If you like to do a little trail riding at dusk, dirt bike lights can keep you at your best long after others have packed up and headed home. Rocky Mountain ATV/MC carries an extensive selection of dirt bike lights, including headlights, tail lights and blinkers. They come in a variety of sizes and styles, and some even include LED lights.
Lighting kits are important, especially if you are trying to make an off-road dirt bike street legal. Your motorcycle must be equipped with a headlight, a tail light and turn signals before you can hit the pavement. But even if you're sticking solely off-road, a good head light can keep you on the trail well after the sun has gone down. And if you want to improve your lighting even further with a tail light, brake light and blinkers, a full enduro light kit can do wonders for your twilight fun.
Rocky Mountain ATV/MC carries all the leading brands in dirt bike lighting: Trail Tech, Baja Designs, Acerbis, Tusk, Polisport and more. We also have lighting accessories, so if you need a dirt bike stator or voltage regulator, you can find it here. When you need dirt bike lights and turn signals, Rocky Mountain ATV/MC is your one-stop shop!

5 hours into ta 10 hour race my bike died like it was out of gas. After pushing back to the pits and losing about a hour. We found that the battery was so hot you could fry a egg. We had not been running the lights over a hour at this point so there was no load on it. We checked the voltage charging the battery and it was 14v. I called TT and they said it was a bad battery. Then they tell me you do not even need it to run the lights. Just use all your stock stuff and get only the stator. ($130) not $280. I wish they but you can not buy just that stator from here. You have to call TT.Read All Reviews

I thought these were going to be the answer to my problems. I needed something that was bright with low current draw. So I picked up a set of these. They worked great for a month or two. Then one bulb burned out and then another. I call Warn and told them they were burning out and they sent be a new bulb for free. Then after more use I had another bulb burn out. Called again and they sent me two replacements. I am thinking there is some sort of problem if they are so quick to send out free replacements. Then when installing the new bulbs I noticed a fine silver powder in the light housing. The ballast and not secured down and rattle around and were pretty much falling apart. So I had to use some RTV to secure the ballast in place. As of right now I have one headlight working and one not. For the amount of money spent I would suggest getting LEDs. Which seem to be almost bullet proof.Read All Reviews

Here I guess I wasn't clear in my question. It seems that normally instead of
"PASSED" you get "OK." So I assume that something must be wrong if you get
less than OK. I was assuming that maybe there was some sort of file system
corruption that led to the PASSED (which is between FAILED and OK), and was
thinking that if the partition was reformatted, then the "problem" (Mark Kim
does not see a problem.) might go away. (The two partitions involved will be
reformatted in October when I replace this Mandrake system with SuSE.)
Thank you.

My wife and I have stayed with Liz and Jody for our annual December vacation for the past 6 (soon to be 7) years. We've stayed in most of the rooms and each one has been wonderfully unique. Breakfast is always fresh and delicious. The location is perfect for walking anywhere in Old Town Key West. I've recommended the Popular House to several friends over the years and know they'll be treated as though they are home.

We stayed August 2013. First time in Key West and couldn't of picked a better locati!on! The house was a perfect example of Old Town Key West. So comfortable and welcoming. Room was quaint and bathroom was very clean. Breakfast was just wonderful. Liz and Rob were amazing hosts. So helpful with planning our visit and giving suggestions and making arrangements. We will definitely go back!

We stayed there for our anniversary last May. We stayed in the "king room" which is featured in the photos. It was beautiful, and even though it was next to reception, it was quiet. The staff were super nice, helpful, and just good people. It's location can't be beat and I recommend it to everyone! Thanks for a wonderful time!

The Popular house is my home away from home. This is the only place I stay when I'm in the keys. Jody and Liz are like family to me. I can't say enough about them, the staff and the service. Once you stay there, you will be spoiled!

This was one of the nicest B & B's I have ever been to. The staff were courteous and helpful, the bedroom and bathroom were as clean as a whistle, and the unexpected amenities (jacuzzi, hammock, landscaping, and artfully designed interior) were a delight to the weary traveler. I highly recommend Key West Bed and Breakfast!!

We spent three nights (Friday - Sunday) in this lovely B&B during the first weekend in December 2009. Although the holiday parade was Saturday night, our place still enjoyed the quiet of a peaceful neighborhood. We used the outdoor Jacuzzi one night and enjoyed the strong jets and hot water. We also spent a lot of time on our private balcony which overlooked the garden patio. The staff was amazing in meeting our every desire (except early morning coffee). We felt one drawback was that breakfast was served at 8:30am which was late for us early morning risers. However, the breakfast was well worth the wait with tropical fruit and freshly baked special of the day. We would have also liked more space to unpack clothes (room #4) since there was a three day minimum stay. We asked the owner, Jody, to install some hooks so we could hang up some additional clothes, and she was prompt to respond that she'd do it the next day. We would highly recommend this wonderful getaway home!

My wife and I just got home from a three night stay at the Popular House. We've stayed at numerous other B&Bs, but this one rivals them all. We absolutely loved the amenities, hospitality, value, location, and cleanliness to name a few. We will definitely be back. Thanks Jody! -Nathan & Melissa

Mt. Airy "Bring It Beck!" Rally Sept. 5, 2011
'Bring it Beck' jobs rally planned
Example of Beck's charity clothing line.
Efforts encouraging Glenn Beck to locate a manufacturing operation in Mount Airy continue to gain momentum, including plans for a "Bring It Beck" jobs rally here on Labor Day.
"It will show the unity of the community in coming together for a ommon cause," the event's organizer, Velvet Shelton, explained Tuesday.
The jobs rally is scheduled to begin at 6 p.m. on Sept. 5, featuring speakers, special music and other attractions. It will be held at the corner of
Independence Boulevard and Willow Street.
Shelton said she got the idea for the event after reading about a local
effort to persuade Beck, an outspoken television and radio host, to establish a plant here to manufacture a 1791 clothing line he envisions.
"To be honest with you, it actually did come about from reading the initial
article in The Mount Airy News," said Shelton, who is being assisted in
the effort by other citizens as well as businesses.
That report focused on a campaign encouraging local citizens to write Beck
and urge him to select Mount Airy for his manufacturing venture that would offer people jobs to "restart America," according to a July announcement by Beck.
But one part of the article in particular made an impression on Shelton as
well as Beck, which concerned an initial stance by the city board of
commissioners to not support the campaign publicly. "I felt politics played a
role in that," Shelton said of the apparent reluctance among some local
officials to ally themselves with the ultra-conservative Beck.
Shelton, who frequently attends city and county commissioner meetings and describes herself as a concerned citizen "who just loves the community," said she was motivated to respond. That led to plans for the upcoming rally. "I wanted to make lemonade out of what seemed to be lemons," she said.
"It's really to show him (Beck) what he would be missing out on by not giving us an opportunity … to show him what hardworking citizens will do for him in this town," the rally organizer continued. "We just need jobs in our
A video will be made of the rally and edited into a documentary-type
production that will be sent to Beck, who interviewed Mount Airy Mayor Deborah Cochran on his nationally syndicated radio show after the first newspaper article surfaced.
Shelton also believes something is needed — "just anything at this point" —
to energize citizens and hopefully generate jobs, rather than simply doing
nothing to aid those devastated by textile industry layoffs. "I just feel this
is a great opportunity to help them out," she said of the Beck campaign.
The scheduling of the Bring It Beck event on the holiday was not by accident. "What better day to have a jobs rally than on Labor Day?" Shelton said.
Officials To Speak
"There will be a stage set up," Shelton said of the layout for the rally,
with plans also calling for some type of banner to displayed on the structure
which will highlight the spirit of the event.
Among the speakers will be Mayor Cochran, who will read a belated resolution the city commissioners approved last Thursday in support of Beck's 1791 venture. That number refers to the year the U.S. Bill of Rights was adopted.
"It is an opportunity for the city to be seen and heard and let others know
what we're going through," Cochran said Tuesday of the rally. "There's strength in numbers."
Paul Johnson, the chairman of the Surry County Board of Commissioners, also will offer his observations about twice being displaced from the local textile industry as a result of plant shutdowns. Similar remarks will come from local businessman Greg Perkins.
"I hope to secure three other speakers," Shelton said, and Cochran pointed
out that any city commissioner who wants to will have a chance to address the crowd.
Special music is to be provided by Rachel Johnson, who is originally from
Mount Airy and now lives in Nashville. "She will be flying in and performing at our event," the organizer said.
T-shirts bearing a "Bring It Beck" logo — recently produced to show the
community's support for the 1791 project — will be offered during the rally for $10. Proceeds from shirt sales are going to the United Fund of Surry County, which will be represented at the gathering for a check presentation.
Food also will be sold at the rally, which is expected to last about two
"I just really want to encourage the community to please come out," Shelton
This is an opportunity to help our neighbors.
Downtown Mt. Airy
Mt. Airy has been devastated by the loss of businesses and manufacturing. This town, the inspiration for the fictional town of "Mayberry" on the old Andy Griffith TV Show, is hurting, and hurting badly.
The courageous mayor of Mt. Airy made a pitch for Glenn Beck to locate his new charity's clothing manufacturing site in the town, which has a long history of textile manufacturing with lots of experienced labor ready and able to do the work. And there are closed-down facilities which could begin production again if Beck's company elects to locate his manufacturing facility there.
Yes, the Mt. Airy Town Council, loaded with ideological Democrats initially voted to keep Glen Beck out. And Beck, responded that he would not go where he was not wanted, and would not fight against local government to run his charity company. Eventually, the Town Council relented and admitted that they had put their ideology above the best interests of the town, but the damage had been done.
Now the town, led by its Mayor and supported by a number of Tea Party organizations from across the state is rallying to help the town's residents to help themselves. We encourage Moore Tea Citizens members to rally to Mr. Airy on Monday, September 5, in support of this great cause. This is a wonderful opportunity to help our neighbors, to change hearts, and to change minds. Please go if you can!
Date: Monday, Sept. 5, 2011 ― Labor
Day Holiday
Time: 6:00 P.M. ― 8:00 P.M.
Where: Vacant Parking Lot on the
corner of Independence Blvd.

This is not an organized event for Moore Tea Citizens. Individual members are urged to support the event if their schedule, finances, and family permits travel to Mt. Airy. There will be no organized caravan, MTC booth, or MTC activities at the event. Other Tea Parties are supporting the event in this same way.
Mt. Airy is located approximately 134 miles and is a drive of approximately 2½ hours from the Southern Pines/Pinehurst area. Please drive safely. And, if you go, please bring us photos and a report on your experience there!

Gender feminism sends me to south america
1 Attachment(s)
Ive had some amazing experiences over the last couple of years. It all started when I lost my job in the beginning of 2010. A woman claimed I had said and done something, and before I knew it I was fired. It didnt matter that what she had claimed was easily proved to be a fabrication of her imagination. It only mattered that she had said it had happened. We are so societally conditioned by the gender feminist movement to believe that men are guilty of whatever a woman claims, that the truth doesnt matter anymore. Men are guilty until proven innocent. It has been an incredible education. Even more disheartening, is seeing some people who I thought were my friends drop our friendship like a hot potato. I guess when the poo hits the fan you find out who your true friends are. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
Anyway, enough of my soap box rant. I found myself unemployed with lots of time available. So, what to do? I decided its time to work on the bucket list. In the summer of 2010, I rode 7000 miles across Europe. Since then, Ive continued working on my goal of seeing 100+ national parks and monuments. I am currently on #86. Starting December 1, 2011, Im going to ride a KLR650 through Mexico, central america, and south america to the end of the road in Ushuaia, Argentina. Next summer, Ill ride to the end of the road north to Prudhoe, Alaska. Ill also take my daughter on a long motorcycle trip next summer. We are going to go see the tallest, largest and oldest trees in the world. They all happen to be in California. Then, Ill be out of money, and desperately seeking to rejoin the workforce. <o:p></o:p>
The best thing that has happened in this time off is being able to spend quality time with my daughters. When Im not travelling, I have been doing something with them. I got to volunteer almost every week in my youngest daughters class last year. How many divorced dads can say that? The bond with my daughters, especially my youngest daughter, has been strengthened by the time I have been able to spend with them. i don't think i would have the time otherwise while working full time. For this alone, the forced time away from work has been worth it. <o:p></o:p>
i have also had time to spend with family and close friends strengthening our bonds. I've also had the opportunity to work through the remaining issues that I was still carrying around post-divorce. Altogether, it's been an incredibly positive life changing experience.<o:p></o:p>
So, off to South America I go. I am as prepared as Ill ever be for this adventure. I know enough Spanish to ask where the bathroom or the doctor is. For bike prep, I put a fuel filter on the KLR, mounted some old Givi bags (thank you Dave!) and a Rubbermaid top box, and changed the oil. Ill fix whatever pops up with a combination of JB weld, zip ties, gorilla tape and luck along the way. i also learned how to change my own tires...what a pain in the *ss that was. I hope i don't have to do that again!!<o:p></o:p>

Welcome to Adv. Have a safe journey and post lots of pictures!
I'm in :clap
Sorry to hear about the false claims, but you sure look like you've made the best of it with your rides!
subscribed! sorry about the job loss and gender bs. Stay strong man!
When my daughter went to an Ivy undergraduate, the official line was if a woman felt she'd been sexually harassed, she had been. No guidelines, etc. Can you get any more subjective than that? For real, that was the official line. She said it, and the male was gone.
Hope you have a great trip.
Good Luck
Good Luck I am happy to catch a good RR while it is just starting.
PS. It is so scary the laws back in The States. When they explained the laws to me in health class I just about decided to never talk to a girl again hot or not!
I try in tough situations to be a silver lining kind of person, It's sounds like you've found the silver lining.
Good luck on the trip of a lifetime, It's good you did something instead of being depressed,and angry.
Ride safe It's a report I'll watch.
Ride smart.
Your RR....
Looking forward to following your travels. Have fun!
I'm in
I envy you already. Waaaa, waaaaa, waaaaaaaa, or what ever sound a klr makes when it heads south. Ride safe.
Back to the main story, kramnamhoh bring it on. Winter is coming and I'm ready for some vicarious travel! :thumb

Its first home was a disused cow byre which the group cleaned out and ran as the St. Andrews Play Club, giving performances to audiences who sat on cushions on the floor. Within a couple of years, the Byre Theatre had established a considerable reputation running a programme of performances which attracted audiences the theatre was barely able to hold.
In 1969, the original building was demolished to make way for a new housing development, and in 1970 the second building was opened. At a cost of £40,000, funded by a public appeal and the local authority, it was modeled on the Mermaid Theatre in London. The facilities were modest, for both public and staff, but it was thought to be rather grand compared to its predecessor.
A. B. Paterson's last ambition was yet again to modernise and refurbish the Byre Theatre to meet current expectations and requirements, in particular to address the inadequate facilities for those with special access needs, including visual or audio impairment.
At the time of his death in 1989, a proposal for expansion of the theatre's facilities had been initiated.
Today's Byre Theatre was built by award winning architects Nicoll Russell Studios of Broughty Ferry. The theatre grew from A.B. Paterson's aspirations for a truly modern theatre addressing the needs of the entire community.
The current building was opened in 2001 by Sean Connery. Its main auditorium is named A.B. Paterson, after the Byre founder. There is also a second 80-seat performance space named after the late golf photographer, Lawrence Levy.
Since a cut in funding in 2006, the Byre has had to abandon producing its own plays, and now provides a venue for visiting productions and community activities.

Superkarts! USA SuperNationals XVII Priority Pre-Entry Program Announced
Without a doubt, the Superkarts! USA SuperNationals in Las Vegas is the biggest sprint karting event in the world. This coming November, with the exciting addition of the Rotax Junior and DD2 categories, race attendance is expected to top the 575-driver mark.
With each class size restricted to a pre-set maximum of either 40 or 80 spots, simply gaining entry into the event will be a competitors first victory. SKUSA is once again taking steps to ensure that its core customers will get the first chance to enter through their Priority Pre-Entry Program. Drivers who run in all of their ProKart Challenge races up to July 1, or who raced in the Pro Tours SpringNationals and are pre-entered in the SummerNationals by July 1, will be provided with special access to enter ahead of the official opening of SuperNationals registration on August 1.
Weve designed our SuperNationals Priority Pre-Entry process to be very straight-forward, but were still going to do our best to detail the procedure for our drivers so that theyll be able to successfully take advantage of it, offered Tom Kutscher, Superkart! USA President. There are simple steps for our racers to take to make sure that theyll be part of this years SuperNationals, because when we open registration to the public on August 1st, were expecting a flood of entries. Its going to be a huge event this year especially with the addition of the Rotax classes to commemorate the running of the Rotax Grand Finals in America AND the free transfer spots for the winners to the 2014 Rotax Grand Finals. Needless to say, all available spots are going to go quickly.
The initial step of the Pre-Entry Program is qualification, which is based solely on regional or national participation in Superkarts! USA events in the eight SKUSA core classes. The goal of this effort is to provide SKUSAs core customer base with the first opportunity to ensure their attendance in the sports biggest events. With the cutoff date set for July 1, the SKUSA Pro Tour is the first opportunity for qualification into the Pre-Entry Program. All drivers who competed in the SpringNationals in Tucson and have pre-entered into the SummerNationals by July 1 will be included in the Pre-Entry program. On the ProKart Challenge regional level, participation in all of the available PKC races up to July 1 will also qualify a racer into the program.
The following lists detail the Pro Tour or PKC races that need to be completed for a driver to become eligible for the Priority Pre-Entry Program:

Once qualified, SKUSA racers must visit
to fill out a custom form to register for pre-entry eligibility (between July 1 and July 8). Once SKUSA receives this form and confirms eligibility, they will prepare and send the competitor an e-mail (between July 8 and July 15) that will include the special instructions on how to enter the race. Drivers who are eligible for the Priority Pre-Entry program will be given the exclusive registration window from July 15 to July 28 to secure their entry with payment for the SuperNationals. This Priority Pre-Entry window closes on July 28, and then the official SuperNationals online registration will open to the public on August 1 at 12:01a.m. (PDT). The SKUSA office staff will utilize the three days in between to properly prepare the inventory in the online store.
In addition to our North American racers, we always have a great deal of interest from international competitors, and to ensure that they have enough time to arrange travel documents, we will open SuperNationals registration to the public on August 1, confirmed Kutscher. It is my hope that our SKUSA racers will take full advantage of this special Priority Pre-Entry program so that theyll be able to be a part of the festivities in Vegas this fall.
Once again, heres the three-step plan for SKUSA racers to follow to make sure theyll be part of this years SuperNationals:
1. Participate in all available events To be eligible, drivers must either (a) race in all of their regional ProKart Challenge events up until July 1, or (b) have raced in the SpringNationals and be pre-entered in the SummerNationals by July 1.
2. Register online for Pre-Entry Eligibility Drivers who have made themselves eligible by running in the required events must then visit
to register for the Priority Pre-Entry Program. It is this communication that will put racers on the list to receive the next part of the Pre-Entry Process.
3. Use One-Time Link Entry Form to Enter Event Racers who have submitted their eligibility form on the SKUSA website, and who have had their event participation confirmed, will receive a custom email with their own dedicated instructions for entering the event through a one-time use entry form link. They must simply follow these instructions between July 15 and July 28 to be officially entered in the race before registration is opened to the public on August 1.
SKUSA has already begun planning for this years SuperNationals, which will again take place at the Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino on November 20-24, 2013. All 11 eleven classes which will include the eight SKUSA core classes, the two Rotax classes, and KZ2 should be close to sell-outs this season as the SKUSA program continues to strengthen, thanks to the growth and stability of the ProKart Challenge regional platform and record numbers on the Pro Tour.

What is "The Gluten Truth?"
- By Kenneth Fine, MD

Kenneth Fine, MD
Kenneth Fine MD is an academic gastroenterologist internationally renowned for his nutritional research, scientific publications, patient care expertise, teaching, and clinical laboratories for 25 years. He is the founder and current director of the EnteroLab.com laboratory and the non-profit Intestinal Health Institute in Dallas, TX where he has furthered his ground-breaking research and offers diagnostic laboratory tests for intestinal disorders, and gluten and other food sensitivities.
Read About Our New Fall Weekend Conference Entitled "The Gluten Truth meets the Circle of Life" at http://GlutenTruth.org.
Because the constant of my academic medical profession has been that as an educator, and the main Mission of the Intestinal Health Institute is one of public health education, we are holding a weekend health conference in Dallas, Texas on November 3-6, 2011 at the Westin Galleria. This conference is called "The Gluten Truth meets The Circle of Life: A Tale of Two Hemispheres" (see http://GlutenTruth.org for full conference itinerary, a brochure, and registration instructions). This conference will help explain how and why most people affected by gluten today do not have celiac disease, what we can do about these health ailments, and how to optimize a gluten-free diet and our overall health pursuits for optimal health outcomes. The price to attend this 3.5-day conference is an astoundingly low $269 which covers all lectures, entertainment events and gluten-free conference meals. We are also offering a buddy special: bring one or more people with you to the conference and you both/all save 10% on conference admission.
The conference will feature a keynote address by my former mentor and world famous gastrointestinal researcher Dr. John Fordtran, whose original discovery of microscopic colitis (which affects 5% of celiacs), and whose assignment to me in 1989 to follow a path of research on that disease, eventually led to my discovery in 1999 of non-celiac gluten sensitivity as an important cause of multifaceted illness, as well as how to diagnose it using stool testing. Dr. Fordtran and I, in back-to-back lectures, will re-trace this interesting chronological path – beginning with a historical account by Dr. Fordtran of the events leading up to and following his original discovery and description of microscopic colitis in 1979, and ending with the account of my research discovering how celiac disease and microscopic colitis were inter-related, which, in turn, unlocked the mechanism of how gluten induces illness in so many non-celiac patients/people.
The conference will also feature an unprecedented historic account of how, in 1950, Willem Karel Dicke, MD, PhD, a Dutch Pediatrician, discovered how gluten was the cause of celiac disease; this account at our conference will be given by none other than his son Dr. Karel Dicke, a distinguished physician in the Dallas metroplex. Furthermore, Dr. Willem Dicke's celiac researching successors from The Netherlands, Drs. Chris Mulder and Gerd Bouma will be speaking and enlightening us with their extensive experience with celiac disease, non-celiac gluten sensitivity, microscopic colitis, refractory sprue, and preservation of Dr. Dicke's legacy in Holland. We are also pleased to have Alice Bast, the founder and Director of the National Foundation for Celiac Awareness present her experience on how her celiac disease turned into a life of award-winning public service, a presentation that will serve to ignite your own passion and purpose… not only for your own health, but for the health of society at large. And finally, an incredible person and practitioner, Dr. Gary Berman will enlighten you with a unique account of how you can learn to tap into your own intuition and higher self to pave the way for a more successful, healthful life.
I will also be giving lectures relating to the namesake of the conference: "The Gluten Truth" and "The Circle of Life", and our Nurse-Clinical Manager, Phyllis Zermeno, BSN, and the head of our Research and Development Laboratory, Dr. Frederick Ogunji (both officers in our nonprofit organization) will be relating their unique experiences in their important roles in the organizations, as well as hosting a Health Professionals Open-Mic, exposing you to additional unique professional health experience by the health professionals in attendance.
In addition to this fantastic educational line-up, and a completely gluten-free healthful menu (with additional catering to other food sensitivity and Kosher-food needs), the conference will also feature some creative entertainment opportunities for both you and I. There will be a talent show on Friday November 4th, when you will have the opportunity to have the Mic and Stage for a few precious minutes to show case your talent, followed on Saturday night by a banquet dinner, CD-Release Party, and Live Concert featuring me and my All-Star Rock n' Blues band, The Tennessee Texans. The title and theme of the show is "Rock n' Blues for Goodness' Sake." My new CD release, "Memphis Rising", representing my 7th CD release, was recorded in Memphis, TN (the birthplace of Rock and Roll and home of the Blues) with an all-Memphis musician studio line-up. My musical pursuits not only provide entertainment for the conference, but more generally, help me to be the creative, service-oriented, spiritual, and well rounded health professional I have come to be… and happier, and healthier as well. Being happier and healthier personally stimulates me to lead you to a life of the same, because the best part of Goodness is to share it and give it away! You will hear this and more in my songs at the concert, and at my lecture presentations at the conference. Please go to http://GlutenTruth.org for the full story.
On a final note, I would like to congratulate the expert staff at Celiac.com for their understanding of The Gluten Truth, i.e., that there is more to gluten-related illness than the just the 1% of gluten-sensitive individuals affected by celiac disease. Scott Adams and this website, having served the gluten-sensitive community since 1995, deserve a standing ovation. You may stand and clap now! Thank you.

Thank you for this important info, by Dallas, TX gastroenterologist Dr. Kenneth Fine, MD. Dr. Fine, himself, is sensitive to gluten (non-Celiac type of gluten sensitivity), and to other food proteins.
My husband came out positive on Dr. Fine's ("Enterolab") non invasive stool sample testing, and is healthier (no colds, etc.) since he stopped eating gluten, years ago. My husband is one of the many who have non-Celiac gluten sensitivity.
The analogy is an iceberg, where the smaller, but visible part of the iceberg represents celiac disease people, while the larger, invisible part of the iceberg (under water, so not normally visible) is the big population of non-celiac gluten sensitive people!
A 3 month trial of going gluten-free, helps to show whether or not a person has a problem with gluten, for a person who, because of a defect in his/her immune system (IgA antibody--to gluten-- deficiency of production of the IgA antibodies by the large intestine) don't show his/her gluten-sensitivity problem, even in Dr. Fine's sensitive non-invasive stool sample testing).
I believe a simple blood test can tell whether a person has IgA deficiency or not.

The Corporate Whistleblower Center is always eager to talk to employees at nuclear power plants, or employees of environmental clean up companies involved in clean up of nuclear sites if they possess well documented proof of fraud, and/or wrong doing, because the whistleblower rewards can be very lucrative. http://CorporateWhistleblowerCenter.Com
The Corporate Whistleblower Center says, "Because the federal tax dollars involved in nuclear power plants, and or environmental clean up related to former nuclear power plants can be so enormous there can be an amazing opportunity for a whistleblower to cash in. Most importantly, the whistleblower must possess well documented proof of major overbilling, or basically any type of fraud. Sometimes the proof can be so easy to see we are flabbergasted more whistleblowers don't take advantage of the federal whistleblower reward programs. If you are one of these people and you would like to learn more about federal whistleblower reward programs, please call us anytime at 866-714-6466."
In a recent instance, according to a Justice Department press release this January, two companies allegedly made false statements to the NRC and Department of Energy about a component of the advanced nuclear Economic Simplified Boiling-Water Reactor (ESBWR) - otherwise known as the steam dryer. A steam dryer removes liquid water droplets from steam produced by the nuclear reaction that generates electricity in boiling-water type reactors. The NRC requires that applicants for nuclear reactor design certification, such as these companies, demonstrate that vibrations caused by the steam dryer will not result in damage to a nuclear plant. The government alleged that the companies involved concealed known flaws in its steam dryer analysis and falsely represented that it had properly analyzed the steam dryer in accordance with applicable standards, and allegedly had verified the accuracy of its modeling using reliable data. http://CorporateWhistleblowerCenter.Com
Simple rules for a whistleblower from the Corporate Whistleblower Center:
The Corporate Whistleblower Center wants to emphasize there are high quality whistleblowers in every state including California, New York, Florida, Texas, Massachusetts, Maryland, Virginia, Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Tennessee, North Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, Missouri, Michigan, Iowa, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada, Idaho, Oregon, Washington, and Alaska. Any type of insider, or employee, who possesses significant proof of their employer, or a government contractor fleecing the federal government is encouraged to contact to Corporate Whistleblower Center anytime at 866-714-6466, or they can contact the group via their web site at http://CorporateWhistleBlowerCenter.Com

'L&O's' new order
The times aren't really a-changin' that much in the world of Law & Order, but the faces sure are. All three shows in the franchise -- 'scuse me, brand -- have new cast members (SVU temporarily, while Mariska Hargitay is on maternity leave). All are female, and as of Tuesday they've all made their first appearances. First impressions:
On the mothership, Conviction refugee Milena Govich is playing the show's first on-the-street female detective, Nina Cassady. As a character, her lack of experience is more notable than her gender: There's always been a sense that the other homicide detectives, even younger ones like those played by Benjamin Bratt and Jesse L. Martin when he joined the show (a full seven years ago now), had paid their dues. Not so with Cassady, who's dismissively referred to as "Detective Beauty Queen" because she happened to be a client at a salon that was robbed and nailed the perps. We've never really seen a green detective on the show before, so that could make for an interesting wrinkle in the future.
L&O classic also has a new assistant D.A., Connie Rubirosa (Alana De La Garza, late of CSI: Miami). The premiere didn't give her a whole lot of screen time, but she appears to be in the Angie Harmon, "Yes, I'm gorgeous, but I'll put you on death row as soon as look at you" mold.
On SVU, Connie Nielsen is taking over for Hargitay for the next several weeks. Nielsen had but one scene Tuesday, but based on that, she's pretty much a female Stabler (Chris Meloni). here he and Benson have a yin-yang, tough-sensitive relationship, the next several episodes look to be full of bad cop-bad cop.
Another ex-Conviction star, Julianne Nicholson, is Logan's (Chris Noth) new partner on Criminal Intent. This was a piece of casting I couldn't quite see when I heard about it. I've always kinda liked Nicholson, but CI is often the darkest of the three shows, and given her past credits, I couldn't quite see her in that world.
I see it better after Tuesday's episode, and she and Noth convincingly brought off the awkwardness that's inherent in any new relationship. Her character, Megan Wheeler, isn't quite as steely as Kathryn Erbe's Eames on the Vincent D'Onofrio half of CI, but you get the idea that she's insightful and maybe has a background in psychology, which would be a useful counterpoint to Logan's old-school approach to detective work.
And what about you, you L&O obsessives out there? What are your impressions of the new folks?

Now that I've worked with people in almost every age group, socio economic group, gender, right brain, left brain, ethnicities, actors, teachers, professionals, students, (the list goes on), I have come to realize that regardless of where or who you are in life, you have stress. An abundance of it. Some people are more advanced in knowing how to manage it, and everyone seems to benefit from learning how to relax without having to rely on a bartender or a pack of cigarettes.
How is stress manifesting in your life? Are you constantly tense, overeating, under eating, fighting with your significant other, short tempered, rageful on the road, avoiding the gym, losing hair, always sick, unable to connect with people, depressed, or emotionally and physically drained, feeling like the cards are stacked against you? Whatever your answer is, you are totally normal. And you don't have to live this way.
We all have stress triggers and most likely you will have something throughout your life that is a catalyst for stress. The key point is learning how to deal with the cards that you are dealt. I don't care if it's a financial issue, a physical issue, a social issue, a parental issue, or a relationship issue, there is always a softer, more positive lens to view your given situation that can help you reduce the negative effects of stress. You can start exercising your choice of lenses, right now.
Regardless of whether your stress is moderate or severe, learning how to live better is the same process. It starts with creating space for yourself to hear your own inner wisdom; to allow your feelings to pass through without judgement; to create a mind body connection so that you can anchor into this moment and not worry about the future. If you haven't tried meditation, journaling, coaching, yoga, guided imagery, or breath work it may sound crazy that simple and inexpensive techniques can create such a shift. It's as if the dealer knew what cards you needed the whole time. The only prerequisite is that you have to be willing.
Getting yourself into a place of relaxation, even if just for a brief period of your day, gives way to possibility to either make logical changes in your life to change your stressful situation, or supports a new and positive mindset that can create a positive domino effect in your life.
If you are ready to make actionable change in your life, bring mindfulness to your stress, and find relief without needing to rely on anyone or anything, contact me for a free life & wellness coaching consultation. email@example.com

DX18 System with AR9020 by Spektrum
For more information or to order this product please visit the following link: http://www.horizonhobby.com/products/dx18-system-with-ar9020-SPM18000
To truly fly like a pro takes skill and the right tools. If you have the skill, the DX18 has the pro-class tools you need.
The Spektrum DX18 is a true milestone for RC pilots who operate models with a lot of functions or a lot of servos. It's the RC world's first hand-held transmitter with 18 fully-proportional channels. Until the DX18, the highest number of proportional channels in a hand-held transmitter was 16. And that's just the beginning.
The Most Advanced Spektrum AirWare Software Yet
The center-piece of the DX18 is its incredibly advanced Spektrum AirWare software. Based on the powerful DX10t software that's already proven itself in the field, it offers a wealth of programming options for airplanes, helicopters and gliders.
Some of the more notable features include:
• State-of-the-art glider software developed with the assistance of Sweden's national F3B glider team — 10 flight modes (the most of any transmitter), the ability to modify individual characteristics for every servo in a glider, 5 wing types, 3 tail types, 2 throttle setups and much more
• Servo balancing for all 18 channels using a sophisticated 7-point curve mix
• Built-in servo sequencer that lets users program a complex string of control events they can activate with the simple flick of a switch
• 16 programmable mixes that allow the user to mix all 18 channels
• Pre-programmed servo setups for nearly every type of wing, tail and swash plate imaginable
• Enough on-board memory for up to 50 models with the ability to store settings in excess of 2000 more on the included SD card (limited only by the memory of the SD card).
• The RC world's only electronic pre-flight checklist
• 2048 resolution on the first 10 channels (which include the primary controls) and 512 resolution on the remaining 8 X-Plus channels
• All switches and channels are completely assignable. Want to move throttle trim to the right slider? You can. Want to use the throttle stick to control sailplane camber and crow? You can. Basically, the user can program any stick, dial, switch or slider to generate any output they choose.
• Four timers – a system timer for the overall on air time of the radio, a model memory timer for the flight time of a specific model, and two count down/stopwatch timers that can be activated any number of ways.

Chemicals that touch skin can lead to a reaction on the skin, throughout the body, or both.
Burn from chemicals
Chemical exposure is not always obvious. You should suspect chemical exposure if an otherwise healthy person becomes ill for no apparent reason, particularly if an empty chemical container is found nearby.
Exposure to chemicals at work over a long period of time can cause changing symptoms as the chemical builds up in the person's body.
If the person has a chemical in the eyes, see first aid for eye emergencies.
If the person has swallowed or inhaled a dangerous chemical, call a local poison control at 1-800-222-1222.
Depending on the type of exposure, the symptoms may include:
Note: If a chemical gets into the eyes, the eyes should be flushed with water immediately. Continue to flush the eyes with running water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical help immediately.
Call for medical help immediately if the person is having difficulty breathing, is having seizures, or is unconscious.

Penn State University Community:
In the aftermath of the events of last November, the University Faculty Senate had extensive discussions about the role of the Board of Trustees in those events and many expressed concerns about insufficient communication between the Board and various University constituencies. In response, then Senate Chair Dan Hagen appointed the Special Committee on University Governance, a diverse group of faculty, students, staff and alumni, to study the Board's structure, functions, practices and responsibilities as they relate to the Board's interactions with the University community and to make recommendations for improving communication.
The membership and charge of the Special Committee are posted at
The purpose of this letter is to briefly report on the progress of the Special Committee and to renew its invitation to any entity or individual in the University community to communicate directly with the Special Committee regarding any information or suggestions within this charge.
The Special Committee continues to assess how the Board of Trustees has previously interacted with constituencies within the University community and how the Board's current structures and practices affect those interactions. We are specifically interested in hearing suggestions for improving the Board's communication and interaction with the University community. Our purpose is not to rehash the past but rather to look forward and make constructive recommendations for improving the flow of information and governance of Penn State. Your feedback will help the Special Committee gain a better understanding of the key issues related to the Board of Trustees and to be better prepared to make thoughtful recommendations. Please send any comments to email@example.com.
The Special Committee already has consulted with numerous constituent groups and is continuing those consultations. A summary of those and other activities of the Special Committee are posted at http://senate.psu.edu/about_senate/committees/univ-gov/scug_progress.pdf.
Further, the chair of the Special Committee has met with representatives of the Freeh Group, and the full committee anticipates meeting with them after the Freeh report is released.
Thank you very much for your help and support for the work of the Special Committee.

Professor Emeritus and Chair, Special Committee on University Governance

Have you checked with The Modelhaus or MCW ? That would be my first two stops for a quality kit.
Posted 02 March 2013 - 11:52 AM
R & R Vacuum Craft makes resin '61 and '62 Impala wagon kits. The '61 kit has Impala emblems even though Chevy never made an Impala wagon in 1961. The top of the line full size Chevy wagon in 1961 was the Nomad. Both kits are available on ebay or www.resinrealm.net. I hope this helps.

Mission Statement
Living in Fellowship. Growing in Christ. Activating our family of faith in unity by Christ's example of sharing, caring and praying.
Sacristan Corps The function of the Sacristan Corps is to make all of the necessary preparations for worship and other functions or programs of the congregation. Sacristans are not a policy-making group and therefore are directed in their service by the Boards of Elders and Trustees. The ministry of the Sacristans is a sacred responsibility and honor, but it should not be a burden. Particularly during busy seasons such as Advent/Christmas and Lent/Easter, the Sacristans' Corps is free and encouraged to enlist the help of other interested members and friends of the congregation in facilitating the worship life of our congregation.

Saskatchewan's hot job market continues to be reflected in the latest figures from the saskjobs.ca website, which saw a 15.5 per cent increase in the number of postings for the month of September. The popularity of the website is also reaching new highs as the total visits surpassed one million in September.
Visits to SaskJobs were up 13.9 per cent or 127,089 year-over-year to reach 1,038,709. Notable increases in terms of their place of origin included the Philippines (65.3 per cent), the United Arab Emirates (44.7 per cent), India (39.1 per cent), Alberta (34.2 per cent), the United States (33.4 per cent) and Quebec (31.9 per cent).
"The popularity of SaskJobs is understandable when you look at the range of opportunities we have to offer in the province," Economy Minister Bill Boyd said. "People go to where the jobs are, and right now that's Saskatchewan. We have the lowest unemployment rate in the country and the second highest average earnings."
A total of 17,593 job postings were advertised on SaskJobs last month, up by 2,358 over September 2012. Job postings were placed in 324 communities, with the greatest year-over-year increases in Prince Albert (117.6 per cent), Regina (27.0 per cent) and Humboldt (24.8 per cent).
Year-over-year increases were strongest in the Art, Culture, Recreation and Sport (53.7 per cent), Management (33.0 per cent) and Business, Finance and Administration (24.0 per cent) categories. Of the job vacancies on the site, 43 per cent require at least some post-secondary education or management experience.

Mr. Jarndyce promises to assist Esther and her mother in every way possible. He agrees that Tulkinghorn is a dangerous person. In the same conversation, Mr. Jarndyce tells Esther that one week later she should send Charley to his room for a letter, which he will have written by then.
The letter turns out to be a marriage proposal. Esther feels blessed to be chosen as the mistress of Bleak House. During the next several days, she expects Mr. Jarndyce to bring up the subject of the letter, but as he does not, she (a week after the proposal) takes the initiative and gives him the answer he has hoped for.
Dickens and his readers seemed never to tire of doting upon the virtues of "good" characters like Esther and Mr. Jarndyce. Of romance or physical attraction, nothing is said here.

5.0 Mustang & Super FordsHow To Engine
Mustang Engine Swaps - Pop Swaps
Out with the good and in with the betteran overview of popular Mustang engine swaps
Honorable Mentions
460 Big-Block
Back in the mid- to late-'80s, plopping the giant 460 anvil into then-new Fox Mustangs had its 15 minutes of fame. These were sinfully heavy all-iron big-blocks that produced mountains of chassis-twisting torque in near stock form and untold power fully hot-rodded. In short, they proved too much for a Mustang, and today the same torque and power can be had in a 200-pound-lighter package. But if you insist, the headers and carburetors are still available, and you can get 514 ci from one of these without trying too hard or 600-plus inches on a big budget.
EcoBoost V-6
Ford engineers must have an F-150 EcoBoost V-6 powered Mustang somewhere in Dearborn, but we've yet to see one. It would make a great conversation piece and a sharp-handling Mustang with approximately '11 Coyote straight-line performance (or better in a lightweight Fox?), but without factory support it would be impossible to wire up. Only the most experienced and well-connected pros should try this one.
We doubt anyone would bother with this swap unless they prized handling above all else, even if the straight-line performance should easily out-run a '96-'98 GT. Still, the resulting car would be a novelty--although given the still-as-yet-unknown complexities of the newest V-6's engine management, a nearly impossible stunt to pull off.
Sold as the base engine in Super Duty pickups and the SVT Raptor F-150, the new 6.2-liter V-8 is the stuff of exotic Mustang swaps. There are no kits and the large 6.2 measures 3.5-inches longer and a 1/4-inch wider than a Three-Valve V-8; it packs unique engine mount placement and who knows what electronic gremlins. But the bellhousing pattern is stock modular, not to mention it's a beefy 380 ci and the cylinder heads support 750 hp with minimal hand detailing. There's a reward of fame here for the pioneering Ford enthusiast, but it would be hard-earned.
GlossaryWe're as guilty as anyone for using Ford jargon. Here's a quick explanation in case you're new to the club.
|'82-'95 302 pushrod V-8, the original 5.0
|'96-'04 Two-Valve modular 4.6-liter V-8

|Any Four-Valve modular 4.6-liter V-8

Teen Mom
5 Things We Want to See From Maci Bookout on Teen Mom's Final Season
Teen Mom's epic last season (aka the final frontier) is almost upon us, and you know what that means — it's time to break out your "special occasion Uggs" and sob soft tears.
We're desperate for a fix of MTV's original fab four, so we've rounded up five things we want to see from Maci Bookout when she returns for one last Teen Mom ride!
1. We Need More Baby Bentley!
Baby Bentley steals the spotlight every week on Teen Mom, but because of Maci's joint custody agreement with Ryan Edwards, we only see this little dude half-time.
Raise your hand if you'd be perfectly happy to ditch Teen Mom and watch Teen Babies staring Bentley and his baberific friends? Thought so.
Bents is just so adorable — especially when he rides around on his mini dirt bike! Sigh, like father, like son. Which leads us to ....
2. A Better Relationship With Ryan Edwards
Maci and Ryan have had their share of ups and downs, but it's time to put the past in the past and concentrate on giving Bentley a stress-free environment.
Now that Ryan's dating professional model, Dalis Connell, he'll probably stop being so bitter about Maci and Kyle, which will help everyone get along better.
Then again, we love ourselves some Teen Mom drama-rama, and if we're totally honest, we just want a chance to gawk in awe at Ryan's chiseled abs!
2. Insight Into Maci And Kyle's Breakup
Maci and her long-term boyfriend (the ever-mumbling Kyle King) broke up a few months ago, and we're still in shock.
These two have been evasive about what caused their relationship to crash and burn, but last time we checked they were considering marriage and baby-making. What went wrong?
Something big must have gone down between Maci and her prince charming, and we need answers now! Fingers crossed that neither of them cheated, because no amount of pizza can prepare us for that emotional roller-coaster.
4. More Time With Her Friends
Despite her sweet and friendly personality, Maci has never been very social on camera. She jumped out of her relationship with Ryan and into Kyle's arms, and between work and school, she doesn't have much time for socializing.But all you have to do is take one look at Maci's Twitter to see that she's a party girl!
Here's to hoping Maci takes her fab life out of the club and onto our television screens next season. We can't wait to see her party like a rockstar with her girlfriends!
5. A New Career Path!
As Teen Mom comes to a close, Maci and her co-stars will have to find new sources of income. Maci's always been a hard-worker, and her newest hobby is giving motivational speeches about teen parenting.
We'd love to see Maci educate even more young women about her experience as a teen mom — and we wouldn't say no to a spin-off reality show. Just saying.
