Define theta[z] and z[t], then take the derivative of theta[z[t]] with

If you already know D[z[t],t] then you can simply write D[theta[z],z]
D[z[t],t] as well.

First Editorial Notes from MQB Technical Presentation this Week in Wolfsburg
by, 02-03-2012 at 04:35 PM (23050 Views)
As mentioned yesterday, Fourtitude contributing editor (and VWvortex Editor-in-Chief) Jamie Vondruska attended Volkswagen's MQB Introduction presentation this week in Wolfsburg. Though presented in a Volkswagen context, this presentation is very pertinent to future transverse Audis such as the upcoming next generations of Audi A3, TT, A1, Q3 and who knows what else. Jamie has filed some initial notes from the event and will be filing a more thorough report by next week. Below are his notes with a few modifications to tailor the text to our Audi-owning readership:

Can I use sculpey modeling clay to secure my source plug to the base for creating the mold?
I know some clays are a yay and some a nay, I cant find the ingredients on sculpey.
When the videos show how to make the divider and seal it with clay they never say _what_ clay they are using. Is it regular self hardening water based clay, oil based, non hardening oven bake, etc?
Can anyone tell me that knows for sure:)
Id wuv you forever.

Women Rock. And, they're rocking the vote from the ground game strategy to the ballot box.
The 2012 election produced historic, ceiling-breaking victories for women serving in the nation's capital. According to Rutger's Center for American Women and Politics, a record-breaking 20 women will serve in the U.S. Senate (16 Democrats and 4 Republicans) and 78 in the U.S. House (58 democrats and 20 Republicans).
In 2013, some 1,770 women will occupy seats in state legislatures across the country. And while those numbers may sound impressive, some states, including Kentucky, suffer a steep gender gap in electoral politics.
In Kentucky, we all know not a single woman is among our federal delegation. When it comes to the state legislature, 7 women (including the recent special election victory of former state Representative Sara Beth Gregory) in the 38-member state Senate and 20 women in the 100-member state House will descend on Frankfort in about 10 days to do the people's business. The Center for American Women and Politics ranks Kentucky 38th among state legislatures for the proportion of women to men.
There's a growing list of organizations and individuals determined to have more women take the oath of office in Kentucky, and more women are also working behind the scenes of political campaigns. The latter applies to Keidra King, a Louisville native who was inspired to wade into Democratic political strategy after working as a community organizer in Cincinnati in 2001 while a student at Northern Kentucky University.
Since that time, King has worked on Capitol Hill in the office of Democratic Congressman John Yarmuth of Louisville; she was a field director for the Obama for America campaign in 2008; and was the state director in Kentucky for President Obama's second-term campaign. Moreover, she can add election victories in Ohio and South Carolina to her street creds.
Keidra now works for Louisville Metro City Council and was recently named Kentucky state coordinator for the Presidential Inaugural committee.
This weekend on Connections, I talk with Keidra about working the ground game and GOTV efforts, the unpopularity of President Obama in Kentucky and how women and minorities are faring in electoral politics and policy decisions.
Tune in today at 5pm on KET 2 and Sunday at 1:30pm on KET to watch our entire conversation.

Peter Facinelli went public with his new relationship with Jaimie Alexander last month, and though he and ex Jennie Garth are divorcing, Jennie says the dating news still felt like a blow.
"I think there will come a time when it won't sting so bad," Jennie told People of her soon-to-be-ex-husband dating the "Thor" actress. "But I'm not quite there yet."

While watching the "Twilight" actor move on with someone else is still painful, Jennie said she is glad Peter seems to be content.
"I am happy that he is happy, though," she told the mag.

As for her own love life, the actress revealed she is "dating one guy right now."
"One is enough, right?" she added with a laugh.
As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, Peter filed for divorce from Jennie in March.

In November, the 38-year-old actor was photographed having dinner and later holding hands with Jaimie, 28, in New York City ahead of Peter's "Breaking Dawn - Part 2" film screening.
Jaimie confirmed the relationship last week, telling People, "It's very new to me and it's scary. But it's also something we don't want to give up on because I know how it makes me feel in my heart. It makes me feel really good."

You misspelled Rangers, it almost looks like Braves. If you correct that it looks good.
rangers? did the petition fail? I thought they were going to be called the Josh Hamiltons? he creates a team worth of offense by himself lol. thanks guys
got the painting started today:
got a little more painting finished today:
a little more progress
Thats looking pretty good. My wife did a large mural like that and I know that is a ton of work, but kids are worth it.
thanks brother, I am really looking forward to my son being born. I have several neices and nephews, but this will be something altogether different. Painting the players will be difficult , I am not skilled in drawing people . Any advice on things to get accomplished before the kid arrives? I've never done this before.
thats awesome!...
well, replace the Braves with the Red Sox, and it would be even awesome-er!
Not a big progress report , but progress just the same:
I agree with Naglium, great work too!
so, I finished up the mural in my sons nursery today...
That is super cool, brail! It looks fantastic!
here's the wall plaque I made...
That looks really good, you should paint a little boba helm in the stands watchin the game
I love that! Very cool! I can totally relate as our second son was born on Halloween and our other son is 22 months old. The older one has his own nursery we made for him and our newborn sleeps in a basinet next to our bed. Soon we are giving them both our larger bedroom and we're moving to the smaller room. This time since they'll both be older before we know it, I want to do something cool as they grow into it and out of their side by side cribs. No more baby everything...I was thinking of drawing and painting one wall with murals from every character on shows the older one likes: Super Why, Sponge bob, sesame street, etc. Then when they get older they can choose. I played sports my entire life though I became disallusioned over the years and now I'm just a big geek and so is my wife. Even still, I wouldn't be against sports stuff on walls because I can't wait for them to play little league and hockey. I started hockey at 3-4 years old so I want them to as well. When they're old enough to make their own decisions then they can do whatever they want lol.

Long stick midfielder Michael McGeary scored twice during a four-goal run that gave Colorado College a little separation, and the Tigers held on for a 9-7 victory over the University of Colorado club team on Saturday afternoon at CC's Washburn Field.
McGeary triggered the outburst when he intercepted a pass by Tyler Snyder and went the length of the field to beat CU goalie Will Brown with a low shot at the top of the crease, putting CC ahead 5-4 with 5:06 remaining in the second period.
Hunter Sprole and Brendan Gangl struck for a goal apiece during a span of 40 seconds late in the half, and then McGeary scooped up a ground ball in the defensive zone and raced 70 yards to score what proved to be the game-winning goal 6:37 into the third period.
Max Leonard pulled the Buffs to within 8-5 with twisting shot near the left post with 2:37 remaining in the period, but Carson Christman added his second goal 1:42 into the fourth period to return CC's lead to four at 9-5.
The Tigers were called for a pair of penalties with 5:16 remaining in the game and Stephen Keyes scored 12 seconds into the two-man advantage. Snyder cut CC's lead to 9-7 with 3:25, but that was as close as the Buffs would get.
Nick Kupewicz and James Blackburn gave Colorado a pair of one-goal leads early in the first half, but Christman and Toby Cohen answered to give the Tigers a 3-2 lead 1:28 into the second period.
Brendan Haas stopped a career-high 11 shots while going the distance in goal for CC. Cody Novack and Bradley Macnee combined for nine saves on 11 shots during the second half to keep CU in the game. Will Brown stopped six of 13 shots during the opening 30 minutes for Colorado.
Christman finished with two goals and assist, while James Mauk and Moses Taylor each posted a goal and two assists.
Blackburn paced the Buffs with a pair of goals, while Alex Puldy recorded two assists.
McGeary caused four of CU's 31 turnovers and added three ground balls.
Aaron Gray won nine of 15 faceoffs and grabbed a game-high 13 ground balls for Colorado.
Colorado College had a 46-29 advantage in total shots, including a 24-18 edge in shots on goal. CC converted on three of 11 man-up opportunities, while the Buffs were 1-for-9.
The Tigers are idle until March 16 when they begin the Division III portion of their schedule by playing host to McDaniel College.

Today I had to access the internet. Without an existing internet connection. So I did what I used to do for many years. I dialed in.
Which worked OK. Yes, a bit slow. Yes, I had to wait what seemed like forever for an email to be sent. But it worked.
But would you choose to dial in if you didn't actually have to even if you could?
Which is the same question I have about the SAP BI benchmarks. Oracle recently made claims on a Fujitsu server with the new "Nehalem-EX" processor. The benchmark used was the SAP BI Data Mart benchmark. The data mart scenario is one use of the Business Intelligence capabilities of SAP NetWeaver. The data mart contains a static snapshot of operational data. Multiple users run queries on this data in 10 InfoCubes which contain 2,500,000,000 records. IBM last published on this benchmark in 2008.
The newer and more sophisticated SAP BI benchmark is the SAP BI MXL benchmark where IBM recently published leadership POWER7 results. The mixed load scenario also demonstrates the Business Intelligence capabilities of SAP NetWeaver. In this scenario however, query activity and load/update activity are executed in parallel. Multiple users run queries on data in 10 SD InfoCubes using the following size categories for the initial data load: 300 million records or 1000 million records or 3000 million records. In three phases during high load activity, static operational data is extended with delta data.
Why would you choose to demonstrate leadership with your software on a brand new processor with a less sophisticated and intensive benchmark? When the results can not be compared with POWER7 results? Would you choose to dial in if you didn't have to?

Marc Jacobs' uncanny ability to correctly guess today what people will want to wear tomorrow has brought him success and admiration since his student days at Parsons in the 1980s. A celebrity in his own right, this New York City-based fashion designer and bon vivant is known as much for rebelling against the fashion establishment as for reverentially referring to beloved styles of the past. As part of Marc Jacobs, his signature high-end fashion line, Jacobs offers a collection of handbags that epitomize taste, quality, and big-city sophistication. Those who seek the ultimate in luxury will adore the Prince: a sleek 100% ostrich bag with a five-figure price tag (Jacobs also makes a significantly less expensive calfskin version) and an interior roomy enough to hold a change of clothes. Other popular Marc Jacobs bags include the quilted lambskin Stam and Little Stam bags, the leather Victoria structured tote, and the Bitty — a classic crossbody purse with a fold-over flap. Even more bags are available through Marc by Marc Jacobs, Jacobs' diffusion line.

My previous blog posting was about book, audio, and video reviews at www.booklistonline.com, the website for Booklist, a journal of reviews published by the American Library Association.
When I recently browsed this website, the "Review of the Day" was for Nic Bishop's recent book, Butterflies and Moths. As many Kalamazoo families know, Nic lives here and has done many family programs for us at central library and branches. His photos are breathtaking, pretty amazing. He "gets up close" is an understatement.
It is wonderful to see a local author receive such well deserved national recognition and especially one who is such a good friend to KPL!
Check out his books. If you aren't familiar with them, you'll discover a new favorite children's author.

Thomas Vermaelen believes Arsenal are on the cusp of their toughest game of the season.
The resurgent Gunners travel to Manchester on Sunday afternoon to face a City side currently leading the way at the top of the Premier League table, having dropped just seven points so far this season.
Although the league leaders lost their first game of the campaign against Chelsea on Monday night, Vermaelen believes Roberto Mancini's team are title favourites.
"You're playing against the top team in the league so it will be a massive test for us away from home," he told Arsenal Player.
"It'll be a nice game because we play against a top team. At the moment they are having a good run, they haven't lost this season apart from on Monday. I think they are the favourites for the title."
You can watch the full interview with Thomas on Arsenal Player.

I have found that adding two cups of apple cider vinegar to a warm bath does wonders for my skin! After adding the vinegar to my bath water recently, I just sat in the tub for about 15 minutes. I did not use any soaps, etcetera, while in the tub to prevent any of the products from mixing in the water. After sitting for 15 minutes I got out and my skin felt great! In fact, my skin felt so good that for the first time in a long time I didn't even moisturize and was able to go straight to bed. I am not in the middle of a flare-up, but no matter what, I always have dry skin. I recommend an apple cider vinegar bath for those who may need a moisture boost, and it is even good for those who have flared up. It is very soothing. Hope this helps!

Arsenal Football Club is delighted to announce a pre-season friendly against Portuguese side Benfica, to be played in Lisbon on Saturday, August 6 - kick off time 7.45pm.
The Gunners will be taking on the 32-time Portugese Liga winners at their 65,000 capacity Estadio da Luz in an evening match. This will be the first time the teams have played each other since 1992, when Benfica recorded a 4-2 aggregate victory in the Second Round of the European Cup.
At stake on August 6 will be the Eusebio Cup, launched in 2008 in honour of the Benfica and Portugal great. Eusebio himself usually presents the trophy to the winning team - last year Arsenal's rivals Tottenham claimed the prize after a 1-0 win over the hosts.
Arsenal's pre-season preparations for the 2011/12 season also include an Asia Tour in July, with friendlies against a Malaysia XI in Kuala Lumpur on Wednesday, July 13 and Hangzhou Greentown in China's Zhejiang province on Saturday, July 16.
A trip to Germany to take on FC Cologne follows on Saturday, July 23, before the Gunners' return to north London to host the Emirates Cup 2011. Arsenal will play Boca Juniors and the New York Red Bulls on Saturday, July 30 and Sunday, July 31 respectively in the two day tournament at Emirates Stadium, which also features Paris Saint-Germain.
Details of how supporters can attend pre-season fixtures will appear on Arsenal.com and in Arsenal publications over the coming weeks.

For the convenience of Freedom From Religion Foundation members interested in attending the "Save Women's Lives: March for Freedom of Choice" April 25 rally in Washington, DC, the Foundation will be holding a dinner party the night before, and offering a marching contingent. The dinner party will be held at 6 p.m. on Saturday, April 24, at the Phoenix Park Hotel, 520 North Capitol Street, NW, Washington DC 20001. Participants are offered entrees from the kitchen of this acclaimed Irish-run hotel. Dan Barker will entertain at the piano and there will be a featured speaker (to be announced). Also for the convenience of Foundation members wishing to attend the Sunday rally, the Foundation has reserved a limited number of rooms at the conveniently-located Phoenix Park Hotel. Foundation members are invited to assemble in the lobby of the Phoenix Park Hotel if they wish to march as a freethought contingent. The room rate is $149.00 single or double occupancy (there is a $20 extra person charge for triple occupancy rooms). Rooms are being held for the dates Friday, April 23, Saturday, April 24, and Sunday, April 25, to meet the varied needs of participants. Hotel reservations must be made by Tuesday, March 23, 2004. To be assured of a room at this rate, the hotel encourages you to make your plans well in advance. You can reserve rooms at the Phoenix Park Hotel "Book A Reservation" link online at www.phoenixparkhotel.com. Select your date and enter the following internet group code: 8058. If you prefer to phone, call toll-free: 1-800-824-5419 and use a different in-house group number: 5054. The hotel is across the street from Union Station, and is a short taxi drive from the Reagan DC airport. Valet parking is available at $25 per day or $6 per hour. Participants may prefer to stay at other hotels and make their own arrangements, but are encouraged to return to assemble at the Phoenix Park Hotel lobby by 9 a.m. on Sunday, April 25, to march as a freethought contingent. Bring your own signs; the Foundation has an official rally banner. The hotel is within walking distance of the Mall. The march is being sponsored by the National Organization for Women, the Feminist Majority, NARAL/Pro-Choice America and Planned Parenthood, and is to be a "historic action to send a message that women will not go back to the days of back-alley abortions." Roe v. Wade, the 1973 Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion nationwide, hangs by a swing vote. The April 25 rally is a follow-up to the 1992 March for Women's Lives, which attracted 750,000 people. "Today even more is at stake--birth control, emergency contraception, international family planning, and even scientific research," said NOW. "The primary opposition to birth control and abortion has always been organized religion," noted Foundation president Anne Gaylor, who was an early activist for abortion rights. "Were it not for the combined lobbying of Catholic, fundamentalist and Mormon denominations, we would not be facing this relentless war against reproductive rights. These freedoms depend on a clear separation of church and state."

The theory of evolution is a distorted ideology that denies the fact of Creation and maintains that all of life emerged as the result of blind chance. The adherents of the theory of evolution claim that life emerged through a chain of coincidences. That is the essence of Darwin's writings, and all the Darwinists who have come after have made the same claim. Therefore, someone who sincerely believes in Allah must realize and admit that evolution and Creation are two diametrically opposed concepts. Evolution believes in blind and unconscious chance, while Creation reveals an unbounded Mind, the absolute might of Allah.
The theory of evolution is not a scientific fact; it has been refuted by all fields of science and totally conflicts with the accounts of Creation of the revealed religions. The theory is also explicitly refuted in the Qur'an and is absolutely incompatible with the fact of Creation revealed in the Qur'an. The same truth is also explicitly set out in the Gospels. We are told in the Gospels of Allah's infinite might and the diametrically opposed error that people fall into.
For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools and EXCHANGED THE GLORY OF THE IMMORTAL GOD FOR IMAGES MADE TO LOOK LIKE MORTAL MAN AND BIRDS AND ANIMALS AND REPTILES. They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—Who is forever praised. Amen. (Romans 1:21-23, 25)
The Gospels explicitly sets out the foolishness of those who fail to appreciate the infinite might of Allah and make idols out of animals by believing in the lie of evolution.
The theory of evolution maintains that living things turn into other life forms by supposedly developing under the impact of mutations. According to the theory of evolution, the transition from one species to another happened slowly and gradually. Accordingly, a number of supposed transitional forms must have existed reflecting the period of transition between two different species and with characteristics from both. For example, according to what evolutionists' maintain, as fish emerged onto dry land and turned into amphibians, various living things with semi-lungs and semi-gills, semi-legs and semi-fins must have existed over a period of millions of years. Evolutionists call these imaginary live forms that they believe once existed in the past 'transitional forms.' However, NOT ONE FOSSIL OF A TRANSITIONAL LIFE FORM HAS EVER BEEN FOUND.
THERE ARE NO TRANSITIONAL FOSSILS. The 'transitional life forms' in the picture never existed.
The passage from the Gospels that reads "EXCHANGED THE GLORY OF THE IMMORTAL GOD FOR IMAGES MADE TO LOOK LIKE MORTAL MAN AND BIRDS AND ANIMALS AND REPTILES"may be a reference to Darwinists believing in the existence of these imaginary creatures they call 'transitional forms' and thus denying the incomparable nature of Allah's creation and our Almighty Lord's sublime and immaculate creative power and omniscience. Allah knows the truth. The fact is, however, that every detail emerging from an examination of the skies, the earth and all living things is proof of Allah's might and power. Allah is the Lord and Creator of all. This is revealed as follows in the Gospels:
For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by Him and for Him. He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. (Collosians 1:16-17)
Almighty Allah has warned Christians who follow the Gospels of the danger of the theory of evolution and against this grave deception and threat. Contrary to what many people believe, believing in the truth of the theory of evolution is not harmless. With the perverted ideas at their roots and the atheism they bring with them, Darwinist and materialist ideology are the main reasonfor the bigotry, degeneration, perversion, racist killings and genocide over the last 150 years, and even of the two disastrous world wars in which 350 million people were killed and martyred. People would have to admit they are not true believers in order to support such a conception.
Sincere Christians must see the dimensions of the threat posed by Darwinism by recognizing this danger described in the Gospels, must wage an intellectual struggle against this harmful ideology and eradicate its freedom of action. They must realize that Darwinism is the greatest scientific fraud ever invented against belief in Allah and must adopt a determined stance against this scourge that has spread among people to such a surprising extent. Superstition is absolutely certain always to be condemned to decay and fade away. Darwinism, which poses such a threat, will also, as our Lord promises, meet the same fate. Those who are instrumental in this happening will, by Allah's leave, be true believers. As our Almighty Lord says in one verse:
That is because Allah is the Real and what you call on apart from Him is false. Allah is the All-High, the Most Great. (Surat al-Hajj, 62)2010-09-05 02:18:20

The war on terror all too often provides excuses for forces of authority to justify coercion and intimidation to gain control over people. Five Muslim community workers charge MI5 resorted to blackmail in an effort to get them to become informers. They claim the choice was either work with us or face deportation, harassment or detention. Three of the men say they were detained at airports while on trips back home to visit family and then returned to the UK. MI5 agents interrogated them and offered the choice of working with security forces or facing the consequences. According to Adydarus Elmi, an agent named Katherine said: "if you do not want anything to happen to your family you will co-operate."
Another Muslim community worker, Mohamed Nur, was told if he didn't work with MI5 they would inform every airport where their plane flies that they are on the list of terrorists which would mean being detained, imprisoned and probably tortured.
At this point, there are claims by five Mulsim community workers and a lot of denial from authorities. The only solution at this point is for an independent investigation.

I'm currently quite taken with the new Fox TV series The Americans, which features a chameleon-like Matthew Rhys and a kick-ass Keri Russell as deep-undercover KGB spies. They live an apparently normal family life in 1980s suburban cold war America, while unbeknownst to their two American-born children, they conduct brutal covert operations for mother Russia. A recent episode called "Trust Me" exposed the perilous shifting sands of trust in their relationships. It is a world where no one is quite what they seem to be, and every character is constantly reevaluating whom they can trust. It is exhausting. Because without trust, every decision or action is a risk.
This holds true not just for human relationships but also for brand relationships. In both, trust is the cornerstone. Brand trust makes purchasing decisions easier, quicker, and less risky. I choose Amazon because I trust that it will deliver the product I want when I want it. I trust that my Neutrogena sunblock will protect my skin. I trust that my Starbucks coffee will taste good. I recently attended an event hosted by the Marketing Science Institute (MSI) on the topic of "Building Trust In A Digital Age." MSI seeks to bridge the gap between marketing academic and business worlds, by bringing together marketing thought leaders from both realms to research and discuss big meaty, marketing topics. For the Boston Spring session, attendees debated the nature of brand trust and how it is driven and measured. A couple of highlights:

I like a lot of alternative spellings which people I know would say are wrong, but which are so perfect and legit. I don't know if I feel guilty about 'em but they would certainly get me a lot of grief.
Spellings I prefer
Gillian Love this one! I know some people try to change the pronunciation, but I pronounce Jillian and I prefer this spelling.
Elisabeth I prefer this Gemanic spelling to Anglo one. Also would be easier to get to Ilse, Ilsa, and Elsa nicknames.
Isobel I love this spelling. Probably wouldn't use it, but I would pronounce it with more of an o sound.
Jayne Wouldn't be able to use it, but this spelling is spunkier and funkier and sassier than Jane.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
i didnt think trolls could be so angry... i wonder if he has the whole tie dye color hair like the ugly plastic trolls have...
As for traction problems, im guessing hes using spare tires on his mustang (stock pinto actually)
or maybe hes one of those honda drivers thinking 120hp in a 3000 car is a hotrod?
Grow up
So, your not a Troll? I could care less. So, your not a Troll?
Rat Rods Rule!
|Alot of people dont know alot of things, If the people who try to help cant see through a little BS and get to the problem they should bother trying, This guy may have heard or may be experiancing traction problems, Mustangs are nose heavy by nature and are light in the rear, so most mustangs, even stock 302's spin easily, and FYI I had a 82 GT with a 302 boss, it wasnt a real Boss and it was a factory 2V, I may just have been a marketing ploy, but in fact it had the Boss sticker on the air cleaner..Im not perfect and so I cant expect everyone else to be either, I come to this place to help and be helped with the problems I encounter with the life of being a hot rodder..I try to treat other members as I would want to be treated, I feel you just cant insult someone because you dont like what they say, I feel embarrased by this, when I first joined this place I got some nasty PM's for posting on different subjects, like Chevy and ford motor questions, I know how to build a ford, and I also build chevy's, and for my knowledge I was labeled a troll, well it really P'oed me and the guy who sent me the PM got an ear full..Live and let live I always say, I wont uphold anything or anyone who doesnt make an effort, this guy has stated he doesnt know and want's to learn, so I feel there is room for some tolerance for honesty... 2wld4u

You should move to Canada Buds, apparently we have many people that share your views here already. Make yourself at home, try Alberta. I know a great guy there who would put ya up for free and give you all the bud you can smoke, you could live in his Mom's basement. Send Dave an e-mail, sounds like you guys have much in common.
Seriously though, I have read all your posts and although I think you are genuine in regards to ownership of the car etc. I do think you are not being quite as honest about other aspects of your profile...such as your age? If you think we will think less of your because you are young and inexperienced you are wrong, we will think less of you if you continue to think you are fooling anyone here.
Come-on man, lighten up and be honest with us, no one can fault you for that. The car needs work obviously and you need help but don't know how to ask for it, posting about problems with traction control when it appears you may never have driven the car regularly is a dead end road that ends with everyone jumping on you...me included.
Your at a crossroads right now, you can join us and have some fun and learn a little about cars or you can continue on this path of petty deceit, I can tell you where that roads ends. Let me give you an idea of what everyone here is thinking, please someone correct me if I am wrong.
Your a young guy with a decent Stang that needs a lot of work, you have managed to take it out on the road a couple of times and are having trouble with the car spinning the tires on take off because you have stuck front brake calipers that are holding the car back, It appears that the car has been sitting for some time from your pics hence the corroded calipers. Someone (the seller) may have told you that the car was equipped with a Boss 302 and you now know that was a lie, I know it hurts...many of us here were taken in much the same way when we were kids. The good news is you got what you paid for, $700 is not out of line for what you got there, absolutely nothing to be ashamed of. The couple dress up items are a nice bonus, the valve covers and carb alone will set you back at least $200 bucks (the carb looks new, did you just buy it?) if you had to buy them. You have no idea of the type of suspension or even where to begin back there, pretending you know is not the way to go about it. Take some time and crawl under the car and have a good look at what you got, I once spent an entire day under my first car (I was 14) just looking at what did what and what it was for. It was time well spent and I was too young to even drive it legally.
Am I that far off? If I am please accept my apologies but this is what you have portrayed to us seasoned veterens through your posts, how do we know?
We were there once, thats how. Take that chip (or should I say boulder) off the old shoulder and come clean, I promise I won't say another word, It's all up to you now.
P.S. please leave the flames for the tailpipes, I've got little left of my eyebrows and would like to keep what I have.
Kool your jets newbie, and learn like the rest. There are plenty of veterans here that are very helpful. Nothing wrong with a 302 in a 'Stang. You siad you paid 700 bucks for the car, so that was a good deal. You also said you had a C-6 that you helped rebuild or had rebuilt?
Please explain this rear end/rear suspension problem? You are saying it has no leafs or coils, and only shocks? I think there has got to be something other than shocks back there, or your back end would be hitting rock bottom when you hit every little stone in the road. You also said it isn't running right now...please explain how you got from uncontrollable spinning-out to jack stands now...I mean, you aren't doing a good job of filling in the empty spaces.
It would really help if you could post a pic of the rear end from the underside with your camera in focus. Give us a little more to go on, and don't get upset if you get chided.
I just biotched out another guy that came up with an unbelieveable story. We get a lot of "youngsters" here with nothing to do other than start crap amongst us. We are working on filtering out the fools. But the protocol here is the same as it is elsewhere...we show respect when we're new and don't act like we own the place. Nobody owes you any answers...what you get is free, and over time, you'll find, its quite valuable. So like I was saying, unless you are calm and clearly explain yourself, you really don't want us to use "our imaginations" to piece your words together. We all have been stung in the *** by TROLLS lately, and its better that we don't use our imagination.
Take a chill pill...PUULLLLLEASE use spell check...and take your time to be as clear as you can. OK?
Go to the lounge i interduced myself there!!!!
LOL Yup it is funny ...Cause it dont take much to get to me..You all can have all the fun you want guess.It dont look like i have much of a choice...
P.s nothing wrong with bud i just dont hide it like most people..Drink a beer man more people die from that every year than most any other drug..And what about all those kill by drunk drivers.....You guys are something else..You just think its ok to drink cause the goverment says you can..Only reason they say you can cause they make big money on beer!!
|4 Jaw Chuck
Well, thats one way to introduce yourself to an internet forum full of your peers...asking for help and advice.
Lets get him drunk!
I'll get the lipstick and nailpolish.
Sorry Bumstab, you have to admit...it's pretty funny!
I just had a revelation that will solve your traction problem Weedwizard101.
From your attachment it appears your Boss has the original freon compressor...
Just turn on the A/C inside the car...that'll slow her down some.
Put it on MAX COOL for best effect.
Dump city, here we come...
My car is **** ..But the motor and tranny is good..Its a project car and i hope to be driveing it in 2 weeks..Anyone else want to get in on it..This is starting to become Fun
|Do you think he left the car on the jack stands? That would cause a lot of wheel spin.
SEEYA! BYE BYE! Don't let the door knob hit'ya where the good lord split'ya.
Your post sounded more like you were bragging about your car than anything. You failed to show a picture of the part in question (the rear end or lack thereof). Instead you showed us a picture of your "Boss" in an attempt to prove to us how "awesomely powerful" it is and how that must be the problem. You sound like every other kid who says "Yep, it's a four bolt main!", like that means it's totally awesome.
Now, why don't you give us some real info other than "Yep, it's a Boss!" and we can better understand why your experiencing the "traction problems" you're having. Otherwise, all I see is a pretty much stock 302 in a '79 Mustang and I can tell you that it's no drag strip warrior by far. In other words, put up or shut up, but if you wanna get all butt hurt over this and troll out on us then go ahead. Just remember, the ball is in your hands you can either take a little ribbin' and go with the flow, or act like a baby.
I'm no Hotrod hero by any means, but I can sniff out a line of BULL a mile away.
I'm sorry you're so touchy, trust me I won't bother you anymore. I will tell you this though, go back and actually read the posting guidelines, they can help immensely in your case.
Oh yeah, in reference to your little PM to me, there's more than just one like me in this crowd, we all smell a line of bull a mile away.

Free personalized radio that
plays the music you love
Lisa Loeb
Lisa Loeb & Nine Stories began to gig around the Midwest, playing at Austin's South by Southwest seminar in the process. Loeb then hooked up with producer Juan Patiño, and in early 1992 released the cassette-only Purple Acoustic Tape, which she sold at her band's shows. Several major labels showed interest in Loeb's pop/rock songcraft, but she remained unsigned by late 1993, when her friend Ethan Hawke asked her to contribute a song for his next movie. Hawke passed along a copy of "Stay" to his director, Ben Stiller, who inserted it onto the soundtrack for Reality Bites. Released as a single in May 1994, it reached number one two months later and eventually sold over 750,000 copies in America. Loeb & Nine Stories received a Grammy nomination for Best Pop Performance by a Group, and won a Brit Award for Best International Newcomer.
Geffen Records, which had shown interest in Loeb before "Stay," signed her later in 1994 and re-teamed her with Juan Patiño. Her debut album, Tails, was released just over a year after her signing, and proved successful with commercial radio as well. Firecracker appeared in 1997, scoring another hit with "I Do" and climbing to gold certification like its predecessor. Tours with the Wallflowers and Chris Isaak followed later that summer, as well as a stint with Lilith Fair. Five years later, Loeb returned with a third effort and her debut offering for A&M, Cake and Pie. She co-produced the album and collaborated with an impressive cast, which included Glen Ballard, boyfriend Dweezil Zappa, Randy Scruggs (Vince Gill, Sawyer Brown, Waylon Jennings), and Peter Collins (Bon Jovi, the Indigo Girls). Lead-off single "The Way It Really Is" was a moderate hit among college radio, and "We Could Still Belong Together" was included on the soundtrack to Legally Blonde. In mid-2002, Loeb switched labels once more after inking a deal with Artemis. She relaunched Cake and Pie under the title Hello Lisa, which featured Sanrio's signature Hello Kitty artwork on the cover, that November. The Sanrio/Loeb union proved fruitful, as it coincided with the cutesy character's popularity boom in trendy Hollywood.
For her next trick, Loeb reunited with old college pal Elizabeth Mitchell for the children's music album Catch the Moon, which featured a pleasant mix of traditionals and originals. Although it didn't include the single of the same name, The Way It Really Is was the title of Loeb's follow-up album in 2004, her first for the Zoe label. Meanwhile, the television show Dweezil & Lisa premiered on The Food Network in January of the same year. It followed Zappa and Loeb throughout their daily activities as rockers and food lovers; moreover, it paved the way for another Loeb-centric TV show, #1 Single, which premiered in 2006 after her breakup with Zappa. The Very Best of Lisa Loeb arrived in 2006, having been released one year prior in Japan. After issuing the Cherries EP in 2007, Loeb delved into her back catalog and emerged with The Purple Tape, which she had originally released on cassette in 1992. Reissued in 2008 as a two-disc release, The Purple Tape combined ten solo recordings with an extended interview. It also prefaced the release of Camp Lisa, which marked her second children's album. ~ John Bush

The Golden Gate National Parks BioBlitz is an exciting opportunity for anyone interested in science and nature to accompany experts on a biological field inventory in the parks. Inventories will focus on a wide range of different taxonomic groups, including birds, insects, and plants, and there will also be less specific inventories that explore all that lives in a particular part of a park. No matter what inventory you are on, you will have a great time out in the field learning, exploring, sampling, and documenting the parks' stunning array of living diversity.
Below are some useful resources to help you prepare
Every participant (or parent/guardian of a minor) must print, sign, and turn in the liability waiver at check-in before participating in a BioBlitz inventory. Printed copies will also be available at check-in if you forget.
Safety First
All inventory participants will need good hiking (close-toed) shoes, a hat, layers, water, long pants, and a snack. Please note any special information in the inventory description.
Important Points for Field Inventory Participants
- All minors (under 18) must be accompanied by a responsible adult.
- In general, inventory teams are best suited for ages 8 and older. There will be many hands-on and educational activities at the BioBlitz Festival that will appeal to all ages, including younger children.
- Plan extra travel time to accommodate for traffic. Also, many of the roads are windy and require reduced speed. Please check in at least 20 minutes before your team is scheduled to depart.

By Richard Clarke
Arsène Wenger believes that his Arsenal side will become their old creative selves once they have regained full confidence.
The Frenchman has steered his team back into form after a patchy start to the campaign. A victory against Stoke on Sunday would mean they have won six of their last seven fixtures, and three inside eight days.
However there is a perception that Arsenal have sacrificed some of their famous panache in order to grind out points.
At his usual pre-match press conference on Friday, Wenger preached pragmatism but maintained that the style would return as soon as the team regained its old poise.
"[Our football] doesn't trouble me too much at the moment," he said.
"But you will see that, with confidence, this team will be very creative.
"I do not want to convince that we play in a fantastically eye-catching way at the moment but I believe as well the critics have gone a bit overboard.
"We have played exceptionally well in the past and they are used to that kind of game. Now, because we have bad results, people have just put in their mind that we have a bad team.
"However if you analyse deeper our games and, if you watch them again, then although we have some improvements still to make it is not as bad as people say.
"We had to become a bit more stable defensively. After you concede eight goals it's always a shock for a team.
"But we have gone through a stage where we had first to settle down again and be more stable defensively.
"When we get our confidence back we can be more eye-catching than we are at the moment."

Warford, Williamson, Dupree Named All-SEC by Phil Steele
Dec. 12, 2012
LEXINGTON, Ky. - Three University of Kentucky football players have been named All-Southeastern Conference performers by Phil Steele's College Football, the publication announced Wednesday.
Senior offensive lineman Larry Warford headlined the honors as a second-team performer, while junior linebacker Avery Williamson and sophomore linebacker Alvin "Bud" Dupree were named to the third team.
Warford, who earned third-team All-America honors Tuesday from The Associated Press, has now earned five All-SEC honors. The talented offensive lineman has already received praise this season from SEC coaches, AP, CollegeSportsMadness.com, ESPN.com and CBSSports.com. He is the first UK O-lineman to receive All-SEC accolades for three-consecutive seasons since Warren Bryant in 1974-76.
This is the second honor for Williamson, who was also named second-team All-SEC by CollegeSportsMadness.com. Dupree, who was named a second-team Sophomore All-America by CollegeFootballNews.com, was also named a third-team All-SEC performer by CollegeSportsMadness.com.
Warford received high praise throughout the season from the UK coaching staff for playing with amazing skill up front. He did not allow a quarterback sack all year, grading at 90.3 percent for the season and totaling 48 knockdown blocks.
The native of Richmond, Ky., ended his UK career having played in 47 games with 37 consecutive starts. The senior was named SEC Co-Offensive Lineman of the Week after UK's win over Kent State, handling blocking responsibilities on KSU's star lineman Roosevelt Nix. In the game, Warford collected eight knockdown blocks and graded out at 91.7 percent.
Warford began the season on the Outland Trophy and Lombardi Trophy Watch Lists. Warford led the UK offensive line, being named game captain five times throughout the season. Warford helped UK tailbacks earn 4.9 yards per carry during the season, including rushing for 342 yards against Samford.
Williamson ended the season first on the team in tackles with 135, including three sacks, 4.5 tackles for loss, four pass breakups, two fumbles caused, one fumble recovered, one interception and a quarterback hurry. The high tackle mark ranks him second in the SEC and sixth nationally in tackles per game. The best game of Williamson's career game this season against Vanderbilt when he recorded 20 tackles to become the first UK player to record 20 or more in a game since Chad Anderson in 2003.
The native of Milan, Tenn., followed his 20-tackle performance with 13 tackles against Samford, becoming the first UK player with 13-plus tackles in four consecutive games since Randy Holleran in 1990. Williamson also had two sacks and a pass breakup against Samford. Williamson posted 10 or more tackles in eight games during the season, including 12 or more in seven games.
Dupree had a breakout year for Kentucky in 2012, finishing second on the team in tackles with 91. The native of Irwinton, Ga., led the team in quarterback sacks and tackles for loss with 6.5 and 12.5, respectively. Dupree's best game came against Tennessee when he posted 10 tackles, one sack and three tackles for loss. The sophomore posted a career-high 12 tackles against Western Kentucky. Dupree started all 12 games this season and has had a sack, tackle for loss, fumble caused, fumble recovered or pass breakup in 13 of the last 16 games he has played.

Coriander is indigenous to the Mediterranean and the Orient and is related to the parsley family. The leaves of this plant are the herb cilantro and the seeds are the spice coriander; their flavors do not resemble one another. Coriander has a sweet, spicy and woody aroma, with a mild sweet taste that contains a hint of orange and citrus. It's used in pickling spice and in specialty and Belgian beers.

Please join us for this weeks "Carr Talk and Coffee," where students, faculty, and staff can get together and discuss their work/interests in an informal setting. Coffee and donuts provided, and will be followed by a presentation from Leonardo Vivas, Carr Center Associate: A Backlash Against Human Rights in Latin America? After democratization began in Latin America after around 1978, one can isolate two periods: one, corresponding to the establishment of democratic regimes across the board, where human rights advanced at a quick pace; and a second, where the trends are more mixed: advances in some areas, setbacks in others. So, can we speak about a backlash?

When the No. 2 Republican in the U.S. House losses on primary day, you better believe the party is going to take notice.
Sure, Virginia is one of those odd states that lets anyone in on that day to vote, no matter what the party affiliation.
And yes, his opponent, a political rookie named Dave Brat, ran an effective campaign with much support from the Tea Party.
Still, Eric Cantor's 10-point loss June 10 was a shot heard around the political world, one that will continue to resonate through the other fall primaries and into the General Election Nov. 4.
Republican leadership will now jostle roles, trying to figure out who will become the new No. 2. Cantor was, by all accounts, in line to take over as Speaker of the House.
So what does his loss tell us?
Locally, it probably doesn't mean much.
Republicans are likely to still roll through the ranks this November in a mid-term election that is thick with government distrust, healthcare fiascos and other Washington, D.C. shenanigans that usually lead to turnover in these elections.
But more and more, Republicans are doing the unthinkable – running against those in their own party during primary elections, most often to further an agenda.
The Republicans and so-called Tea Party members are only on the same page for so much. Sure, they own some of the same ideology. And they are certainly united against thinking from the Democratic Party.
But in a lot of ways, they are as different as Republicans and Democrats.
Some in the Tea Party feel like the political machine in the Republican camp has lost its way, forgoing some of the staunch conservativeness that accompanied the likes of Ronald Reagan.
Heck, George W. Bush spent like a Democrat. It's hard to really drill down on any differences between the two parties in today's political environment.
With a book coming out soon and loads of speaking engagements ahead of her (because, you know, she's broke…) Hillary Clinton is looking more and more like the Democratic favorite to run in 2016.
The Republicans have been down this road before, the road of indecision, in-fighting and partisanship among its own party.
While that is going on, the Clintons are moving ahead full force.
The Cantor loss shows us the party isn't ready to address what's really wrong. Problem is, they are running out of time.

The Dresden Dolls
The name Dresden Dolls was, in part, inspired by a song from British punk band the Fall, but it also acknowledges Palmer and Viglione's German influences; Dresden, after all, is a German city that was bombed extensively during World War II. However, Palmer doesn't sing or write in German; all of her vocals and lyrics are in English. But even so, the Dresden Dolls' Weimar-era influences are impossible to miss -- not only because of their music, but also, because of their physical appearance. When Palmer and Viglione (whose colorful live shows helped them acquire a small but enthusiastic cult following in and around Boston in the early 2000s) perform together as the Dresden Dolls, their clothes and makeup provide a look that is half goth and half Weimar-style burlesque -- a look that successfully unites the cultures of different countries and different eras.
Like their attire, the Dresden Dolls' clever, darkly theatrical music draws on an unusual variety of influences. Marlene Dietrich and Kurt Weill have influenced the Dresden Dolls, but so have alternative rockers ranging from Tori Amos to PJ Harvey to the controversial Hole founder turned solo artist Courtney Love. And just as the New York City-based, London-born singer/songwriter Nellie McKay has no problem reminding listeners of Doris Day one minute and Alanis Morissette or Randy Newman the next, the Dresden Dolls know how to make their combination of influences from different periods sound perfectly natural and organic rather than forced, pretentious, or contrived.
In 2003, the Dresden Dolls' A Is for Accident (a collection of live recordings) was released on the Important label; that CD was followed by their first full-length studio album, a self-titled disc that came out on 8ft. Records in 2004. The next year, the tour/video compilation Paradise was released, and Yes, Virginia..., the band's second album, arrived in 2006. The similarly titled No, Virginia... followed two years later, collecting the duo's B-sides and outtakes and pairing them with five new songs. ~ Alex Henderson

Prime Minister Julia Gillard is facing renewed pressure to answer questions about her ''professional integrity'' as a solicitor in the 1990s, with new claims that she was involved with the mortgage on a property partly paid for with stolen union funds.
As Fairfax revealed online on Thursday evening, Ms Gillard told her law firm partners at Slater & Gordon in 1995, she knew nothing about the mortgage on a Fitzroy property, bought partly with union money stolen by her former boyfriend, despite having been involved in the mortgage arrangements for the property two years earlier.
A 1993 bank letter confirms that Ms Gillard - then a salaried partner with law firm Slater & Gordon - received an insurance certificate of currency, which was required for approval of a $150,000 mortgage provided by the firm's loan department.
A West Australian fraud squad investigation in 1996 found the rest of the purchase money - more than $100,000 - had been siphoned from a union association by Bruce Wilson, Ms Gillard's then boyfriend and a senior Australian Workers Union official.
The Prime Minister was adamant today that the documents did not reveal any wrongdoing and said the Opposition and media had failed to provide any specific question to answer on her conduct.
She said the documents were related to a Slater and Gordon mortgage and certificate of insurance and were not to do with union accounts or "slush funds". She said the firm asked her recollection of the document 17 years ago and it had been 2 1/2 years old then and she could not recall it.
"We are are talking about a file that I was not the solicitor or partner for and the question is: where does it take you?" Ms Gillard said.
Ms Gillard has consistently denied she did anything wrong or personally benefited from her assistance setting up the Australian Workers Union Workplace Reform Association for Mr Wilson and his union associate Ralph Blewitt, while working as a lawyer.
Ms Gillard has, however, previously conceded the association was a slush fund that Mr Wilson and other union officials used to fund their re-election campaign.
On Friday, Opposition Leader Tony Abbott called on Ms Gillard to provide a ''full and frank and candid explanation'' of her dealings in relation to the fund and of her ''professional integrity'' as a solicitor.
He told Channel Nine Ms Gillard had been ''stonewalling'' in the face of repeated questioning about the fund.
''I think all of us would be happy to give the Prime Minister the benefit of the doubt, but in order to do that she has to give us a full explanation and what we've had from the Prime Minister over the last several weeks is just a lot of stonewalling,'' Mr Abbott said.
Mr Abbott's comments follow Deputy Opposition Leader Julie Bishop's pledge to pursue Ms Gillard about her AWU dealings when Parliament resumes for its last sitting week of the year next week.
A spokesman for Ms Gillard told Fairfax on Thursday that she stood by her statements in the 1995 interview with Slater & Gordon partner Peter Gordon and had no recollection of seeing the bank correspondence.
The spokesman said the conveyancing for the Fitzroy property was handled by other staff at Slater & Gordon.
Former Slater & Gordon partner, Nick Styant-Browne, who released the extra section of the transcript of Ms Gillard's 1995 interview with the firm's partners to Fairfax, gave his first television interview last night.
Mr Styant-Browne said that while there was a ''spectrum'' of views across the firm's partnership, there was ''deep disquiet'' about Ms Gillard's conduct.
''There is absolutely no doubt that Ms Gillard not only knew of the Slater & Gordon mortgage in March of 1993, but was specifically involved in taking steps to facilitate that mortgage,'' he said on 7.30 on Thursday night.
''Now, that's a matter of documents; it's not a matter of assertion or hearsay. Now, you then have a situation where two and a half years later in September of 1995 Ms Gillard is asserting that the first she heard it was a Slater & Gordon mortgage was in August of 1995. Now, it's up to others to make the judgment about her credibility.''
When asked if Ms Gillard was asked to resign from the firm, Mr Styant-Browne replied: ''It was never necessary for the partnership to resolve that issue because Ms Gillard herself elected to resign.''
Mr Blewitt, who has returned to Melbourne from Malaysia, where he now lives, is set to meet Victorian fraud squad detectives on Friday morning to give a detailed account of the misappropriated funds.
''I just want to go back to Malaysia and live in peace and forget the whole bloody thing and see what happens,'' he told Macquarie Radio on Thursday. ''Let the cards fall where they may.''
Mr Blewitt has previously admitted he engaged in fraud with Mr Wilson, who was then AWU Victorian secretary, by issuing bogus invoices and receiving hundreds of thousands of dollars during the 1990s.
It is also reported that police from the West Australian fraud squad are considering reopening their 1996 investigation into the AWU fraud and that they have been in contact with Mr Blewitt.
Shadow Treasurer Joe Hockey said the claims called into question the Prime Minister's credibility, saying it ''sounds like'' there should be a formal inquiry.
''The significant issue is - is the Prime Minister now telling the truth?'' he told Channel Seven.
''People are raising these issues because they are saying that the Prime Minister's story has been entirely inconsistent.''
Environment Minister Tony Burke dismissed the suggestion.
''We're talking about someone who was a lawyer who may have been involved in doing conveyancing for a client,'' he said.
Workplace Relations Minister Bill Shorten said the issue was not beginning to damage the government.
"It's not relevant to the job [Ms Gillard] does now," he told Fairfax Radio on Friday.
"I actually think that what matters in Australia at this time is strong leadership, that's what we've got."
He said that people were not interested in issues from 20 years ago and that he would struggle to remember documents he saw 20 years ago.
"No one has asserted in 20 years that the Prime Minister has done anything illegal," Mr Shorten said.
"What I do know is she went out with someone who was doing the wrong thing ... and they broke up."
With AAP, Deborah Gough
