Thinking Right's weekend free-for-all. Pick a topic:
● The extremist band seizing bank-owned homes around metro Atlanta, along with the scattering of radicals who join or aid al-Qaida, is a reminder that the nation harbors those who enjoy its freedom and liberty while hating us. Constantly preach to people that they are victims of the majority, of the rich, of Wall Street, of banks, or of greedy corporate executives forcing high-interest loans on subprime borrowers — and those chickens come home to roost.
● Cheers for Gov. Sonny Perdue. The investigation of CRCT cheating in Atlanta public schools is now where it belongs — at the state level. The problem before was that everybody in an oversight role, ranging from administrators to the school board to the local chamber of commerce, had a stake in containing the system's bad press.
● Shhhh! Don't ask where the vanished students went. As the AJC reports, in another in-depth analysis of a problem in the Atlanta school system, there may be a link between a dramatically improved high school graduation rate and disappeared "transfers" who aren't counted as dropouts. Don't ask, don't tell.
● Scholar Peter Ferrara, an entitlement and budget policy expert, has taken the bait — that is, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's advice to pass ObamaCare so we can all find out what's in it. Writes Ferrara in The American Spectator: "The bottom line is that you will lose your health care under this legislation, if not your job, your country as they bankrupt America, and maybe ultimately your life or the life of a loved one. All that to make dreamy, emotionalized, liberals happy, even though many of them are not happy because the socialism in the bill is not overt enough. Moreover, the promises made to the American people to pass the bill are shown in the study [he has done for the Heartland Institute] to be thoroughly false." For the old folks, cuts in Medicare reimbursements will ultimately drop to a third of that provided by private insurance and half that provided by Medicaid, the government pay plan for the poor. Conservatives' every health care policy-framing hour should be spent devising ways to dismantle it and to eliminate the 159 bureaucracies and programs it creates.
● Headline: "Companies hold on to cash." Subhead: "Despite profits resulting from cutbacks, hiring is not skyrocketing." Be honest. If you owned a business, would you add permanent employees now, uncertain as we all are about what this administration and this Congress will do next? Me neither. Another headline, same page: "Deflation is the worry; inflation looms, too."
● Elected officials in Fulton and DeKalb say they'll fight the proposed 1-cent sales tax increase unless Cobb, Gwinnett, Cherokee and others in the proposed metro Atlanta sales tax region kick in extra money for transit. Look, years ago voters in Fulton and DeKalb made a free-will choice to spend 1 cent, much of which they thought came from "outsiders," on transit — and for decades they have enjoyed two-county transit service. Other counties chose to impose a 1-cent sales tax for roads, their preferred approach to congestion relief. Neither is morally superior and neither gives any county the right or authority to dictate what others should do. Get off your high horse.
● On this, Bubba Barnes is closer to right than is Real Deal. With the lottery and investments in this economy, Georgia has gambling aplenty. It continues to fascinate that whether Democrats or Republicans are in power, some proposals — casino gambling, horse racing or a sales tax on services, for example — never go away.

As a long term high school teacher, I know the games that administrators play with the body count. If a kid shows up to leave school, he is asked if he is transferring, taking adult night classes, or studing for his GED. Kids feel bad about dropping out, so they often reply yes and school officials smile and place him in the proper catagory. Wink, wink, nudge, nudge, nod, nod, Nope, that kid didn't drop out..

Jim…who the blue hell is this Jim Jr. guy?? Howard Dean on steroids?? What an absolute moron. The only negative things I have to say about the GOP is I wish they'd fight Democ-rats and liberalism as much as they fight Islamic terrorists. Don't they see that the Democrat Party is a greater threat to this country than those guys?? I'm still mad at Bush 41 for giving us 8 years of Bill Clinton, furious at "W" Bush for the Democ-rats gaining control of Congress and I blame John McCain for handing the keys to the election to Imam Barack Hoover Obama. Republicans need to remember this saying: Democrats and rattlesnakes have one thing in common–if you try to pet them and be nice to them, you're gonna get bitten badly!!!!!

One thing about the lack of investment to expand a business's growth: Even if the tax rates are raised on businesses (which they haven't been; remember the state and federal tax cuts, esp for those over $250K), won't a business owner need to expand sales to keep or increase their profits? If someone makes a certain amount (wages or profit), and the taxes are increased (alledged less profit or wages), won't a profitable business need more income/sales to raise their profit/income? The American people have turned into a bunch of whiners! Take charge and make the hard decisions. Besides if you elect to close your business, where are you going to get a job (as a fail business owner) and support yourselves?

Good morning, Jim,
Too bad, "Silly" Sonny and "Klassy" Kathy didn't realize that if they were going to place their faith and hope in the "lord god" of public education…the high stakes standardized tests…it should have been the "state's" responsibility to administer them! They could have used state department of education employees, upper-level undergraduate teacher education majors from the state colleges and universities, and members of the General Assembly (what few who can read) to have served as test proctors. Even most fools know that "you don't leave the fox to guard the hen house!"
As far as "king" Roy and "the real" Deal, thus far, I am NOT impressed. Keep the jar of Vaseline handy.

Jim Jr., Your post is much too long for a comment, but props to the AJC for allowing it to be posted in its entirety. Obviously most Republicans are too dug in to read it, much less believe it, but hopefully a few independents will be concerned enough to start thinking for themselves. It doesn't take much effort to find the data that proves the middle class has been shattered by trickle down economics and globalization.

Mr. Wooten, you have written some disgusting things before, but this is beyond the pale.
Comparing criminals and murderous terrorists with hard-working, decent middle class Americans who decry a burgeoning American plutocracy is now part and parcel of your ideology driven attacks?
If you had any pride, you would be thoroughly ashamed of writing such trash.
August 20th, 2010
8:35 am
I thought Wooten was for DADT?
Solving MARTAs problem is easy. Double the fee for suburbanites pay to use it. Charge GRTA and Gwinnett a 'fee' (republicans love fees, hate taxes) to wheel those large buses through downtown. They hog 2 lanes of traffic on Peachtree and contribute more to congestion. Dedicate that money to MARTA infrastructure and problem solved.
Hilarious how Wooten rails weekly against welfare, but has not problem with folks using public transit that others pay for. The fare they pay doesn't come close to the cost to maintain the service.

There is and hasn't been any !% tax paid by all counties except Fulton and DeKalb. (unless I took a longer nap than I realized).

Help me understand this.
Republican newspaper writers and radio/tv entertainers and Nathan Deal say that they don't know if President Obama is a US citizen because he won't prove that he is. Deal goes on to state that doubts could be cleared up if he would show him proof.
Nathan Deal will not release his tax returns. Concerns about his possible illegal profits from his role as a Congressman could possibly be cleared up if he would release his tax returns.
Why do you think Nathan Deal believes that releasing paper work by the President is important but releasing paper work by Congressman Deal is not important?
Me too !

"Be honest. If you owned a business, would you add permanent employees now, uncertain as we all are about what this administration and this Congress will do next?"
I would not add permanent employees unless I needed them. I would be hesitant, but less over uncertainty about what government will do, but uncertainty over what my customers will do.
August 20th, 2010
1:22 pm
That was rather awkwardly worded. What I mean is I'm more worried about the market I serve than the government.

"Get off your High Horse"
Are you talking to Fulton & Dekalb or Cobb, Cherokee, & Gwinnett?
I don't see anyone on a high horse here, just counties trying to do what is best for their citizens. My own opinion (just that, not a high horse) is that the Atlanta regions suffers without a whole region transit plan. The piecemeal options we have now do a disservice to the region as a whole.
Now, the upcoming possibility of the one-cent vote on transit for the region has some good potential to help the region, but I fear that the standard "we don"t want to apy for that!" mentality will take over and the region will regress even more.
I'm not sure where you're getting the fact that outlying counties already have a one-cent tax for transit that they use for roads. I must have missed that when everyone was talking about how only Fulton & Dekalb have the one-cent tax.

Try a nap after your Friday night binge-drinking before posting that nonsense @ 8:17am! You are just another Liberal Loon attacking the messenger. Comparing "America hating radicals" who use our freedoms against us is not the same as comparing their acts of defiance against the establishment or, in the case of al-Qaida, violent acts.
Neither of the groups is, as you assert, "hard-working, decent middle class Americans who decry a burgeoning American plutocracy".
August 21st, 2010
1:26 pm
Casually Obsessed, brilliant retort. And I loved the plethora of facts, etc to bolster your insult-laden and childish response.
And I can only surmise that Mr. Wooten appreciates you being one of his attack dogs.
"…victims of the majority, of the rich, of Wall Street, of banks, or of greedy corporate executives forcing high-interest loans on subprime borrowers…"
Have you been living under a rock for the past three decades? Or are you drowning in Wall Street Kool Aid?
From 1995 – 2005 CEO pay went up 240%, Go ahead and take a wild guess, oh defender of the middle class, how much the American worker's pay went up during that time? 4%.
82% of Americans think corporations have too much control and power, both over the nation and over their personal lives. The only question is who the hell are the 18% who don't, and are you among them?
I could post facts, figures, data and links all day long citing an exploding and devastating corporate crime wave in this country to corroborate the claim that the United States of America is now a de facto and de jure oligarchy/plutocracy. And you would not read any of it. In fact, I suppose you don't even acknowledge that these Titans of Malfeasance and Criminal Negligence even exist do you? And if so, their role in the current War on the Middle Class is of no concern.
Corporate Personhood. Massive corporate subsides, handout, giveaways and bailouts. We the People's blood-soaked and sacred sovereignty sold off to the highest bidder whether on Wall Street or in Chine. And as long as your portfolio shows a nice rate of return, you don;'t care, do you?
It doesn't matter if you do or not, because every week, every month and every year, I read where yet more Americans are FINALLY waking up to this irrefutable fact. (The only silver lining to the debacle called the Bush administration?).
The only question is when are the people who built this country finally gonna stand up to the lackeys in Washington, Atlanta and elsewhere and their corporate paymasters and say no more.
Shuck and grin for them if you choose, self-righteous one, but your kids are gonna hate you.

I guess I am puzzled by the class warfare that the Democrats are spurring on. Isn't it the American dream to get a good education, work hard and make something of yourself? But, if you do that now, you are a robber baron, akin to pond scum. I guess that is, unless you support 4 or 5 indigent families. I don't think middle class families need money given them, but we have a large and ever growing entitlement culture to which I believe Wooten is referring. Like the people who fight to get online for section 8 housing, and people who stand knee deep in water during Katrina, waiting for their helicopter ride. The sense of personal responsibility for your life seems to be eroding, and at an ever faster rate.

Sandra, honey, the Democrats aren't spurring on the class warfare, the Republicans have been conducting a full on assault on the middle class since Reagan. AmVet is giving you the casualty report. The Democrats are trying to restore the American Dream that the Republicans are killing. Please, sweetie, turn off the right wing media and sit down at your computer and honestly try to figure out what is happening to the middle class. I don't like Section 8 housing, don't support giving money to indigent families, or the entitlement culture either. However, Republicans have had a big hand in this, too. Don't believe me, Google "Chambliss 1998 "bullying tactics" Chambliss and Republicans have consistently blocked the simplest way to stop illegal immigrants, targeting the people who hire them.
Still, all those issues are chump change compared to the massive transfer of wealth from the working and middle classes to the top 1%. You could start by reading "The Spirit Level, Why More Equal Societies Almost Always Do Better." For the sake of your children and grandchildren, I hope you do.
August 22nd, 2010

Viet vet, show us a more equal society that has helped more people than this mean country, USA. How do you transfer wealth from someone who has no wealth to transfer ?

"The Democrats are trying to restore the American Dream that the Republicans are killing."
Oh man, you libtards kill me. HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!
Okay breathe, breathe, breathe…. calm down. Okay….
The US trade deficit widened sharply in June to the highest level in 20 months on rising imports from China, and waning exports, the government said last week." You can thank Bill Clinton for signing NAFTA, liberals.
"Jobless millions signal death of the American dream for many – Even the criminals have fallen on hard times in America's poorest city as the long-term unemployed struggle to keep a grasp on normality." Leave it to main stream medai bed wetting liberals to be concerned about the well being of criminals.
"Iran unveils 'ambassador of death' bomber." Nothing to see here, liberals. Bushie and Shotgun Cheney are out of office Everything is fine now. Move along.
"Former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich said Sunday that he would call a host of high-profile witnesses — including White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel — to testify if he is retried on corruption charges." Oh, PLEASE say that will Let's get these Chicago goons one by one.How many of you liberals knew that Rahm worked for the Israeli Army for a short volunteer stint? Thought not. If Rove had worked with the Isreali Army, I'm sure you liberals would have been all over it. (According to the Israeli hating liberal Obama voters, the Israeli Army murders Palestinians.)
"Everybody makes mistakes, including reporters from the nation's most prestigious newspaper, The New York Times. The New York Times's Helene Cooper had her goof Wednesday night when she misidentified Sen. Bill Nelson in a report from President Obama's Miami fundraiser, calling him Sen. Ben Nelson. She also said that POTUS was the one with the wrong name, not her." The Poor New York Slimes. Down in the dumps in circulation and now down in the dumps with a drunkard reporter. The Slimes hasn't been a respectible news rag outside of the liberal world since the early 1970s.
"Democratic Sen. Reid: 'Build mosque elsewhere.'" Must be a last ditch attempt at saving his career, even though he knows Nevadans are going to kick him out in about, say, two and a half months.
"The Obama family will began their sixth holiday of the year on Friday, an 11-day sojourn in Martha's Vineyard, the island destination of the wealthy and well-connected American elite." Democrats for the working common man. Yeah right. What else is new. But the longer he's out of the White House, the less damage can be done to this nation even though the Pelosicrats are still bungling things up as well.
"WASHINGTON (AP) — Layoffs are back, and that's bad news for the fragile economic recovery.New applications for unemployment benefits hit a nine-month high last week — a spike that suggests private employers may shed jobs this month for the first time this year." Sure am glad thaat trillion dollar stimulus bill rammed through Congress last year that nobody read is working and "saving and creating jobs." Must still be Bush's fault.
But the bottom line here is that I don't blame Democrat pundits like Ms. Tucker writing about everything BUT their own ilk running Washington. They'll talk and whine about Conservatives, Palin, the Tea Party, Fox News, Rush Limbaugh, and just about anything else but the very people they elected and are allegedly so proud of. So proud in fact they are of their elected ilk that their tail wags the dog and attempts to deflect any negative facts about the current failures of Democrat rule.

Bob, If you had investigated the book I mentioned you would have found that in Western Europe and the USA health and happiness are strongly correlated with more income equality. And not just for the lower classes, but all classes. This isn't about right vs left, conservative vs liberal, this is about smart vs dumb, effective vs ineffective. I wish you had looked it up instead of just firing off a rebuttal, especially since it dishonestly implied I called this nation "mean." I'm a patriotic, taxpaying who loved his country enough to risk his life in war, which is more than 90% of the people in Congress can say.
And Carpet Kitten, "BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!" is only a rebuttal in kindergarden. Seriously. And cutting and pasting unrelated news items and then making snarky comments isn't very much better. Aren't some of you conservatives just a little embarrassed?

Americans are demonstrating at the site of a proposed Mosque at ground zero and throughout our beloved country. On one hand, there are nontraditional Americans born and naturalized who believe in the declaration of independence and the constitution of the united states. They support the building of a Mosque at ground zero.
On the other hand, we have traditional Americans who believe in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States as written by the Founding Fathers. They oppose the building of a Mosque at ground zero.

Topic - Climb Like a Girl - Part 2
UKC News - on 13 Apr 2005
"Go to some climbing websites and behind a veil of anonymity on the very public internet you will witness long threads containing images of 'Hot Babes Who Climb' where women are rated on a scale of 1 to 10 and labeled as hot or not, minger or babe, as regards whether the expression of their genes conforms to a notion of beauty perpetrated by society. The mob mentality is always cruel and heartless."
In this second part of Climb Like A Girl, Mick Ryan takes a look at the womens rights movement of the Sixties and its effect on climbing. He introduces Bev Johnson one of Lynn Hill's role models, takes a look at the modern climbing feminist Tori Allen and discusses grade-ism and how some male climbers feel threatened by women climbers.

It's hard to have a definitive horror hit in America. It's even harder to have a definitive horror franchise in America. And it's most difficult of all to create a franchise in a country other than America, one which has a distinct culture and flavor that doesn't translate easily, and have it become such a runaway success that the film is remade as an entirely new and successful remake series for American audiences. Takashi Shimizu is one of the few filmmakers who has been able to do it.
A movie that has the crew conflicted.
This week we discuss alchemy, camera technology, a first time guest host joins the show, and we review "As Above, So Below".

It appears that despite the incredulous whining and snarky commentary about Britain's MG being purchased by Nanjing and renamed Modern Gentleman, the Jiangsu, China based automaker has the best interests of MG in mind. They've been exceptionally careful stewards so far, quickly ramping up production in a huge, modern facility in China so that MGs could once again roll off the assembly line for the 60th anniversary of the brand. The familial MG homestead in Longbridge, UK has been reinvigorated as the UK and European headquarters for NAC MG. Cars will once again be manufactured in Longbridge, and the location will also play a role in R&D, engineering, workforce recruiting and of course, sales. Not only has the move garnered goodwill for the Chinese parent company, it shows that they're committed to MG and have a long term plan in mind.
Press release after the jump.
[Source: NAC]
NAC MG in the UK
May 29 th, Longbridge:
In a historic ceremony today, the media and VIP contingents from both the UK and China will witness the return of MG production to the Longbridge factory, the long-time home of this historic marque. Guest of honour will be Mr Liang Buo Hua, Governor of the Jiangsu Province in China where NAC MG is based and Mike Whitby, leader of Birmingham City Council.
Earlier today, Solicitor General Mike O'Brien, MP visited Longbridge, and personally handed over a letter of support from Deputy Prime Minister, John Prescott, on behalf of the British Government. Mr O'Brien met senior officials from NAC in the UK and China, as well as Mr Liang Buo Hua.
Since acquiring the assets of MGR Group in 2005, NAC has been devoted to developing the MG brand and MG products, initially in China and Britain.
In only one year NAC completed the construction of a huge, modern production facility in Nanjing and had its first MG cars rolling off the assembly line on 27 th March 2007 – which was also the date of the 60 th anniversary of the company. NAC is also proud to have won the award for the 'most attractive car' at the Shanghai Motor Show held in April 2007.
In the UK, NAC has been hard at work at the Longbridge plant; the production lines have been modified to allow the recommencement of manufacturing; a highly experienced management, engineering and production team is now in place, ready to re-launch MG into the marketplace later this year, initially with the famous TF sports car.
Longbridge is an essential part of the MG project. NAC fully understands that they need to keep the originality and Britishness of the brand and the UK is the only place where NAC can absorb the essence of British culture and transfer it into MG products.
The role of Longbridge will be as follows:
- R&D centre for MG
- Engineering & testing of MG models
- HR recruiting for China and Longbridge
- A purchasing and logistics centre for China and Longbridge
- Manufacturing base for the UK and European markets
- Sales & marketing base for the UK and Europe
Mike Whitby, Leader of Birmingham City Council said: "Longbridge is part of the fabric of Birmingham's heritage and we are delighted that MG's will roll off the production line once again. "We have worked in close collaboration with NAC to bring about today's announcement. Two years ago, many people thought this day would never come. But as we celebrate a new era for Longbridge, I am delighted that NAC MG will breathe new life into this famous marque.
"This clearly shows Birmingham making the most of international investment, and I am proud of the part the City Council has played to bring it about."

charming serpents .c.If you thought I'd be okay with your musty bedroom eyes sweeping like the wind across my skin and leaving me breathless, waiting, missing you, you thought wrong. My hands are twisted in my lap and the braid you wove into my hair lies on my back like a bad mistake and darling, I can still taste you, sea salt and vanilla, on my breath. You've left me gasping, grasping at myself to keep the world from fading, but I refuse to need you the way you need me to.The leaky faucet in the hallowing corners of my mind clip clops like steel-toed horse shoes along the washboard in the gravel driveway. My knuckles are cracked and splintered, peeling away alongside the acrylic, eggshell paint. I am indifferent to the cold crawl of your hands along my spine and the hollow sunday good mornings. The walls are crumbling around our practiced game of cat and mouse, and I'm fever stricken for rolling thunder. I promise to live in this facade, if you promise to make me feel alive again.Make me feel you there
Dandelion Winethe dandelion has made its appealto wine and whimsy,but it's plucked-- regardless of nostalgia.[i am that lion's ragged blooms, and you are the strong winds that blow my meek seeds away, and he-- he is the brawny child pulling me like another weed passe. and there have been other gardeners with hands mortared in black veins by fertile soil, savaging between tame dalmatian tulips and mums the color of fat tabbies embellished by aureate mornings; there have always been these potted plants prettily set as if all of creation planned them so.]and its roots remain tuckedIn the good earth,flirting with raindrops and shelved reverie.[i am the pariah's cure-- tisane caught in the red dragon's talons and resting in the part of feathers bright on a charm of finches as their form shadows their flight overhead. i can be opium, and you and him are but another pair of flared-nostriled, flushed fools. the crescent moon lives in my eyes to cause yours mist. i am the apparition-- damned, as a sou
SurrogateI stopped using his full titlebecause it started sounding too formal,and it's hard to be standoffish with someonewho swaps albums and memories so generously,who loves German chocolate but hates the smell of oranges,who knows me by my boneless,drowsy form on the couch and by my words.And maybe one day he'll askme to drop the title altogether and call him Brad,but I won't.Because it sounds too much like dad,and I'm afraid of slipping up.
Origami Stars (C)I've kept every one of the origami stars you made in an empty glass Coke bottle, filling it to the brim over seven months of brief letters elegantly scribbled on delicate strips. My tiny paper galaxy sits between the empty velvet-lined box and the shattered picture frame, on top of my heavily-used thesaurus (you know how difficult it was to find words at times).The weatherman called for rain the day we met. You were static and sour limes and I almost couldn't swallow the lies you were spewing, but when you called me beautiful, I smelled cherries. And no, no, no, I'm not looking for love or even romance from you. I just want to feel human.Yet you taunt me, pheromone tendrils yankingon my conscience; those slips of paper werelove letters, but were they meant for me?There's a star overheadand it lookslike the twinkle in your eyewhen you're nervous,so be honest,darling--the letters I foundstuffed in a sockat the back
Lurking CobraI have to tell you the truth:there's a cobra lurking just beneath the skinand coiling through your veins."I love you" and "I'm sorry" and "Please, come home with me"drip like poison from your fangs.I know the weight of a lie, darling;I search for the scent of others of my sex in every shadowed corner;We cohabitate.I regularly check your sock drawer for love letters and ring boxes,for any sign that this isn't just another hunt for you,but I know it's the hunger talkingwhen you whisper those things late at night.The stitching on my heart is slowly unraveling,All my clumped-up stuffing flows out of me dying to escape;sometimes,I lose myself in the beat of your heartunder my skinand the sigh of my namefrom your pouting lips...but I don't remember leavingThat hickey on your chest.Maybe that's the crazy me talking.I've always heard them talk about the last threads of sanity;You are pushing pins and buttons farther than they should be pushed.How I can rearrange my face
Last One On Earth, Turn out The LightsViolet grass, coffee moon, death-scented airThe wind above moves starsbut down below is stillThe world is damp and treeless, lacking humansbut you and I and a thousand corpsesAnd snakes.Oh the snakescrawling through a grass minefieldStep carefullyTo whatever lies on the other side of nightI howl at the moonwretchedlywaiting for my mind to snap
After a Blue Sundayi.The week slips hardrolling in upon itselfto pull me under;hardly a victim, more so:a participant lackingii.I clutch at taupe walls,boring walls that do much morefor occupyinga hangover than breakingthe monotonyiii.The after-break, break:realizing my solitudeundoes me quickerthan your infidelity;than her scent on your body
stitched truthswith this pen (needle)i will sew your eyes shut (wide);(blinders in reverse).(light is a curse to the damned);writhe in these pains that are truths.
Dry SwallowYou have a nasty habitof touching me where it bleeds,ragged fingertips catchingrubbed-raw skin.There's no scab there;that wound has never healed,festering yellow and oozing pusand each morning breaksanother plastic seal,white bottles and tiny blue pillsleaving the bitter taste of almost-tragicon my tongue.Swallow dry;that stuck feeling passes,replaced by lethargyand the diluted memoriesof a time you made me happy,when each morning brokeunder a red sunset, the sheetsstrewn around us.It's fantasy now,but I still feel the weight of youduring quiet moments.

For a road course or max handling setup, use a 12:1 constant ratio Saginaw Model 800 power steering box with a firm road feel. The budget route is a 12:1 wrecking-yard box: For an S-10 with big wheels and tires, look for a box from an IROC-Z or Trans Am originally equipped with 16-inch wheels, circa '85 to '92. The code letter stamped on the box cover and/or the big aluminum plug on the bottom of the box should be WS. If you're bucks up, Lee Manufacturing can build you a custom, blueprinted box and a power steering pump with higher quality internal parts, any type of feel, and the exact stops needed for your custom application.
One final caution: An S-10 setup for optimum handling will no longer function well as a load-carrying pickup truck-but you knew that going in, right?

Stock GMC Blower Revisited
In reading your answer to Jeff Kopis about the suitability of installing a used, stock GMC 3-71 supercharger from a two-stroke diesel engine on a street gasoline-powered hot rod (Pit Stop, Nov. '10, "Stock GMC Blower"), the implication that the superchargers on the Jimmy diesel engines scavenge exhaust led me to believe that the exhaust actually goes through the supercharger, when in fact it pushes the exhaust out via bottom ports in the cylinder wall when the piston is at or near bottom dead center (BDC). These engines utilize an exhaust valve but no intake valve as they are a modified two-cycle engine. As in normal two-cycles, the intake air charge is introduced from crankcase pressure forcing the charge through BDC ports into the cylinder at the same time exhaust flows out the ports on the opposite side of the BDC stroke. The Jimmy engines are much the same; however, the supercharger puts a positive pressure on the BDC ports and forces the exhaust charge out the rapidly opening exhaust valve, at the same time putting a clean, ready-to-compress air charge in the cylinder.
S. Botten
Vashon, WA
D'oh: brain fade! Thanks to you and the numerous other readers (including Charles Powars, Susan Cooper, and Robert Rodieck) for setting me straight on this. To clarify, a stock GMC blower is used to help scavenge the exhaust, but it does this by introducing fresh intake air to help push the exhaust out, as noted above by Mr. Botten. But unlike its use in a typical hot rod gasoline four-stroke application, no fuel runs through the blower because the diesel used direct injection into the combustion chamber, plus the blower won't see vacuum before boost comes in. Therefore, although a used blower should not have been contaminated by exhaust gases as originally stated in my response, nearly all GMC supercharger experts maintain that the original bearings, seals, and internal clearances are still not correct out of the box to survive and build boost efficiently in a hot rod application. One person who begs to differ somewhat is old-timer Dean McCann, who sent me the following advice.
I was involved with GMC blowers in the early '50s and built my first unit for my flathead using a used 3-71, channel iron, and 1/2-inch steel plate. I must have done OK because I drove it for more than 40,000 miles. One pulley setup had 7 psi and the other had 12 psi (a little spark knock). I got the Power-Pack '55 and '56 Chevys regularly with my '40 Coupe.
I have found the following works well:
1.Two 1/2-inch V-belts will work fine on a 3-71 if you use a spring-loaded idler pulley like I got Cragar to incorporate with their units. Put the idler on the slack side, not the drive side.

I've rearranged my work schedule this summer so that I can come to your town.
've moved my Barbeque forecast from Fridays to Thursdays. I did this so I could get out on the road on Fridays and visit area towns during their community festivals. Many of the surrounding communities have great celebrations every summer and I want to do my weather forecast from these towns.
If your community has a special festival let me know. I can't guarantee that I'll be at every one but I will get to some of them. My e-mail is email@example.com.
Be sure to include what the festival is about, the date and the best place to do a Friday afternoon broadcast from. A contact person and a phone number would also be helpful. The more information the better.
I really think this could be a lot of fun. So bring on the warm weather and the funshine, hoping to see you soon.

Posted By Melissa Burdon On July 26, 2007 @ 10:00 am In Advertising,Customer Experience | 4 Comments
I grocery shop once a week and, although I'm never without my grocery list, there are always impulse items I buy for various reasons [1]. There are also those items on my list that I simply have never thought of purchasing online instead of at the grocery store; cleaning products, bath towels and light bulbs, for instance.
Now, I'm big on environmentally friendly products and I recycle as much as humanly possible, so I'd easily be attracted to a product such as biodegradable window/glass cleaner. The issue is that I'd never think of searching for this product online and I probably wouldn't even think about searching for that specific type of product at the grocery store. Still, I'd easily be sold on the stuff if it were effectively placed within my path while shopping.
Let's say you sell biodegradable window/glass cleaner online. There will only be a small number of individuals searching specifically for the product, or even generically by categories such as such as "environmentally friendly cleaning products." On the other hand, you'll attract far more targeted traffic by advertising on 'green community' blogs or message boards, or doing some banner advertising on industry-related (in this case "eco-friendly") websites.
If your website offers a commodity that's more likely to be purchased offline, you should always be looking for new places and ways to interact with potential customers. That's how to get the targeted traffic you might otherwise not get through search.

LTE Operator Strategies: Key Drivers, Deployment Strategies, CAPEX, OPEX, Price Plans, ARPUs and Service Revenues 2012 - 2016
- Language: English
- 357 Pages
- Published: March 2012
Carrier capital expenditure (Capex) is undergoing a dramatic transformation under the combined effect of factors ranging from demand for additional capacity to convergence and network evolution towards next-generation networks (NGNs). The analysis of operator capital spending and the assessment of the business opportunity for telecoms OEMs has traditionally been confined to carrier spending on network infrastructure. As the size and allocation of operator Capex shifts dramatically in response to industry dynamics, the Opex line item in operator's income statements has become a holy grail for vendors.
Today, mobile operators, for instance, spend three times more on Opex than Capex, or a total of US$400–500bn annually. Not all of that Opex spending is available to equipment suppliers and vendors, however. Although many operators have outsourced business functions such as IT, call centers, and other areas, Network Services is the focus of most of the outsourcing that pertains to the equipment supplier and vendor market. Today, Network Services is an US$80bn spending area; we believe that US$30–35bn of this is directly accessible by the major telecommunications vendors, like Ericsson, Alcatel-Lucent, Nokia-Siemens, Motorola, and their peers.
This 25-page study helps to quantify operator network capital and operating investments worldwide. It examines how network-related spending among different functions is allocated by operator type, mobile, wireline incumbent and wireline challenger. Conducted online, this survey of roughly 100 operator network executives offers critical insight into the priorities and needs fueling operator decision making and helps vendors stay competitive by diversifying services offerings and appealing to operator sensibilities.
Sample Survey Questions
We asked 25 questions, including the following:
- What % of Opex is allocated to Network Opex? How will Network Opex:Opex ratio change over the next three years?
- What % of network Opex is allocated to the operations and maintenance of the core network?
- What % of network Opex is allocated to maintenance services? How will maintenance Opex: network Opex change over the next three years?
- What % of maintenance expenditures is allocated to field maintenance, remote support, software updates, repair and replacement, and the management of spare parts?
- What % of network Opex is allocated to network optimization? How will it change over the next three years? Who conducts network optimization for your network?
Study results and analysis include:
- Raw data in Excel format
- 27 slide data presentation
The Demystifying Opex & Capex Budgets study provides quantitative intelligence on spending patterns of wireline and
mobile operators, offering insight into the overall market potential. The study supports business planning activities of
vendors and equipment manufacturers with direct insight from their operator customers. It draws upon hard facts
derived from the operator survey to provide the most accurate opportunity assessment.
This program assists vendors worldwide to:
- Quantify demand and operator spending by network area
- Identify the best opportunities to align capabilities and offers
- Develop more accurate forecasts to deploy resources and go-to-market execution
- Align service positioning and marketing with operators requirements
Survey Methodology
We conducted an online survey at the end of 2006. The purpose of the survey is to understand how operators allocate their network Opex and Capex among the different network functions identified by us.
The survey respondents were comprised of network executives in the operator community across the world and we have presented the responses as received. The survey included 25 questions. SHOW LESS READ MORE >

Barks Shacktown
- Continuing with a great wallop of Christmas from the vast collection of Bill Peckmann, he sends along another Carl Barks gem. A Christmas for Shacktown glows off the page, and I'm pleased as punch to post it here. Bill's introduction:
- What happens when you take Carl Barks at the height of his powers and combine him with that potent, powerful time of the year, Christmas? Why you get, 'A Christmas for Shacktown', that's what!
The magazine cover
The End
The original Dell Donald Duck '…Shacktown' comic book
hit the newsstands for Christmas of 1951. The story we
just posted was from a Gladstone Comics reprinted and
re-colored some years later. This editorial essay by noted
Carl Barks historian, Geoffrey Blum, was also in the Gladstone issue.
Thanks again, Bill.

This is cool.
I actually saw a reference to this particular story last week but didn't see anything more than a few pages of it.
There's a lot of good stuff on the Splog this week.
Thanks and Happy Holidays! Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah one and all!

If anyone is interested in searching for this, there is a story on how great of an inventor Carl Barks was. It focused on how ideas he came up with in the comics actually worked in real-life.
I'm behind today but it is worth looking into. I want to say it is one of those Slate articles or a scientific journal but its been a while since I read it.
One of the inventions was how to raise ships using balls of some sort to add buoyancy to a sunken ship. That should help narrow it down.

Uproot Overwhelm and Overeating and Unleash Your Inner Champion.
Maybe you are a busy professional, a women entrepreneur or a working mom. You invest in your business and career, your home, your family…
But if YOU aren't thriving, fueled, and operating at your best, everything else suffers too. Besides, life is just too short to spend it chasing your "to-do" list and knowing that YOU and your health and well-being aren't what they could be. Personal coaching can help.
Using my signature T.H.R.I.V.E.™ Formula, I help women achieve their personal and professional goals while simultaneously addressing stress, overload, and the unhelpful habits that can creep into your life and work against your goal of being your best. I'll show you how to ditch the "work harder and harder" model by making quantum shifts in your mindset and your approach to your goals.
My coaching approach is carefully designed to help you meet your objectives, accelerate your progress, learn how to address your specific challenges, and stay in action—all while avoiding overwhelm and enjoying the journey as much as possible. I work intensively with my personal coaching clients to provide accountability, motivation enhancement, support, encouragement, and the tools and expertise you need to achieve your goals.
Group and personal coaching is generally conducted by phone or Skype. I work with clients in locations worldwide, although you may choose to schedule individual coaching appointments in my Bellingham, Washington office.
"I feel very comfortable working with Melissa. She 'gets' me. She saw the real me and believed in the real me before I even knew who that was or what it looked like. She continually encourages me to move a little bit out of my comfort zone and towards my goals. She keeps me accountable. She is available for support and encouragement by email in between my coaching calls. Working with Melissa, I gained my spirit back. I gained the courage and the security to know that I can be at my best and that I am a good person. I learned how to stay with myself when I feel uncomfortable. I learned how to be compassionate and kind to myself. I didn't expect that I would learn these things. I thought I would learn a system or a process to manage my time, develop willpower and be able to turn off my emotional eating switch.
I used to look at certain people I knew, and admire that they could be so grounded, at peace with themselves, and at ease in the world. I am becoming more like them. I finally 'get' what it means to be in the present moment. I take time for myself every day. I am so glad I did this." Mary Jo Falvey, www.PilatesTutor.com

Perfect Balance and Dark Future0 Reviews
Two drabbles about the Earth's future.
Disclaimer: Ecco and his world belong to Appaloosa Interactive.
Title: Perfect Balance
Summary: A drabble about the Earth's rightful future.
Life on Earth is in perfect balance.
The ocean itself is alive, given consciousness by its oldest inhabitant, the Asterite, and the ocean gives the Asterite a body beyond its globes. In the Living Sea, creatures live and die as they always have, and Singers leap and play as they always have, some jumping into the Dry Side and staying there, swimming through the great sea of the sky, and their cousin Singers follow them through the water tubes, the Skyway. With each passing generation, the Singers seek to swim ever higher, yearning to explore beyond their little water planet.
Title: Dark Future
Summary: A drabble about the Earth's dark future.
Life on Earth serves the needs of the Vortex.
The hive, so small a million Queens ago, wraps around all the seas of the planet, and to some extent it rises above them, too. All of the planet's sapient creatures, beings who might have risen against the Vortex, were killed and eaten long ago, both the creatures of water and the creatures of land. The Earth is not dead yet, but every passing Queen and drone generation brings it closer; the Vortex still activate their beam often, feeding on livelier worlds. The Earth is dying, but the Vortex still thrive.

Is there a way to customize the right click menus in Vista?cstonaha : July 22, 2009 1:53 pm : Hints Tips and Q&A
I like my Vista computer but I'm wondering, is there a way to customize the right click menus. When I right click a file, there are a bunch of options there that I never, ever use but I have to wade through all that to get to the one I want. Can I remove some of them?
Many applications install their own items in the right context menu when you install them. After a while, if you install lots of these apps, your context menu can get pretty cluttered up, and some of these menu items may be unused and unwanted. Even if you uninstall the programs, the items may stay in the context menu.
You can remove items from the context menu by editing the registry. The items are contained in the following key: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT \ * \ shellex \ ContextMenuHandlers
Delete the keys for the items you don't want. Be sure to back up the registry before editing it.
If you're not comfortable with editing the registry, there are free third party tools you can use to remove and add context menu items. One is FileMenu Tools, which you can download at
*Thanks again to Deb Shinder for her help with this one!

'Desperate' Naming Game
On last night's Desperate Housewives, Susan's friends react to her unusual baby name choice. But does a name really determine how a person is treated? Our expert weighs in.
We asked Jennifer Moss from BabyNames.com, what's really in a name?
"Don't fool yourself," she says. "What you name your child really does matter. Studies have shown that kids are treated differently in school depending on their names. But a lot has to do with personal, as well as community, perception."
"Personal perception would be your personal experiences -- identifying a name with the people you know and grew up with," she continues. "For example, if you have a horrid Aunt Hattie who you can't stand, you will be averse to that name. Or if there was a bully in school named Bobby, most likely you won't choose that as a baby name."
"Community perception is like when someone famous or a famous character has a particular name, so an entire community associates the name with the person," she adds. "For example, the name 'Michael Jackson' and 'Paris' bring up images of the celebrity for MANY people."
And the deal with "Maynard"?
"Maynard is mostly used in the South," she explains. "Because it is a French surname, it may have been popularized first in the Creole culture in Louisiana. It is a French version of a German name meaning 'strong'."
Who knew?
I do think that your name influences how someone perceives you before they meet you, and also how they treat you afterwards. I think that's why people struggle with finding names for their kids - or at least we did!

eGovernment is possible
Now that we have a reliable world-wide communication system it would seem that we can now overcome the use of violence to solve our conflicts, by eliminating the human factor and replacing it with Integrated computer systems that are fully transparent and changeable only by eVoting. An efficient world government is possible and not as improbable as may first seem. The cost of eGovernment would be much lower than existing forms and that would create a huge boost in disposable income, which can only translate into a huge ecomomic boost. The only reason there is control by vested interests is that our management system is sloppy. I am sure that we can solve all the great ptoblems only one way and that is together. It's time we utilized technology in it's ultimate capability to assist in the saving of the Earth for our granchildren's grandchildren.

ASHEVILLE, N.C. - Bill Cecil and his son were out hunting wild turkey in the rain in 2010 when he got a call that the president would be at the family homestead in a half-hour.
Barack Obama was not the first chief executive to visit the place on the outskirts of Asheville, N.C. Nor was William Amherst Vanderbilt Cecil Jr. the first of his family to welcome one.
Cecil, 53, is the chief executive of the family-owned Biltmore Estate, North Carolina's most-visited tourist attraction and the largest privately owned home in the nation. The sprawling French chateau was built by great-grandfather George Washington Vanderbilt in the 1880s and today is the centerpiece of a larger concern that has 950 employees - around 1,800 during peak season.
"It's a job," he said. "I try to show up early for work because Biltmore has turned into a business that includes industries from hospitality to agriculture."
The president seemed to have a good time there, by the way: He was budgeted to spend 20 minutes but stayed close to an hour and a half. In the library, Cecil said, Obama was fascinated by an ornate 1890s globe the size of a medicine ball and asked if he could touch it.
"He put gloves on his hands, and we lowered the guard rope. He spent 15 minutes moving the globe this way and that."
Cecil - pronounced "sess-il" - grew up having the run of the 8,000-acre estate on the French Broad River. He is accustomed to all stripe of tourists. Roughly 1 million visitors per year is business as usual.
Unlike his father, he was not born in the mansion and never lived there. His parents moved back to Asheville in 1958, two years after the chateau was permanently converted into an attraction that William Cecil Sr., now retired, inherited. Bill and his sister, Diana, were raised in south Asheville.
Being without residents better allows the mansion to be frozen in time.
"Most of the restoration was done in the 1970s through '90s. Two hundred fifty rooms are stabilized and 90 percent of them are restored."
About 85 percent of mansion floor space is open to the public.
Cecil himself, however is both shy and private. Who he's from crosses into work; who he is is his own business.
How cool would it be growing up with your family owning the mansion where the movie "Richie Rich" was filmed?
He recalls bowling in the basement's alley until a rosewood ball broke.
Of playing after hours in a quieted 130,000-square-foot manor hall, he remembers thinking the Winter Garden's trapdoor freight elevator was kind of creepy.
What about the "Champagne Lady" ghost? Legend has it that she descends the marble staircase just off the main entrance.
Cecil snickered and said, "That was a story until closed-circuit TV; she hasn't been seen since."
His favorite room? The more than 10,000-book library, because of the way the light plays through the windows.
He is visually oriented and focused on what he terms "the operational end of things."
Born for Biltmore: Bill Cecil runs the estate his ancestor created more than a century ago
