These free DIY printable garden seed markers are made from recycled plastic salad containers. The packrat in me always kinda feel bad about throwing these plastic salad containers away so thought I'd try to make something useful from them. And I thought that the salad container plastic could make a great waterproof outer case for garden seed markers.
This year we decided to 86 buying flowers for our deck and instead just grow vegetables and other edibles. So far Elise and I have planted tomato seeds, lettuce and basil. These seed markers not only help you keep track of which seeds are what but they also show plant maintenance and care including watering instructions, thinning distances, and harvesting guidelines.
The geometric design was inspired by these pretty graphic patterns that I first saw on design*sponge and uses the super cool font Blanch from the Lost Type Co-op.
And bonus! This project gave me an excuse to use one of my favorite hardware store materials: colored electrical tape…
Hopefully we'll have a good growing season in Chicago. And with our budding lettuce crop, Elise and I will hopefully have to buy a whole lot less plastic salad containers this summer.

How to make a DIY garden seed markers from recycled plastic salad containers:
Wash and dry an empty salad or spinach container. You can also use carry out clear plastic containers from restaurants such as the ones from Homemade Pizza Company. Peel off the labels as much as you can. Then give it a soak to remove the rest of the paper bits, dry it off and then use a little bit of Goo Gone to get the rest of the sticky part off. Dry the clean plastic salad container and set aside.
Download my free DIY garden seed markers printable (PDF) and print onto white cardstock paper.
Cut out the seed marker fronts and backs using scissors or an Xacto knife, metal ruler and small self-healing mat.
Here are all of the cut out garden seed markers, fronts and backs.
Lay out the garden seed markers on your salad container and trace with a Sharpie pen. I was able to get five pieces from the salad container top and cut the sixth from the bottom.
Cut out the garden seed marker front and back from the plastic salad container lid.
I was lazy and left a little bit of the Sharpie on the sides. But I didn't really notice it later once it was covered in electrical tape so I think it's OK to be a bit sloppy with it.
Put the blank sides of the garden seed marker front and backs together.
Sandwich them between clear plastic sheets on the front and back.
Now for the electrical tape! Start with the lower edge, placing the tape half-way lengthwise on the front. Cut the tape.
Wrap the other half of the tape around to the back. Repeat on the other side. Then tape the bottom up so it's nice and water tight.
Move your way up, taping the left and right sides again so the tape wraps around the garden seed marker lengthwise.
Repeat on the other side of the garden seed marker.
Now tape up the top of the seed marker to seal it all up from the elements.
Repeat the plastic salad container sandwiching and electrical taping for your other garden seed markers. Then off to the garden!

Will America ever see another iconic industrialist like Steve Jobs? Another Apple [NASDAQ:AAPL]? Some one, some company, some thing that will spur another boom? Even another period of "irrational exuberance?"
You know that for many the answer is negative, implicit in much of what is in circulation in the current pessimistic zeitgeist. But the reality is that another Apple will happen. Not making the same kind of products, nor necessarily even in the same technology sphere. But another iconic innovator is inevitable. To understand why, start with what Steve Jobs did, did not do, and the technological pallet he used to create the artistic beauty of Apple products.
First, viewed from the context of foundational inventions like the vacuum tube, the internal combustion engine, the transistor, Steve Jobs didn't invent a thing. Jobs, and other earlier similarly successful industrial giants, created compelling products and services from the happy confluence of new technologies maturing in terms of cost and performance.
The 2007 introduction of the iPhone was Apple's big break-out product, the one that put it on the ride to become the most valuable company in the world. Competitors followed and collectively transformed a global industry with smart phones rapidly populating the planet. This is something no one really anticipated happening so fast and so pervasively; the untethered, wireless handheld computer. Early on, George Gilder gets credit for anticipating such a device and trying to label it the "teleputer." "Smart phone" is what has stuck even though it is rarely used for talking, and is no more a "phone" than "cc" is a carbon copy on your email.
The iPhone was utterly brilliant, in design, execution and function. But it, and its imitators, could not have come about but for the availability of three technologies that came of age, none of which Apple or Steve Jobs had anything to do with: the large scale integrated (LSI) circuit, the gallium arsenide (GaAs) radio chip, and the lithium battery. Take any one of these away, and no iPhone. It takes nothing away from Apple and Jobs that they were the first to realize what magic could be wrought from that happy technological trifecta. But the revolution's roots were put in place decades earlier. To see future revolutions, let's stick to the past first, and the iPhone's roots.
The LSI circuit was invented in 1959 by Jack Kilby then at Texas Instruments, and for which he received a Nobel Prize. Large-scale silicon integration started to come of age around 1974, with ten thousand transistors per chip, eventually reaching today's billions of transistors. LSI gave us computers on a single silicon sliver, and at a price that nearly anyone can afford. There's more compute power in an iPhone than the IBM mainframes some us remember using in the Jurassic era of electronic computing.
The second leg of the stool that supports the iPhone traces its roots to the mid-1980s with the invention of the tiny ultra-high-performance radio frequency transistor using the ethereal qualities of a then new and challenging class of semiconductor called gallium arsenide (GaAs), not silicon. Cell phones are, fundamentally, radios – or rather, they need tiny radios to be on all the time for the onboard compute function to stay constantly connected to networks. Early GaAs innovators, many supported at the time with Department of Defense R&D funding, included TRW (since absorbed by Northrop), RFMD [NASDAQ:RFMD] and TriQuint [NASDAQ:TQNT].
And the third leg is the lithium-ion battery which provided game-changing high-performance, long-life storage of electricity enabling useful portability. Lithium battery chemistry was first proposed in the early 1970s by Exxon chemist Whittingham, and made feasible with a practical electrochemical architecture in 1979 courtesy of University of Texas's professor Goodenough. Without lithium, your iPhone would still look like Gordon Gekko's brick-sized phone from the 1987 Hollywood hit "Wall Street."
The common denominators visible in this history? Three enabling technologies whose combination yielded something fundamentally different. And these magical foundational inventions existed for decades before the inexorable process of engineering maturation yielded metrics that mattered – fast, powerful, cheap. Sure other things were needed to make iPhones – from plastic and steel, to electricity and glass. But it was the trifecta of LSI, GaAs and Li-ion that enabled the mind of a Steve Jobs and the industrial machinery of an Apple to unleash the iPhone, the teleputer, revolution.
This is not the first time that history has witnessed the Technology Rule of Three – when revolutions emerge from the maturation and combination of, typically, three enabling technologies. Before considering what the future holds, let's digress briefly to illustrate how the same Rule-of-Three paradigm underpinned other economic revolutions associated with such iconic names as Marconi, Carrier, Ford, Sarnoff, Watson, and Cerf.
William Morse, father of the telegraph, the "Victorian Internet" (about which a book so titled by Tom Standage is a compelling read) was built on the three enabling technologies of the electromagnet, the battery, and cable making. <next page>

Last weekend during one of our outings I noticed a bumper sticker that read "If you could ask God one question.." A rather thought provoking bumper sticker. So it started a conversation between Ron and I. If you had the chance to sit down with God and ask him just one question what would it be? Ron's question is, "Why are you so confusing?"
I typed the question on Google and was just amazed at how many websites are devoted to this question. I'm interested in what you might ask as well.
My question would be "Are you pleased with me?" What would you ask?

So I wrote some Python scripts to do this. They intercept iTunes' requests for cover art, and allow you to send your own images. They're sent back to iTunes in the same format that the iTMS sends them, so they work just as well. The script includes a basic browser-based interface for selecting images for each album. You can enter your own URLs, or search Amazon for covers.
You'll need to have Python 2.4.3 installed, and not be afraid to edit your hosts file. If you want to search Amazon, you'll also need to sign up for a free Amazon Web Services account. Download the scripts (40KB) (MacOSXHints mirror), and you'll find the instructions in the included README.txt file.

Turkish Statistical Institute Population Projections 2013-2075
No: 15844
14 February 2013
Population Projections, 2013-2075
Population projections are very important for future policy-making. Determination of current population trends and predicting future population structure according to these trends provide making healthier policies. It should not be ignored that population projections are not a forecast but an application that shows the progress of the population in case of current population trends continue or reflecting the trends of other countries which lived similar processes previously after an analysis.
Population projections, which was last produced according to the results of 2008 Address Based Population Registration System (ABPRS) and 2008 Turkey Demographic and Health Survey, are renewed due to improvements on the birth and death data obtained from registration systems, formation of a serial of migration statistics from ABPRS and to meet the national and international needs. The study for the population projections were carried out by a working group including the participants from related university and institutions.
Population projections were made on the basis of the results of 2012 ABPRS and produced for both Turkey in total and 81 provinces. Besides, projections were made by single ages until the year 2075 for Turkey. In addition, for the first time in our country, much-needed population projections at provincial level produced officially and announced to the public with this news release. Changes in the population of all the provinces between 2013-2023 were projected by analyzing the trends of the demographic events and population projections were produced for all provinces. On the other hand alternative population projections reflecting different fertility variants were also made. The details of the study are provided in the tables of this news release.
The population of Turkey is expected to be 84 247 088 in 2023
The population of Turkey will be 84 247 088 in 2023. The population will increase slowly to the year 2050, and it will reach to its highest value with 93 475 575 people in this year. After 2050, the population will start to decline, and it is expected to be 89 172 088 in 2075.
Population of Turkey, 2013-2075
The proportion of elderly population in the population of Turkey will reach to 10.2% in 2023
If the current trends of demographic indicators persist, the population of Turkey will continue ageing. Elderly population, which is the population at 65 years of age and over, is 5.7 million in 2012 with a proportion of 7.5% and this population will reach to 8.6 million people with a proportion of 10.2% in 2023.
Half of the population of Turkey will be over age 34 in 2023
While the median age of the population of Turkey was 30.1 in 2012, it will increase to 34 in 2023. The median age of the male population was 29.5 in 2012, will increase to 33.3 in 2023. The median age of the female population was 30.6 in 2012 will be 34.6 in 2023.
The median age of the population of Turkey will be 42.9 in 2050 and 47.4 in 2075. The median age of the male population will be 41.8 in 2050, and it will reach to 46 in 2075. The median age will be 44 in 2050, and 48.7 in 2075 for females.
Median age, 2012-2075
The population of İstanbul will be 16.6 million in 2023
While the population of 60 provinces will increase, the population of 21 provinces will decrease in 2023 compared to 2012 ABPRS results. The order of the most populous four provinces will not change. While the population of Ankara will increase to 5.9 million, the population of İzmir will be 4.4 million, and the population of Bursa will be 3.1 million. The place of Adana, which is the fifth populous province in 2012, will be taken by the province of Antalya with a population of 2.6 million.
Most populous 10 provinces in 2012 Most populous 10 provinces in 2023
Sinop will stil have the highest median age in 2023
Çorum will follow Sinop (44.4), which will have the highest median age, with a median age of 42.9 in 2023. While the median age was lowest in Şırnak (18.5) in 2012, it will be lowest in Şanlıurfa in 2023 with a median age of 20.8.
5 provinces that have the highest median age, 2012-2023
Şanlıurfa will have the highest proportion of child population in 2023 with 38.6%
Şırnak had the highest proportion of child population (population at 0-14 age group) in 2012 with 42%. Şanlıurfa was the second with 41.5% after Şırnak. In 2023, Şanlıurfa will have the highest proportion of child population, and Ağrı will follow Şanlıurfa with 35.2%.
5 provinces that have the highest proportion of child population, 2012-2023
The proportion of elderly population in the total population will be 27.7% in 2075
Elderly population (population at 65 years of age and over) will be 8.6 million in 2023, it will increase to 19.5 million in 2050, and 24.7 million in 2075. The proportion of elderly population in the total population will increase to 10.2% in 2023, and it will be 20.8% in 2050 and 27.7% in 2075, respectively.
Population pyramid, 2013-2050 Population pyramid, 2013-2075
If the average number of children per woman would be 2.5 in 2050, the total population will be 119 million in 2075
If the average number of children per woman will reach to 2.5 in 2050, the population will be 119 million in 2075.
The effect of fertility rate changes of Turkey on the size of the population, age structure and other demographic processes was examined with two different scenarios except for the basic scenario (Scenario 1) for the population projections. The main difference among these scenarios is the change in the average number of children per woman by years. These scenarios:
Scenario 1 (Basic scenario):
In this scenario total fertility rate decreases in its natural flow and reaches to its lowest value 1.65 in 2050, and then increases after this year and reaches the value of 1.85 in 2075.
Scenario 2:
In this scenario total fertility rate increases to 2.11 in 2020 and to 2.50 in 2050 gradually, and then remains stable between the years 2050 and 2075.
Scenario 3:
In this scenario total fertility rate increases gradually to 3 in 2050, and then remains stable to 2075.
Total fertility rate, Turkey, 1976-2075
Population and elderly population according to different fertility variants
Population size of Turkey will fall to 24th rank among the World countries, in 2075
According to the 2012 based population projections of United Nations, world population is approximately 7 billions and 52 millions people. Turkey, which forms 1.1 percent of the world population in 2012 is the 18th of most populated country.
While the world population will be approximately 9 billions and 306 millions people in 2050, Turkey will drop to 20th in rank, according to the basic projection scenario. In 2075, world population size will increase to 9 billions and 905 millions people. The rank of Turkey will change as 24.
Population projections for 2013 and after were made by cohort-component method. Cohort-component method is based on lifelong monitoring of the cohorts that are at the same age. The cohorts are annual birth cohorts (age-cohorts). The components are births, deaths and migration.
Unestimated changes in population may cause differentiation from the real population size. Population projections are revised due to new demographic trends, when various radical changes are determined.
The population figures of these projections differ from the older ones, about being produced as end-of-the-year values, targeting to be comparable with the results of Address Based Population Registration System.
Alternative projection scenarios, that allow to observe the different aspects for future of the population size and pattern, have been produced to make awareness about ageing of population, fertility and decline of fertility, which are recent public discussion topics.
"World Population Prospects, 2010 Revision" publication of The United Nations was used to make comparisons with the other countries. Population projections of such countries and official projections of TURKSTAT, which were made for Turkey, were compared to provide information about the place of population of Turkey in the world. The outputs of basic scenario (Scenario 1) were used for those comparisons.
"PADIS-Int" software, which was produced by China National Population and Family Planning Commission (NPFPC) was used for designing and making projections.

Jeff Matthews OT Texas A&M #75
Wt: 308
[divider top="0″ style="solid"]
Size/Athleticism: Looks the part of an NFL left tackle. Strength is a little underwhelming. Only 24 reps on the bench press at the combine and that lack of power shows in his play. Moderate athleticism, but definitely a notch below the elite left tackles that can slide out and mirror the league's best pass-rushers.
Pass Protection: Very polished in terms of his fundamentals when he has time. If a pass-rusher doesn't challenge him with speed off the edge or throw him off balance immediately, he gets into position and generally will hold his ground. However, he's sort of a bend-but-don't-break lineman. He holds his ground most of the time, but he'll get walked back a few steps and rarely finishes anyone off. Struggles with balance at times. Doesn't always stay low enough to play with leverage and gets knocked back on his heels too often. Does a nice job diagnosing the defense and making late adjustments based on delayed blitzes, etc.
Run Blocking: Capable of getting to the second level but quickness and agility are limited and doesn't always get to his assignment. Has a tendency to get lost in space and takes too long to pick a direction. Doesn't have the power to finish guys off. Technically sound and clearly has a strong grasp of his assignments. Does a nice job using his assignment's momentum to direct him away from the designed direction of the play.
Intangibles: Comes from the most successful NFL family in league history. Son of Hall of Famer Bruce Matthews. Cousin of Packers linebacker Clay Matthews.
Durability: Extremely durable. 45 consecutive starts.
Comments: Matthews is among the most technically sound linemen to enter the draft in recent years, but he's somewhat limited in terms of his physical tools. He's built to be more of a power blocker than a finesse lineman, but he lacks the strength to dominate. He may have already maxed out his potential, giving him very little upside. If he's already playing at or near his peak, he's still a quality starter in the NFL but clearly below the elite level.

US Bond Market 2016 In light of the failure of Congress and President Obama once again breaking the deadlock in the situation regarding the limits of religion, «Wall Street», Washington and directed their attention to an important question, which is: How long them to Centument Software investors? Said William Daily, White House chief of staff in «Face The Nation» Sunday morning program on Channel «CBS»: «probably be in front of us a few days of tension for the market and the world and Americans». And it indicates the initial reaction to the crisis to concern in global markets as the dollar lost strength against other currencies and the decline in futures in the US capital markets and the high price of gold, which is a store of value during times of doubt and uncertainty.
But nonetheless I enjoyed US Treasury bonds, which are long-time market more safer havens, which are resorted to in the world, relative stability of Centument Software
Fred Dickson, chief strategist in the company «Davidson Kambynaz» brokerage and money management in Montana says: «it is not surprising to see little response from global acts on the lack of any indication of near reaching an agreement. Maybe sale of bonds of 1 to 2 per cent. » It's too early to know the impact of the impasse on the markets during the week and whether the sale of the bond rate will increase or not.
She told the Treasury Department that the government must reach an agreement by the second of August, otherwise you'll run the risk of failing to meet its obligations such as interest on debt or social security or pay the salaries of federal employees for a temporary period.
Some investors believe that the United States will back down from its position on the private debt. Analysts have pointed out that the government is about to reach an important financial agreements in the past without a major collapse in the market. But the biggest concern in the markets remain represented in the loss of confidence of investors in Treasury bonds and the trend toward selling them, which would reduce the value and increase the interest rates on them. Said John Canavan, Centument Reviews market analyst at the company «Land Stone McCarthy Research» Research in Princeton, New Jersey, said he believed that some investors may sell US Treasuries to buy German bonds, or assets in Asia and in emerging countries with economies markets. He pointed out that foreign investors own a large share of the US debt than was the case several decades ago. Canavan and adds: «They do not have those bonds out of the national feeling, so it will dispose of them if they feel that kept them represents a threat». Canavan replied without hesitation when asked how long investors will become more nervous and tense, saying: «now. There is an exception in the case of whether reached a deal, but given the failure witnessed this week, I think that the confidence of the market back down ». http://www.centumentltd.com/centument-ltd-reviews
There was no strong reaction in Asian markets on Monday, as it dropped all of the indices «nee Kay 225» in Japan and «Straits Times» in Singapore by 0.8 per cent. The decline «Standard & Poor's» index in Australia increased by 1.6 per cent, while «Shanghai Composite» index decline in the Chinese stock market by 3 per cent, with investors selling the shares of infrastructure after the collision of a massive train crash in eastern China last weekend.
Gold prices rose to a maximum nominal rates, as the price above $ 1 622 an ounce and the price of $ 1617 traded by the afternoon in Asia. And it decreased index futures «Standard & Poor's 500 stock» by about 1 per cent.
European stock markets fell by 1 per cent or less, while swing the dollar exchange rate against other currencies. But he came back to rise against the euro and the British pound, but fell again against the yen fell to its lowest level against the Swiss franc, which is usually seen as a safe store of value. It is often difficult to determine the moment of the beginning of panic, the financial crisis in 2008, for example, go back to the summer of 2007, but it did not lead to total chaos in the Centument Review market for more than a year. He said a lot of government officials during that period that the situation is under control.
It includes the situation in the United States some of the classic ingredients for disorders of the sales process in the words of financial historians. Panic sometimes happens when uncertainty surrounds one of the assets that are seen as extremely safe. It includes other cases of financial turmoil speculation amounts in a particular investment, which is often a very safe and sometimes include low interest rates. Some financial historians believe that the markets have become more prone to panic than previously because of pumping a large amount of money in short-term investments such as money market funds. See David Moss, professor of economic policy at the Faculty of Business Administration at Harvard University, that the current situation is unusual, though in a manner that is important. He explained that the Treasury Binary Options ATM Review bonds a safe store of value during times of panic, so maybe people do not escape them. Moss added that the result may be «crazy rush» away from Treasuries or «not to take a position because of uncertainty».
Treasuries have been the cause pivotal to panic in the United States before, but Richard said Sylla, finance professor at the Stern School of Business at New York University, that American history provides examples of this, as in 1792 when a trader Treasuries suffered from problems, led that a sharp rise in bond market lost 25 per cent of its value.
After that hundred years the Congress was forced to convene an emergency session due to lack of gold reserves in the Treasury Department with foreign investors abandon the dollar versus gold in the words of Sila. He explained: «Now we can talk about that can happen if China sold all of its holdings of US Treasury bonds. In 1893, foreign investors do exactly this. » Sylla's initial estimate of the current situation is «they are playing with fire in Washington, DC now.» Said Kevin Flanagan, head of fixed income at «Morgan Stanley Smith Barney», about it: «When you are in the area of the bond be thinking in defaults like material Binary Options ATM that weaken Superman, so it is not the word you want to hear it». But perhaps because no one wants to talk seriously about panic, Moss and Silas and Flanagan said they do not believe in Washington's ability to reach an agreement before the second of August (August) next. This will avoid technical default on short-term payment defaults and non-permanent default which could happen if the government was forced to postpone the payment of some financial obligations on a temporary basis, at the time of the budget to reach a special agreement.
In addition to monitoring market indicators such as the interest rate on Treasury prices. Traders said they were eager to see whether the Treasury will announce on Monday cut the size of new bond auction this week or not. The ministry has reduced the size of the Centument bonds offered in the auction over the last month to allow more flexibility in the case not to increase the debt limit next week.
Moss said he did not believe that many people who thought that the state may turn to the risk of a full default on its debt and refuses to pay. But he said the panic may «acquires a stand-alone life» in the event of the expiration of the deadline, which expires on the second of August, for example, in case the need to terminate the contracts that rely on bond. When it comes to permanent investors, it did not see David Armstrong, a financial advisor in Washington and Executive Director of the Foundation Centument LTD, a lot of panic, they just called him two cardholders than 125 clients last week, while not related one by the end of the week. And he explains: «does not seem that people think that it will end default on payment. Everyone is talking about it, while not a feel panicked him. »

What the heck is pre-visualization? This term was first popularized in the early 20th century by some of the great landscape photographers shooting their beloved large format view cameras. Changing environmental conditions and the fleeting moment required these photographers to have an exacting knowledge of the behavior and magical alchemy of light, lens, film, filter, process and print. It was always about the print. While setting up and exposing a single sheet of film they knew exactly what the end result would be when they pressed the shutter release.
Many people are familiar with the story behind Ansel Adams' famous "Moonrise, Hernandez, New Mexico". Adams saw the scene, saw the moon and loved the light. Getting out his gear he couldn't find his light meter but knowing the brightness of the moon he set the exposure on his large format camera accordingly and exposed one of his most beloved photographs. He was a technically experienced photographer and through the process of pre-visualization he knew what he wanted and how to get it.
Some of the most admired and respected photographers in history came from disciplines other than photography. For example, Edward Steichen was trained as a painter, Paul Strand had first been a film maker and of course Henri Cartier-Bresson was a painter and sketch artist. Cartier-Bresson maintained that he never stopped drawing and that his ubiquitous Leica was an instant sketch pad. The point of all this is that these great photographers were visual thinkers, experts in non verbal communication and used the photographic medium to speak their particular language. Their artistic instincts, experience and training prepared them to look at the structure of a scene, the light and geometry and whether or not it was worthwhile pressing the shutter. It's not an easy thing to do well.
If you find your photographs lacking, spend time looking at and learning from the masters, study the structure of their images, look at their interpretation of light, line, and rhythm. Cross train, pick up a pencil and draw something you see, write, let your creative juices flow.
Next time you start to press the shutter, take a moment to pre-visualize and ask yourself these questions. Does everything inside the frame contribute to the strength of the image? Is there anything I can do differently to improve the light, or geometry of the image? Contemplate what you are trying to say and ask yourself if the image would speak for itself when printed and framed on your wall.

So what am I missing here?
Good point, David! I can only find those two as well
I'm presuming you're referring to "The Waterloo Roll Call" by Charles Dalton? Please correct me if I'm wrong! I've seen the entry in the 2nd edition "with biographical notes and anecdotes" and the details "Living at Melbourne, Australia, in 1891" etc. From the introduction to the Second Edition [1904] Dalton said that Part III was a special feature of the Second Edition - "the list of non-commissioned officers and men who served at Waterloo, and subsequently received commissions in the British army." He didn't detail the source of this list although he said that he had "received much additional information from the relatives of Waterloo officers." Was this the source for Jeremiah's details? Certainly the Geelong newspapers reported that he was "found out" and that was the start of his decline when he left the United Service Home and was charged with vagrancy 3 times in 1893 and imprisoned for each charge.

The components do not come with a crossover so what Im thinking is running the tweeters off the HU and the rest off the speackers off the amp. Is it a good idea to do it this way.

Here is were I start to actually do some work. Do your normal disassembly stuff prior to getting into the engine. This includes
, You will need a bucket or a pan for a huge amount of coolant that will be mixed up with some Diesel. Plan accordingly. I didn't remove the entire Air Box assembly, it's likely a good idea to do so as it does give a bit more room. Also I started with the EASY side. The driver side has much less to remove to get to the meat of the nut. The Passenger side is a very different story. Both are plagued with valve cover bolts that are difficult to reach. Also if you have a camera it's a good time to take any pictures of things that 'You are sure you will remember how they go back together' but actually will totally forget after the second sixer of beer.

Drain the Expensive Coolant BEFORE removal
You should do a few things before getting into the disassembly stage, Drain the coolant. It's likely loaded up with diesel so get a bucket and figure out what you will need to do with the coolant / Diesel mix. You are going to flush the system like crazy afterwards so don't worry about that now. Also it's a good time to remove BOTH battery connections.
Remove Air Box
Unplug the Air Flow Sensor plug and start to remove this assembly. I only removed the top part of the air filter box. It may be easier to just remove the entire assembly (battery included) but I left it in being lazy.
Turbo Intake Hose
Remove the hose clamp at the TURBO. Note that you will need to remove 2 Bolts that hold the empty plastic housing between the Turbo and the Air Filter Box. You may have to remove the Air Box hose to get the the Breather which as I recall is under it. It removes with 2 Phillips heads, and be careful the screws have O-Rings on them as well as the Breather on the Bottom.
Intake Filter and Hoses Removed
Starting to clear up. You can see the support bracket that holds the piping on the engine. You can also see how tight the motor fits to the firewall making the last valve cover bolt difficult to get at. The 2 holes in the valve cover mate to the breather and seal with 2 O-Rings. Watch out when you pull this apart so things don't get lost.
Breather and Intake Hose
Closer view of the assembly and how it goes together. You don't need to remove the breather from the assembly. Remember keep parts together when possible.
Valve Cover Breather
Here is a close up of the Phillips head screw with the small O-Ring. Don't lose these...
Start Removing the Intercooler Pipe
Now that things are opened up a bit, get the intercooler pipe out of the way. This is where removal of the entire Air Box would have been nice, but really not that bad to get it out.

Remove Pipe From Mr. Turbo
Well technically it's not going to the turbo but close enough for a witty comment. Now get the other side of the pipe. Don't get nervous if you see oil in the pipe. You can leave the Turbo manifold side of clamp and blue hose attached. It's also a good time to make sure these are still in good condition. If not order up some while your working on the car.

There was a time that Gopalkrishna Gokhale's statement: 'What Bengal thinks today, India thinks tomorrow,' was true for a variety of fields. In science, literature, culture, philosophy, and politics, manyĀgiants of the Indian renaissance of the past two centuries were Bengalis.
But no more!
Bengal's current leaders are prophets looking backwards. Choosing slogans over commonsense, they have led the state, the most industrialized region of India 50Āyears ago, to economic ruin. Marxists functionaries have created a patronage system to control public life and stifle dissent. In the last panchayati elections held in May 2003, Opposition candidates were prevented from filing their nomination papers in several seats.
Kolkata is perhaps the world's last bastion of orthodox Marxist ideology. Although the government now claims to recognize the importance of industry and labour peace, it is yet to make fundamental changes in its approach to decision-making or treat its own culture with respect.
Five years ago, Jyoti Basu famously called the BJP leaders 'barbaric' and 'uncivilized.' He was articulating the disdain of the Westernized elite for the BJP's middle-class, desi moorings. The shopkeeper and the priest, supposed supporters of the BJP, are stock figures in the Left's demonology.
The real world is much more complex than the simple categories of the Left's analysis. An exaggerated sense of self-importance related to impending revolutionary change in the world distorts its reality. Some humour will do it good, since it reminds us that we are not gods or goddesses.
An elitist attitude, springing from a colonial way of seeing India, makes the Left decry the use of the traditional arati as formal welcome, but finds nothing wrong with the ritual and garb at the university convocations that spring from Christian ceremony.
We live in the global village and the origins of common ceremonies should not matter. For example, hatha yoga is now taught at Churches in the West and it is not unusual to see instructors asking their students to repeat Sanskrit mantras. Likewise, in marital arts courses, the use of Chinese, Japanese or Korean ceremonies (that have a religious basis) is considered appropriate.
More than the ideology itself -- because not too many believe in it any longer -- there is hypocrisy in the Left's critique of Indian tradition. Just last month Chief Minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee wrote to the prime minister complaining against the singing of Saraswati Vandana at the Bharatiyam Cultural Centre inaugural ceremony on November 19 at Salt Lake where he was a guest along withĀVice-President Bhairon Singh Shekhawat andĀTourism Minister Jagmohan.ĀLeft Front Chairman Biman Bose has also complained.
But Saraswati in India is like the Goddesses Fortuna and Liberty of the Roman religion. Marxists have no hesitation in invoking Fortune and Liberty, presumably because they are a part of European culture, from which Marx's ideology emerged. The Left's antipathy to Saraswati is nothing more than a slavish repetition of the colonial prejudices of the Europeans about Indian culture a hundred years ago.
The West Bengal government's ban on Taslima Nasreen's autobiography, Dwikhandita, is also driven by attitudes that are alien to the spirit of our times. Some intellectuals have justified it on the ground that controversial books are banned in the West.
This argument is false. When one reads of attempts by the Christian right in the United States to ban books dealing with evolution or sex, it is about taking these books off library shelves in schools, on the plea that they may not be the right material for children. I am not aware of any case where activists have sought to ban the sale of books. It must also be noted that in spite of such campaigns, the books stay inĀschool libraries.
Free currency of books is a necessary corollary to free speech. Ideas are like gene lines and just as species must not be allowed to die, we must not ban ideas or creative attitudes, especially if they challenge conventional wisdom.
In the case of Taslima Nasreen's book, some authors are enraged that accounts of their personal affairs are part of her story.Ā I think that is for the good. Taslima is absolutely right when she says that it is essential to show famous people for what they really are -- ordinary humans with their own ordinary weaknesses.
Even if her book is not great literature, as some critics assert, it is valuable as a document that describes contemporary celebrities and writers. It shows that genius in India and Bangladesh is no different from genius elsewhere, in having its dark side.Ā
It is as bad for writers and poets to think too highly of themselves as it is for politicians.ĀThis habit is a consequence of the unduly privileged position the official elite have occupied in the recent decades in India's public life, a position that was a consequence of the over-centralization of authority, whose origins, in turn, are in the colonial administration and control at the basis of the Government of India Act of 1935 that became the major part of the Indian Constitution of 1950.
It will be helpful to the government if its powers were circumscribed in certain spheres. If the right to free speech is guaranteed, then politicians or aggrieved authors will not pressure the government to ban this book or that.
The Left needs to recognize that culture is an expression of a variety of aesthetic attitudes. Its proclaimed distaste for the traditional Saraswati Vandana can only be viewed as petty narrow-mindedness. Even if its aesthetic sense is different -- and superior -- to that of the desi BJP's, doesn't the democratic impulse require that it focus on the substantial issues of governance and put up with the poor taste of its political opponents with good humour?

Tracy - posted on 02/19/2010 ( 6 moms have responded )
Hi all, has anyone else had their first period after birth yet. I got mine this week and want to know if it is normal that it is a lot heavier than any other period I have experienced? I had a feeling I was going to have it start sooner than most due to the fact that the breast feeding isn't going that great...still not able to get anywhere near the quantity needed for Austin. He's been on supplements of formula since day 1 and I have this feeling my milk isn't going to last for much longer. I'll keep trying to do it for as long as I can, but not having a good feeling that it is going to continue.
Any information is gladly accepted.

Gaps in therapy for suicidal teens
Study: Most teenagers who plan or attempt suicide had treatment
Published 11:09 pm, Tuesday, January 8, 2013
Most adolescents who plan or attempt suicide have already gotten at least some mental health treatment, raising questions about the effectiveness of current approaches to helping troubled teenagers, according to the largest in-depth analysis to date of suicidal behaviors in U.S. teenagers.
The study, posted online Tuesday by the journal JAMA Psychiatry, found 55 percent of suicidal teenagers had received some therapy before they thought about suicide, planned it or tried to kill themselves, contradicting the widely held belief that suicide is due in part to a lack of access to treatment.
The findings, based on interviews with a nationwide sample of more than 6,000 teenagers and at least one parent of each, linked suicidal behavior to complex combinations of mood disorders like depression and behavior problems that include attention-deficit and eating disorders, as well as alcohol and drug abuse.
The study found that about 1 in 8 teenagers had persistent suicidal thoughts at some point, and about a third of them had made a suicide attempt, usually within a year of having the idea.
Previous studies have had similar findings, based on smaller, regional samples. But the new study is the first to suggest, in a large nationwide sample, that access to treatment does not make a big difference.
The study suggests that effective treatment for severely suicidal teenagers must address not just mood disorders, but also behavior problems that can lead to impulsive acts, experts said. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 1,386 people between the ages of 13 and 18 committed suicide in 2010, the latest year for which numbers are available.
"I think one of the take-aways here is that treatment for depression may be necessary but not sufficient to prevent kids from attempting suicide," said Dr. David Brent, a professor of psychiatry at the University of Pittsburgh, who was not involved in the study. "We simply do not have empirically validated treatments for recurrent suicidal behavior."
The report said nothing about whether the therapies given were state of the art, said Matt Nock, a professor of psychology at Harvard and the lead author; and it is possible that some of the treatments prevented suicide attempts.
"But it's telling us we've got a long way to go to do this right," Nock said. His co-authors included Ronald C. Kessler of Harvard, and researchers from Boston University and Children's Hospital Boston.
Margaret McConnell, a consultant in Alexandria, Va., said that her daughter Alice, who killed herself in 2006, at the age of 17, was getting treatment at the time.
"I think there might have been some carelessness in the way the treatment was done," McConnell said, "and I was trusting a 17-year-old to manage her own medication. We found out after we lost her that she wasn't taking it regularly."
In the study, researchers surveyed 6,483 adolescents ages 13 to 18 and found that 9 percent of male teenagers and 15 percent of female teenagers experienced some stretch of having persistent suicidal thoughts. Among girls, 5 percent made suicide plans and 6 percent made at least one attempt (some were unplanned). Among boys, 3 percent made plans and 2 percent carried out attempts.
Overall, about one-third of teenagers with persistent suicidal thoughts went on to make an attempt to take their own lives.

Athens-Clarke County police have issued a lookout for one of two gunmen who robbed a Prince Avenue restaurant last week, pistol-whipping the manager and forcing him into a freezer.
Police also announced a reward of up to $1,000 for information leading to the arrest of the suspect, 22-year-old Ryan Jerrell Faust.
Faust, whose last known address was on Spring Valley Road, is said by police to be a member of a street gang and should be considered armed and dangerous.
Faust and 19-year-old Gerald Kendrick Baughns allegedly robbed Popeye's on Prince Avenue at gunpoint the night of July 10.
Police said an employee conspired with them by unlocking a back door after the restaurant closed for business.
Faust and Baughns entered through that door and hid in a restroom until all employees left, police said, at which time they robbed the manager in the office.
After taking an undisclosed amount of money, one of the suspects allegedly struck the manager in the head with a handgun before forcing him into a freezer, according to police.
As they ran toward the door, a bag of change broke, and the robbers spent several minutes picking up the spilled coins, police said.
When they got outside they encountered a man and woman in a car who were there to pick up the manager, police said. They reportedly ordered the driver to shut off the car's engine and give them the keys.
Police said that the woman in the car stated that one of the suspects urged the other to "shoot them," and the robber with the gun cocked the trigger, but didn't fire.
The men then hopped a fence, got into an SUV that was parked at a neighboring business and drove off, police said.
When reviewing surveillance camera footage, investigators determined that an employee was an accomplice to the robbery.
Police said Popeye's doors were locked at about 9:45 p.m., but about a half hour later they saw the employee, 27-year-old Christopher Andrew Brown, go to the back door and let in the two robbers.
Brown, who lives on Pine Lane Drive, was charged with armed robbery, aggravated assault and conspiracy.
Investigators subsequently identified Baughns as one of the gunmen and arrested him on robbery and assault charges at Bethel Midtown Village, police said.
Faust, the suspect who remains at large, is said by police to be a member of the Boss Playas street gang who normally hangs out at Bethel Midtown Village. The suspect was stabbed in the stomach last month by another man during an altercation at the apartment complex off College Avenue.
Anyone with information that could assist police in locating Faust should contact Detective Richie Boyle at (706) 613-3330, ext. 327, or (706) 623-2008. Anonymous calls can be made on the Crime Stoppers confidential tip line at (706) 613-3342.

Self Reliance Expo Dallas
This weekend the Self Reliance Expo made its stop in the north Texas area. Sarah and I managed to sneak over for a few hours to see what was going on. This was a pretty big feat for me since I had to violate a personal rule about crossing into Dallas County. Dallas has a lot to offer and a lot of cool things going, for most people. It's there if I need it, but I can generally make due without the massive 6 lane freeways and the 5 mile long interchanges that involve half of the major interstate highways in Texas. Couple that with all the drivers that feel like they aren't moving unless they are passing you. Yeah, I generally avoid the big city unless something really cool is going on. Fort Worth can be crazy, but Dallas is usually pure insanity. That "something cool" was there this past weekend.
We didn't get to make it out that way until around noon on Saturday. I like getting to events much sooner to the opening than that, but with prior obligations we got there as soon as we could. I was hoping that showing up halfway into the second day of a two day event would still allow me to see everything available and meet the folks I was hoping to run into. I wasn't disappointed in the least. We made it just in time to catch the presentation from Doctor Bones and Nurse Amy from Doom and Bloom. It didn't take long before they had our full attention. For an hour they covered medical care for collapse situations. Everything from broken bones to lacerations was covered in detail with a great slideshow presentation. I've sat in on medical presentations in the past that bordered on boring. A few have crossed over into true slumberland. Not this round. Doctor Bones and Nurse Amy are both good presenters and enjoy interacting with their audience. Not once did I get the feeling that they were dragging. I'm looking forward to getting my hands on their new book, The Doom and Bloom Survival Medicine Handbook. I was planning on getting one at the expo, but Doctor Bones explained that they managed to sell every copy they brought with them.
Once the presentation was over it was time to hit the aisles and see the vendor booths. Food and water are always popular items at events like this, so I got to get myself familiar with the product offerings for both. Berkey water filtration seemed to be a hit, so it took me a few minutes to get up to the booth and ask a few questions. I was surprised as the number of options available for filtering water. I knew about the big countertop units Berkey offers, but discovered they have other options as well. Of note were water bottles with integrated ceramic filters. Sarah pointed out this might be a good gift option for friends of ours that spend a few months each year in research in the jungles of Central America. To say the water should be avoided down there is an understatement!
Next we were on to the food vendors. The normal offerings were available including Mountain House, Wise and Thrive brand long term foods. Sarah discovered Thrive's freeze dried grated cheese. We're both a little leery of long term dairy, but this stuff was pretty good. We'll be adding some of that to the long term storage. The hit of the day for me was the booth for OvaEasy Whole Egg Crystals. I've had dried eggs in the past and the results were less than stellar. After asking the important question… "Are these just powdered eggs?" I was presented with a fork full of scrambled egg. That answered the question. "NO" these are not just powdered eggs. They tasted like eggs, but more importantly, they had the texture of eggs. Gonna have to add this one to the long term storage grocery list.
There were several booths extolling the virtues of alternative energy at the expo. That's a subject I'm interested in, but the product prices in that field are pretty much off limits for the prepping budget in the short term. I didn't spend much time in those booths, but will be sure to the next time the expo comes through town. I spent a little more time with the custom knife makers, but their wares were out of the budget as well. My lust for a custom knife will have to wait until more important items are procured.
The folks at Ready Made Resources were there showing off some of their cooler products. I only got to speak with the proprietor for a minute since his booth seemed to be one of the most popular that afternoon. They were showing off a solar power pack that looks incredibly portable and useful, but I didn't get a chance to ask many questions thinking I could find it on their website. No luck yet, so it looks like I need to give them a call.
On our way out the door, we paused to talk with the folks from Backwoods Home Magazine. I've been a fan of theirs for a long time, so I really enjoyed getting to meet Dave Duffy, the editor. Since I think they do a lot of great work for the Survival and Homestead community, I decided to go ahead and get a magazine subscription. They make a ton of info available on their website for free, so I wanted to support them on the side of the business that pays their bills.
Overall, I was impressed with the Self Reliance Expo. I think it was well worth the ticket price to get in the door. I hope the show was successful enough to expand to other cities, and I certainly hope to see it again in north Texas. Now I I can just talk them into moving it a little west to Fort Worth so I don't have to break my "No Dallas" rule again!
One Response to Self Reliance Expo Dallas
Thank you for the kind words. We are a family oriented organization and spend a lot of time planning to make sure we are educational, balanced, and safe. We fully intend to be back in Texas again next year, and Ft. Worth is the area we are looking at now. Please pass the information the the expo will continue online for 30 days starting this week at : http://www.selfrelianceexpoonline.com/ They can watch vendor videos and still purchase, but more important they can enter to win the door prizes including a Rossi 44mag Ranch Hand.
Thank you for attending.

So the police smell Marijuana from a car window and decide to pull it over and all hell eventually breaks loose. What turns out to be a typical pot bust almost takes a deadly twist. As the gangbanger exits the vehicle he appears to be cooperating with the police officer, but something told him to change his mind (Maybe he is afraid of going to prison) so he decides to dart off and make a break for it like Allen Iverson on a fast break.
But the Allen Iverson impersonator didn't realize that the Police officer would much rather impersonate Lawrence Taylor because he instantly drops him to the ground only for a struggle to ensue over a loaded hand gun. Watch the video of this creep getting twisted up. It should make your day.
While they rolled on the ground, struggling to get the thug in handcuffs the police officer can clearly see the gangbanger reaching for a gun in his pocket. Luckily his partner was able to assist with out anyone else intervening otherwise this would have very easily been a deadly struggle, and if it ended badly for the thug, we could very well be in the middle of another national riot and protest.
As sad as it may sound, we most likely have a great deal of people wondering why the cops had to choke and punch him like that. They don't care about the loaded gun, or the struggle for it. And they never will. To them its all about white cops getting physical with black youth. But anyone with a little common sense tells you everything you need to know: the officers would have been justified in ending that scum bags life. And if that had happened, he bought his slugs when he decided to struggle for his sidearm. But the real MVP here isnt the police officer or his partner. Its the other gangbanger who stood by quietly and let the officers do their job. There is no doubt in my mind if the co-defendant bum rushed the two officers, someone would have been shot.

WIth a post title like that I thought this was going to have a Gangnam Style parody video in it.
Does a parody of myself count?
I think it would Cal. We are all parodies of ourselves most of the time anyway. Love Teddy and the Pepsi.
That Teddy is so gorgeous. It's why he has the place of honor within my field of vision. 10 bucks loose...Now I have to find a George Washington the same way.
I don´t believe in the Zodiac. But I´m also a Gemini.
I like when these descriptions apply to my personality traits but it's easy to read what you want to see in your sign.

2 Broke Girls (CBS, 8 p.m.) – Season finale. Not only does this episode last 60 minutes longer than it should, which is to say it's an hour-long episode, it also has a grammatically incorrect title. "And Martha Stewart Have a Ball"? In the name of all that is holy (Kat Denning's breasts), what does that mean??? Daenerys is pissed.
MLB Baseball (ESPN, 7 p.m.) – My overachieving Mets play Danger's underachieving Phillies in Philadelphia in a game that decides nothing because it's May. Meanwhile, Dustin's Cleveland Spiders continue to not exist. (He's not much of a sports guy.)
World's Wildest Police Videos (Spike, 8 p.m.) – In case you missed it (you monster), here's our post about this show from earlier today. One more thing: Sheriff John Bunnell has a wonderfully active IMDb message board. Sample comment: "This douche with his annoying voice or the writers blow the situations WAY out of proportion." You'd think a show with "World's" and "Wildest" in the title wouldn't exaggerate, but alas.
Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations (Travel, 9 p.m.) – Bourdain goes to Japan for the "Cook It Raw" festival, which is both an oxymoron and possibly the only place in the world where you can get "smoky grilled pork and subtle purple yam with a ring of peppery foraged greens," which sounds amazing.
Castle (ABC, 10 p.m.) – Season finale. And so Castle made of [fill in the plot point because I don't watch the show] fall in the sea, eventually.
LATE NIGHT GUESTS: Beth Behrs and Spiritualized on Letterman; Michelle Pfeiffer and Bear Grylls and Leno; Kristen Stewart and Chloe Grace Moretz on Kimmel; Steve Guttenberg on Ferguson; Jennifer Connelly and the Beach Boys on Fallon; Metta World Peace and Matt Walsh on Conan; Sacha Baron Cohen on Stewart; and Andy Cohen on Colbert

Woman shot at car wash in stable condition
May 13, 2014 at 12:13 a.m.
Updated May 14, 2014 at 12:14 a.m.
The woman accidentally shot by her boyfriend Monday afternoon was in stable condition Tuesday in a San Antonio hospital.
Victoria Police Department responded to a call to Citizens Medical Center about 1:30 p.m. about a woman with a gunshot wound. They learned the shooting occurred at a car wash in the 1800 block of Delmar Drive.
Police said she was shot with a 12-gauge shotgun as her boyfriend took it from the trunk of his car.
Desiree Sodia, 21, was stabilized at Citizens Medical Center. She was later flown to San Antonio Military Medical Center, where she was recovering in the surgical center, a hospital spokeswoman said.
Her 23-year-old boyfriend was not arrested, as officers believe the shooting was accidental, said Detective Tanya Brown, a Victoria Police Department spokeswoman.

A Connecticut commercial fisherman who accidentally caught a giant 881-pound bluefin tuna, but had a permit for it just in case, was forced to cough up the potentially lucrative catch to federal regulators because the fish was caught it a net.
From this story in the Boston Globe:
For one New Bedford fisherman, the big one that got away was the one that was taken away — by federal fisheries agents. Carlos Rafael, owner of Carlos Seafood, has 15 boats that hunt for groundfish like haddock and flounder, but they have tuna permits just in case.
