North Korea plans to launch a rocket carrying a satellite between December 10 and 22, a spokesman for the Korean Committee for Space Technology said Saturday, according to state-run media.
The Unha-3 rocket will launch from the Sohae Space Center in North Phyongan Province and put a "working satellite" into orbit, the report by the official Korean Central News Agency said.
The planned launch is unusual because it comes during the wintertime and only months after a failed attempt in April.
On that occasion, Pyongyang also said the rocket was supposed to put a satellite into orbit, but the launch was seen by many other countries as cover for a ballistic missile test and drew international condemnation.
U.S. State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said another launch "would be a highly provocative act that threatens peace and security in the region."
It would be also in direct violation of U.N. Security Council resolutions 1718 and 1874, under which North Korea is barred from testing ballistic missile technology, she said in a statement.
"Devoting scarce resources to the development of nuclear weapons and long-range missiles will only further isolate and impoverish North Korea," she said. "The path to security for North Korea lies in investing in its people and abiding by its commitments and international obligations."
The North's failed launch in April soured relations with the United States and scuppered a deal for Washington to provide thousands of tons of food aid to the North's malnourished population.
KCNA said a second version of the same Korean-made Kwangmyongsong-3 satellite is to be launched this time.
Scientists and technicians have analyzed the mistakes made in April, when the rocket broke apart shortly after takeoff, and have worked to improve the reliability and precision of the satellite and carrier rocket, the news agency reported.

guys give me some feedback...
Hi everyone,
I'm working for renowned oraganization, always design and code what my clients want.....
First time i do what i really want.....I love abstract ..colors ...sketch...
Thats why i do a liitle experiment with my personal web page, trying my best to make it look appealing to the viewers.
Can you guys give me some feedback on it...and tell me how i'm doing.
http://www.champion.info/creativeideasI like your site its very creative and unique.thank you so much for your feedbackmy eyes hurthey,
why u saying that your eyes hurt...????????? :shock:Im sure I replied to this... must have gotten eaten...
I like the picture inside, but I think the background image is a little too much, I would take that out and change the way it works. Maybe use a subtle repeating bg.
Also the slider with your content in - I wouldnt have the background the same as the background its sliding over, it makes it look a little broken - maybe have a think about that too.
Thats it :Dthanks rob i will definitely go through it....Yes the outer box bg is a little too much...
I'm not sure about the "combat" style font face used for the "creative ideas" ... but thats me.
Overall 7 outta 10.As I was going through it I was finding it very hard to find anything wrong with it. Other than this - you should keep your art on one page, so if you were to remove the art from the background, and keep it simple - say just a gradient-filled gray box with a white surround?
Something like that would keep the focus on the content.
I do like the overall design though!thanks tom for ur suggestionHey,
I like the design, very nice. I have just oe small suggestion, remove the outline around the two navigational arrows, using:
outline: 0;
Other than that very nice.hey ronnie i used ur suggestion thnks a ton... :DHope I'm not to late to the party. I have a suggestion that kinda gets to me.
On your projects page I wouldn't necessarily try to use the entire image for that small thumbnail. Maybe do a cropping of a section of the website or piece that stand out. For instance maybe the logo or something in the design that is striking.
Also look into setting up a contact page with areas for people to fill out. This appears to be more professional.
I am glad to see you broke out of the normal flow of structure websites tend to be leaning toward these days.hi kevseyrs thanks for ur freedback i use a simple form in contact us page....and other one will be uploaded soon..
thnks a ton :DOne more very small thing I have noticed mate, how about adding a favicon. You see how here on Chris' site he uses an asteriks type thing which appears in the address bar, on tabs whithin your browser and in bookmarks.
You can do this by adding something like so in your <head>:
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico">
When you create it in your image editor, make it 16 x 16 px and be sure to save it as type .ico
Hope this helps mate.

The dozens of weapons a newspaper says the family of Oscar Pistorius owns are only for "sport and hunting," the family says.
The family, in a statement released Tuesday, sought to distance itself from Henke Pistorius, Oscar's father, who said that some of the guns are for protection from crime -- protection he said the African National Congress government is not providing.
The family's statement also was at odds with one by Oscar Pistorius, who told the magistrate who granted him bond that he kept the handgun that killed his girlfriend at his bed because he's "been a victim of violence and of burglaries."
The "Pistorius family own weapons purely for sport and hunting purposes," the Olympic icon's family said in the statement provided by a spokesman.
Beeld, an Afrikaans language newspaper, has reported the Pistorius family owns 55 weapons -- between his father, grandfather and two uncles -- not counting Oscar's six guns.
The family's statement came in response to a controversy triggered when Henke Pistorius defended the arsenal by telling a UK newspaper that white South Africans need guns for self-defense because the ANC, which gained control in 1994 with the collapse of South Africa's apartheid system, does a poor job of protecting them.
"Some of the guns are for hunting and some are for protection, the hand guns," Henke Pistorius is quoted as telling a Telegraph reporter. "It speaks to the ANC government -- look at white crime levels, why protection is so poor in this country, it's an aspect of our society."
While he said he's never used any of his four firearms -- two rifles and two handguns -- for self-defense, "that doesn't mean I haven't been hijacked, attacked."
"As a family, we value life much too much to produce guns at every opportunity we can use them," Henke Pistorius told the Telegraph. "I have been in positions where I can use a gun but we have been brought up in a way that we value the lives of others very highly."
The ANC immediately attacked Henke Pistorius, saying his statement was not only "devoid of truth, it is also racist."

A Survey of Clergy and Their Views on Origins
What do today's pastors think about science? What views do they hold on creation and evolution and how strongly do they hold them? How do origins issues impact their ministries? These were just a few of the questions that motivated us at BioLogos to commission a survey of pastors on origins
Framing the Conversation
When Christians discuss creation, evolution, and design, it is easy to focus immediately on areas of controversy and disagreement. We think it is important to start by pointing out certain areas on which nearly all Christians agree.
Series: Ephesians 4:1-6: A Call of Christian Unity
This series discusses the importance of unity among Christ's believers. Ross Hastings, an expert in the areas of both chemistry and pastoral theology, is eager to see the church seek out unity rather than divisions in this science/faith interface. Unpacking Ephesians 4:1-6, he explains that unity in Christ through the Holy Spirit is the primary concern of both Jesus as seen in John 17 and Paul in Ephesians 4, making this matter pressing. He urges all believers to be in agreement that God indeed created, yet to be in dialogue over how that creative process occurred.
A Plea to My Shepherds
... I would exhort these, my fellow conservative evangelical shepherds and thinkers, to set aside all reticence and fear, emerge from anonymity, and storm the forum of discourse, engaging this most pressing matter with vigor, equanimity, and humility. In doing so, know upfront that there will be few handrails to guide; you will not be building upon an extensive precedence of published conservative thought.
Science and Scientism in Biology: The Origin of Morality
The problem is that as human beings, we know that goodness exists, so it must be accounted for, and if one is a staunch believer in scientism, it must be accounted for scientifically.
Evangelicalism and Adaptation
I look my students dead straight in the eye and tell them that no matter what, debate within the intellectual sphere cannot and should not take away or diminish the importance of the personal nature of their faith. The intellect, to use a scientific phrase, while necessary for the faith, is not sufficient
A Scientific Commentary on Genesis 7:11
Although committed to the principle of sola Scriptura, Calvin recognized that the Bible would have been written in terms its original recipients would have understood. Calvin inherited the medieval cosmology of his time, a way of viewing the world heavily influenced by Greek thought and one which was about to receive shocks from astronomers such as Copernicus and Galileo. But not just yet.
Dissonance and Harmony
People hold clearly discordant points of view, and it would be dishonest to ignore the conflict. Yet some voices emphasize the dissonance without any note of harmony to put it in context. Too often, science and faith becomes a hostile battle of worldviews, sounding angry, dissonant chords even among fellow Christians. But civil, gracious dialogue is possible.
Science and the Bible: Assessing the Evangelical Encounter with Evolution
Having now completed our study of the five main views about "Science and the Bible" held by conservative Protestants, I conclude with a final column, assessing the whole situation as I see it today.
Does Evolution Compromise Human Morality?
Once we have a scientific hypothesis for how something exists, it is tempting to make the philosophical inference that this is also why it exists.
Series: Harmonizing Science, Ethics, and Praxis
In this three-part series, Cal DeWitt offers insights and examples of why science and ethics must work together to help us make informed, practical decisions within our society. DeWitt's science-ethics-praxis model provides a framework by which we can live more effectively as God's stewards.
Series: The Church Fathers and Two Books Theology
In this series, Mark Mann explores what many of the great Christian theologians and saints of the Church have said about how God speaks in and through God's other great book: Nature, or Creation. Listening to figures from the the 2nd to the 18th centuries,Mann proposes three main points:
Christians should think of Scripture and Creation as two "books" that should be read together for understanding the fullness of God's self-revelation;
Science is a God-given tool for discerning the handiwork of God in Creation, and is fully compatible with God's Word revealed in Scripture, and therefore,
Christians have nothing to fear from science.
Series: To Serve and Preserve—Genesis 2 and the Human Calling
In this series, David Buller pays careful attention to the original language and cultural context of Genesis 2, revealing that our responsibility to care for creation is a sacred task given to us by God, not merely a modern secular activity. By taking Scripture seriously, we learn that we have a God-given mandate to be diligent stewards of His creation.
Southern Baptist Voices: And in Conclusion . . .
My goal in leading this organization for these past three and a half years has been to lay the groundwork to help my fellow evangelicals see that the conflict between our faith and mainstream science is not as great as they thought it was. In the process, my thinking has been significantly shaped by listening to people who think differently than I do
Medieval Christianity and the Rise of Modern Science, Part 1
There has been no great conflict between science and religion: on the contrary, Christianity was an essential factor in the rise of modern science.
What I Would Like To Hear A Young-Earth Creationist Say
It may come as a surprise that when asked by The Colossian Forum what one thing he would like to hear Young Earth Creationists say, his answer had nothing to do with scientific statements at all. Rather, his hope is to hear a single simple phrase: "We're both part of the same family."
Science and the Bible: Theistic Evolution, Part 2
Everyone reading this column originated in the union of two cells, one from each parent. Everyone reading this is also created in the image of God. Each of these two sentences is true, but the truths they proclaim are of a different order. The first neither implies nor negates the second.
Willing to be Wrong
The debate is often not about evidence, but about making sure that others do not transgress our interpretive boundaries and insist that we're wrong. We've bitten from the tree of knowledge and we love its taste.
Conversations in Creation
Since the BioLogos/Highway Media collaboration From the Dust made its worldwide debut this year, we've been excited to hear how others have been using the film to jump start their own conversations with fellow Christians about science and faith .
The Questions Update: Why Should Christians Consider Evolutionary Creation?
At BioLogos, we view evolutionary creation as a description of how and when God brought about all the creatures on earth. We do not see God as distant from this process, for God did not just set up the universe at the beginning and let it go. Instead, he upholds the universe moment by moment, sustaining all things by the power of his word.

Not sure, on the ropes.
Ok we won't know until tomorrow, but this can be discussed for some time..
I'm not sure they deserve to make it. Yeah if you total all the quarters they played solid, and were actually ahead this season then they should make it.
Since the only thing that counts is pure wins, do you think they should make it? Especially since we seem to be out classed....
If they win and the vikings don't then yes. Does the cardinals or broncos/chargers deserve to be in the playoffs since they play in the worst 2 divisions in football. One or two teams may end up 8-8 and make the playoffs.
I think for a long time the NFC North has been pretty weak. Usually it's a race between two teams at the most...
Some divisions have been pretty solid.
I'm just not sure we deserve to be in the post season. I want to be but I also don't want to watch the Bears get destroyed!
I think they need a real change of scheme to win past the first game. So far I haven't seen anything of the sort..
I think that we shouldn't make the playoffs. Poor performance on our defense and offense make it very unlikely that we will. They don't seem to have any heart in the game anymore.
I'm with Ski on this one. I'd hate to see them make it to the playoffs only to be beaten all over the field.
I agree. I dont think they deserve it. They blew games they should have won. I dont think I want to see them back their way into the playoffs only to have their asses handed to them in the first round....
though, in the first round we could get Tampa or Dallas at the 6 seed..... if it is Tampa we could prove that we should have won that game the first time. If we win that game, we could show Atlanta or Carolina that we should have won that game the first time as well..
Ironically, if Tampa does win the 6 seed, and if we beat them, then both "rematches" will be exact rematches. Same teams, same stadiums
yes we do
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 10 people that are taking space on this planet. We are doomed who live in real life.
To my bud. Your brain is a BB in a boxcar.
Does the 8-8 chargers deserve to go to the playoffs. They are killing the broncos right now. The patriots are 11-5 and they are not going yet a team in a shitty division is going by default because they won in their division. That is screwed up.

Comments about South Shore Copley Wood Platform Bed 6 Piece Bedroom Set in Light Maple:
Purchased the set to use in a smaller bedroom when we moved - the furniture from the previous house was too big. This is easy to assemble with one caveat: bring a big dose of patience and an additional set of hands.One end panel on the 5 drawer chest had a straight edge cut the full width. Once placed in the room, that edge will not be seen.

Obama did not say he would close Guantanamo. He criticized Congress for placing restrictions on transferring detainees who have been cleared for release, although he signed the legislation Congress passed. To his credit, Obama lifted the moratorium on detainee transfers to Yemen and appointed a new senior envoy at the State Department and Department of Defense to oversee detainee transfers to third countries. But Obama did not pledge to use the waiver provision contained in Section 1028(d) of the 2013 National Defense Authorization Act that would allow the Secretary of Defense to authorize transfers when it is in the national security interest of the United States. Nor did he promise to stop blocking the release of detainees cleared by habeas corpus proceedings.

Women-owned businesses tend to donate an average of 10 percent of profits, and those with the highest revenues are, not surprisingly, the most generous. (Source) Contributing to a worthwhile cause has many benefits beyond the act of goodwill itself. It gives local business owners an opportunity to embed themselves in the community and...

Exterior: Blue Interior: Black/Titanium Clean title, non-smoker, with 153k miles. This is my current commuter and it drives excellent. The car, however, is not new and it does show some wear. There are some dime-sized door-ding marks on both sides of the car (have to love parking in the city), as well as 2 cracked fog lamps. They are still operational, but need new bulbs. The interior of the car shows normal wear and tear, and I am a non-smoker. The car has been serviced regularly and on schedule. As this is my commuter, I've spent the money to make sure it continues to run well. The only reason I am selling, is that I have recently purchased a new car and my commute has changed, so I don't have a real need for the BMW. The car is registered through November 2010 and has had no problems clearing smog. Per Kelly Blue Book, the vehicle is in fair condition.

That description and interviews with parolees led them to Ward and Williams.
McCarthy said Ward surrendered on Saturday night without a struggle, but Williams tried to escape. No weapon was recovered, he said.
Hadiya's was killed a week after she performed at one of the events surrounding Obama's second inauguration.
Shatira Wilks, one of Hadiya's cousins, said the family was elated that the suspects were in jail.
"However there is no level of comfort -- not long-term comfort -- and we are still miserable," she told CNN's Anderson Cooper. "(Hadiya) is the face of every parent's dream child. Hadiya had so many different things awaiting her in life. She was a wonderful, wonderful kid. My little cousin really was an angel."
She said Hadiya was hanging out with a volleyball team -- a group of girls and one boy -- when she was killed.
The killing -- which occurred in the city's Hyde Park neighborhood near the Obamas' Chicago home -- drew the first couple's attention.
First lady Michelle Obama attended Hadiya's funeral Saturday, and her husband wrote a note to Hadiya's family that was printed on the funeral program: "We know that no words from us can soothe the pain, but rest assured that we are praying for you, and that we will continue to work as hard as we can to end this senseless violence."
Hadiya's parents are in Washington to attend the State of the Union address, McCarthy said.
Hadiya, who often urged friends to stay away from gangs, was an honor student and band majorette at King College Prep School.

A northwestern Indiana high school's boys basketball coach faces felony charges that he engaged in sexual activities with a female student.
Lake County court documents say 26-year-old Benjamin Chinn and the 17-year-old girl kissed and engaged in sexual activities in his classroom and office at Hammond's Morton High School.
Defense attorney Scott King tells the Post-Tribune that Chinn denies the allegations and says he had only talked with the girl. King says he doesn't know of any physical evidence or any corroboration of the girl's account from other witnesses.
Hammond Police Chief Brian Miller tells The Times of Munster that the investigation began after the girl confided in her father and he called police.
Chinn is out of jail on bond after his arrest Tuesday on child seduction charges.

BlownZ: 388 LSX Rebuilds Adds Boost, Lowers Compression Ratio
If you had a 5,000 square foot shop, two full time pro fabricators, and the cell phone numbers of every engineer, marketing guy, and owner for all the aftermarket companies you'd ever heard of at your disposal, and you DIDN'T build some crazy, bad-ass race car, you would be out of your mind. Here at powerTV, we happen to have those resources at our fingertips, so it should come as no surprise that we're putting together a no-effort-spared NMCA 275 Drag Radial Camaro right under our own roof.
Our shop dawgs Sean G. and Dean J. are in the middle of a flat-out thrash to get our 2002 F-Body aka "BlownZ" ready to hit the track this race season, and every day brings us a little bit closer to completion. We'll be racing in the NMCA West 275 class, but will also venture into Outlaw 8.5 and possibly some LSX Shootout races. We're documenting everything in detail for full tech articles on each aspect of this build, but we want to keep you up to date on some of the important milestones we're passing every week. Bookmark this page – we'll be updating as we go along, and putting in links to all the detailed stories.
Where do we begin? When our "new" Z28 rolled into the shop, it was a running, albeit not completely sorted, race car. But since our motto here is "never leave anything untouched," we dove right in and began reworking the car into our own vision of what we wanted.
Project Build Diary:
May 3, 2012: BlownZ 388 LSX Rebuilds Adds Boost, Lowers Compression Ratio
In our debut season with BlownZ last year, our primary goal was more or less to get our feet wet and learn the race car. This was our first endeavor with a race car with this much power on this kind of tire, and so while we certainly had every intention of going rounds, our primary focus was making good, clean runs to gather data and knowledge from. As we looked forward to 2013, however, we were ready to take the gloves off, and that meant that during the off season, our 388-inch bullet had to come out and go under the knife, so to speak.
Our goal in the horsepower department was 1,500, and to do so, we needed to step up to a larger ProCharger supercharger, which in itself, prompted the need for not only a winter refresh, but a lowered compression ratio and other new components to support the increased boost levels.
The off season adventure got underway by removing the LSX engine and sending to L&R Engines in Santa Fe Springs, Calif. for disassembly and inspection. Once everything checked out fine, it was time to begin tackling our list of changes and upgrades.
The rebuild was fairly routine, as we had the block hot-tanked, checked, and honed to fit our new JE Pistons and Total Seal rings. We also installed Clevite bearings for the Lunati Pro Series crank and GRP rods, while the Comp Cams camshaft was placed back into the block with its original roller bearings.
Of course, at the heart of our new combination is the awesome new ProCharger F-1X blower, with a 72,000 rpm maximum impeller speed (up from 68,000), a half-inch larger outlet diameter, and a full inch larger inlet diameter from the F-1R that we ran last season. In a conversation with engine builder Steve Morris, who specializes in ProCharger engine applications, he told us that the F-1X is good for about 300-400 more horsepower over the F-1R, and will deliver up to 38 psi of boost from its self-contained design that relies on a 5.4:1 step-up ratio.
We've only got so much space here in this project update that only scratches the surface of our detailed tech feature highlighting the rebuild of BlownZ's LSX 388, so do yourself a favor and click on over and read the complete story and see tons of high quality images from L&R Engines at the link below.
April 3, 2012: BlownZ Upgrades In 2013; Testing And Troubles…
We had a fairly successful first year of racing with our Project BlownZ Camaro, running a best of 8.24 at 168 MPH that, while a little short of our expectations, was quick enough to earn the title of the quickest and fastest magazine project vehicle in history. But we're not content with running in the eights, and so the car underwent some wholesale changes in the off season in an effort to improve upon our performance and, hopefully, crack into the seven-second zone early on in the 2013 season.
The first big change, which was part of our plan from the very beginning, was a switch over to ProCharger's killer new F1-X supercharger that's taken the X275 world by storm over the last year since it's release. We made just over 1,100 RWHP with our F1-R bolted to the 388-inch LSX bullet, but we knew the X would get us over the performance hump and into the same realm as our competition in the 275 Drag Radial class.
There were some changes made in the latter part of last season, including the addition of Chris Alston's Chassisworks' new CDS gear drive system for the blower, but the bulk of it all came during the winter (if you can call it that in California) as we went all-in for an even better sophomore season.
Our changes included:
- ProCharger F1X Supercharger
- Re-build the 388 with JE 9.5:1 compression pistons
- Aeromotive Belt-Driven Fuel Pump
- New TCI Transmission w/TCI 6-bolt Convertor
- Moser Gun-Drilled Axles, Aluminum Center Section
- Remove the Radiator for a Chiseled Water Tank/Rule Pump
Once everything was buttoned up, we headed out to our local 1/8-mile strip in Barona, Calif. in February for some shakedown runs, but the outing didn't go quite as planned, as we discovered a few gremlins that only track-time can truly expose. We made three passes, and all of them were busts. Out main issues revolved around a soft tune, a converter that we determined to be a little too tight for our combination, and a "phantom" rev-limiter that wasn't allowing the engine to exceed 7,700 rpm, causing the car to leave and run like a snail.
With a few weeks to work on things, we then towed up to Bakersfield and Auto Club Famoso Raceway for the WCHRA season opener to make some laps and compete in the True 10.5 class. We had a new converter in the car and hoped that our rev-limiter issue was solved, but as we quickly found out, the problem was still present. To add to that, our tune-up was pretty fat. We did record a best of 5.50 at 130 MPH, but that's certainly not where we want to be. Hey, no one said this drag racing thing was easy.
March 12, 2013: BlownZ's Fuel System And New Lithium Pros Battery
So we've dug into our valvetrain combination and then our exhaust system in our two latest project updates; now we've got to work on feeding this bad boy.
Our newest tech feature regarding Project BlownZ dives into our new Aeromotive fuel system that we've selected to fuel our supercharged engine, along with he components from Fragola Performance Systems that we've picked up to complete the setup.
Our pump, an Aeromotive EFI Pro Series unit, is designed for and can easily handle as much as 1,700 horsepower in a forced induction EFI engine and a staggering 2,600 horsepower in a naturally aspirated, carbureted motor. With almost double the flow capabilities of Aeromotive's famous A1000 pump, this thing is killer and more than enough to accommodate our needs. In addition to the pump, we're utilizing Aeromotive's EFI Pro Series Fuel Pressure Regulator and EFI Pro Series fuel filters. The VP Racing Fuels C16 fuel is fed through Fragola's 3000 Series race hose and fittings from a custom-built two gallon fuel cell to Holley LS fuel rails for our Hi-Ram intake outfitted with FAST 160-pound fuel injectors.
Elsewhere, we've also made a change in the battery department on BlownZ in the name of saving precious weight, opting for one of Lithium Pros' ultra light lithium batteries. Within our fuell-length tech review, we've dug deeper into the technology of lithium ion batteries and its advantages, but oen of the big selling points for drag racers is that these batteries are 60-80% lighter than a comparable lead acid battery. The battery seen here that we installed in BlownZ weighs just nine pounds, which is 26-1/2 pounds lighter than a same-size lead acid battery for the car. Of course, with an impressive depth of discharge of 80 percent and quick charging, there are obvious pluses beyond just weight.
You might recall in our recent feature on the Chassisworks gear drive unit that we've intentionally changed our combination around to run the fuel pump directly off the crank as an accessory drive so that we could cut down from two batteries to one, and this is a part of that process.
March 12, 2013: Exhaust System Tech: BlownZ Gets Its Pipes
In our last update, we took a closer look at the engine build of our LSX powerplant, and in specific, our cylinder heads and valvetrain combination. As any gearhead knows though,once that air makes its way past the exhaust valve, it takes a well designed set of headers to make the entire package work well, and that's the subject of our latest BlownZ tech article, as we take a glance at the new headers that the folks at Kooks Custom Headers have 'Kook'd' up for us.
Based on our engine combination, power output, power adder, and other attributes that all come together int a header-building formula, the team at Kooks fabricated us a set of 304 stainless long-tube headers, featuring two-inch primaries and a 3.5-inch collector. Kooks developed these headers, which weigh in at 35 pounds with all the hardware attached, specifically for LS-powered, fourth-generation GM F-bodies like our Camaro.
At many drag strips, and particularly those here in California, we can't simply run open exhaust, so we've got to make ourselves legal, and for that, we turned to Vibrant Performance and their four-inch Race Mufflers. We've also picked up two four-inch oval stainless steel tubing sections, two oval-to-round four-inch OD transition adapters, and stainless V-band flange assemblies to complete our exhaust setup.
In this update, we offer a glance at the components we'll be utilizing before getting our hands dirty, welding the O2 sensor bungs to the header and piecing the entire system together out in the shop.
March 12, 2013: New Video From The Track
Last week, our video crew churned out an awesome new highlight video filmed last season at the Auto Club Raceway in Pomona during one of our first outings with BlownZ, showing our shutoff 9.57 pass followed by a our much improved 5.62 to the 1/8-mile in eliminations. Hit the video below and have a look!
February 1, 2013: 388 LSX Race Engine – Trick Flow/TEA Cylinder Heads
We've already covered the short block build of our 388-inch bullet in-depth here on Dragzine, and with that complete, it's time to move on to the rest of the engine build. Naturally, as we work our way upward, that brings us to the cylinder heads, for which we've called upon Trick Flow Specialties/Total Engine Airflow.
As any novice engine builder can attest, cylinder heads are one of the primary ingredients for making peak horsepower, so we knew we had to select the proper head (that also fit within the rules) to flow the kind of numbers we had in mind. Our good friend Shawn Miller at Virginia Speed, who performed the engine build, determined with the folks at Trick Flow that a set of their TFS 265cc LSX-R heads were just the answer. Once in Miller's hands, Total Engine Airflow in Tallmadge, Ohio port the head for maximum flow.
Filling out the drivetrain, Ferrea supplied us with a set of their titanium intake valves stainless steel exhaust valves, all from their 6000 series Competition lineup. For valve springs, we turned to COMP Cams, who hooked us up with their Elite drag race dual 1.500-inch diameter valve springs to handle the valves while under operation at more than 9,000 RPM with a big lift cam and high cylinder pressures, because a set of wimpy just don't do in those conditions. Last, but certainly not least, we turned to Jesel to supply us with their very trick shaft rocker setup and a set of keyed lifters, topped with some of their drop dead sexy billet aluminum valve covers.
This article covers every step of the cylinder prep process, and even dives into the flow numbers and the specific details of the port work performed by Total Airflow, so if you're curious to know more about our setup or just want to glean some knowledge for own engine build, you'll want to check out the story in its entirety.
January 15, 2013 – Keepin' It Slick: BlownZ's Dry Sump Oil System
If the absolute end goal of your racing program is to make horsepower (by not giving up horsepower) at all costs, there's simply no other choice in the oiling department but a dry sump system. And in the vast majority of heads-up race cars where power wins and a lack of horsepower misses the qualifying field, dry sumps are a virtual requirement. There are of course other benefits — and cons — to a dry sump, which are hit on in detail in this latest update on BlownZ.
Getting down to the nitty gritty details, most of the hard parts of our dry sump puzzle come courtesy of our friends at Peterson Fluid Systems, including their lightweight, five-stage R4 dry sump pump, pre-filter, a seven-inch drag racing reservoir tank, oil tank heater, inline temperature sender housing, and their remote oil filter mount with a system primer. For the oil pan, we went with an ARE piece designed for the LS engine, and Fragola 3000 Series hoses and fittings completed the dry sump system loop for us in great fashion.
Naturally, even more important than how you circulate oil through the intricate system that is a race motor is WHAT you circulate through it. An engine is a sizable investment, and good oil is like a insurance policy on your investment. So, we got hooked up with Royal Purple, who turned us on to their XPR (Extreme Performance Racing) 10-W40 oil designed specifically for the demands of a high-horse race engine.
In this update, we take an in-depth look at each part of the dry sump system on BlownZ's LSX bullet, providing a break-down of each of the components needed to make it operational.
January 14, 2013 – Chassisworks CDS Gear Drive On BlownZ
Hardcore supercharged racing applications like our Project BlownZ have for years been shifting away from the more standard use of supercharger belts in favor of a gear drive system that takes the stress and load off the snout of the crankshaft, while also alleviating the problems that belts inherently have in all-out race use. With BlownZ in the shop for the winter for upgrades for the coming 2013 season, we took the opportunity to upgrade our drive system with Chris Alston's Chassisworks' new Component Gear Drive system that brings to the table not only a gear drive setup for single and dual superchargers, but some really trick accessory drives on the single blower units that can drive your alternator, fuel pumps, water pump, steering pump, and distributor, should you so choose.
Chassisworks has developed these units for a number of different engine combinations, and we had the opportunity to bolt on one of the first pieces designed for the LSX powerplant to mate up with our ProCharger F-1R blower (and eventually the F-1X). We also opted for a lone accessory drive for our new fuel pump from Aeromotive that we've gone to. The fuel pump, Aeromotive's Billet Hex Drive, was a necessary addition to fulfill our goal of downgrading our power draw, as we're not running an alternator and recently went from two 16-volt batteries to one.
Another part of this update on BlownZ, and one that comes as part of the move to the gear drive, is our new ATI Super Damper balancer that ATI Performance Products whipped up for us to our specifications. What we received was a lightweight damper that actually encompasses seven different part numbers, with a dual-keyway hub (a must when running a blower), a thinner physique, and a face with three extra bolts to bolt to the face of the six-puck hub of the gear drive.
January 10, 2013 – Installing A Chiseled Water Tank And Intercooler
If a supercharger is going to make the optimum power — and that's pretty well the reason why we drag racers do what we do — then cooling that air being forced into the engine at an incredible rate is key. To keep our 388-inch LSX bullet fed with cool flowing air from our ProCharger F1-R blower, we set out to install a brand new intercooler and water tank system inside the confines of our Camaro.
The new setup consists of a water tank and intercooler from Chiseled Performance, a Rule in-tank pump, 3.5-inch intercooler piping and VanJen clamps from Vibrant Performance, and water lines and fittings from Fragola.
The new intercooler comes out-of-the-box with the tank already mounted inside, however, the end-user is required to perform a little welding work to install the mounting brackets for installation. After all, not every car is the same.
When all was said and done and testing was complete on the dyno to see how the new intercooler and water tank setup performed, we recorded a maximum blower air temperature of 385 degrees at 6.250 RPM, with an intake temperature of 85 degrees at 3,500 RPM. Plus, our water temperature never peaked over 168 degrees — much lower than a car typically runs at.
October 25, 2012 – Our New Holley Hi-Ram Intake From Wilson Manifolds
Those of you familiar with our 2002 Camaro BlownZ will know about our desire to run 7s with our ProCharger F1R equipped 388 LSX engine. As part of our mission, we equipped the engine with TFS 265cc cathedral port heads and the new Holley Hi-Ram intake manifold. The Holley Hi-Ram (see our article here) is an outstanding intake manifold that is a tunnel ram-type intake for the LSX engine. However, because the Hi-Ram is built for everything from hot street applications (500 hp) to entry-level race engines, it simply can't be all things to all people. After we go the engine running down the race track and on the dyno, we discovered that for our power levels of 1,300-plus horsepower, the Hi-Ram simply didn't have the plenum volume that our engine needed in order to produce maximum horsepower with optimal efficiency.
October 15, 2012 – Moroso's LS Valley Plate And Our Cooling Setup Swap
Despite the best-laid plans when piecing a race car together, there are certain things that you simply can't determine without taking the car out to the track, putting some laps on it in a true racing environment, and evaluating all of its functions and operations.
For the cooling setup on BlownZ, we chose one of AFCO's premier doorslammer radiators (Part No. 80104N), which features an all-aluminum, tig-welded construction, and paired it with a single 8-inch fan. Because we were going to run a Meziere radiator-mount water pump rather than an engine-driven pump, we had to do some modifications. We began by replacing the large inlet at the top of the radiator with a pair of -16 AN bungs and fittings, one of which was drilled and welded on the side of the radiator. The crew at AFCO then assisted in modifying the water pump and bracket so that it could be mounted on the radiator. In lieu of the water pump mounted on the motor, we installed an adapter with four AN fittings — two of which fed to the inlet and the other two to the water pump.
This cooling setup peformed admirably, but if you've ever been to California, Nevada, or Arizona in the summer time, it's hot, and with some of the delays that are common at the track, like waiting for officials to check the track or for a car to clear the top end, we were running a little on the warm side. So we turned to our friends at AFCO, who set us up with a larger 10-inch fan and a shroud to bring those temperatures in check and allow us to run the car for a longer period of time without concern.
Elsewhere, another recent addition to the project is one of Moroso's LS Lifter Valley Plates. These plates, which cover the lifter valley's atop factor and aftermarket GM LS Series engines, replaces the OEM GM plate and lacks the two provisions for knock sensors that generally aren't used in racing applications, as open headers, slid lifter cams, and stiff suspensions can false trigger the sensors. Aside from the more streamlined functionality that's more appropriate for racing purposes, this plate is made of aluminum and simply looks great on our LSX powerplant.
September 20, 2012 – Dropping Weight With Five Star Bodies Windows
In our latest project update, we've highlighted the replacement of BlownZ's front windshield with an aftermarket, race-intended windshield from Five Star Bodies. Now, make no mistake, there's a lot of weight to be lost by swapping the heavy factory glass for plexiglass or polycarbonate windows, but beyond that, the added level of safety gained by eliminating the actual glass from a 180 mph race car is immeasurable.
Five Star Bodies manufactures windshields for the 1993-2002 Chevrolet Camaro and Pontiac Firebird using a "top secret" process that delivers incredible strength and durability, in thicknesses that include 1/8, 1/4, and 3/16-inch. Rear windows are offered in 1/8 and 3/16-inch.
With the OEM windshield removed and all of the sealer cleared away, the direct-fit windshield drops into place. From there, without over-tightening, we simply begin at the corners and work out way around the windshield installing the allen head screws. The result here? A lighter — and more importantly — a safer race car.
September 10, 2012 – BlownZ's Front Suspension
Getting a high-powered, heavy race car down the drag strip on a set of 275 Drag Radials using stock-style suspension is no easy task, but it's the task that we've accepted. In order to give ourselves the best ride possible and all of the tuning adjustments we need to dial the nose of the car in to the power and the race track, we've commissioned a new K-Member, Control Arms, and a Pinto Steering Rack for the front suspension department. In addition, we've also obtained a set of AFCO's double-adjustable front coilover shocks that will allow us to independently set our compression and rebound to tune for the race track.
Tying it all together is PA Racing's lightweight chromoly drop spindles that will allow us to drop the ride height two-inches and utilize a longer shock, but even moreso, drop sound 60 pounds off the car over the stock OEM spindles.
September 10, 2012 – Plumbing With Fragola Performance
When building and operating a race car, you really want the fluids to remain in the race car, because nothing good can come from errant oil, water, power steering fluids, and the like. In effect, hoses and fitting aren't something that you want to skimp on, and we haven't.
For BlownZ, we've called upon Fragola Performance to hook us up with their braided hoses, fittings, and fittings ends from their Series 3000 Race line of products for the fuel and cooling systems on our supercharged Camaro. The 3000 Race hoses can withstand pressures of 1500 psi with their two woven layers of stainless steel that's compatible with alcohol and any natural or synthetic-based lubricants from -40 to over 300 degrees.
September 5, 2012 – AEM's 4-Channel Wideband UEGO
One of the most recent additions and certainly one of the most useful tools on our BlownZ Camaro is our new dual 4-Channel Wideband UEGO controllers from our friends at AEM Electronics. This setup is state-of-the-art, with a single oxygen sensor for each hole rather than one sensor for each bank that averages the results.
By being able to monitor and control each cylinder separate of the other with our accompanying XFI 2.0 engine management system, this offers us unparalleled tuning insight.
From the get-go with our chassis dyno testing, we had to work to line out our tune-up, and we were able to take the data gathered from the sensor in each hole to pinpoint where the cylinders were blowing out and get ourselves on the right path as we headed to the track.
August 30, 2012 – The Jesel Valvetrain Setup In Our LSX 388 Mill
As one of the most extensive projects we've undertaken to date, a lot of components have played into the construction of BlownZ, with the assistance of a long list of partners in the industry. The folks at Jesel Valvetrain, along with COMP Cams and Trick Flow Specialties, were a part of our most recent tech piece centered around BlownZ, in which we take a look at the trick valvetrain setup that's been devised for the 388-inch powerplant.
August 21, 2012 – BlownZ's NMCA West Debut In Pomona
For months, our goal had been to complete BlownZ in time to debut it at the NMCA West Coast Shootout in Bakersfield. This was the first NMCA race of the year. We didn't make it. We reset our sight on the PSCA Fontana race, and Fontana got shut down. Just our luck. We quickly eyeballed Pomona – the legendary Pomona raceway that hadn't seen a fast street car in over 10 years – and although we only had a couple of test hits on the car to this point, we were off to smog city. Driver James Lawrence, Crew Chief Sean Goude, and Crew Member Dean Jigamian finished the last minute thrash and loaded up the trailer.
We arrived at the Auto Club Raceway still in test mode, but with every intention of making a showing, and we'd like to think we did just that. We competed in the NMCA West 275 class, which features mid 7 second runs, and some very competitive racers including the Young Brothers (Jeff and Kevin). The Young's consistently run in the 7.50s and 7.60s with ProCharger F2 small block Chevys.
Our goal for the weekend was to get some seat time in the car and learn the chassis and setup, and work on the tuneup. High 8s would be fine, we weren't trying to really win – but we wanted that sweet nectar called progress. During Friday's first test and tune session, we were going to start out with a 1/8 mile hit to get a baseline. Buckled into the car, it was hot, hot, hot – almost 100 degrees. We left our setup the same from Barona, a very conservative timing and air fuel ratio, and almost 5 degrees of timing pulled out at launch. After a spirited burnout, we pulled to the line and put BlownZ on the trans brake. We dialed in 3,800 rpm for the launch, and the ProCharger F1R was just started to get work done with 6 psi when we let go off the button. A 1.38 60′ foot was promising, but the car began to the pull to the right soon after launch. Our driver pedaled the car at 300′ before getting back into it, and lifted right around 500′ well before the 1/8 mile mark. We carded a 5.90 at 121 mph in the 1/8, and a 9.57 at only 117 mph in the quarter mile.
For the first round of qualifying, we made some tweaks, but ran into a similar challenge. The car drifted right. We lifted and ran 9.56. BlownZ was practically a bracket car, but not for the right reasons. For a long time, we have been battling an issue with fouled spark plugs. They reared their head again in the second round of qualifying, and the car shut off on the line. We were unable to test our sway bar adjustments. Without a third round of qualifying, that left us with one-shot, one-kill for the first round of eliminations. Good thing we were lining up with the class champion.
BlownZ qualified No. 4 in the five-car field at 5.86 at 117 mph, and although we dropped out first round match with eventual 275 Drag Radial winner Kevin Young, we did card a much-improved 5.62 at 128 mph, with a 1.36 short time and our first full 1/8-mile pass with the car. This run would equate to a 8.70 at around a buck-sixty in the quarter. We're getting there. This was still on a very conservative setup – think less than 18 degrees of timing and 10.8:1 air/fuel ratio. We're going to work on fixing a few things, and will get BlownZ back to the track soon in pursuit of the 7-second zone soon.

June 20, 2012 – Finishing Little Pieces
In this installment we wire up BlownZ's XFI engine management system and ignition, cut our light weight windows, and fire up the ProCharged 388 LSX for some base line dyno tuning. When it came time to tune BlownZ, we went to one of the best in the business. Brian Macy from Horsepower Connection. Brian is one of the most talented XFI tuners in the country and he also is the lead XFI instruction for FAST XFI for EFI University. We have a full story coming soon on the dyno results and our tribulations on BlownZ. While we aren't telling you the full story yet, rest assured it's an interesting one!
We highly recommend Macy and Horsepower Connection for XFI tuning. If you need help with XFI, or need to purchase a full system, con sider him and their team. Brian can be reached at email@example.com.

Cycling in Melbourne Australia
Not sure if any one else had encountered this problem but this is the second time something like this has happened to me. I mount my bikes on a bike rack which fits to the towball, whilst driving on the highway in SA last week i heard a loud bang and sure enough when i inspected the bikes one of the tyres had exploded. I'm not just talking about the tube but the tyre actually shredded, even had to replace the rim tape. Not what i wanted the day before riding in the Bupa challenge at the tour down under.
The time it happened before was also similar circumstances. Has this ever happened to any one?? i figured i'd put it down to traveling at high speed in hot temperature and a random stone popping up and hitting the tyre, causing it to explode. Any suggestions?
I had a run of this happening. Never on a car, once inside my office though... scared the crap out of all of us!
Also it once happened while I was riding and blew the tyre off the rim!
What was happening in my case was the rim tape had slipped and exposed the hole in the rim that the spoke goes through. So as the wheel heated up and things expanded, the metal of the rim rubbed on the tube and popped it.
So, replacing the rim tape sorted things out for me. I see you've already done that, have you had it happen again since replacing the tape ? You'll also want to make sure the tape is on nice and tightly and the rim surface is clean before doing it so it won't move around and happen again.
I wouldn't have thought that a stone flicking up would cause it though.
Silly question but is the exhaust pipe on on the blown tyre side. Or maybe the heat from the engine could be the culprit. Just a thought.
It looks like you're right on the money there Jack. I've just done some google -ing and yeah, seems to be that the exhaust pipe can really heat up and melt the tyre. I don't know what to do, certainly don't want this to happen again. So i guess i'll just have to travel with the bikes on the racks with out their tyres??? major pain in the a*s.
Simple case of high pressure tyre exposed to the sun - I've stood near triathlon bike parking areas on several occasions and heard multiple tyre explosions when the sun came up. People inflate them to the maximum pressure when cool, then when the sun hits the black tyre they heat, the pressure goes up and bang! I've had it happen to a tyre in the back of a car too. Try inflating them just a little less, even 5-10 psi will make a difference; the high pressure and subsequent increase in pressure will find any fault in the tube/tyre. Alternatively, inflate just before you start the ride & the air on them will keep them cooler; If you think it is the exhaust, then change your rack, but I've heard this plenty of times off the rack.
Good luck.
Yes heat of any kind can do this, and for that reason it is always best, if you're leaving your bike inside a car during summer, as I do, to drop the tyre pressures a little. It doesn't take much to pump them up again. But in a hot car, where I believe temperatures can reach 60 degrees, you're running risks if you leave your bike in there with fully inflated tyres.
I have wondered about something else. I did the Alpine Challenge last week with full tyre pressure, 120lb. it never occurred to me till later but temperatures on the day, gong up Buffalo, exceeded 40 degrees, and the bitumen was melting on the road. The heat from both the day and the bitumen must have put the tyre pressure through the roof. I'm surprised I didn't see more blowouts on the day.
Yep, it could let go, but you are constantly pushing the bead back into the rim as the wheel rotates, so it would have to be pretty bad; of course, the consequences would be pretty bad too!
As well as boosting the pressure in the tyre, the relative pressure would increase too as the outside pressure drops with altitude. Scary thought.

okay first off just so you know I'm saint .357. it seams my account was hacked and or deleted and while i work on getting it back I'm using this account. now that's out of the way I'm thinking if doing a new series of testing everyday objects and professional weapons for zombie uses. which means i need an analogue for the human skull and spine. in the past I've used coconuts for this, but the jury's still out on the comparison to the human head. and since i cant afford one of the deluxe ballistic models like they use on deadliest warrior (even though i do know where to get them). i was thinking of a pigs head. now Ive spent all day looking up human skull analogs and i have come up with nothing (damn you Google). so pigs head is the best i can do. now even though i know a pigs skull is harder then a humans i figure that's all the better. but the problem arises where do i get a pigs head. true butcher shops are becoming harder and harder to find, so i posse you this question. do you think i will be able to get a pigs head from the meat department at pathmark? my gut tells me no but i just though i would ask before i walk over there tomorrow. also if anyone on here has a better analogue, maybe one of you know what kind of fake skull they use for those ballistic dummy's, again Ive searched and found nothing on my own. i now put it in your hands lost zombies. if you want to see truly accurate weapons testing then post your knowledge and opinions in the comments. and as a bonus what do you think i should call this new show?
yeah i know i got the idea form them and that's not really the thickness of human skull, that's why they moved on to those ballistic busts there now using. which maybe one day if mine catches on ill get them too. while i like zombie go boom i think its a little to much for fun. i want to do a more serious take on the whole thing. and i may have a source on pigs heads. the path mark 4 blocks form my house may be able to order me a case of pigs heads. that's six heads at six dollars a piece. not bad at all. i have to go back on Wednesday to see if they can do it. in the mean time I'm going to keep looking for other butcher shops that have them already in stock. my dad was a chef for many years so maybe he can give me some leads when he gets home.
now on a side note i need a name for my show and i was think either "Zombie hunter's" or "zed hunters" tell me what you like better and any ideas you may have for names. give me a good one and not only will i give you a credit but a shout out in the first episode.
together lost zombies we can give zombie go boom a run for its money, who's with me!!!!
well i got back a reply form the ballistic torso people and unless this thing catches on in a big way I'm not going to use them. they want 750 dollars for the one zombie go boom uses. 500 hundred for bust with just a skull and no neck. so unless someone wants to sponsor me any one, sponsorship?
Woah 750 bucks thats ridiculous! Guess you were probaly better off with the pigs heads then. But still is there any way you can just make one of those things?
the ballistics gel is no problem its the skull that i cant do anything about. i have yet to find any analog with the same property's. the internet has been very useless here.
No, I doubt you'll get a pigs head from anywhere. All parts of swine are used these days. even the scraps that fall on the floor. Swine refuse is packaged and sent to China for use there.
I think your closest shot at somethign cose to a human skull would be to wrap a melon in about a 1/2 inch of BONDO and cover it with fiberglass. You can get both at the car repair section at wal mart. You'll be mixing Bondo and fiberglass resin so get yourself a mask. You gould probably cover it with some liquid rubber available in the craft section.
i don't think that's true as long as i buy it. sure i can't get it for free but Pathmark seams promising if i order a case of them. also I've seen whole pigs in Spanish butcher shops before. and people do still use pig heads for things like head cheese soup so i think my odds are good. the only problem is i don't have a car so i gotta find one either with in walking distance or try to take a severed pigs head on the bus. thanks for the idea though.
I don't know if they even slaughter the pig at Pathmark. There is a pig farm a few miles from me. They never really have pigs get big enough to have a skull the size of a human before they ship them out. They are sent to a "fattening" farm and then on to a slaughterhouse.
Have you checked on the thickness of a pig skull? I think they might be thicker then a human skull by a lot.
they use to butcher whole pigs there but not anymore. again i asked the butcher and he said it might be possible to get a case of pig heads if they special order it for me. i have to go back on Wednesday to find out. and yes a pig skull is thicker then a humans but not by that much and its better because if something goes through a pigs skull then it will certainly go through a human skull. i don't want something that can just barely make it through. i want something that i know will go through every-time. so if it doesn't get passed the pig then it doesn't get the "Redead the Undead" seal of approval. I'm thinking of using that for a tittle. what do you think "Redead the Undead" where our motto is "because the dead won't stay dead on their own!"
Good Title.
thanks it just came to me. "welcome to the first episode of redead the undead where we put everyday objects and harden weapons to the test to answer the only question that maters. will it kill a zombie?! today we check out a favorite of recorpseafiers everywhere, the spiked war club.!"
