Sister Paula Jean Miller, FSE, founder and director of Catholic Studies and professor of theology at the University of St. Thomas, has been appointed by Pope Benedict XVI, as an expert, adiutrix secretarii specialis, for the XIII Ordinary General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops on the topic, "The New Evangelization for the Transmission of the Christian Faith." The adiutrix, feminine, or adiutor, masculine, offers expert assistance and collaboration to the special secretary in the preparation of the Synod documents and reports.
Sister Paula Jean was interviewed by John Allen Jr. of the National Catholic Reporter about her observations as a Synod expert. Read the interview here.
As an expert, Sister Paula Jean will attend all sessions of the Synod, listening to the presentations and discussions, and will be available during afternoon meetings for any assistance. Experts are present at all plenary sessions and meetings of the various language groups, where the groups' reporters can enlist their services.
Sister Paula Jean, who has been called to go to Rome in October, was recommended after careful review of her extensive background in theology, teaching, writing and collaboration on many Ecclesial events. Experts are proposed by one of the Vatican offices involved in the topic being discussed at the Synod.
"I am deeply honored and humbled by this request from Pope Benedict XVI to serve in this very important Synod on the New Evangelization," Sister Paula Jean said. "It is, of course, a great tribute to the Franciscan Sisters of the Eucharist, the University and the Department of Theology to have one of 'their own' chosen for this work in the Church at this critical juncture in world and Church history. I gratefully accept this nomination as a source of grace and growth for my own personal, religious and professional life."
University President Dr. Robert Ivany said he was proud of Sister Paula Jean's prestigious accomplishment.
"The announcement by the Vatican of Sister Paula Jean's appointment as a Synod expert is a great honor for her, the Franciscan Sisters of the Eucharist and the University," Ivany said. "We are proud of her achievements and her continued dedication to Catholic Studies at our University."
The Synod begins with the opening Mass on Oct. 7 and concludes on Oct. 28. During this time, the Holy Father will initiate the Year of Faith on Oct. 11, as well as celebrate the 50th anniversary of the opening of the Second Vatican Council and the 20th anniversary of the publication of the Catechism of the Catholic Church. Sister Paula Jean will attend this special moment in the Church's history in support of the Synod of Bishops.
The Synod of Bishops was established following the Second Vatican Council to consider questions pertaining to the activity of the Church in the world, to assist bishops in the preservation and growth of faith, and to foster the unity and cooperation of bishops around the world with the Holy See.
Blessed Pope John Paul II best described the work of the Synod of Bishops in 1983. He said pastoral delegates from local Churches of every continent are represented at the synodal meetings.
"During the meeting, an exchange of information and suggestions takes place; and in the light of the Gospel and of the Church's doctrine common directives are set out which, once sealed with the approval of the Successor of St. Peter, flow back to the benefit of the same local Churches so that the entire Church may preserve communion in the plurality of cultures and situations."
Pope John Paul II also recognized the importance of the experts when he addressed the Secretariat of the Synod of Bishops: "I thank you all from my heart, and along with you I thank the officials of the Secretariat and the experts who with their thorough studies have provided a wide basis for your reflection on the function and functioning of the Synod of Bishops."
Sister Paula Jean, a Franciscan Sister of the Eucharist, joined UST in 1999 at the invitation of the Most Rev. J. Michael Miller, CSB, former president of the University, who is now Archbishop of Vancouver in Canada. Archbishop Miller wanted the visible witness of a community of religious women to be an integral part of the UST family.

Connolly doubtful for Sabres camp
Arbitration didn't work for Dumont
'Let's face it, teams aren't exactly beating down his door, and there aren't many that would throw him on their top scoring line. He would get that opportunity in Buffalo, where he would flank a terrific player in Daniel Briere and become a leader on a Sabres roster dotted with youth. His value should increase.'
OLN wants to hoard Sabres games
'After garnering some of the highest ratings of the season on OLN, the network announced it will use its exclusive rights to hoard seven Buffalo games this season.'
Poor Canadians might not get tickets
'Team officials have finally used the influx of Canadians who come to see Toronto to their advantage, with creative ticket pricing that fluctuates between opponents and game nights. All four home dates with the Leafs carry a hefty price tag — tickets that climb to $150.'

SabreFest a bigger success than expected
'But 3,000 people? In the middle of August? "It was crazy," said Kevin Snow, a spokesman for the team. "We knew interest was high, but…"'
Canadiens yet to make offer to Dumont
'Detroit is considered a front-runner, but many are speculating that Dumont is comfortable in Buffalo and might return for something similar to the $1.596 million he made last year.'
Scalpers take note: Sabres become hot ticket
'"In all the summers I've been here, there's never been this amount of excitement or interest about the Sabres," said Michael Gilbert, the team's director of public relations.'
Thursday's Rochester Coverage

Buffalo needs Sabres' 'problems'
'Success doesn't stem solely from the team's winning record. Owner B. Thomas Golisano made some good and compassionate ticket-pricing decisions that helped broaden and solidify the team's fan base, and the marketing staff has posted a winning record too. And it's not just the region's leaders who should notice – the Bills should be this lucky.'
Sabres Tickets Selling Well
'"This year there probably won't be as many Maple Leaf fans at the games because individual ticket buyers from Canada won't be able to buy as many seats at those games because our season ticket holders have already purchased them," explains Sabres director of public relations Mike Gilbert.'
Agent: J.P. Dumont draws interest from '3-4 teams' but not Habs
'"It's wait and see right now," said Archambault. "There's still 20 days before training camps open. We're studying all our options. J.P. has a young family and wants to go somewhere that will be comfortable."'
Sabres tickets going out of season?
'The Buffalo Sabres haven't had a waiting list for season tickets for close to 25 years. They may be creating one this summer. Buoyed by brisk sales, Sabres officials now expect to cap their season-ticket total at 14,000 to 14,500 seats.'
Miller Negotiatons Continue
'Miller's agent, Mike Liut, tells channel 2 that discussions are taking place on both long, and short term contracts. What's signficant is that earlier in the summer, G-M Darcy Regier had indicated Miller was interested in a shorter term deal, with the ability to become an unrestricted free agent in two seasons. Monday, Liut said Miller would potentially be interested in going long term with Buffalo.'
Tough times might hurt the Sabres
'They lack the toughness needed to endure the long regular season and go deep into the playoffs.'

Providing information about tobacco dependence through research, personal stories and special treatment programs.
Cigarette smoking is the most preventable cause of morbidity and mortality in the United States. The benefits of stopping tobacco use are substantial, and include increased life expectancy and along with physical activity, hold the greatest potential for improving overall physical wellbeing.
Mayo Clinic's Nicotine Dependence Center (NDC), in Rochester, Minn., is comprised of three programs: Treatment, Education and Research — each led by an Associate Director and Program Coordinator. The full integration of all three programs is consistent with the Mayo philosophy of providing the best care possible for our patients, in this case, those who use tobacco. The incorporation of clinical practice, patient and staff education, and research throughout our efforts allows for the prompt translation of research findings into patient care.
One of the first to focus exclusively on treating patients dependent on tobacco, since opening in 1988, the Center has helped more than 40,000 people with that dependence. The NDC offers a variety of programs to help people address their dependence on tobacco. In addition, the Education Program offers a number of programs and resources for health care providers and others who seek to assist in that process.
In the Nicotine Dependence Center, tobacco use interventions (ways to help people quit) are initially tested for efficacy in the Research Program. These include psychosocial, behavioral and pharmacologic options. When a new intervention is proven effective, a model is developed for the incorporation of the intervention into the treatment of patients through the Treatment Program. Treatment models are then disseminated through the Education Program, which is involved in the education of health care professionals around the world.

Rescue Mission Serves 300 Thanksgiving Meals
Men in recovery program cooked entire meal for the homeless
SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - Thanksgiving came early for hundreds of homeless people.
Hours before 300 hungry people filled up on a Thanksgiving feast, the men in the Rescue Mission's recovery program were hard at work.
"I love it. I'm really happy I get to do this," said Nathan Casey.
No detail was left out. Tables were decorated and even the rolls were warmed up just before being served.
As the men did the cooking, the volunteers did the serving.
"I just have to tell you on days like this, we've been doing it for years, serving somebody else, it makes you feel good," said Peter Jordano.
Debra Gonzales was one of the first people to sit down and enjoy her food.
"They've done a lot for me so I thank the Rescue Mission for everything," she said.
Everyone got a plate filled with what they wanted, and it was all homemade. The men in the recovery program prepared everything from turkey, mashed potatoes, ham, green beans and stuffing.
"The food is delicious here and I thank God they have a place where we can go eat," said Mark Smith.
For many of the homeless men and women, this is the only festive meal they will have this Thanksgiving.
"A splendid feast for everybody," said Thomas Scott.
For 14 years, Scott and his wife Rosie have come to the Rescue Mission for Thanksgiving and they said they are glad to share it with friends.
"You are going through the same hardships as they are. And it's good, like we're a family. That's the way I see it," said Alicia Valenzuela.

text: Hello. I started a hive last spring and just went in to see how the bees are doing. Not so good. There seems to be mildew or something of the sort that has affected about 1/2 of the frames of 2 brood boxes. It doesn't cover the entire frames, just sections. For the time being I pulled out the affected frames and just have one brood box set up. I live in coastal Northern California where our winters are rainy and chilly, but basically moderate comparatively speaking. I'd prefer to deal with issues organically. Any thoughts on what is going on? Thanks! -Jennifer

"Adored this card. Easy to create. Received SO MANY COMPLIMENTS! Will continue to avoid the Christmas card frenzy and continue to send a family Valentine's Day one instead!"
"This card was perfect for our family Valentine cards. The colors were vibrant. The paper quality was superb. We received more compliments on these cards than on the Christmas cards we designed through another company that cost much more!"
"I wanted to send a photo card and not a 2-fold card. I really loved the layout of this photo card! The image I chose to use went great with it. Although I wish I could of added another text box, maybe in the bottom corner. Or on the back which was just an original design. To allow for a message and the date Elsewhere. I couldn't get another image to work good enough on the back to do this. Overall I am happy with my daughters Valentine card I made and my family members loved It as well!"
"I downloaded the photos but did not do anything more to change the images. The card came out perfect. I had the main photo in front and two on the back."
"This card combines pink and navy in a whimsical, sweet way and coordinated perfectly with a photo of my twin girls. It will make the perfect Valentine for their first Valentine's day!"

So one is still down to the, "One will probably have to install said off shore safety gear themselves!"
While I have no issues with what Val is doing to his boat, How much of that stuff (ie the handholds, padding etc) was already there? Probably not a good chunk of it, even tho it is a cruising boat by most standards.
One thing that would be nice, IF, and that is a very BIG "IF". The production builders would offer an "offshore" option if you will, with handholds or places inside to attach webbing, or equal structural improvements to the inside for those planing on going off shore. But even still, what and where a hand hold should be, will depend upon of it is a racing crew going at 10-20+ knots like a V70 vs 4-8 knots on a boat like Valiente. Then again, I do not know of too many pure production V70's........so I guess that is probably NOT a good comparison so compare the OP's B44.7 he was on, to Valiente and those two boats general speeds they would go, with the 44.7 probably +1-4 knots faster in most conditions.
We are still into the, what I call personal preference, and the buyer better prepare accordingly for "there" boat. Be it an empty sleek clorax bottle like the 44.7, or a tight inside old wooden shoe of a boat like valiente......wait, ok a steel toed boot, as I am now recalling that it has a steel hull. Either way, there is not a perfect designed boat for all folks personal preferences. I would still rather know the hull etc is sound, and prepare "MY" style of boat for its intended use than to assume that the builder will have it perfect!
Good thread BR. Always a bit of thought goes into your threads. It is appreciated.
It does strike me that as boats get bigger and having all the comforts of home becomes more important that many of the issues raised get shifted sideways or ignored altogether.
If you'll pardon a bit of old fartiness I'd suggest that some of you have a look at the interior of the older crusing boats such as the Hiscocks Wanderer III. While by today's standards she is small, cramped and lacking in many of the bare necessities of life (Good Lord the thing doesn't have air conditioning or a TV, let alone hot showers, positively barbaric conditions ) she does have as central to the accomodation two decent sea berths and plenty of handholds.
I was once sailed across the top of Australia in a 26'er that in almost every respect I found unbearably cramped but she had port and starboard quarter berths, fit for a single body only, that enabled me to sleep like a cat all the way across with nary a bruise or a bump.
Then again, as someone mentioned, most people never spend more than the very occasional night at sea so all that se berth, small cockpit, gumph matters nowt to them.
Chuckles has seen my wife. I'm about a foot taller and our kid is about 4 feet tall (he's six).
I am opting for padded upright poles in our boat, with the ones in the pilothouse doubling as conduits for the tank vents going to the pilothouse roof (high and dry!). In addition to properly secured and "lee-clothed" sea berths, I will have "interior jacklines" for really foul weather made from webbing so that a lurch will tend to throw someone into the webbing before they hit the cabinetry.
Production boats, in my view, are not suitable for offshore for exactly the reasons B.R. cites: They are big, mostly empty Clorox bottles and the crew are mouse-sized projectiles. Fixing that means going against much of the purpose for which these boats were designed: fair-weather daysailing, club racing, coastal cruising, and entertaining at dock.
Not that there is anything wrong with those things. But you can do that and offshore on a small selection of models: J-Boats come to mind.
good points.
A well built boat is always stronger than the crew. The maxim of 'one hand for the boat, one for you' is a good one, but not always enough.
I learned on board my first submarine, and had re-remembered on my last ship, a USNS T-ATF that the first thing you need to do is put straps in your bunk. I got that advice from a salty E-7 who showed me my rack; top most of a four layer stack of racks, a 22 inch wide, 22inch high by 6.5 ft hole five feet off the deck. I literally could not lay on my side because my shoulders were to wide, you lifted yourself up and slid in horizontally.
I fastened 2 inch wide straps at chest and feet to hold me in case of lurches, I'd had sea stories of guys being bounced up and out in a Fred Flintsone like shuffle. As if sideways out wasn't back enough on submarines a serious bow up/down movement can send you falling straight onto your head/neck and still be in your bunk.
The Officer in Charge I replaced on the T-ATF was med-evaced off because as he laid in his bunk with his head facing the bow and he was literally lifted, rolled up and tossed onto his head while still in his bunk by the plunge after cresting a simple 15 foot wave (boat was rated by the CG for 12 ft seas).
We Sailors call them lee cloths, but I'd go a step forward, and put an actual strap in. It'll take some getting used to, but is a whole lot more comfortable than a neck brace for months or a hole in your forehead.
Likewise through out the boat, plan where you have to walk, understand that it's not an exercise in monkey bars where you can swing left hand/ right hand etc. One of those hands will be full of something, you have to be able to do it with one hand so adjust those handholds to that concept.
If you think you can hang on that 1 inch fiddle as a hand hold, try it once at 45 degrees heel and a bow plunge and see, then replace it with a real hold.
Great OP, Billy!
It brought to mind another recent post on the new Bene 49s, they definitely suffered the same offshore shortcomings that you mention on the 44.7.
True offshore capability is so much more than just design, scantlings, gear, and construction techniques.

However, keeping the modifications you might want and the feasibility of making them in mind as you select your dream boat is important. Example: overhead rails -- I don't have them on Billy Ruff'n because I haven't figured out how to modify the cabin top structure to make them really secure. (And, I do have adequate waist-level gripping points for moving about the main cabin, so I haven't really felt the need to redesign the cabin ceiling.)
Unfortunately, most of us (me included) buy the boat that we will use offshore before we have substantial offshore experience. We tend to trust the builders to equip their boats with what's necessary for safe passagemaking. Marty's right in his observation that builders design for the market segement they're targeting. Aftermarket buyers with intentions for their boat that may be different from sailors in the builder's target segment need to know that the shouldn't necesarily trust the builder to put into the boat all that they will require to be safe at sea.
While Billy's post is excellent in what he observed.
An "I wonder" on my part. Some things, hand holds to me, are a bit on the personal side. While some like hand holds on the ceiling, others like my wife that is barely 5' tall, could not reach them if on the ceiling of this particular boat. So now one comes into something like wdtracey is suggesting, some kind of rail, strap etc that one can lean against/hang onto in rougher conditions that is more hip to waist level in height.
While some of us like to bash production builders on there lack of off shore stuff that some of us would like, One has to wonder, if even if they did supply/incorporate some of these things, if some would still not be complaining about these things being misplaced, ie not where they want to grab etc. To a degree, I personally would prefer to know that they built the hull strong enough to handle the offshore conditions that one might encounter, which I believe the 44.7 is, but as noted, "MOST" buyers of this boat will probably NOT take it offshore, hence for Benateau, probably not worth adding to the base boat. So that leaves it up to the end user, to equip with hand holds etc to meet "THERE" needs. Frankly, I personally would rather set up for where I want to grab on to, vs where they think I should reach to! Give me a well built production model that is able to prep my way, vs a well built boat ready, that is NOT the way I want any day of the week!
Maybe there is where I know unless I custom build a boat like Alex did, one will not get things perfect, out of the box! So I do not expect everything to be perfect, but will make things my way! Anyway, while the 44.7 is not on my list of boats to upgrade to, the smaller 36.7 is, and like other boats of this genre, NONE are perfect out of the box. But reviews like this, help me think about how to make the boat I have/will get better than stock, and or how to improve what I already have.
|By the way I am suggesting at waist height and not clipped on just something that you can fall against or guide yourself around with.
Interior Falls
My off shore experience has been that ALL of the injuries in rough water have been below decks. "One for the boat etc" doesn't work when there is nothing to hold onto. I had two injuries on my last off shore trip: one head, one broken rib, both of which can be life threatening. After that I gave considerable thought as to how to make it safer below decks. On my boat the only practical solution is some sort of interior "jack line" set up from the companionway forward. Not as good as adding overhead grab rails, but I think it might keep reduce a "sLam" to a "slip & slide". They will need to be well tensioned and of course I only have a couple of places that will take the strain; the companionway rails, and the compression post, but that takes care of the gauntlet area anyway.
I concur with the comments about racer-cruisers, but in addition to interiors that leave wide open areas, things not through bolted, etc., I worry about the basic construction of the hull, the rig, etc. Most weekend cruiser boats are not up to the rigors of being battered around offshore.
Taking a lightly built boat offshore is a prescription for disaster.

Sebastien Squillaci has called on his team-mates to "keep their chins up and show their mettle" as Arsenal battle for the Premier League title.
Arsène Wenger's side have recorded just one win in their last six games during a month in which their Champions League and FA Cup ambitions have ended.
But with Arsenal still very much in the race for league success, Squillaci wants the players to show their character during the notoriously gruelling run-in.
"It is a bit of a bad time that we're having but we have all got to get our chins up and show our mettle against Manchester United for the title," he told Arsenal.com .
"That's the remaining target now and we've got to give everything for the cause. Really, it is a case of keeping going and getting the three points, that's the most important thing.
"Look at Manchester United for example, they grind out the wins and that is what counts at the end of the season. So for us, that is the main aim. Bouncing back from the disappointments and getting our chins up, showing that Arsenal is a big club, that can win the title."
Johan Djourou's shoulder injury leaves Squillaci one of just two fit central defenders in the first-team squad and he is ready to play an important role from now until May.
"It's fair to say that unfortunately I've not played that regularly and, of course, you're happy when you're playing," he said.
"But the team has been playing well and it's not about me, the main thing is the team wins and keeps picking up the three points, that's all that matters."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

I have a TEFL certificate and have been teaching for 5 years now. I am very interested in studying a TEFL Diploma or the DELTA.
My first question is - how does the Diploma compare to the DELTA? Is it as good and as internationally recognised?
My second question - is it possible to take the DELTA without having the CELTA certificate, given that I already have a TEFL certificate and have 5 years experience?
Lastly, could you please give me a few good institutions/universities where I could study either online?
I look forward to your reply.
Many thanks.

Disney Purchases Lucasfilm Ltd. for $4.05 Billion USD, Episode VII Set for 2015 Release

Disney will make Episodes 7, 8 and 9 as well
"Star Wars" will be making its way back to the big screen now that The Walt Disney Company has acquired Lucasfilm Ltd. for $4.05 billion USD.
Disney said it is buying Lucasfilm Ltd. with cash and stock, and the deal includes Lucasfilm's high-tech production companies (Industrial Light & Magic and Skywalker Sound) and the rights to the "Indiana Jones" franchise.
Even though George Lucas, the creator of
"Star Wars"
and founder of Lucasfilm Ltd., said he was done making new versions of his mega popular epic space opera, he's going to allow Disney to bring "Star Wars" back to life.
Disney is currently working on a new "Star Wars" trilogy, beginning with "Episode 7." The new episode is due out in 2015, and Episodes 8 and 9 will shortly follow. According to Disney, the new trilogy will follow Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia and Han Solo beyond "Return of the Jedi," which was the third film in the original trilogy (but is chronologically the sixth film in the franchise).
"For the past 35 years, one of my greatest pleasures has been to see 'Star Wars' passed from one generation to the next," said Lucas. "It's now time for me to pass 'Star Wars' on to a new generation of filmmakers. I've always believed that 'Star Wars' could live beyond me, and I thought it was important to set up the transition during my lifetime."
Kathleen Kennedy, the current co-chairman of Lucasfilm, will become the president of the unit. She will also be executive producer for the new trilogy.
Kennedy has been working with Lucas and a team of writers to discuss the storyline for "Episode 7." Kennedy said it's essential to have Lucas present as a key advisor during the making of the next trilogy, and she even referred to him as "her Yoda." Lucas has provided his story lines for the new trilogy.
"I always said I wasn't going to do any more and that's true, because I'm not going to do any more, but that doesn't mean I'm unwilling to turn it over to Kathy to do more," said Lucas.
Lucas has received quite a bit of criticism in the recent past due to his decisions involving "Star Wars." Despite creating the hugely popular original trilogy in the 1970s and 80s, he quickly became the bad guy when
the second trilogy
was released. Many fans disliked the new story line, which took place prior to the original trilogy. Fans also hated new characters, such as Jar Jar Binks.
To make matters worse, Lucas
changed some key details in the original trilogy
(such as the scene where Greedo takes the first shot at Han Solo in a bar) and released 3D versions of the movies earlier this year, marking Lucas as a "sell out."
"A politician stumbles over himself... Then they pick it out. They edit it. He runs the clip, and then he makes a funny face, and the whole audience has a Pavlovian response." -- Joe Scarborough on John Stewart over Jim Cramer

|Topic Review (Newest First)
Venting to the Air cleaner is a pretty good way to do it. You might want to check around at the auto parts stores and look at the different "breather" filters out there.
One thing that you might consider is the "breather" filter from a mid 90's VW 2.0L 4 cylinder. It has 2 approximately 18MM barbs on it and a barb on the bottom that would go into one rocker cover.
If your rocker covers have the "grommets" in 2 places on each cover the best way would be to put a breather filter in 1 corner, then run a hose from the same side other hole across to the VW "breather" in that grommet. Then the second barb run a hose to the air cleaner.
This has a couple advantages, you get fresh filtered air into the crankcase to replace the fumes, the VW breather separates a lot of oil and it drains right back into the rocker area and most of all its CHEAP!
|This is a street car apart from 2 or 3 'run wot you brung' days a year. Having said that, I do tend to 'drive' it unlike most of the rodders I've met in the UK who swan around seldom over 3000rpm. My motor pulls incredibly well between 4 & 5K considering the 8.5:1 compression and there lies part of the problem along with a naf cam. However, I dont have money for cam - heads - etc so I must enjoy what I have. The motor was new 2 years ago. At 10K miles most if not all the valve stem seals destroyed themselves! The dealer was very good about it although had never seen anything like it before. I am considering modifying the Lid of the K&N air filter so the breather pipes run in through the top and are directional towards the centre of the holley.
Basically a new 290 horse 350 should not have so much blow by that crankcase venting is a problem, at least for the street. If this is pressurizing the crankcase to a point a force can be felt when the vents are covered with your hands or to where oil smoke is issuing, then one needs to consider an internal failure.
For the street PCV is the way to go, it insures that combustible gases present int he crankcase are cycled into the combustion chambers and burnt. Venting one side back to the air filter insures both that the crankcase gets clean filtered air to replace the fumes draw out by the PCV and that for a street engine that occasionally sees WOT, where the PCV doesn't function, that there is an alternative path to eliminate crankcase vapors via being sucked into the carb's air horn.
Street engines with Positive Crankcase Ventallation systems far outlast those without. PCV systems are extremely good at getting rid of vapors that left to condense in the crankcase cause considerable corrosion damage to intenral engine structures, and develop sludge and varnishes in the lubricating oil.
A vacuum exhaust system is only required on a competition engine or a super charged engine where the crankcase is under so much blow by pressure that there is not other way to provide sufficient amounts of venting without also putting a pump on the crankcase. Such systems require an oil separator to trap liquid coming out with the vented gases.
|It upsets things likely because you have low vacuum. Causes of low vacuum can be many things such as a vacuum leak, low initial spark timing, low compression, camshaft too large, leaking valves and rockers out of adjustment to name a few.
Yes, you could do so but you would only want 1 side run into the breather, the other side will act as a vent. However keep in mind this will cause the air filter to ruin alot faster than normal, and they`ll be a mess in the air cleaner.
I don`t understand exactly why you can`t run a PCV as this has the benefit of keeping the oil cleaner so it lasts longer. If you simply don`t have a vacuum port due to the 1 large port on the holley carb you can do it 2 ways. You can get a screw in vacuum port that screws in the intake runner right behind the carb to run the vacuum from the brake booster or you can T the line and have it run both the brake booster and PCV. This last method is what I did once. You can also order 4 hole carb spacers with a built in rear vacuum port. And last but not least, you could always stick a Quadrajet on it.
SBC breathing set up
I know there's been countless posts and I've read most. However it seems crazy to me, I have what amounts to one of the most common set ups in rodding. TH350 /350 290HP /600 holley. Your entry level basic motor albeit a wheezy low compression duff cam motor. I have managed to make it almost fly considering what it is,but I have one or two unanswered problems. Everyone has an opinion and I'm looking for the definative answer to this question. Currently running open breathers on both rocker covers, venting to atmosphere. Introduce PCV and the carb is naf. Cant use exhaust evacuation , too much back pressure. Yesterday the guy I bought the engine from said run pipe from both sides and T into the air filter. Does this sound ok?

Arsenal's lead at the top of the Premiership is down to two points after Arsène Wenger's side were beaten 2-0 at Ewood Park this afternoon.
It is only the Gunners' fifth reverse of the Premiership campaign and the first since the 2-0 defeat at Manchester United on December 7. However it means that, after their 1-0 win at Aston Villa in a lunchtime kick-off, Sir Alex Ferguson's side are breathing down Arsenal's neck once again.
Wenger went into this game without David Seaman (hamstring), Patrick Vieira (knee), Sol Campbell (Achilles) and Ashley Cole (groin). So when stand-in skipper Martin Keown hobbled off with a suspected hamstring injury after only 18 minutes, midfielder Gilberto was forced into action as an emergency centre back.
The opening goal came three minutes after that switch and was a result of hesitant defending. Rovers had spurned two chances before Damien Duff crashed home his shot from close range. Seven minutes after half time, Tugay added a second when the visiting defence allowed him time and space to shoot from 25 yards.
Arsenal tried to muscle their way back into the game but their passing game simply was not working today. The result means that Blackburn have become the first side to do the "home and away" double over Wenger's side this season.
Before kick-off, the manager had drafted in Stuart Taylor, Edu, and Ray Parlour to replace the injured men. Rovers omitted Andy Cole in favour of Hakan Sukur, who had last played against Arsenal for Galatasaray in the Uefa Cup final of 2000.
He scored that night in the penalty shoot-out that decided the tie in the Turkish club's favour. Today he was making his first full appearance for Rovers after breaking his leg just after signing in December. That might have explained why, in the fourth minute, he mistimed an attempted header at the near post after Keith Gillespie had held off Gio Van Bronckhorst's challenge and then sent over an inviting cross.
Henry then warmed the hands of Rovers keeper Brad Friedel in the 14th minute with a now trademark free-kick. The American stopper dived away to his right to paw away the shot. It was a save that brought back memories of his role in keeping Arsenal's incessant attacking at bay in Rovers' 2-1 win at Highbury on October 26.
In the 18th minute, Friedel made another fine low save, this time it was from Edu's free-kick. However, in the build up to that goal, Keown raced into the area and dummied the ball. He immediately pulled up in pain and limped off with what looked like a hamstring injury. Gilberto came off the bench and slotted into the unusual position of centre back.
It was a blow but Arsenal hardly helped themselves in the 22nd minute. Slack defending allowed Gillespie to scamper up the right and cut the ball back to Duff on the edge of the area. He miskicked his attempted shot but Arsenal failed to clear. Tugay latched on to the loose ball but his effort hit Dwight Yorke and rebounded high in the area. It fell to Duff, who had time and space to crash home a volley from eight yards.
Rovers were rampant after that. Craig Short thumped a header just over the bar in the 29th minute then Duff's fierce left-foot strike forced a fine, flying stop from Taylor.
Yet Arsenal may have stolen an equaliser just before the break. Van Bronckhorst sent over a low corner that was missed by everybody at the near post. Friedel dived but only palmed the ball straight into the air. It looped up to Pires but the Arsenal midfielder could not force home his header and Rovers clear their lines.
Six minutes after the break, the home side doubled their lead with a simple goal. Tugay received the ball in midfield about 30 yards out, evaded Edu's challenge and was allowed the time to pick his spot from distance.
It snatched away an impetus that Arsenal may have gained from Wenger's half-time team talk. Gillespie, who was causing problems on the right, almost set up a third but Yorke could not control his header and the ball flew high and wide of Taylor's goal.
Ljungberg did fire a stinging half volley just over the bar but, in truth, Arsenal were disjointed. Their passing simply was not working so it was no surprise when Wenger brought on Francis Jeffers and Sylvain Wiltord with 22 minutes left and switched to 4-3-3.
It helped a little but the Rovers defence snuffed out all but scrambled half-chances and pot shots from distance. In truth the home side held on with few alarms.

The photographer Danny Lyon was born in Brooklyn, NY in 1942 and is responsible for some of the most iconic images in American motorcycling history. His images are stark, revealing, compelling, and honest. His documentation of his time spent with the Chicago Motorcycle club The Outlaws and the subsequent book "The Bikeriders" produced a set of images that has inspired & continues to inspire generations of motorcyclists. Danny wasn't satisfied with simply being a voyeur documentarian, he needed to experience the lifestyle by living it and became a member. Participating in the lifestyle allowed him to depict the The Outlaws in a more intimate & revealing light. It allowed him to capture the raw purity of the freedom these men and women sought and the willingness live on the fringe of society to chase that freedom. For better or worse living as untethered souls. To live on their own terms. Here's to the ride.

HOUSTON -- No. 1 North Carolina (9-0) used an 8-run fourth inning en route to an 11-5 win over California (4-6) on the second day of the Astros Foundation College Classic in Houston, Texas.
Freshman Landon Lassiter paced the Tar Heels at the plate with a 4-for-6 performance as Carolina scored 11 runs or more for the fourth time this season.
Junior Colin Moran chipped in a pair of hits, while adding a pair of RBIs. Michael Russell and Korey Dunbar each contributed two RBIs apiece in the win on Saturday.
Carolina starter Benton Moss lasted 5.2 innings as he struck out a season-high nine batters, while surrendering three runs, two of which were earned to improve to 3-0.
The Tar Heels fell behind in the first with the Golden Bears pushing across an unearned run to take an early lead.
Carolina was held in check by Cal starter Jake Schulz until the top of the fourth when UNC sent 13 batters to the plate and were able to take the lead with an eight-run inning. The Tar Heels tallied six hits and drew three walks for their fifth inning of six runs or more this season.
The Tar Heels would add on three more runs in the top of the fifth inning when Colin Moran narrowly missed a home run with a blast into the right center field gap.
Moran would score a pair of Tar Heels with the double before coming around to score on a balk.
Carolina's bullpen would falter in the sixth inning allowing California to claw back within six with a four-run inning.
Shane Taylor would end the threat in the sixth thanks to a diving play by Skye Bolt in right field.
Chris McCue would deliver a pair of scoreless innings out of the bullpen to put a cap on UNC's ninth win of the season.
Carolina will look to make it 10-0 to start the year for just the third time since 2000 on Sunday when the Tar Heels face Texas A&M at 2 p.m. CT/3 p.m. ET in UNC's final game of the Astros Foundation College Classic.

AMES, Iowa — Iowa Learning Farms and the Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship are hosting a tour of Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program wetlands in Emmet County on Tuesday, July 24, beginning at 1:30 p.m.
The tour is free and is limited to 40 pre-registered participants. Register for the July 24 tour by phone, 515-294-5429, or email, firstname.lastname@example.com. Registered attendees can park at the Graettinger Drive-Up Restaurant, 107 East Robbins St., where the tour will depart and return. Tour participants are encouraged to bring their hiking boots or waders for an up-close look at the wetland structures. Matt Lechtenberg and Shawn Richmond, CREP specialists with IDALS, will lead the tour and talk about the benefits, installation and financial incentives for these structures.
There are 37 counties in north-central Iowa eligible for enrollment in CREP. Iowa State University research has demonstrated that strategically sited and designed wetlands can remove 40-90 percent of nitrates and more than 70 percent of herbicides from cropland drainage waters. These areas are as beautiful as they are functional.
Iowa Learning Farms is building a Culture of Conservation, encouraging adoption of residue management and conservation practices. Farmers, researchers and ILF staff are working together to encourage farmers to implement the best in-field management practices that increase water and soil quality while remaining profitable.

As with many cancers, the risk of developing throat cancer increases with age, with most people being over the age of 65. Men are two to three times more likely than women to develop throat cancer in their lifetime.
Risk factors differ depending on where the cancer grows in the throat.
Anything that increases your risk of getting a disease is called a risk factor. Having a risk factor does not mean that you will get cancer. Not having risk factors doesn't mean that you will not get cancer. If you think you may be at risk, you should discuss it with your doctor.
We use genomic tumor assessment to examine a patient's tumor on a genetic level. This innovative tool can help us find what's driving the cancer's growth and offer patients more precise treatment.

It's fairly easy to replace the firing pin spring. Here's an ok tutorial. Just make sure that you are wearing safety glasses the first time you do it and I also recommend that people do it the first time inside a cardboard box turned on it's side so in case you lose hold of it, the parts don't have far to fly. Trying to find a spring on the floor can be a time consuming effort. It'll seem like you need three hands to do it, but holding the slide in your left hand and using your thumb to disengage the firing pin safety is the easiest way I've found.
After making sure it's unloaded and stripping the gun down...
Use a punch or something similar to depress the firing pin, push in on the firing pin safety until the firing pin goes past the firing pin stop, and slide the firing pin stop out of the way. This will be right about the time shit start flying across the room, so be careful.
Clean out the firing pin channel. Since you've got it broken down this far, slide out the ejector and clean and lube that area as well.
Reassemble in reverse order.
Pretty simple once you've done it a few times.
Good luck!

That's silly for someone to claim it was too "beginner." I am a monk, and I found this Mind-Body Toolkit to be very, and I mean VERY effective, with no limit to it, especially when you get to the CD #2, where the music...put it this way. I was tired once, I fell asleep as the CDs were addressing me. I must tell you I had the most sacred dream I have EVER had, in 5 decades of living.

- Review for Dr. Andrew Weil's Mind-Body Tool Kit Review by Robert Roth
This kit has been enormously useful to my effort to relax my body and mind. Read the booklet if you have time, but if not just play the first CD in a quiet place. The first 7 cuts are breathwork, 8-10 are an intro to meditation with John Cabot Zinn. Voice, tone & content are all excellent. Lately I've progressed to CD 2 and while this may be because I've been working on progressive relaxation for some time on my own, the guided imagery followed by relaxing sounds/music are all great. I listen in the quiet of my home before anyone's awake or when I can't sleep in the night, and either feel great afterwards or fall asleep listening, depending on the occasion & goal. Highly recommended and I've given it to several family members & friends.

Adventures in Euphemism: Two Nordic Nations Define "Basic Human Rights"
posted at 9:09 am on July 3, 2010 by Diane Suffern
Great news, Finns. It appears you're the recipients of a brand-new, government-issued Basic Human Right™. Yes, alongside Life (postnatal) and Liberty (State-defined), you now have the fundamental legal right to affordable broadband internet access! In fact, Finland is the first nation in the world to pass such legislation, promising access to a 1Mbps connection in every household by 2015.
CNN reports the exuberance of one official:
"From now on a reasonably priced broadband connection will be everyone's basic right in Finland," said Finnish communications minister Suvi Linden. "This is absolutely one of the government's most significant achievements in regional policy and I am proud of it."
(Insert thunderous applause of Net Neutrality advocates everywhere.)
Since this appears to be a moral crusade, I won't trouble you with concerns of government-managed content or future impairment of technological development. But the angle of "basic human rights" brings to mind another curiously underreported matter across the Baltic involving basic parental rights.
According to The New American, Sweden recently signed an education reform package entitled: "The new Education Act – for knowledge, choice and security." Choice. Now, that is a triumph in Orwellian doublespeak. Along with sweeping new regulations on private schools, Sweden has effectively banned home schooling:
"[Religious schools] can't make any children to pray or confess to the God, but they will still be allowed [to exist]," Education Ministry press secretary Anna Neuman told The New American in a telephone interview. Essentially, there will no longer be any difference between "private" schools and government schools, she explained. And there will be no other option.
In addition to abolishing any remaining distinctions among schools, the new education act also prohibits home schooling for religious or philosophical reasons. Home education can be allowed only in "exceptional circumstances" like extreme bullying, Neuman explained. Lawyers have said the new condition basically means never. […]
"It's a fear that [home schooling] doesn't work appropriate[ly]," press secretary Neuman explained, though she admitted there was no report or evidence to back up the fear. (Emphasis mine.)
Clearly, working "appropriately" means something other than educational quality since evidence is squarely on the side of modern home school families. Rather, this is tacit admission that academic success and school choice is of lesser importance than allegiance to State dogma…for the children:
"A pupil who is in need of help and support must have the right to receive it and one who is bright also has the right to be stimulated," says Minister for Education Jan Björklund about the new Education Act.
"Stimulation" as arbitrarily defined by the Kingdom of Sweden…which could be the the UNCRC set to Ace of Base tunes, much to Swedish parental chagrin.
Both countries and their respective pieces of legislation belie a view of human rights incontrovertibly warped by Statist agenda: Finland invents a human right to justify state control of internet access. Sweden revokes the natural right of parents to instruct their children in favor of the always-benevolent, always-just regime. (It Takes a Village, anyone?) Two nations, two cases of "rights" arbitrarily created, redefined or rescinded, gutting the concept entirely.
Yet, this is the EU. What do the Socialist escapades of two chilly Montana-sized nations across the Atlantic have to do with us? We should consider ourselves fortunate to have front row seats to the future of our own nation should liberal policies continue to proliferate. The same euphemistic language is bandied about, the same conjuring of "rights" occurs to facilitate more regulation of our lives. Far from being anchored in anything substantive—besides an elitist vision of control—the term "basic human right" itself is a plaything, a MacGuffin, a verbal football to toss back and forth as long as it serves their purpose. What does it even mean?
The right to comply with the State's choices for our children, our health, our media. The right to receive anything the State (peace be upon It) decides to generously guarantee us, with gratitude.
All things considered, I'll take my freedom and 1996 dial-up over this utopia any day.

Carl Jenkinson says Arsenal are fully prepared for the physical battle awaiting them at Stoke on Saturday.
Arsène Wenger's side have not been at their best at the Britannia Stadium in recent seasons, picking up one win in their last four visits.
But Jenkinson believes Arsenal are ready for this weekend's challenge and insists they are capable of dealing with whatever the hosts throw their way.
"I think it is fair to say that most teams struggle with the physical side that Stoke have," he told Arsenal Player at an event for The Arsenal Foundation.
"It is something we have to be aware of and it is no surprise anymore, everybody knows how Stoke play. They are a big, strong and physical side but we are prepared for that, know what is coming and just have to deal with it as best as we can.
"We are very excited but we know it will be a tough game. Stoke away is never an easy place to go and we have to be prepared for the sort of game we know they are going to throw at us. But we are looking forward to going up there and getting a win."
Chelsea booked their place in May's Champions League final against Bayern Munich on Tuesday, a match which could have implications in the battle to join Europe's elite next season.
Not even a fourth-place finish would be enough to secure a play-off for the competition if Roberto Di Matteo's side win in Munich and Jenkinson admits third place is now more crucial than ever.
"Of course they can win it, they wouldn't have got this far if they didn't have it in them to win," said the right back. "But it is in our hands now, we are in third place and we can't be relying on other things for us to be in the Champions League now.
"We need to make sure of it ourselves and the only way to do that is finish in third place. We just have to do everything we can to win our next three games and make that place ours."

Toyota raises
profit outlook
Toyota Motor Corp. raised its profit forecast after the yen weakened more than any other currency, raising the value of Japanese cars sold overseas. The world's biggest carmaker said its net income in the year ending in March will probably reach a five-year high of $9.3 billion, exceeding the previous $8.4 billion forecast
BP profit down
on settlements
Oil and gas giant BP's fourth-quarter profit fell nearly 80 percent, dragged down by payouts related to the 2010 Gulf of Mexico oil spill. BP took a loss of $3.85 billion for its settlement of all federal criminal charges with the U.S. government. BP's refining and sale of petroleum products, however, earned a record amount for the year.
Blackberry wait
extended in U.S.
A new BlackBerry with a physical keyboard might not arrive in the U.S. until May or June, a month or two behind other parts of the world, the smartphone maker's CEO Thorsten Heins said. The keyboard and touchscreen versions of the new BlackBerry 10 phones are Research in Motion's attempt at a comeback. The smartphone pioneer lost its cachet after Apple's 2007 release of the iPhone.
dividend up
MasterCard is doubling its quarterly dividend to 60 cents per share and says its board approved the repurchase of up to $2 billion of its stock. The credit card company said the increased dividend will be paid on May 9 to shareholders of record on April 9. The new buyback effort will become effective once it completes its current $1.5 billion stock repurchase program, which has $440 million remaining.
U.S. home prices
up in December
U.S. home prices rose 8.3 percent in December, compared with a year earlier, according to a report from CoreLogic, a real estate data provider. It was the biggest annual gain since May 2006 and was spurred by a low supply of available homes and rising demand.
UBS reports
loss for quarter
UBS AG, Switzerland's biggest bank, posted a second straight quarterly loss after booking a fine for trying to rig global interest rates and costs tied to job cuts. The net loss amounted to $2.08 billion in the fourth quarter, compared with a $355 million profit a year earlier
Disney reports
drop in profits
Walt Disney Co., the world's largest entertainment company, reported its first quarter net income declined 5.6 percent, to $1.38 billion, or 77 cents a share, from $1.52 billion, or 80 cents, a year earlier. The owner of theme parks, cable networks and film studios said sales rose 5.2 percent, to $11.3 billion. Disney's year-earlier results were boosted by the release of "The Lion King" and "Cars 2" on DVD.

Hey guys, today i've received a pair of Reinone Boots size 10. I'm gonna make a comparative post beetween them. Of course we all know that a replica is never gonna be as good as a original item so I want to specify that what I want to do is a constructive critique, not a destructive one. Reinone has made a excellent work with them.
Lets see then, the diferences beetween them;
- In first place, there is a first preview pic beetween them two. I also must say that KC are size 11 and Reinone are size 10.
1- These are for me the most significative diferences. Sole and silver-armor parts. The sole gap is too much rectum in the Reinone one's while in the originals they have some curvature. The silver-armor marked in the pic is too short in Reinone's one in comparation the to KC.
2- The silver armor parts have a curvature that the originals don't have. The armor parts of the original are completely flat:
3- And here are some diferences not as significative as the first two:
4- Finally a sole comparative pic, where you can guess the diference beetween materials used on each boot.
So in conclusion I can say that Reinone's boots looks for me too much plastic. Of course a replica boots are not gonna use as good cuality material's as the original ones.
Good things :
- A great replica boots, very comfortable with a 100% new soles.
- Great and very accurate colour on the fabric zone.
Bad things :
- Material's not as good as I expected
- Some diferences In sole and silver-armor parts
I want to be sure of no one is misinterpreting me. I have nothing against reinone, its JUST a comparative post beetween Originals and Replicas.
I'm not sure about selling my KC yet but if I do I'll let you know.
One user talked me about making a mold of my KC. I think he was MoW but I'm not sure so please shoot me a PM and we could talk about that


text: Anyone have SK's kit and have some pics of it installed. The RF LED's and the servo/transmitter pics would be great. I am going to begin the assembly mock up and some inspiration would really help me get going. Preferrably in a FP helmet, but ill take what i can get. Thank you.
