Men's Basketball Opens Great Alaska Shootout Thursday Night
By: Andrew Gavin (@GBGavin)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) – Returning to Anchorage 20 years later, the Green Bay men's basketball program opens the Great Alaska Shootout on Thanksgiving Night against Pepperdine at 8:30 p.m. CT. The game will be televised nationally by CBS College Sports Network with Brent Stover (play-by-play) and Pete Gillen (analyst) on the call.
The program previously competed in the 1993 Great Alaska Shootout, going 1-2 with a victory over North Carolina State and close losses against a Glenn Robinson led Purdue squad and a Wake Forest team which featured Tim Duncan.
Green Bay began its 2013-14 season with just three games spaced out on three consecutive Saturdays. Now, the Phoenix will play three games in three days beginning on Thursday night. Green Bay will face either Harvard or Denver on Friday before concluding the eight-team tournament on Saturday.
The Phoenix heads to Anchorage after a dominating 92-57 victory over Minnesota Duluth on Saturday night. Junior Keifer Sykes (Chicago, Ill.) scored 21 points while senior Alec Brown (Winona, Minn.) recorded a triple-double with 15 points, 10 rebounds and 10 blocked shots and was named the Horizon League Player of the Week on Monday.
G – #24 Keifer Sykes, G, Jr., 5-11, 175
G – #5 Lamin Fulton, G, Jr., 5-10, 175
F – #4 Jordan Fouse, F, So., 6-7, 225
F – #15 Greg Mays, F, Jr., 6-9, 222
C – #21 Alec Brown, C, Sr., 7-1, 235
LIVE COVERAGE: For fans who are unable to watch Thursday's game on CBS College Sports, a radio broadcast of the contest will be available on WNFL 1440 AM and GreenBayPhoenix.com (live audio) with Matt Menzl (play-by-play) and Andrew Gavin (analyst) on the call.
INSIDE THE SERIES: Green Bay and Pepperdine have met once previously, with Green Bay winning 57-49 at Brown County Arena on Dec. 30, 1996. Pepperdine and Indiana State (Green Bay leads 2-1) are the only teams in the field that the Phoenix has ever faced.
THIRD TRIPLE-DOUBLE: Brown's triple-double was the third in the program's history, and the first accomplished by someone other than Javier Mendiburu, who recorded the first two triple-doubles during the 2004-05 and 2005-06 seasons. Brown became the first Green Bay player and the first player in Horizon League history to post a triple-double including blocked shots.
CENTURY CLUB: Thursday's game will mark the 100th game of head coach Brian Wardle's career as a head coach and in the career of Alec Brown. Wardle will be looking to even his coaching record at 50-50. Brown has started 98 of 99 career games in a Phoenix uniform and has totaled 1,245 points, 648 rebounds and 229 blocked shots. Brown is a two-time All-Horizon League selection and a Preseason All-Horizon League first-team pick this year.
MID-MAJOR POLL: Green Bay has vaulted up to No. 15 in the CollegeInsider.com Mid-Major Poll after holding steady at No. 21 for the first three polls. Three other teams from the field of the Great Alaska Shootout are in the poll, including Harvard (No. 4), Indiana State (No. 6) and Denver (No. 16) all represented in the poll.
BLOCK PARTY: Green Bay comes to Anchorage as the nation's top shot-blocking team at 10.33 blocks per game. Senior Alec Brown had 10 rejections against Minnesota Duluth and is averaging 4.7 blocks per game. Sophomore Jordan Fouse has blocked three shots in each game this season. The Phoenix has erased at least nine shots against its first three opponents.
WINNING WEEKLY: Senior Alec Brown was named the Horizon League Player of the Week on Monday for the second time in his career. The 7-foot-1 Brown became the second-straight Phoenix player to win the conference's weekly award after junior Keifer Sykes won on Nov. 18. Brown and Sykes are the first Phoenix teammates to win in back-to-back weeks since Ryan Tillema and Troy Cotton in 2008-09.
HANDFUL OF HARDWARE: The fifth career Horizon League Player of the Week honor for Sykes ties him for the most in Green Bay history with Jeff Nordgaard. He also ranks tied for 12th in conference history, with former Detroit star Rashad Phillips holding the record with 10. The point guard won the award once as a freshman and three times in 2012-13.
SPACED START: Green Bay played only two times through the first 14 days of the season, tied for the fewest for any team in the country. Only three teams (North Dakota, Weber State, Denver) waited longer before playing their third game. The Phoenix was slated to play twice on opening weekend before the HBCU Tip-Off Championship was cancelled.
COMPETE, DEFEND, REBOUND: This signature Brian Wardle philosophy was on full display in 2012-13 for the Phoenix. In Horizon League play, Green Bay led the conference in rebounding margin, field goal percentage defense and blocked shots. So far this season, Green Bay is carrying over the mantra. Green Bay holds a plus-7.3 rebounding margin, is blocking 10.33 shots per game, and its three opponents have combined to shoot just 33.9 percent from the field.
IN A LEAGUE OF HIS OWN: Brown opened this season in select company as the nation's only active player with 1,200-plus points, 600-plus rebounds and 200-plus blocks. Brown is only the second player in HL history to accumulate those numbers and is on pace to be the first league player to finish his career with 1,500 points, 750 rebounds and 250 blocks.
CLOSE TO A GRAND: With 937 career points, Sykes is closing in on becoming the program's 26th member of the 1,000-point club. He is on pace to reach 1,000 points faster than all but two players in the program's Division I history – Tony Bennett (56 games) and Richard Sims (68). Only five players in program history at any level have scored more points through 67 games than Sykes. Transfer Ray Willis (1969-71) was the fastest player to reach 1,000 points, doing so as a junior and senior in a remarkable 39 games.
BROKEN RECORD: Green Bay and Wisconsin played in front of a program record 9,906 fans last Saturday night. The sellout crowd marked the fourth time that a Phoenix men's basketball team had played in front of 9,000-plus fans at home.
CAREER NIGHT: Keifer Sykes totaled 30 or more points for the third time in his career with a career-high 32 against No. 20/19 Wisconsin. Sykes has now reached 30 or more points in two of his past four games, has 13 20-point games and has reached double figures in 14 consecutive games and 31 of his past 33 contests. The point guard also set career highs for field goals made (13) and attempted (26).
STREAKING SOPHOMORE: Jordan Fouse opened the 2013-14 by extending two impressive statistical streaks. The 6-foot-7 sophomore wing has blocked at least one shot in 26-straight games after swatting three in each of the first two games. The reigning rebounding champion has also grabbed five or more boards in 22 consecutive games. Fouse is leading the Horizon League in both rebounding (10.3/game) and is second in blocked shots (3.0/game) behind teammate Alec Brown.
FLYING PHOENIX: Through three games, Green Bay has totaled 12 dunks with five different players recording at least one dunk. Including a career-high three dunks last Saturday, 5-foot-11 point guard leads the team with six dunks. In his career, junior Greg Mays has a team-best 36 dunks while senior Alec Brown has 35 career dunks.
BROWN'S BLOCKS: Alec Brown's 10 blocks against Minnesota Duluth were one shy of his program and Horizon League record 11, set on Jan. 14, 2012 against Wright State. Brown has the top-three single-game block totals in program history and six of the top-11. With 229 career blocks, Brown ranks second all-time in Horizon League history (YSU's Damian Eargle-309). Brown has 97 more blocks than any other Phoenix player in history and holds the blocks records for game (11), season (89) and career (229). He has blocked at least one shot in 84 of his 99 career games. With Brown on the roster, Green Bay has broken the program's single-season team record for blocks in each of the past three seasons.

If you are a high-income wage earner, you should have your tax preparer estimate your 2013 income tax liability. Several new taxes on unearned income (capital gains and dividends), the new phaseout of itemized deductions and the Medicare earned income tax may result in a significantly higher income tax liability for 2013.
If you were 70½ or older in 2013, make sure you have completed your required minimum distribution for 2013. Also, if you have an inherited IRA, regardless of age, you may be required to take a minimum distribution.

After spending 12 days in Mesquite, Nev., we recently returned to the Salt Lake Valley. As we drove over Point of the Mountain, my wife, Nancy, said she could smell the pollution.
I suspect that, like many Wasatch Front residents, I used to not think much about these inversions and the red air warnings the state issued. The valley looked awful and smelled bad, but could breathing really be that affected by the pollution?
It's funny how quickly your perspective can change.
I began to worry about the pollution when a co-worker of many years came down with a serious lung condition. I noticed that on bad inversion days, his cough was worse than normal.
Then my granddaughter who lives in Flagstaff, Ariz., and suffers from severe asthma would come to visit. My daughter commented that the inversions and pollution made her daughter's breathing that much more difficult.
A few years ago, I began experiencing shortness of breath. At first, my doctor and I attributed it to me being overweight. But the condition began to worsen, no matter what I did. Even walking up the stairs to my home office caused me to gasp for air.
A sleep specialist prescribed supplemental oxygen, especially when I slept. Then a lung specialist tested me. We tried some medications with little relief. I developed a nasty cough. Walking became an often painful chore.
Having climbed many of the Wasatch peaks and hiked all over the world, I was disgusted with myself for putting on the weight and falling out of shape. It never occurred to me that the pollution I could see and smell in the valley might be a contributing factor.
I purchased my own oximeter. Oxygen saturation is not supposed to dip below 90. Mine often hit the low 80s and even the mid-70s when I trudged up to my 47th-row seats at Rice-Eccles Stadium. Those low readings, I'm told, can be dangerous.
So I went back to the lung specialist. After a test that showed my lungs were operating at 46 percent of capacity and had deteriorated badly from the last test six months earlier, I was diagnosed with asthma, a disease I didn't think you could get at my age.
I can tell when the air quality is bad because it becomes even more difficult to get enough oxygen. These inversions now seem much more than an ugly inconvenience.
The question is what we can do, collectively and personally, to improve the air quality in a place where the climate and geography make solving the problem difficult.
I purchased a low-emission hybrid car in 2003. I drive it almost exclusively in the city. My "road" and "camp" vehicle is a 2006 pickup, another vehicle with a better-than-average emissions record. When my job and editor allow it, I also choose to telecommute more, which means working from home. I need a car for work most days, but I often opt to use TRAX to get around downtown or attend cultural events.
I honestly think Wasatch Front counties are headed to California-type laws where only certain types of vehicles can be sold and emissions inspections are even stricter than those we already have.
Collectively, we need to work to do everything possible to encourage industries such as Kennecott Utah Copper and the oil refineries north of Salt Lake City to eliminate as much pollution as possible.
It's unrealistic to shut down refineries that produce about 97 percent of the gasoline Utahns use or to put several thousand Kennecott workers on the unemployment lines. Call me a naïve optimist, but I think many of the refineries and the copper operation honestly try to eliminate as much pollution as possible. I hope they will be good corporate citizens and put the best pollution-elimination technology available in place. If it costs us more at the pump or when we buy copper products, so be it.
In a free society, I don't know how you force companies to do the right thing and individuals to make personal daily decisions for the common good.
This much I do know. The year-round inversion in the Salt Lake Valley seems to be getting worse, and it's a threat to many of us with breathing issues.

Old bogie
On this forum, you are like "Doc Vette" for engines. Your explanations are comprehensive, and right on point. I can't think of a more appropriate compliment, nor one more deserved. Thanks for sharing you wisdom, and your knowledge.
|Caprice Sleeper
|Thanks for the help guys
Gen I blocks all cool in the "normal" way of the pump introducing coolant into the front of the casting where it floods around the cylinder walls, then flows through passages into the heads. From the front of the heads it is gathered into a passage on the front of the intake manifold and returned to the radiator from the thermostat housing via a hose. This covers SBCs from 1955 to 1995 and G30 vans to 96. For the years 1955 through 1986 the SBC drove accessories including the water pump with V-belts, these rotate the water pump in the same clockwise direction as the crankshaft turns when viewed from the engine front. This is considered conventional pump rotation. In 1987 the SBC went to supporting the accessories on castings that bolt to the front of the engine in place of the sheet metal brackets previously used and with this change the multiple V-belt drive system was replaced with a single serpentine belt. The serpentine belt runs under the water pump pulley instead of over it as with the V-belt, this rotates the water pump in the opposite counter-clockwise direction to the V-belted engines. This also effects the fan blade pitch direction where the pump driven fan is used. These are considered to be reverse direction pumps not to be confused with the LT1, 4, and L99 reversed coolant flow.
One has to step around the pump rotation direction carefully when it comes to aftermarket serpentine belt systems some designs drive the pump with the belt passing over instead of under the pump pulley. These over the pulley type serpentine set-ups need to use the conventional drive direction (clockwise) pump.
|TBI was still standard flow, but because of the serpentine system, the pump pulley rides on the back side of the pulley, and that's why they need to be reverse rotation. If your doing a Vortec head swap, then your all good. Pulley system and everything is fine
|Caprice Sleeper
Coolant flow?
I have not been able to find any solid info on this subject. Is a 1990 305 TBI car engine with a factory roller cam a reverse coolant flow engine? The water pump is a reverse rotation design but does that mean the heads get coolant flow first? I want to make sure if I bolt on my 906 vortecs it won't overheat. I would think if my serpentine belt water pump is not compatible with the vortecs then I can just install the correct water pump and belt setup. Any clarity on the subject would be a great help. I will be running an edelbrock 2116 intake and a carb.
Thanks everyone,

Jayne Ludlow was one of the driving forces behind a magnificent season for Arsenal Ladies.
With Faye White troubled by a knee injury, Jayne took the armband for the business end of the campaign as the Ladies shrugged off the loss of a number of senior players to win a domestic treble.
In this exclusive two-part interview, the Welsh midfielder reflects on a rollercoaster 2008/09 campaign.
Part one
Jayne on losing so many key players, failing to make a mark in Europe, the shadow of the United States professional league, taking on extra responsibility as a senior player and captain, and winning the first trophy at the League Cup Final
Part two
Jayne on the character of the squad, Arsenal's incredible record in FA Cup Finals, that title decider at Everton, the incredible buzz it gave her, celebrating after the game, and the challenge facing Arsenal next season

in the past 7 years, and 7 demon carbs purchased, 6 of the 7 have had issues (debris inside, idle feed circuits too big, etc) and 1, the ONLY road demon i bought, worked out of the box (minor tuning, of course). all in all, once all of the issues are worked out, the carb ran very good, if not, better than most holleys i've ever dealt with. there's a lot of information about people's findings with barry grant's carbs on this forum... all you need to do is search for it!
my 0.02
I had the same problems tuning my carb...one question I have is...what type of intake is it?...and are you running a spacer and what type if you are?...I was running a single-plane intake and an open spacer...this made the demon run like *** when my 650 dp holley ran ****...so these are key questions in the tuning process of the carb for sure...good luck...ps when I took the thing apart...I had all kinds of flashing and metal in the circuitry...so I would def. rip it down and look for that type of stuff too...once we put a "cloverleaf" spacer in and cleaned all the metal out of it...we vaccum tuned it and it ran mint ever since!!!
|Mad Maggot
LOL @ the religious metaphor
There's quite a few reasons why you could be getting an off-idle stumble, Demons seem to be more prone to this. It's probably in need of some tuning. What engine/tranny/carb size/gear ratio do you have? I know that a heavy car with an auto tranny and highway gears can have a stumble with just about any carb, sometimes the squirters and pump cam need to be adjusted to cover this up.
Does the car idle well? Does it run smoothly at 1200-1500 RPM, or is there a constant lean condition (white smoke, choppy sound) at these RPM? Are your butterflies set to the proper positions? If it idles well, and runs well at a constant RPM, but hesitates or stumbles only when accelerating, then it's likely in need of some squirter/pump cam tuning.
I don't claim to be a carb wizard, but I've tuned my fair share. Here's a few great guides that can help with further tuning (written by experts, of course). They talk about tuning Holleys, but Demons work in pretty much the same way.
http://www.holley.com/data/TechServi...ech%20Info.pdf - This one needs Adobe Acrobat
Thanks for the info.
Good to hear that your demon has cast away it's demons. he he.
Mine is still possesed. I did check the new gaskets visually, and I can't see anything at all wrong with them. I have even seen where Tech@BG has posted that the gaskets are interchangeable. A smart forethought in the design no doubt.
Maybe I'm going to the wrong people. I need an exorcist.
|Mad Maggot
Yes I managed to fix the problem by drilling out the two holes that should have been drilled from the factory. (Shown in the pictures above) It idles great and light acceleration is responsive but I still seem to have a hesitation when I punch it off the line. I haven't played with the squirters yet so I suspect that this should fix the problem, though I will probably need to go with the big 50cc pump. As for the problem you described, I noticed that when I put the metering block gaskets from a Holley and Demon together they don't always have the same hole alignment. I'm not sure if I mismatched models when I did this, but it wouldn't hurt to check if all the holes in your gaskets line up with the holes in your carb. Also don't forget to check if there are holes that are completely covered by the gasket. It's possible that something is blocked off and you are not getting the right amount of fuel.
Another thing to try is adjusting the butterfly positions on both the primary and secondary side. My experience with Demons has taught me they can be very finicky if they are not set just right.
Hello hello out there.
Just curious if this problem was ever fixed for you! I am having the same issues with a demon I just acquired from my neighbor. He was having an off idle stumble really bad like you've described.
He never did get it to work again on his car. Originally, the carb he worked well for him. THen I think he put new gaskets in and it has never been the same since. I did notice that the new gaskets are blue. Does this mean they are HOlley gaskets??? Will they work??
Any more help from BG TECH would be much appreciated.
THanks in advance for any help you can give!

Well, curiosity got the best of me, and I decided to take the carb apart and do a more thorough check of all the parts - against my better judgement seeing as how this carb is still under warranty. It's a damn good thing I did, Once I took off the metering blocks, I found metal shavings embedded in the metering block gasket where it mates to the main body, and some of those shavings came loose once the gasket was removed. The same thing happened to the secondary side as well. Come on, Barry Grant. I know you can do better than this - better give the quality control guys a smack upside the head. What if one of those shavings found it's way into a main bearing? ... ... It looks to me like they came from where the entrances to the main passages to the boosters in the main body were reamed out to make the funnel shape, as there was still some small shavings still not quite detached from there.
I had some time today so I got a hold of an air compressor and an air nozzle with a fine rubber tip, and went to work blasting all the passages with 120 PSI of compressed air, to make sure none of the metal shavings made it into any of the orifices. Once I was sure the metering blocks and main body were free from debris, I decided to have a look at the idle circuits to see if I could find anything that might be causing me trouble. At first I did not see anything wrong, so I decided to blow air through the jets to see where the fuel was able to go. It turns out after some deductive reasoning and some time blowing air and blocking various orifices with my finger that I could not get any air to come out of the orifice leading to the transfer slot or idle discharge port (the part that is regulated with the idle screw). I tried blowing air backward through this orifice and it would not go anywhere. This led me to believe there was no way for the fuel to get to the transfer slot or idle discharge port. I didn't seem to have this problem with the secondary side. After some looking, I discovered a potential problem with the primary metering block, as shown in the pictures I have attached.
The secondary metering block has a hole drilled in the orifice shown in the red circle, while the primary metering block does not. My guess is that the hole is supposed to be where the fuel goes from the main well into the idle circuit, and if that is the case, the entire fuel supply of the primary idle circuit is cut off. This would certainly explain my dead lean problems. I would appreciate it if you would confirm if this is in fact what is causing the problem. If so, I'm going to need a replacement metering block under warranty, unless there is some way I can drill the holes myself (though I don't have much confidence in my ability to be that intricate with a drill). I would also need a precision drill bit set to have the proper size hole, and that could be costly. Please inform me on how I should proceed.

Mad Maggot,
Sorry about that, I've been out of town. You've got a PM.
|Mad Maggot
I'm still hoping there's a way to fix this bugger, I'm not quite ready to give up on it yet
|Mad Maggot
Ok I checked for vacuum leaks with the carb cleaner, and there are no problems to be found. So now that that is rectified, I went ahead and performed those diagnostics you mentioned. First I set the idle so it was stable and not too rich, then pulled on the throttle until it went lean and wanted to die. Pumping the accelerator pump while not moving the throttle at this point definitely made a huge difference, it increased the RPM substantially and eliminated the sputtering, then after a couple seconds it returned to the dead lean state again. I also tried this starting from a higher RPM point and dropping the throttle to the lean condition, and it basically did the same thing. The wierd part is that plugging the air bleeds (the bigger ones on the outside) didn't really do too much to help the problem, although the best I could do plugging it was two small hex keys, so I doubt if I sealed the bleeds off entirely. The choke horn was in the way and I couldn't get my fingers to cover the holes too well. If I need to totally seal the bleeds to have an effect, I will come up with a better way to do this next time.
Also, I fixed the old 650 Holley that this Demon is replacing, and I put it back on for a bit and it worked great - so no vacuum leaks for sure. If for some reason I really need to get deep into the Demon to find the problem at least I have a backup so I can drive my car I bought a rebuild kit for the Holley and I still have two bowl gaskets and two metering block gaskets left over so if I need to tear into the Demon repeatedly I at least have backup gaskets.
Thanks for the help so far, and if there's any other suggestions please let me know.
|Tech @ BG
Mad Maggot,
I'm not wanting you to change the bleeds just yet, just to see if we can make a difference to the problem you're having. From there we can work with you to help dial the carburetor in.
|Mad Maggot
|Tech @ BG, thanks for the tips - I have not tried either of those diagnostic methods before and once I get some time probably tomorrow night (I'm very busy during the week) I'll let you know how it goes. The one thing that concerns me is that you mention playing around with the air bleeds, and since I have a Speed Demon instead of a Mighty Demon, the air bleeds can't be changed out, so I hope this doesn't turn out to be the problem. I already bought some carb cleaner and I will make sure I check for vacuum leaks prior to performing more carb diagnostics.
|Tech @ BG
Mad Maggot,
It sounds like all of the circuits are working, but not calibrated properly for what you're combination is needing since you're able to make changes that are at least changing the way the engine is responding.
Now that youve mentioned that you cant keep the engine at a steady RPM it should be easier to diagnose. Id bring the engine to whatever RPM you can keep it running at steady (say 2000) then lower the RPM. Now when the engine wants to die I want you to press on the accelerator pump arm without moving the throttle linkage. This is going to add fuel without changing the amount of air the engine sees and will confirm that you are too lean since it will help the engine to continue to run. If that is the case then take your fingers and cover the outside (idle) air bleeds in the front of the carburetor. This should add a bunch of fuel through the idle circuit and help get the engine to continue to run at this point. Where not looking to immediately fix the problem just yet, but to determine exactly whats causing it. You can even use a couple of tooth picks to plug up those bleeds for the moment to keep the engine running. Once we see what this does we can determine what direction we need to go to get this problem rectified.
As far as your vacuum question a simple way is to spray around the carburetor, and intake with some carburetor cleaner while you have the engine running. If there is a vacuum leak the engine tone, and RPM will change.
|Mad Maggot
|Oh, one more thing I should bring up, what is a good way to check for vacuum leaks on an engine? I know my engine was working great before I changed carbs, and I haven't touched anything BUT the carb, but over the last three and a half years my car has been a great example of Murphy's Law. I really can't rule out the possibility that a vacuum leak somehow formed by way of divine intervention or something.
|Mad Maggot
I did some more experimentation to follow the suggestions I have received here, and unfortunately the problem has not gone away.
I adjusted the screw on the primary accelerator pump arm so if the throttle blades move even just barely some fuel will come out of the squirters. It wasn't bad before but now I removed ALL the slack from the pump arm against the linkage. While I might notice a hair more responsiveness with a light throttle tip now, it still does not fix the dead lean condition once the pump shot has been used up - let me clarify this: It does not matter how long the pump shot is, if I tip the throttle gently and hold it there, so as to keep the engine revving at about 1200 RPM, it is dead lean and stays that way until I either gun it or the engine dies.
I played around with the timing, remembering my old setting, and just experimented with retarding and advancing the initial timing as well as the vacuum advance on the distributor. It seemed that my original settings are still about optimum for this new carb, because any change in the timing seems to make it run worse, especially if I advance it more.
As far as the mixture screws are concerned, I can have all four screws all the way out to the point where they are about to fall out of their holes, and the off idle lean problem still exists, although not quite as bad. It is able to run at 1200 RPM with the screws all the way out, but it is very choppy sounding and there is still white smoke from the exhaust.
I played with the butterflies a lot, starting with having the secondaries all the way closed and adjusting the idle from the primaries only, to having the primaries closed all the way and adjusting the idle with the secondaries, as well as pretty much every imaginable combination in between. My conclusion is that it doesn't seem to matter where the butterflies are, it still is not getting enough fuel off idle.
Also, I raised the primary float so high you can't see the top of the fuel level in the sight window, and it STILL is not getting enough fuel off idle. The idle itself is extremely rich where the exhaust burns my eyes and nose, but once I slowly increase the revs it goes dead lean, and this confuses me greatly.
I've never seen a carb to this day that has one single circuit that can't get enough fuel, while the rest of the circuits are fine I'm going try changing the primary jets from the stock 67's to some 74's I have in another carb here, just to see what the heck will happen. I know it will be rich as hell, but if the transition circuit is still lean after I do this then I will have to look again for a blockage or something that I may have missed before.
Tech @ BG, if you read this post, what would qualify a carb to be considered defective where it must be replaced under warranty? Does it have to be something obviously visually wrong with it such as a main body crack, or can a problem like I'm having be considered a possible defect? I've never had a problem with a Demon carb until this bugger came along. Heck, I briefly ran an 850 Mighty Demon double pumper on this same motor and it worked great, even being badly oversized, yet this 750 with vacuum secondaries is having these kinds of problems.

I don't know which should be considered more remarkable:
(Cross-posted to G+, but it's more of a definitive statement of views so it goes here too)
A recent instance of 「Wasted Talent」: here
I'm not normally the kind of person to post links to episodes of webcomics, but maybe I can spin this one into being about philosophical topics. It coincides with a recent XKCD(note 1): https://xkcd.com/1349/ , and together we can use them to approach three related topics: abstraction, framing, and deconstruction. In these two comics, the humour comes from choosing to look at a task (programming) from a very unusual frame, in particular one that's much more low-level than the one we normally use; the "typing in colours" and the "working with sand" are akin to a common flight of fancy from desperate programmers struggling against a deadline - we often quip that our job is to push bits around, and if only one could know some right sequence of keys to push that would generate a program (or program component) that meets the spec, one might meet a deadline that's looking like it's going to slip because .. well, we need to think and test a lot to actually work out the right code structure we need. Even though it's true that what divides us from being done is "just bits", what divides any person from being a great (and rich) novelist is "just words", or any person from being a great musical composer is "just notes"; the creative act is not that easy even if the physical motions are.
So, the terms. Abstraction is the layering of conceptual levels at which we might work with something, with the lower levels being a "zoomed in" view, the higher levels being a "big picture". Looking at humans at a high level of abstraction might have us seeing societies and their traits, at a lower level subcultures, at a lower level individual people, at a lower level organs, at a lower level yet cells, and at a lower level molecules, then atoms, and so on. In theory, most physical things have a common origin if you look low enough (although, interesting for epistemologically-focused people, we have a practical-world-outlook system where we don't know the root(note 1)). The further we get from reasonably physical areas of our abstractions from the universe, the more we're projecting meaning onto the universe (and treating things as pattern-object hybrids) ; does it make sense, for example, to include subcultures in our model? The question of whether conceptual objects in higher abstraction levels actually exist becomes fuzzy - not even necessarily empirically fuzzy, but philosophically fuzzy(note 3)
Framing is the act of wrapping around a set of relatively bare facts a set of ideas - metaphors, historical context, stories, other information, in order to suggest structure for (dealing with/thinking about) those bare facts. We may work with one framing (and this is easy to do; framing relieves the stress of not knowing how to think about something), or we may develop habits where we try to find multiple framings for the same relatively-bare-facts and compare/contrast them.
Deconstruction is a discourse-technique(note 4) in which one takes an existing framing, in whatever particular form it is exposed (a narrative? even a word?) and examines its roots enough that its hold is weakened; this works best on framings that have strong(note 5) competition or weak construction(note 5).
Abstraction and Framing have a complex relationship. One classic example is Margaret Thatcher's statement: "they are casting their problems on society and who is society? There is no such thing! There are individual men and women and there are families and no government can do anything except through people". Here Thatcher offers an argument(note 7) to deconstruct the notion of society, noting that is composed of individuals and asking us to give up on the higher-level of abstraction because the lower level is adequate. It is a kind of "there are no forests, there are only trees" type statement, but it has a certain force to it (note that I am not sympathetic to the statement, but it is a good example of this). Not all framings are physical-chain abstractions - in fact, only a few are. Looking at an attack as an isolated event or as part of a historical chain that involves recent other attacks the other way is a type of framing. Although we might decide to build abstractions higher up from a chain of events, building some conceptual object that encapsulates features we find common and salient about them, and possibly dividing them from similar-ish events that have a few differences. "Freedom fighter" versus "terrorist", perhaps? "Justified response" versus "atrocity"?
One of the features of society is that we have a seeming coherence between people in the concepts and language and framing we use to understand the world. We can communicate, usually, and we don't seem mentally that alien to each other; we trust that the fact that we're living in the same universe and seem to be speaking the same language makes sharing meaning between our mental world to be easy. One of the great difficulties between people is that this is not particularly true. There are many degrees of freedom in the concepts and frames we use to parse the world, and the people who think deeply about these things(note 8) rarely enough converse with enough depth or discipline to expose the deep differences that are inevitable when people build meaning alone (or in subsets of society). Some people have enough skill with language and navigating differences in meaning to actively shape framing - debaters and philosophers both have this as their craft (with different emphases). Still, we expect the world to be full of people who haven't reflected enough on their own world-of-terms and concepts to really understand them(note 9), with innumerable differences between people lurking just beyond the surface - the differences are usually masked by language not being high-enough-bandwidth to expose the gaps, but the differences are also not usually so large that the basic ability to communicate, particularly on mundane/functional matters(note 10), has too low an actual conceptual bandwidth(note 11).
Stephen Fry's documentary on homophobia was released earlier this year, and if you find the right places on the internet, you can (and should) watch it. I watched part of it last night (got too sleepy to continue, will watch the rest of it tonight I think); well-done (even if at times a bit shouty; nobody's perfect).
Usual disclaimer: You don't need to recognise or approve of all paths people take to decide to tolerate them; people with religious or other objections to others with non-traditional sexuality should realise that while an intolerant fringe will demand validation and will not tolerate any views but their own on gender/sexuality issues, most of us will tolerate people who tolerate us, provided that tolerance doesn't amount to discrimination in employment, requiring us to be silent about our sexual preferences in a way straight people never have to be, threats of private violence, or laws that criminalise our bedroom behaviour between consenting adults.
Kudos to Fry for making this.
I was pointed at two articles, and decided to add a third. The topics should be familiar (activism, feminism); the post would be a bit long to host directly on G+, so I'll do it here. My thoughts are as much on the topic as the article.

In general, if you want to send me articles for commentary that are related to philosophy, activism, transhumanism, or other topics, and if I find them interesting enough, I'll write about them.
Dear Pittsburgh, I'm visiting from 21-24 of this month. I'll be staying in Oakland. If you want to hang out, let me know; the visit is purely a vacation and I have very little planned so far. As you may know, I live in Brooklyn now, and I haven't visited Pittsburgh since I moved away about 2 and a half years ago.
(Latest in a long series of efforts to communicate part of this cluster of ideas; if you're bored of my endless restatements on this, skip this)
Living in NYC, I've come to see the rivers as being more psychological barriers than physical ones, at least in the time of modern transit. It's not hard for anyone in the 4 main boroughs of NYC to get around, and provided one isn't in the outer bits of any of them (maybe Jamaica in Queens, or Coney Island in Brooklyn), the whole city is pretty accessible. The rivers provide a minor hassle and a line in the sand, and that's enough for us to use as a start for larger groupings of neighbourhoods. It perpetuates as people choose where to live or where to place businesses on these perceptions. Maybe sometimes a bit like race, but with sharper differences.
The fascinating thing is how much stronger the perceived and created differences are than is justified given the ease of communication; Manhattanites generally don't go into other Boroughs without a lot of arm-twisting, people don't generally like to move from Queens to Brooklyn or vice-versa despite similarities of many communities, and so on. There's little good reason not to build tech businesses in Brooklyn or Queens, but only recently have select parts of those Boroughs seen significant growth of those industries.
I've seen parallels of this in other cities I've lived in, although generally without the level of connectivity that NYC has. My constant thought experiment is to wonder, if the rivers were to be erased, how long would the current barriers exist? Would there remain a scar like the path of the Berlin Wall, years later?
I came across this tonight; it's a good partial explanation for the flaws I've found in the various movements I've been involved in (or opposed) over the years. It's part of that story where various good-intentioned people and movements end up with a cultural rot that hurts rather than helps their cause, where people judge claims not by their soundness but rather by their being on the "right" side of an issue, and how some people eventually convince themselves that "fuck you" is actually something reasonable people say in an argument.
I say it's a partial explanation because it doesn't deal with memes in discourse, and those are pretty important; movements develop little verbal tics that are easily confused with actual points, and it takes an unusually careful person to be able to notice those and challenge them in order to get discourse back into good shape.
(I've been posting here a bit less often; been more active on G+ recently, and I'm trying to save this space primarily for longer original content rather than commentary)
This is meant to address three ideas:
For those we care for, we desire them to be happy, to succeed, to grow as people, and various other things. To that end, we offer them our support in various realms of life. This is a great thing, even if we don't care for everyone equally and don't provide the same kinds of support to everyone. However, I think unless we establish some nuances, we run the risk of getting some things very wrong. Our support for others, if excessive in degree or scope, can be detrimental to us or even to them. I have previously written about reasonable degree of care ; helping people to the extent that we injure our own interests or dignity to an excessive degree. Here, we should begin to address scope of care.
I present a divide:
I argue that care-in-judgement is almost always harmful or inappropriate, and care-in-assistance is how we generally should care for people. People require criticism and constant exposure to other perspectives to remain sane; sterile groups of people who agree on philosophy or contested events offer a certain comfort, but it is a comfort that creates inappropriate certainty in life and diminishes the ability of the person to deal with mainstream society; this is the disvirtue of surrounding oneself with yes-men. Safe zones are particularly pernicious towards this end; they offer the unhealthy comfort of closer relationships with people who act as yes-men, curbing the ability of the mainstream to moderate excessive perspectives and offer correction. They diminish the ability of people so humoured to handle disagreement, and incubate unacceptable demands of fidelity-to-their-views that they may place on society.
Beyond these ties, they diminish the person who offers care-in-judgement; the person's judgement is hijacked by their social needs. If our judgement is to mean anything, it must be independent of the people we care for, both in topic and from need for their approval. We must be able to judge our family and our closest friends the same as the people we despise through the same lens, and even handle the nuances of when victims are not wholly innocent (or to a lesser degree, not wholly helpful) or when a victim turns into an abuser. Justice is impartial; in order for our judgement to be true, we must place these realms of life outside responsiveness to social reprecussion. This is very difficult, and many people cannot manage it, but for those that cannot do it much, we must write off entirely their thoughts on matters of justice. For others who can only do it somewhat, we must at least consider their conflicts-of-interest, and criticise or doubt them as necessary to help them grow as people). We also should ignore the politics of the situation when we're asked for (or when the situation calls for) an honest judgement; even if exposure to how we see things would be very unpleasant for the hearer, we owe it to ourselves not to be dishonest with our views; we either must explicitly note that we're withholding their expression, or to tell them, rather than pretend they are what they are not.
With this, we achieve some integrity; a kind of integrity that should be a basis for a kind of self-respect (and, for those virtuous enough to admire this trait, respect of others). We must grow enough as people to offer the reciprocal though; to handle disagreements in perspective and judgements from those around us. That kind of tolerance is just as important as the expressiveness. We should finally avoid the idea of only offering the first in exchange for the second with a particular person; we should strive for both as much as possible with everyone, particularly those that lack one or both virtues.
One of the central questions in political philosophy, or perhaps one of the most intuitive initial framings, is "what do we owe each other?". I prefer to ask this question as a foundational one; one which we ask while the different ways we might structure society, property, and rights or legal norms are in place. We ask it that early because an answer to it might help us decide what specifics to offer. If we were, for example, to ask this question after a system of property or rights or similar are in place, we've already curtailed the number of answers to a question like this; we might not be able to consider oweing each other much of anything if we ask the question after having a well worked-out philosophy that excludes concerns like this. This isn't to suggest that this is the only worthwhile question, but rather that an answer to it would amount to a foundational concern that should, with other such concerns, should provide substantial structure.
The problem remains broad; I initially segment it into two bundles of questions:

Hi all,
I am Siddhartha Kar from Kolkata, want to buy a good image quality point & shoot came with good zoom. I already have canon sx 130 which have 12.1 mp and 12x zoom. Manual features are awesome and HD quality video is too good. But I am not happy about the picture quality and zoom. Pictures are little bit fade and not very bright in the sunlight. I have tried to increase brightness but didn't find. Photo quality is also poor in night with auto mode. I also tried to pick up the photo in manual mode in the night but failed to pick clear image.
Now I am going to buy a clear image camera with good zoom. I have chosen 3 models after cheeking through internet. Please help me out to find out the best between them -
Panasonic - DMC - LZ20
Sony Cybershot DCS H100 and
Fuiji Film S2980
I already checked Nicon L810 but the result is not satisfactory. I do like DSLR look like cam with good features under INR 15K.
If you have any better suggestion please revert me back or you can mail me at email@example.com.
Your valuable comments will appreciate in this regard.

On Sept. 4, 2004, Hurricane Frances struck Florida with high-velocity winds and heavy rainfall, just three weeks after Hurricane Charley. Some areas of Florida received more than 13 inches of rain during the storm's slow passing. Lakes and ponds overfilled, and many roads and residential areas flooded. The area around Orange County's Lake Sherwood was flooded during Hurricane Frances. High water levels created water damage to residential properties and septic systems.
This flooding was similar to October 1960, when Hurricane Donna flooded homes on the lake's north side; the landlocked lake had had no outfall to alleviate the flooding. After this hurricane, crews installed a 24-inch diameter drainwell to the lake's west side to discharge water to the Floridan aquifer. However, after 44 years, the drainwell could not handle the heavy rainfall due to deterioration. Even though replacement of Lake Sherwood drainage well was already in the works, the flooding caused by Hurricane Frances served as a reminder of how urgently a replacement well was needed.
Since 1999, the Roads and Drainage (R&D) Division of the Orange County Public Works Department has contracted consultants to assess the well condition and perform drainage evaluations of the Lake Sherwood basin. For instance, during an October 2000 video assessment of the drainwell, Orlando-based contractor Henderson Wilder discovered holes in the highly corroded casing that were allowing sand entry into the aquifer. In addition, significant erosion near the well was exposing the intake pipe.
Initial consideration was given to rehabilitate the drainwell, but there was a potential for well failure due to extreme deterioration. A collapsing well could cause significant property damage, including to an existing wastewater force main located 10 feet away. The well needed to be replaced.
In October 2003, the R&D Division contracted with Orlando-based Professional Engineering Consultants Inc. and Orlando-based Devo Engineering to design and prepare construction specifications for the drainage well replacement. The consultant recommended constructing four drainage wells to replace the existing one.
Evaluation of the drainwell site showed it was not appropriate to construct the new wells at the same location as the existing one. The existing well was located a few feet away from the north side of State Road 50. This location was difficult and dangerous for county staff to maintain due to access restrictions. Additionally, future road expansion would have placed the wells even closer to the roadway.
All properties around Lake Sherwood were evaluated as potential locations for the replacement wells. An initial location was selected to the east side of an existing county-owned wastewater lift station. This property was located to the northwest side of the existing drainwell. Though approved by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP), the location had to be changed due to access problems and the need to purchase additional area; the process for easement acquisition at this location would have posed a time constraint.
A suitable location was found approximately 2500 feet southeast of the existing well, within county-owned property. In order to satisfy FDEP requirements for approval of the site, the county needed to perform an inventory of wells within 1 mile of the proposed drainage wells. The objective of the inventory was to assess the potential impact of the new drainwells on nearby potable water wells. The initial inventory identified about 36 wells, with the closest well approximately 1100 feet from the proposed location. A second inventory identified more than 100 wells within a 1-mile radius of an alternate location.
The FDEP requested that the county perform water quality sampling to these wells to get conditional approval for the Lake Sherwood drainage well replacement. While waiting for the implementation of the monitoring plan, Hurricane Frances flooded several houses near the lake. The FDEP issued an emergency ordinance in September 2004, allowing the R&D Division to replace the existing drainage well with four drainage wells at the new location. Finally, three months later, the FDEP granted approval for the replacement wells provided that the county assumed responsibility for any adverse impact caused by the new wells.

That is pretty clever of them. I ahdn't noticed it before. Almost makes me want to get two so I can have one MOC. (Almost.)
Look at her Weapons at both pictures. It is a nice touch Thank you Mattel
That is pretty clever of them. I ahdn't noticed it before. Almost makes me want to get two so I can have one MOC. (Almost.)
As with all the Bios so far, I'm ignoring any parts I don't like or agree with, so for me Adam is the only He-Man.
In my own personal canon I intend to rename the Goddess and, since she's green and wearing snake armor, she will be affiliated with the Snake Men, perhaps as the queen of King Hiss.
He who dies with the most MOTUC wins!
Still not crazy about the lighter translucent green. I wish it had darker green like one of these Orion slave girls:
Bikini Teela: Hottest version ever!!
While I don't think over-explaining names, mistakes or artist inconsistencies isn't necessarily wise, if Mattel wants any hope of having this make sense they need to have an explanation for why Blonde Barbarian He-Man, Wun-Dar, and Adam He-Man (and whichever other "He-Men" there are) have identical facial features.
Also, why Wun-Dar wears Cosmic Enforcer armor.
I get that the Mattel crew is having a blast sorting through all of this stuff.
I'm sure any fan would have fun doing that, that's not in question.
But it's not the sturdiest ground from a storytelling perspective.
Like what, in Grizzlor's bio are they gonna talk about his dad who had darker skin?
And the Sorceress was on her way to meet up with the "Mysterious Stranger" in her pink "party dress" when the crap hits the fan?
Or maybe Clawful's bio will relate how Skeletor cast a spell so his legs temporarily resembled Skeletor's.
No offense, but I just don't see the need in attempting to legitimize continuity errors just because someone remembers they happened.
I don't like the idea of multiple He-Mans, for me it sort of takes away the uniqueness of HE-MAN, However I do see how this could explain away Wu-Dar etc.

That way, Teela could have a sheath for her sword (which she doesn't currently ;(

Thanks...none of the internet sites kept up with the game...except Redszone!
Thanks...none of the internet sites kept up with the game...except Redszone!
...the 2-2 to Woodsen and here it comes...and it is swung on and missed! And Tom Browning has pitched a perfect game! Twenty-seven outs in a row, and he is being mobbed by his teammates, just to the thirdbase side of the mound.
So weird, but I'll take it.

Good to know we'll have the full pen available later. It'd be pretty cool if Chapman managed to get the win tonight. I would have to think that's happened in a double header before, but probably not often.
(Referring to Jack Hannahan signing with a Korean team)
Since there are no teams on the moon, I guess South Korea's far enough from Cincinnati to satisfy me.
And Bruce saves Dusty from getting blasted on RZ for not going to Chapman in the 10th, 11th, and 12th innings.
(Just kidding guys, I wanted Chap in the 10th too)
Thank you Walt and Bob for bringing winning baseball back to Cincy -- it was nice while it lasted..

I like these quickies! Take the series now go for the sweep.

What happened? Everyone walked until Bruce? And then he singled? Is that what I'm to piece together?
Edit: Nevermind, I figured it out.
Nice, quick win.

"Since I've been with the Reds in 1989, we've never had a farm system this loaded," Bowden said. "If we were the New York Yankees and had unlimited dollars, we could have traded for Colon, (Jeff) Weaver, Rolen, (Cliff) Floyd, (Kenny) Rogers and Finley and gotten them all -- and still held onto our top five prospects. That's an amazing statement."

text: I have had numerous conversations with coaches and skaters over the last 10 days or so - and there is, of course, an overwhelming feeling of sadness over the earthquake and tsunami and nuclear problems in Japan. One skater went so far as to say they feel "guilty" even talking about Worlds, it seems so trivial, given the enormity of the hardships facing the Japanese people. That said, when it's all said and done and Worlds is moved to a new location (regardless of where) - I am wondering what and how and who (specifically if there is/are anybody) you think will be most affected by this unavoidable delay leading up to the championships? If you are willing to be quoted on the CBC broadcast - please end your response with an OK - if you just want to share your comments, I am interested in seeing what everyone has to say. Thanks for your support! Cheers Pj

I've been looking all over the internet for the past hour or so and cant seem to find a final answer on it.
I'm wondering does anyone know exactly what turbo is in the 2006mk5 1.9L TDI PD jetta?
I know the Golf R has a KO-4 but whats in the Jetta TDI
I'm looking into doing a turbo swap, so I want to research the specs of the current one and then look into others. So I need to know what kind of turbo etc is currently in it. Also was the turbo used the 2010 2.0L TDI any different?

Hello, I bought what is supposed to be a G1 kit a while ago. To be honest, I don't know squat about the FAL other than they look cool and I wanted to have one and I wanted it to be in a kit.
Right off I know it needs some mags, a pouch, and a bayonet, and most importantly a good receiver. (the one pictured was not included)
Im not sure what bayo is used on this. Any input?
I assume that any metric mag will work fine. I've seen some Isreali for sale. Any good?
It needs something called a locking lug. Any input?
Which is better to use for a G1 build, an Imbel or a DSA type 1 or 2?
How much assembly can most builders handle without extensive FAL experience and special tools?
I don't exactly know why I liked this one so much, but I did, and I ended up dropping 9 bills on it. How bad did I do?
I won't be touching this for a few months, but I wanted to come up with a game plan anyway, and maybe an approximate cost.
Thanks in advance!

General Provisions
Community Expectations
Academic and Social Expectations
The Code of Conduct illustrates the standards of behavior expected of every student at Aurora University. Each student is an integral part of our campus community and is encouraged to internalize these expectations. Ideally, each student is expected to use these guidelines as a catalyst to personally impact the Aurora University community in meaningful, thoughtful ways.
It is the student's responsibility to know and abide by all University policies and procedures. The University reviews policies on a regular basis and reserves the right to amend any provision herein at any time in accordance with established University procedures. Communication of any changes will be made to the University community in an appropriate and timely fashion.
A student voluntarily joins the Aurora University community and thereby assumes the obligation of abiding by the standards prescribed in the Code of Conduct. The University, through the Office of the Vice President for Student Life, maintains the exclusive authority to impose sanctions for behaviors that violate the Code of Conduct. Students also may be held responsible for their actions by local, state or federal authorities. The University as well as civil authorities have jurisdiction over violations of law that occur on University property.
Students must abide by this Code of Conduct anytime during the school year, including term breaks and academic sessions. If a student moves on campus prior to the first day of class, he/she is responsible for upholding all rules and regulations of Aurora University.
All students enrolled at Aurora University have access to the Code of Conduct through the Aurora University website (www.aurora.edu).
These regulations are set forth in writing in order to give students general notice of prohibited conduct and are not designed to define misconduct in all-inclusive terms.
This Code of Conduct will apply to conduct which occurs on University property and to conduct which occurs elsewhere during the course of a University function, including but not limited to student teaching, student internships, clinical experiences, intercollegiate athletic competitions, student activities and other University events.
The actions of a student organization involved in University-related activities that are in violation of University regulations may result in disciplinary action against the organization and/or the individual.
Any policy violation that constitutes a felony under federal or Illinois state law may be reported to the Aurora Police Department. Aurora University reserves the right to report misdemeanor crimes to the Aurora Police Department. Aurora University also retains the right to conduct an internal investigation and adjudicate the matter according to stated University policies and procedures. The University sanctions are separate from any pending or completed police investigation and will not be subject to challenge on the ground that criminal charges involving the same incident have been dismissed or reduced.
Any behavior which may have been influenced by a student's mental state (regardless of the ultimate evaluation) or use of drugs or alcoholic beverages will not in any way limit the responsibility of the student for the consequences of his or her actions.
The University has established these regulations regarding standards of conduct in order to give all students at Aurora University full opportunity to attain their educational goals and to protect the health, safety, welfare, property and rights of all members of our community.
The Vice President for Student Life retains ultimate responsibility for the administration of this Code. In situations where ambiguity or other uncertainty exists, the Vice President for Student Life or designee expressly retains final authority to rule on questions regarding policies, procedures, sanctions, and/or processes.
In situations of a potentially serious nature, the University in its sole discretion reserves the right to respond outside of the formal disciplinary process in order to protect the safety and security of members of the University community and their property.
The University will use the following criteria in deciding when to take action for violations of University policy that occur off campus. Not all criteria need to be met in order for the University to take action.
- a. The accused person was registered and/or enrolled as an Aurora University student at the time of the incident.
- b. The incident involves endangering behavior, defined as violent assault, rape, arson, or other similar serious offenses.
- c. The incident involves behavior that has the potential to damage the reputation of the University.
- d. The incident involves behavior that puts students, faculty or staff or the property of students, faculty or staff at risk.
- e. The incident occurred at a University-sponsored event or function.
Aurora University, as an institution of higher education founded in 1893, exists for the purpose of nourishing the growth of its students as thoughtful, productive and responsible members of society. In an effort to communicate our vision of living and learning in a safe, supportive environment, we have developed the following community expectations:
a. We all have rights and responsibilities. Each person conducts him/herself in such a way as to enhance the well-being of all members in the community. Each person also is held accountable for his/her own actions and is responsible for the consequences of said actions.
b. As members of the Aurora University community, we support the application of rules which encourage the development of our campus environment as a constructive educational setting.
c. Community responsibility consists of actively supporting the physical, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual well-being of one another.
d. As we participate in this community, we strive for open mindedness, sensitivity, justice and equality.
e. We are fortunate to attract a diverse student body. To further each person's understanding of the world around him/her, we challenge each person to value the differences in one another.
f. We expect that students accept their responsibility to respect and protect the rights and properties of our extended community, including our Aurora University neighbors, businesses, and the residents of the city of Aurora.
Academic and Social Expectations
Academic and social expectations emphasize more specific commitments to one another. Your assistance is needed to enhance our fundamental principles of academic freedom, equality of opportunity and human dignity.
a. Students will share with faculty the responsibility for academic integrity.
b. Students will treat all members of the campus community with dignity and respect.
c. Students will act with concern for the safety and well-being of all members of the campus community.
d. Students will observe federal, state and local laws and University regulations.
e. Students will assume responsibility for their conduct on the University campus and at campus-sponsored events.
f. Students will refrain from any conduct which adversely affects personal or community well-being.
g. Students will support all members of the campus community through constructive confrontation and dialogue.

Wonder what happened to Danno? I would sure hate to lose power in this weather! He's probably building a fire in the middle of the living room by now. :-D
I've got to do some insulation retro fitting of my place here in Michigan to get the fuel costs down. My bees are better insulated than I am! I've only got R13 walls at best. I think the new building code in my city is R19 for walls these days, but I don't know for sure. I'm sure glad I don't have to heat or cool 5000 sq feet!Looks like we're going to have a mini warm up this weekend and get above freezing. It will be a good time to check on the damage.
A 2 story 3 bdrm 2 bath w/ attached 2 car garage built in the 50's for 13K! (you can't build a basic garage for that these days) It was a block away from the Big Lake Superior. I should mention there's no work, except during tourist season.

This dropped out of the fog? Seriously?! I'm finished with Woot, couldn't be more appalled and dismayed by the community, double standards, and staff. Crescent and Drax, you guys deserve so much better than constantly losing out to the cute crap that takes so much less effort. Your shirts always combine a great sense of wearability, colors, and a very stark, consistent style. As a digital colorist I admire your teamwork greatly, and I hope you guys sell your designs elsewhere someday with more success.

Re: Mathematica 8 + OS X + McAfee = trouble; help? [OT]
While Mac viruses are essentially non-existent in the wild, other

price to pay.
I note that the Mac OS X is based upon a Unix system, and certainly

Congrats! 2:18 is a fantastic time, especially when you have two little babies. I'm training for one in May and it's going verrrry slow. I used to do 10 minutes miles but I'm lucky if I get 13 these days. Eeek. Oh well, I just want to finish. Looks like it was a blast!ReplyDelete
