My experience with SCT SF3
It's been about a month and a half since I got my SCT tune for my 2002 SVT, first I downloaded strategy tune, felt great for the first two or three days, then started to go back to the sluggish mode, and a slight smell like gasoline. Engine light turned on, the read was error code PO171, system too lean, so following some advises I changed gas filter, got injectors cleaned at a fuel injection lab, changed cables, check plugs (and gapped to .055). but strategy program seemed to have a timnig issue, for that gasoline smell.
so I went back to stock for a couple of days to see if that smell was gone, and so it was.
after that I proceed to donwload the custom tune for 93 octane. car felt greater than with stratregy tune, very porwerfull and very noticeable in the low to midlle range. BUT!!!!!!!........, and here's the big BUT, the charm only last about three days,then the car starts to lose that agressivity and becomes almost as if it wasn't tuned so I need to disconect the battery to reset ECU and have a fresh start again, what the hell!!!!does all SVT do the same? or is mine f..ed up???
with the custom tune there is no more PO 171 error code but instead this two codes appears
> 02 heater (htr - 11 )
> ckt ( b1, 52 )
> obd system readyness*
> test not complete
it the altitude of my city a factor? about 5000 ft above sea level
I would contact your tuner , whoos tune do you have ?
don't know the tuners name, I got it thru a friend in Venezuela
To be blunt as I allways am , your tuner is like most on the SVT Focus and doesnt have a clue what he is talking about , My guess he sent you a value file and hoped for the best
I would also guess he hasent asked for a log of things to see what the issues are ???
you need to drop that other guy and get with tom and his tune.tom's tune the shit i had it before my predator got stollen out of my car.tom when i get the money im going to buy another one for sure.
If you have a flasher , I sell a custom tune for 150.00 and that comes with free update tunes as you add more mods and I will help you get it running right and go over the logs with you
What's the max octane level you get in GDL?
It wouldnt be an octane problem if thats what your thinking , I can get 92 here and everything in Mexico is Pemex there the ONLY gas Co. here Government owned so more then likely he can get 92

The Running Roman
Jason Swiney
4/25/2008 / Short Stories
Smatterings of blood trailed the figure sprinting through the streets of a waking Jerusalem. Early morning merchants and yawning olive farmers treading toward the gates met the fearful runner in the narrow passages of the Lower City. Those who leapt aside too late found themselves looking up from a cold, damp ground.
The sprinter's face was battered and unrecognizable. Only the remnants of a tattered tunic and the glistening plates along his belt identified the man as a soldier. A Roman soldier. A Roman soldier running for his life through the streets of Jerusalem.
A wave of killers rolled behind him. Gaining in strength. Gaining in speed. It roared with the stampeding echo of heavy footfall, the clanging of armor, and the cry of crisp commands. The wave shattered the serenity of morning and shook the city from its sleep.
The fleeing soldier heard nothing.
He ran through unpaved streets slanting dangerously downhill.
He ran through the market knocking over pottery and ricocheting off fruit stands.
He ran through the pain of a scabbard-slashed thigh and a dagger-ripped shoulder.
He ran toward home.
There would be no rest until his faltering vision focused on the gentle faces of the twins. Perhaps his left eye was swollen shut from the beating. Perhaps it was forever useless, punctured by a random blade during the commotion of an improbable, perhaps miraculous, escape. He didn't know. Nor did it matter.
Only Primus and Annia mattered.
And only death could stop him, but death had failed so far.
The wave of killers rolled on.
The sprinting soldier began to hear them, to sense them, to feel their presence.
His weary mind formed a prayer to an unfamiliar God.
"God of Jesus, God of Peter, I have seen your work. I am unknown to you. I am Annilas the Roman, and I need you. I ask for strength, I ask for speed. Please deliver me to my Primus and my Annia. And I'll give you...I'll give...I'll give the little that is left of me."
He asked for nothing more.
He only ran. Like a man ferried by unseen angels, he ran.
His feet became no match for his speed. Losing his balance, he stumbled and skidded along the unforgiving roadway. Bits of earth latched to his blood-streaked body as he rolled. The new wounds screamed and flamed his adrenaline. Springing to his feet like a pursued animal, the running Roman quickly regained his stride.
The killers rolled on. Gaining. Always gaining.
The sprinting soldier never slowed as he approached his home. He lowered his shoulder and smashed into the thick wooden door. Tumbling across the threshold, he landed face down upon the dusty floor. As he struggled to lift his head, two young voices cried out in fear at the hideous figure.
"Primus, Annia, it is me."
"Father?" replied the boy. "Father, oh father, is that you?"
"Listen to me for you must know!" insisted Annilas, straining upward to his hands and knees.
"Forget all that I have taught you. Last night I guarded the one called Peter, the follower of Jesus the Nazerene, and his God took him. Took him! Do you understand?"
His children did not answer. Annia, the girl, his beautiful girl, grabbed a cloth and bent to wipe his filthy, wounded face.
"Listen my loves, listen. Last night Peter told me the truth and I scorned him. But his God is real. Sixteen of us kept watch. Bound...locked away...Peter's God rescued him! You must know, and you must learn the way of Jesus. For it is true, it is true!"
The wave of killers rumbled outside their home.
Annilas sat back upon his heels and bowed his head.
The twins watched as their father's body released all rigidness. They listened as he spoke words of thanks to an unseen friend. They embraced as the wave's rising roar drowned out his final words. They screamed as the Roman soldiers spilled savagely through the open doorway. They shut their eyes beneath the submerging chaos.
And they wept as the wave subsided, realizing their father was with them no more.
Acts 12 (NIV)
Then the angel said to him, "Put on your clothes and sandals." And Peter did so. "Wrap your cloak around you and follow me," the angel told him...In the morning, there was no small commotion among the soldiers as to what had become of Peter. After Herod had a thorough search made...he cross-examined the guards and ordered that they be executed.

Samsung Galaxy S3 - Andriod 4.0 ICS with TouchWiz
Sony Xperia S - Android 2.3 (4.0 ICS update incoming) with Timescape UI
These phones will both run Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich one day, but at present the Xperia still runs its grandpappy, Android 2.3 Gingerbread. Each phone has a custom user interface plastered over the top of Android. The Samsung Galaxy S3 has TouchWiz, and the Xperia S the Timescape UI.
For most people, the benefits come down to how these interfaces look and feel. In keeping with the serious, stylish look of the Xperia S, Timescape is a relatively severe, angular-looking thing. Its widgets tend to have sharp edges, and translucent grey panels abound rather than bright colours. There are some 3D animations going on here too, although thankfully they don't slow the phone like the did on Sony Ericsson's early Androids. It also packs-in Sony-specific software like Music Unlimited and Video Unlimited.
A quick glimpse at the Xperia S UI in action
The Samsung Galaxy S3's TouchWiz is altogether less serious-looking. Bright and more-colourful, it clearly cares much less about looking cool than the Sony alternative. Similar widgets are included, though, covering basics like clocks, social networking and calendars. Samsung also includes its own software suite. Top picks include the Siri-like S Voice app, which you can talk to when you get lonely - or ask to book appointments and open emails - and S Beam, which transfers files between devices using both NFC and Wi-Fi.
Samsung Galaxy S3 - MHL microUSB, 3.5mm headphone, microSD, Wi-Fi Direct, Bluetooth 4.0, NFC
Sony Xperia S - microUSB, HDMI, 3.5mm headphone, microSD, Wi-Fi Direct, Bluetooth 4.0, NFC
Predictably, the Samsung Galaxy S3 and Sony Xperia S cover all bases on connectivity, but their approaches are ever-so-slightly different. The Samsung does not offer a dedicated video output, instead using an MHL-enabled microUSB port. This is a relatively recent innovation in phones, and lets the port output HD video and surround audio.
A dying breed - on-body HDMI
Opting for the more traditional route, the Sony Xperia S has its own HDMI port, which can also output video and audio to a TV. Of course, in palm-to-face fashion neither phone comes with the cable you need to hook up the phone to the TV, which is an annoyance. Head over to eBay or a bargain electrical retailer, though, and you can pick one up for a few quid.
Other basics that feature in both include Wi-Fi Direct, which lets you transfer files between compatible devices without needing a broadband connection, and NFC. The Samsung Galaxy S3 makes particularly good use of NFC, with its S Beam feature, designed to make transferring files using it and Wi-Fi dead easy.
Samsung Galaxy S3 - 8MP, LED flash, 2MP user-facing
Sony Xperia S - 12MP, LED flash, 1.3MP user-facing
In pure spec terms, the Xperia S is the clear photographic winner. With 12 megapixels to its name instead of eight, they should be in different leagues. At review, though, we were disappointed with the Xperia S camera. Low light performance isn't great and the pictures didn't "pop" as much as those of the iPhone 4S. It does offer some extra modes such as Panorama, though.
We're yet to fully test the Samsung Galaxy S3 camera, but early impressions are good. It's very quick, and offers advanced features such as Best Shot, Burst Mode and HDR. Samsung has a history of producing great smartphone cameras in its high-end phones, and with any luck the Galaxy S3 could jump to the top of the phone camera rankings.
Battery life
Samsung Galaxy S3 - 2100mAh
Sony Xperia S - 1750mAh
The Sony Xperia S has battery of lower capacity than the Samsung Galaxy S3, but thanks to a 0.5in smaller screen, it'll equate to roughly similar battery life. We're looking at a day and a half's solid use out of each - not bad for an Android device.
However, we'll be giving the Samsung a much more thorough road test in the coming weeks. You won't get a full week out of it, but with a 2100mAh battery in tow, there's a chance it'll noticeably outperform the Sony. Keep your eyes on TrustedReviews for the Galaxy S3 review.

Re: ROTC PROGRAM?Mandy Runnalls Oct 11, 2013 1:07 PM (in response to Stephen Walls)
Hey Stephen!
ROTC is pretty cool how it works at MSOE. Although it is not run directly here on campus we actually just head over to Marquette University (about a mile away) to do the ROTC program. That way, you complete your degree here at MSOE and still get to experience another campus too!
From what I have heard from students who participate in ROTC seem to really enjoy it!
I know one person to consider reaching out to is DJ Finkes. He might have some good thoughts as well!
Hope this helps
Re: ROTC PROGRAM?DJ Finkes Oct 11, 2013 7:54 PM (in response to Stephen Walls)
Hi Stephen,
My name is DJ Finkes and I am a Senior Mechanical Engineering student at MSOE. I have been involved in the Naval ROTC program throughout my tenure at MSOE. Like Mandy Runnalls said the majority of the ROTC obligations take place at Marquette. The basics for each program (Navy/Marine Corps, Army, and Airforce) include physical fitness a couple times a week, wearing the designated uniform at least once a week and attending leadership training sessions.
For the Navy ROTC my weekly life goes as follows:
MONDAY: Physical Training (PT) in the morning then a Naval Science class at 0800. Taught by one of the unit staff officers
TUESDAY: Drill Practice. Typically the beginning of the semester and is halted after attending a drill competition
WEDNESDAY: PT and class
THURSDAY: Uniform day, have to be in the respective uniform from 0800 to 1600 and a 2 hour drill period (briefs and training) from 1400 to 1600
FRIDAY: class at MU at 0800
There are additional requirement but this is the basis for the involvement in the program. The big focus is academics first followed by physical fitness.
If you have any questions feel free to message me here, or by email at firstname.lastname@example.com.
DJ Finkes
Hello I am a junior and high school and this year I'm joining the national guard this year and I want to know does MSOE have an ROTC program and what is it like?

experience with Bevel tools?
Posted 29 April 2012 - 04:40 PM
What I am looking for is real-time experience and pros and cons by a user. Thanks
Posted 29 April 2012 - 07:54 PM
I think the Van Gilder tool you are looking for is actually his edge rounding tool . . . basically a chamfer tool used in woodworking to round sharp edges, not for beveling/mitering edges for scoring, slipping, and joining.
Posted 29 April 2012 - 09:22 PM
I make my own . . . 45, 60 and 30 degrees. With a little application of geometry, it was not hard to figure out. I used some thin/narrow scrap wood, thin wire, and two small washers/wood screws. I started out using them for making boxes from hard slabs, where I wanted a wider, stronger seam than just a plain butt joint and a clean cut. I had tried using an exacto knife, but that was not accurate or consistent enough. I now use them even on soft slab vessels. The 60 degree tool really allows for a smoother join of two slabs with little evidence of the overlap and a nice wide surface for getting a good join. Mine are among the essentials of my hand-building tools.
I think the Van Gilder tool you are looking for is actually his edge rounding tool . . . basically a chamfer tool used in woodworking to round sharp edges, not for beveling/mitering edges for scoring, slipping, and joining.
I have also made my own bevel tools when teaching. I made multiples of the same tool by gluing 3/4 inch stock of different widths together. cut into 3" L shaped blocks, and add a cutting wire in a notch. These were very stable and worked well.
Posted 29 April 2012 - 09:34 PM

Am I correct in thinking that these L-shaped tools (pic1) are used with the clay edge standing vertically? as opposed to the design in the second pic, which is used with the clay edge on a flat surface.
Imagine that this is a cross section and that it could be 2-5 inches long, depending on how you want to use it. If you had made one 2 feet long you could cut it into 2" sections and have a ton of them for classroom use. Change the dimensions for different angles. Some of them I built I used a threaded insert, drilled a hole through a thumbscrew and inserted the wire ends-tighten and its works fine.

Thanks Pres. My damaged brain (real injury) has trouble with neg/pos, directional thinking. Makes me nuts sometimes!
No problem, my visualization skills are great. . . .I'm waiting for the rest of me to catch up.

According to the authors, "Think Indiana Jones meets the Maltese Falcon. Except Indy is a woman and there's no falcon, only chickens. It takes place in Silverville, where anything is possible. An ordinary Colorado mining town that may sit on converging ley lines that punch holes in everyday reality, that cause extraordinary coincidences and the occasional UFO sighting. And now: a curse!"
The book has already received a nomination for the Colorado Book Award in the category of Young Adult Fiction, said Larry Meredith, publisher of Raspberry Creek Books. "But the book is also friendly to adults," he said.
The Todds said, "We wanted the second book to be different from the first – not the same song, second verse – so we added new characters in a situation that's more along the lines of a paranormal adventure-comedy."
The first book in the saga, The Silverville Swindle, was chosen as the One Book/One Valley reading for the Gunnison Valley in 2007 and was nominated for the Colorado Blue Spruce Award in 2008. The Washington Center for the Book placed Swindle on the recommended reading list for the Library of Congress. Both books are available in area bookstores, along with Mark Todd's science-fiction novel, Strange Attractors, also nominated for the Colorado Book Award for the category of genre fiction. The Todds' books are also available on Amazon.com as trade paperbacks and e-read, at Barnes & Noble and in a widening circle of independent bookstores.
Meredith said in the near future the press will release the first Silverville book under a new title, Little Greed Men, and will also publish the third book in the series, now being written by the Todds.
Kym O'Connell-Todd, a 1990 Western graduate in Communication, served for years as features editor for the Gunnison Country Times and later worked for both Lycos Top News and NBC's Internet division. She's currently a freelance graphic designer and webmaster for one of the largest RV tour companies in the world.
Mark Todd has taught Creative Writing and Literature at Western for 25 years and serves as director of the university's MFA in Creative Writing program. He stages community- and university-affiliated creative writing events and conferences for the region.
Following the reading, Savage Library will sponsor a reception and a chance to have the authors autograph copies of the new novel. For more information, contact library director Nancy Gauss at 943-2278.

th 350 problems
Ok guys I was out in my chevelle having a good time playing around and trying to put the power to the ground. I blew up my rear end ok not a problem that I was not expecting. So pull it into Canadian tire parking lot get a tow home. Nothing hurting but some pride and my diff.
As pulling the chevelle into the garage at home I tell a friend of mine to pull it out of park before proceeding to pull it in with my come along. Up to this point everything worked fine. He tells me that he cant get it to go past reverse. Ok so he just doesn't know how to work my shifter, he should it's only a B and M quicksilver pretty basic. What every I blamed it on stupidity ( we all have brain farts once in a while). So tonight I go out and was sitting behind the wheel and was going to play a little while I'm waiting on parts( go through the gears once or twice) I can't shift past reverse. "what the he11" so take it all apart make sure shifter is working right. YUP. Make sure the cable is free and I didn't bend anything external. EVERYTHING IS GOOD. So I have come to the conclusion that it is internal within the trans. Any ideas because I'm transmission impaired. Last time I had one apart was to change the pump gear and that was not the best experience. That bent clutch and pump gear still hangs on the wall as a reminder not to do that again.
If you have a idea what could be causing me not to shift past reverse. would I be able to do the fix my self or is that a no?? I should be able to do it if it is basic, but beyond that I need a good reference material.
sorry kinda got long winded telling the story

Femme Fatale!
A femme fatale (pron.: /ˌfɛm fəˈtæl/ or /ˌfɛm fəˈtɑːl/; French: [fam fatal]) is a mysterious and seductive woman[1] whose charms ensnare her lovers in bonds of irresistible desire, often leading them into compromising, dangerous, and deadly situations. She is an archetype of literature and art. Her ability to entrance and hypnotise her victim with a spell was in the earliest stories seen as being literally supernatural; however, the femme fatale today is still often described as having a power akin to an enchantress, seductress, vampire, witch, or demon, having some power over men.
Model an EMPOWERED female character from used in Film, Video Game, Cartoon or TV Show. Mash-up of character an actors are also welcomed (Imagine Audrey Hepburn as Cat-woman, Or Angelina Jolie as General Maximus)
The idea of this "mini-challenge" is to simulate an impossible deadline for a project. The artists will have at their discretion how detailed the models they will be working on, what program they will be using, the amount of models, and if the models will be shaded/ rigged. But the model will have to be original interpretation of a dynamic scene done from scratch.
A big part of the challenge is that the modeler will have to scavenge all the reference for the vehicles he or she wishes to model. But at the end of the challenge the final model will have to look like a scene that we might see in a Film/TV/Gaming magazine.
DEADLINE! MONDAY , April 8th 12:00 PM
YOU HAVE TWO MONTHS do the challenge.
There are Four ways to participate:
- Single Character
You can Model whatever fem me fatale you want
- Character Series: This type of entry requires you will try to do as many characters from an individual franchise.
For Example:
Batman: Cat-woman, Poison Ivy, Harley Queen, Bat-girl
Sucker Punch: all the girls in the team.
- Diorama: You may the appropriate environment for your Character
Some examples:
Lara Croft inside a temple
Alice from Resident Evil inside zombie Layer
- Mashups
Mashup of character an actors are also welcomed
Some examples:
Audrey Hepburn as Cat-woman
Angelina Jolie as General Maximus
So lets recap....
The key is to model one or more characters EMPOWERED women in a period of 2 months . The idea of this "mini-challenge" is to simulate an impossible dateline for a project. The artists will have at their discretion how detailed the models they will be working on, and the amount of models, and if the models will be shaded/ rigged. But the model will have to be work of the artists interpretation.
A big part of the challenge is that the modeler will have to scavenge all the reference for the film models. But at the end of the challenge the creature(s) have to look like the one shown on film.
What is the HARDCORE MODELING CHALLENGE?
The idea of these HARDCORE MINI CHALLENGES is to push the modeling skills participants while learning from the past. To get past preconceptions of the limits of digital art. To push digital artists into the world of sculptors & artisans. But we will have variety on these mini challenges. Sometimes we will sculpt a model based on a masterpiece, but on other times we might do Jet fighter or a landmark....
The only thing that will be consistent is the SHORT DATELINES.
At the end of the challenge, the participant should have a finished collection of entries. Keep in mind contest of high difficulty you will have TWO MONTHS to do the challenge, but the rewards, even if you don't win, will be your improved skills in speed and accuracy.
Detailed RESEARCH, and attention to detail are key for ALL entries. Please before doing an entry do your homework.
The best model will be selected by an open vote
for these categories:
- Best WIP thread
- Best Model Collection (2 or more)
- Best Diorama
- Best Model
designed by me.

Purpose: To explore the role of the neighborhood environment in supporting walking
Design: Cross sectional study of 10,286 residents of 200 neighborhoods. Participants were selected using a stratified two-stage cluster design. Data were collected by mail survey (68.5% response rate).
Setting: The Brisbane City Local Government Area, Australia, 2007.
Subjects: Brisbane residents aged 40 to 65 years.
Measures Environmental: street connectivity, residential density, hilliness, tree coverage, bikeways, and street lights within a one kilometer circular buffer from each resident's home; and network distance to nearest river or coast, public transport, shop, and park. Walking: minutes in the previous week categorized as < 30 minutes, ≥ 30 < 90 minutes, ≥ 90 < 150 minutes, ≥ 150 < 300 minutes, and ≥ 300 minutes.
Analysis: The association between each neighborhood characteristic and walking was examined using multilevel multinomial logistic regression and the model parameters were estimated using Markov chain Monte Carlo simulation.
Results: After adjustment for individual factors, the likelihood of walking for more than 300 minutes (relative to <30 minutes) was highest in areas with the most connectivity (OR=1.93, 99% CI 1.32-2.80), the greatest residential density (OR=1.47, 99% CI 1.02-2.12), the least tree coverage (OR=1.69, 99% CI 1.13-2.51), the most bikeways (OR=1.60, 99% CI 1.16-2.21), and the most street lights (OR=1.50, 99% CI 1.07-2.11). The likelihood of walking for more than 300 minutes was also higher among those who lived closest to a river or the coast (OR=2.06, 99% CI 1.41-3.02).
Conclusion: The likelihood of meeting (and exceeding) physical activity recommendations on the basis of walking was higher in neighborhoods with greater street connectivity and residential density, more street lights and bikeways, closer proximity to waterways, and less tree coverage. Interventions targeting these neighborhood characteristics may lead to improved environmental quality as well as lower rates of overweight and obesity and associated chromic disease.

|Genetic: Polymorphisms measured
Detailed Description:
While the onset of symptomatic cardiovascular disease (CVD) typically occurs in middle age or later, the development of the underlying pathology is clearly a long-term process, and early-state lesions having been identified at autopsy even in children. Understanding the course of CVD risk development from childhood into middle age will clearly be valuable both in understanding the pathology of CVD and in targeting preventive measures most effectively. Furthermore, while genetic factors are agreed to play a significant role in the development of CVD, most genes contributing to interindividual variation in CVD risk will have relatively small effects on risk for any given individual, even though their aggregate effects contribute significantly to CVD risk in the overall population. Relatively little is known about the effects of genetic variants on the course of CVD risk factor development in individuals over time. The Bogalusa Heart Study (BHS), which began in 1973 as a study of CVD risk factors in children but evolved to cover the development of CVD risk factors from childhood into early middle age, offers an unparalleled resource for investigating the genetic factors influencing within-individual changes over time in quantitative factors, such as serum lipids and blood pressure, related to CVD risk.
Approximately 1500 individuals who were examined in the BHS on at least three separate occasions over a period of up to 20 years, and who consented to participate in studies of genetic factors influencing CVD risk, will have genotypes measured at selected loci either known or strongly suspected to affect interindividual variation in CVD risk. Longitudinal multilevel regression will be used to measure the effects of variation at these loci on quantitative CVD risk factor profiles within individuals and to determine whether some gene effects on CVD risk variation are age-dependent.

Reflections on Dutch Landscapes from Rembrandt to Van Gogh
In-Gallery Talk
Featuring Joan Greer
Thursday, April 11, 7 pm
Exhibition Space, Main Level
$15 / $10 AGA Members
Purchase tickets>
This in-gallery talk will discuss Dutch landscapes, paying particular attention to art from the latter part of the nineteenth century. Professor Joan Greer will examine individual works in the exhibition, including landscapes from Hague School artists Jan Hendrik Weissenbruch and Hendrik Willen Mesdag, as well as the master of seascapes (and teacher of Claude Monet) Johan Barthold Jongkind, and the most renowned Dutch artist from the period, Vincent van Gogh. These works, which are related to the celebrated landscape tradition of the "Golden Age" of seventeenth-century Holland, are similarly founded on realist principles of close personal observation of the physical world, indicating concerns connected to topography, the natural sciences and national identity. They also sometimes function on a metaphoric level, encoding autobiographical and religious meaning, and underline politicized notions of a non-elitist, accessible art form that could speak to all people.
Joan Greer (Ph.D., Free University of Amsterdam) is Associate Professor in the History of Art, Design, and Visual Culture, Adjunct Professor in Religious Studies, and member of the Science and Technology in Society Interdisciplinary Program at the University of Alberta, Canada. She serves as editorial advisory board member of Victorian Review. Her research centres on 18th-, 19th- and early 20th-century European (especially Dutch and Belgian) art with a particular focus on the convergences of art and design discourses with those of religion, radical politics and early environmentalism. Areas of concentration include theories of genius and constructions of artistic identity; representations of Christ; Vincent van Gogh; art and design periodicals; and constructions of nature. Outside the main subject area of Europe in the long nineteenth-century, Joan Greer also deals with the history and theory of sustainable design and the material culture of music.

Ripple Vase by Oodesign
So beautiful and so naturally a flower in the vase by Japanese designers looks! Company 'Oodesign' has created an unusual vase that has a wavy surface of transparent plastic, giving the impression of small ripple on the water. To heighten the effect the Ripple Vase should be put in a container with water, to merge two substances. Beautiful flower becomes more attractive when it floats by itself in 'invisible' vessel. The company's products reflect its purpose: 'Our goal is to find a new discovery that materials and shapes create'.

text: Johannesburg - Secunda is to benefit from affordable internet as fibre infrastructure to the value of R16m will soon be deployed in the town. The roll-out, part of local infrastructure provider Dark Fibre Africa's (DFA's) R3.5bn national fibre network, will increase bandwidth and reduce internet costs significantly, the company said in a news release on Thursday. "DFA will not only launch towns such as Secunda into the digital age, but will also bring significant investment into these outlying areas. "Furthermore, the socioeconomic benefits of fibre-optic networks are vast, as affordable broadband contributes to increased economic activity." DFA provides the open access dark fibre infrastructure that enables licensed mobile operators like Vodacom Group [JSE:VOD], MTN Group [JSE:MTN] and Cell C, as well as internet service providers (ISPs) like Internet Solutions and MWEB, to give communities access to the network. The company's CEO Gustav Smit is optimistic about prospects for small to medium businesses. "Being at the forefront of fibre roll-out in South Africa, DFA already has the fibre infrastructure to connect consumers to the rest of the world," said Smit. Expansion of communications infrastructure brings about new business opportunities that are dependent on broadband, added Smit. "Open Access broadband also stimulates competition within the telecommunications market, ultimately reducing internet costs. DFA is here to provide a long-term sustainable solution to the local community." More importantly, the competitive advantage and productivity gains of broadband are enormous. Municipalities are able to provide electronic services, education levels improve with access to information and communities have access to eHealth and eLearning. Smit points to the international submarine cables such as SAT3, SAFE, Seacom, EASSY and WACS as a key ingredient for a viable fibre network. "You then need fibre to submarine landing stations. This is already in place with companies like Telkom, Neotel and Broadband Infraco offering fibre links from landing stations to major metros, along with intercity links." Smit said South Africans simply don't know what 20Mbps or 100Mbps to the home means. "An opportunity needs to be created for users to test drive serious broadband and ISPs need to play a leading role in mobilising communities," said Smit. - Fin24

About MeNever when I was just a young girl watching Next Top Model did I ever think I'd want to be in their positions--they made it look so easy! After I got home from my my first shoot I brought myself to the thought, and realized, that's the whole point! And it's quite far from easy, actually. My name is Julia, a newly aspiring model from Indianapolis. As I've recently took a dive right into the modeling biz, I had no idea how complex modeling actually is! And you know what? It was that very aspect of it that took my reality of modeling by the neck and into a stranglehold, and turned my world of modeling into something so new and exciting. I had realized just what I think every model learned somewhere in the beginning of their journey, just how hard modeling actually was--and oh, how that excites me. Due to my new discovery, I plan to give back to modeling, just as it first gave to me, and return the excitement. Expect my best, which is my all. <3

After reading several stories on here I finally decided to make my own account. I elected to have my 2 boys young and now my body is paying for it. On April 1, 2013 I will undergo a breast lift with silicone implants as the first big step in getting my body back. I have severe sagging that is supposedly hereditary.
I'm 5'3", 118 pounds and I'm currently a 36 C, I'm hoping to go up at least 1 full cup size but I was told because of my skin elasticity that going much larger then that would not be the best idea. I'm currently a full time student so I will only be taking 1 week off. I'm hoping the recovery is not to awful but I've seen my mom do this procedure and I know it won't be a walk in the park. I'm incredibly nervous already but thank goodness I have school to keep my mind occupied until my procedure.

- Forge WINTake
- BSH PCV fix
- Unitronic stage 2
- MIL is on:
- P2187: System too lean at idle
At first I thought this could be spark related. Changed the plugs (OEM NGK copper to NGK Iridium IX) and the issue appeared to be solved. However, I now know that this is happening once the car has been driven about 30-40 minutes. Symptoms are:
- Boost peaks at 5 psi
- Slow acceleration
- Loss in fuel consumption
The first thing I checked was the newly installed Forge WINTake system. I wanted to make sure it was all proper and nothing had expanded or slipped after installation. All clamps are tight and all silicone are properly seated. Also, the mass airflow sensor is properly seated.
The second thing I checked was the mass airflow sensor. I had swapped that with a known good sensor and had the same issue. I was then going to run some VCDS logs to see if the fuel was within spec from the HPFP. Before being able to do this, I did a lot of searching and kept finding the same answer; PCV system.
The one thread I read had the same issue but was running the BSH catch can setup. I am running the BSH PCV fix (block off). There was a small leak with his plate allowing air to enter. He also had a lot of blowby in his lines and plate even with a catch can. This afternoon, I pulled off my block off to inspect the gasket and ports. No blowby at all and no uneven compression of the gasket. Also, the case ventilation hose was replaced in June. I reinstalled everything and had to go to work. No dice.
So I am back to the drawing board. I have some options:
- Pull off rear PCV tube and remove check valve if present
- Log fuel trim via VCDS
My confusion comes with the fact that most of these parts have been installed on the car for a while and only now displaying an issue. The BSH PCV fix was installed in February and the HPFP sensor recall was performed in April.
My anxiety comes with the fact that I only have 3,000 miles of warranty left and if it is a covered part, I would like to have it taken care of.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Translational tables now form a vital pan in three-dimensional surface topography systems. In some systems typically. one translational table is used to provide measurements in one of the axes and the translational motion provided by the gearbox of the system is used to provide the other axis. In other systems, two translational tables are used to provide all the movement for data acquisition from the surface. In these systems, the stylus is held stationary during the measurement. It is clear from the above, that irrespective of the motion mechanism employed, the measurement depends heavily on the accuracy and repeatability of positioning of the translational tables. There are, as yet, no standards specifically prepared for calibrating translational tables and this can lead to problems with traceability. This paper sets out to define and assess procedures for determining the accuracy and repeatability of positioning translational tables in the x? and y?axes by using as an example, two tables that work on different principles: (1) a lead screw stepper motor driven table; and (2) a brushless linear motor driven table. Each of these systems has its particular problems. The system proposed, is bared on the standard technique employed for machine tool calibration and provides a basis for assessing and quantifying table errors that arc likely to significantly affect the logging and characterization of surface data in three-dimensions (3D). In this paper the displacement and velocity characteristics of the tables are examined as well as dynamic stability, lead screw error, backlash, and repeatability of positioning. The paper also assesses the suitability of the two systems for use in static and on-the-fly data collection.

Envision Plans Solar Carports for EVs
We've been hearing a lot about the electric cars of the future--but where will you park them? Envision Solar International is hoping to fill that particular niche with solar-powered carports.
We've been hearing a lot about the electric cars of the future--but where will you park them? Envision Solar International Inc. is hoping to fill that particular niche.
The company's carports ("LifePorts") feature solar panels on their roofs, so you can charge your car with the sustainable energy from home. The garage-like structure will have parking for one or two electric cars, and,depending on the model, could provide all your home and car energy. The carports aren't available yet for at-home use, but the company's website says they'll be available starting in "Mid 2010."
Envision already has large-scale solar canopies over parking lots at Dell Headquarters, the University of California San Diego, and the City of Napa.
Don't have an electric car but want to get in on the solar power trend? The San Diego-based company (which just went public) also plans to introduce the LifeTree, a pivoting, shade-providing structure with a single pole holding up 8 solar panels. According to their website, this can produce about 2,000 kilowatt hours per year. The more traditional four-post LifeShade produces about the same amount.

Even the longest-lasting relationships have their rough patches and it seems Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone have hit some turbulent waters as of late.
According to an inside source, the "Social Network" hunk and the "Easy A" actress are spending some time apart to reevaluate their romance and see if it's wise to continue.
Always one of the most well attended fetes during Hollywood's biggest night, the Vanity Fair Oscar Party continued to live up to its reputation on Sunday (February 22).
Her work in "Birdman (Or the Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance)" earned her a Best Supporting Actress nod, and Emma Stone looked hopeful as she attended the 87th Annual Academy Awards earlier tonight (February 22).
Adorned by a lovely Elie Saab frock, the "Easy A" star was in fine form as she made her way around Hollywood's Dolby Theatre and chatted with a slew of celebrity guests.
Just one night before the Oscars take over town, stars flocked to the 2015 Film Independent Spirit Awards on the Santa Monica Beach on Saturday (February 21).
Gearing up for the much-anticipated Oscars later this month, a bevy of beautiful people gathered at The Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills on Monday (February 2) for the 87th Annual Academy Awards Nominee Luncheon.
It's one of the most beloved awards shows of the season and last night (January 25) a slew of Tinseltown A-listers were in the house for the 21st Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards.
The scene at the Shrine Auditorium was colorful and creative on Sunday night (January 25) as Hollywood's hottest ladies got all gussied up for the 2015 Screen Actors Guild Awards.
There's always something crazy going on in the Big Apple and on Sunday evening (January 18) Emma Stone and Alan Cumming teamed up for a fun-filled night.
The "Amazing Spider-Man" babe and the "Eyes Wide Shut" stud, who have been starring in 'Cabaret' on Broadway together as of late, were in the house for "Queen of the Night" and looked fabulous as they posed for photos together.

As an actress first, most of my portfolios consist of headshots and similar photos. I just added some new shots, and would love some feedback on the stuff I already have, and what I need to gain a more competitive edge! Looking for serious constructive criticism on both my look, and my portfolio in general. Thanks in advance!

You are beautiful and could have a lot of amazing looks but your port is terrible. This is the only good shot in it.
You are an actress and this is the only shot that shows some acting ability. You have to push your actress theme. In the acting field you must know a MUA yet the rest of your poses have little or no makeup.
The clothes you wear are also plain. They look just like everyone else might be wearing on the street, not a model's clothes.
Upgrade your shots and you will succeed.

Chronic homelessness and cost studies
August 15, 2011
This morning, I got a call from a reporter curious about cost studies.
Which got me thinking about chronic homelessness.
It's one of the things I learned quickly at the Alliance: permanent supportive housing ends chronic homelessness. Permanent supportive housing provides housing stability (permanent housing) + supportive services (medical, mental, physical, etc.) to homeless people with the highest needs who are often struggling with mental illness, substance abuse, and/or physical issues.
In the last decade or so, we've implemented permanent supportive housing across the country and measurably reduced chronic homelessness in the United States. Chronic homelessness was the focus of many of the first community Ten Year Plans. The federal strategic plan to end homelessness, Opening Doors, aims to end chronic homelessness in five years.
And the outcomes are reflective of the effort: from 2005 to 2008, chronic homelessness in the countrydecreased approximately 28 percent.
While the cost of incarceration, institutionalization, hospitalization, etc. vary from state to state, many cost studies have found that providing chronically homeless people permanent supportive housing is more cost-effective than incarcerating, institutionalizing, hospitalizing, etc. them.
Below is a smattering of some cost studies:
Seattle, WA (2009)
- A Housing First facility in Seattle, WA served chronically homeless people with severe alcohol problems who had previously incurred multiple and expensive mental health care and medical costs.
- Housing First participants had median costs of $4,066 per person per month. Median monthly costs decreased to $1,492 and $958 after 6 and 12 months in housing, respectively. The total cost rate reduction was 53 percent for housed participants relative to wait-list controls over the first 6 months. The total cost offsets for Housing First participants relative to controls averaged $2,449 per person per month after accounting for housing program costs.
Los Angeles, CA (2009)
- This study examined four people with substance abuse, physical health, mental health, and criminal justice issues.
- The study found that the the total cost of public services spent on [four individuals] over two years on the streets was $187,288.
- The study also found that the total cost of public services for these four individuals living in permanent housing with support services for two years was $107,032.
Portland, ME (2009)
- This project provided an opportunity to review the current permanent supportive housing options in Maine as well as to examine the cost of permanent supportive housing as compared to the cost of a life lived in homelessness.
Urban Maine (greater Portland)
- 50% reduction in Service costs during the second year of permanent supportive housing;
- 46% reduction in Health Care costs representing a $264,046 decrease in health costs;
- Permanent supportive housing placements continued to reduce costs in the following areas: emergency room by 49%, incarceration by 87%, ambulance transportations by 53%, and police contacts by 51%.
- Rural Maine
- 37% reduction in service costs by providing continued permanent supportive housing to people with disabilities experiencing homelessness in rural areas;
- 54% reduction in Mental Health costs representing a $389,977 decrease in mental health costs;
- Permanent supportive housing placements continued to reduce costs in the following areas: emergency room by 15%, incarceration by 91% and ambulance transportations by 16%.
Permanent supportive housing is ending chronic homelessness. By providing the most high-need homeless people with housing stability coupled with the supportive services they need, we can not only end homelessness for those individuals but relieve some of the financial burden on the municipalities serving them.
We can end chronic homelessness by committing to this effective strategy. To find out more and how to get involved, please visit the Alliance website and sign up to advocate.

Rational Nation USA
Liberty -VS- Tyranny
President Obama is taking a lot of heat from the presumably "conservative" element in America. While I wish I understood completely why this is so, primarily because I find myself in disagreement with at least 50% of his positions if not more, I find myself in realization that America in majority voted for exactly what the President espouses. So, in my rather individualized mind, as uncomfortable as it is, I must acknowledge that America has spoken. In their affirmation of the President's views and policies it is reasonable to expect he would continue to pursue the policies and agenda that the citizens of the United States voted in majority to embrace.
As I see it the lion's share of the problem can be found in the "conservatives" unwillingness to recognize that the realities confronting our nation today are vastly different than those confronting the Patriots of 1776. Now I realize that the hard core socon, neocon, and just plain cons of the rEpublican party will likely skewer me for the saying. But as they say it is what it is and somebody on the right (preferably many) need to pull their heads from out of their arses, stand up and make it clear they understand we live in a pluralist society. There is no changing that and to a great degree the very people on the right who are bemoaning this reality are in fact responsible for it.
Logic and rational thought does not rest solely with conservatives or libertarians, it also resides in many reasonable and rational individuals that are to the left of us. Maybe it is just me, but it seems irrational to not consider the rational and logically based thoughts of those who may disagree with us. If I've learned one thing of importance from business management it is to consider listen and honestly consider the view points of those you might disagree with. or if you fail to do so it is quite possible, and likely, you may just miss an opportunity that will benefit your company and it's employees.
Government cannot be run precisely as a private business because government in America, to govern effectively requires the public's trust. However, it is justifiable and proper to understand and believe the principles adhered to in a ethical and successful bushiness, when applied properly to governance will lead to a more prosperous and productive nation.
The following article, with all its patriotic verbiage is precisely what is ailing this nation. Please everyone don't get me wrong here, the left has as many publications (and blogs) that are just as full of fluff and BS as the right does. What needs to be acknowledged by both sides is that this is true, it is damaging to the national conscience, and allowed to proceed unchecked will result in splitting the nation apart along partisan political and ideologically driven likes. Forgive me if you will but we owe our founding fathers by far more more, even if wee seem unwilling to understand how they ultimately created this nation.
Enough of me, here is the article that prompted this post.
Townhall - The grotesque spectacle of the State of the Union address, with its lengthy receiving line of adoring sycophants, demonstrates why the President is operating under the delusion that he is more than just our President. Like him, many people seem to fundamentally misunderstand his role. He's not our "leader," or our "ruler," or our national "daddy," no matter what his adoring fan, comic Chris Rock, thinks.
Let's clarify things for those folks with the unseemly desire to offer up their personal sovereignty to some government hack. Unlike Hollywood geniuses better known for exposing their breasts than exposing their brains, I'll never pledge to be a servant of any politician.
I'm an American citizen. As such, no mortal man may presume to lead or rule me.
And I already have a father, one who incidentally has a better track record of job creation than Barack Obama by the mere fact that he hasn't destroyed several million of them. Nor has he left any ambassadors to die, or surrounded himself with kids in a sick circus of political exploitation designed to steal the fundamental rights of law-abiding citizens.
Hell, now I'm thinking "Dad 2016." I mean, if that's cool with Karl Rove.
As for Barack Obama, and I say this with no disrespect, but he's just an employee. There's this thing military people know as the "chain of command." When it comes to American citizens, we're at the top of the chain. Done. That's the entire chain of command for an American citizen, and the President's not in it. Should he presume to suggest a course of action, with a few rare and well-defined exceptions, it is just that – a suggestion.
Now, the President is the Commander-In-Chief of the Armed Forces, but command in a military context is quite different. Command is a circumscribed function, strictly limited to military personnel engaged in their military duties and focusing not on the prerogatives of power but on the dual responsibilities of accomplishing the mission and taking care of those warriors he leads.
A commander is by no means some sort of rock star, at least if his self-regard is properly kept in check (There is a reason every commander at every level in the military has a grizzled noncommissioned officer assigned to him or her, and it isn't for ego-boosting).
No, the President works for me, and for you. Too often, Americans seem to forget that. Sure, he has a big job. He's an executive, with lots of people (civilian and military) working under him. He deserves the same respect as any decent superior should show a subordinate – and make no mistake, the President is a subordinate of even the most humble American citizen. {Read More}
I am not sure what I may be missing here but; in as much as the President works for you and me at some point he must make recommendations to the legislative branch, including sending bills for their consideration, as well as making executive decisions that are in the interests of the people who elected him. In this I know of no better way to govern than by erring in favor of the majority vote. President Obama was duly reelected President as well as the nation electing a dEmocrat Senate. At the same time the nation elected a rEpublican house. It seems to me our system of checks and balances is functioning as intended. Perhaps it would do the nation and all it's citizens a good turn if the ideologues on both sides of the aisle begin listening to that which they have heretofore choose to tune out.

Window pane replacement help
Hi and thanks for reading,
My house has enerpro double pane windows. They were put in either in late 2003 or early 2004 when the house was built. I bought the house in the fall of 2007. When I moved in one of the windows had a cloudiness in the window. I contacted the builder who said it was still under warrenty and gave me enerpro's contact information. Hal's millwork out of Minneapolis. They came out to replace the window once but brought the wrong sized window. Measure twice cut once comes to mind. I guess they only measured once. For the next 9 months they have not returned my phone calls about getting this window replaced. I'm very frustrated and will most likely need to install it myself. Now to my questions:
Are there any good guides out there for removing and installing double pain windows or can someone explain to me the procedure? The vinyl frames still look new so all I need to replace is the pane. Do I need any special tools? At this point I would prefer not to deal with enerpro at all, so can I go with any type/manufacturer of window pane? I suppose it has to be double pane and not triple.
keep calling tell them your to sue :thumbsup:
you could just pull the sash out and bring it to a local glass company
I would try to contact enerpro as well. If Hal's Millwork is having problems or even out of business, Enerpro may have another contractor nearby that can help you. If not, and the window tilts is, it is really easy to remove and you can take it to a glass company. Tilt the wildow down to 90 degrees, then lift up on either side to release it from the balance. Then you can place a piece of foam board, plywood, or cardboard into the opening during repair. If not, then it is a bit harder to remove the fixed pane of glass, and would really be best to be done by a glass company as you have to remove the glazing bead (preferrably without destrying it so that it can be reused) , then the IGU (the glass pack) wich is best done with a deglazing tool to avoid breaking the glass.
Since they are still under warranty, I would go with the Enerpro route first if possible.
EDIT: Just searched and found out that Hal's IS the manufacturer for Enerpro windows, so if they are not returning phone calls, I guess that is not an option.
Not sure why they got it wrong the first time. Most manufacturers put stickers on each sash with all the details for that sash, when made, dimensions, type glass, grids, etc. Some cheapy manufacturers don't do that, not sure what yours are. If you can't get satisfaction from the installer, go directly to the manufacturer. Glass is usually guaranteed for at least 10 yrs for the problem you have, failed seal. Most are 20 yrs to life. Which is what some manufacturers should get for their cheap products.
I should mention that these are crank out casement windows. I believe that Wrangler is correct. My googling also led me to believe that Hal's is both the manufacturer and installer. What they brought last time was just the glass pack (which I was calling the window pane). So it would be a matter of replacing the glass back in a vinyl window. It sounds like a would need a special tool and that it might take a skilled hand to avoid destroying the gasket. The builder gave me the warranty certificate and they have a 10 year warranty, assuming Hal's stays in business, which given the current economic environment is a big question mark. My opinion of these windows is not very high.
there's an old saying ''The squeaky wheel gets the grease''You paid for a warranty you shouldnt give up so easy.Call,Email Write make a real pest of yourself find out who owns these companies contact them direct if you can.But if your not going to do that just call a local glass company thats been around a long time and have them fix it for you :thumbsup:
if i install a widow and its defective my window manufacture sends me a whole new sash
if you are going to replace it yourself check out this guide and the accompanying podcast..
Good luck and let us know how you make out.
Try discussing it with the builder. The builder should be doing the legwork on this.
If no resolution definitely follow up with BBB. Do any of your local news stations have a consumer guy that does stories about local consumer issues with businesses? Having a news crew show up usually provides incentive for a business to fix things to make the cameras go away.
Out of Business
It had been about 4-5 months since I had last tried calling the maker of Enerpro Windows, Hals Millwork, and this time the phone was disconnected. I called a local distributor and he confirmed that they had gone out of business. So now I'll have to have a new low-e glass pack made by a local glass company.
Work is complete and window is as good as new
I contacted and hired out a local glass company to replace the window. Turns out they have been doing many of the enerpro window replacements in my area. They were very reasonable and charged $140 for a 2x5 casement window pane including install,tax, everything. The window has a 20year warranty. No more fogginess, I'm as happy as a clam :)
I'd send a bill to Hal's.

Giving Begins at Work
Many of us are happy to give — a little. As long as we're not the ones who have to organize it, pull it together, deliver it… whatever.
Most of us are happy to give generously – by our definition. Small sacrifices. Winston Churchill's quote encourages us to recognize that we give because it feels good and gives our lives meaning. The tricky part is to give in a way that is meaningful to ourselves and to the recipients.
I am an advocate for giving of our talents, whatever they are. If you are an artist… give lessons. If you are a programmer, program something! I am a business coach so I donate time to SCORE.
So today I am campaigning for two things. To ask you to:
1) Find a way to give through your job. I found this interesting website Global Giving which allows people to donate their talent — online– to help organizations. Check it out. You might be surprised.
2) Help your company identify an organization that your team can serve. Many people already probably give to causes through their affiliation with church or other 'social' venues. I am suggesting that your team pick a group to help as a group. And let me give you this hint… if it helps children and/or what effects their health… you will have more cooperation.
The more I read about inter-generational communication issues in the workplace the more convinced I am that purpose, outside of profits, benefits this cause directly. (Believe me I'm all for profits too!)
I recently presented at the New York State Lions Club and came across their Lions See project seeking to reduce childhood blindness in the US. It probably wouldn't take much effort to a great program and your company will benefit as much if not more than the recipients. Let me know if you need any help finding a cause.

Philanthropy makes this world work. I volunteer my time with a local club and a local museum where I am a major donor. As a person who has spent his entire working life working for non-profit organizations financial gifts are a necessity. I do not believe it is an either/or decision. I am a pastor of an older congregation that is known for their volunteerism to other non-profits but our people also give generously and sacrificially. I have learned much from senior adults. My experience as a professional fund raiser has thought me that once you have a volunteer of services you have a better chance of having a financial supporter. Thanks for writing another stimulating entry and the opportunity for me to add my two cents.

Heading south to CC is part of my plan during layoff Jon. The logistics are proving to be problematic, and I am not looking forward to an 18 hour drive.
Eyeballed your for sale items. May still pick up on one or two. Need to see what I am getting feels like.
I the wife goes, we drive. If not, I'll fly, but will have to have ammo bought and shipped to you (cost is the same drive double or fly single - rather fly).
What's the barrel break in procedure? Shoot a few, clean, rinse and repeat or load up and perforate a target?

According to PSM (PlayStation Magazine) France, new details have emerged on the SIXAXIS v.2 Rumble controller.
Now that the law suits are over, Sony can stop telling people that force feedback is 'out', and start making a SIXAXIS controller that shakes like a wet dog. Details included talk of a new feature called "Touchsense" which allows for rumble not only through the controllers handles, but the thumb-sticks as well.
If details are to be believed, the rumble will have the ability to give feedback from pin-point locations on the controller and the rumble will be much stronger then previous Dual Shock offerings. Hopefully this won't be too demanding on battery power.
After the farce that Sony went through when they first revealed the SixAxis and detailed its lack of rumble, this should be a pleasant surprise to gamers everywhere.
Stay tuned.

Love Worth Waiting For–Dating After Age 60
A single person over age 60 may bristle at the thought of dating. Perhaps the reluctance to take another chance on love is based on the death of a beloved spouse or a bitter divorce. Maybe you are single by choice and never really got the knack of dating, and now feel you are too set in your ways to find romance.
The truth is that many over 60 singles are having some of the best times of their lives meeting others and feeling the butterflies of attraction that they thought they would never experience again. It's not too late to get in the game and start having fun dating over 60, with the help of some simple tips.
Know that you are not alone, many people continue dating over 60 and beyond. There are many fish still in the sea, they are just a bit more sophisticated. Retirement and a decreased social circle may limit the people you physically encounter day to day; however, many senior daters are finding over 60 dating sites to be the answer.
Before creating a dating profile, be sure to check that the dating service website is for you. More than ever, connection websites are responding to demographic demand and specializing in over 60 dating. Once you know you are in the right ballpark age-wise, do a bit of checking to be sure this is the type of "dating" you imagine. Yes, there are senior dating sites that specialize in strictly sexual hookups or dirty chats. If that is not your thing (you may want a sexy date, not a sex date), screen them out by doing a search for key phrases like "over 60 dating sites", and choose the one that seems friendly, has reasonable terms,and protects your overall privacy.
Please resist the temptation to let a friend or relative create your profile. They may decide to place a picture of you from 1968 on the website. Yes, you were hot then, but you still are hot now! Choose a photo that captures who you are in present tense, or have someone take a recent, flattering shot. Don't be afraid to let your personality shine in your profile, and always be truthful. A well meaning friend may try to make you more "marketable" by exaggerating to the point of deception, which will be awkward for you and your prospective match.
What do you do when you get approached for a date? Take a look at the person's profile carefully to see if this is someone whom you would like as a friend. Don't just look at the photo, as many wonderful people do not resemble Harrison Ford or Michelle Pfeiffer. Do find out all you can about the person and google their name online. You might even want to run a background check on the person, to be sure you are not meeting up with one of America's Most Wanted. Understand that your date may do the same for you, because they too are taking a chance meeting a stranger.
Arrange to meet at a well-lit public place for a casual encounter. Do not have the person pick you up at home, and don't invite them in for a "coffee" afterwards until you know them better. If he or she is the right one for you there will be time later for intimate candlelight dinners and hidden rendezvous.
You (and your date) will most likely be a little nervous at first, and approaching your date with a sense of humor helps break the ice. Remember that dating over 60 has many advantages. Your mature life experience helps you to not take every little thing so seriously,and you can laugh at little mishaps like a spilled wine glass or clueless waiter. Another plus of mature dating is that over 60 singles tend to be more compassionate about life, loss, and health issues that come up during conversation. Be careful though not to spend the entire evening talking about your dearly departed spouse, ungrateful adult children, or your arthritic knees. If you need to have a special food order due to diabetes or high blood pressure, simply place your order confidently with minimal explanation. Again, if he or she is the right one, there will be other more intimate moments for long talks about former partners and health concerns.
Feeling that rush of attraction takes many over 60 singles by surprise. You may feel like a teenager again as your fingers brush as you walk together, or he helps you on with your coat. Just because you are dating over 60 doesn't mean you can't get your flirt on like you used to. You may just find that special love that was worth waiting for.

Sai Baba of Shirdi is one of the most well known spiritual Masters of India. He belongs to that brotherhood of saints who crossed the barriers of caste and creed and spoke the universal language of love. He taught the most profound philosophy and the greatest truths in a simple and forthright way. This book is a collection of stories, portrayed through the eyes of Laxmi, one of his closest devotees. While material facts have been kept intact, an element of fiction has been introduced to weave events from his life into a narrative. This book hopes to encourage the reader to reflect on Baba's teachings and inspire a desire to understand the timeless wisdom passed on through our yesterdays.
Girish Joshi, M.A. in Marathi and Sanskrit, is a professor at the Acharya Marathe College and a part-time professor at SIES. He has translated into Hindi and Marathi several books such as Amma by Mehrunnisa Pervez, Saripat by Vasudha Wagh, and Sai Baba by Sonavi Desai. He has written numerous articles in periodicals such as Kadamb, Hemangi, Vasa, and Sai Leela to name a few. He has also presented a research paper on "Moropantanchi 108 Ramayane" at an international conference in Mumbai.
