RD400 of Doom – First Rebuild
Well, that didn't take long…
Kate, a friend, and I were headed downtown to a concert. Easily doing a buck-ten for several miles (on a closed course with professional drivers… duh), our friend, Chris, pulled up next to me and pointed to his gas tank. So we pull off. Kate's having some problems shifting so she pulls to the side of the road and I follow while Chris runs up to the station. Won't shift. Not up, not down. I fearfully unscrewed the dipstick to check the oil in the bottom end (as I'd done a few days prior), and only smoke came out. Don't know where the oil went, but the bottom end was very unhappy.
As far as I could tell the top end was fine, the crank was fine. The clutch was fine. It's clearly either some gears welded together or a bent shift fork.
And even though I was a little bummed, I was also kind-of excited, because I really wanted to tear into this motor anyway. So come along on this journey with me.
All prepped for surgery, let's begin.
Motor out with the help of a friend.
So… Something clearly going on here. I'm thinking the right side is / was running lean? Did check the plugs over the weekend, and they read perfect. So this could be remnant of a prior issue.
Now I'm not in any way an expert, and still relatively new to two-strokes, but the transfer port looks really choppy. Almost like someone started to do a port job and realized they'd had too much to drink, but not so much that they didn't have some sense left to make them stop. I dunno. Maybe that's normal.
Intake port. Again, it's hard to see in the picture, but it's all so rough…
Exhaust port. Same thing.
Piston looking pretty pitted.
And then there's this guy… It looks like it was about to hole any second. This is the clean (and I'm assuming too lean) cylinder. The thing looks awful. Also, I was told that this bike had fresh Wiseco pistons in it. Obviously not the case. BUT IT WILL SOON.
Piston windows. Just in case you were dying to know what those looked like.
And this is as far as I got last night. Thanks to my lack of a giant socket for the clutch basket. I believe it is a 29mm and I only go up to 27mm except for a few special ones I've purchased. I'll pick it up on the way home from work today and finish the tear down / inspection.
I'll keep this post updated with my progress. It might get crazy up in here, so just bare with me.
RD400 of Doom Updates
Just a few little things going on with the RD400 of Doom…
I made this little plate to mount a few dash-type things to. Came out pretty swell I thinks.
Here's what it looks like mounted.
Meanwhile, My good friend Junior was hard at work on a little bracket for the rear master cylinder. The PO shaved the bracket off of this frame, so we had to make a new one. Of course he put his own style into it.
I then moved on to working on mounting the slave cylinder I picked up to convert her to a hydraulic clutch. Junior saw what I was up to and was like, "No, no.. you leave this with me… It will be amazing…" – and since he's an amazing fabricator, it surely is amazing.
I even asked him to scratch his moniker into it. After-all, you have to sign your art.
Stay tuned for the completion of the hydro-clutch.
Motor and Wheels
So another pretty common question going around the Beemerverse is, "What spine lube do I use?" The most common answer: Honda Moly 60. You can get this stuff at pretty much any Honda bike dealership. Funny story… I went in and grabbed some and the guy behind the counter was like… "What do you people do with this stuff? You BMW guys… " Because apparently BMW owners come into this store all the time and buy this stuff. I explained what it was and why it's delicious.
Anyway, I threw it on my clutch spline and final drive/wheel spline.
We got the motor back in the frame, (sans oil pan… that would have been difficult (read: impossible)). I threw the new oil pan gasket on there and bolted it all back down. So looking forward to not having a leaky bike.
And this is how she sits.

NCBI Workshops Promote Prevention, Understanding, Acceptance
Posted: May 3, 2000 at 1:00 am, Last Updated: November 30, -0001 at 12:00 am
To eliminate prejudice and inter-group conflict in the university workplace, the Multicultural Research and Resource Center of University Life hosts two workshops this month. Both are held in Mason Hall, Room D3, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
A workshop on the Prejudice Reduction Model, held Tuesday, May 23, focuses on the institutional and emotional impact of discrimination. Participants learn how to identify and address racism, sexism, homophobia, and other forms of discrimination.
A workshop on the Controversial Issues Process, held Thursday, May 25, provides a structured method for communicating on both sides of a controversy. This process helps groups work through issues that may cause division and animosity.
The workshops, organized by Dennis Webster, director of the Multicultural Research and Resource Center and cofounder of the George Mason chapter of the National Coalition Building Institute (NCBI), are modeled after initiatives created by NCBI, a nonprofit organization with the goal of eliminating prejudice and conflict among communities worldwide. The goal of the workshops is to incorporate NCBI capabilities into the functioning of administrative and faculty offices and to supplement curricula or faculty and staff training.
"Since its inception in 1984, NCBI's prejudice reduction and conflict resolution models have been key to reducing inter-group conflict at many colleges and universities," says Karen Rosenblum, vice president of University Life. "The programs offer a systematic approach to welcoming diversity and addressing controversial issues both in and outside the classroom."
Register for the workshops by Monday, May 15, by contacting Webster at x32380.

Millard will plead not guilty to Bosma murder charge, lawyer says
Christina Commisso, CTV Toronto
Published Wednesday, May 15, 2013 6:44AM EDT
Last Updated Wednesday, May 15, 2013 6:49PM EDT
The lawyer representing a Toronto man charged with first-degree murder in the death of Timothy Bosma says his client intends to plead not guilty. Meanwhile the wife of Bosma says she is "broken" following her husband's horrific death.
Deepak Paradkar told reporters Wednesday that once the other suspects wanted in the Bosma investigation are apprehended, "you'll get a fuller picture of what's going on."
"There is a story behind this which I can't get into," Paradkar said outside a Hamilton court, shortly after his client Dellen Millard was charged with first degree murder. "Obviously it's more than it appears to be."
Paradkar said Millard is exercising his right to remain silent.
"Often, even an innocent person will remain silent for obvious reasons," Paradkar said. "Something they might say or do inadvertently, they might find themselves in trouble, even having been innocent."
Asked if Millard plans to help police in their search for at least two other suspects wanted in connection with the investigation of Bosma's death, Paradkar said, "We're leaving it to police."
Bosma, a 32-year-old married father of one, disappeared on May 6 after leaving his Ancaster, Ont., home with two strangers for a test drive of a pickup truck he was selling.
When Bosma failed to return home, police launched a widespread search that took them throughout southern Ontario. On Tuesday police announced Bosma's burned remains had been located in the Waterloo area. Police said Bosma was likely murdered shortly after heading out for the drive.
On Saturday Millard was arrested and charged with forcible confinement and theft over $5,000 in connection to Bosma's disappearance. After confirming Bosma's death, Hamilton police announced they would also lay a murder charge against the 27-year-old.
Millard made a brief appearance in a Hamilton court Wednesday morning, where he was formally charged. Sporting a white dress shirt and dress pants, Millard listened attentively and only spoke to say his name.
His next court appearance is scheduled for June 13, where he is slated to appear via video link.
Bosma's widow speaks
Later on Wednesday, Bosma's wife, Sharlene, tearfully spoke to the media, saying that she is "broken" by the death of her husband.
"Yesterday was the most horrifying day of my life … and people tell me that I have been so strong. And all I know is that I have a beautiful two-year-old girl at home, who now needs her mummy more than ever," she said tearfully from Ancaster, Ont. "I know I cannot fall apart. But I am broken because part of me is gone."
With family standing behind her, she thanked police, the community and the media for their support.
She added that she will work to keep her husband's memory alive and make sure her daughter grows up knowing how much her father loved her.
"Tim will always be loved and he will always be remembered … I love you Tim," she said.
A trust account to make donations to Sharlene Bosma and her daughter has been set up at TD Canada Trust.
Donations can be made in person, via telephone or online.
The account number is 6332096 and the branch number is 2047.
Defence lawyer: Suspect was not 'hurting financially'
Paradkar said the charges against Millard are completely out of character and noted: "He's not someone who's arrogant or one of these rich brat kids. I would not describe him like that at all."
He added that his client's finances were in good shape.
"He's not in debt, he owns a number of properties which are paid for. He was not hurting financially. The police have confirmed he had sufficient funds to easily purchase this truck if he wished to do so," Paradkar said. "Why would this have happened given his financial circumstances?"
Millard's grandfather founded Millardair, a charter airline and storage company, in the 1960s. Millard took over the family company after his father's death last year.
Millard wrote an obituary for his father, stating that his dad "believed we can make a difference in the world. With Wayne in my heart, I believe we must." In the obituary, Millard said he carried his father's pilot's licence with him.
Police said they believe that Bosma was targeted, but are unsure why. The exact cause of his death has yet to be determined.
More suspects sought
At least two other suspects are being sought in the investigation.
Investigators said another suspect went on the test drive with Bosma.
He is described as white with a medium build. He is approximately five-foot-nine inches tall with dark hair and he was last seen wearing a red hooded sweatshirt with a hood pulled over his head.
Police also said a second vehicle followed Bosma's truck during the test drive, but investigators are unsure of how many people were in that vehicle.

In a bid to give Google and Facebook a kicking, Yahoo, Microsoft and AOL have set up an advertising partnership to attempt to restore the balance of power against the other evil empires.
Reuters reports the alliance allows each of the companies to sell each other's unsold premium advertising inventory and display ads. It should be in action by next year.
Display units make a lot of cash. They are the big ones that appear on web pages and attract marketers interested in branding their products or services.
Rik van der Kooi, corporate vice president of the Microsoft Advertising Business Group claimed that the partnership was a "rising tide that lifts all boats" which we guess is a bit like a rolling stone gathering no moss.
The move has some support from the big advertising outfits. Nick Beil, president of the VivaKi Nerve Center, part of the advertising holding firm Publicis Groupe SA told Reuters that the deal was important.
He said that the alliance was attractive because it broadens the potential reach of brand advertisers.
However, structurally it is a bit odd. While they are striking a partnership and sipping from the same milkshake using several straws they are still competing with each other for both advertiser spending and publisher partners.
Yahoo, AOL and Microsoft executives said they are not expecting any mutterings from the Department of Justice, which could potentially frown upon the partnership because it could reduce competition or knock ad pricing.
This is because competition between all the players will increase and it will, in theory, give Google and Facebook a run for their money.
AOL, Microsoft and Yahoo are currently expected to lose share in the advertising market, with Facebook expected to surpass Yahoo for the first time this year.

National Volunteer Week
Give Something Back:
National Volunteer Week, which is in its 72nd year, is celebrated from April 6th ? 12th, 2014. Currently there are over thirteen million individuals volunteering their time in our country. This week offers us the opportunity to celebrate and thank them for the vital contribution they make to our communities. Historically, volunteers have always played an essential role at Children?s Aid Societies. At Highland Shores Children?s Aid which serves Hastings, Northumberland and Prince Edward counties, our volunteers assist in a variety of important ways. ?Our volunteers make a difference in the lives of the families and children we serve. They may volunteer as a driver, work with a youth in care, offer their expertise as a Board or committee member, or assist with the planning or execution of a fundraising event. Each volunteer is important to our Society and their contributions are vital to helping us be successful in the work that we do?, said Cynthia Robertson, Supervisor, Resources for Highland Shores Children?s Aid. Last fiscal year, over 60 volunteers gave of their time to the Society. Volunteer drivers logged over 646,000 kms as they served families in the Counties of Hastings, Northumberland and Prince Edward. We thank our many volunteers for their contribution to the work of our agency and we are proud to recognize them this week and in the future. If you would like more information about how you can make a difference by volunteering with the Society, contact Cynthia Robertson at 905-372-1821, ext. 2600 (Centalized Screening.)

The internet is home to a lot of questionably legal breakbeat collections like Drumaddikt and Cyberworm's Sample Blog. "Cold Sweat" by James Brown is always included in these collections. It's beloved equally by hip-hop and drum n bass producers. The break is at 4:30.
There's probably a whole generation of producers who have sliced and diced this beat without having heard the actual song. I'm sure the same is true of "The Funky Drummer" and "Apache." Beyond the break, "Cold Sweat" is a remarkable piece of music, way out ahead of its time. On James Brown's album of the same name, it's sitting alongside jazz standards like "Nature Boy" and some boilerplate blues and R&B. Compared to those more traditional songs, "Cold Sweat" sounds like it belongs in another era entirely. It has a radically simple two-chord structure and an African-influenced intricacy to its rhythmic groove, and it still sounds pretty fresh more than thirty years later.
"Cold Sweat" was written by the Famous Flames' bandleader Pee Wee Ellis, seeded by a bassline James Brown came up with vocally. Ellis says he got his horn line from "So What" by Miles Davis, which has been the basis for many other tunes as well. Hear a mashup of "Cold Sweat" with "So What" and other related tunes.
As befits a song based on a musical quotation, "Cold Sweat" has been sampled widely. Here's a sample map; click to see it bigger.
"Cold Sweat" has been a particularly rich source of inspiration for Public Enemy — they sample it on "How to Kill a Radio Consultant," "Prophets of Rage" and "Welcome To The Terrordome."
"Welcome To The Terrordome" is an unusually dense web of samples, even by Public Enemy standards. It includes several other James Brown samples, including "Give It Up Or Turnit A-Loose," "Get Up, Get into It, Get Involved" and "Soul Power." And "Welcome To The Terrordome" has itself been sampled and quoted many times, by KRS-One, Non Phixion and Ice Cube, among others.
"Cold Sweat" is so influential that Mongo Santamaria's cover version spawned a hot breakbeat of its own. It's at 2:21.
RJD2, composer of the Mad Men theme song, uses Mongo Santamaria's beat in "The Chicken-Bone Circuit."
Ultramagnetic MCs love "Cold Sweat" almost as much as Public Enemy. They use the James Brown version on "Kool Keith Housing Things."
And they use the Mongo Santamaria version in "Feelin' It."
Finally, I myself use the Cold Sweat break in the first track from my forthcoming Delia Derbyshire remix project.

Here's how to program the Cold Sweat break on a drum machine. Give the drummer some!

Well I don't mind pull-ups which lead to a build completing but resulting in a kernel which crashes & burns. In fact, there are days when I prefer that. :-) OTOH, maybe the practice of adding some degree of warning like "untested, but {might build,does build}" to the commit message could be useful -- who knows? That's for you guys to figure out amongst yourselves, but everyone who tracks the latest stuff in CVS should be prepared for some degree of risk of everything from simple build failure to outright disaster. > Using -current as of ~may 8th should do the trick with the MP branch > should do the trick.

Band of 1000 Dances[CD]
~ Grand Wazoo
Product Notes
GRAND WAZOO : Australia's 'Kings of Soul' is a legendary 13 piece Soul Orchestra, with an unsurpassed record for presenting the finest, most entertaining and authentic Soul Music experience in Australia, continuously, since 1981. The band performs Afro-American soul gems, hits and some Grand WaZoo band originals in that same brassy, big-soul style. Also a premium reading band, the outfit can back any local or international visiting artist, in the vein of the Funk Bros. Australia's 'Ambassador of Soul', JOHN MONTESANTE, a renowned Musician, founded Grand WaZoo in 1981, with a view to exposing the Australian public to an artform about which he was passionate-and the band has performed continuously since. Montesante's talent as a world-respected Arranger has been a key factor in Grand Wazoo's musical excellence and longevity, with all 300+ tunes performed by the band, especially orchestrated by him. GRAND WAZOO's Gigs over more than 30 years have varied from Media Appearances and Concerts, to Festivals, Corporate Showcases to Major Events, to Club & Pub Residencies, to backing Sam & Dave and performing with the Wilson Pickett Band, to the Hong Kong 2000 Millennium and more.... Many of the who's who of Australian music have been nurtured by, performed with, or been backed by this band, at some time in their career. Fronted by 3 Lead Singers, (who also back one another), a permanent 6 piece Horn Section and 4 Rhythm players, the Grand WaZoo 'Soul Extravaganza' comprises 2 x 1 hour sets with interval and encore, although the Band is flexible for Festivals, Special Events and Media Appearances & has mastered the art of adapting to various sized spaces. GRAND WAZOO-KINGS OF SOUL also released a 'LIVE - one take' album in 2008, titled 'SOUL MONSTER-LIVE', which celebrated an 11 year weekly residency at The Rainbow, and is also available through CD Baby. There are plans for another album in 2013 Grand WaZoo - when only the 'best' will do!

United front: Paul Simon and Edie Brickell post new duet
This April 2, 2012 photo shows singer Paul Simon performing at "A Celebration of Paul Newman's Dream" to benefit "SeriousFun" an association of Hole in the Wall Camps at Avery Fisher Hall in New York. (AP Photo/Evan Agostini)
BANG Showbiz
Published Thursday, May 1, 2014 12:11PM EDT
Paul Simon and Edie Brickell have posted a duet together - days after they were both arrested for a domestic dispute.
The Simon and Garfunkel legend and his singing spouse hinted at a reconciliation by singing about their love on a new track, 'Like to Get to Know You', which was shared on Edie's SoundCloud page.
The married musicians croon in unison: "I wouldn't trade places with anyone, none of them, 'cos I'd like to get to know you again."
The united front comes after police officers arrested the couple at their Connecticut home on Saturday for disorderly conduct.
In court on Monday, Paul, 72, and Edie, 48, insisted their dispute was a minor disagreement and they have never lashed out at each other like that before.
Edie said in her statement: "I got my feelings hurt and I picked a fight with my husband. The police called it disorderly. Thank god it's orderly now."
The folk singer - who has three children, Adrian, Lulu and Gabriel, with her husband of 22 years - added that Paul was "no threat to her at all".
In his statement, Paul echoed his wife's sentiments, saying: "We had an argument, which is atypical of us. Neither of us has any fear, or any reason to be threatened - we love each other."
The pair left Connecticut's Norwalk Superior Court hand-in-hand after appearing before a judge.
They are due in court again on May 16.

Adventure Series: The Grandest of Snowfalls
Posted on Wednesday, May 3, 2017 at 7:21 PM MST
In January, 2017, a strong storm system dropped over 2 feet of snow across northern Arizona, including Flagstaff, the Grand Canyon, and the Mogollon Rim. Seeing one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World is gorgeous enough on a normal day, but under a fresh blanket of snow is downright breathtaking. Enjoy the journey.

Posted on Sunday, April 23, 2017 at 3:48 PM MST
I am extremely excited to announce that after being such a success last year, the Adventure Series will be returning starting this summer. We will be pushing deeper into the backcountry, and will be exploring more states, more countries, and more corners of Arizona.
The list is not yet finalized, but I think you'll really enjoy what I've got planned so far.

Adventure Series, Episode 4: Taming Sedona's Backcountry
Posted on Monday, August 22, 2016 at 10:06 AM MST
Towering cliffs, stunning vistas, and red rocks. Sedona's backcountry reminds us of a time when cowboys and outlaws ruled the wild, wild west, especially when you see places like Robber's Roost and Devil's Bridge. In a backcountry that's well-known for its terrible roads it is hard to ignore that tug. The tug that makes us push ourselves out of our comfort zone, further off the beaten path, and deeper into some of the most breathtaking backcountry in the southwest.

Adventure Series Episode 3: Sycamore Canyon/Perkinsville Road
Posted on Tuesday, July 12, 2016 at 12:06 PM MST
Nestled deep in the Kaibab, Prescott, and Coconino National Forests, Sycamore Canyon is one of the few pristine and untouched environments left today. In 1972, Sycamore Canyon was the first area designated as a Wilderness Area by the State of Arizona, so there are no roads, hiking trails, or crowds inside the canyon. The walls of the canyon are marked by colorful cliffs, soaring pinnacles, and a desert riparian area, making it one of the world's rarest habitats. The road to Sycamore Point is a 5 mile long gnarly, beat up road impassable in all vehicles except 4x4's, but if you're willing to push the envelope and explore a little, you will be greatly rewarded for your efforts. We then top it all off with a drive down Perkinsville Road, which offers stunning vistas of landscapes ranging from 3,500 to over 7,000 feet elevation, but is certainly not for the faint of heart.
I apologize for the shaky video in places. Even the best anti-shake in the world would have been no match for those gnarly, unmaintained back roads.

"Go west, young man." – Horace Greeley
So I have a confession to make. Contrary to popular belief I do not spend all my time working on perfecting Eat The District. I have a full-time job (pause to let that bombshell sink in). And as luck would have it early this week I was fortunate enough to get to travel out west for a meeting at Facebook HQ. I'm not going to talk about why I was there or what I learned, but I will tell you about how I ate. Don't worry: I was assured that this was okay and not part of the NDA I signed.
Facebook's new Menlo Park campus is amazing. Mashable had a great write up of Facebook's new digs, so I won't go into in too much detail. And to answer your question, yes I saw Mark Zuckerberg (it was through a window) and no I didn't get a picture. The food situation at Facebook is enviable. There are two major cafeterias that serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner gratis to employees and visitors. There are also countless micro kitchens, which have a fantastic array of sodas, coffees, juices, teas, cereals, chips, snacks, fruit, candy, etc. etc.
The food itself was quite good. Everyday they post the menus on Facebook (surprise surprise). We ate lunch and breakfast at Cafe Epic, which was indeed epic. The cafeteria has hot food, a salad bar, and a sandwich bar, in addition to soups and pastries and other delectables. I went with Mongolian chicken, fried rice, lo mein, and a small tuna fish sandwich (I had to try the tuna, one of my favorite sandwich fillings). The tuna was the standout, with fresh bread and a hint of sweetness. To drink I had chocolate milk, which really took me back to high school lunch. The sheer array of options were overwhelming. While I enjoyed what I ate, I did have a twinge of buyer's remorse looking around at what everyone else got. To be fair, this would have been true no matter what I got and no matter how good it was.
For breakfast the next morning, I knew right away that I was craving a breakfast sandwich. Again, Facebook's abundance of food options made this possible. I grabbed a poppy seed bagel, some bacon, some scrambled egg whites, and a little shredded cheddar cheese and threw together a mean bacon, egg, and cheese bagel sandwich. On top of that I had a mango madness smoothie, and I was good to go for the rest of the morning. Of the two meals I ate there, breakfast was definitely my favorite, although to be fair I'm partialto breakfast anyway.
The coffee didn't disappoint either. If you ever get the opportunity to visit Facebook make sure you get some coffee courtesy of Philz Coffee. Coming in multiple different varieties this freshly brewed, extremely rich and strong coffee kept us going through two days of meetings.
As if working at Facebook wasn't cool enough to begin with, the cafeteria system they have set up is amazing. There's no need to debate with co-workers about where you're going: the choice is as simple as Cafe Epic or Cafe 18. There's plenty of seating (both indoor and out) and the atmosphere is both fun and collegial. Facebook has done a lot of things well, and treating their employees to three meals a day is certainly one of them.

As a Firefox user and blogger, I realized that the best way to be more efficient was to find useful add-ons for the Mozilla Web browser.
After trying a variety of Firefox extensions, I've found Top 5 that do a fine job of making my blogging more productive.
# Zemanta: Zemanta is simply fantastic. As you write a blog post, it automatically finds and delivers content suggestions relevant to the blog text. So if you're writing about the iPhone, Zemanta will find images, links, and articles on the Web that are relevant to the device. If you like what you see, you can quickly add that to your post with a single click. Zemanta is a must-have. It's as simple as that.
Link – Zemanta
# WebMynd: If you have a list of sites that you always consult when performing research for a blog post, WebMynd is for you. Once installed, it adds a sidebar to Google Search results containing all the relevant results from sites you frequent, like Wikipedia and Digg. It then records what you've clicked on so you can easily go back to it at a later time. Not all sites are supported, unfortunately, but I think that you'll quickly learn that finding the most relevant results is much easier with the help of WebMynd.
Link – WebMynd
# Surf Canyon: When you research a post on Google, Yahoo, or Live Search, chances are that you might be missing some relevant links on pages that are lower in the search results. That's where Surf Canyon comes in. It analyzes your query and searches deep into results to find all the pages that best match it. I've used it on multiple occasions. Almost every time, Surf Canyon returned outstanding results. I highly recommend it.
Link – Surf Canyon
# SearchStatus: SearchStatus gives you all the information you need to determine your Google PageRank, Alexa rank, Compete ranking, and SEOmoz Linkscape MozRank. It also provides a keyword density analyzer and backward link information. If you want your blog to grow, SearchStatus is worth using.
