one of these cards to your full advantage, you should adhere to the following guidelines:
Get your card before booking flights, hotels and activities. Foreign fees apply to purchases made through foreign-based companies whether you are outside of the U.S. or not. Make sure your credit card issuer does not charge these types of international fees before booking your trip to avoid surprises on your statement.
Use a worldwide payment network. Your payment network dictates the number of merchant locations and countries in which you can use your credit card. Given that most payment networks do not provide worldwide coverage, you should check to see how much coverage your credit card affords.
Consider cash and debit cards.
Though the majority of your purchases abroad should be made with a credit card, you'll need some cash for cab fare and the few stores that inevitably don't accept plastic. Opening a low-foreign-fee debit card and making ATM withdrawals during your trip is the least expensive way to access cash, as the low exchange rate that applies to credit cards also applies to debit card transactions. If you'd rather not worry about finding an ATM as soon as you arrive in a foreign country, convert a small amount of cash at a local bank before you leave. In doing so, keep in mind the following tips:
Compare bank exchange rates. Currently, an 11.9% disparity exists between the exchange rates offered by the best and worst banks for currency conversion, according to Card Hub's study.
Watch out for fees. Some banks might charge shipping or processing fees, so make sure to inquire about extra charges before agreeing to a conversion.
Convert just the right amount. Convert enough cash to comfortably cover your initial expenses but not more than you feel comfortable carrying with you.
Consider these final tips.
Regardless of which debit or credit card you use while traveling overseas, it's important to:
Call your issuer before leaving. Make sure to notify your bank of the exact countries and territories where you'll be traveling. If you don't, your cards may be suspended for suspicion of fraud.
Avoid dynamic currency conversion. Merchants may offer to convert the price of a purchase from the local currency into U.S. dollars. While in most cases, this may be meant to help customers who aren't familiar with the exchange rate, some merchants offer dynamic currency conversion in order to apply an unfavorable exchange rate to a transaction and increase their profits. Luckily, avoiding this money-waster is as simple as declining any merchant overtures and making sure to only sign bills or receipts expressed in the local coin. And if you want to quickly translate a price into U.S. dollars, why not use your cell phone or any other device with a calculator?
Overseas travel is expensive, but it doesn't have to be unaffordable. As long as you make sure to carry a credit card without foreign fees, get the best possible exchange rate when converting cash, and avoid costly merchant tricks, a post-trip look at your bank account shouldn't result in any surprises.

House Bill 1671, An Act Relating to Improving Quality in Early Education and Care Through Center Child Care Providers, establishes a non-traditional union for an estimated 10,000 early childhood educators in more than 1,000 centers that either have state-funded contracts or serve children who receive state subsidies. The bill, the subject of a legislative hearing on Tuesday, Oct. 4, is aimed at helping early childhood educators get the pay and respect they deserve and, over time, will help close the achievement gap among students by recruiting and retaining highly qualified early education workers. Please ask your elected legislators to support this bill and urge the members of the Public Service Committee to favorably report it out of committee. Giving a voice to these educators will help them improve their profession and benefit the children in their care. Email your state representative and senator

I looked every where trying to find the specs behind these engine codes. The information I have is that it came out of a 1993 Caprice Police car. It has Vortec heads. The engine code that is stamped on the block reads V1210CJA and the numbers near where the casting numbers are suppose to read are in 2 dif spots but in the same area. They Read 50LG and L027. The numbers on the Intake manifold read GM 14101074 and the stamps behind the flywheel read 627 638 and on the sides of the block are stamped 627 upside down. I cant find any information on any of these numbers that match. Also, according to the nastyZ28.com website i was looking at there is no listing for the CJA suffix. Can anyone help me figure out what motor and specs this is? Plllllllleaaaassseeeee??? :P
It comes up as a 1988 305 180Hp 4brl carb. and from a camaro.
Professional hi-performance engine builderHorsepower sells Engines and torque wins races.
Oh and 1996 was the first year of the vortec.
Professional hi-performance engine builderHorsepower sells Engines and torque wins races.
Well i know its not a 305...im 100% positive its a 350 and it has vortec heads with the original intake manifold on it. Did any of the numbers match that you looked up? If so , do you have a link? Why isnt it coded like all the other gm small blocks ive seen? Is it possible its from a 1996 caprice? If thats the first year for Vortec heads. Cuz its def a vortec head with center bolts through the valve covers.
I want to start working on this motor to drop in my 84 Z28 with my 5 speed and 3.73 rear end, but i dont even know what it is yet O.o My friend bought the motor while it was still in a camaro, it was rebuilt and put in the camaro. He ended wasting the tranny to where it would only engage 2nd gear and the rear end was 16 in. off center, LOL so i scraped the car pulled the motor, and now it sits. Anxious to drop it in my Z28 and rip some pavement.
Well it seems to be a 305 the 50LG is actually 5.0LG and that means it is a 305 which is a 5.0litre.What is the block casting number on the back of the block.Also how many intake bolt holes is there on the heads 8 or 12.May be even list the head casting numbers.
Professional hi-performance engine builderHorsepower sells Engines and torque wins races.
There are no casting numbers on the heads. Maybe under the valve covers but not visable atm. But, there is 12 bolts to the intake and they are 11/16 bolts. Can u leave an e-mail and ill send you some pics of it. See if you see anything telling. Thats why i was saying, this thing isnt stamped like all the other small blocks ive seen. Where the block casting number is suppose to be it reads 50LG. And off to the side running verticle it reads L027.
Ok 12 bolts is non vortec if it had vortec heads there would only be 8 bolts.Yes the head casting numbers are under the valve covers.On the older blocks the casting numbers are on the driver side and on the newer model blocks some wear in the 80's they put them on the passenger side. Also the 627 on the side of the block is the last 3 numbers in the casting number and it is a 305 block I have one sitting on a engine stand that was also thought to be a 350 by one of my costumers.So yes you have a 305.Once you get the casting numbers if you want to check it out for your self you can go to www.chevymania.com
Professional hi-performance engine builderHorsepower sells Engines and torque wins races.
Thanks for all the info man, i appreciate it. Kinda sucks tho. My guess is im better off using the 305 out of my 84 Z28 H.O. and slapping this 600 edelbrock on it and calling it a day.But, the car isnt getting any power. Is this a ignition switch problem? Or you think the main fusebox blew? Cuz the power windows work and the seats move with the electric motor. And the headlights work. But not getting any interior lights,sounds. And its dead when you turn the key. I traced down the fuseable links and checked them all and its all live until it comes into the cab.Thanks again!
Your welcome,Ya the 1984 will be cheaper if you deside to rebuild it be cause it is a 2piece seal block and the 627 is a one piece seal and cost more.If you need a good combo that will produce decent power for a 305 chevy build then let me know.For your electrical question I really do not know that much about auto electrical system so I can't answer that for sure.No problem.anything else just ask.
Professional hi-performance engine builderHorsepower sells Engines and torque wins races.
Hi, I have a 305 5.0LG, it was pulled from an 88 caprice classic. I am wanting to find the year of the motor and was told that the M093627 could tell me that, is this right? I also have another number and was wondering just what it is for, that number is L167. I would also like to know if there is a different style of valve covers between the 305 and the 350 and if so could you explain. I want to rebuild this engine and drop it in my 86 GMC sierra. The engine is a memorial to my step son who past away recently and I really want to get it right the first time.
if the L167 is cast in positive on the block... looks like like this.. (/)L167(\) thats the julian date...break it up into segments..L is December the 12th month.. L is the 12th letter of the alphabet..16 is the 16th day of the month..7 is the year of the decade.. 67, 77, 87, but since your code is L167... its december 16 1987 for installation in 1988 model year cars and trucks..on the front passenger side .. in front of the head is a number sequence with a 2 or 3 digit suffix.. that whole code code denotes the application or emission specfication of the engine..on the back of the block.. drivers side above where the transmission bolts ON.. is the block casting number.. that and the julian date is how engine rebuilders identify what it is...88 should have center bolt valve covers...car and truck motors might use a slightly different timing cover.. because of different diameters of the harmonic damper.. the timing cover did change on cars when they went to the LT1 engines with OPTISPARK distributors.. this happened in probably 1991 or 1992 depending on the model.. and on 94/95 chevy trucks.. when they went to a plastic timing cover to mount the crank shaft position sensor.. the plastic timing cover vortec engines have a wider mounting surface that makes using the earlier blocks almost impossible to use in plastic timing cover vortec applications..
on a chevy 305 motor the timing chain and gears,where should the dots line up at? my book i have been reading is giving me two spots,camshaft sprocket is showin tdc by the intake,and sayin its #1 cylinder tdc,second one is showing bottom of camshaft pointin to the oil pan sayin #6 cylinder tdc. on my motor my camshaft dot is up towards the intake. on the crankshaft the dot is up facin the same direction. i had a compression test done on the motor and the gauge doesnt move out of the red box also need to no of any suggestion plz.
usually a sb chevy times with #6 piston at firing. the dot on the cam sprocket points down. the dot on the crank sprocket points up, so they point at each other.

ICE Agents: Morale is in the Toilet
Morale among Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents is at an all-time low more than a month after the Obama administration announced major changes to the nation's immigration enforcement policy, according to the head of a national agency representing thousands of agents.
"Morale is in the toilet right now," said Chris Crane, president of the National ICE Council. "Most of the guys out in the field are just in an uproar."
President Obama's policy allows the federal government to use "prosecutorial discretion" to allow younger illegal immigrants to stay in the country and get work permits. Critics called it backdoor amnesty, but the administration said it stops short of granting illegals citizenship.
"They call it discretion but it's not our discretion," Crane told Fox News. "We have no discretion."
Crane said a case involving a veteran ICE agent is a perfect illustration. The agent arrested an illegal who was not a "primary target." The agent's superior officers ordered the illegal released – even though he did not meet the criteria listed by the Dept. of Homeland Security.
The officer refused to follow orders and is now facing a three day suspension. The 35-year-old illegal immigrant with ten traffic violations was released.
He pointed to another case in El Paso where an illegal immigrant injured an ICE agent during an attempted escape. Again, Crane said, because the individual was not a priority target, he was released without any charges being filed.
An ICE spokesman did not return calls for comment.
"They've got their heads down," Crane said, referring to ICE agents. "We feel like the administration is against us and not the people who are violating our laws."
According to a survey conducted by bestplacestowork.org, ICE is ranked 222 out of 240 with a workplace score of 52.5.
Crane said he is not surprised.
"We can't do anything anymore under these new guidelines," he said.

Pit firing with steel wool...

I got Sumi von Dassow's book on pit firing (Low Fire and Burnishing) and I'm near ready to do my first. Most of my pieces will be white earthenware. I'd like to try to get some of the effects shown in the pot below. The ingrediants are listed as wood shavings, steel wool, copper and salt. From the blue tones, I suspect some cobalt compound was also used, but my question here is, What produced the red/orange tones on the top? Copper? Steel wool? Both? Thanks.
Posted 08 October 2012 - 05:33 PM
The image is a sagger fired piece by Charlie and Linda Riggs. Shoot them an email and ask. http://www.sandhills...gs-pottery.html My guess is the top orange is from strands of copper wire. The bluish on the bottom is likely from the other items included in the sagger reacting with the terra sig surface on the vessel . . . I don't believe they add any cobalt compounds.
Posted 08 October 2012 - 05:43 PM
Linda and Charlie were with myself and Steve Branfman as presenters at Dan Finch's Workshop, Raku Masters back in 2004 or so. Linda and Charlie make those beautiful pieces in saggars fired in a raku kiln. The orange is from steel wool.They are very giving with their information. They fire to about 1600 F and hold for 20 minutes or so. pots are raised out of the combustibles inside the saggars which a sealed. They also put copper carbonate and salt mixed into the sawdust.The surface is burnished with terra sig prior to bisque. charlie has a great and simple terra sig recipe.

There's no "fun" if an "artist" is taking legitimate work from someone else and recycling it as their own work. That's wrong and unoriginal, period. There are plenty of ways to create an homage to Batman without making it look like a straight comic book cover rip off.
It has nothing to do with the so-called popularity of the artist. I don't know ramyb from Adam. And no, it's not "reality" that all of us love him. Personally, I've seen one shirt design of his that I liked. The rest is less than impressive, honestly. But that's just my opinion, and we all know what opinions are like.

No matter what one's opinion on Ramy is (I congratulate him for his success and his ability to market to his audience), pulling the 'YOU JES JEALOUS' card when someone brings forth criticism, even biting criticism, is just as, if not more childish and immature. One can dislike something for numerous reasons.
I also doubt the people who don't submit designs at all are THAT jealous of, er...Ramy having designs print? ;)

Re: 1989: Insanity
Besides just being a picture of Batman, which really is opening the site to a whole world of litigation since it's a for-profit enterprise, this design doesn't even really have much to do with the topic at hand.
Yes, Burton's Batman came out in 1989, but this image doesn't seem informed by that version of the character in any meaningful way. It's just a picture of Batman, as generic as possible, with nothing that would really clue a viewer in to the fact that it's meant to be an homage to the particular year that Batman was released in theaters.

I'm not voting on it. But the problem is that people ARE voting on it despite the theft. And that this submission is still here despite theft.

STOP STEALING Potty Emergency! is not rude or insulting. It's common sense.
>>But in reality we all love his work and we all vote for it, which is why he is ALWAYS in the fog and constantly getting shirts printed.
We love his work? NOPE. I don't. It's too simple, there's no artistic merit in his cookie cutter designs, and the only reason it gets votes from people not in his thrall is because he banks in on other people's IP. Zelda, Star Wars, Batman, something else made famous by the original creators. It's rare to see him submit a design that's not riding on someone else's thunder. He's profiting off of the creation of other people and it's that's bad.
>>How about the artist keeps doing his thing and YOU guys take a week off of commenting. Maybe it'll give you time to get over your petty jealously and insistent need to complain about everything.
Nope. I'm a customer, I have every right to offer feedback. Not every comment has to be BEST SHIRT EVAR.
>>As for the actual shirt, it's a great image, very well done. However, I can see it still getting into trouble, even with the edits.
No it's not. He had to butcher it and make it not-really-look-like-Batman to submit it at all. It's still blatant theft. There's no artistic merit in that and nothing to be proud of when it comes to stealing another's character and design.

They probably also meant the comments that woot has deleted twice that were just attacks on the artist and not actually opinions on the shirt and its merit or lack there of.
The really disappointing thing is that Ramy has had a pretty good streak of well-done, on-theme, rule-abiding designs. I'll admit I think the design itself is pretty cool. While technically it's on-theme, it's only barely so. This would be a more appropriate subject for an artist 50 years older than Ramy. And the obvious use of IP. There's no spin on Batman here: it's just Batman. Putting a few scratches in the ears doesn't change that.
Great Job Pepe! I will buy one!

Re: 1978: Children of the Cabbage
Awesome design!!
Re: 1981: MTV is here
Really cool! I think the text might be a little too weathered but I like your "M" TV.
Re: 1939 the big bat was born
So exactly what year were you born?
Re: 1985
I love these movies to death!
Re: 1980 - Gopher Strikes Back RESUB
Oh! I just noticed the little details in the background! Nice touches!
I. Must. Have. This.
Absolutely fantastic idea from a very under-rated movie! GMV!
even though this is still recognizably batman, i like the design. it's dark and haunting. the glow and color of the moon are beautiful. i can see this one being rejected because of the whole batman thing, but i'm still happy ramyb decided to share it with us. i hope the other people who have commented on this design recognize that ramyb seems to put a lot of character into his designs (and no, i'm not part of the so-called "ramyb fan club". i don't even look at the designers names when i vote. i vote for the designs i would like to wear regardless of who designed it). ramyb says in his first comment that he has been dealing with some loss this week, and based on the darkness and character in this design, i can definitely believe it.

I like the image, but it is to square and hard in the edges for my taste.
A bit more blurred in the edges, and maybe a more round shape, and I'd consider buying it.
Re: 1997: The legend begins
Well, regardless of how similar the shirt looks to other shirts, I'm more surprised by the fact that someone was born in '97 and was able to use this as a theme. I feel ancient now. Was in 7th grade by the time they got to the US...
I do like it! Very creative and nice result.
Nice shirt idea. One of my favorite authors. I love his robot stories. Have you read his autobiography, "I. Asimov"? It's a fascinating read.
so the designer is...72/73 years old?

I have not. I'm really starting to get back into his works. My grade school library had a decent selection of his non-fiction works, but I have not read much of his since then.
Re: 1997, first died
Wait, were you born in 1997 or 1984?

I can watch the stove temp, and open the baro up all the way and still have heat going up the chimney as there is no rise in stove temp. Always had one on my wood stove and when you closed it, the heat stayed in the stove. My chimney has enough draft to suck a small child up it, you can go outside on these cool mornings and see the heat coming out of the chimney. I see no down side as long as I put it before the baro.

Seems to be working, but I'm still noticing a little yo yoing in temperature on the furnace. With these cold days, my baro is nearly wide open, sucking room air up the chimney and the draft is still too strong.. Seems like a better place for the MPD would be after the baro in these cases, but I realize that can be dangerous too.. Does anyone run a MPD after the baro to have better control of the draft?? Seems like this would be perfect case as to not suck so much room air up the chimney which in turn causes severe air infiltration from outside...

My Herold burns, with the two bottom air vents closed at 600-650 degrees for 11-14 hours, I have the firepot with a 1" refractory cement. I've burned in all weather conditions, with my Herold 116 in high winds, fog, heavy snow, no wind, 55 degree weather and with -13 degree weather and never, never have I had an issue where my stove mysteriously ran away. Or went out or pumped CO into the house. I have smoke detectors and CO detectors and they never go off. I change batteries every 6 months...the whole common sense thing... It's like your trying to use scare tactics to ward off newcomers with questions. First and foremost, if your stove is in proper working condition you can control airintake...if you can't get one that can...get yours rebuilt but don't blame a MPD for a stove issue. I've never heard of anyone with a good hand fired stove have it run away. Generations of people used them without issue. My grandparents have told me hundreds of stories, not one of them started with boy I wish I had a baro dampener..You cannot drive your car forever...you need routine maintainence. Every stove needs it too. To say MPDs are unsafe is just wrong...there is more than one way to do something, because its not your way doesn't make it wrong. Heating oil killed the coal stove. Spend some money, get a quality stove, if there is problem fix it or have someone else do it. If your stove is working properly, your MPD will work fine...I have two, all old antique, not new crap, and I burn coal so I don't worry about creosote...baro dampeners are more problematic with creosote than MPD. if I sound pissed its because I am...your comments are offensive to those that carefully choose good quality stoves and MPD's, like we are wreckless. I spent a lot of money and had a friend of Emery build me a stove. He didnt' cut corners and neither did I. Also, I professionally installed the stack and did everything right. To imply that I'm unsafe because I use a MPD is bullcrap. Trying to be nice because I'm new to the board but I feel like your trying to bully people into doing it one way. I did alot of research before buying and having my herold restored. All the experts said that you need a MPD not a baro. These guys know there stuff and they say that baro's won't allow a hand fired antique stove to run. I live in Michigan where we get heavy snow, winds off the lake and every weather imaginable. Burned either wood or coal now for two decades and my MPD has never failed me. I buy quality stoves and have them installed correctly and run smoke detectors and CO detectors. I'm not unsafe period.

UniKey has announced integration of its keyless entry technology with hospitality door locks from MIWA Lock Company. The Smartphone based touch-to-open technology will be integrated with MIWA's flagship ALV2 System and was showcased to the hotel industry visitors at HITEC 2014.
By uniquely combining existing technologies, UniKey has developed a proprietary Touch-to-Open™ Passive Keyless Entry system that will be integrated into MIWA's existing radio frequency identification (RFID) hospitality lock solutions, providing unparalleled convenience for hotel guests. This solution transforms the hotel check-in experience enabling hotel guests to gain quick and easy access to their hotel room with just a touch of the finger, eliminating the hassle of front desk check-in or the fumbling of locating a hotel card key at their room.
UniKey developed a background mobile application and lock hardware electronics that enables an electronic key on a compatible smartphone to control access to the hotel locks using Bluetooth technology. Hotel properties and chains will be able to integrate this functionality into their own app and PMS. Like passive key technology now available in many cars, the joint solution from MIWA and UniKey identifies hotel guests as they approach the door, allowing them to gain access to the hotel room with just a simple touch of the lock, without removing the smartphone from their pocket or bag.
Today, UniKey powers the only keyless Bluetooth residential door lock on the market, Kevo, in partnership with Kwikset.

Hi all,
I have a little question, but I don't wish to start a whole new topic just to get this one little question answered. Plus, I have noticed that often this is just what happens, in that an entire topic is created with it's primary aim being the location of a particular sutta, or saying, etc. Once that question is answered, the topic becomes kind of redundant...maybe it would help keep things a bit more clear, and unclogged as it were, if there was a dedicated 'Q & A' message board, where anyone just joins in with a question, and anyone who cares to, answers it? It could be moderated, to ensure that the answers are in accordance with Doctrine, etc. That way, the 'little questions' are dealt with quickly, without needing a whole topic created which quickly sinks down into oblivion and disuse, leaving the creation of entire topics for the 'big questions', that is, anything to which there will be either 1.more than one possible answer, or 2.various points of view involved. One more thing, there could be a system whereby once a message has been satisfactorily answered, the person who asked it could indicate this on the original posting (that they made), so that mods don't have yet another thing to tie up their time with (I'm quite sure that the mods here are not reimbursed for what they do, so I don't wish to add to their workload!). The onus of saying, 'thank you, my question has been answered now' could be on the person who asked the question.
Anyway...my little question is, I remember reading this verse Buddha said, something like this: "look at the world, seeing permanence in the impermanent, beauty in the un-beautiful,...' (etc)or something like that, but I cannot find it anywhere! Does anyone recognize this?

Comments about oreilly Windows PowerShell Pocket Reference, 2nd Edition:
I am new to powershell and I was hoping this would be a concise guide to commands and cmdlet information. It seemed to be missing information Add-Member -NotePropertyName and -NotePropertyValue information.I should have checked what version of powershell it covered.I think that a newer version covering current versions of powershell would be good.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

So I am waiting for parts to do a TBE install and front sway bar. I've been looking around and cannot find a good diy on how to lift your car. Using jacks or ramps. I think this should be a sticky somewhere but I have yet to find it. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Or post some good practices? I just want to be safe and I want to know of possible problems. Thanks in advance.

Modest GHC Proposals
From HaskellWiki
There are many many proposals to augment GHC (and Haskell) that would be valuable yet languish because they have not be documented / collected anywhere aside from persisting in the Mailing lists.
Such proposals are things, typically, that would be uncontroversial and welcomed, but which no core GHC developers have free cycles to work on.
Proposals are suitable for this page if they do not require deep changes to GHC, though they may still be nontrivial, and which ghc-hq is likely to merge in when there is a strong community consensus and well-written patch is on hand.
Many but not all of these may be associated with feature request tickets on the ghc trac: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/query?status=new&status=assigned&status=reopened&type=feature+request&order=priority
1 Expanded Deprecated Pragma
The current pragma can attach to modules or top level entities including functions, classes, and types.
It cannot attach to exports (i.e. if we wish to not deprecate "foo" but only its reexport from module Bar).
It also cannot attach to methods within classes.
There are other possible things we may wish to deprecate as well. Expanding this pragma would make certain changes to libraries more tractable and easily managed.
2 Records and Modules
Yitzchak Gale's nested modules proposal l which would address one of the larger warts with the current module system and records while adding essentially no complexity to the GHC internals. (i.e. no changes would be needed to GHC beyond the parsing phase possibly, so an easy changeto experiment with )
3 Pattern Synonyms

Plate Size & Childhood Obesity
While I have been trying to change up my eating habits a bit and talking to patients about trying some new foods, I came upon an interesting study in the journal Pediatrics.
The hypothesis for the study, which was done among school children in Philadelphia, was "can smaller plates promote age-appropriate portion sizes in children?".
There have been previous studies in the adult literature that have shown that dish ware size influences self-serve portion sizes and caloric intake. Whether the same conclusions with children were true had yet to be examined, but it does make sense that it might.
So, the hypothesis was correct and when children were given larger bowls, plates and cups, they served themselves larger portions and in turn more calories. In the study, 80% of the children served themselves more calories at lunch when using adult-size plates and bowls.
This is really great news, in that by changing the size of the plate we might be able to affect a child's portion size without them even really being aware!
I remember that our kids all had children's bowls, plates and cups that they loved to use and eventually they either broke, got lost, or we just decided to have everyone eat off of the same plates. But, maybe it would make more sense to continue to have our children use child sized plates until they reach puberty? Certainly seems that it wouldn't hurt and if schools did the same thing we might be able to impact some of the obesity problem by just changing one behavior. It is definitely worth trying!

Big data gurus have said that data quality isn't important for big data. Good enough is good enough. However, business stakeholders still complain about poor data quality. In fact, when Forrester surveyed customer intelligence professionals, the ability to integrate data and manage data quality are the top two factors holding customer intelligence back.
So, do big data gurus have it wrong? Sort of . . .
I had the chance to attend and present at a marketing event put on by MITX last week in Boston that focused on data science for marketing and customer experience. I recommend all data and big data professionals do this. Here is why. How marketers and agencies talk about big data and data science is different than how IT talks about it. This isn't just a language barrier, it's a philosophy barrier. Let's look at this closer:

AMES, Iowa – Calling all campers, aged 14 to 18. The Iowa 4-H Center plans to host two wilderness trips this summer, says Abbie Parker, program specialist at the Iowa 4-H Center near Madrid.
"The wilderness trips offer a challenge to teenagers," Parker said. "The trips are unique opportunities that combine wilderness travel, outdoor skill development, teamwork, environmental learning and personal growth."
Trained volunteer adults who bring skills and knowledge to the experience will lead the trips.
Two trips are planned for this summer:
Scholarships and stipends are available to help offset the costs. Register online at the Iowa 4-H Center website.
For more information on the wilderness trips, contact Abbie Parker at 515-795-3338.
About the Iowa 4-H Center
The Iowa 4-H Center was founded in 1949 by the Iowa 4-H Foundation. By 1952, the first campers stayed overnight in Elm Village.
The center consists of more than 1,100 acres of woodlands, meadows, wetlands and fields in the heart of the Des Moines River Valley. Outdoor education is an important component of the 4-H program. Faculty and staff of Iowa State University Extension and Outreach 4-H Youth Development create and lead programs year-round at the 4-H Center. The facilities are available year-round for use by individuals, families, groups or organizations.
The 4-H Center has 360 beds among five villages and is available for anyone to rent anytime. 4-H membership is not required to use the facilities. Staff employed by Iowa State University lead summer camps and seasonal programs in team challenge, outdoor camping, environmental education, shooting sports and recreation.
