State Cup Counter: Idaho Nabs 3
State Cup Winners from across Rush Nation continue to roll in. Idaho Rush finished up their event over Memorial Day weekend and will head to Far West Regionals in Hawaii with three teams having been crowned State Champs! The U14 Boys, U14 Girls and U19 Boys will join the 17 other Rush qualifiers in Honolulu June 17-23.
The U14 boys continued the club's tradition of having at least one back-to-back champion for the fifth straight year. But it wasn't easy for Rush, as they had to play a semifinal every bit as worthy of a final and then grind out a win in the final when the goalsweren't quite falling like they were supposed to. In their four games at State Cup, only one was decided by more than two goals, showing the quality of the competition. Like the girls U14 team, the boys declined the opportunity to advance to Far West Regionals, so a win the in the final will serve as a proud end to the season.
The U14 Girls have been through a lot in the past month or so, but they were able to put aside off-field concerns for the weekend and focus on the task at hand: winning the State Cup title. Despite losing their coach just before a string of year-end tournaments, the girls were able to show professionalism and class on the field. Their undefeated and untied run through the State Cup tournament earned the club its second girls championship in history and sets them up for a repeat in 2014. If there is a downside, it's that the girls won't be rewarded with the traditional trip to Far West Regionals, which is in Honolulu this year. The team chose not to attend because of the travel expense, and Region IV does not accept State Cup champions to the USYS President's Cup, so the team will have to be content with a job well done.
The U19 Boys The boys wanted one more shot at Far West Regionals, so they returned from their respective college teams to form a U19 team specifically for Regionals. Because they were the only U19 boys team to enter State Cup this year, they were automatically crowned champions, their fifth such title in eight years. Fifteen players, including 10 players from last year's state championship team will make the trip.

The solar wind is a convenient sample of the surface layers of the sun, which have preserved the composition of the original solar nebula from which all planetary objects formed. Genesis will focus on determining the ratio of isotopes of different elements in solar matter. There are small, but important differences in the abundance of isotopes of some elements -- most notably oxygen and nitrogen -- among the various solar system materials available for study in Earth's laboratories. These differences are not explained by the standard model for the origin of the solar system.
After the collection period, the spacecraft closed-up and returned the samples to Earth in a Stardust-like sample-return capsule (SRC). On 8 September 2004 the SRC entered Earth's atmosphere as planned, but its gravity switches were oriented incorrectly as the result of a design error and the parachute system failed to deploy. The high-speed (311 km per hour (193 mph)) wreck compromised the SRC and shattered many of the Genesis collectors. However, the Genesis Preliminary Examination Team was able to show that, because the solar-wind ions were buried beneath the surface of the collectors, it is possible to detect and quantify elements in the solar-wind.
In March 2005, Johnson Space Center curatorial staff started allocating solar-wind collectors to the international scientific community. Each allocation will allow scientists to glean information on the composition of the solar wind, allowing us to piece together the chemical and isotopic composition of the solar nebula which formed our solar system. Genesis samples have provided data leading to several important scientific insights into questions related to planetary materials or cosmochemistry. The cosmochemical and solar research on Genesis samples will continue for decades.

Our community is outraged that so many homicides are being committed, and the NAACP listed 15 recommendations for what can be done to make a difference. Those recommendations address the symptoms, but not the cause.
This is a moral problem. Where was the outrage when abortion was legalized (minimizing the value of life), when more children are born out of wedlock than from married couples and when same-sex couples can marry (even endorsed by politicians who have no courage, but want votes)?
We will always have exceptions because we are all sinners and fall short, but these things are becoming the norm instead of the exception.
The key is family. A loving mother and father who nurture disciplined children. Is that too much to ask? When times get difficult, family members get support from one another, not from the government.
My heart bleeds for those who have recently lost loved ones through violence, for the tired grandmothers who are raising their grandchildren because their sons or daughters are incompetent; for the teachers who are trying to teach children who are hungry, undisciplined, and without basic skills they should have learned at home.
It took more than a generation to produce the carnage of today, but if our churches and authorities have the courage to address the moral problems, the next generation should produce the children we can admire.

Interpretive Handbook
61767 :
Alpha-1-Antitrypsin Proteotype S/Z by LC-MS/MS, Serum
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
Alpha-1-antitrypsin (A1A) is a protein that inhibits the enzyme neutrophil elastase. It is predominantly synthesized in the liver and secreted into the bloodstream. The inhibition function is especially important in the lungs because it protects against excess tissue degradation. Tissue degradation due to A1A deficiency is associated with an increased risk for early onset panlobular emphysema, which initially affects the lung bases (as opposed to smoking-related emphysema, which presents with upper-lung field emphysema). Patients may become symptomatic in their 30s and 40s. The most frequent symptoms reported in a National Institute of Health study of 1,129 patients with severe deficiency (mean age 46 years) included cough (42%), wheezing (65%), and dyspnea with exertion (84%). Many patients were misdiagnosed as having asthma. It is estimated that approximately one-sixth of all lung transplants are for A1A deficiency. Liver disease can also occur, particularly in children; it occurs much less commonly than emphysema in adults.
A1A deficiency is a relatively common disorder in Northern European Caucasians. The diagnosis of A1A deficiency is initially made by quantitation of protein levels in serum followed by determination of specific allelic variants by isoelectric focusing (IEF). While there are many different alleles in this gene, only 3 are common. The 3 major alleles include: M (full functioning, normal allele), S (associated with reduced levels of protein), and Z (disease-causing mutation associated with liver disease and premature emphysema). The S and Z alleles account for the majority of the abnormal alleles detected in affected patients. As a codominant disorder, both alleles are expressed. An individual of SZ or S-null genotype may have a small increased risk for emphysema (but not liver disease) due to slightly reduced protein levels. On the other hand, an individual with the ZZ genotype is at greater risk for early onset liver disease and premature emphysema. Smoking appears to hasten development of emphysema by 10 to 15 years. These individuals should be monitored closely for lung and liver function.
Historically, IEF has been the primary method for characterizing variants, though in some cases the interpretation is difficult and prone to error. Serum quantitation is helpful in establishing a diagnosis, but can be influenced by other factors. A proteomic method using trypsin-digested sera can detect the mutated peptides of the S and Z alleles, but can miss disease alleles other than the S and Z alleles. This test combines all of these methods to provide a comprehensive result.
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Determining the specific proteotype for prognosis and genetic counseling for patients with alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
For each of the possible alpha-1-antitrypsin (A1A) genotypes there is an expected range for the total serum level of A1A. However, a number of factors can influence either the A1A serum level or the A1A proteotype results, including acute illness (A1A is an acute-phase reactant), protein replacement therapy, the presence of other rare variants, or the presence of DNA polymorphisms. When the serum level differs from what is expected for that proteotype (ie, discordant), additional studies are performed to ensure the most appropriate interpretation of test results. Additional follow-up may include A1A phenotyping by isoelectric focusing, obtaining additional clinical information, and DNA sequencing.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
This assay will not detect 5% of the known mutations that cause alpha-1-antitrypsin (A1A) deficiency. Therefore, the absence of a detectable mutation does not rule out the possibility that an individual is a carrier of, or affected with, this disease.
Test results should be interpreted in the context of clinical findings, family history, and other laboratory data. Errors in our interpretation of results may occur if information given is inaccurate or incomplete.
Rare mutations exist that could lead to false-negative or false-positive results. If results obtained do not match the clinical findings, additional testing should be considered.
Errors in interpretation may occur if patients have had a recent blood transfusion or are on A1A replacement therapy.
Reference Values Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.

On the evening of August 16, 2013, officers from the Indiana State Police Peru Post will conduct an enforcement checkpoint targeting impaired drivers in Miami County. After the checkpoint, troopers will conduct roving saturation patrols aggressively seeking impaired drivers throughout the Indiana State Police Peru District which covers Cass, Fulton, Grant, Miami, Howard, Tipton, and Wabash Counties.
Impaired driving remains one of America's deadliest problems. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, in 2011, 32,367 people were killed nationally in motor vehicle crashes. That same year, 9,878 people were killed in crashes that involved a driver or motorcyclist with a blood alcohol concentration of .08 or higher. That means every 53 minutes someone died in a crash involving an impaired driver. In Indiana, in 2011, there were a total of 188,132 crashes, 4,938 involved an alcohol impaired driver, resulting in 140 deaths.
The purpose of enforcement checkpoints is to remove impaired drivers from Indiana roadways before they cause needless pain, suffering, or death to innocent victims
Reminders so motorists do not find themselves "Over the Limit and Under Arrest":
•Plan ahead and always designate a sober driver before consuming alcohol.
•Don't drive a vehicle if you've been drinking alcohol. Call a taxi or a sober friend. A cab ride is cheaper than a D.U.I. arrest.
•Take care of your friends. Never let a friend drive while impaired. Take their keys.
•If you are hosting a party, always offer non-alcoholic beverages. Make sure all of your guests leave with a sober driver.
•Never provide alcohol to anyone under the legal drinking age of 21.
Motorists are encouraged to report suspected impaired drivers by calling 911. Give a vehicle description, location, and direction of travel. Never follow an impaired driver.

Excelent choice
This fan was an excellent choice for my open family room. It works great and I like the fact that it has a remote control. Does give a lot of air on Medium setting.Read More
Quiet fan
This fan is very quiet and the light is bright for only two small bulbs. The fan speeds provide ample air flow. There are a few drawbacks: the blades are painted a slightly different color than the metal body of the fan, the fan can only be controlled by the remote there isn't a cord to pull.Read More
Love Love Love
This item is AWESOME!!! It looks amazing. I didn't even know I had the option of the silver blades down or wood. I love the silver, that's my look. So easy to install, so easy to use. The remote comes with a wall holder that I think I'm going to use. This is so worth the money. Love Love Love this fan!!!!Read More
Love this fan
Nice quality, great look, very quiet.Read More
A Deal
These fans are nice and light and can make a room look trendy in just on your. Beware of you purchase more than one. They all come with the same preset so if you mount without changing the remote control settings all of them will turn on and off at the flick of any other burro. In any other roomRead More
Contemporary 52 inch Nickel 2 light ceiling fan
This fan came and was easy to install, runs silently, and looks nice. The fan blades look a little cheap but they are not too bad as long as you are not inspecting it close up. It is a nice fan overall. I cannot comment on the remote since I did not install that. I have my fan hardwired and operates off of a fan switch. I am happy with my purchase.Read More
Great Looking
This fan is great--looks fabulous and moves a lot of air. Same fan at the big-box stores was about $80 more. Warning to self-installers: When you get to the part on the remote control and can't figure out where to install it it goes up into the bracket above the fan. The instructions don't make this veryclear, and it's a very tight fit, so be patient. Also,if replacing a light fixture with this fan, the canopy is small and may not cover the existing hole you have in your ceiling. You may want to plan on putting up a ceiling medallion, which is much easier to do BEFORE you hang the fan. I had to buy a 2-piece medallion for subsequent installation. Better instructions would have saved some time, so I'm hoping i can save you that time!Read More
Great fan
This fan was purchased because of its contemporary design. The blade design is a bit unconventional, making them hard to install. The bulbs that come with the fan are cheap and inadequate to light up a room. There is no nomenclature on the fan, which may be problematic if parts or the remote need to be replaced. Other than that, it's quiet and does the job.Read More
Mystery ceiling fan
I went to my local Lowes, so I could see what I was buying - Lowe's selection was truly disappointing. I have made several purchases - sight unseen - through O.Com, so I gave this a try too. Ceiling fan was exactly as indicated on-line. The electrician who installed it also agreed - as indicated. We both noticed a HOWEVER - nowhere was the actual BRAND indicated on the box, instructions, on-line. It all turned out fine, but it was kinda odd. I would make this purchase again with no hesitations.Read More

Questions & Answers
I wanted a ceiling fan with remote control. This was also the right price
cuz it's cool
I purchased ceiling light/fan & conversion kit for wall switch. It also has a remote to operate light & fan. The remote operates fine. The wall switch operates light but not the fan. Please confirm how to troubleshoot. Per previous Q&A, the manufacturer is Aztec Lighting. I contacted Aztec Lighting is Phoenix, AZ and they do not manufacture ceiling lights/fans. Please provide manufacture contact info for this particular ceiling light/fan.
Hello Mercer, you will be contacted by Customer Care. Have a great day.

Thank you for your question shippy44. Unfortunately, they are not available, we are sorry. Have a great day.
What is the Maximum Bulb Wattage?
We are still researching this and should have the answer shortly.
Thank you for your question xsordo. The maximum wattage for the Contemporary 52-inch Nickel 2-light Ceiling Fan is 40 watts. Have a great day.
what is the total height of this fan (from bottom of light to ceiling)?
Maybe 15 inches. We placed this at a high point in our cathedral ceiling.
Is this energy star rated?
Unfortunately dtonnu1, this is not energy star rated. Thanks for shopping with us.
how much does the fan weigh?
Thank you for your question empac. The Contemporary 52-inch Nickel 2-light Ceiling Fan's shipping weight is 30 pounds. Have a great day.
What are the blades made of?
Thank you for your question excuseme. The blades are made of wood. Have a great day.
Can you clarify if this can not accept a longer downrod or you just don't sell them. If the short downrod is replaceable, what is the diameter of it. I need at least a 3 foot drop. Thank you
Hi kodican, we were able to verify this information with our support team. We do not provide additional down rods for this ceiling fan fixture or recommend using additional down rods. The down rod's diameter is ¾ inch. We hope this helps. Thanks for shopping with us.
i wanted to know if this will work in the philippines we have 220v not 110v pls email me back and what it the bulb requirement ? Is it E27?
The fixture is wired for 110 volts.
Can you flush mount this fan.
No this can not be slush mounted.
Any idea if you will be restocking this item. Like to purchase if you do.
This item is currently in stock. If it sells out, we are unable to guarantee when or if it will be restocked.
What kind of mount does this fan have?
Unfortunately, at present, this item is presently out of stock. We currently do not have inventory to check, and cannot guarantee the item will be restocked. Please feel free to check back with us periodically to see if the item has returned.
Can this be flush mounted, without a downrod?
What is flowrate of fan & RPM of blades?
The RPM rates for this fan are 186 RPM at high setting, 128 RPM at medium setting, and 75 RPM at low setting. We do not have information about its flow rate.
What type of light bulbs does this use and what is the maximum watts?
The description indicates that lighting requirements are two 40-watt medium-base bulb, which are not included.
What is the brand name of this fan?
The brand is Aztec Lighting.
It seems odd that you could not purchase a longer down rod for this fan. Below it states that it is not possible, but I believe this is very similar to a Minka Aire fan. If that is the case, they use a standard down rod. Can you please specifically ask the manufacturer if longer down rods can be purchased?
Unfortunately, we do not have longer down rods for this fan.
Can this fan be used without the light kit?
Unfortunately, this fan must be used with the light kit.

I'm plastering my first drywall and have been given advice from a friend who as done it a few times before. He believes I should not sand down the mud (a.k.a. jointing compound) between coats, but I think I should. I don't think the first layer is as smooth as it should be and I think getting any little bumps out now before the next coat would be a good idea. Surely the next swipe of the knife is going to catch on them and leave elongated ridges or scratches down stream.
Take the 2-minute tour ×

Yes, knock off any bumps between coats, but there's no need to get it perfect. A screen sander on the end of a pole is the best tool for this job. And it goes without saying that you should minimize any bumps while the mud is still drying to avoid having to sand it later. Some even recommend using the premix joint compound on the last coat and, just before it dries, going over it with a slightly damp sponge to take off any bumps.
Sand if you need to in the beginning, but I bet after a few tries you can master it so that you don't need to sand between coats. You will get to where you only need to sand a little after the last coat.

I think we feed a cold and starve a fever what with all that chicken soup for a cold business. Am I right?
I fought the big fight against a cold for a few weeks but in the end the cold won. For me it has gone right into my chest and I am coughing a lot. The timing has me furious as I had a 3 day weekend and hoped to get lots done. I didn't. I napped a lot though. That was good.
The coughing leads to a sore throat and a sore chest and back. The coughing leads to peeing. I am making sure that my bladder is empty all the time in case a fit of coughing strikes. Should be fun at work today.
One of my co-workers told me to cut up an orange and put a slice across my teeth like we would as kids and just suck on it to get the juice to run down my throat and do you know what. It stopped my coughing.
She also told me to make an infusion of thyme and hot water and put that by my bed at bedtime and that would also help. I never did get around to that.
I did have to break down and get some cough syrup Friday but other than that I don't usually medicate a cold. Except for Vicks Vaporub. That I do use on my chest.
What cures do you guys use to alleviate your cold symptoms? Do they work or do you just do them because your mother did them for you when you were little?

I swear by Lemon Tea. I was really sick over the holidays and having a cup of hot tea seemed to sooth the cough and keep me warmed through. I started this in college after a friend made it for me. Even if someone scientifically proved it had no health effect, it tastes wonderful. My boys like to have it for that reason alone.
Lemon tea - put 1/2 a lemon in 12-16 oz water. Microwave about 3 minutes until almost boiling (or boil on the stove). Remove from microwave (heat). Using a pot holder and spoon, carefully squeeze the juice and pulp from the lemon and discard the rind. Add as much honey as you like - local honey is best. I have a sweet tooth and use a lot!

Well, we use chicken soup and lemon tea - but here's a little tidbit for you: did you know that Vick's Vaporub gets rid of toenail fungus (you know that awful gunk that makes old people's toenails thick and ugly)? It's amazing but true!!

LOL!!! I've thought about this often and simply do not KNOW which way it is SUPPOSED to be - - - so since I like to eat, I'll feed them BOTH.
Logic would tell me to STARVE a fever for it requires energy to HAVE a fever - - - so rather like a fire if you took away the fuel it should starve the fever - - - but these things are RARELY logical.

Poor you! I hope your better soon. Seems the bugs are getting tougher. Or modern living is making our immune systems weaker, considering how long the average cold seems to last nowadays. I had two colds within a six week period starting in December. A rarity for me. The best I could do was up my vit. C and zinc intake and hope for the best.

Ick! Sorry you're under the weather. We all had it over the last two weeks. I am not even exaggerating when I say I had this crud for a good 10 days or so. I like Airborne for when it feels like it's coming on and Nyquil when it gets here.
I also like wine no matter what.

diet) Hugs (but only air hugs - as I don't want
your cold/sickness..hee hee ?)

I use a combination of all of the above mentioned remedies, actually. Plus a few added ones, and mother-taught tips.
Chicken soup + lots of oranges + tea tree oil (3 drops in a spoonful of honey) + vapor rub + vitamin C. Oh and lots of steam, don't let the house/room air get too dry, that's what triggers throat cough.
For more serious pulmonary troubles I go with antibiotics. But only if there's fever involved.
Hope you get better SOON!!

Eliminate dairy as much as you can--it produces mucus which makes things worse. Find some mullein and make a cup of tea. It's wonderful for chest congestion. You can find it at health food stores in leaf or tincture form. At night, rub that Vick's on the bottoms of your feet and put on socks. I promise it will stop your coughing! Use some of those nose strips for snoring. Take care of yourself!! Hope you're feeling better soon.

Thanks for the orange tip - I'll try it next time. Hot toddies definitely, whiskey, honey, aspririn, hot water and a clove. Sublime! Get better soon.

I am a firm believer in COLD FX! Try it. It's great. Not much help for the cough, though. The oranges probably work better to keep the cough to a dull roar :)
Get better soon!

My medicine is hot water with honey,lemon and ginger,sipped slowly,to help a sore throat,followed by a stiff whisky to forget the cold.!!!
I have an apology to make to you.I changed my computer some time ago and in setting it up I lost all my blog contacts.I found most of them but but could not get yours.After all this time,it suddenly came back today,I hope you did not think I had stopped following you.

Lucy, I'm sorry you have been a sickie! I like the warmth of Menthlatum on my chest when I'm congested with a cold. It's similar to Vicks but not quite as stinky! I'm really not sure it works, but it just feels good. I think my grandmother used to use this "remedy" on us. I tend to get bronchitis when I catch a cold, then have to go on antibiotics. Until then, nothing really helps. I used to get sick every July and December- without fail! Then I went on a regime of allergy shots and it has made all the difference. The occasional cold can turn really bad for me so I'm diligent about washing my hands as much and as often as I can. Geez, I sound paranoid!! Hope you feel better soon. hugs, Ethel

Hi i want to get some ideas for material to build a light weight but strong trike frame, i was looking at either mild steel or aluminium but as i dont know much about chassis construction im asking you guys for some help,
The engine for the planned trike is a Honda vf750 producing around 120bhp, i would prefer to use some sort of aircraft grade steel but not sure what to go for????/
Please help

Material recommendation for a motorcycle based trike????
Hi I build custom Barstool Racers and have used both Alum. and steel tubing, both work well you just have to make sure you use proper gussets to make you're frame strong.

Depending on total weight. I am using 1 1/4 HREW for most frame components and 1.5 DOM for overhead and roll components. I use .060 to .100 wall thickness depending on location and strength required. Might have a look at the Barracuda plans for an idea. Look also at Off Road Fab Network and see what those guys are using in their weekend wheelers and off road buggies. Too broad of a question without clear plan of what you want to build and what you plan to do with it really.

Don't want to rain on your parade, but with the knowledge base you have shown thus far you may be better off taking baby steps with this project. Bar stool racers, excellent start, short chassis, low flex...off-road vehicles, more education, lot more flex and engineering...highway operation, forget it for now. I'm not trying to put you down, but you're asking a mighty basic question for a guy attempting to fabricate a vehicle with 120bhp. If it isn't for highway operation, have at it, its your hide.
I got to see my brother lose the front end of his Corvair trike back in our high school days coming by the Dairy Queen @ 10-15 mph after he had driven it over from the next town. He got lucky...only a bad case of road rash and wounded pride. Worked well for a year or so, but a molded in steering hub with a nice paint job didn't hold up with bad engineering and suspect welds...18" over Harley springer and too many wheelies were just too much.Miller 251...sold the spoolgun to DiverBill.

We call it CDS tube seamless you call it DOM which would be a great place to start Also make joints and perform destructive tests to determine how well you are going. The main rule with tube joints in NO GAPS. The better the fit the better the finish.

Reason I say that is I might have a bit of interest in your question but I don't have the foggiest idea of what size you are talking about. And I also never heard of the metal you mention either.
I am guessing that if your were to convert all that data over to something more American, or something at least a hillbilly like me can understand, you may get some decent feedback.

ok sorry cd cfs seemless is the same as your dom tubing, basically cfs mechanical is what we use in the UK to make roll cages, T45 is a very high carbon grade mild steel used on aircraft, but what i was tring to find out is i know you lot use chromolly seemless, but i wanted some advise on different metal like aluminium and if that can be used to build a small trike frame and long with the wishbone suspension that i want to make......
I will begin with this (and you probably don't want to hear it), if you have to ask this question then you don't have any business trying to do this. Their are people whom you could pay to do it and it would be fine, but at the stage of the game you are at it could get you maimed for life and anyone else involved as well.
Aluminum should not be flexed over and over like steel. Think of a soda can tab. That is your frame. Where ever a thick part meets a thin section is where it's gonna crack.
The flexing is known as cycling and even a vibration counts. So if you had a big engine that vibrated a lot, you would have MILLIONS of cycles besides all the road cycles you would encounter going down the highway.
Next if you did have it designed by an engineer, and you made it out of the proper alloy, it would have to be heat treated after it was built. Aluminum completely looses it's temper in the weld area.
You could make it out of one giant chunk of aluminum by machining it and be plenty strong, if you had a good enuff design. There sure would be a lot of wasted material on the floor tho.
If you still insist on an aluminum framed trike, then find a motorcycle with one and make a swingarm, but leave the original frame alone. Even then it would be stupid simply because the twisting forces on a trike are present that the motorcycle would never see.
So MY answer is NO you should not do this. I work with aluminum everyday and I own an aluminum welding biz. That is 99% of my income. If I were to build a trike I wouldn't even consider using aluminum for the frame.
This would not be that much different than an airplane frame made from aluminum...it must be an absolutely perfect design and be properly heat treated besides having periodic inspections that would possibly uncover defects that would render it as useless.

Why not a rigid frame aluminum trike? Build the frame skookum enough that it doesn't flex and I don't see a problem with it. If ALU is strong enough for fuel trucks to haul 40,000 litres of fuel (that's about 10,500 gals. for you americans) down the hiway or to make 900 lb snowmobiles climb straight up mountains I don't see why it wouldn't work to build a weekend cruiser.
I say find some engineering info on different grades of ALU such as weight loading and cycle limits and go to it.Big Blue 400D

Derek Lam / Fall 2013 Ready-to-Wear
Search a show by:
Late last year Derek Lam parted ways with his investors and bought back his business. It's the kind of thing that precipitates independence, of course, and usually a closer look at budgets. Paring down is not always an easy thing to accomplish, let alone accomplish well, but if it was a conscious effort on Lam's part to do so, well done. Showing in a smaller space this season with just 27 looks (most designers show about 40) served his clean, streamlined aesthetic. It also reflected what so many women are trying to do themselves—winnow their overcommitted, overstimulated lives. And if more choices actually make decisions impossible, Lam must have found the magic number—after the show, more than one editor had already decided which pieces they want.
The slouchy pant resonated particularly strongly. Lam set out to create pieces for all the women he encounters at trunk shows who ask, "I have so much in my wardrobe, what do I really need?" Safe to say that in terms of clothes, at least, no one needs anything. So a designer has to make people want. Hence the cool double-face wool pants that offer that sense of relaxed elegance everyone seems to be craving. That they look easy to pull off—paired with one of Lam's great, boxy wool sweaters or a satin top with a cape thrown on over the shoulders—makes them all the more appealing. There was a clear sense of a fresh, modern, and grown-up insouciance.
Lam also continued the patchwork and crochet theme he started in spring, weaving together strips of leather to create volume and swing in a skirt or sewing geometric pieces of suede into a short, T-shirt-style dress he thinks could be a new take on evening. It's a look rooted in a sort of macramé, free-love vibe but was done so cleanly in Lam's hand, it appeared thoroughly modern. If some of the last pieces didn't feel as authentic to the designer's specific vision as the others, they were still very wearable and easy to work into a wardrobe. In the end, this was a strong, tightly edited show that offered just enough. It seems Lam is standing firmly on his own two feet.

Men's team looks for fifth title while women look to dethrone Jacksonville
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (Feb. 16, 2012) – The ETSU men's and women's track and field teams will host the 2012 Atlantic Sun Indoor Championships this Friday and Saturday at the ETSU/MSHA Athletic Center.
The women's championship gets underway with the pentathlon on Friday at 8:30 a.m., while the men's starts at 8:45 a.m. with the heptathlon. All six men's and seven women's teams from the Atlantic Sun Conference will be competing through 17 respective events, with the meet coming to a close following the awards presentations on Saturday at 4:30 p.m.
The ETSU men and women have enjoyed much success during the 2011-12 indoor season, especially on the field side of the events. The Bucs have combined to earn five Atlantic Sun Field Athlete of the Week honorees, with three of the five competing as freshman. Through the first three weeks of the indoor season, freshmen Katerina Vodova (Humpolec, Czech Republic), Jadon Short (Oak Ridge, Tenn.) and K'vonte Scott (Virginia Beach, Va.) all earned the weekly honor.
Last year, the men's team took home its conference-leading fourth A-Sun Championship by scoring a combined 152 points to beat runner-up Kennesaw State by 15 points. The Bucs and Owls have dominated the men's side of the competition in its six-year history, with ETSU claiming the title in 2006, '07, '09 and '11, and Kennesaw State winning the remaining two in 2008 and '10.
ETSU took first place in four different events on its way to last year's men's title. Then-senior Michael James (Palm Bay, Fla.) won the 60m hurdles by setting an A-Sun Indoor Championship record time of 8.02, while a second former Buc Jarrod Burton (Bastian Va.) also set a meet record with a 17.47m shot put. Burton's toss bested the previous A-Sun Championship mark, set by Burton in 2009, by one foot, 10 inches.
The Bucs' two other victories came in the men's 800m, with Desmond Pierce (Morristown, Tenn.) edging by Kennesaw State's Gianni Catalano to win with a time of 1:54.89, and the heptathlon. Jesse Aliaga-Jacob (Nice, France) captured the points for ETSU in the heptathlon with 4,750 points, placing him at No. 3 in the meet's record books. The Bucs have controlled the event since the first A-Sun meet in 2006, having won five of six heptathlons and holding the No. 1-4 spots in the championship meet record books.
Scott can add to ETSU's dominance in the heptathlon if he can repeat his performance from earlier in the year at the CNU Captains Invitational and Multis, when he scored 4,834 points to break Nic Chernikow's (Seymour, Tenn.) previous school record of 4,820, which currently sits atop the A-Sun Indoor Championship record books. Fellow freshman Filip Jalovy (Modrice, Czech Republic) has also shown he could set a new A-Sun meet record, having already outrun the 800m record with a 1:53.15 showing earlier in the year. Junior Tim O'Dell (Palm Coast, Fla.) would break the 400m record if he can repeat his 48.30 mark he set three weeks ago on the very same track during the Niswonger Invitational.
The women's team will look to put an end to Jacksonville's six-consecutive A-Sun Indoor Championship titles. The Dolphins have owned the meet since its inauguration in 2006, with their average margin of victory over the last six years coming by 56.83 points. The closest JU came to losing was in '06, when they snuck past Florida Atlantic by 14 points (133-119). Since then, JU's smallest margin of victory came in 2010, when it took home the title by 57 points over Kennesaw State (211-154).
Last year, the ETSU women finished fourth by totaling 72 points over the two-day event. ETSU's best A-Sun Indoor finish came in 2007, when it totaled 81 points to tie for second place with Belmont. The Dolphins won the meet with 150 points.
Sophomore Emani Harrison (Columbia, S.C.) came up just short in last year's women's 60m dash, as she tallied a lifetime best time of 7.62 but could not edge out Jacksonville's Louise Kiernan who finished with a time of 7.59.
Senior sisters Hannah Bowers (Jonesborough, Tenn.) and Emma Bowers (Jonesborough, Tenn.) were part of last year's third place 4x400m relay team. The duo teamed with former Bucs Ashton Bishop (Gate City, Va.) and Jasmine Ingram (Frederick, Md.) to post a time of 3:53.28 to pick up six points.
Vodova scored 3,698 points at Penn State's Sykes & Sabock Challenge Cup two weeks ago, a mark that would place her first all-time at the A-Sun Indoors if she were to repeat it this weekend.
Entry lists, heat sheets and live results will be available throughout the course of the weekend courtesy of cfpitiming.com.

I guess I'm in the minority but I don't give a **** if he juiced. The dude overcame cancer and then won the tour de france several times in a row. What was it, like 7 times or something?
You mean if I stick a needle in my ass I can win the tour de france? No? Of course not.
Today's steroids were last century's vitamins and exercise equipment and machines. Science has been trying to enhance physical performance for centuries. Why it's suddenly considered taboo is beyond me.
The dude overcame cancer, and then won the tour de france, like 7 times. We're seriously condemning him for juicing up? Even though everyone else was juicing up too? Why?
Let me see anyone on this board, or reporting on this story in the media, win the tour de france even once. Juice up all you want and tell me how it instantly made you superman, lol.
Vindictive, conspiratorial, lying, cheating, smug azhole that used his position to ruin the careers of people trying to make an honest living and to ruin the careers and reputation of people who tried to speak the truth.
Yea, the cheaters should get all the money and glory, and honest decent people are pond scum losers (sarc) . Whatever yo.
unsubstantiated - wrong
draw line - wrong
hyopoc - wrong
besides which , your entire post misses the points of my post.
a blast from the past ... - - - - and a glimpse into the future...
for dutch...
Cheating might be somewhat forgiveable.The lying and suing & trying to destroy people who were telling the truth makes him a huge a-hole.
I think their actions damages the reputation of their sport. However I think any involvement by government thru court cases, hearings...is idiotic.
#BelieveInLindsey #BelieveInSnyder
I, HeavenHarris, hereby pledge to my fellow JFC'rs that I will no longer give out neg-reps. All it does is cause negative things, like fights, drama, bitching, ill will, bad feelings, etc.
Love, not hate, is the answer bros and moes.
LOL Lol breaks his pledge 5 days later hahahaha
The problem with the "just let every one do it" position is that apparently not everyone gets an equal boost from PEDs. While there have been no scientific studies done, the anecdotal evidence strongly suggests people react differently when a PED is introduced into their system. Some people get a huge boost, some get a negligible boost. In a recent Sports Illustrated Article, one US Cyclist who claims he was pressured to use EPO by Armstrong said he didn't get any benefit from them at all.
So while Armstrong is clearly a world class cyclist, he may not be the best one - just the one whose body reacts the best to drugs.

The classic Nintendo Controller. I have a matching wallet. Don't say Nerds can't coordinate.
The following story is a bit long for these A-to-Z posts, but something happened Saturday that needs to be told. I won't be offended if you skip to the comments, but I think this story is hysterical.
Last week was horrific and stressful in this real life I live, such that by week's end, we were wiped out. So, halfway between a jam-packed weekend, we hired a sitter and treated ourselves to a nice dinner out at one of our favorite places, The Melting Pot.
Little did we know that it was prom weekend around these parts. Not having a kid in high school makes that kind of thing oblivious. Plus, when I was in high school, I'm pretty sure it was not the second weekend in April. Just saying. Anyway, we get there, they take us right to our table, and the evening is underway.
You know the couple that sits on the same side of the table? That's us when we're sans children. At some point, The Wife turns to me and I see something catch her eye, so I glance behind me. That's when we realized it was prom. The table had two couples, boy-girl on one side, and the same on the other. I could see one couple clearly, and there was at least a two-foot space of booth seat between them. They were seated side-by-side, no one was smiling, and the only interaction they had with each other was when they switched out dipping forks into the boiling pot between them. We had a snicker, and went on with our meal. The next part came without warning.
One of the girls decided she must use the bathroom. Well, apparently trains are "in" this season, because as she walked down the aisle between tables...her date was carrying the train of her dress. He and his hot pink vest that matched her dress. Also "in" fashion? Sequins. All over the place.
So, as she goes walking past us—again, her date carrying the back of her dress—we catch eye contact with a couple on the other side of this aisle. And that's when the evening went from good to great.
The foursome of adults were sitting like we were—on the same side as your date, sitting close together, having a good time. And the look the guy facing me made when he saw the teen guy carrying that dress train...I was in tears laughing so hard.
We were cordial when the kids were present, and we thought the night couldn't possibly get any better. Then it did.
Around 8:30pm, there began a mass exodus of dolled up girls and boys heading toward the exit. Prom awaited. The six of us—that's us plus the two other adult couples—watched the parade of dresses. Some were horrific; very few were noteworthy in the "nicely done" category. Lots of peach-orange, lots of black, and a metric shit tonne of sequins. At one point The Wife returned from the restroom, stopped at the table with the other adults, and said, "There are sequins...all over the bathroom floor." More laughter ensued. The parade continued—there had to be at least 30 couples. Suddenly, the guy I can see at the other table turns to me, eyes wide, and laughingly says, "Tattoo." I couldn't make out what it was, he was laughing so hard, and I can only imagine at this point.
We settled our bill after the exodus, and stopped to chat with the other couples for a moment, to share with them the parts they couldn't see, namely the "no talking, we're all going to sit here on our phones" scene. We all had another laugh, and one of the other guys says, "We need to do this every prom."
The scene we came upon as we stepped outside was the cherry on top of that sundae.
At least 12 couples, probably closer to 15, were about to clown car it into a stretch Hummer.
I wanted to run inside and tell the other couples, but The Wife nudged me toward the car. As I pulled away, I saw the other four adults standing outside the door to the restaurant, all of them grinning.
*License: I took all of these pictures.

The much celebrated Women's Day!
No thank you !
We don't need a 'Women's Day'!
We don't want a favor- 'Ladies first' !
We don't want a complement of 'fairer gender' !
No Thankyou Mr P. Chidambaram! We don't want women exclusive banks!
Don't absolve yourself from the responsibility of committing safety, law and order to control the wide/wild spread chauvinism, rage, dopamine overdrive of unfairer gender so that women en masse can feel like normal human beings and exercise their fundamental rights- take birth and die naturally, grow, get education, employment of their choice and live life with pride , dignity and equality....all 365 days!
Mar 9 2013: I agree with you; gender equality is non negotiable. Women have the rights to dignity, equal opportunities and freedom. These are inherent.
But that doesn't mean the international women's day shouldn't be celebrated. We have Mandela Day, Workers Day, Freedom day e.t.c.
It doesn't neccesarily mean that Mandela is hated in the other 364 days; or that workers are only catered for on workers day, or that we're all in bounds till freedom day.
Mandeep Caur
Mar 25 2013: Really appreciate your point of view Thomas! You reverence you have for mother , mother nature and in turn for female gender is admirable. I wish at least half of Indian men and those in some other Asian countries think this like that.

Your poem is beautiful n touching.Do share more if you write often.
Mar 25 2013: (facebook/the Philosophy of Philosophy) for samples of writing. For too long, women were second class to males, but in USA women can outvote men and our legislatures our slowly filling with women. I am convinced that not just the first woman president in the next election, but vice president too. Something tells me they will be fair and not legislate against male sexuality.Mar 25 2013: With 7B people, we do not have to worry about keeping DNA alive. There are more women than men, so our DNA is safer with them. They are also the incubator of this life which gives them distinct and unique rights, above and beyond a man's. It is their right to decide on keeping a fetus to term, regardless of reasoning. The "other half" of the DNA has no choice in this matter. To celebrate Women's Day would be the elevation of this right and the rejoicing of those who nurture, as dictated by nature. Women's Day would be every day if the male was consistently and equally responsible in the role of parenting. Money is not the wealth children need; The child is a canvass with the art developing based on the teaching. My 2 true teachers have been my Mother and Mother Nature.
Nature of Mother
Mother, of Nature, Bestowed to Nurture,
You Taught Me Everything I Know.
Not of Nature, But the Nature of Nature,
And Everyday I Grow.
Everything I Do, by Nature,
Is All Because of You
Everything I Do, by Nature,
Must Be Credited to You

Mother, in Heaven, Still Teaching Every Day.
I Live on Still Learning in Every Way.
Tomorrow, No Different than the Day Before.

Our life goal is to keep our DNA alive.
To a new carrier of DNA (child), women contribute:
. (1) A half of its DNA.
. (2) The whole of its body constituents.
Why not "much celebrated" ?
Mar 12 2013: I really respect your point of view W. Ying! I too have no reservations on celebrating the women kind so worth reverence . However, my submission is more like - Keeping a fast , abstinence from food to cleanse our system, while we know how important it is for our body. Hope you would understand my quest now!

Yes. Anything has an optimal point for "keeping our DNA alive".Mar 9 2013: who is the "we" here? i know a lot of women that are ready to take advantage of their gender, and even demand special treatment in a wide variety of situations. like for example "you can't talk like that to a woman". they say "we" women like to get attention, compliments, etc.
"we" are very different. so i suggest respect for personal freedom, as opposed to doing the "right" thing.
Phan Quynh
Mar 9 2013: Yes, in some aspects, women are different from men for sure. But in general, we are the same under law. If they do wrong thing, I am sure that they will be tried like men. But, as you know right now, women in many part of the world still be treated like hell under the power of men without any protection from police, law...In those countries, they women even accept their such tragic situation for their destiny of a woman!Mar 9 2013: Thanks for appreciating the thought on gender equality Feyisayo! My point is not that celebrating Women's day is a bad idea, the point is till when would we make women rejoice with such fake baits and do nothing substantial to really make difference in day to day life. We are still falling short in providing police protection to women, commit safety, policies and culture which uplifts their stance n stature in the society.

So till government does that, we don't want to be impressed by regressive, frilly and frothy measures which make no real difference! Hope that clarifies my point. :-)

LOS ANGELES - Emmylou Harris is now a Nashville icon, but 39 years ago she was a Californian making her debut album on Lania Lane in Coldwater Canyon. Released in 1975, that album, "Pieces Of The Sky," featured a then-unknown singer-songwriter named Rodney Crowell, who contributed the kickoff song, "Bluebird Wine."
Saturday night at West Hollywood's storied Troubadour club, three miles from Lania Lane, Harris and Crowell delighted a sold-out crowd with a show that featured myriad guest appearances.
The concert was a pre-release celebration for "Old Yellow Moon," the Harris/Crowell duo album due out Feb. 26, but it was also a celebration of Harris' still-evolving legacy as one of American music's most consequential recording artists.
Accompanied by guitar-slinger Jedd Hughes, Harris and Crowell performed songs from "Old Yellow Moon," including "Hanging Up My Heart," "Invitation To The Blues," "Spanish Dancer," "Dreaming My Dreams," "Chase The Feeling" and a new version of "Bluebird Wine." They also welcomed Bonnie Raitt (who sang a lovely version of John Prine's "Angel From Montgomery"), Zac Brown, Joan Osborne, Shannon McNally, Damien Rice, J.D. Souther, Shawn Camp, John Fullbright and Harris' girlhood hero, Joan Baez, to the stage.
"This is my university," said Souther, who cut his performing teeth at The Troubadour in the 1970s. Souther played "Sad Cafe," a song he wrote about the club, and one popularized by Troubadour mainstays the Eagles.

Best TM fairway ever made? I think so
Pros: Easy to hit, great off the tee. LONGGGG.
Cons: hard to find these days
As old school as these things look, I have no shame at all gaming this year after year. Still yet to find a fairway wood to knock it out of the bag, the V Steel is long, easy to hit and cheap.
If you find one on the used rack at your local retailer, I highly recommend it.
