|Topic Review (Newest First)
|If it helps any..I used to only run holley or demon carbs, got into a money tight sometime last year and had to replace my holley 650 double pumper mech. secondary with a cheap off the shelf eldrbrock 600 (1405) and i love the carb! Matter of fact replaced another trucks carb w/an eldr also (1406) and havent had a problem yet!!
|Haven't had much luck with the web search. Haven't had a lot of luck with qjets either so far. What would stink is to commit to a change and modify everything only to want to change it back later.
I wouldn`t say it wasn`t all I was hoping for. I did attempt to adjust the electric choke but it still acted the same. Since SMI is a indepedant company I felt like maybe he wasn`t putting enough attention to detail into the carbs.
Jet is a major company who handles many methods of fuel delivery so I thought maybe they were a little more stricter in quality control but I could be wrong. I sold that carb to my best friend and he runs it on his Vortec 350. It`s really a strong runner and it`ll plant you hard in the seat. It has RHS Vortec heads, a comp roller cam, jet hot headers, 10:1 compression. A
TH350 auto trans, 3.42 gears with positraction. It`s in a `84 cutlass 2 door and it`s his daily driver. His work place is 20 miles there so that`s a 40 mile round tripper 5 to 6 days a week. He can fill it up on a sunday night on his way into work and not have to refill it again until the next sunday night which is pretty good for a hot rod, but that`s one of the nice benefits of a Quadrajet. I`ve ran Holley`s, Edelbrocks, Demons, and I`ll never fool with another one of the three again. Quadrajets are what I started out with and what I returned to.
|I had that happen on an Edelbrock 650 and had to adjust the electric choke. It was just staying on too late is all.
|Doesn't sound like it was all you were hoping for.
|I used a SMI Quadrajet. I was fairly satisfied with it. The only issue with it was the electric choke. When it was connected to a power source and you started the car cold, it would kick on fast idle and stay there a long time. Then when it finally came down to normal idle and I could be sitting at a red light or going down the road. All of a sudden out of no where the high idle would kick back on and the car would take off or at a stop sign and I`d be holding the brakes down with both feet trying to keep it from taking off. Finally I disconnected it and tied it open. It`s still in use today and it`s been a good carb. Looking back on it now I kind of wish I would have just gotten a Jet model. You could do a web search on summit and jegs Quadrajets just to see what those who have bought one think of them.
More Carb Questions-Qjet, Edelbrock, Jet, SMI-Pros And Cons
I HAVE to replace my carb, and I want to make the best choice. In Qjets thers Tomco for 250, Summit and Jegs for around 300, Jet and SMI for around 400. Or for about 500 I can go with a manifold and carb from Edelbrock and others.
I have no experience with the aftermarket carbs, only the Qjet, and I can't say it has been a great experience.
I know the battle of the carbs has been beat to death.
I'm looking for pros and cons of going aftermarket and maybe experience with the above suppliers of Qjets.
I don't want to spend 300-400 and be sorry. Same for aftermarket.

Men's Soccer Falls at Cleveland State, 3-0
By Rachel Buck (@GBRachel)
CLEVELAND, Ohio. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) – Three first half goals helped propel the Cleveland State men's soccer team to its first Horizon League win of the season, topping Green Bay, 3-0, on Saturday afternoon at Krenzler Field.
The win improved the Vikings to 4-9 overall and 1-2 in the Horizon League, while Green Bay dropped to 6-3-3 overall and 1-1-1 in the conference.
The Phoenix put the first two shots of the match on the scoreboard midway through the opening half, including a shot on goal by Lawrence Talery (Coon Rapids, Minn.) in the 21st minute that was collected by CSU keeper Nick Ciraldo.
However, Cleveland State responded and netted its first goal of the match in the 25th minute. James Howe collected a pass from Admir Suljevic at the top of the box and snuck it past Green Bay's Kyle Ihn (Wales, Wis.) to put the hosts ahead, 1-0.
Six minutes later Sergio Manesio scored his first of two goals in the match. Sulijevic again set up the shot, passing to Manesio who sent it home from the top of the box. A header goal by Manesio in the 43rd minute added to the Vikings lead, as the squad went into the break with a 3-0 lead and 5-3 advantage in shots. Green Bay led in corner kicks during the opening stanza, 5-1.
It was a quiet scoring second half, with neither team adding to the scoreboard. Green Bay managed two shots and three corners in the half, compared to eight shots and four corners by Cleveland State.
For the match, Green Bay owned an 8-5 advantage in corner kicks, while the Vikings led shots, 13-5. Ihn played the first half in net and allowed three goals with one save before Dary DeWalt (Milwaukee, Wis.) entered for the second half, making one save. Sabastian Xiong (Cottage Grove, Wis.) led the Phoenix with two shots.
Green Bay returns to action on Tuesday, hosting Drake at 2:30 p.m. at Aldo Santaga Stadium.

text: Kind of an overlap here in the Bulls Defense thread. No, the Bulls are not going to beat the Pistons in a 7-game series. I take the Pistons in 5 or 6. Too many mismatches for the Bulls. Rip and Billups would totally abuse their backcourt and Sheed, Webber, Maxiel are just too much for them in the post. You want to know who will do well in the post-season then look at road records. Good playoff teams always know how to win on the road. The Bulls don't have that kind of toughness yet.

Hope they let it go in my buddies stocked pond like they claimed. :frown:
But they eat these things down here.
They burrow in the mud and wiggle there tongue and bite fish in half when they get lured close.
Alligator snapping turtle I think it is. These things get big as a friggen truck.
Wade in the waters down here and they will take your toe off in a heart beat.
Yup dry land for me. :)

Fire kills husband of missing Utah woman, 2 boys
This story totally broke my heart. Can't imagine the agony Susan Powell's parents are going through.
So tragic. I know that he was never charged or convicted of a crime, but those kids should never have been in his care -- supervised visits or not.
What a shame. There are no words - this was cruel and selfish.
I guess what he really proved is that both of those statements were patently untrue. Those poor little boys.
The social worker - my first reaction was- if only she had kept them by her side. My second reaction - if she had then she would probably be dead too. From the details given it seems pretty clear he was going to carry out this explosion no matter what. In fact I am somewhat surprised he didn't make sure she was included in the blast.
Wow, this is really a terrible tragedy I had a gut feeling he was behind Susan's death, and shouldn't be trusted with those kids...It's too bad there wasn't enough evidence to convict him for Susan's disappearance. My heart goes out to Susan's family.
Those poor children!
What a monster their father was.
My sympathy to the Cox family; and to all the people who tried to protect the boys.
They are suffering terrible guilt.
This makes it sound like the social worker was not doing her job. According to the paper here (this took place outside of Seattle) - Josh Powell grabbed the kids from her as soon as they arrived, slammed the door in her face and locked it. She called 911 immediately.
Clearly this was premeditated. What a vile act that this worthless slime killed his children (in addition to probably killing his wife) instead of just committing suicide.
I can't imagine what Susan Powell's parents must be going through.
This is a nightmare of epic proportions.
I had to read the headline over and over before I could even grasp it. What a tragedy.
There have been some articles reporting that one of the children was beginning to talk about his mom's disappearance - telling people about a camping trip where (paraphrasing) mommy was in the trunk and then she disappeared.
This guy knew his number was up and so the coward took those kids with him. I like to believe they are with their mom again and he's in his special hell.
When I read the story, I immediately thought of the Zachary Bagby case in Canada. If you've never seen the documentary, Dear Zachary: A Letter to a Son About His Father, this case is similar.
I hope Josh Powell rots in hell.
That movie was so heart wrenching. It definitely comes to mind.
That documentary was so sad that I cried all day after watching it!
That ASShole didn't have to take those baby boys with him. Those poor little boys.
The articles are varied - one says the kids ran out of the car as soon as she pulled up at the curb. They were already inside when she reached the front door. Another article said he pulled the kids inside and blocked the social worker from entering before locking the door.
I guess he figured an adult would notice the gasoline smell right away (which she did) but the kids wouldn't notice or interfere. He was probably afraid she'd be able to stop him or get the kids back out if he didn't shut her outside. The kids were excited, so they did what kids do - hurry ahead.
The social worker was lucky she went back to the car to phone her supervisor or she could have been caught in the blast. I don't blame her for the situation, but apparently she (or he?) is traumatized.
Well. That answers whether or not HE was involved in his wife's disappearance.
FigureSpins: I would think the social worker would be traumatized. I hope s/he is on paid leave and gets some therapy time. What a thing to witness, even setting aside the 'there but for the grace of God' aspect.
Absolutely! If the social worker WASN'T traumatized, I'd be concerned about his/her health. I just meant that it was reported by the agency that s/he was traumautized.
It's come up on my Netflix recommendations list a bunch of times, so after reading this thread earlier I decided to watch it.
Absolutely heartwrenching, and at times hard to watch. I definitely recommend it.
Josh Powell deserves whatever he gets in the afterlife, if there is such a thing. I can't imagine how anyone would want to kill their own children. It just boggles the mind.
And I, too, hope that social worker is on paid leave and being offered the help she undoubtedly needs. I don't think this was her fault at all.
if any access - it should have been supervised at a facility that follows the SVN guidelines.. thus ensuring the children could visit their father in a safe setting, with safety protocols and trained staff..
She is very fortunate to be alive, he was clearly determined to do this no matter what.
unfortunately most of the lethalities over the past couple of years of children in Supervised visitation situations have been when done in the community or in the home and not in a secure setting with trained staff.. seriously if the parent needs to be supervised it should be in a safe setting not in a home..
Awful. Just thinking about how he killed those two innocent children makes me sick to my stomach. And my heart goes out to Susan's grandparents, who lost not only their child but now their two grandchildren because of this monster. If there was even a shred of doubt that he killed her, it's gone now.
I hope the social worker gets the support and help she needs. What a terrible thing to go through.
To those sweet boys and their mother (who is surely gone) RIP together. To Dad: unless you had some mental illness you are one selfish, cruel Pr...nevermind. And many, many hugs and blessings to the grandparents and everyone who loved that family (dad included.)
this is on the news right now...apparently both boys had multiple hatchet wounds on their necks and torsos...but that the blows didn't kill them, carbon monoxide poisoning (from the fire) did.
I did too. I have never cried so hard because of a film in my life, and I definitely recommend it to everyone. I came away from it devastated but so admiring of the grandparents, who have been through so much but remain so strong.
These kinds of acts leave me completely speechless. What he did is just unspeakably evil. I don't know what else can be said.
My immediate gut reaction was "he did this to get back at his in-laws and social services".
My second reaction was to hope they continue their child porn case against his father. Since his arrest, I've always wondered if he was connected in any way to Susan's disappearance.
Good Lord!!! Too bad he died because prisoners are parents too and he would have deserved everything they would have done to him. The Cox family must be in hell right now. My prayers go out to them.
Which means that they died in agony and pain.

Detroit @ Sacramento Nov 8 10:30PM This ones still listed for ESPN as well as FSN locally.
I'd like to see Brahma matched up with Artest.
that would be sweeet!
In a well oiled Pistons machine this would be a romp by Detroit, but the wind of changes of the NBA will put dirt in the Pistons engine. I'm sorry guys I'm really for the first time down on this league and it will take a toll on these Pistons. I feel real bad about this Pistons chances of getting a win on this west coast trip. going 0-4 would hurt for the short but in the long run this team will be fine. The Pistons as a whole fought hard last night, but the short leash on Sheed will be there short coming. Sacto is hurting with the lost of Miller, but this team just like Utah will be up for this game and when that happens team all of the sudden start shooting a very high % vs the Pistons. This will be a close game (when it should be a rout by Detroit) like the Utah battle I think they will come up short on hot shooting by Bibby and Artest. Sacto 98 Pistons 95 I HOPE FEELING I"M WRONG!!!!!!
I'd love to see that! I'm sure Arsetest would back down again like he did against Ben. Then, once he was safe and sound behind a wall of players from both teams, he'd act like he was the man.
I think it's about time CB start to get hot and shoot better. He better be......
Chauncey is tired, man. He played 8 pre-season game for the love of pete!
This is cool. I'll be able to watch the game and chat with you all. looking forward to it.
And need I point out that it was eight games in a row too?
What's with everyone changing their names?... it's getting hard to follow.
It's a fad like wearing addidas with no shoe strings in em', the pet rock and the invisible dog walker. Look closely...each name is a derivative of the originial with a Star Wars Twist.
Yeah, but you'll never hear that from CB. He doesn't make excuses.
...They said Black people were a fad once upon a time.....
You guys quit worrying about Chauncey. If we go 0-4 he won't take it that hard.
i believe tayshaun had one of his best games of his career last year in sactown. hopefully he can repeat that. sheed should get whatever he wants if he feels like it. they have no answer for bigs as bogut and charlie v demonstrated against the kings last week (a game i managed to see) pistons should win this comfortably.
I'd like to see Tay involved in more PLAYS not only isos he can create points on jumpers, off the dribble, and he can create for others. Hope the double-double Sheed will be in Sactown as well.
With Brad Miller out, they are starting Sharif Abdul Rahim at center who is averaging about 5.5 boards a game so far. Tay and Sheed just have to keep Artest and Kenny Thomas in check as they are grabbing 9 and 8 boards a game respectively. Sheed should get off as long as he mixes up his reportoire and wears a mask and muzzle to hide his gestures and mouth. You know the sactown fans will bait him...
He won't do that against Ronnie

Whilst researching the previous post I came across this website regarding the project to record all the monumental inscriptions in the Manchester General Cemetery. Great website, beautifully presented and with lots of information.
What would the genealogy world do without volunteers such as these. Browsing the website they haven't just meandered round and recorded the upright stones, but have dug, prised up and generally excavated stones that have fallen over. Well done team

I got my blaster courtesy of Sindwinder a few weeks ago and boy I'm excited!
I've slowly been putting it together and realized I know nothing about the mechanics of a gun. Trying to get this trigger to be functional might take a little longer than I thought.
Also I found a scope today at the sporting goods store up the street and I think it works pretty well. It's not a Nikko Stirling Mount Master but it is a type of ASI. With the 4X20mm specifications. It's 10 and 1/4 inches long which makes it 3/4 of an inch short, but at first glance you would never know the difference!
I'm planning on doing a few mods to it and I was wondering if anyone else might be interested in what I'm going to do?
I plan on carving a new stock out of walnut(which is what most stocks are made from), and I plan on having the "D" bracket laser cut from a piece of steel.
ANy takers on a new stock or maybe a solid "D" bracket? Let me know.
I'll have some pricing at the start of next week.
Thanks again to Simon Sindwinder for all of his detail work. I couldn't have done this without him!

Discussion in 'Pistons and NBA' started by Latinoking90, Apr 12, 2009.
Not sensitive. Just wanted clarification. Thanks for clarifying. I agree with you on this.
Fair enough, I didn't think you were being overly up tight about it. I just wanted to make sure that people understand I'm not taking shots at them. I make most of my statements with a fair amount of sarcasm and exaggeration for effect...but mostly for laughs because I'm a smart ass, not because I need to take a hammer and tongs to guys on here.
Nonsense, Low. There is a large part of obviousness to this whole situation. Oceans of Kool-Aid have beckoned over the last few years. Served up by JD's PR machine and lack of any perceptive sports writing on the Piston situation. Forums, blogs, and pod-cast now have the best alternative and interpretative insights. They do occasionally fly into the heavens at times, but organizational layers of information are locked down tighter than a Photoshop copyrighted composition. Sheed has been an obvious caricature of himself over the last few years. The obviousness of Sheed is his routine exposure (superficial) toward his status as one of influence or at the very least, the go-to guy that can prevent defeats. That routine is his exhibitions on the pre-game dance routine and his all-me focus when getting fouls. Sheed will test the market. He knows the level that will bring. He will be a bargain for any team that wants him. His asking price and acceptance might work out OK for us....providing: This teams obtains leadership. When transitions occur on a large scale, you best have a solid foundation to stabilize everything that will be absorbed, modified, and thrown off. This time around it must begin with the right coach. This time around it must focus on the big picture you see for this team. The right sponsorship, business needs, business requirements and business value toward something that can internalize flexibility and reproduction to reach goals. Only JD and the administration can provide this. JD has to open up.
The irony of this season is that we started it with a need for another low-post big body with guard being our strength; but instead of fixing anything, Joe created another problem. He traded a guard for another guard that created an influx of SG's and no PG. So now we're back to still needing a low post big and being weak at PG.
Merc's version: The pressing needs are for someone to man up on Bron & Pierce (Tay will never get this done)... we also need an active defensive force inside (that's not a complete liability on offense). Sign & Trade Sheed (6m each year for two years) & our 1st (plus protected future 1st) to Charlotte for Okafor... this is playing on the NC sentiment... it also helps spread the floor for the Cats... they can draft a project like Mullens nd get an LB type PG in the 1st round... they currently have two shot blockers in Diop & Ajincs (sp).... it also saves the cats 3M (they're losing millions this year while still in the lotto). Trade Afflalo, Jmax & Minny pick to N.O. for West & R. Butler. This saves the Hornets 8M and effectively takes them out of Luxland. Butler will be expiring. Sign Artest for just above the MLE for 4 years.... Yeah folks won't get over his past... however he has been a solid citizen for the last two years... sometimes you need someone a little nuts to intimidate opponents. Offer Dice the remainder of the available space for two years (this is close to what he would have lost when considering buyout and re-signing $'s)... extending his career. C- Okafor, Kwame, Dice PF- West, Dice, Amir SF- Artest, Tay, Butler, Sharpe SG- Rip, Tay, Stuckey PG- Stuckey, Bynum, Toronto Pick
I like that line up Merc...gotta hope that Toronto pick is a PG that can start by midseason
Joe D has a lot of work to make this team competitive in the conference. First, if LBJ stays in Cleveland, they will continue to dominate the division. Chicago may have finally found a playmaker in Rose. The Magic are just missing the leadership, they are probably a good PG away from being consistent. Also, Howard needs to take charge, not just from a scoring/reb standpoint, but from a go to guy perspective. Wizards, no defense, but drafting Rubio and having the firepower they have will make them a pain in arse during the regular season. Talent wise the Hawks, 76'ers and Miami have enough to make the playoffs. The Pistons are really a mid-pack to lower tier team.
Nice work. Be great if something can be done to bring in someone like Okafor to rebuild the front court around and I hope that is the priority.
For those interested in Bosh; Raptors plan to offer Bosh extension - NBA - Yahoo! Sports
Okafor/David West/Artest Will most certainly be an interesting season. Why resign Dice btw?
I need to improve mine and make some adjustments...
Get rid of Curry, Sheed, AI, Tay by all means possible.
Hey guys Im new here but I have been a pistons fan my whole life, and it really hurt to watch this team play. You could just see these guys were ready to roll over! anyways my suggestion, let me know if this is possible. let Sheed and AI walkSign Boozer and Artest (both free agents)find a way to add BattierKeep DiceI think those are all things JD can do if he wants, without worrying about outside help One more thing , fire CURRY!!! that guy doesn't even have communication skills! What a joke i think that line-up will begin to give the team an identity, no stars but some hard workers with skill.
Hey BRAVE...welcone to the PF. All your ideas look good to me, but I'm on medication.
MC's interview before the start of the 4th quarter was classic. "Coach, your big 3, Rip, Tay, and Sheed are 1 for 42 shooting today, who do you think can be the x-factor here in the 4th?" "Well, yeah, I believe that Rip, Tay, and Sheed can be that x-factor by hitting shots. We have been missing shots and we need to hip them in rhythm in the 4th quarter. They will all be in there playing and shooting. Thank you."
Did you edit that quote for readability or was he really that eloquent?
The only words that I actually heard for sure were "x-factor" and "shots"... which I heard about 5 times. The rest I made up to make it more dramatic.
Exiting this season I have a number of questions that need answering: 1. How do we rebuild our frontcourt? 2. Is ALL the basketball Tayshaun has played in the past 6 years (every regular season game + every playoff game of deeeep playoff runs + Olympic duties-he may not have played a lot but he practiced and conditioned heavily) with no good backup starting to take its toll? If so, will an off season of rest and rehab (from a relatively unreported back injury) as well as a real, competent backup re-establish him as the TP we knew and loved? 3. What is our backcourt of the future (our team has always been build from the back-forward)? 4. Do we have a chance at luring a superstar in 2010?
Here's what i think the answers are: 1. The frontcourt needs a 4 and a 5. The 4 should have a low post game that gives us around 20 points and the 5 should be able to body up and play good D, also the 5 should have the ability to single cover Dwight Howard. 2. No, Tayshaun must be replaced, he isn't enough to stop Lebron the monster, only Lebron the developing monster of '05 and '06. 3. Some combination of Stuckey, Bynum, Afflalo, and some drafted athletic 1/2 (Not really sure, but Stuckey an Bynum are integral to the future) 4. No, any team can have the money, but we don't have the market for a true superstar, MAYBE the organization could sell itself and convince a player to come and stay, but I wouldn't bank on it. With these answers, this is what i'd like to see us do: -Get Boozer. Preferably for a little over 10 mill, perhaps 11 mill with a long term deal. He has the low post game, he puts up the numbers, and hopefully our training staff will keep him relatively injury free. -Trade Tayshaun for a Center. It looks like Tyson Chandler will be available, he's a little over-priced, but if another Center with the ability to body up D-Howard becomes available with better value and better health we should make a deal. Consider a scenario where the Clippers win the Lottery and draft Blake Griffen. With Camby, Griffen, Randolph, and Kamen, one would assume something would have to give. -Sign Artest. With Artest on a 6-7 mill contract (just over the middle-level) we'd have a more capable cover for Lebron with under-rated skills and a chance to recreate his persona in the city where it all went wrong. -Try to trade picks to get good picks in next year's draft which will be way more talented than this one, I'd like to get a player like Cole Aldrich next year. -Keep Rip as the carryover from the last core to the new core. This requires Rip and Curry to make nice and pull it together.

Learning a language--any language--involves a process wherein you learn to rely less and less on instruction and more increasingly on the aspects of the language you've mastered. Whether you're learning French, Java, or C, at some point you'll set aside the tutorial and attempt to converse on your own. It's not necessary to know every subtle facet of French in order to speak it well, especially if there's a good dictionary available. Likewise, C programmers don't need to memorize every detail of C in order to write good programs. What they need instead is a reliable, comprehensive reference that they can keep nearby. C in a Nutshell is that reference.
This long-awaited book is a complete reference to the C programming language and C runtime library. Its purpose is to serve as a convenient, reliable companion in your day-to-day work as a C programmer. C in a Nutshell covers virtually everything you need to program in C, describing all the elements of the language and illustrating their use with numerous examples.
The book is divided into three distinct parts. The first part is a fast-paced description, reminiscent of the classic Kernighan & Ritchie text on which many C programmers cut their teeth. It focuses specifically on the C language and preprocessor directives, including extensions introduced to the ANSI standard in 1999. These topics and others are covered:
The second part of the book is a comprehensive reference to the C runtime library; it includes an overview of the contents of the standard headers and a description of each standard library function. Part III provides the necessary knowledge of the C programmer's basic tools: the compiler, the make utility, and the debugger. The tools described here are those in the GNU software collection.
C in a Nutshell is the perfect companion to K&R, and destined to be the most reached-for reference on your desk.

Our look is the result of reader comments, our own experimentation, and feedback from distribution channels. Distinctive covers complement our distinctive approach to technical topics, breathing personality and life into potentially dry subjects.The animal on the cover of C in a Nutshell is a cow, in the broad sense that it is a member of the domesticated species generally known as Western or European cattle (Bos taurus). In cattle terminology, the word "cow" refers to an adult female (or more specifically, a female who has given birth), as opposed to a heifer (young female), steer (castrated male), or bull (intact male).All domesticated cattle evolved from aurochs, ancient long-horned oxen that stood six feet at the shoulder and had roughly half the mass of a rhinoceros. The head of an aurochs (the term is both singular and plural) is currently featured on the Romanian coat of arms and the Moldovan flag, tracing back to the royal standard adopted in 1359 by Bogdan I, founder of the Romanian principality of Bogdania (later renamed Moldova). Full-body profiles of the animal survive in Paleolithic European cave paintings, and animated renderings can be found in video games; aurochs have been objects of fear and worship in a number of societies through the ages.Aurochs are believed to have originated in India some two million years ago; over time, they spread to neighboring continents and split into at least three genetically distinct groups, which were domesticated independently. Domestication of aurochs began in the southern Caucasus and northern Mesopotamia 8,000 to 10,000 years ago; European cattle descended from this group. Wild aurochs survived in dwindling numbers in the forests of eastern Europe through the Middle Ages (the last one was killed by a poacher in 1627). Attempts were made in Germany in the early twentieth century to breed aurochs back into existence (guided by a pre-Darwinian concept of atavism), using primitive varieties of cattle such as Highland Cattle; the result is a breed known as Heck Cattle.European cattle, brought to the Americas by Columbus on his second voyage, now number in the hundreds of breeds. It is a popular misconception that only the males have horns; in fact, both sexes are born with horns (except in a few breeds that are polled, or naturally hornless). Seeing horns other than on isolated bulls is unusual because of the common practice in modern cattle management of debudding calves at or shortly after birth (that is, removing the immature base, or horn bud, before an actual horn develops).Cow horns, which consist of a bony core sheathed in keratinous material, figure in the history of book manufacturing and the promulgation of the alphabet. In sixteenth- to eighteenth-century Europe and in colonial America, a common type of primer was composed of the alphabet (plus other text that varied) printed or written on one side of a piece of paper or parchment, which was then attached to a wooden board and covered with a thin, transparent sheet culled from the outer layer of a cow horn. The board was shaped like a small paddle (with a hole in the handle for attachment to a girdle) to make it easy to transport and share among students. The protective layer of horn extended the life of the paper (a scarce and expensive resource) and inspired the name for the device: a hornbook.Abby Fox was the production editor for C in a Nutshell.

Great Reference Book
By Andre Wiggins
from Undisclosed
This book is exactly what it says it is: A Desktop Quick Reference. It covers almost all parts of the C language including extensive documentation of the Standard Library. Great book for advanced C users who haven't memorized every single function or do not know every intricacy of pointers and arrays. NOTE: As stated above this is mainly a book for advanced users. This is not a tutorial although may be useful for a beginner to C to use along side a tutorial if you have programmed before.
Excellent Reference book
By Ravi
Many c books in market particularly deal with the language itself, and ignores the library functions which is very important to become a proficient programmer. But this one is not like those. This contains useful information about the language and the library. Even experienced c programmers can use as a reference. I appreciate the authors treatment of language and library functions.

yeah same, anyway i didnt see any negative reviews yet about them + they look sick for me
im closer to buy raptors than rulers/ambushes, i hope that they will fit my riding style and rest of equipment. just need some opinion from ppl here that tried them
|I haven't had any experience with the raptors. They are light also, and the same support as the ambush. I would be interested to hear if anyone has experience with them since that lacing is different than the ambush.
how about raptors then? they are not so heavy as well, checked some opinions about them and they are not bad, have you any experience with them ? or maybe some of your friends ?
or maybe some other boots?

well thats some nice tips there, thanks
im glad to hear that imperials fit to true size cause those are boots im looking for, they have only nr 13 in shop but they might fit perfect cause sometimes nr 13 fits me good, but sometimes not..
btw i need boots for freeride + freestyle, im getting volkl dice + cartels 2013, any ideas if burton rulers will be good for me? if ill find imperials with right size ill take them, but otherwise i was thinking about rulerls/ambushes since they got my size
warlord - im from europe and shipping costs to sweden are damn expensive, but i will search for smth like that in europe stores

FWIW, when it come to 'your normal size', I found burton (moto) to be the same but nike (kaiju) I needed to go a half size smaller.
The issue is, people often wear ordinary shoes/boots a bit looser than you want in a snowboard boor fit so be careful when following that advice. I guess if you are going to compare it, if possible do so to what size you would take in a properly fitting dress shoe, rather than hiking boots of sneakers as thats probably more accurate.
In fact the fit and shape of the kaiju is pretty close to the same size nike pegasus trainer. But the fit thats spot in in the trainer ends up too loose in the boot (cue my 3rd pair of boots!)
But there really isn't any substitute for placing your foot in the thing and even better riding it for a while.
Zappos. Com BEST return policy/ thread
I just ordered 10 pairs of boots. Going to try them all on, keep the one that fits the best and return the rest.
No hassle and free shipping back to them return policy. Best online retailer, hands down... And no, I don't work for them..
Hey Buddy,
I have Burton Imperials and they fit true to size. I wear an 11.5 for normal shoes and I wear those for boots as well. When you order them, they may feel tight at first. They SHOULD feel tight when you are first standing up in new boots. If you kneel down into a riding stance, then you will feel your feet slide back a little bit.
After you wear your new boots for a while they will break in, which makes them even more comfy. When I first buy a new pair of boots, I try to wear them at home at night for a little bit to break them in before I go up and use them.
So, if you are buying online, read the reviews to see if people are saying they fit true to size or not. For me, with that pair of boots, it was the same as my regular shoe size, so you should be fine.
|Slush Puppie
I hear you, I have the same issue.
The problem is, that even if you could go into a shop, it's still not always possible to get the fit right until you really know what you're looking for.
My advice would be to order the two nearest sizes to your guess from a retailer with a good return policy and try both.
The ones that feel perfect.. are probably the wrong size and will be too sloppy one you wear them a few days. You probably want half a size smaller than that.
People will tell you that getting them heat moulded is bad because they pack out too much. But really they shouldn't fit until they've been heat moulded. In many cases they just bought the wrong size.
Your toe should be touching the end of the liner until you stand up in the boot in a snowboard stance, then it should retract slightly.
The liner might feel very snug at this fit but will pack out and form to your foot so this will be temporary.
Also, take the liner completely out and put your bare food in the shell and push it all the way to the front so your toes touch, you want to make sure you have a gap or around 5-10mm between your heel and the boot.
And after all that, some boots just fit some feet better, depending on with of foot and hight of arch and you won't know until you've ridden it.
I've learned this by being on my 3rd pair of boots in 12 months.

I reinforced a Bradleyfett helmet and some Ruffkin gauntlets that I had to modify for my wife with fiberglass recently and was thinking I'd like to seal the inside with a nice lining. I love the lining inside the FPH and was wondering if anyone had any idea what that is...
In the FPH build-up thread, Fettpride refers to it as a "white epoxy coated lining". Any clue where I could get that and is it simply brushed in?

"These thank yous are just adorable. I actually bought a different design than I had for the shower invites (same "jungle" theme) because these were just a cuter card than what matched my invites. I love them, they're cheerful and neutral (great for those of us who aren't figuring out boy or girl!). Cards are a good weight and the process was nice and easy."
"Nice that matching "thank you" cards were available. Keeps the theme from the baby shower. Prices for both invitations and thank you cards were very reasonable."
"I originally ordered this design for my daughter's baby shower and then added the Thank You cards and address labels. My daughter loved the design snd says she's gotten so many compliments on her invitation and note cards. Tiny Prints was easy to maneuver online. Quality is great and delivery service very prompt. I will definitely order again!"
"I bought these so my daughter would have matching TY cards the same as the invitations. Only issue is the area to write is a little small - and my daughter has a tendency to be very verbose!! She'll just have to make it short & sweet!!"
"I ran out of my other personalized thank you notes and ended up ordering these in their place. If I would have known how great these cards were, I would have ordered them originally. The colors are so vivid and the quality of the paper is excellent. I especially like the polka dots on the back. Well done Tiny Prints!"

Give Obama and Bush a sword. Let them fight it out in the desert man to man.
The winner gets to fight the little squirt who runs Iran. Man the whole world could make money on that fight. T shirts, bookies, advertisments on T.V.
Ted Koppel did a documentary in Iran. Half the people he talked to didn't know what the heck he was talking about with all this hate stuff.
The other half didn't own T.V.s and didn't even know where America was.
O.K. I call fair fight in the desert. Or just nuke the damn place and turn it into a parking lot. Nuke Korea next. That little geek over there is starting to get on my nerves.

I use miss match paint. BEE HAPPY Jim 134 :)
ah you gotta love the big green hardware store...for mismatched paint.I got 5 liters of water-based outdoor paint for $20.00 the other day.
I am using water based paint at the moment, seems to be working ok, but I do slap a lot of it on :-DI really want to get started wax dipping as I hate painting, but the expense of getting set up is a bit of a killer :'(Paul.
Pure Linseed Oil for the woodwork - need a few coats, and gotta wait between coats to let it dry in. Water based primer and paint for the galvanized steel part of the lids, different colour for each hive. I use leftovers that I have in the shed. And I've got one unpainted super that I put together and used in a hurry, its actually doing OK, but I don't expect it to last as long as the others.

Hey all, it seems like we're getting a ton of good information on the EE-3 blaster recently...
I'm wondering if anyone has a good pic of the inner stock and how the D part fits in the stock on the inner side along with the stock greeblies on that side???
I know on the outside, the stock has the two long greeblies with the box one in the middle. Does the other side have the same setup?

Arsène Wenger says that Jack Wilshere has questioned his goalscoring record for the Club.
The 21-year-old struck the winner against Swansea on Wednesday night, but it was only his fifth goal in 80 appearances for Arsenal.
Wenger was delighted with Wilshere's performance against Michael Laudrup's side, and hopes he can become a regular on the scoresheet now.
"You can always improve in every area - he himself questions [his goalscoring record]," the manager said.
"The way he took the goal was fantastic, because he didn't think too much. Sometimes you miss the chances when you have too much time.
"He took his chance in a spontaneous way. It's good that he adds that to his game, because he gets in situations where you have to finish."

Lukas Podolski believes he has the ability to win games for Arsenal after scoring his first league goal in Sunday's 2-0 victory over Liverpool at Anfield.
The Germany international put the Gunners ahead just after the half-hour mark, slotting home after being set up by fellow summer signing Santi Cazorla.
Speaking to Arsenal.com after the final whistle, Podolski expressed his delight at opening his Premier League goal account.
"It was very important. I'm very happy to score my first goal here [Anfield] at Liverpool with their amazing fans and stadium," he said. "I'm also very happy that we won and got the three points.
"You must always work hard in matches. You must fight, you must run and you must score goals. When I'm on the pitch I can win matches. Today was good, we won and got three points."
The win at Anfield was Arsenal's first this season, coming after consecutive 0-0 draws against Sunderland and Stoke. And Podolski feels it was vital to pick up three points before the international break.
"I thought we played very well against Stoke and Sunderland, but we didn't score a goal. Today we scored goals, and had more chances to score a third. I think there are more points coming," he said.
"The first 10 to 15 minutes were not so good, but then we controlled the game with some great passing and played very well. I thought the two goals were very good and I'm very happy.
"Now we've got three points before the [international] break, and after the break we must play like today and I think then we will pick up a lot more points."

"I ordered a 12 x 12 mounted print of my son's birth announcement. I wasn't sure what to expect. The quality of everything I ever received from Tiny Prints has been awesome. This went above my expectations. Thank you for creating such a wonderful memorial piece for my son."
"The print quality is fantastic, and the design is wonderful. The wood mounted frame is sorta cheesy though. I had never purchased one before, but it was cheaper so I thought I'd give it a try. I think the Canvas printed version would have been much nicer. In hind sight I should have sprung for that version. Over all I'm very happy with the final product though. Shipping was fast and arrived just fine."
"I personalized this piece of art with facial shots of my newborn. Capturing her expressions in such a simplistic way was beautiful! The quality of the work was outstanding. I take photos with the date in the corner so I can remember events when they happen - but I was irritated I couldn't get the date out of one of the shots. I figured oh well - but they edited it out for me - and it looks so fabulous - I am so happy with the work. Delivery was fast and the packaging kept my piece of art nice and safe! I would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants something great to hang on their wall."
""I love it love it love. I bought 3 different black and white prints. I love that it comes with a mounting and you do not need to drill or do anything to the prints. The only thing that i don't like in the mounting is that it is not placed correctly making the print hard to center. I wish that it was redesigned. All the company has to do is turn the mounting so that the circle part is on top.""
"I was extremely happy with my order. It was exactly what I had hoped it would be. The ONLY thing I would change (maybe not change, but have as an option) would be to put another picture in the lower right hand corner instead of having to write something. But really really loved it."

We just published our annual report on The State Of Consumers And Technology: Benchmark 2013, US. This data-rich report is a graphical analysis of a range of topics about consumers and technology and serves as a benchmark for consumers' level of technology adoption, usage and attitudes. Our annual benchmark report is based on Forrester's Technographics® online benchmark survey that we've been fielding since 1998. The report covers a wide range of topics, such as online activities, social media activities, retail behaviors and preferences, and device usage—for 'traditional' technologies like TVs and laptops—as well as more emerging technologies like smartphones, tablets and wearables.
We analyze our findings through a generational lens, including Gen Z, Gen Y, Gen X, Younger Boomers, Older Boomers, and the Golden Generation. While most Americans are already online, we are seeing major strides in mobile Internet access. In 2013, all generations are connected—81% of the US adult population goes online. But there are still generational differences in smartphone usage: Seven of ten Gen Zers and Gen Yers use a smartphone, but only 18% of the Golden Generation do.


text: Kirilenko + Okur for RIP + Nazr + Delfino + Capfiller Utah and Detroit need to do something this Offseason. And not a fire sale. This gives decent value to both teams. Pros: Okur fills up the center and we would have a very dangerous front court with Wallace- both are good shooters. A major problem solved. Okur has proven he can wrestle with Yao and Duncan, so he can do the same with Howard, Bosh, Shaq and O'neal. We know Okur loves Detroit and Detroit fans and Dumars would like Okur back. Also Kirilenko could go back to AK47 days with the "D for Detroit" defense team. I am sure AK would play here much better than he did last season there and that would make Detroit the best defense team. And on top of that, Billups, Prince, Wallace and Okur makes good offense as well. Dumars have re-created a good player from depleted with Wallace, he can do that with AK too. AK was a franchise player till Deron Williams and Carlos Boozer created an anti-European climate there. Cons: We would be loosing Hamilton. No doubt this hurts. Thats the price to pay. We will be a bit low on the 2 position. We will look out to get a FA with the MLE- which shouldnt be very hard. SGs are easier to find than centers. There is a risk involved around AK but it appears to be well worth it. Bad contract of AK is partially compensated by Nazr's contract. Note: a small capfiller is still needed to enable this trade. What do you think?

Biologists have been conducting aerial surveys for right whales off Georgia's coast and have implemented a detailed educational program targeting commercial shipping ports and military installations such as Naval bases in Georgia and Florida.
The Nongame Program works closely with the state of Florida and the National Marine Fisheries Service to implement North Atlantic right whale recovery efforts -efforts deemed necessary to effect right whale recovery (removal from the Endangered Species list).
We also work with port authorities, harbor pilots, Navy, Coast Guard, and Corps of Engineers to protect right whales from collisions with ships. One of our biologists currently serves as Chair of the North Atlantic Right Whale Southeastern U.S. Recovery Plan Implementation Team.
How you can help: Be wise stewards of Georgia's natural environment, and enjoy the out-of-doors responsibly. If boating off Georgia's coast from December to April, follow the Guidelines for Navigating in Right Whale Waters outlined below. Report right whale sightings by calling (800) 272-8363.
Guidelines for Navigating in Right Whale Waters
Mariners operating in the coastal waters of the southeastern United States in winter should instruct all watches to look for right whales. Right whales will appear as black objects I the water and may just barely clear the surface. Look for a "V" shaped spout created when the whales breathes. During night and other periods of reduced visibility, vessel operators should use the slowest safe speed to reduce the risk of collisions with rights whales.
If you should see a right whale, slow your vessel and take measures to avoid the whale(s). Do not assume the whale will move from your path. Record the latitude and longitude, LORAN coordinates, or identify the location of the whale with regard to buoys. Note the direction of the whales travel. Notify authorities and other ships in the area immediately. In Georgia, call (800) 272-8363 (1-800-2-SAVE-ME); in Florida, call (888) 404-3922 (1-888-404-FWCC).
Ship Strike Reduction Regulation Information
A regulation established by National Marine Fisheries Service and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) requires all vessels over 65 feet to slow down to a speed of 10 knots or less while traveling in designated critical habitat areas along the U.S. Atlantic coast.
The regulation specifies that the months from November to March be considered the calving season. The warm coastal waters off the Georgia coast are the only known calving grounds for these rare aquatic giants. The whales are especially vulnerable during this time due to heavy traffic in Georgia's shipping lanes, where they tend to be found. It has been estimated that the loss of one or two female right whales a year could lead to extinction of the species within a century.
A newly developed compliance guide for the right whale ship strike reduction rule is now available online.
The guide can be found in these locations:

I´m starting the Boba proyect, and well, I´m gaterhing information about all the pieces, and how to assemble them...
Although I have many many doubts, I will ask you this at this moment...
Anyone knows what was used in the original costume for the "shoulder studs" ?? the ones that are in the collar armour piece that holds the cape ???
I read somewhere they was simply keyboard buttons, but not sure...
Anyone has any pics of it?? and how it´s assembled ... I mean, what do you use to attach the collar to the back piece, and how you place the "shoulder stud" to it ?? (i guess this studs must not be fixed... so you can take off each time you put the armor, isnt it ?)
And.. I also read that there was a connection like this between the cod and the butt pieces ??? is this true as well ??? any pics of this ?
Thank you sooo much and excuse my ignorance.
EDIT: Spelling.

The very first Vermont Farm Fund loan, an emergency loan made in the wake of Tropical Storm Irene to Aaron Locker of Kingsbury Market Garden, was paid in full in mid-September, 9 months earlier than required by the loan agreement.
When asked why he would pay back an interest-free loan before it is due, Locker said, "It is toward the end of the season and I have the cash flow that enabled me to pay the loan back early. I like the idea that the farm fund is about farmers lending to farmers. I know that by paying the loan back when I can rather than when I was required means that it will enable another farmer that needs help to get a loan more quickly. If I had the same interest-free loan from the bank, I probably wouldn't pay it back any sooner than necessary."
The Vermont Farm Fund is a revolving loan model so that the money paid back by Locker and other borrowers is loaned back out to another Vermont farmer or food producer. As a result, over $220,000 in loans have been made since the inception of the fund in August 2011, exceeding the initial funding of $160,000.
The fund is a partnership, started by Craftsbury farmer Pete Johnson, who received significant donations from individuals and organizations after his barn burned to the ground in January of 2011 and the Center for an Agricultural Economy, a non-profit that shared his vision and provided infrastructure and guidance. The Vermont Farm Fund made its first series of loans to farmers who suffered losses from Tropical Storm Irene.
Johnson explained, "I wanted to pay forward the generosity that I received by seeding a loan fund for other Vermont farmers with 'repayments' of the contributions I received in my time of need. Aaron's eagerness to pay his loan back early so that others can use the funds is just the kind of spirit I hoped for when envisioning this lending community."
Emergency Loans are offered for $10,000 and the terms are for two years with 0% interest. 3% amortized interest is charged for Innovation Loans that are also available to Vermont food producers. Recent loans include three $10,000 Innovation Loans: Stony Pond Farm in Enosburg Falls borrowed money to grow their herd of beef cattle; Under Orion Farm in Cabot took out a loan to build a high tunnel greenhouse, upgrade its farm stand and wash-house for incubating farmers; and Tangletown Farm of Glover used its loan to buy a hammermill to custom grind its own feed rations for their meat animals.

Prior to the start of the special session on Monday, prison reform activists voiced opposition to funding more prison beds instead of investing in rehabilitative methods.
"What we're doing in Arkansas is mass incarceration," said Leta Anthony of the Central Arkansas ReEntry Coalition. "There are incidents where prison is appropriate, but we're warehousing people and sending them through a revolving door."
In the midst of the critiques, which included the need to invest in transitional housing, mental health treatment and revising child custody laws, there was one that stood out.
"With the tragic situation with Darrell Dennis, and we are not aiming to belittle the tragedy of that event. But we don't want to see it used as an end-run to keep funneling people in this revolving door," Anthony said. "With Darrell Dennis, we went from 700 people backed up in county jails around the state to more than 2,700 in 60 days, which in some views manufactured a crisis of overcrowding."
Darrell Dennis was on parole when 18-year-old Forrest Abrams was murdered in May 2013. Dennis has pleaded not guilty to the crime. However, he was never transferred back to prison, despite multiple new charges and parole violations prior to the murder.
"We picked up people and sent them back to prisons," Anthony said. "It's a roller coaster."
"I would not say it's a manufactured crisis," said Shea Wilson, Public Information Officer for the Department of Correction. "There was an incident that happened and a response was made, and I think the appropriate action was taken at the time."
But Wilson did pull the numbers from the Department of Correction for backup inmates being held in county jails waiting to come into the prison system.
"If you look at those trends you can see where the numbers went up in a short amount of time very quickly," she said.
The data show the spike activists described as happening over six months, immediately following the parole system crackdown in response to Dennis' arrest.
The system was at what the department calls all time lows of 238 backup inmates in January 2013. That number stayed relatively steady until August 2013. The number nearly doubled over 700 and again within a month.
Those numbers tracked historic highs nearing 2,400 inmates as of July 1, 2014.
And it's putting pressure on county jails, including Pulaski County which has had to close to non-violent offenders, along with the state.
"If we continue to incarcerate people at the rate we're incarcerating people we're going to have to have additional beds," Wilson said. "As quickly as we're bringing people in they're filling those beds back up. So we're full, they're full."
The 604 beds funded with $6 million dollars from the special session will help, but it still leaves about 1,800 inmates currently on backup and more coming in.
"That will help but it's not an overall solution to the problem of overcrowding," Wilson said. "Right now we are already behind. Today we're close to 2,400 people backed up in county jails. Those are new commitments but also people sent back. We all know we can't continue to build prisons to sustain the population there will have to be a combination of efforts to help address the crisis."
According to the Department of Correction it is working to look at all of its options, including renovating the department's diagnostic unit to free up about 300 beds in the next few years. It also hopes to build a new 1,000 bed facility, which could cost anywhere from $85-$100 million.
"It will take a combination of efforts we are all very focused on reentry and other options," Wilson said. "But we still have to have bed space for the inmates we have."
The Central Arkansas ReEntry Coalition points to Act 570 as a tactic to alleviate the problem, which they say was working until the crackdown in 2013. It was a law intended to help with the growth of the prison population, according to Wilson.
"We've always known that the population was going to continue to grow," Wilson said. "But Act 570 was intended to help slow that growth. We were beginning to see a downward trend, and then the incident last summer happened, which has caused a backslide from that standpoint. It's a whole new game now."

Has anyone out there had an experience with TEFL courses in Germany? In particular I'd like to know about LSI Berlin.
I've heard some pretty sketchy accounts of schools in places like Prague and so now I'm leery of all TEFL schools if I can't get good information about them from a source other than their own website.
Any information is appreciated.

I'm thinking about applying for a CELTA course in Oxford, which starts at the beginning of May.
My plan afterwards is to find a TEFL job (non-residential, Mon-Fri) in the South East for the summer. If I did the CELTA course in May, would this be cutting it too fine in terms of finding a summer job from June onwards? When do most centres/organisations have their deadlines for the summer season? Obviously, I will email the individual centres too but I was just wondering whether anyone here had done a CELTA course at a similar time and managed to find summer work within the UK afterwards?
Any advice would be much appreciated. Thank-you :)

Arsène Wenger is relishing his return trip to China and a chance to be reunited with some of the most knowledgable Arsenal fans in the world.
The manager will take his squad on a tour of Asia later this month, kicking off with a friendly in Malaysia before further matches in China and Hong Kong.
Wenger is no stranger to the continent having spent two years with Japan's Nagoya Grampus before he moved to England - but even he was taken aback by the reception for Arsenal last summer.
"The first shock in China was how quickly the country has developed," reflected Wenger.
"But the second thing for me was how much people know about our club. When we are in China it was unbelievable. I had a press conference at Hangzhou and people in the room knew more about Arsenal than I did!
"Another surprise is how passionate people are about sport over there. The mystery remains for me that, in a big country with such a big passion, why do China not have a fantastic football team?"
Wenger thinks the gateway to a successful China national side lies in education.
"My advice would be more to educate players," he said. "Why? Because if you are a developed country it means you have manager material in your country.
"To lead a company or to manage a football team requires the same qualities, apart from the technical side. You have that in China, but what you do not have is the quality of the players. Why in a country of 1.5 billion people is there no Messi or no Ronaldo? That is the real problem and that is just down to education and grassroots football.
"My advice to Chinese football is more to structure the coaching system between five and 12 years old because football is a technical sport and you need to have access to technique at a very early age.
"After 12 years of age if you have no technique then you will never have it. That is very important and that goes through the schools and the football clubs."

|IC Net Impact Travels to Silicon Valley
|Ithaca College Net Impact traveled to Silicon Valley to attend the 2013 Net Impact Conference.
The three-day conference brought together 2,500 participants from around the world with one mission in mind – to spark change in themselves, in the workplace and in the world through exploration, innovation and experimentation.
This year, five Ithaca College students attended the conference. Participants included Anna Isachenko '14, Andrew Ebert '14, Rebecca Blondin '14, Alexandra Robinson '14 and Megan Goodwine '15.
Among the 379 speakers were Denise Morrison, President and CEO of Campbell Soup, Ken Cohen, VP of Exonn Mobil and Blake Mycoskie, Founder and CEO of TOMS Shoes. A total of 187 Net Impact chapters attended the conference, 41 of which were undergraduate chapters. Many of the participants were advocating for increases in Corporate Social Responsibility Policies, ethical and sustainable behaviors in the workplace as well as for companies to involve all stakeholders. The conference also featured an expo where 61% of the companies were recruiting.
For senior and Vice President of External Communications, Anna Isachenko, the conference helped her realize that more companies are shifting towards more ethical business conduct.
"Corporations are realizing that they must take responsibility for the impact they have on the environment and society," she says. "It's very inspiring to know that much progress has been made in sustainability, human rights, animal protection and social justice and that there are many powerful advocates of positive change. As a senior, I am enthusiastic to enter the socially responsible world of business."
CEO of Net Impact, Liz Maw, explained that change requires stepping up and sometimes standing out as well as the push and pull of different perspectives. It also requires you to trust yourself and your ideas. Most importantly, change starts with action. Ithaca College Net Impact embodies all of these requirements of change and will continue to shape the future of business and society through their leadership efforts.

"Colonel Mustard did it with the candlestick in the library."
One hears statements of this kind while playing the popular board game "Clue." Players of Clue must travel around an imaginary old mansion while collecting hints. Based on hints, players make educated guesses about the "where, who, and with what weapon" facts of a murder mystery.
Pursuing better treatments and cures for Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a little like playing an exceedingly complicated game of Clue. Villainous SLE has done dastardly deeds, reducing quality and quantity of life for many of its victims. Researchers who would bring SLE to justice confront a daunting array of "weapons" (infections, hormones, drugs, lifestyle choices, host immune cells run amok) that could inflict injury within the "mansion" of a patient's immune system. Like Clue players, researchers must use logic. As in Clue, they must also test proposals (called hypotheses, frequently based on observations in patients) with experiments in the laboratory. They must spend long months and years testing these proposals to track causes of SLE to their sources.
Fortunately, investigators hunting the causes of SLE in the past decade have been equipped with more powerful tools than a few dice and Clue game cards. In particular, researchers at the University of Minnesota, including Drs. Timothy Behrens and Emily Gillespie, made use of a powerful technique called gene expression profiling. The technique allows simultaneous analysis of the behavior of thousands of white blood cell genes in SLE patients. Nearly 10 years ago, these investigators were among the first to report that the majority of SLE patients show a distinctive pattern of blood gene expression (Baechler et al, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2003). They dubbed the pattern the Type 1 Interferon "signature" because numerous active genes in the SLE-associated blood profile are controlled by a powerful natural chemical called type 1 Interferon. After observing the signature, they proposed that uncontrolled type 1 Interferon might serve as a major instigator of tissue damage in SLE.
In the ensuing 10 years, Drs. Behrens and Gillespie and many other researchers have been working to establish a cause-and-effect relationship between type 1 Interferon and tissue injury in SLE. Their follow-up work has resulted in numerous insights about the cells that produce type 1 Interferon and how those cells are excited by stimuli such as infection.
We will discuss further clues about whether type 1 Interferon is indeed a "weapon of interest" in the SLE "murder mystery" in the next post.

Discussion in 'Great Skate Debate' started by Sylvia, Aug 28, 2013.
great job! I love their interviews they should stick to that, and leave the This and That stuff
Anyone knows what does he say about Stephane Lambiel at the end? I couldn't get that
I agree robinhood. Great interview. I too found the link cut in and out a bit. I missed several things Jeff said. But what I got was really good. He's so well spoken!
I really enjoy the interviews from Jenny and David. I especially love the this and that chat, I look forward to it every Sunday.
I think he said "spin" but I'm not sure.
And did he say "helmet" for Mira Leung?
Great interview, as always. I love TSL format. Too bad the sound was of such poor quality for Jeff.
I haven't watched any of his performances lately so I loved seeing those wonderful highlights of his programs. What a great skater.
Arent Stephane and Jeffy good friends>?
I wonder how TSL will evolve in the future now that their attempt to obtain a "media," or "press," credential from USFS has been summarily denied recently.
Aunt Joyce went too far in that blog, Dave went too far in another skating blog and now USFS recognized that the "This and That" and interview segments of their program do not constitute journalism or sporting news. Therefore, as they are not yet journalists, and I doubt Dave Leese ever will be, they were not afforded a credential by the skating body of which they are members.
Do you think this response from USFS will affect their functioning, and will skaters, coaches, etc. now avoid TSL?
It would be nice if this thread could be focused on the Jeff Buttle interview - maybe a separate thread could be started about that topic?
I doubt skaters will avoid TSL but I suspected from their first show that Dave's association with it and the things he wrote on aunt Joyce (some he deleted) might harm the show's credibility. I understand that Jenny is loyal to her friend but I actually think the show would be improved with just one interviewer format. I don't think their chemistry is particularly interesting that the show going solo would miss anything. It won't happen but just my two cents.
This was one of the better interviews from TSL. Loved the highlights too!
2007 worlds was the most important of his career and the whole 2006-2010 and they completely skip over it!! There he was headed for a medal and was really the only skater in that competition harmed by the fall on UR quad and get no points whatsoever!! Then he never even tried one again! And that became the whole template for success in skating the next two years! 3/5 layout never try a quad at all. Did he get from 2007 and being the only one hurt by the fall on UR quad get no points never to even try one again? He was headed towards a medal possibly a win in 2007!! Then he got nothing! So did "buttle rule" of strategically falling on quads to get a lot of points ended by the COP revisions that left him with no points in the FS on his fall < quad?
Now quads are back because they have value again. It's not a different set of skaters LOL. All the main contenders except Hanyu were in Vancouver and doing no quads in the SP and maybe on in the LP. Skaters learned from 2008-2010 you need to have a good program? But quads also were way too risky to even do? As the Buttle performance in 2007 showed and how he won in 2009! And then Lysacek never did a quad in international competition again. One try in 2010 US nationals FAll on UR and no points?
I think the most important was completely left out because he stopped even trying and lots of other stopped even trying quads.
I seriously <3 Jeff, so this is a real treat; he's too adorable! Many thanks to Jenny and Dave for the interview!
This could have been worded better. It sounds like he pokes them with a branding iron or bites them like Dracula
Really enjoyed the interview!
Most north american skaters usually are very professional, Michelle Kwan, Kurt Browning, Buttle, they are quite friendly to almost all the people, fans, colleagues, unless they both confirm that they are good friends, you can't tell if they are good friends.
In a tour, most people are very professional and friendly to everybody, regardless of being north american, asian or european...I suppose
So obviously such a warm and wonderful person. A shame the video on his end was not the highest quality.
I really wanted to listen to this more, but had to stop after a few minutes because of the quality. Frustrating.

We already knew Madonna hated Hydrangeas which is strange because they are a pretty cool flower. Apparently she also has no respect for black people or is just a big fan of the N word because she used it to describe her lily white son in an Instagram photo yesterday. Who knew that Paula Deen and Madonna shared a love for something other than really bad blonde dye jobs. They both love the N word. Instead of an apology for using the N word, Madonna changed the Instagram caption and told people who were hating on her for using it that they could get off her d**k (above). I always knew she had one and that the whole Sex book was a big photoshop tribute.
Who doesn't say they are sorry even if they are not sorry? The fact she insulted the people who called her out shows that not only isn't she sorry for saying it but probably says it a lot. She probably thinks she is safe from criticism because she has sex with black people and adopted black kids. That is like saying you have friends of a certain color. I think if you use the N word like that you are a racist. You think that you can use it because you think you are better than that person. If you didn't think you were better you would respect the person or group of people and not say it. Does she call her youngest kids the N word or just the white ones?

Note from Bill Goodman: In this final installment of our special One to One series with Kentucky's federal delegation, my colleague Renee Shaw provides the highlights of tonight's One to One interview with Rep. Andy Barr which airs on KET tonight at 6:30 ET.
A proponent for spending restraints and national debt reduction, Kentucky's 6th District Rep. Andy Barr pledged support in January for a "No Budget No Pay" proposal that would require the House and Senate members to pass a budget as a condition of receiving their salaries.
During a spring hearing of the Financial Services Committee, he relayed complaints from community banks that Washington regulations are too burdensome, complex, and counterproductive.
Also in mid-April, the Lexington Republican reserved an hour of time on the floor of the U.S. House to lead what is known as a Special Order on the "Importance of America's Coal Industry." He and 10 others of the same and different political stripes bragged on coal's ability to produce affordable energy and create jobs. Barr co-sponsors the "Coal Jobs Protection Act" introduced earlier this month. He says at least 36 mining permits in Kentucky are being held up by the federal Environmental Protection Agency. The measure would ensure timely action on permit applications, and a companion version is being championed in the Senate by Republican leader Mitch McConnell.
And, just last week, Barr introduced the "Live by the Laws You Write Act" in the U.S. House of Representatives. According to a press release from May 16th, the two-page legislation aims to close Obamacare's congressional loophole and ensure that Congress and its staff are not exempt from the laws that it writes. Barr was quoted in the release as saying, "It is wrong for the people who wrote Obamacare to have exempted themselves, so today we are fixing that to ensure that there is no special treatment for the people who wrote this legislation."
In the last installment of congressional interviews from Washington D.C. with host Bill Goodman, Barr discusses his perception that "Washington policies are creating economic uncertainty."
The 39-year-old attorney talks with Goodman tonight at 6:30 ET about transitioning to Beltway politics. In 2004, Barr worked in the Republican gubernatorial administration of Governor Ernie Fletcher and at one time served as Fletcher's deputy general counsel.
At the interview start, Barr tells Goodman why constituent accessibility is a top priority and discusses the ways he's trying to engage citizens in the process of lawmaking.
Watch the full interview for more of Barr's thoughts on coal, health care reform, and immigration tonight at 6:30 ET on KET.

Arsène Wenger insists his current squad is among the most serious and focused of his 16-year reign at Arsenal.
The Gunners have been heavily criticised after they were knocked out of the Capital One Cup by League Two Bradford on Tuesday night.
Wenger says his players are "hurt" by their setback at the Coral Windows Stadium, but believes they have the quality to bounce back.
"I've had groups who had fantastic results [but] were less serious than these players, believe me," the manager said. "Players who were less focused than this team. Of course these players are hurting.
"You think they don't care and they go home and think they had a fantastic game? They do care.
"We prepare for games seriously. It was a cup game on an English December night in Bradford. You have to give Bradford credit.
"Unfortunately we paid the price - they knocked Wigan out as well. That shows they have something and that they are difficult to beat.
"We put ourselves in a more difficult situation when we were 1-0 down. We got off the hook with 1-1 and we should have made the difference with 30 minutes [of extra time] to play."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.
