In Time
How much time does one have? This is a question that interests many of us. If someone dies young we say, "They went before their time." If someone lives to be 100 we may say, "It was their time to go." Many of us exercise, eat healthier, take herbal supplements, etc., just so we will have more time. The movie In Time takes this desire to its extreme and imagines an environment where people buy and sell time.
The premise of this movie may be the best thing about it, an intriguing story that hooks you from the beginning. In the future people are genetically modified to only age to 25 years. Anything after the 25-year mark is time that is borrowed, inherited, stolen or earned. Time also acts as the currency. If you want a cup of coffee or want to ride the bus, it will cost you time. The country has been divided into highly guarded sections called time zones. People clock out (die) every day in the slums. It is a way of life, and neither the people nor the time keepers (police) seem to care. In the wealthy time zone people have accumulated hundreds and even thousands of years. They move slower and take in all of life, because they have plenty of time.
The movie follows Will Salas (Justin Timberlake) who lives in the slums with his mom, played by Olivia Wilde. Since no one ages past 25, it is difficult to tell if someone is a mother, wife or daughter. Will is given a large amount of time by a 100-year-old man who no longer wants to live. At first this seems like a wonderful gift, but Will is quickly burdened by the gift and finds himself on the run from the law. Along the way he meets Sylvia Weis (Amanda Seyfried), the daughter of a wealthy businessman, played by Vincent Kartheiser. For the last half of the movie, Will and Sylvia are trying to stay one step ahead of the time keepers.
The cast of the film includes some of the finest young actors and actresses in Hollywood. Timberlake's part is not as strong as his performance in last year's The Social Network, but he proves he can handle a leading role in a big-budget film. Seyfried and Wilde also shine. But the two people who outperform everyone else are not even the biggest names: Kartheiser and Cillian Murphy are superb as the villains and do an incredible job of playing characters who are much older than their appearance.
In Time was written and directed by Andrew Niccol, who also wrote and directed Gattaca, one of the best science-fiction movies of the last 25 years. Sci-fi is an interesting genre because it allows one to uniquely explore philosophical, theological and ethical ideas. Whether you are dealing with dualism (good vs. evil), the question of "what is reality" or the ethics of eugenics, the science-fiction genre offers a writer and director a large canvas to work with. One of the problems with In Time is that it is more influenced by present political events (like the financial meltdown currently driving Occupy Wall Street, etc.) than these deeper philosophical and ethical issues.
In Time has a superb cast and a good premise, but somewhere along the way it comes up short. The villains keep the movie interesting, but the main characters become drab and the storyline predictable after the first half. As a fan of both Niccol and Timberlake, I really wanted to enjoy this movie, but there was something lacking. If you are looking for a somewhat entertaining movie with a moral message (SPOILER: Darwinian Capitalism is bad), then you may enjoy In Time. However, if you want to watch a science-fiction movie that stands the tests of time, stay home and check out Gattaca.

Timothy, I really wanted to like this film, as I said in my review. I loved Gattaca and I think Justin Timberlake is an actor with a lot of potential. I simply lost interest in the second half of the film. I will say that both Cillian Murphy's and Vincent Kartheiser's performances in this film were great. If you are a fan of either of these actors you will not be disappointed by their performances.

Header Install
This post is for informational use. If you plan to install a header here are some things I have ran across and may help when getting all the parts together before your install. I have the OBX Maximizer (1 7/8" runners and 2.5" collector) header installed on my 2012 sedan. Originally I had the upstream air fuel ratio sensor installed about 3" away from the head on only #4 cylinder and the downstream was in the collector. After about 100 miles the CEL came on with P0420 cat code and the engine is running VERY rich. After doing research and talking to my techs that work for me the upstream needs to read all 4 cylinders. I started looking for o2 extenders and could not find one for our cars. I found out that our upstream sensors are a 5 wire wide band air fuel ratio sensor and the wires CANNOT be extended doe to too much resistance. After looking around and being on the phone with my vendors I have found that there is a sensor that will work. It is used on the 2007 Porsche Boxter with the 2.7l. Bosch part #17276, Denso part #234-5108, Walker part #250-25015. These sensors are 850mm (about 33.4") and will reach down to the collector with ease. Now for the downstream sensor. It CAN be extended because it is only used to read the cat efficiency. You will need to use a spacer that comes out in a 90 degree for space and to trick the computer. the rear o2 sensor needs to be at least 2.5" or more behind the upstream sensor. I hope this helps.
It is what it is in life... Just have fun with it!

Mexican gray wolf shot, killed in New Mexico
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — The effort to return the endangered Mexican gray wolf to the American Southwest has hit another stumbling block.
Federal and state wildlife officials confirmed Friday that a female wolf that was released into the wild in early May was found dead just one month later in southwestern New Mexico.
The animal, dubbed F1108, had been shot. Authorities released no other details and said the investigation was ongoing.
Top officials with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service have long pointed to illegal shootings as one of the challenges to reintroducing Mexican gray wolves in New Mexico and Arizona. Since reintroduction efforts began in 1998, [auth] there have been 50 illegal killings documented, with four occurring just last year.
Environmental groups called the latest wolf death a tragedy.
"The Mexican gray wolf population cannot afford the loss of another individual, let alone a breeding female with pups," said Nancy Gloman, vice president of field conservation for Defenders of Wildlife. "This wolf and her pups were another critical step toward the promise of recovery."
A survey at the beginning of the year indicated there were at least 75 wolves in the wild in the two states, marking the largest population since the reintroduction program began. Environmentalists have been pushing the federal government to release more captive animals to boost those numbers.
The Fish and Wildlife Service has cited genetic concerns for moving cautiously with any releases, while ranchers and some rural community leaders have voiced concerns about their safety and livelihoods being compromised by more wolves on the landscape.
Ranchers have blamed the predators for numerous cattle deaths over the years. In June, officials investigated the deaths of three calves in Arizona. Two of the deaths were found to have been caused by wolves.
The wolf found shot in late June was one of four captive animals that the Fish and Wildlife Service had hand-picked for release this spring with the hope of bolstering the wild population. The wolves were to be released in pairs — one in the Gila Wilderness and the other in southeastern Arizona.
After weeks of waiting, the agency pulled the plug on the Arizona release and returned that pair to captivity. The pair in New Mexico fared no better with the male being captured for roaming outside of the recovery area just days after his release.
Soon afterward the pair's pups were presumed dead, and the female started roaming. She was last located in the northeastern corner of the Gila forest near Kline Mountain.

I find that in our lives in general we tend to create smaller circles so any opportunity to break out of that circle is welcome. The Chamber facilitates such an opening of the circle. I experience my peers/competitors, but I find it's valuable to interact with people outside of your field because you realized the similarities of all business. You can learn from the trials others have had to go through, you can learn from the lessons they've learned in management. The Annual Dinner and the Mixers are especially good for these conversations.

Leaving Bathroom Water Off
I'm replacing the flooring in my master bath and have had to remove the toilet and vanity/sink to do so. I shut the valves off to the water supply underneath the sink and toilet (sort of oval shaped knobs). I will need to leave them off indefinately to do some other work in there but obviously need water for the rest of the house.
Is it ok to leave them off? Also, is it ok to just have these valves shut off or do i need to go downstairs and shut something else off? New homeowner here...
You should be fine shutting these off as long as nothing disturbs them. If it makes you more comfortable, go to Home Depot and get some anti-flood supply lines and put those on the valve outlet. Also put some small bowls under them to easily monitor if they are leaking or not.
What hammer said plus I'll add.
When doing extensive remodeling sometimes those valves get in the way. I actually like to remove the valves as well if they might hinder a future step in my project. Usually they are soldered to 1/2" copper. I unsolder them (Turn water off in basement at main) and replace them with just a simple cap that gets soldered in place.

The long civil war in Sri Lanka is over, the rebels have been crushed, but the heritage of so much bloodshed and hatred lingers in the minds of the triumphant government as well as those who either supported the rebel Liberation Tigers of Tamil Elam(LTTE) or were in the wrong place at the wrong time. Over 300,000 innocent Sri Lankans are still in refugee camps while the government offers excuses why they must be kept in camp. Sugarthini Manikan's husband came from an LTTE stronghold so authorities do not wish to allow his return home.
Outside investigators have found horrific conditions in refugee camps. As one described the situation, "people are scared to tell anyone of the problems we are facing. But it is a prison here. There are no enough health facilities for the problems.
If the Sri Lanka government was wise it might adopt the post war plans of Abraham Lincoln in which 500,000 died. Those who lost were allowed to return home and no one was killed.

After going through five periods of individual drills, the number one offense went against the number one defense and the second units squared off against each other.
In last Monday's first scrimmage, the defense held the upper hand for the first part of the scrimmage, but this time the offense looked better from the beginning.
Sophomore quarterback Brian Brohm showed he's stepping into form by going 21-of-33 for 247 yards and a touchdown. After starting off 6-for-13, Brohm finished 15-for-20 with a 45-yard touchdown pass to Montrel Jones.
The game showed promise at times with Michael Bush, Kolby Smith and George Stripling. Bush carried 17 times for 62 yards, including a two-yard run on the opening series. Smith logged 12 carries for 70 yards and a game-high three touchdowns, scoring on runs of 4, 39 and 1. Stripling, a talented red-shirt freshman, had a game-high 21 carries for 87, including a 25-yard scoring burst.
The receiving corps was led by Montrel Jones, who caught six passes for 128 yards and Jimmy Riley's five receptions for 105 yards. Mario Urrutia had another solid scrimmage with five receptions for 87 yards and Broderick Clark added five for 61.
The Cardinals will take Sunday and Monday off before returning to the field practice on Tuesday, April 12.

As the popularity of the film musical continued to wind down, the studios picked up on an added trend: Not only was the public ostracizing musicals, but critics as well - professionals who, one would assume, have adventurous, open-minded tastes and should know better.
But as they say, never assume.
It became apparent that whenever a new movie musical opened, it would be compared - unfairly - to "Singin' in the Rain," a film which, for some bizarre, irrational reason, became the template to which all subsequent movie musicals would be compared. Yeesh!
So how do the few remaining denizens in Hollywood who actually like musicals combat critics who, sight unseen, declare every new movie musical "an unmitigated, unwatchable disaster!"?
Well, you bring in the Top Guns. Which is exactly what the studios did. You hire respected filmmakers, honchos, who critics would never question.
Serious filmmakers.
And so it begun, in the late 1970s and early '80s...
- John Huston signed on to direct a really terrific film version of "Annie."
- Sidney Lumet did his part on behalf of "The Wiz."
- Milos Foreman - Milos Foreman! - brought his considerable skills to what is arguably the definitive version of "Hair."
- Sir Richard Attenborough - the operative word here being "Sir" - was given the delicate task of bringing that Broadway darling, "A Chorus Line," to the big screen.
- Francis Ford Coppola, who in his youth did "Finian's Rainbow," pursued the provocative "One from the Heart."
- Martin Scorsese, a veritable savior among critics, dared to try his hand at an original movie musical, "New York, New York."
- Peter Bogdanovich developed his "new Cole Porter Musical," "At Long Last Love."
- Hal Prince, who delighted critics with his off-beat debut movie, "Something for Everyone," decided to follow it up with a little Sondheim piece that he directed on stage - "A Little Night Music."
The ploy didn't work. In fact, it backfired. If critics weren't going to accept a musical directed by the venerable John Huston (abetted by the very qualified Joe Layton), exactly what would they accept?

The easiest way to save money in the history of the world.
"We had a hard time getting decent service or loans from the banks," remembered Ken Johnson. Ken, along with fellow educators Zollie Sutherland, Gordon Hansen, William Hillard, Walt Reeves, Richard Hunt and Bob Bache - each ponied up $10 to satisfy the incorporation fee at the time to form a credit union. Sonoma County Schools Credit Union was granted operating status on Jan. 18, 1961.
The most involved job of the all-volunteer credit union was Treasurer. To offer some compensation for the extra hours, the original by-laws deemed the Treasurer would draw "from 25% of whatever excess funds remained after satisfying all expenses." In the first month 90¢ of excess revenue remained. Gordon Hansen, our inaugural Treasurer, netted a whopping windfall of 22¢ for his myriad hours of work.
By the second month the post of Treasurer transferred to Zollie Sutherland and his wife. For the next five years the credit union was run from the Sutherland's kitchen table. "We didn't have any regular hours of operation, but if we hadn't yet gone to bed then we were open for business," said Sutherland.
When assets of the credit union approached $500,000, it was too much to run from a kitchen table, and the first employee - Maggie Wattles - was hired in 1966. Maggie served as this credit union's top manager from 1970 to 1986. Her daughter, Lynne Gradek, worked 40 years for us, retiring in late 2015.
In 1999 the credit union was re-chartered from a SEG (select employee group, in this case Sonoma County educators) to a Community Charter (any resident, student or someone doing business in Sonoma County). In September 2007, the California Department of Financial Institutions, showing its confidence in our ability to manage growth while keeping the quality of Member services at extremely high levels, granted an expansion of the Community Charter to include residents of Mendocino County. In July 2011, the DFI granted an expansion of our charter to include Marin County. In December 2012, Community First took over the assets and membership of Health Care Professionals of Napa Federal Credit Union (formerly Queen of the Valley Hospital CU).
Community First is the second-largest financial cooperative based in the North Bay. As of Oct. 1, 2016, we had 19,000 local co-op Members and assets of $202 million.

When putting it together my buddy put the water pump pulley on backwards and bottom line we broke the camshaft. Got a brand new cam - the intake of course - replaced and retimed. The timing is right on checked several times but the engine wont start. Compression test on the back head shows all the conmpression ratings at approx. 150#'s. The front bank is very inconsistent. Sometimes it shows 150 on each of them and then 20#'s the next time I check. Could it be that when I took off the cam and replaced, that the lifters filled and are not allowing the valves to close? The comporession inconsistency is only on the front bank. Any ideas how to isolate the problem or if it is the lifters, a there a reasonable way to fix that possibility? any help really appreciated.

I didn't follow the rules this month [24 pictures instead of 12; no time stamp; no description], but there really are no rules since Chad Darnell's 12 of 12 is no more. I had an absolutely fantastic day and hope you enjoyed walking along with me through these pictures. See you next month.

It's not quite spring yet, but Oklahoma doesn't seem to know that. After a chilly, wet and windy day yesterday, I awoke this morning to gorgeous blue skies and balmy weather. I grabbed the dogs and my camera and set out on a walk around the neighborhood to see what I would see. Keep in mind that I said I had the dogs with me when you see photos not quite in focus. They don't seem to understand the concept of holding still while I try to focus. Here's what we saw:
11:18 a.m.
11:20 a.m.
11:21 a.m.
11:26 a.m.
11:28 a.m.
11:29 a.m.

11:31 a.m.
11:38 a.m.
11:43 a.m.
11:48 a.m.
11:49 a.m.
I gave up trying to shoot with the dogs in tow after about half an hour.......they're obviously not photo fans. See you next month.

Sunday, February 12
It has been a cold, gray day; fitting for what was in store. The Tulsa Photogs Meetup group had a gathering today at the Philbrook Museum in Tulsa to view Black on Black and White: The Southwest of Laura Gilpin and Maria Martinez and shoot in and around the museum in black and white. It was a fun outing with fun people. I hope you like what I saw in black and white.
New growth on a rose bush in the middle
of Oklahoma's so far non-existent winter.
I'll leave this one up to your imagination.
Statue by Rodin in the rotunda of the
museum along with a visitor getting just the right
angle for his shot.
It looks cold, doesn't it?
At first glance, this sculpture looks very tender.
When you realize the woman is kissing
a faceless oval, it seems sort of creepy.
Fireplace detail.
My shooting buddy Mary watching
two tiny videos set to music.
Shadows of an exhibit.
More fireplace detail.
A Senufo Helmet Mask in the African Art room.
A section of the rotunda ceiling.
My last shot of the day.
Seeing in black and white today made me take some shots I normally wouldn't have taken. Fun stuff.

Some friends and I took a road trip to Bentonville, Arkansas, today to have lunch and visit the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art. All I can say is WOW! What an incredible place to visit. We're already planning a trip back in the spring when the dogwoods are in bloom so we'll be able to enjoy the numerous trails on the museum grounds. This is a must-see place, folks. You definitely need to put a visit to this museum on your bucket list. Here's just a smidgen of what we saw:
We saw this guy. 2:25 p.m.
Here's an up close shot. Wasn't he patient to allow me to get so close? 2:27 p.m.
Creepy! This is entitled "Old Self, Portrait of the Artist as He Will (Not) Be. Variation #2 2010" by Evan Penny, made of silicone, pigment, hair, fabric and aluminum. 2:35 p.m.
A small section of "Hall of the Mountain King" by Marsden Hartley. To really view this painting, you have to stand way back. I can't figure out how he was able to paint it and make sense of his strokes unless he has very, very long arms. 3:32 p.m.
Probably my favorite sculpture of those we saw today. Her gracefulness really captured me. 3:33 p.m.
I love this little guy's smirkey smile. It's an oil on canvas by William Holbrook Beard and is entitled "School Rules." The chimp is holding a copy of Darwin's Descent of Man. 3:43 p.m.
A welcome resting place, that gives a glimpse of the architecture. 4:20 p.m.
"Standing Explosion (Red)" by Roy Lichtenstein, with Andy Warhol's "Dolly Parton" in the background. 4:24 p.m.
This is entitled "Big Red Lens" by Frederick Eversley. It sits in a hallway with a bench directly opposite it and just invites you to sit and look through it. 4:26 p.m.
After visiting most of the galleries, we stopped into Eleven for an afternoon snack and drink. This cupcake was heavenly; rich chocolate with a coffee buttercream frosting. Yum. The Raspberry Fizzy was pretty good, too. 4:47 p.m.
The sun started down and brought beautiful skies. I liked the reflections of the beams against the pink sky. 5:24 p.m.
In the restaurant. 5:25 p.m.
Bonus shot of some really neat light fixtures in the museum gift shop. 5:48 p.m.
I wanted to pull a Ticklebear and post about 50 pictures this month, but I resisted. There are so many wonderful things to see at Crystal Bridges. Don't take my word, though; go see for yourself!

Monday, December 12
This ends my fourth year of taking pictures for Chad Darnell's 12 of 12 Project. I woke up kind of sad this morning, thinking this would be my last 12 of 12. To be honest, I was also a little bit relieved, as some months it can be difficult to find something interesting to shoot. This is one of those months. It's cloudy, rainy and chilly, and I'm not too enthused about getting out. So, this is an around the house month.
Probably the last rose for a while. It freeze dried on the
bush. I'm curious as to how long it will stay there. 10:00 a.m.
Tell me, who would build a skinny cabinet and
then put a shelf in it, totally messing up its intended use?
It had to be a man. It took a woman (me), a tree saw,
a drill, a hammer and some other tools to get it out. 10:46 a.m.
Success. 11:11 a.m.
Finally able to make good use of the cabinet. 11:21 a.m.
You've seen pictures of Lily and Sassy over the years,
but these are my other dogs. 11:42 a.m.
Fun with milk, food coloring and cooking oil. 11:50 a.m.
More fun, this time with motion blur. 11:50 a.m.
Do you see how dreary it is? 1:09 p.m.
The very best apples I've ever tasted. Honeycrisp. Yum. 1:12 p.m.
This handsome fellow is perched high
up on the top of my kitchen cabinets. 1:15 p.m.
I have babied this Gardenia bush for years;
setting it out in the spring and bringing
it in during the winter. For the past few years, it
has been very stingy with flowers, so I pruned it
way back and gave it plenty of fertilizer. There
are now dozens of buds on it. I hope they'll
stay there long enough to bloom. 2:01 p.m.
I totally cheated here. The picture was taken a few years
ago in Garmisch. If you don't do Christmas, I wish your
celebrations during this time to be as meaningful to you as
Christmas is to me.
celebrations during this time to be as meaningful to you as
Christmas is to me.
And that, my friends, is the end of another year in my life. I just found out the 12 of 12 project will be continuing, albeit on another website. So, thanks for the memories, Chad, and thanks to the new benefactor. I hope to see you all again next year.

He thought it would take 15 minutes or so, but when Pete Richards went to pick up his tickets for two events at the London Olympic Games, he had to join a long lineup.
He left four hours later, with his tickets and a sunburn. "It was a disaster," said Mr. Richards, a 32-year-old engineer who recently moved to London from Toronto. "I thought I was going to be in and out in 15, 20 minutes."
Mr. Richards was among hundreds of customers lining up Monday at the City of Westminster College's Paddington campus, where CoSport began handing out Olympic tickets to customers who didn't pay extra to have them shipped.
The company is the official overseas ticketing partner for countries including Canada, Australia and the U.S. It was flooded with complaints Monday, as hundreds lined up and others received groups of tickets that weren't seated together.
Mr. Richards was getting two pairs of tickets, for himself and his girlfriend, who will be travelling from Toronto to see the canoe sprint event and volleyball at the Games. He said the first ticket complication was when the information sent to him from CoSport said he should show up after 9 a.m., an hour later than what the company's website advised.
He said he feels lucky that he managed to get seats together. "A family of four had three [tickets] side by side and one across the stadium," Mr. Richards said.
No comment was immediately available from CoSport's Canadian office, which directs callers to a U.K. phone number, where the voicemail is full.
A London 2012 spokeswoman told The Guardian newspaper that purchasers should contact CoSport, who would have to deal with the issues. "The issues are around how they have distributed and allocated the tickets. Something has gone wrong with how they are allocated and distributed," she said.
The Guardian also reported that CoSport was the subject of complaints in the U.S. last week after it told hundreds of purchasers that they would have to pick up tickets from a box office in London. About 500 of the 4,000 tickets it had sold were not sent in the mail.
Mike Segal lined up early Monday because it was the only day he was available during the pick-up period, from Monday to Aug. 12. The Canadian, who now lives in London, had to catch a flight in the afternoon. "I thought it would be 30 to 60 minutes max," he said.
Mr. Segal was in line to get a pair of gymnastics tickets. When it became clear that the wait would be much longer than an hour, he and the people around him tried calling CoSport, he said. But no one seemed to have information so they turned to Twitter to see how long people at the front of the line had been waiting.
"People were getting inside but then they couldn't find the tickets," Mr. Segal said.
He said he was able to get some tickets directly from London 2012, a process that was more efficient and included text messages to say the tickets had been mailed and delivered.
He said he didn't opt to have the CoSport tickets sent to him because it was too expensive. Although Mr. Segal moved to London for school, he said he used his permanent Ottawa address and Canadian credit card for those tickets. "Your only option was CoSport," he said. "We just wanted tickets."Report Typo/Error

An Odd-Size Piece
Before cramming Junior's finger painting into a frame that's too small or letting a concert poster swim in one that's too big, consider a sectional-frame kit. Available in inch increments between 8 and 40 inches, the kits allow you to pick a size that is perfect (or will be after a little trimming of the piece). There are two "sides" in each kit, so you'll want one for the length and one for the width.
What You Need
- Nielsen Bainbridge frame kits ($8.60 to $19.60, dickblick.com)
- Flat-head screwdriver
- Piece of glass (prices vary; art-supply stores will cut to size for a small fee)
- Foam board
- Utility knife, for cutting foam board
How to Frame ItStep 1: Assemble three sides of the frame by connecting a shorter section to each end of a longer section. Use a screwdriver to tighten the joints.
Step 2: Sandwich the art between a piece of foam board and a piece of glass (both cut to the size of the artwork), then slide them all into the metal frame.
Step 3: Turn the whole thing upside down, and attach the fourth side of the frame, tightening the joints with screws.
Step 4: If there's a lot of wiggle room and the artwork and glass are rattling around inside the frame, use the included pressure clips to keep everything in place.

Zimbabwe's opposition party, the Movement for Democratic Change(MDC), waited six weeks to finally obtain results of the presidential race which its candidate, Morgan Tsvangirai won. The MDC knows President Mugabe has used the intervening time to alter vote counts and to initiate a campaign of terror against those who voted against him. Tsvangirai, who remains out of the country for his own protection, now must decide whether to engage in a runoff whose outcome most probably has already been decided by Mugabe or to boycott the election. A boycott means Mugabe wins by default. A breakaway faction of MDC, led by Arthur Mutambara, urged Tsvangirai to contest Mugabe even though the election will most probably be fraudulent. They indicated they would support Tsvangirai in any runoff.
If Tsvangirai boycotts the runoff, Mugabe automatically wins. If Tsvangirai contests the election whose outcome most probably is already being decided by henchmen of Mugabe, then he legitimizes the Mugabe victory. Frankly, it is a lose-lose situation and a win-win one for Mugabe.

Comments about Dap® Concrete Floor Level and Patch (10416):
I purchased this product and the required bonding / leveling liquid. When mixed in the prescribed quantity, it would not flow or self level. I added more of the leveling liquid to thin it out, but it still never would flow and come anywhere close to self level. I had to trowel the whole surface and ended up having to quickly remove a bunch of product before it cured.
In short, you have to buy the powder and an expensive liquid to mix with the powder, all for inferior results.

Comments about Dap® Concrete Floor Level and Patch (10416):
I mixed up as directed and even added extra water to bring to suggested consistency. I used a drill with attachment to mix. After mixing in excess of 5 minutes, i still had clumps and it was pancake consistency. Added more water and mixed more. Needless to say, it didn't move much when poured on floor and had to trowel it and now it's just a mess.

Fix it the right way.

On August 23, 2014 at 11:30 pm I was pulled over by an officer because my back license plate does not have a light for anyone to it. I bought this car from Vision Retail Center who inspected the car, registered the car. The dealership told me Tebo Financial said this was the car that they picked out for me for purchasing. The car salesman told me he had to tape the plate on because there was a broken screw that I had to fix myself. Now if Tebo picked out this said car for my purchase and it was registered and inspected at the dealership wouldn't they already know the car was illegal???? This company is a total rip-off!!!

The final section of Lightroom deals with building web galleries, and is one of the most useful sections, in my opionion. Again, the main window is split into four, with the main section displaying the gallery, the left has templates and the right giving options to customise those templates. As always the filmstrip is there to let you select images if you haven't done so in the Library already.
The templates on the left consist of a series of HTML and flash galleries and for the most are pretty simple and tasteful. If you choose to modify the colours otherwise, on your head be it! If you do, the changes can be saved as preset and then used for subsequent galleries you may wish to add your website.
The right side is where you can make those, hopefully restrained changes. The top section covers the galleries and shows the basic Lightroom galleries. I've added some other gallery templates here form the web, and a web search for 'Lightroom gallery templates' will bring up a list of templates from the Lightroom community, which you can download and install.
The Site Info box lets you add titles, email address and so on to your gallery, or you can edit this information directly in the main window by double clicking on the text within the gallery. The Colour Palette below this lets you change the colours of the background and text and so forth.
The Appearance panel allows you to add a logo, using the Identity Plate tool as well allowing you to set the image and thumbnail sizes. You can also add borders, add image numbers and drop shadows. Flash galleries are more limited in the amount of customisation you can do here, but HTML galleries have more options. One option is to allow you to change the grid layout of the thumbnails and let you adjust the amount of thumbnails displayed on the page. This is a simple drag operation. Click and drag the corner of the frame to the layout you like and the gallery will automatically refresh to match the new grid.

It also houses a four-in-one card reader, two speakers and a subwoofer, and your choice of a six or nine-cell battery.

Senator John Kerry (D-Mass.) today released a statement following Senate action to protect middle class families from a looming tax hike by passing the payroll tax holiday by a vote of 60 to 36.
"This fight shouldn't have taken nearly this long or been this cynical. We've got working families that count on this extra money to fill up the gas tank, put food on the table, or heat their home," said Sen. Kerry. " This should have been a no-brainer from the start but we're living in a moment of politics where even the easy and obvious is contentious. Fortunately in getting something done we also averted almost a 30 percent cut to doctors that was coming at us like a freight train on March 1st. I still have real concerns about the impact cuts to hospitals, clinical laboratories, and preventative care will have on the quality health care we're able to provide in Massachusetts. Every Medicare expert knows that the sustainable growth rate formula is irreparably flawed, and I'll continue to fight in the Senate to do something much more sensible and realistic."

What's New? Research Subscription Blog About

James Mullan
When it rolled out in June 2011, it was obvious that most of the features within Google+ were aimed at individual users rather then businesses or large organisations. Now it would appear that Google is implementing some changes to its flagship product which is bringing it closer to being used within the enterprise.

While sister company Viacom is still suing YouTube for $1 billion, CBS is hoping to get some cash out of the Web video mecca a more polite way. The Tiffany Network has had some success online, and currently has one of the more popular YouTube channels, but the eyeball business isn't as straightforward as it used to be.
Mark Sullivan in PC World:
The CBS shows will play in YouTube's new "Feature View" format, which, presumably, will be of a much higher quality than the grainy user-generated videos we're used to seeing at YouTube. In fact, I would guess the new format at YouTube would be closely modelled after Hulu, which has emerged as the standard-setter for long-form web video.
In terms of programming, the really good CBS shows like CSI and Survivor will not appear at YouTube initially, but rather some less popular stuff like Star Trek and Beverly Hills 90210. The big titles might come later.
Fine, but there may be a downside: CBS and Google may now scour the YouTube servers for any and all user-generated CBS video, and either remove or wrap ads around it, says Chad Cooper of OVGuide.com, an online video aggregation site. The former, to me, sounds a lot more likely. So it will be alot harder for you and me to jump on Google and find the latest Katie Couric interview, for example.

Digital View-Master
An unknown hacker transformed a good old View-Master with two of those useless keychain picture viewers.The device now sports two 1.5-inch LCD displays that will show slightly different images to produce the popular 3D effect. Electrically, it just needs to put the two 'next' buttons in parallel.
Let's hope the idea will percolate inside the Fisher-Price mother company.

As per media reports, Natco Pharma reportedly has made a formal request with the patent office to block Gilead's Sovaldi (sofosbuvir) hepatitis C drug on grounds it is not innovative enough.
Gilead, whose medicine has been hailed by doctors as a breakthrough in treating the liver-destroying disease, has come under fire over its product's $1,000 per pill price tag in the United States. If successful, the move could clear the way for Natco to launch a cheap generic version of the drug.
At 3.27 pm, Natco Pharma was trading at Rs715.00, down by 0.67%, with a volume of 13802 shares on the BSE.

Perricone Neuropeptide Deep Wrinkle Serum
By Colleen Mildred
from Toronto, Ontario, Canada
This is the first thing to apply after cleansing and toning or applying Serum Prep or any of your favourite products from any manufacturer. I love and have been using many of Dr Perricone products since Sept 2016, starting with the Neuropetide Cleanser and the Gold Collection. My skin was just beginning to sag and this has toned,, firmed and disminished age spots. The addition of this serum has increased this effect. A little goes a long way. I will purchase Ester C15 nextto work on my 1 stubborn age spot.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

from Toronto
Now ladies, if you are expecting instant results, this is not for you. If you are patient, I'm saying 6 to 8 weeks you will see results. I'll admit I went through the faze of BOTOX, I don't suggest it now. I was given this as a gift from my Mom, it was a SHOW STOPPER at the time. She bought one for each of her girls, swearing this stuff works, but you must be PATIENT. Well, it did work for all three of us girls but at different levels, I'm close to 60, I have not always been kind to my skin, when I was younger I loved to lay in the sun, I stopped when I got skin CANCER. Then started taking better care of my skin. I've tried just about everything out there, like I said even BOTOX. Personally I think this works a lot better, no painful needles. The lines on my forehead, GONE. Fine lines around my eyes, GONE. I had feather lines on my top lip, GONE. Like I said it takes time, you must be patient. Oh yeah, my sisters also saw amazing results, mostly forehead lines and crows feet, GONE. You do however have to use this product ritually. I find it is a little costly, but I work it out so for my Birthday, Mothers day, and Christmas I ask my children for PERRICONE products. THIS BEING NUMBER ONE!!!

Another Perricone favourite
By Forthy
from Kitchener Ontario
I just love the ease of application and texture of this product. It is really too soon to comment on it effectiveness but what I can say is that using it in combination with the other products in this line I am seeing crows feet and chin lines diminishing. As is the previous reviewer I as well have smoked and those lines aren't shown progress but it is too soon.You must be patient as it took years for lines to embed themselves so several months of Perricone won't cure everything overnight. Just love this line.

I have been on the deep wrinkle serum since February and it definitely works, however, for some of us it may take longer to see the results. I use to smoke and had wrinkles from that but they have seem to not be as deep and also the lines around my eyes are not as noticable including the number 11 lines. I had my doubts for awhile because I did not notice a difference BUT I decided to continue to use the produrct until after summer. FINIALLY the last week in June I looked in the mirror and my fine lines seemed to have disappeared and the deep wrinkles are not as deep anymore. That same week a waiter did not believe me when I asked for a senior discount and a few days later an acquaintance told me how good I looked. NO, I am not going to stop using this product in September. For some of us it may take longer to see a difference depending on our skin but give it a chance, it is expensive but I honestly think it is worth it. I have also tried the cold plasma sub D for the neck and love that product.

Perricone's Must Have Product!
By Janie
from Northern Ontario
While I love all of Dr. Perricone's products, they are pricey. But this product I HAVE to have! If you are older with deep wrinkles, this really works. Buy this, and then when the Shopping Channel offers great prices on his other items, take advantage of them. Any of his eye products are wonderful, along with the High Potency line. Just add this great serum, and you will be set. The Deep Wrinkle Serum lasts a long time and works like magic, especially for older skin types. It is the perfect base for other products. I can't be without it.

best of the lineup
By JOANNE
from Canada,BC,WHITE ROCK
I found this serum to be fantastic for the horizontal lines and wrinkles on my neck. The improvement was notable within a couple of weeks. I tested my perception by going without it for a few weeks, and definitely noticed a return in the visibility of lines. Although disappointed in some products in this line, I would highly recommend this serum to anyone with similar needs to mine. Top Perricone product, in my estimation.

On the Fence RE: this product
By CAROL
from TORONTO
I have used this product for awhile now and unfortunately am a smoker. This has done nothing for the deep lines around my mouth and chin, but it has worked well with the fine lines around my eyes. Would I re-order, I would have to think about it since it is expensive for the size, mind you a tiny bit goes a long way. That is why I said I am on the fence about re-ordering. For fine lines this product works well.

Do you remember~
My letters to you, which whispered of the dawn?
The passages opened for- what we have not become.
Do you still reflect on my spirit, restless-
When the birds call to you in the waking moons?
I was once your divine, now I am the angel who weeps.
I stood outside your window today-
Only to listen to you recite.
I hid myself well, behind the great rose-vines
-just to taste once more, the scent you inhale.
My mind holds stern;
This is my virtue-
My heart bleeds upon your hands;
This is my suffering
My voice is held mute;
Yet, still I call your name.
Do you remember~
When you would lift me high above the earth- to spread my delicate wings?
Today, I tried to fly without you
-but my wing has been broken...

I have a 99 STS with 105,000 miles. It was leaking some oil and found a stripped head bolt. This was fixed and now it uses oil (about 1 quart every 600 miles. Replaced the PCV valve and it uses a little less. before the repair it used maybe a quart every 3,00o miles. Also the mileage has dropped off from about 25 average to 20. It also has stalled 3 times in the last few weeks when I lift off the gas when coming to an intersection. Any comments on how to research this? Thanks
:yawn: If good ol' Destroyer is lurking, he can take my quote from Post #32 and slide it up here, 8.3 months later. To date, in order to maintain the oil level at halfway up the hashmark, I have added 12 oz. of Pennzoil Platinum 5W-30, and this covers a round trip to CT and another to OH, all highway. No coolant. 3 runs to 132 mph (GPS).
I did a code check and got some codes B1983, B1344, B1652, B1760, P1599, P1617 and U1064. The ones that seem most critical are P1599 Engine stall detected and P1617 Engine oil level switch circuit. What should I do next?
ehanso, All your codes are benign. Clear them and drive the car. Establish a code history, then begin a new code thread. Remember that when you clear codes the system needs 2 weeks of normal driving to settle out in order to pass an OBD emissions test.
I just reached 4,000 miles since my HG project, and I realized I had not checked the oil since then. I was surprised to see I needed to add 2 quarts to get the dipstick back up to 1/2 way between add and full. The low oil message never came on - neither did the low oil pressure. I suppose 2 quarts in 4,000 miles is pretty good at 100K+ miles - everything on the engine is original, except for the head gaskets and bolts and the other gaskets and seals I replaced during the project.
Took a bit of digging, but this is the perfect thread to share this tidbit............
GM TSB #02-06-01-009C of Oct. 23, 2003 gives quite a rundown on Northstar oil consumption, reasons, fixes, and combustion chamber cleaning. Well worth the read.......maybe one of our techs can post the entire thing....it isn't too long, BUT there are two points that bear repeating and which will raise a lot of eyebrows:
1. The current GM accepted oil consumption figure for a maintained moderate-mileage Northstar engine from the 1996 - 2003 year group is 2000 miles per quart.
2. If the oil level is at the MAX mark, or close, on the dipstick, then the engine is a half quart overfilled and the PCV system will rapidly scavenge the excess oil by sending it to the intake manifold to be burned. (This alone may lead to perceived high oil consumption.)
If you can't wait, subscribe your car to www.alldatadiy.com and read the TSB section. Eye-opener. Actually, anyone who has arrived since mid-2007 should read this entire thread - both pages.
Errr... My Northstar 2000 SLS with 135,000 is asking for a quart in 300 miles after a couple years of a quart every 1000 and a quart in 2000 back at 80,000 miles. I have "exercised" it... going to try 4 quarts of DELVAC and some more exercise.... I'll update you after that.
Holy smoking tail pipe Batman. Now THAT"S oil usage. Can't help but wonder if you have some other underlying problem.
History has shown the 4.9 to be the superior overall motor as compared with the N*. It's funny to see 4.9 owners state that there cars are not "N* powered" as a selling point when they sell their cars.

Better Wax Ring?
new posts
Re: Better Wax Ring?
Not yet. But I'm about too. Found them a couple of years back. Then they were going for $12.00+ and I thought to myself this will NEVER take off at that price point. $1.00+- vs. $12.00+-. NO WAY!
But I just recently saw them at around $3.00 (can't remember where) and that's right in the pocket to get them to move.
My worry was that the adhesive would come off but someone said that it bonds tight to the open grained porcelain.
Anyone know if it is code approved for IPC?
Re: Better Wax Ring?
Just checked IPC but didn't any prohibitions. Maybe Mark would have some insight?Buy cheap, buy twice.
Re: Better Wax Ring?
I tried them, they are junk on a used toilet, the old wax makes them not stick even if you wipe real good (maybe a chemical would help but now thats another trip to the truck) On a new toilet they are great no leaks easy install. $3 at Amazon.com Somebody on here told me about the wax thing I didn't listen and ended up with 8 of them. I use them on all new toilet installs trying to get rid of them. plus you have to carry a 3" or 4" model for the situation.Last edited by Cuda; 01-04-2010, 12:09 AM.Seattle Drain Service

Re: Better Wax Ring?
Used to be that old toilets had such a deep horn that you didn't even need
a flange. Just a big rope of putty and bolt it to the floor.
Cuda's right in that the bowl has to be absolutely clean for these things to
stick. Who wants to take the extra time for that on a reset? Plus you have
to carry at least 3 different sizes to cover all possibilities. I don't have
enough room in the van as it is. Also it doesn't fit into C.I. without some
lubrication. Another unnecessary step.
So JC & Ben, save your money. Sometimes the old ways are better.
Re: Better Wax Ring?
a few years back, fluidmaster had a counter day at the supply house. the rep was demo-ing their line of waxless rings.
this was the deal. buy a waxless ring and get a free 400a ballcock
cost of the ring was around $4.00. cost of a ballcock at the time was $6.00.
i told him give me a case.
i've gone through many more cases since then
but i still have all the waxless rings still sitting on the shelf
rick.phoebe it is
Re: Better Wax Ring?
I got some samples a couple years ago, they were a big pain in the arse in my humble opinion.
bowl wax is easier
Re: Better Wax Ring?
I still can't believe we don't have a positive seal for a toilet to pipe hook up.
Re: Better Wax Ring?
Originally posted by saysflushable View PostI still can't believe we don't have a positive seal for a toilet to pipe hook up.
Then it could have those two sealing ribs like on the one Gear Junkie posted.
But it won't happen. Enjoy your wax. Better not get any on your shoe sole.
Re: Better Wax Ring?
They could make it somewhat like the Toto skirted toilets, with the offset boot, and a flexible rubber gasket inside the inlet, that allows the toilet, which has basically about a 4" integral pipe like stub,{horn}, made out of the china, that slips down snugly into rubber gasket. They could do the same for standard toilets. Just make an integral horn out of the china of the toilet, at the outlet.
For new install they could have a flange with rubber already installed. For replacement jobs, they could have a cap like piece, to go over current flange, with an opening & gasket in the middle, like the Toto boot.Still would have to seal the cap to existing flange with a wax seal, but it would be exposed and you could tell if the seal worked properly.Toilet can then be taken in and out, without the mess of replacing the wax seal.
P.s. Sorry if you can't follow my rambling, but I don't know how to draw on the computer. LOL. Love this site so far and all the info. As you can tell I'm new to this.

A bold Cleveland Heights bank heist
(Cuyahoga County) - There was an armed bank robbery earlier today at the 5th/3rd Bank located at 12401 Cedar Road, Cleveland Heights.
The two subjects were described as thin build, black males, approximately in their early 20s. Both subjects wore hoodies and covered their faces as much as possible.
The subjects told the individuals to lie on the floor, this is a robbery. These appear to be the same two subjects responsible for the recent two armed bank robberies in Cleveland Heights.
We would greatly appreciate your help in getting these robbers photos out to the public. Please refrain from showing the bank employees or customers to the public.
Information regarding the identity of these two suspects can be provided to the Cleveland Heights Police Department or the Cleveland Division of the FBI.
Tips can remain anonymous. Reward money is available for information leading to the successful identification and prosecution of these individuals.
These two are considered armed and dangerous. People that may have information regarding these two are strongly encouraged to contact law enforcement.
