Final Week of Regular Season Begins Tuesday
By: Andrew Gavin (@GBGavin)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - With two Horizon League games remaining, the Green Bay men's basketball team (15-13, 9-5 HL) begins an important week at the Resch Center on Tuesday night, hosting rival Milwaukee (8-22, 3-12 HL) at 7 p.m.
Green Bay saw its momentum halted slightly on Saturday at Drake, but the Phoenix carries a three-game Horizon League winning streak into its final two regular season contests. After starting the conference season at 0-2, Green Bay has won nine of its past 12 Horizon League games to sit in a tie for third place in the standings.
The week begins with rival Milwaukee, who despite sitting in last place in the league standings will visit the Resch Center as one of the hottest teams in the league after back-to-back wins over UIC and IUPUI. The first meeting on Jan. 25 marked the first road win of the season for the Phoenix, who used an 18-2 run to break away from a 41-41 tie midway through the second half en route to a 74-54 win.
Also in the first meeting, Green Bay's All-Horizon League duo of Alec Brown (Winona, Minn.) and Keifer Sykes (Chicago, Ill.) outscored the Panthers 28-27 alone in the second half. Brown scored 15 of his 23 points in the second half and went over 1,000 career points while Sykes tallied 13 of his 16 after the break. Sykes is averaging 20.3 points in three career games against Milwaukee.
FOLLOW THE PHOENIX: Fans unable to make it to the Resch Center on Tuesday night will be able to catch the game exclusively on ESPN3. Will Haskett will provide the play-by-play with Joel Cornette alongside as the analyst.
The contest against the Panthers will also be carried on WDUZ The Fan 1400 AM and online at thefan1075.com. The play-by-play voice of the Phoenix Matt Menzl will be on the call alongside Cordero Barkley. Live stats will be available on GreenBayPhoenix.com. You can also stay up-to-date by following @GBPhoenixMBB and @GBGavin on Twitter.
1. INSIDE THE SERIES: Green Bay now leads the series against the Panthers, 27-21. The Phoenix has won 16 of the 23 games in Green Bay but will be looking to avenge an 81-75 home loss to the Panthers on Feb. 4, 2012. The Phoenix win at the Klotsche Center in January improved Green Bay to 10-13 in Milwaukee.
2. HOME SWEET HOME: The Phoenix is 10-2 at the Resch Center in 2012-13, including 5-1 in Horizon League play. In the past three seasons under head coach Brian Wardle, Green Bay has a 32-8 record in 40 home games. Sykes is averaging 16.7 points and 5.1 assists per game in 12 home games this season, going 72-of-92 from the line. Green Bay is allowing just 56 points per game and holding opponents to just 36.8 percent shooting. Led by Sykes, the Phoenix has made 130 more free throws at home than its opponents (237-107).
3. TOP OF THE CLASS: Freshman Jordan Fouse (Racine, Wis.) is in the conversation for Newcomer of the Year in the Horizon League. The stat stuffer leads the league in rebounding (7.6) and is third in steals (1.6) and tied for third in blocks (1.4). On Saturday, Fouse broke the program's freshman record for rebounds in a season, a record which had stood since 1969-70, the program's first season.
• COMEBACK TIME: Green Bay has shown the ability to come back and handle adversity throughout the season. Most recently, the Phoenix has overcome a second-half deficit in each of its past five victories. The team has won its last four games following a loss, and ended a season-long four-game losing streak by defeating Marquette 49-47 on Dec. 19.
• SECOND-HALF SYKES: Sykes, one of just two Horizon League players to be named Player of the Week at least three times this season, has excelled in the clutch. In wins over Cleveland State and YSU, he scored 38 of his 47 points in the second half. He has scored 75 points after halftime in the past five games. For the season, Sykes averages 9.1 points per game after halftime.
• BLOCK PARTY: Brown has blocked 39 shots in Horizon League play to become the fourth player in league history with more than 200 career rejections. The 7-foot-1 Brown is third in Horizon League history in blocks, behind only YSU's Damian Eargle (289) and Dan Godfread (226) from Evansville. Brown's 52 blocks this season are the third-most all-time, behind only his totals as a sophomore (89) and a freshman (67).
• REJECTIONS REGISTERED: With Brown (52), Fouse (40), Mays (17) and Cougill (13) all in double figures in blocks, the Phoenix has now swatted 137 shots on the season. That total is the second-most all-time, behind only last season's 142 and in front of the third-best total in program history, the 119 blocks in Brown's freshman season.
• ROOKIE RISING: Fouse has proven himself to be one of the best rebounders and defenders in the Horizon League, but is also making his mark on the Phoenix record book. The 6-foot-7 freshman has grabbed 213 rebounds to break the 44-year old freshman record, set by Dennis Woeffler (209) in the program's first season, 1969-70. With 45 steals, Fouse trails only Tony Bennett (49) and Terry Evans (50) for most by a Phoenix freshman. Finally, Fouse's 40 blocks are the second-most by a Phoenix freshman (Alec Brown's 67 in 2010-11) and tied for the eighth-highest single-season total in team history.
• DEFEND THE HORIZON: The Phoenix has been among the league's best rebounding and defensive teams in league play. Through 14 games, Green Bay leads in field goal percentage defense (.383), rebounding margin (+6.2) and blocked shots (6.0) and is second in scoring defense (60.1). In its nine league wins, the Phoenix has not allowed more than 63 points and has a scoring defense of 54.6. Four league opponents have had their lowest scoring outing of conference play against the Phoenix (Detroit, Youngstown State, UIC and Loyola).

Summer Tomato, a foodie blog that I enjoy, and thought the idea of quickly sauteeing thin-sliced cabbage, hitting it with a shot of soy sauce, then gently scrambling fresh free-range eggs around it might be good.
Unable to leave well-enough alone, I kicked Summer Tomato's recipe up a notch or two by building in some aromatic flavors and just a touch of piquant fire to give it a cross-Asian touch that reached from India to South China.
The Summer Tomato recipe is here. My changes involved scenting the oil with a smashed garlic clove (discarded after browning) before I cooked the cabbage; and adding light rations of cumin, turmeric, Madras curry powder, black pepper, sambal oelek and a dash of sesame oil to the eggs, plus 1 tablespoon water for each egg. (I used three eggs and the greater part of a medium-size cabbage to make enough for a light dinner for two, and those portions worked out about right.)
More tips: Slice the cabbage very fine, and brown it over very high heat. then, after you've stirred in the soy sauce, reduce heat to medium low and scramble the eggs gently, slowly, lifting and turning the eggs in large curds as they form up. Pull it from the heat when it's still a bit on the soft side, and carry-over heat should finish them perfectly.
We served this with dinner rolls, and it reminded me a bit of old-style Chinese-American Egg Foo Young. A green salad would have gone well with it, although I claimed there was enough cabbage in there to declare the dish green-veggie healthy without further help.

Hi fellow mandos,
this is my first attempt in painting something by airbrush. After some nasty things about the brush and me it didn´t looks bad at al (i got colored hands, but won the battle).
The armor is from BM. I used humbrol paint and maskol liquid and airbrushing in layers.
And of curse, i used evan´s stencils:thumbup:thumbup:thumbup (Thanks evan)
This is how it looks like without weathering. More to come, in the next days.
Thanks Florian

Hi Lucy,
Please can you give me some advice on preparing students for Trinity exams. I'm starting a course next week with a student & the first lesson will be to find out her level. My school doesn't actually run the exams but we have to help prepare the students. I don't know anything about these exams, what do they test students on? How can I discover what level the student is according to the Trinity critera?
Thank You,


text: Hi guys. Well, over the weekend I built a right gauntlet out of 100 pound paper using the WOF template. It turned out fine, except I need to tighten it up in the front so it fits snug, and in the rear I need to let it out as my upper forearm is a bit big. Can anyone advise me as to how I can get it to fit properly? My goal is to do a final piece using 1mm Sintra, take silicone casts off of it and run resin pieces. The design will feature the standard clamshell design with a hinge. I'd like to get it to where it will fit my arm without having to add all kinds of padding. Can anyone help me out? Thanks!

I'm excited to share with everyone that Monday I bought my first gun. The hubby and I spent 2 1/2 hours in the gun shop with an obnoxious old man to finally end up getting a Beretta Xtrema.
After going through the rack 40 times trying to see what fit me, the closest we came was the Xtrema with the stock shortened and a 26'' barrel.
I'm anxious to get out and shoot it :]
What guns do you ladies have that you love? Have any of you had problems finding guns to fit?

Ok so I could have sworn that I read somewhere that Kuat Drive yards built Slave 1 for Boba Fett, But there is no way that is right because Jango had the ship as well. SO, what was the Kuat Drive Yards association with the ship?
Sorry, but I am not as well versed as the rest.

Sorry dude. I did it, and I have no regrets.
I sold the Glock 34 to buy an AR15. After shooting my PS90 again today, however, I think I am satisfied w/ it - and I don't think I will bother buying an AR - I see no need for it. Unless I buy a varmit type AR - one w/ a scope to shoot long distances, it makes no sense for me to spend over $1k for another rifle setup with another Eotech. Not when I have an awesome setup already.
Anyway... on to the main topic - the Glock... Even though I sold it to buy a rifle, a rifle I'm not gonna buy now... I have no regrets. The Glock 34 is my fav Glock out of any Glock. But, it is still a Glock. I just don't like that spongy/mushy trigger.
I enjoy my P99 too much. Other than MAYBE a FNP9, there really is no other 9mm handguns that interest me. The P99 does everything I want - and, I have two fullsize 99's (a P99 and a SW99) and a compact P99.
I shoot the P99 more accurately than the Glock 34 too.
So, I have no regrets. I didn't loose my mind

NYT claims MoDo is "eager" to give credit; Tucker disagrees
New York Times spokesperson Diane McNulty:
There is no need to do anything further since there is no allegation, hint or anything else from Marshall that this was anything but an error. It was corrected. Journalists often use feeds from other staff journalists, free-lancers, stringers, a whole range of people. And from friends. Anyone with even the most passing acquaintance with Maureen's work knows that she is happy and eager to give people credit.
As Politico's Michael Calderone notes [1], the fact that Marshall hasn't lodged any further complaints doesn't mean anything about anything. Whether or not Maureen Dowd did something wrong is not dependent upon whether Josh Marshall says she did.
But that bit about Dowd being "happy and eager to give people credit" caught my eye, because just moments earlier, I read Tucker Carlson's comments [2] during a Washington Post online discussion:
[T]he whole thing is an interesting window into how her column is created. I knew someone once who was on her call rotation. Every week, she'd call and collect amusing lines from him, which she'd invariably use without attribution. Every writer does this to some extent -- I've made a lot of money over the years stealing from my conversations with Matt Labash -- but she seems to do it more than most.
So which is it? Is Dowd "happy and eager to give people credit," or does she rely more than most writers on the attribution-free use of lines told to her by others?
Earlier: How would the NYT react if Joe Biden gave an excuse this lame? [3]

Jets head coach Rex Ryan said earlier this week that if cornerback Darrelle Revis is on the team flight to Pittsburgh, he'll play Sunday against the Steelers. Well, Revis is not going to be on that plane as Ryan ruled him out during his Friday press conference. Revis suffered a concussion in Week 1 and while he has been cleared for non-contact practice, he has yet to be fully cleared by medical personnel. Kyle Wilson will start in place of Revis.
Fantasy Analysis:
Good news for the Steelers offense. You're most likely starting Antonio Brown and Mike Wallace if you've got them, but I think this is really good for Brown since Revis probably would have been all over him. Antonio Cromartie will likely set up across from the bigger Wallace. Raise expectations for Brown, but again, both guys are at least WR2 plays.

Building codes change on a three year cycle and we just had an update from the 2009 codes to the new 2012 International Residential Code (IRC) and the new 2012 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC). Austin TX adopted the 2012 IRC this month so all new houses starting now (Sept 2013) will be under the 2012 codes. Here's a link to the Austin Adopted ordinance to see the fine details.
I must admit that I don't own a copy of the building codes anymore. When I worked for a Production Builder 20 years ago having a copy of the Building Codes was a big deal mainly because we were always building at the minimums. Nowadays, I rarely need to refer to "code" and if I am looking something up it's usually handrail/guardrail related. (Remember that code is the worst legal house you can build).
Anyhow, the point of today's post is how the new insulation codes affect a house using spray foam. For a general overview of the IECC code change see this great article by Martin Holladay on Green Building Advisor. Also, remember if you are reading this blog from anywhere besides Austin you'll need to look up your climate zone. See this website for your zone lookup. (FYI, Austin TX is in Climate Zone 2)
Ceilings have gone from R-30 to R-38 but that requirement is based upon fiberglass insulation on a flat drywall ceiling and a "hot" attic above. With a conditioned attic and spray foam under the roof deck the code has changed from R-21 to R-25. With open cell foam (approx R-3.8/inch) we used to use 5.5" inside the roof line to make code. (I'm also a big believer in using 2" of rigid foam sheets on the roof deck, see this video for my technique). Now to make the R-25 requirement you will need 7" of open cell spray foam. My new Risinger Homes standard is 8 inches of open cell at the roof line for R-30 insulation.
Walls have gone from R-13 to R-15 OR R-13+2. The +2 is referring to exterior rigid foam that can be added to a standard 2x4 wall with R-13 insulation. This means that typical fiberglass batts in a 2x4 wall don't meet code anymore (finally), you'll need a total fill BIBS or Spray Foam to make the R-15 requirement in a 2x4 wall. My preference has long been to use a total fill insulation and open cell spray foam is tough to beat. It totally fills the stud cavity and it does a good job of air sealing inside that stud bay. Here are some photos of a Risinger Home under construction in Barton Creek my crew just insulated this week. We used 8" of foam in the roofline, and 5.5" in the Advanced Framed Walls.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Thanks all, some answers to the questions: Yes I believe I have rebuilder pistons with stock deck height, deck clearance confirmed at .043. I did mis- state the DCR with the 64cc alum heads and .041 head gaskets I calc SCR = 9.3, DCR = 8.08, Quench = .084. Bogie may have the best (least cost solution) using 67cc vortec heads and .015 gasket with the same Lunati 60102 cam I get SCR = 9.5, DCR = 8.29, Quench = .058. I have not purchased heads or cam yet, I do have an old 64 vette 350 hp 327 alum manifold i was thinking of using, if i go with the vortec i will buy performer air gap. This is a street car and I will need to run pump gas, do you think the .058 quench will work ok with the vortec's at 8,29 DCR?
If you don't yet have the aluminum heads the quick way out of this would be to go with a iron head with the Vortec style chamber and use a .015 thick shim gasket. This would give a squish/quench of .055 which is still pretty effective.
The problem this situation creates is that the parts industry makes two different pistons for a rebuild. For the Small Block Chevy these are standard compression height of 1.56 inch and rebuilder for stock replacement compression decked engines at 1.54 inch. Compression height is the name for the distance from the pin bore center to the crown of the piston. The crown being the top edge above the rings. This may be the same as the total surface as in a flat top, or it may be an edge above a dish, or an edge around a higher dome. But I compute an SCR of 9.7 to 1 with this set up which is a bit high for a cast iron head. You could go with an open chamber head at 74 ccs which would drop the SCR to 8.8 with no other changes which is a bit low.
You a bit between a rock and a hard place where you need tight squish/quench for the compression but can't get to the optimum .040 and the ratio is a bit high which needs all the squish/quench you can get. Going to a larger chamber drops the ratio under but pretty close to an optimum for an iron vortec style head. Unfortunately aluminum needs a thicker gasket to provide some sliding give to where the gasket doesn't erode the soft aluminum.
the only way that the pistons are .043 in the hole is if it has been rebuilt with typical rebuilder pistons with are .020" shorter on compression height, this would make sense since most GM engines from the factory are .020-.025 down the whole, add another .020" and it could be .043.
my suggestion would be to first remeasure, then it you are correct, to either tear it apart and build it up correctly or i guess you could try and use about a .015" shim head gasket. this would put your quench around .058, which i have seen worse.
Should be ok as 8.3:1 DCR is high enough for a street engine.
I would recheck that 0.043" measurement. seems a lot too me.
64cc heads would be much better than the 76 cc heads that came with that set up.
What did you calculate for the static compression ratio?
I'd be more worried about simply having not enough compression. 8.2 isn't terrible, but matching it with a Voodoo cam (219/227 duration IIRC) won't make any orgasms happen.
With a moderate mismatch like that, quench isn't your biggest issue. Bring that compression up to 9.5 or so and then you can start on the finer points like quench.
EDIT: Sorry, you said DCR. Delete last two paragraphs. Have a nice day
Will lack of quench cause problems with this SBC build?
I have a 1976 Chevy 350, .030 over with low miles on a fairly stock rebuild. My plan was to install 64cc alum heads and a Lunati 60102 cam to warm it up and use in my 55 Chevy. I pulled the heads off and discovered flat-top pistons .043 in the hole. If I use standard .041 head gaskets the DCR comes out to 8.3:1 with this setup. Will this work ok for street use even with the poor quench?

REVIEW: Elysium
By Derek Sante - Review Nation
follow Derek
In the year 2159, the world has become a wasteland with jobs far and few between and scavengers waiting to pick the bones of anyone weaker. Max (Matt Damon) is a survivor and a once scavenger, now with a mission to do and be better. Though these plans come to a shattering halt when he is give less than a week to live.
With little options remaining, Max must return to the underworld and his previous life in the hope of finding his way into the Valhalla of the future; Elysium. A floating world, eco-system and space station wrapped into one and made for only the privileged and super wealthy. There all disease can be fixed and all problems overcome.
His main opposition is the people of Elysium and their elected watchdog, Secretary Delacourt (Jodie Foster), all of whom don't want to share their world or medicine. As throughout time, violence becomes the only option when no other option is available. So with lives hanging in the balance, Max must make a run to prove that not only the rich or "Citizens" will be allowed to choose their fate.
Graphically, if you saw District 9, also by Director Neil Blomkamp, then you've seen the now future that is Elysium. The message this movie tries to send is not so subtle, class warfare today and the tomorrows to come. And while the action is sometimes fun, it's nothing groundbreaking. An exo-suit does not a movie make, even if its filled with Matt Damon.
Grade: C

I've played MMOs for YEARS and I've been highly disappointed as of late with the MMO scene - everything going away from a more thinking (cc, support) game to a more constant action (rush in, kill everything as fast as possible, AOE AOE) game.
I miss the days of Everquest and playing a bard with CC, support etc...
Does anyone have a suggestion of a current gen MMO with a good support class that's engaging and has some skill and/or thinking required to play?
I played WoW up to WotLK and it just lost me completely because people were doing dungeons by just running in and AoEing, took out any thinking or strategy away from the game.
I've played Tera for a bit and I liked the mystic class a lot, but I'm not sure if Tera is worth it anymore (is Tera still a budding community?)
FFXIV was fun but there was no real support, to support I had to heal, and I did enjoy the scholar class but...I don't want to be a primary healer.
Suggestions? Are my requirements too needy nowadays? .

Home > News & Events > Events Calendar > Impressions of the Accidental Senator: Lessons and Reflections about Our Changing Democracy Discovered During my Unexpected J
SESSION V (10/22/13) -- Which Party Thinks They Own Your Vote? and How Much Are There Competitors Willing to Pay for Your Vote? The 2008 and 2012 presidential elections saw record numbers of minority and young voters exercising their rights at the ballot box. The Democrats enjoyed the most bountiful part of that harvest, leading some Republicans to call for changes to the party platform to better attract and retain the diverse demographic. This week we will look at our party system and discuss what, if anything, they can do to stay relevant in our changing political world. Guests: Senator Angus King (Ind. ME) and Senator Tim Scott (R. S.C.) Littauer 166

BMW 550i Recall 13V564000
Airbag System Concern
In the event of a crash, the front passenger airbag may not deploy as expected.
BMW will notify owners during January 2014. However, remedy parts are not yet available. A second notification will be sent when parts become available, this is expected to occur during March 2014. If you don't receive notification and you feel you should, please contact your dealer for further instruction. They may ask for your vehicle identification number (VIN), so please have it handy when you call.
The front passenger seat contains a mat that determines the presence and size of a seat occupant. This input to the airbag controller helps to determine if and how forcefully the passenger airbag should deploy in the event of a crash. The detection mat can develop cracks and fail. If this were to occur, the airbag would not deploy as expected, increasing the risk of personal injury. Dealers will repair the occupant detection mat to eliminate the possibility it may crack. Additionally certain vehicles will receive and extended warranty on the front passenger seat occupant detection mat.
November 12, 2013
BMW of North America LLC (BMW) is recalling certain model year 2006 325i, 325xi, 330i, 330xi sedans and 325xi sports wagons, model year 2007 328i, 328xi, 335i, 335xi sedans and 328i and 328xi sports wagons, model year 2006-2007 525i, 525xi, 530i, 530xi, 550i sedans and 530xi sports wagons, model year 2006 760i sedans, model year 2006-2007 750i, 750Li, and 760Li sedans, and model year 2006 X5 sports activity vehicles, equipped with certain seat types. The front passenger seat occupant detection mat that determines if and how the passenger frontal air bag should deploy in a crash may fatigue and develop cracks which could lead to a system failure.
Should the system fail, in the event of a crash, the front passenger air bag would be deactivated, increasing the risk of personal injury.
BMW will notify owners with an interim notification letter in January 2014 since parts are not currently available. When parts are available, anticipated to be in March 2014, BMW will send a second letter and dealers will repair the occupant detection mat to eliminate the possibility that it may crack, free of charge. Additionally, owners of model year 2006-2007 3 Series with standard seats, 5 Series with comfort seats, and Z4 models, will receive an extended warranty on their front passenger seat occupant detection mat. Owners may contact BMW customer relations at 1-800-525-7417 or email BMW at email@example.com.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

text: The Fumie Suguri thread got me thinking. I personally think had she won the Olympic bronze in Turin and the World gold in Calgary, both which given how the competitions went down might have been within her reach had she done her ultimately most spectacular performance, she might be happily retired today rather than plogging along, now in regional competiions in Japan. Would she have turned pro, at the latest after the 2007 Worlds or Nationals, had she achieved just 1 of those 2 things. What do you think


text:
1. All guns are always loaded.
2. Never let the muzzle cover anything you aren't willing to destroy.
3. Keep your finger off the trigger until your sights are on target.
4. Be sure of your target.
What are rules and or guidelines to target practice in the desert area in Arizona. I'm going to Sedona for four days and would like to go shooting while I am there. I googled for a range and came up empty handed.
1. All guns are always loaded.
2. Never let the muzzle cover anything you aren't willing to destroy.
3. Keep your finger off the trigger until your sights are on target.
4. Be sure of your target.
National Forest land is wide open.
State trust land may not allow Target Practice, It will be posted if restrictions apply.
Private land may vary. Look for postings.
Find a good high hill as back stop reasonably clear of hard rock that would cause ricochet's.
Check the area for campers.
Do not shoot towards a road.
Stay 1/4 mile minimum from any structures.
Apply all normal safety precautions including no mind altering beverages or substances.
Now enjoy the great outdoors.
And please don't leave anything behind.
If you do happen upon a desert, do not shoot a cactus. That is illegal in Arizona.
Sedona is so crowded now that I doubt you will find any private spot to shoot weapons without causing yourself problems. There are no target shooting ranges in the area. Perhaps if you go far enough west, past the airport you might find some woods not habited. Be cautious. Perhaps you should call a ranger station for advice.
It might look like it, but deserts are incredibly fragile. There are spots of bare land in the Colorado Desert in California that were cleared 100 years ago that are still practically bare. Please don't shoot plants or animals -- there aren't many of them (compared to wetter lands) and they take a LONG time to come back.
Sorry for the conservation plug, but if you haven't spent a lot of time in the desert it's easy to think it's a barren wasteland. Well, actually some deserts are, but the Sonoran Desert (of which much of Arizona is a part) is beautiful and interesting.
Have fun.

Hey guys, I recently picked up a set of gauntlets from Bradley Fett (great work, by the way) but they are missile-less. Anyone have a spare they woudn't mind getting rid of? Even if it's flawed, I can patch it. Ping me or respond here and we'll haggle.
Also, since I'm doing an ESB-ish Fett, I don't need the ROTJ left blaster housing part if anyone wants it. I'll ship it to anyone in the US on me just for all the help I've received on the board.

Ok here goes nothing
Started my Mando build this weekend. Over the years of collecting Fett parts and pieces while also picking up odd parts from flea markets here and there. I have just about everything I need to create a full Mando suit. Im in between my Fett PP2 project and I thought why wait lets start my custom Mando build. Heres the main direction I want to take my Build in. I would like to create a Mandalorian Worrier that looks like he could have been in any Star Wars film fighting alongside Boba Fett. Yeah I know tall order for sure, Ill give it my best.
Thought I would start with the helmet. let the sanding begin
This Horn is my play on the Fett rangefinder, or sensor array
Ok back to sanding, painting


text: don't know too much about gen 3 or four. i have 4 glocks 2-27, 30, 29. one 27 has ct grips and if you practice fast draw and shoot i think you will find for just a split second you hesitate to focus on the light and not pulling the trigger. however they are great for target shooting. my ccw is the 27 without the laser becuse it has good stopping power and it is about 5 ozs. less than the 30. a lot depends on how the gun fits your hand

Complaints - general information
Complaints - general information
Useful information to help you make a complaint, equalities and statistical information.
This page offers general information about how to complain, why equalities information is important to us and provides some statistical information. Further details can be found in the frequently asked question section below. For details of the four complaints procedures please visit the following pages:
- Complain about adult social care
- Complain about children's social care
- Complain about another service (corporate complaints)
- Complain about a councillor
Why complain?
We are committed to providing a high standard of service to all our customers and our complaints procedure is seen as an important part of our continuous improvement programme. The valuable feedback you give us can help us to identify problems and put them right.
If we do not agree with your complaint (complaint not upheld) we will explain why this is the case. We hope that, even if you do not get the answer you were hoping for, you will understand why.
We know that things can sometimes go wrong. If we do agree with your complaint (complaint upheld) we will apologise and try to take some practical action to put things right. We will try to put you back to the position that you would have been in but for our mistake. We will also try to ensure that the same mistake does not happen again.
We will review the lessons learned from complaints and will share best practice across the Council. In this way your complaints will help us to improve our services and provide them in the best way for our customers.
Who can complain, how you can complain and what we will do
Anyone who uses our services or is in contact with us can make a complaint. A relative, friend or advocate can complain on your behalf, but we will need your agreement and consent to share information with them.
In the first instance, it would be helpful to raise your concerns with the people delivering the service involved, or their managers. If you do not feel comfortable doing this, you can contact us using our online form below, in person, or by phone, email or post.
It will depend on the service involved as to which procedure will be followed (see links above). In general, someone will contact you within five working days to tell you how your complaint will be handled. Some issues cannot be considered under these procedures and are dealt with in other ways.
Complaints to trading standards
You cannot use this process to complain to our trading standards service about a business, product or service. Please use the Citizens Advice online complaint tool for this type of complaint.
If you are not happy about our response to your complaint, or the way it was handled you can contact the local government ombudsman to consider it. They will expect you to have given the Council opportunity to deal with your complaint before they will investigate, but you can contact them at any time for advice.
Following the conclusion of your complaint you may be sent a short questionnaire asking you about your experiences of our complaints procedure. It would help us if you could complete and return it so that we can use this information to improve complaints handling where possible.
Unreasonable customer behaviour
We understand that making a complaint can be a very emotional process and we will do all that we can to help you through the procedure. However, we will not tolerate unreasonable behaviour from those making a complaint. Such behaviour may include (written, verbal or in person):
- Offensive sexual or racial remarks or offensive remarks about a person's disability;
- Inappropriate personal remarks;
- Unwanted physical contact or assault;
- Intimidation;
- Threats;
- Excessive swearing, foul or abusive language;
- Unreasonable persistence, for example contacting the Council many times about the same issue - see our policy on unreasonably persistent complainants [39kb].
We will tell you if we think your behaviour is unacceptable. If the behaviour continues we may limit the way you can contact us, for example only in writing.
Equalities information
In the course of dealing with your complaint you may be asked questions about equalities information. This will include things like your gender, age, ethnic background and whether you have a disability.
This information will not be passed to the person dealing with your complaint and will not affect how your case is handled (although the information is attached to your case, the case handler cannot see it). We will use this information anonymously and it will help us to ensure that all sections of the community can access the complaints procedures and are not disadvantaged in any way. It will also be used across the Council to help us build a picture of who our customers are and how we can best provide our services to cater for their needs.
We use the information gained from complaints to inform service improvements. Directorates receive regular reports detailing the complaints they have received, outcomes, timescales and so on. A quarterly corporate report is brought to the Council's management board, executive and standards committee and the latest annual report is available to download here [140kb].

Sam Phillips
Born in 1962, Phillips was raised in Glendale, California. As a child she became fascinated by philosophy and religion, primarily fundamentalism; she began writing songs at the age of 14 as an outlet for exploring her Christian beliefs, as well as for coping with family strife. In 1984, under the name Leslie Phillips, she released her first LP, Beyond Saturday Night, on the contemporary Christian label Word. Within the limited framework of the Christian rock community, Phillips became a star; her records, which also included 1984's Dancing with Danger and 1985's Black and White in a Grey World, regularly sold upwards of 200,000 copies, and she was a tremendous live draw while touring churches and coffeehouses.
With the aptly titled The Turning, released in 1987, Phillips first teamed with producer T-Bone Burnett, a renowned pop producer who also helmed Bob Dylan's voyage into Christianity. After the album's release, she publicly denounced her label as a right-wing propaganda machine, and announced her retirement from CCM; disavowing all of her previous work, she adopted the name Sam on a permanent basis and, with Burnett's assistance, landed a contract with Virgin Records. With Burnett again in the producer's seat, she emerged in 1988 with her secular debut, The Indescribable Wow, which earned vast acclaim not only for her powerful vocals, penetrating lyrics, and gorgeous melodies, but also for the record's lush, Baroque production.
Phillips and Burnett married prior to the release of 1991's darker, more experimental Cruel Inventions, which featured a guest appearance from Elvis Costello. With 1994's Grammy-nominated Martinis and Bikinis, her sound flirted closely with Beatlesque popcraft; the album's finale, a cover of John Lennon's "Gimme Some Truth," further drove the comparisons home. After making her feature film debut in the 1995 blockbuster Die Hard with a Vengeance, Phillips returned with 1996's Omnipop (It's Only a Flesh Wound Lambchop), another departure which touched upon lounge pop and industrial sounds; on the song "Slapstick Heart," she even shared songwriting credits with the members of R.E.M. Zero Zero Zero: The Best of Sam Phillips followed in early 1999.
In 2001, Phillips began rethinking her approach to music, and that year she released Fan Dance, her first album for Nonesuch Records. Produced by Burnett, Fan Dance abandoned the ornate pop sound of their previous work together in favor of spare and casual semi-acoustic settings. The album was a critical success, and a similarly styled follow-up, A Boot and a Shoe, appeared in 2004, followed by Don't Do Anything in 2008. After that release she left Nonesuch and began a project called Long Play, where she spent a year and a half releasing EPs every two months (five in all) and an album (Cameras in the Sky) at the project's end in 2011. Along the way she shared videos, outtakes, and extra tracks on her website, and self-released a compliation of tracks from the project called Solid State: Songs from the Long Play. Around this time she began working on her friend Amy Sherman-Palladino's new TV show Bunheads, scoring each epsiode, just as she did on Sherman-Palladino's long-running (2000-2007) show The Gilmore Girls. At the same time, she also began work on a new album, Push Any Button, which was released on her own Littlebox label in summer 2013. ~ Jason Ankeny

Many people dismiss "Omnipop: Its only a flesh wound lambchop" as her weakest work. I thought it very inventive, experimental and an enjoyable concept album. Especially when you consider that she was writing a lot of the material while on the movie set for Die Hard. I can only imagine what a jarring shift it would have been for someone such as she to be immersed in the vapid shallowness of Hollywood.

|Pictures by James Vyn
ACTION INNOCENCE I really admire it when fashion supports important causes, and fights to raise awarness concerning subjects that are less pleasant to discuss than shoes or hand bags. The truth of life can be sometimes quite hard to accept and that is why support and any kind of action is highly appreciated. Since big fashion labels have such a large audience, I think it's even more admirable for them to do something in order to help. James and I had the chance to take part a couple of days ago in a charity fund raiser called Action Innocence organised by owners of maison Chanel. The goal of the association is to prevent and fight child abuse not only in real life but also on the web where many dangers exist as we all know.
This charity Gala was held at the hotel Président Wilson, and for the evening 15 Christmas trees by various luxury brands have been designed : those have been auctionned during the night in order to raise funds for the association. Among the trees, were ones created by Jean-Paul Gautier, Fendi or Chanel and each tree came with a special present. I was impressed to see that everybody played the game and donated what they could. Either buy a little bracelet or support one child for a year, each and every participation means a lot. For the evening I decided to wear something very Chanel-like. My style has always been very chic and classic, I couldn't feel better in any other outfit. This felt like the perfect combination of elegance and glamour.

Home > News & Events > Events Calendar > Work-Family Policy in the US
Jane Waldfogel, Professor of Social Work and Public Affairs, Columbia University
The American family is changing, but our public policies have not kept pace. In 1967, 2/3 of American children had at least one stay-at-home parent, and only 1/3 had all their parents working. Today, because of increases in maternal employment (and single motherhood), the situation is reversed: 2/3 of children have all their parents working, and only 1/3 have a stay-at-home parent. In addition, more workers now have responsibility for elders or other dependents, due to increased longevity and smaller baby boom families. These challenges are not unique to the US, but are more acute here than in peer countries, because our public policies have not been updated to reflect them.
To meet the needs of children when parents work, and to help adults caring for the elderly or other dependents, our policies must provide more comprehensive work-family supports—paid family leave, other forms of paid leave, workplace flexibility, and child care. This is particularly true for low-income families who currently have the least access to such benefits at work and who have fewer resources with which to buy them. Why is the US such an outlier in this regard, and what might we be able to do about it?
Lunch will be provided.

Essential System Administration provides a clear, concise, practical guide to the real-world issues that anyone responsible for a Unix system faces daily.The new edition of this indispensable reference has been fully updated for all the latest operating systems. Even more importantly, it has been extensively revised and expanded to consider the current system administrative topics that administrators need most. Essential System Administration,3rd Edition covers: DHCP, USB devices, the latest automation tools, SNMP and network management, LDAP, PAM, and recent security tools and techniques.Essential System Administration is comprehensive. But what has made this book the guide system administrators turn to over and over again is not just the sheer volume of valuable information it provides, but the clear, useful way the information is presented. It discusses the underlying higher-level concepts, but it also provides the details of the procedures needed to carry them out. It is not organized around the features of the Unix operating system, but around the various facets of a system administrator's job. It describes all the usual administrative tools that Unix provides, but it also shows how to use them intelligently and efficiently.Whether you use a standalone Unix system, routinely provide administrative support for a larger shared system, or just want an understanding of basic administrative functions, Essential System Administration is for you. This comprehensive and invaluable book combines the author's years of practical experience with technical expertise to help you manage Unix systems as productively and painlessly as possible.
Æleen Frisch has been a system administrator for over 20 years, tending a plethora of VMS, Unix, and Windows systems over the years. Her current system administration responsibilities center on looking after a very heterogeneous network of Unix and Windows NT/2000/XP systems. She is also a writer, lecturer, teacher, marketing consultant and occasional database programmer. She has written eight books, including Essential System Administration (now in its third edition), Essential Windows NT System Administration and the Windows 2000 Desktop Reference (all from O'Reilly Media, Inc.) and Exploring Chemistry with Electronic Structure Methods (Gaussian, Inc.). Currently, she writes the "Guru Guidance" column for Linux Magazine. She also writes poetry and is currently working on her first novel.

Our look is the result of reader comments, our own experimentation, and feedback from distribution channels. Distinctive covers complement our distinctive approach to technical topics, breathing personality and life into potentially dry subjects. The animal featured on the cover of Essential System Administration, Third Edition, is an armadillo. This insect-eating mammal is native to South America and has spread through the southern United States. Unlike most insectivores, the armadillo has teeth-rootless pegs set far back in its mouth. These teeth allow it to supplement its diet of termites, scorpions, and other insects with snakes, poultry, fruit, and eggs.The armadillo's name, "little armored thing," was given to it by the Spanish when they invaded the New World. This "armor" is an outer layer consisting of numerous bony plates with a horny covering. This shell is hinged at the middle of the back, allowing the front and hind sections freedom of movement. In some species, this covering extends over the face and tail as well as the torso and limbs.Armadillos range in size from the great armadillo, at 5 feet in length, to the fairy armadillo, at 5 inches. The most common of the armadillos, the 9-banded armadillo, is about the size of a house cat. Leanne Soylemez was the production editor and copyeditor for Essential System Administration, Third Edition. Sheryl Avruch, Jane Ellin, Colleen Gorman, and Darren Kelly provided quality control. Æleen Frisch wrote the index.The cover image is a 19th-century engraving from the Dover Pictorial Archive. Emma Colby produced the cover layout with QuarkXPress 4.1 using Adobe's ITC Garamond font.David Futato designed the interior layout. This book was converted to FrameMaker 5.5.6 with a format conversion tool created by Erik Ray, Jason McIntosh, Neil Walls, and Mike Sierra that uses Perl and XML technologies. The text font is Linotype Birka; the heading font is Adobe Myriad Condensed; and the code font is LucasFont's TheSans Mono Condensed. The illustrations that appear in the book were produced by Robert Romano and Jessamyn Read using Macromedia FreeHand 9 and Adobe Photoshop 6. The note and warning icons were drawn by Christopher Bing.The book also still benefits from the work that Sheryl Avruch, Nicole Gipson, Seth Maislin, Kismet McDonough, Lenny Muellner, Kiersten Nauman, Dominic Newman, Clairemarie Fisher O'Leary, Chris Reilley, Mike Sierra, Ellen Siever, Mary Anne Weeks Mayo, Norm Walsh, and Frank Willison did on the second edition, and that Kismet McDonough and Ellie Cutler performed on the first edition. Edie Freedman designed the cover of the book, forever linking system administration and armadillos.

Comments about oreilly Essential System Administration, 3rd Edition:
I think this book makes an excellent reference (not just for System Administrators) with clear examples and great explanations.Usually I just use this book as a reference (search a term, get great results!) - but occasionally I'll sit down and read a section; doing so often exposes some gap in my knowledge (which this book can then help rectify), sometimes introducing a concept I'd never encountered before!In summary, an excellent reference book that I'm very happy to own!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

One Of My Favorites
By Joe
from West Liberty, WV
About Me Biologist, Educator, Scientist, Sys Admin
I was on the fence, whether this book deserves four or five stars, and had to give it five. I use this book routinely, as I am a scientist and work between different systems. This is one of my most frequently used O'reilly books, and one of the most thorough. As was pointed out by one of the other reviewers, the LDAP section could use some tweaking, but this tome is by no means "rough around the edges". This is one of my favorites. My current copy is so worn, I'm contemplating the purchase of a new one, and I have the e-book version as well. I would also recommend the pocket reference. These books are a lifesaver. Save yourself the headaches, and just BUY THIS BOOK.

Good Book for Administration in Unix and Linux
By christian_aixala
from Undisclosed
Hi, People.Is great the Appendix final 'Administrative Shell Programming'. Good Work.
Wonderful book
By jantman
It's a great book for any Sys Admin or Linux user, whether you're running one machine or dozens.While I didn't have the patience or need to sit down and read it cover-to-cover, there were quite a few chapters that I read right off the bat, and I still keep it next to my terminal. The bookmarks sprouting out from every side are a testament to the fact that it's a great reference to have handy.
Good book to have on the shelf
By Sankarshan Mukhopadhyay
I was about to rate it Definitive (5 stars) but then decided that it was Very Good. This is certainly a good book to have on the shelf. And surprisingly, the appendices have useful enough information on using the Bash shell for SysAdmin stuff. The book covers a wide range of available Linux flavors and provides inputs on the commonly used tools required by any SysAdmin. Couple it with Unix Power Tools and you have a remarkable collection of completeness.The nicest aspect about this book is that the examples are from real world scenarios or stuff which SysAdmins are supposed to be handling. The book is certainly not aimed at the beginner level and does mandate some familiarity with the tools and more importantly familiarity with the pressure situations. But once these are in place, the book is an asset.Refer to it every now and then, it is worth every minute and every denomination of currency
Not a bad read
By Anonymous
Ignore the section on LDAP and buy the LDAP System Administration book from O'Reilly; the novice will be left wondering what's wrong as the examples given in the book will set you up for a fall.

Essential System Administration, 3rd Edition Review
By crowe
I would definately recommend this book for anyone who is involved with the large-scale deployment and/or management of Unix systems.The book is laid out in a very sensible format, and covers many of the essential Unix sysadmin tasks: networking, security, kernel configuration, just to name a few. With this being said, it's certainly not a book for the novice Unix user, nor is it really targetted towards such an audience.

By Alex Belt
This book should be called Indispensable and Complete System Administration. Ok, that's an exaggeration, but not by much. No book will ever be the complete book on Unix or Linux admin, but this one has so much material in it, it will be quite some time before I start looking for material not in the book. Every aspect of System Administration is covered in this book. The material goes into details as necessary, but the author does a good job of not getting bogged down in the details or overwhelming the reader with irrelevant or arcane knowledge that only a handful of people will use. What you will find is broad and thorough coverage of the material in an accessible, easy to read style.One of the things I appreciate most about this book is the organization. Rather than listing out a bunch of technical information, each chapter deals with a specific task that a sysadmin needs to be able to do, and the information to carry out that task is contained within the chapter, rather than making references to other chapters or appendices, as is common practice.This is another book that delivers the excellence I've come to expect from O'Reilly.
By Gerhard Poul
This is a very good, but not great, book about systems administration. What I really liked was the hands-on approach for describing administrative processes the book's author uses. Although for a third-edition, there were too many bugs in it that interrupted my reading flow, so I can only rate it 'good'. (Yes, I found and submitted 10 new bugs that I hope won't bother anyone else in future releases.)

Talk about a great book, this book doesn't just teach you system administration it will help you find your own "admin techniques". This book really teaches the ART of system administration. It covers everything for every major unix flavor, and the ultimate perk is that you will be able to quickly move from say....Linux...to Solaris and you won't feel lost. Throw those other books away and just get this one!!!! My #1 tech book of all time.Florian

1) GPSNavX is the older program and not quite as capable as MacENC, which is designed to handle the NOAA free ENC vector-based charts, along with basically everything that GPSNavX did.
2) Their software works just fine, and you can just download the NOAA ENC charts. They even have a link to the NOAA ENC downloads page on their website, on the compatibility page. I'd go with MacENC btw...since it is a more capable package.
3) If your more comfortable on the Mac, use the Mac... if not, use the PC.
4) You will need a USB-to-serial adapter to get the NMEA 0183 data feed off of the Radar...but the program (MacENC) should read it.
An easy way to get the use of the same software on deck is to get an older Fujitsu 4000 series tablet computer with a water-resistant housing they made for it. That way it can withstand the conditions.. and then just use a VNC client and run a VNC server package on the Mac... Essentially, you'll be using the tablet computer as a thin-client to your Mac, which stays nice and safe down below in the cabin. Most Macs have 802.11g WiFi, and so does the Fujitsu tablet...so you can connect them together as a network, wirelessly.
Any questions about this, let me know via pm.
Bit confused on Mac options
First - I have a Mac OSX (Intel) laptop, an Win XP Laptop and a "beater" Linux Laptop - since I'm a programmer. I like the Mac best and it seems like the Mac is pretty well supported.
I'm returning to sailing after a 9 year break and am outfitting a new boat...
So - reading all this great information - I'm confused on a few things:
1) What's the difference between GPSNavX and MacEnc?
2) I can't figure out if these come with the charts I need or if I need to order MapTech charts like these
3) Is doing this stuff on a Mac just a headache? Should I just go with the PC?
4) I do mostly single-handed sailing and use radar alarms to get some sleep while off shore. Can I hook this into my mac (i.e. the radar display)? Or is that still PC only?
Since it would be nice to have this stuff on deck what are the best options for a basic chart/radar display on deck? I don't need a huge screen or anything, and reusing any software would be a huge plus. Can I get data off a system like this onto a laptop (to record where I went, etc.)? Suggestions?
|Some of the Raymarine displays can also be used as a PC display IIRC.
|Stan ...I'm with you on that...I have a Ray Chartplotter Radar at my helm and don't use my PC for navigation. I was just inquiring about the toughbook because it has been my experience that even well protected PC's are unsuitable for helm use due to the screen getting washed out in bright daylight and I wondered if any had gone to the more viewable screens used in marine electronics as I DO like to sit up top at anchor and often can't see my screen.

I have a Walkabout Hammerhead Tablet with stylus and it is guaranteed to be able to take a 4 foot fall without any harm done. The advertising even shows a pick-up truck running over it and it still works. I have all the NOAA charts of US waters on it and SeaClear Nav software. It takes my GPS NMEA input also.
Granted it is monochrome and very heavy for a 9 inch tablet, but it works fine.
It depends... If you're running Windows XP under the BootCamp option as an alternate operating system on the Mac, with its own partition on the hard drive, yes it should probably work. Switching between Mac OS and Windows XP would require rebooting the machine each time though. You could also try running it via Parallels workstation, and have Windows XP running as a "virtual machine" within Mac OSX, which is going to be slower, but has the advantage of not requiring the machine be re-booted to get to the Raymarine software. The major difference between the two setups, besides the reboot, is whether the device drivers for the Raymarine will be compatible with the OS running... Under BootCamp, I don't think it will really be an issue, since you'll effectively be using a Windows XP/Intel machine....under Parallels, I doubt the drivers will be recognized...
Mac with Raymarine
Raymarine claims their software is not compatible with the Mac OS. However, I know that the new Mac laptops use Intel chips and can run the windows OS> I have no experience with Mac, but because of years of frustration with pcs at work and home, I'm considering trying a Mac. It would be great if it could also be used on board - where I'm looking at the R Eseries.
Does anyone know if that will be compatible with the Raymarine E-series plotter and RNS software?

|Maine Sail
Why I don't use a computer..
Why I don't use a computer for navigation is easy they crash and are far more un-reliable on a boat than a plotter! My Garmin & Raymarine plotters have never once let me down. Since I started using a dedicated chartplotter I've logged over 33,000 nm and except for one lightning strike they have been as reliable as a sextant for me. My laptops on the other hand have not been so good. I was running the Captain software and had nothing but problems with my laptop... Plus I like having a display at my helm. In 25 foot vis Maine fog you can't be running back and forth to the nav station!!!
The stylus on most tablets are propietary and cost about $30.00 to $70.00 to replace. In reference to an above post about Fujitsu tablets being more reliable they are slightly more reliable tnah HP's but less so than the IBM's. My wife uses Fujitsu tablets in her practice and she's on her third in 16 months. I went through two HP's in about 9 months & I now use an IBM. So I'd say they are about equal in terms of reliability. When you try and build a unit to the lightest weight specs they break and fail. A boat is a much more harsh environment than a medical office so I still say stay away from tablets.
You can buy a Garmin plotter with all US waters pre-loaded for $500.00 clams. Even the cheapest laptop pc is $599.00 plus the software & external GPS receiver.. Boat stuff is NOT always more expensive it's just USUALLY more expensive. A plotter is much more durable than a laptop on a boat period even if it's a tough book. Oh yean and none of the tablets we own is daylight visible even under the bimini when compared to either my back up Garmin or my Raymarine C-80.....

If there was a way to pull everything together belowdecks and then pipe it up to Treo's on deck via BlueTooth...that might be a nice multiple display system.

Here's a pretty good article on the 318 with Magnum heads build.
Included in the purchase is a brand new Edl Air-Gap intake, will that work as is with these heads on the magnum? Depends on the part number, Edelbrock made Magnum and Non-Magnum versions
Will these heads work on the 318 that is in the car now? Yes with the correct lifters, pushrods, and headbolts
Going back to the purple cam, will that work in the 318? If the block is pre-'85 then yes
Included in the purchase is a brand new Edl Air-Gap intake, will that work as is with these heads on the magnum?
Will these heads work on the 318 that is in the car now? Not sure what vintage the 318 is yet...
Going back to the purple cam, will that work in the 318?
I am not familiar enough with mopar gear yet and am getting up to speed, and loving the challenge of the new project and it's possibilities
|Those are Magnum heads. There are some really nice builds using those heads on the 318. In stock form they flow more air than any of the earlier small block heads except for the W2 heads. The key to making them work on the earlier LA small blocks is that you need to use lifters that have through oiling (AMC lifters) as they use an oiling setup similar to the small block Chevy where the oil supply to the heads and rockers is through the pushrods and not through the deck to the rocker shafts like early LA's. They also have an intake mounting configuration that is unique to the Magnums so early manifolds aren't going work unless you do some mods.
I had a '74 Scamp, was a good car. 318 2-bbl. (all they had for the 318 then). Do you have a casting number for the heads?
Lightened up the image some:
Anyone else notice the similarities between the MOPAR and Vortec chambers? Plug angles are different, and the MOPAR has maybe a shade more shrouding, but otherwise kinda close.
Can you tell what heads these are?
Since I am in no rush to build the magnum motor, and if by chance the 318 has good compression, I might install these heads on the 318 and have fun - or perhaps just sell them to finance proper heads for the magnum
Glad to hear it's a roller motor, Mikey likey the idea of less friction up top
|The 1999 magnum block was a roller cam motor and the Purple shaft cam you have is not. Are the 360 heads magnums as well?
Thanks F-Bird '88 for the "build sheet" - the heads will get checked and if good will get treated to an in/out bead blast and a freshen-up of the valve seats and guides as required and new springs to match whatever cam I run. Will see what comp ratio I get with the supplied new FT forged pistons before I ink anything.
For fuel delivery I was thinking about the 1000cfm P3+ from Retrotek (www.retrotekspeed.com) with spark control when it comes out in Feb '10 rather than the 4-bbl AFB that is on there now.
The car currently has an 8-3/4" rear end, prob non-posi, but I am getting an A body Dayna 60 with posi 3rd member, perhaps it will get built and go in vs. the chrysler unit, but i was thinking 3.55s for more street-friendly gears and a slightly lower stall speed
The car also currently has 340 exhaust manifolds and x-over dual exhaust and stock, not sure what I am doing there yet either. It comes with new tires on the stock rims so I'll keep those for running around town and rolling it while I build it and decide what the final rim size/style will be - I would like 10" or bigger in the rear and will consider tubbing it
I love A body Mopar projects. Getting a lot of rubber underneath a '71 Scamp is gonna be an issue unless you tub it. We ran a '71 Dart back in the 80's and without modifying the wheel wells and using the most accurate wheel offsets we could calculate we were still only able to wedge a 9"wide tire in there.
Is the 360 a magnum or an earlier LA style 360?
|Sounds like a fun project.....the only thing I would suggest is to tell him to keep the USED cam. For what NEW cam's cost it's just not worth or even reasonable to install one....even if you get the lifters that are still matched up to thier specific cam lobes. Enjoy building it though.
360 Magnum build
OK first post here, go easy on me...
Picking up my first mopar project car on christmas day, a '71 Scamp. Fell in love with one in a parking lot on Saturday, found one on eGay Sunday morning and won the auction Sunday afternoon after a few phone calls with the seller - nice guy. There is minimal cancer and luckily a good friend is an old-time (read lead) bodyman so we will make short work of the skin job.
The car comes with a running 318 in it and a built 904 behind it, AND a prepped .030 over 360 magnum block, balanced rotating assy (crank, flat top sealed power pistons and rods aldo not installed,) 360 heads (not sure which #,) new Perf RPM Air-Gap intake, windage tray, a spare Dana 60 A-body rear with posi 3rd member and a whole bunch of other stuff - his loss was my gain; and I know that pain... The car has new x-pipe exhaust installed and 340hp factory exhaust manifolds on the 318, seems he was going for a higher-output build
Anyhow, he is throwing in a 284 purple cam (4120235) pullout, not sure I will run it, but I am considering a medium performance street/strip build. Can anyone offer any advice on the mopar cams? I almost feel more comfortable with the 268/284 (4452783) cam on a 115 LC degree'd-in but haven't decided how to go - probably want power brakes either way.
Supposedly the 904 is built and I will probably throw the Dayna 60 in there with 3.55s and stuff the fenders with as much rubber as thy can hold or tub the sucker, not sure there either.
This will be a once-in-a-while driver (read I didn't really need this car) but I want it to be fun and slightly less than practical I will probably keep the Air-Gap intake and go EFI with the POWERJECTION III from Retrotek - or put the PJ3 on my truck and the 600CFM AFB on the Scamp - not sure there either.
Any advice is appreciated, thanks for reading and here's a pic for those who like pics

COLLEGE PARK, MD. -- No. 2 North Carolina allowed its first goal in nearly 500 minutes of action Friday in College Park, Md. as No. 1 Maryland used a goal from Schillo Tshuma in the first overtime period to win, 1-0.
Patrick Mullins made a run down the left flank in the 98th minute and entered the box before firing a shot on target. The shot was deflected by Tshuma into the back of the goal.
Carolina had controlled the momentum from late in regulation into the overtime period.
The Tar Heels had a chance to put away the match in the final minute of play when Rob Lovejoy was dragged down in the box giving UNC a penalty chance.
Lovejoy took to the spot and fired a waist-high shot to the left side of the goal. Maryland's Keith Cardona guessed correctly and made the save. The rebound kicked out to the left side of the box and a waiting Verneri Valimaa who sent a shot on target that Cardona saved as well.
The chance for Valimaa was his second of the half after connecting on a strike in the 63rd minute.
Valimaa sent a shot in from distance that Cardona could not get to but the ball connected with the right post and bounced clear.
The first half saw Maryland attack the Tar Heel backline in the early going as the Terps tallied five shots in the opening 15 minutes.
Goalkeeper Scott Goodwin recorded three saves during the first 45 minutes, including a pair in the 15th minute.
Maryland's Patrick Mullins took a shot from the top of the box that Goodwin saved before the ensuing rebound was fired on target by John Stertzer whose effort was blocked.
Mullins gathered the second rebound and took another attempt to put Maryland ahead but Goodwin was there to punch the ball away to end the scurry.
After surviving the opening burst from the Terrapins, Carolina was able to link up several passes and mount an attack of its own.
Late in the first half Rob Lovejoy tracked down a ball on the left side of the box and placed a perfect backheel pass to Martin Murphy. The senior forward unleashed a shot from just inside the box that was blocked out for a throw.
Freshman Danny Garcia caused havoc in the final 10 minutes of the half when he forced a turnover in the Maryland end and entered the box before being dispossessed. Garcia was tripped up in the box and was looking for a penalty that would go uncalled.
The overtime session saw the Tar Heels control the tempo in the early portion and nearly find the game winner in the 93rd minute. Lopez attacked from the left side and sent a shot toward goal that was redirected by Craven eight yards from the goal line.
Craven's effort would find the left post and out for a goal kick. The Tar Heels continued to search for the go-ahead goal before the Terps countered and found the winner in the 98th minute.
The goal snapped a goalless streak of 491 minutes held by Goodwin and the Tar Heels and put Carolina on the losing side of an ACC match for the first time since Sept. 10, 2011 - a span of 15 straight matches.
Goodwin made a season-high eight saves on the night before surrendering just his fourth goal of the season.
Carolina will look to bounce back on Tuesday when it hosts in-state foe Campbell in a 7 p.m. match at Fetzer Field.
