Dia De Los Muertos Tattoos
Dia de los Muertos tattoos- what are they and why are they significant? To help us understand what they are we need to break down the term into two distinct parts namely: Dia de los Muertos and tattoos. Most of us are already familiar with tattoos but just in case you don't know what they are - these are marks made on the human body with an indelible design. These marks are made by inserting pigments into punctures made on the skin by the use of an electric needle. That said; let us now look at the term Dia de los Muertos. As you might have probably guessed, this is a Mexican term that refers to the day of the dead. By the above breakdown we can now learn that the term Dia de los Muertos tattoos stands for marks made on the human body that are meant to honour their dead loved ones.
Before we shed more light on the significance of these tattoos we need to understand a bit of history about this "day of the dead" for us to be able to appreciate the relevance of the marks. Earlier on we revealed that the term Dia de los Muertos was a Mexican term that stood for day of the dead. The question now remains, how was this day formed and how did it come to be celebrated? To answer this question, we need to go back 3,500 years ago when a group of people known as the Aztecs lived. Back then, the Aztecs had a month-long celebration to honour their deceased. The celebrations were meant to welcome the spirits of the departed souls back to earth. It was in these celebrations that they would collect and display skulls. The skulls were meant to symbolize life, death and re-birth. These are usually the marks that are used to showcase that one has Dia de los Muertos tattoos.
Spanish conquistadors soon infiltrated the land that is currently known as Mexico. They believed in the Catholic faith and they tried to convert the natives (Aztecs) to abandon their rituals and pagan observance. Unfortunately, they were unsuccessful. Unknown to them, their attempts to quash the ritual actually enabled it to evolve and even coincide with famous catholic holidays such as the All Souls day and the All Saints day. As the world continued to evolve the Aztecs were soon wiped out but their culture remained firm and evolved. Today, the people of Mexico commemorate their dead by bearing Dia de los Muertos tattoos on their bodies instead of collecting and displaying skulls as was the case with the Aztecs.
That said; here are a few things to keep in mind about the Dia de los Muertos tattoos.
·First of all, the tattoos mainly comprise of sugar skulls that are etched on the human bodies.
·Secondly, if you're not comfortable with the tattoo of a sugar skull on your body then you can remember your loved ones by embedding a tattoo of their portrait on your body, their favourite food and drinks and even their favourite toys.
·Finally, most of these tattoos are embedded into the skins of people starting from the 31st of October of every year, since this is the period that they believe that the gates of heaven open and the souls of the dead visit their loved ones on earth.
Dia de los Muertos tattoos continue to grow in popularity even though they face stiff opposition from Christians and Catholic followers. These tattoos are not showing any signs of dying down any time soon.

Abstract | Signaling events leading to mammalian sperm capacitation rely on activation/deactivation of proteins by phosphorylation. This cascade includes soluble adenylyl cyclase, an atypical bicarbonate-stimulated adenylyl cyclase, and is mediated by protein kinase A and the subsequent stimulation of protein tyrosine phosphorylation. Recently, it has been proposed that the capacitation-associated increase in tyrosine phosphorylation is governed by Src tyrosine kinase activity. This conclusion was based mostly on the observation that Src is present in sperm and that the Src kinase family inhibitor SU6656 blocked the capacitation-associated increase in tyrosine phosphorylation. Results in the present manuscript confirmed these observations and provided evidence that these inhibitors were also able to inhibit protein kinase A phosphorylation, sperm motility, and in vitro fertilization. However, the block of capacitation-associated parameters was overcome when sperm were incubated in the presence of Ser/Thr phosphatase inhibitors such as okadaic acid and calyculin-A at concentrations reported to affect only PP2A. Altogether, these data indicate that Src is not directly involved in the observed increase in tyrosine phosphorylation. More importantly, this work presents strong evidence that capacitation is regulated by two parallel pathways. One of them requiring activation of protein kinase A and the second one involving inactivation of Ser/Thr phosphatases. |

I always really love sharing amazing women that I meet with everyone. From friends of mine that have become successful entrepreneurs, talented artists, florists, the list goes on of the wonderful women I have been able to feature over here on the blog for my Working Women feature. I have been lucky to connect with such inspiring ladies and if they have been able to encourage me in small and big ways, I always think it is great to share them with the world!
Today I am excited to feature the fabulous Caroline Bragg. Caroline is a fitness and pilates personal trainer here in London. I have been able to get to know Caroline over the past few months and have discovered that she is so much more then a personal trainer. Caroline begin as an actress, has years of experience with children from working in a nursery and has been able to turn her love of fitness into her business over the past few years. I was lucky to meet her during her amazing pre natal fitness classes at FRAME and decided to invest in myself post pregnancy and have had her along my side encouraging me to get back to my healthy prenatal self since having Fleur. Caroline is always smiling, full of spunk and is one heck of a motivator. I am glad to introduce her to my Working Women series.
Tell us a bit about yourself and your business:
I actually started off as an actress. I went to stage school and loved it but always kept active ( my mum was really into aerobics in the 90's - think leotards). I trained to teach classes first as a side line in between acting jobs but enjoyed it so much that I decided to take the plunge and went head first into the fitness industry about four years ago full time. I'm now a personal trainer and Pilates instructor. I mainly work with pre and post natal clients, which I love. I work closely with Mumhood which is the love child (excuse the pun) of Frame founders Pip and Joan. I also teach on postnatal retreats in France with &breathe postnatal. For someone who hasn't had children yet, I spend a large amount of time with under one year olds!
When did you start your business of personal training ?
Full time, four years ago. It took awhile for me to go for it as I still enjoyed acting but it wasn't enough. My job has to be a passion for me and I think I wasn't OK with passions changing but I'm glad I did go for it!
What advice do you have for younger women looking to start in the industry?
When I first started I thought I needed to be a certain way in looks and manner but actually your uniqueness is your selling point. As long as you are a good communicator, you being your best is what will work!
The fitness industry has exploded over the last few years and especially with the use of Instagram there are a lot of people who aren't qualified posting workouts etc. My advice is to do as many courses, take as many classes, read articles - knowledge is power.
How would you describe the ideal client?
Someone who gives 100% and is willing. Willing to make the changes not just in the hour you see them but outside with their lifestyle. Luckily most of my clients are like this!
Do you have a trademark style of training and teaching?
I do do a lot of whooping and jazz hands but I blame stage school! But honestly I want it to be fun and light hearted. It's exercise not rocket science. It has to be enjoyable and you leave with a smile!
What is your favourite part about working freelance? What is your LEAST favourite part?
Favourite part is seeing people become happier, healthier versions of themselves. And wearing leggings everyday
Least is the the unsociable hours (4:45 alarms) and getting wet on my bike on the way to clients!
Best moment of your career so far?
Selling out the retreats last year. It was our first full year so that was ace.
What are your favorite brand for fab leggings? {important! question!}
Lulu Lemon, Sweaty Betty and Nike. All high waisted and thick material!
What is your favorite workout?
Just one?? I can't! Kettlebells, rebounding and boxing!
If working mums have 15 minutes throughout the day to squeeze in some exercise, what would you recommend?
Squats - good for butts and thighs and pelvic floors!
Tricep dips of the back of coach- toned triceps =winning at life
HIIT training- really effective in short burst of time. Choose two exercises that bring heart rate up and do 30 secs of each move with a 10 secs rest in between and repeat 4 times.
Caroline was so encouraging and full of energy during the months I took her prenatal aerobics classes that it made me want to work her even afterwards. Six months postnatal here I am, still training with Caroline! I think that has a lot to say about a person if they are positive, smiling and fun to be around, that they truly love what they are doing! It is always motivating to see how successful and happy a person is when they really change career up; from an actress to a trainer. Thank you Caroline for being so encouraging and one fab working lady!

Happy Queen's Day
You are all wearing orange, aren't you?

Had a couple of really busy days, whew... working on some analysis tools to extract information out of data, and then writing up the results. I know it sounds dry and clinical but really it has been pretty fun. Just way behind, never enough time. This has been an excellent example of W=UH in action, I went about this one way, it was hard, but workable, and yet felt "wrong", and then I had a good suggestion and went about it another way, it was suddenly easier, and now feels "right".
The big news of the day is that my daughter Jordan (22) bought a car! Yep, she has her very own spiffy little BMW 320i. Very very nice. It is a welcome addition to the motor pool :) In addition to Jordan wanting her own car and working hard to be able to buy one, the impetus for this was the upcoming change in Alexis' (15) status to a driver. (dum dum dum) Whew.
Note to self: always buy a car on the last day of the month. Nothing like having a motivated salesperson :) Old tech rules: I just (re)discovered that I can use IR to sync my Palm smartphone with my laptop! No wires, no bluetooth configuration crap, nothing. Push the button and poof it works. Yay I like it.

Not good: the GDP drops 6.1%. "Economists had predicted a drop of 4.7 percent, and the steep dip could dampen expectations that the pace of economic declines had begun to ebb. The decline was almost as sharp as in the previous quarter, when the economy shrank at a pace of 6.3 percent, its worst drop in a generation." But ... as Ann Althouse notes, it was stimulated.
I happened to watch some of President Obama's '100 days' press conference today, while waiting at the car dealership. He's a great politician, of that there is no doubt. I thought he handled the rather inane questions rather well. Unfortunately he seems to be better at handling the press than managing the economy ... at least so far.
David Letterman interviews Elon Musk of Tesla. Pretty interesting, but reinforces the general impression I always have of David Letterman, he's a jerk. Seems he's not really interested in his guests, it is all about him. Still Elon did a good job of working in some good information... and the car itself (the prototype sedan) looked beautiful :)
And so it seems the rumor of the day is the Palm Pixie / EOS / ????, a rumored smaller version of the Palm Pre, sort of a Centro with the WebOS running on it. Excellent, but I want my Pre... please?
Tim O'Reilly: reinventing the book in the age of the web. "But simply putting books onto electronic devices is only the beginning. As I've said for years, that's a lot like pointing a camera at a stage play, and calling it a movie. Yes, that's pretty much what they did in many early movies, but eventually, the tools of production and consumption actually changed the format of what was produced and consumed." Interesting, and quite true I suspect...
I'm sure you've heard about the great Air Force One photo-op fiasco, in which the plane itself was flown low over New York to get a PR shot of the plane with the Statue of Liberty in the background. You probably had the same thought as Will Campbell, why not just use Photoshop? Save Taxpayers $328,301, Prevent Nationwide WTF!? Yes We Can!
News you can use: how to be a successful evil overlord. My favorite tip, when you have the would-be-hero captured, kill him. Just pull the trigger. Yourself. Then you can laugh... ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ...
So, are Microsoft the Detroit of software? Not a nice thing to say, is it, but perhaps true... what was the last thing Microsoft did that was actually cool? [ via Daring Fireball ]
BTW, if your answer is "Windows 7", read this review of Windows 7 RC 1. I'm not saying it isn't a great advance over Vista, and perhaps I will upgrade from XP to Windows 7 someday, but I don't think it rises to cool. PS W7RC1 is available right now for your downloading pleasure...

Finally, loved this from Josh Newman, quoting Mario Andretti: "If you think you have things under control, you're not going fast enough." I believe I may be going fast enough :)

text: Just Play With the Blocks On These Turntables To Make MusicKelsey Campbell-Dollaghan9/03/14 6:03pmFiled to: beat bloxPer Holmquisttangible interfacesturntablesblocksmusic43EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink We've heard a lot about tangible interfaces for gadgets lately—but what about tangible interfaces for music? Per Holmquist, a Swedish designer, built just that: Beat Blox, a "turntable" that makes beats based on where you place tiny blocks on its face. Advertisement Holmquist, who created the project for his thesis at Beckmans College of Design, describes the project as "an interactive music machine that offers a free creative expression without requiring prior knowledge" on his website. How does it work? According to Creative Applications, each machine contains five digital distance sensors in its wooden arm. These sensors interpret the locations of the blocks and relay that data back through the Arduino-based system, creating music based on certain pre-programmed metrics. GIF Unfortunately, we don't know much more than that for now. But frankly, just like the system, you don't need to know much about how it works to see how fun it clearly is. Just check out the videos of people noodling around with the turntables at the final thesis show. [Creative Applications; Per Holmquist]Reply4 repliesLeave a reply

Like all fellow bookworms, I have a TBR list that's long enough to keep me from purchasing books for a long, long time - and yet, I just went to the bookstore yesterday and picked up two new hardcover YA novels :P And I feel no shame, because I know all of you - yes, ALL OF YOU - are guilty of doing the exact same thing, if not coming home with even larger book hauls (honestly, if I could find the 2nd gift card I received for Christmas, I wouldn't have stopped at 2 books XD). I really want to get back into reading this year, one of the reasons being I love writing about books and posting reviews on here. Here are just a small handful of books currently on my TBR list.
#1: Unbecoming by Jenny Downham! I remember eyeing this book the last time I was able to visit the bookstore (before Christmas, when I wasn't allowed to buy myself anymore new stuff and had to resist the urge to buy books with every fiber of my being). Something about this book stuck with me, and I found myself being drawn towards it again during my recent shopping trip to Coles. I think one aspect that has me curious is the grandmother in this story with Alzheimers. My grandmother does not suffer from this affliction, but she does have trouble with her memory, so I can understand to some degree the frustrations that exist alongside any sort of disease that impacts the memory of a loved one. It looks like a really interesting read, and I'm sure I'll be diving into it fairly soon.
#2: The Problem With Forever by Jennifer L. Armentrout! This is the second book I picked up yesterday from Coles. It isn't one I had heard of before, but it's one I saw listed as one of the 'Top Teen Titles of 2016" on the Chapters/Indigo website, and I decided to take a look. I think it's because of my recent enjoyment of the title If I Was Your Girl that has me intrigued by the female protagonist and what sort of event/tragedy might have happened to her..
#3: Scrappy Little Nobody by Anna Kendrick! I'm a bit of a sucker for any film starring Anna Kendrick, though I regret to admit that I haven't actually seen too many of them just yet. I really want to see The Last Five Years, and that movie's on my To Be Watched list for sure :P I received this book for Christmas, and it's the only non-fiction title that made its way onto my Christmas list. I'm really interested in learning more about her, as an actress and as a person, because she's got such an awesome personality and I bet this book is going to contain plenty of laughs.
#4: Exit, Pursued By A Bear by E. K. Johnston! Admittedly this is a book I've already started reading, but I've barely made it 30 pages in, so I'm still counting it as part of my TBR list, because I've been having a lot of trouble getting back into reading lately, which is why my GoodReads yearly reading goal is a lot smaller this year. But I was captivated by the plot of this book, and it was the first book I asked for around the holidays, and I was thrilled to unwrap it on Christmas morning. I'm pretty positive that this book is a modern interpretation of Shakespeare's A Winter's Tale, mainly because the title is a line from that script and the main character's last name is Winter, but I haven't read or seen the play myself so I'm not 100% certain. I highly recommend picking up this title, and I haven't even finished reading it yet! It just screams "good read" to me!
#5: Heartless by Marissa Meyer! Last autumn, I binged the entire Lunar Chronicles audio books, and I absolutely loved the series. I even gave a copy of Cinder to my sister-in-law for Christmas because I knew she would enjoy the series just as much as I did. I was super excited when I heard that Marissa Meyer was releasing another book, and because of the overall size and cost of the book, I made sure to put it on my Christmas list instead of picking it up for myself. Now I own it, and it's on my TBR list!
Looks like 2017 is off to a great start when it comes to the books I have to look forward to! :D What books to you currently have on your TBR lists? What are you currently reading right now? Have any books that you're dying to recommend? Comment or Tweet me @KacieCruise - I'd love to hear from you :)

Along the edge of Chinatown near the 880 freeway stands a running frieze of colorful murals. This one caught my fancy because it blends two animals. Wouldn't you love to see this in the wild? It's also pretty cool that the artists did not cover over the old Ballantine's ad. The sticks define a traffic lane for vehicles zooming onto a freeway on-ramp. I had to look out for traffic from all directions to get a shot without cars. Makes you wonder how the heck the Dragon School artists painted this wall since stepping back to look at your work would definitely be hazardous.

This is probably my most ambitious attempt at an animated adaptation for VG Cats. I flipped out when I first saw my copy of the VG Cats book and noticed that Scott re-drew some of his comics so that they had a more modern look which opens up some opportunities beyond my original 7 episode limit.
Now that this is done I'm going to get to work at making "Doctor Whooves and the Assistant." The audio series found on youtube.
Original comic: http://www.vgcats.com/com ics/?strip_id=269
Other comic: http://www.vgcats.com/com ics/?strip_id=271
Rated 5 / 5 stars
always loved VG cats.
And i liked the futurama joke, "welcome to the world of tomarrow"!
Rated 5 / 5 stars
How is Leo alive?
I think Leo might be god of dumbness if he comes back randomly like that...That means there is another one like me.(grabs sniper rifle) This Universe is only big enough for one ultimate stupid person...btw keep the awsome work up! :3
Rated 5 / 5 stars
I aborted you from time...
Best line ever!!!
I personally like "twelve stamps and you get anal. It's like a free sub! Only it's buttsex!"
Rated 5 / 5 stars
I've always loved vgcat comics! And seeing them animated always makes my day. But my favorite part has to be after the second comic. "This again?" "Hold on, I might have something here...........There. This should stop your bitchin." That's F***ing hilarious!

Yes, they should nerf the droprate after 5.2
Yes, they should delete it from loot tables after 5.2
Yes, they should nerf the droprate after MoP
Yes, they should delete it from loot tables after MoP
No, everything should stay as it is
Just when I thought I'd seen it all, up to but not including attack ships on fire off Orion's shoulder, I come across this topic. The poll results, however, give me some measure of hope for the future of humanity.
Get it through your head that by the time 5.3 rolls around at least 20% of people you see in random BGs will be riding this "rare" mount and every WSG you run will be like Jurassic Park. Blizzard haven't nerfed the drop rates of these before, what makes this Direhorn so different? Oh wait, you have one. By the time you want this nerf to happen the "damage" will be done and everyone who is half serious about wanting to farm one of these will have one. If that makes it rare then you have a different definition of the word than the rest of the world. Just becuase a mount isn't gifted to by hitting exalted with a faction doesn't mean it's rare and unique.
If 20% of peoples effectively have this mount (Btw most of the players wont even farm it), they wont ride it cause it wont be rare, so we wont see 20% of the peoples with it in battlegrounds, get over your failed theories, Blizzard havn't nerfed the drop rates of these before ? These what ? What are you talking about ?
No need to seriously farm it to get it when you can one shot them with a level 95.

Sigh, you are oblivious to everyone's point, but here I go one last time. You say "hey, got this new rare mount, wouldn't it be cool if all rare mounts keep their exclusivity so they are always cool?". Me and everyone else say " but Direhorns aren't going to be rare in the first place so who cares". They didn't take out the Raven Lord when Anzu became soloable. Ashes of A'lar is still ingame even though Kael'thas is getting murdered by hundreds of soloists every week. The amount of care Blizzard has shown about keeping old mounts exclusive so far has been next to none. The Direhorns are not going to initiate a new design philosophy from them. If I were you I would just enjoy your mount for the next few weeks while they are kinda rare and maybe one day one of these http://www.wowhead.com/item=50818/invincibles-reins will drop for you.
In what way wouldn't it be fair? It's not like they are hard to kill with a group of 2-3 people. Do i want every rare mount i got removed? No, people should have the same chance as everyone else. And besides this is NOT a rare mount, was never intended to be. If you had 1 chance each week with a lower droprate i'ts a rare mount, hell even the white primal bone raptor will become A LOT rarer than these mounts.
This thread is so pointless.
I have the mount already. I'll ride it even if everyone is riding one, because I like it.
I don't care for exclusivity, hell is even better when everyone is riding one, because now I can enjoy the awesomeness of seeing everyone around me riding an epic triceratops mount, nothing bugs me the most than people riding ugly mounts just because they are rare thinking they are hot because they are over a shiny piece of yellow-purple-orange crazyness. (yes, ashes of a'lar, you are ugly and your color hurts my eyes)
It is not deisgned to be rare, its designed to take time before people get it. It drops from guys with a respawn rate of less than an hour, and there are 5 of them, how can you say its meant to be rare? Seriously...
Time-Lost Proto drakes was designed to be rare. 6 hour respawn on ONE SINGLE MOB IN THE ENTRIE WORLD and that respawns was SHARED (meaning the mob may not respawn in over a day).
This mounts are not designed to be rare, and its fine, not every new mount needs to be rare.
The stone drakes were not rare, half the populations of servers had one in a few weeks.
Over 90% of the people voting in this poll telling you that you are wrong, seriously, stop it.
Not everything needs to be rare.
---------- Post added 2013-03-08 at 02:44 PM ----------
You are completely wrong.
Not every one wants to be a special snowflake, only a very small people do, and they are not the people i would like to hang with.
You need to be very selfish to want to be a special snowflake.
Some of us would actually want EVERYONE int he world to have as many things as we have.
I would be the happiest person in the world if everyone has AT LEAST everything i have.
---------- Post added 2013-03-08 at 02:47 PM ----------
I use the Frostwolf in my Orc Shaman. I use the buyable little yak in the rest.
For flying i use the Stonehide mount, the black drake one or the Shieldwall armored one.
I have plenty of rarer mounts, but i like those (the wolf i use it because i want to imagine my Orc Shaman as part of the Frostwolf clan, even when i dont play in a RP server).
I personally use a mod that gives me a random mount when i mount up. I don't give a toss what mount I'm on 90% of the time.
The other 10% I'm playing my druid. Flight form ftw.
Shadestaff - a fantasy novel series. #Shadestaff
D'aaw, special snowflake wishes to be special, and unique, well too bad for you as seeing as others can get the mount aswell, it isnt a "oh yeah, i got such and such item, now remove it plox Blizz kthxbai" - no, it doesn't work like that, now get off your high horse and stop sobbing over the fact that more than just one person can have the new mounts
I always thought drops rates were always crap on this kind of stuff. Blizz should buff the in-expansion drop rate (not to anything like 100%, but maybe 5 or 10%) and then nerf it to .3% in the next X.0.0 expansion patch.
Thinking like this we could say that every mount has been designed to take time before people have it, cause if you farm each mount of the game you'll almost obviously finish by having it.
Having ONE of thoses mounts using the same model doesn't make the others less rare, as i said, the rarity of mounts is designed case by case.
I'm not completely wrong, everyone wants to be a special snowflake, saying "HAHAHA U SPECIAL SNOwFLAKE YOU WANT RARE MOUNT QSHDKIPOQS" is a way to be a special snowflake "HEY HEY LOOK AT ME I DONT CARE ABOUT RARITY I AM SO WISE".
I honestly don't care about everyone in the world having as many things as we have, just, it would be cool if it was the case that's all, the fact is that we're talking about a mount. It can't be unique, but it can be rare, and i prefer rare thing, it's in human natures, and that's why unique jewels and clothes for exemple are sold for incredible ammount of money.
For exemple, if everyone in the game could have infinite ghost iron, it wouldn't be a problem for me, (i'm a miner).
But a mount is in game what are jewels in reality, i wouldn't buy expensive jewels cause it's too expensive but that's the same principle.
Never said that i should be the only one to get it, i only said that it should be rarer after MoP/5.2, cause it would be more fair regarding peoples who farmed it on the first days.
You must be new. Most rare mounts become common with time.
I'm guessing you got one and now wanna be special until the end of WoW? Yeah, not gonna happen.
I've killed 9 of them so far, no mount yet. Also they hot-fixed them, insanely hard to solo now that 8 second fear will leash it >.<
You say that I'm cold, and sometimes I'm out of control.
They wont be unique, give it a few days and people hit exalted with kirin / horde vers and have the golden direhorn

When I used a Fumoto valve on my Subaru, owners used to file a notch in the threads so that 99.5% of all the crankcase oil drained out. Ed
If I remember it correctly, the black end tip of the OEM Allen drain plug is not a magnet. It's black paint applied from inside of the oil pan while the drain plug is installed and stick out. But I could be wrong as I didn't test it while the plug was out.
Hex head oil drain plug should be a flange bolt with larger diameter rim to apply even pressure to the soft aluminum crush washer:
But if the picture shown is correct by Med Center Mazda, the hex head oil drain plug is not to be a good drain plug as the hex head doesn't have larger diameter rim to cover the aluminum crush washer unless the washer is very narrow:
I don't like Fumoto valve for the fact that they're lying to our face claiming that the threads don't extend into the oil pan. It may be a little convenient to drain the oil, but it definitely will prevent draining out old oil and metal shavings more completely which is something I really don't like.
When I used a Fumoto valve on my Subaru, owners used to file a notch in the threads so that 99.5% of all the crankcase oil drained out. Ed
I use a Fumoto on two Subies, and have one for the CX-5. You're talking about a thimble-full of oil in the depression of the oil pan, that the longer Fumoto might block. I let my engines drain for 60 minutes, and they still drip, drip, drip after all that time, with a hot engine. If there's metal chunks in the oil pan, they will drop out on the first drain with the stock oil plug. (But only if they are right next to the drain plug hole. There isn't enough speed of flow an inch or more away to wash a chunk of metal out of the pan). Any chunks created after that point means your engine is going to fail anyway...
I guess it's now normal forum behavior (every forum) for some people to obsess. I see it on equipment review, cycles, photo gear, flashlights, etc. sites.
No answer for you, have to wait until the next oil change.
Maybe 'clearly' in speculation, but in reality it is NOT a magnetic plug. I just went to the garage to check.
Regarding rust, can't see how it would rust in the pan with the oil on it. Not to worried about the outside.

Where did you guys buy the crush washer?
I got mine at the dealer but, will look to our advertisers in the future. Ed
Technically these are not "Crush "washers but, flat aluminum washers. Ed
The site sponsor at the top of this page is a good source for maintenance parts. I can't get the link above to guide me to the right page. Try this link instead.
Maybe the site owner or a Mod could advise Med Center Mazda to change the link?

On the Fumoto website FAQ section it mentions you don't need to file the valve's threads down.
Q: Does the Fumoto Engine Oil Drain Valve protrude into the oil pan and impede drainage of the engine oil?
A: No. Fumoto Engine Oil Drain Valves are designed to fit individual drain pan specifications and in almost every situation will not extend into the drain pan. However, replacement or aftermarket oil pans may differ from the original oil pan specification and as a result the valve stem may protrude further into oil pan than normal.
Sounds like Fumoto valve engineers have rectified the problem of leaving 1/4 quart of oil in some crankcases. Yaaaa. Ed
I thought this topic has been discussed earlier at post #192? Like some one said, Fomoto lies to our face as many users had found out their Fumoto Engine Oil Drain Valve does protrude into the oil pan and impede drainage of the engine oil! This is also true to CX-5 application. You can measure the thread length of the valve and oil pan to verify.
Very informative link about Fumoto drain valve although this "Mythbusters: Fumoto Engine Oil Drain Valve" is for a 2008 Subaru Impreza WRX STi:
Also this observation is consistent with the statement I saw before for the CX-5 with a Fumoto drain valve:Originally Posted by NateCal

If you've never heard of Rodney Friedman or his San Francisco Bay area–based firm, Fisher Friedman Associates (FFA), it's probably because he and his associates were all but dropped from merchant-built housing in favor of architects designing the Mediterranean-style homes that now dominate subdivisions across the West. Even so, Friedman's unwavering commitment to modernism in residential architecture (especially attached housing), which he helped pioneer and fully establish in the mid-1960s before its popular demise, is paying off as that design style is slowly but undoubtedly rising from the ashes. "Others may have been [committed to modern design] at one time, but we're still locked into it as a fundamental part of what we do," he says.
Interestingly, Friedman credits new nonprofit and public housing projects—in addition to a savvy class of younger city dwellers—with leading the way in modern design's recent resurgence. "They're more friendly to modern architecture," he says. Since being shut out of subdivisions, his philosophy and practice have moved into multifamily and university student residences, community and commercial buildings, a few custom homes, and mixed-use projects.
Among his favorites is Golden Gateway Commons, a Builder's Choice grand award winner in 1982 (one of 11 awards FFA won that year) that sits on a bayfront infill site in San Francisco. FFA has scaled back in size since its heyday and moved across the bay to Emeryville, but it has not lost its grip on modernism and modernism's influence on architectural design. "So I don't have the biggest office," Friedman says. "I want to be in the history books."

One of Puerto Rico's first teen idols, Chucho Avellanet has remained active as a television producer, film star, and regular performer at the island's top hotels. Avellanet became the first Latin American artist to perform during the internationally televised Miss Universal competition. A native of Mayaguez, Puerto Rico, Avellanet first attracted attention in the mid-'60s as a member of Trio Los Duendes.

In honor of the 2017 Martin Luther King, Jr. Day of Service, we honor super-volunteer Karen Milne, who dedicates her time and expertise to Be The Match®.
Show ContentTypically, when someone considers volunteering their time, they align with an organization or cause that has personally impacted their life. For Be The Match skills-based volunteer Karen Milne, the opposite scenario occurred – with no prior connection to the mission, she started volunteering her time and talents to Be The Match, and has impacted the organization and our employees in ways we couldn't have imagined.
It all began when Karen retired from her career of 31 years as a legal assistant in a downtown law firm and knew that she wanted to spend her days volunteering in some capacity. Looking for opportunities to help, she thought of the NMDP/Be The Match as her firm had represented both for a few years. Mutual friends between her previous employer and Be The Match Foundation led to a phone call and quick realization that Karen would be a perfect volunteer for the annual Be The Match Gala. With experience in planning large events and campaigns, what started out as an intent to sporadically volunteer in her free time has led to an annual four-month commitment to organizing the Be The Match Gala Auction.
Working to help the present and future
Since 2013, Karen has given over 580 hours of her time to helping organize not only the Annual Gala's auction, but also to mentor Be The Match Foundation service interns. Often referred to as "The Great Connector" among Foundation employees, Karen is able to lead the service intern team over the summer in assisting with the upcoming Gala, and connect their work with that of the core Foundation team. Her leadership has allowed the service interns to thrive, and gain valuable experience each summer in their work with the Foundation.
"By example, my parents taught me to always give back. This is a meaningful way to fulfill giving back. There is an anonymous quote that says, 'A person's most valuable asset is not a head full of knowledge; but a heart full of love, an ear ready to listen and a hand willing to help others.' I want to always be that person and Be The Match helps me do that," Karen says.
The Exception to the Rule
A typical volunteer for Be The Match gives approximately 17 hours per year, ranging in positions from in-person registration volunteers, event-day volunteers, and volunteers like Karen – who help with event preparation. Each year, Be The Match Foundation looks for volunteers they refer to as "Go Getters" to work on the annual gala. Being a "Go Getter" is more of a state of mind than anything. They are motivated individuals who go out of their way to make an impact on the service they're offering.
While Karen technically volunteers as a "Go Getter", her contribution of time and expertise goes far beyond the expectations of the role – she is the epitome of "the exception to the rule". While she knows that she is in no way obligated to help out as much as she does, Karen still spends hours each year dedicated to the Be The Match mission – which includes spreading awareness. Her contributions are irreplaceable, and appreciated more than she knows.

Why I do what I do for Be The Match
Show ContentAs told by Jeff, donor and advocate
"Save this girl's life and I'll be an advocate to the cause for the rest of mine." This was the short prayer whispered just before I was anesthetized to harvest my bone marrow that was perfectly matched to a sixteen-year-old girl fighting leukemia. Eight years later, I'm please to share that my recipient, Kim is living life to the fullest with my adopted immune system. 100% engrafted and cancer-free!
Within a few days of the procedure life returned to normal, but my appreciation for it was different. Somewhere out there was a young lady fighting for her life and I knew that her family was asking themselves the same questions that I was. Were my cells good enough? What would happen if they weren't? At the very least I knew that the procedure would give this family something that they had longed for, which has been confirmed by countless other families fighting a blood cancer. For many a bone marrow transplant can be a cure, but for all it provides hope.
To me, a bone marrow transplant is the perfect fusion of fate, science and miracle. Fate, to know that a compatible stranger chose to join a bone marrow registry; science, to facilitate the process; and miracle, to know that these life generating transplanted cells can alter the course of another person's mortality. Believing this – I had to get involved further.
I started my advocacy at marrow drives, lending a hand to dismiss the fears about the donation process. As we all benefit from talking to others with firsthand experience; attending these drives helped educate and answer questions of those interested but concerned about the procedure. Several people join the registry, as I did, for someone they know who is in need of a transplant. At these drives, I help folks see the "Pay It Forward" concept. Although you may not be a match for the person you know, you could be for someone else in need, just as another person joining at another drive somewhere out there may be a match for your acquaintance.
I am involved with the CIBMTR (Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research) which is the research program of Be The Match. As a consumer advocate, I've participated over the last five years helping to translate information, such as outcomes from a clinical trial into a readable format for the typical lay person to understand. It was an honor to be asked this past year to co-chair this advocacy group.
I'm also very proud of the money raised by co-chairing a local Be The Match Walk+Run event for the past three years. These events bring together survivors, caregivers, patients and donors to celebrate victories, honor those lost and help recruit new potential donors to the registry.
Finally, I take the most pride in my volunteering efforts as a stem cell courier. The transplant process is a logistical orchestra of physicians, scientists, lab techs, collection center personnel and transplant hospital staff all coming together for a patient in need. It is a privilege to hand-carry these coolers containing someone's "second chance" from their altruistic donor to their intended recipient. A trained volunteer courier is as close as it gets to being Santa Claus.
If you read this chances are you're already somehow involved with the cause. Mine are but a few of the many ways to help and I encourage all to engage. Maybe it's writing to congressional members in support of NMDP/Be The Match's legislative activities; or it's reaching out to a local recruiter and helping in your community. Whether you're a caregiver, a long term survivor or a fellow donor – we all have unique experiences that are vital to the next patient in need. As for me, I'll keep holding up my end of that prayer.

The dangerous struggle between workers and their party masters
For three hours the crowd swelled with new arrivals: miners from Silesia wearing their traditional long black coats and plumed czaka, railway workers from Lublin, bus drivers from Pulawy. Hundreds of thousands strong, they spilled out into side streets, waiting patiently in the early twilight while the tender strains of a Chopin piano concerto wafted from a loudspeaker. They had come to Gdansk to honor the memory of 45 workers killed by police and army bullets ten years before in riots along the...

Product notities
Multifaceted musical personality Viktor Krauss has been the backbone for such artists as Lyle Lovett, Elvis Costello and Dolly Parton. As an iontegral member of those well respected groups, Krauss often served as bassist and musical director. On II, Krauss displays his musical prowess with his original cinematic compositions and superbly executed bass works. From the low rumble acceleration into the gleaming guitar driven glide of the opener through six more richly textured instrumentals and three stunning vocal tracks, II reflects Krauss's restless curiosity and masterful ability to integrate his interest in film scores, jazz, rock, R&B and pop.
