Ok Red I will do what you said. I am not driving my truck the next couple of days but will be getting it out Wednesday evening cause I have to drop it off cause I am getting a new set of rear end gears put it. My other ones has seen better days. I will pick up some 12 gauge wire and hook it up.
Thanks Eric
one step one test at a time...
hook up the ground batt to the shell first and drive it...
leave the module alone for now...
re: second/third set of eyes...
it is just too easy for anyone to not see something immediately obvious to someone else causing a fault or could be made better is why I recommended it...
you described the harness plug in connect as "flimsy",,,can be a simple as just improve/better secure that to cure the miss...
that kind of judgement call we can't make over the net and so so darn often it is a simple to fix problem source!!!
(that doesn't need 20 tests to sort out the source)

|Actually I have owned a couple of Sun 1115's, the earlier models that were real time patterns rather than electronic sample rate machines, that accompanied with a wide band setup is all thats needed. As far as the dyno goes I worked on two different ones, both in ground Claytons also from a time gone by The later had flywheels to simulate road load and the first was just a load and go machine. Neither were all wheel drive as most of todays but most muscle cars don't have front wheel drive. I'm sure they were both donated to some school and replaced with a detail station LOL
that's the type info we need to know up front...
you have tried 3 different dist on this motor and the mis-fire remained the same....
(that's a strong indicator that the fault source is external,,not in the dist at all)
doesn't have to be #12 wire,,,I suggested it because it is easy to work with for good crimp terminals connects...
(got some scrap #14 or #16 laying around and some red terminals go ahead and use it)
it's the quality of the physical connect points that counts and most wires available anymore are less strands per size
Ok on the ground wire I do believe I understand now. So how do I run an extra ground wire from underneath the control module to my battery? Do I take a spade eye connector and take one of the screws out then put the eyelet underneath the screw and put it all back together then? Sorry if I sound stupid here but trying to visualize here how to hook it up inside my cap on the control module.
What kind of scope and dyno (distributor "dyno"?) are you looking for- one you have 'misplaced' (as in, have it but don't know where it is) or "looking" as in, to buy?
Ok guys I will do the ground wire test to start off with. I will have to pick up some 12 gauge wire. Yes I did state my Uncle is coming up from Florida and my Dad mentioned he has some testing equipment that has a lot of features to test a lot of different thing's with various types of ignitions. As far as the distributor goes I used one in my other truck from skip white from ebay and that thing runs like a charm and just as good as any auto part rebuild HEI but I guess results will vary. I have used three different HEI's in this truck to rule some other issues out I had with a previous carb issue last fall and they all worked no better then the one I have now. One was a autopart gm reman one and the other was a proform which I sold.
Looking them over I don't see any difference in them or a auto part store rebuild. One from GM might be better or not I don't know with the way they make things these days. Will try that and I don't have the option to bring my truck to anyone to test these things. I need to learn this stuff and be able to trouble shoot this stuff with learning and getting help from you guys or manuals. Maybe one day I can be as good as you guys
|Bill Adkins
|My wife is gonna be ssooooo pissed, now you got me looking for an old scope and a damned dyno
just my $.02:
alligator clip connect to the dist body is too "iffy" for what we are trying to prove...
(rock solid over kill ground supply negative circuit wiring to cure the miss)
unless you can find a spot where more than just the tip of the tooth only is contacting the dist metal surface...
and the clip does have a very strong spring to really grab and hold secure when actually driving over bumps in the road...
find a machine screw on the body and use a crimp on "U" or loop terminal... for the connect to the body...
don't connect to that middle wire....
just to the dist shell
Eric, did you mention someone was going to stop by w/some test equipment, or was that another thread I'm thinking of?
In any event, there's nothing here that you can't do yourself. It will take patience (that you have more of than your helpers, it seems! lol), perseverance and maybe a couple bucks- but this is not beyond your abilities.
Although pulling out the "big guns"- i.e. seeking professional help- would be a short cut to a possible solution, it wouldn't be the same as a "hands on" approach of doing it yourself, w/some suggestions from the forum.
Whatever you decide, I'll respect your decision. If there's anything that I can help with, I'll try to do so- as I'm sure all concerned will, as well.
The 4-pin module grounds through the screws into the distributor body. Barring any weird conditions where the screw wouldn't contact the steel sleeve that the screw holes of the module contain, or that the threads of the screws would somehow be insulated from the threads in the distributor body (both unlikely), the grounding of the distributor body to the "-" terminal of the battery w/a jumper cable will be sufficient to eliminate that as the cause of the intermittent miss.
If the module and/or coil is suspect, just change them- there's no good reason to toss the entire distributor. I'd suggest using a Delco module and an OEM coil for testing purposes. But I seriously doubt they will be the cause.
I would also suggest installing a fresh set of plugs before you do any in-depth chasing of the miss.
with absolutely no distributor facts available,,,I'm not comfortable enough to tell you to do anything...
there are roughly 20 versions of the HEI electrical/mechanical design sold today...
(my $.02,,some of those are truly "junk" electronics for operating amps and robust design based on my experience)
it had a Proform cap and coil so it might well be just a $57 retail Proform "throw away" dist?????
(not even worth the time to test,,,if it hick ups throw away the whole unit and go get another one or MUCH smarter yet get a better built electronics dist)....
most of the parts chains do carry those proform units,,,carefully visually compare yours to one...
I will having nothing to do with the proform unit because they don't publish any spec's at all (not even a wiring diagram)....
( based on the way low $25 approx replacement ign module cost it is likely only 2-3 amps operating which is 36watts versus stock hei 5amps 60watts for plenty of coil input reserve)
many HR members have reported good results using them on "stock" or very mild motors...
(we live in a throw away society so sell a elcheapo throw away dist is smart marketing)
what you want is a wire direct to the module itself ground pick up point...
illustrations only:
some have a capacitor/condensor screw and do pick up ground from the dist body...
some wire off the HEI lug to a common wire combo module/coil ground...
some have a independent module wire ground ....
anywho,,,more better "0" resistance copper grounds to the batt neg can only help any/all electrical devices on a car and your ign module may/might possibly ground to the dist body....
go ahead and make the jumper (batt neg to the dist metal body) a permanent install,,,if nothing else it will help disappate errant and "weird" electric forms under the cap if they are present (like occasional AC spikes coming from the alt causing the misfire?)...
if it does cure the miss go get the alt tested,,diode may be failing or just a bad diode...
I do agree with Bill,,,the smartest move at this point is to get some experienced eyes to atleast look over the dist to tell you what you do have (to post here)....
|Ok I understand about the ground strap now. I can use an alligator clip and clip it on part of the body and then too my battery and see what that does so would that work good then? Bill the miss happens at warm up the most but also at cruising at any rpm and it happens in no particular condition. The miss at cruising is hardly noticeable and engine still runs smooth. It does not happen constant it just comes and goes here and there but still happens everyday. Most noticeable at idle. I hope that makes sense. I don't have any place around to be able to measure the air fuel ratio of my carb or anything.
|Bill Adkins
|So hows things, been in the mountains for a couple of days and missed so much here. from all I have read I can only say that 30 minutes on a dyno with a sun 1115 scope and it would be Miller time. The next best thing..... although it's not real close would be a wide band o2 sensor. The misfire, is it at a light throttle cruise or just when you pick it up after having had a sort of lax period almost like a coast. It's really hard to know exactly when the problem occurs from here, the conditions in the engine change so dramatically with a slight change in load. You would likely save yourself a lot of grief and time having a performance tech actually drive it so he or she can identify exactly what's going on. You might need to dance around a air bleed or a power valve, if you had a scope you could easily and quickly eliminate any secondary ignition problems and a good scope will also tip you as to a lean condition in the time line. This is however a good detective story.

The Freedom From Religion Foundation is protesting an unconstitutional resolution naming 2012 the "Year of the Bible," unanimously passed (193-0) in the Pennsylvania General Assembly this week.
House Resolution 535 arrogantly exhorts citizens to "study and apply the teachings of the holy scriptures." What a discredit to the legacy of William Penn, one of the earliest champions of freedom of conscience, FFRF charges in a joint letter to Speaker of the House Samuel Smith and House Minority Leader Frank Dermody.
The Pennsylvania Assembly is strictly prohibited by the Pennsylvania Constitution from controlling or interfering with "the limits of conscience," or showing any preference "by law to any religious establishments or modes of worship." "It is no more permissible for members of the Assembly to 'bless' the bible than it would be for them to endorse the koran," wrote FFRF Co-Presidents Dan Barker and Annie Laurie Gaylor.
Pennsylvania legislators have no right to endorse the bible as "the word of God," much less to direct state and national citizens to study and apply it. Most perniciously, the resolution implies our nation was founded on the bible, when in fact our nation is founded on an entirely secular and godless constitution, whose only references to religion are exclusionary, such as there shall be no religious test for public office.
"Our constitution grants sovereignty not to a deity or a 'holy book,' but to 'We, the People.' There is no reference to God, the bible, the Ten Commandments or Jesus in the U.S. Constitution, just as there are no references to 'consent of the governed,' 'civil liberties' or 'democracy' in the bible. Those who have truly studied the bible realize that it is a moral quagmire, a behavioral grab bag, which has been used to justify automatic rule, tyranny, slavery, the degradation of women and gays, child abuse, war, atrocity and mayhem," noted FFRF.
FFRF's letter quoted a historic 19th century judge, warning:
"There is no such source and cause of strife, quarrel, fights, malignant opposition, persecution, and war, and all evil in the state, as religion. Let it once enter our civil affairs, our government would soon be destroyed."
FFRF's message to electioneering politicians in Pennsylvania and everywhere: "The economy is in shambles, many Americans are jobless and homeless. Get off your knees and get to work!
Send a strongly worded note of protest to the Speaker of the House and the House Minority Leader. If you live in Pennsylvania, you may also wish to phone or email your State Representative (see contact details below) and send a heads up to your State Senator about why to vote "no" if it comes up for vote in the Senate. They need to know that this bill is unconstitutional and offensive to those of us who know 2012 should be 'the Year of the Constitution.'

If Past Is Prologue…
posted at 1:34 am on February 21, 2013 by Duane Patterson
A couple of members of the House Budget committee took over the airwaves on Hugh Hewitt's show Wednesday. John Campbell was hosting, Chairman Paul Ryan was the guest. The entire transcript is available here, but in short, this is exactly what the Republicans need to say about the need to rein in spending, and say it every time they can.
Republicans cannot do anything about the President's endless parade of photo ops, grandstanding behind first responders on the sequester, or in front of a bunch of kids on guns. And they cannot do anything about the Chris Matthews of the world comparing them to Hamas. But they do have math, facts, logic and clarity on their side, if only they will use their entire Congressional caucus more effectively in the messaging department. This was a good start.
Well, I think we need to have this kind of debate. And like we've done in the past, and I feel like we're on a broken record here, but we need to show the country how we would do things differently if we don't like the direction that we're headed. We don't like the idea of consigning our children and grandchildren to a mountain of debt that they can't survive, where they have a lower standard of living. We don't like the idea of courting a recession, which is what a debt crisis would bring us.
We want opportunity. We want people to get on with their lives by having opportunities, by having economic growth. We want to have a strong national defense. We want to have entitlement programs that people retire on and keep the benefits that were promised to them, like Medicare and Social Security. We want a health care system that's vibrant, that works for patients who are in charge of their health care. We want to have the American dream in reach for every single person in this country.
This is what you…you need a budget in order to do that. You need to show the country your policies and how they all add up in order to achieve these goals that we have. We can't simply stand up and give lofty speeches. We have to show specifically what reforms and policies that we're calling for to get these goals accomplished.
And unfortunately, far more people are falling behind. We have the highest poverty rates in a generation. We have people who are about to enter retirement who may very well have the promises that were made to them reneged upon, just like what's happening in Europe. We have young people who can't get good jobs coming out of college. We've got opportunities denied left and right in this country in this stagnant economy.
And the primary reason why is because of our government, and because of its lack of foresight in tackling the problems we have before us. And we want to have this debate. We want to show the country that if you get ahead of these problems and tackle them before they tackle us, we'll all be better off, that if you reform programs like Medicare, you can guarantee its promise for the people who are in and near retirement, and there for my generation and my kids' generation when we retire. It's smarter to do it that way, because in a debt crisis, everyone gets hurt, especially people who need government the most. They're the ones who get hurt the first and the worst in a debt crisis, which is where we are headed if we stick with the status quo.
And unfortunately, because of the President's lack of leadership, because of the political games he's playing, because of the Senate's refusal to even try to govern by budgeting, that's where we're headed. We need to go in a different direction, and we're not going to stop showing the country a better way to go. That's what budgeting is all about. That's what we're going to do in March, and that's the kind of debate this country so richly deserves.

About Me Developer
Comments about oreilly Parallel Programming with Python:
The grammar is really poor and reads like it was never properly reviewed. The content is lacking, few code examples, and very little explanation of the important concepts of parallel programming in Python. If you are trying to learn something new about parallel programming that can not be obtained by the somewhat obtuse docs, this book is not for you.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Getting Parallel with Python
By Bill
from Baltimre, MD
About Me Developer, Sys Admin
Parallel Programming with PythonParallel Programming is a hot subject and for good reason, we are only getting faster. I've used C++ multi-thread architecture which is quite similar to python. Locking and unlocking threads can get confusing but you always have to keep things organized and you won't get in too much trouble. I don't mind some theory on what I'm getting ready to learn and eventually apply, this is expected for an entry level book. Which I felt others didn't seem to keep in mind, not everything will be covered, this leaves room for more advanced books to be written. Shared state to messaging state were covered just enough for my taste but I could see how others would want a more elaborate explanation. Deadlock, Starvation, and Race Conditions were covered which are the most common issues faced when parallel programming. I remember when just the term alone would cause panic in the room, but now it's nothing more then logically arranging your application to use workers to achieve a desired result, with concurrent operations which impact the overall speed of the application.This is clearly shown when you get into the concurrent.futures section of the book, which I enjoyed very much. You have complete control over what occurs, until the system out grows your brain is now a full fledged API with a user manual! :) I really enjoyed Chapter 8, all of the re-factoring code to utilize a library was pretty cool to walk over and participate in. I'm still not an expert in Python but this book really gives you a reason to learn parallel programming in order to future-proof yourself and your code base.Publisher Link: http://goo.gl/kHPLKZ
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Desired to include wider topic coverage
By Arthurz
from Toronto, ON
Parallel Programming is an increasingly hot topic in today's IT circles. For those who ponder why I can tell in short it is because of the CPU clock speeds stagnation. We, software engineers, are dealing with ever increasing volumes of data and are asked to deliver even faster, more robust applications and websites. This is tough. Parallel Programming is the answer. I hope I whet your appetite for exploring the Parallel Programming so now I can switch the focus to the book.It is not terribly long. Not costly either. In fact if you care I managed to read it whole in 3 hours plus (stats are from my ebook reader app) and managed to run a few examples that worked on my laptop with Windows 7. I am planning on running more examples later on a POSIX machine. Thing with the examples is they are classic ones: the Fibonacci series which is boring to me and far from what anybody would be dealing with at work and web crawling which is better done using say Nutch. The same code examples go through the entire book, just different techniques applied. What I wish Jan had done is explaining at least what technique helps in what case in real life. My other pet peeves are that there was no mention on how to leverage the GPU, how to eliminate the For Loops – this is actually a must in my opinion, and there was no coverage on how to debug parralel processes. Let me stop at debugging a tad longer: since Python allows mutability it becomes critical to exterminate nasty mutation bugs!In terms of closing, I have an advice to the author: it is hard to write a technical book, but I wish it could be longer and covered more ground
Merchant response: Greetings,Thank you for reviewing Parallel Programming with Python. I am sorry that you feel it didn't cover enough of the topics you feel it should, but I'm glad you found the book to be easy to understand.

Panel discussion Oct. 9 at Wayne Law to focus on diversity in criminal prosecution
DETROIT — A panel discussion about cultural diversity in prosecution and its importance to the American criminal justice system will take place Wednesday, Oct. 9, at Wayne State University Law School.
Panelists will be attorney James L. Feinberg of James L. Feinberg & Associates; Judge Patricia Fresard of Wayne County Circuit Court; Wayne Law Professor Peter Henning; and Barbara L. McQuade, U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Michigan.
The discussion is sponsored by the Hispanic Bar Association of Michigan and Wayne Law's Career Services Office.
The free event will be from 12:15 to 1:15 p.m. in the Spencer M. Partrich Auditorium at the law school, 471 W. Palmer St. The discussion is open to the public, and lunch will be provided. RSVP via email to Krystal Gardner at firstname.lastname@example.com. Parking is available for $6.50 in the structure across Palmer Street from Wayne Law.
Feinberg, who concentrates his practice on criminal defense, is the founder of the Hispanic Bar Association of Michigan and one of the founding members of the Criminal Defense Attorneys of Michigan. He is a 1968 graduate of Wayne Law.
Fresard is the first Hispanic female judge on the Wayne County Circuit Court, where she has served since 1999. She began her legal career as an assistant prosecuting attorney for Macomb County and served there as chief of sex crimes.
Henning teaches White Collar Crime, Criminal Procedure and other courses. Before he joined the Wayne Law faculty in 1994, he had worked as a senior attorney in the Division of Enforcement at the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission and in the Criminal Division of the U.S. Department of Justice.
McQuade, the first woman to serve in her post, was appointed by President Barack Obama in January 2010. She was an assistant U.S. attorney in Detroit for 12 years and served as deputy chief of the National Security Unit, where she prosecuted cases involving terrorism financing, foreign agents, export violations and threats. During her career as a federal prosecutor, she also prosecuted cases involving violent crime, fraud and racketeering.

'Former Senators D Grant Ledyard, who lives in the Buffalo area, dropped by the dressing room to visit yesterday morning. He was not re-signed by the Lightning. Rochester coach Randy Cunneyworth, the best captain in Senators history, is also in town because the AHL's Amerks haven't opened their camp yet.'

Support HR-676. Call your reps today
Americans regularly travel to Singapore (and other Countries w/ more rational health care policies) for procedures deemed 'too expensive' here. That 'should' be unacceptable yet accept we do. Also due to the 'for profit' system we have we have the lowest return for the amount spent and still rank on the 'bottom' when compared to other 'civilised' countries.
So called Market 'solutions' is what brought us to this place kathyp.
I've been hearing people (mostly politicians) proclaim the benefits of VA health Care and its own successful solutions to high medical costs for years. I see no reason why their methods couldn't be adopted in mass, other than the lost profits (entitlements?) of a few profiteers/conmen who provide nothing, least of all actual health care.
People don't just go to other countries because they can pay cash kathyp. They go because their 'insurance company' very likely denied all or part of a claim and in order to have the particular procedure done in the States requires a mortgage AND all first born children, just as a down payment . OK, I'm making that last part up, but unless your living in a cave you must know what I mean.
I've also experienced health care in other countries, some w/ excellent care and access, some w/ none to little (thank goodness I had that government job, heh?). My experiences were not quite like the descriptions offered by kathyp, but she offered no actual locations so am not certain what it all meant really, accept to refute the fact that better and cheaper systems 'really' do exist, despite her assertion.
In the States I've mostly relied on VA since retiring and to be honest, I'd rather have the care available in Singapore.
Oh and BTW, in no way are high medical costs associated with the number of people in a Country (that's a myth or lie perpetuated by the industry, you choose) the argument simply makes no sense and the VA is a 'perfect' example. With "more" people included we should be able to strike a 'better' deal for 'all' not just the most profitable deal for the 'non-providing' insurer.
Hey, that's my line :-DSounds like a cop out, rather than an engaged discussion, something you once accused me of ;) some time ago. Not like you to just give up either. We both call em as we see em. Certainly nothing wrong w/ that....but....Is this 'an acceptance' of some of my thoughts or just telling me you've had enough of my attempts to persuade a different viewpoint.............until next time? Persuasion was never part of the plan, just loving the dialogue as a retired person is all, and I simply can't resist investigating any assertions made by most anyone , ; likely a glaring personality flaw in some circles but its served me well so far 8-)BTW; IMO, there's no such thing as a 'free market' in America as 'most' of us are firmly excluded from any actual participation or access to any such animal. The closest 'we' (average folks) have is the barter system or perhaps some other forms of illicit transactions, but even those examples aren't always so free (they're starting to regulate yard and garage Sales around here :roll:). Our choices as consumers become more limited all the time making our purchases as much 'chosen for us' as not IMO, just mine now, only mine.All other forms are an illusion designed to make us think we have some power, whether economically or socially, where we really have none at all, unless we organise (and stop with all the 'manufactured' divisiveness that only serves the masters) that is :)thomas
4 more years and we won't have any debt. There'll be new money with new denominations, to go with the national dress uniforms and national ID cards. Hitler will be so proud, he'll be saluting from the grave.

One of the best things about living in Washington, D.C., is the city's assemblage of cultures from all over the world. Last week I took advantage of this situation by heading over to the Royal Danish Embassy, which held an open house at its 1960 Ambassador's Residence, designed by Vilhelm Lauritzen in collaboration with Walter Gropius.
The occasion was gather.HYGGE, an exhibition designed by graduate students from the Corcoran College of Art + Design for the Embassy's annual Creative Christmas program. It's rare for the house to be open to the public, so I jumped on the opportunity to see its architecture and its Danish Modern furniture.
I wasn't disappointed. Lauritzen (whose firm is still active in Denmark) and Gropius created a quietly welcoming Modernist haven on a sylvan Northwest Washington site. "The ambassador at the time, Henrik Kaufmann, wanted to build a home that reflects Danish values," the Embassy's Pernille Florin Elbech told me.
The interior materials—lots of wood and glass, as well as white marble from Danish-owned Greenland—provide a perfect backdrop for a collection of iconic furniture pieces, including a Finn Juhl dining table and chairs, a leather sofa and chairs by Børge Morgenson, a Poul Henningsen bench, and a grouping of Arne Jacobsen Egg chairs. Even the holiday decorations involved a Danish design icon: silver ornaments by Georg Jensen sparkled on the boughs of the residence's Christmas tree.

The Museum Victoria and Parks Victoria crew at the Grampians National Park in western Victoria have discovered some cool critters after the first six days of the intensive Grampians Bioscan survey. Why elaborate when I can just show you what I mean.

We've come face-to-face with the cute and furry, like the Yellow-footed Antechinus, Antechinus flavipes. These small mammals look a little like mice but they are not closely related. They are carnivorous, eating insects and small lizards. Females rear young in pouches until the young outgrow the pouch and they climb onto her back for a while. Males fight during breeding season, neglect to eat, and die within twelve days after mating.

There have been five frog encounters so far, including the endangered Growling Grass Frog, Litoria raniformis. The conservation genetics of this species is currently being studied by museum PhD student Claire Keely.

Warm weather has given our researchers an opportunity to sample DNA from the local reptile populations. Here, a watchful Colin catches a Tiger Snake, Notechis scutatus, for a genetics project.

A friendly Stumpy-tail, Tiliqua rugosa, faced off with museum herpetologist Jo Sumner. These lizards give birth to live young, which is uncommon in reptiles since most lay eggs. Mating pairs usually follow one another around and maintain a life-long bond.

We saw Australia's smallest freshwater crayfish (Western Swamp Crayfish, Gramastacus insolitus, about 3 cm long) and one of the largest (Glenelg River Spiny Crayfish, Euastacus bispinosus, about 15cm long). Both species are listed as endangered on DSE's Advisory List of Threatened Invertebrate Fauna in Victoria.

And species that dramatically transform from larval stages into adults, for example the Dobsonfly, Archichauliodes guttiferus. The aquatic larval stage lives in the rocks on river beds while the adult flies around the plants along the river bank.

And saving my favourite until last – the "Jabba-the-hut" spider, more officially known as a Badge Huntsman, Neosparassus diana.

We've also recorded Wedge-tailed Eagles and Powerful Owls. Stand by for a report on week two!
The survey is being conducted with help from Parks Victoria's rangers and aims to document wildlife in the Grampians area. It involves over 60 museum staff and associates, including the Melbourne Herbarium and Field Naturalists Club of Victoria, and concludes at the end of November 2012.

Arsène Wenger says the time is not quite right for Theo Walcott to play through the middle for Arsenal.
Walcott is keen to try his luck in a central role but, for now, he has been stationed on the right of Wenger's front three. The Frenchman has plenty of options up front but he says the England international will get his opportunity eventually.
"I have as well other players who can play in this role - Chamakh, Park, Van Persie, Gervinho," said Wenger.
"Walcott at the moment is for me suited to play on the flank. But he will later certainly move inside."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc. Permission to use quotations from this article is granted subject to appropriate credit being given to www.arsenal.com as the source

Discussion in 'Pistons and NBA' started by Winless Wonders, Feb 10, 2012.
Against teams over .500, Lin ranks as follows on a per minute basis: Scoring: 16th (behind Eric Williams, Durant, James, Bargnani, Melo, Bryant, Love, Rose, Westbrook, Wade, Nowitzki, Ginobili, Aldridge, Ellis, and Irving). Only 2 PG's ahead of him. Assists: 6th (behind Nash, Rubio, Calderon, Williams, and Chris Paul). Notice none of these guys score more than him. Steals: 4th Offensive rebounds: 5th among point guards So, from a very simplistic measure of scoring, assisting, and steals against good teams only, Lin has played at a Superstar level so far this year. I can see why people might start talking. On the pro side: - Has turned around the Knicks team when their all-stars were out - Is scoring at a furious pace - Is assisting with the top 5 PGs in the league - Is stealing the ball as well as anyone On the con side: - Favors his right hand - Turns the ball over at a higher rate than any other PG in the league (but only 1.5 times per 48 minutes more than Steve Nash and Deron Williams) - Has only been playing at a high level for a month/ scouting reports may catch up to him - Average FG% among PGs (about 16th in the league) Time will be the judge. He needs to find a way to get the most out of Melo to take the defensive pressure off of himself.
I understand the stats man. The way i see it is that there are two main factors 1 - the offense which he finds himself in is very pg orientated. Could he have a similar impact in another team? 2 - is his production in decline? what are the expectations now?
When I think of basketball, I think of Forbes.
Certainly these aren't the type of sports articles or references that I would be gazing at when I try to increase my basketball knowledge, but you did provide some links.........so thanks........... I'm just somebody who hates when people just run around sprinkling the word superstar on anybody. We certainly should use the word "star" to describe the rise of Jeremy Lin......but I hold the word superstar in reverence..........for people like Gordie Howe, Isiah Thomas, Barry Sanders, and Justin Verlander. Even the Great NEMO...........whose name I use here, wasn't a superstar, although I admire him greatly.
I'm thinking....and someone please correct me if I'm wrong...that most of the stats and data gathered for this forum come directly from the pages of Forbes magazine.
You're forgetting it's all Linsanity. Stop going linsane. A month from now you'll be debating whether 5 or more turnovers qualifies for blue chip player.
What's with the debate? Forbes settled that he's a superstar so you guys can stop posting stats, thoughts about the D'Antoni system and other nonsense. Do you guys really think Forbes would try to fool CEOs? That's right - CEOs.
I was showing you a split that I assumed you hadn't previously seen (i.e. performance against teams > .500) to address a concern that he doesn't perform well against good teams. As far as them being a PG oriented offense, they have Amare Staudemire and Carmelo Anthony. That seems to me that they are really a SF and PF dominated offense by their makeup. He changed them to be a PG oriented offense and it has worked out better for them since he did that.
Offense style was always PG dominated, see Steve Nash & D'Antoni. I hope you guys realise that I was being sarcastic
So are they.
On the year so far, here is where the Knicks do their scoring (with associated PER) Pos: pts, PER PG: 19.0, 9.8 SG: 15.4, 11.8 SF: 22.8, 14.5 PF: 19.9, 13.9 C: 18.3, 20.4 Melo and Amare lead the scoring at those positions while Chadler dominates the production and efficiency. In terms of assists, the Knicks get about 33% of their assists from the PG position, which is exactly the same as the Pistons. I agree that they are PG dominated now though.
I am talking about D'Antoni running teams. Of course the majority of their points are coming from Melo and Stat. Without an effective point guard, what other scoring options were there? My point is that their coaches style of play both requires a PG and makes that PG [look] good. Refer to Nash under D'Antoni if you don't believe me.
D'Antoni runs the pick n roll to death and yes, that creates a lot of assists and open 15 footers for PGs. ...But Nash IS good and would have been good running almost any offense.
D'Antoni is almost as much of a genius than Slip Flaunders.
Since Forbes is now a top notch source for sports news........I thought I'd add this read. http://www.forbes.com/sites/briansolomon/2011/09/21/forbes-400-sports-team-owners-with-best-records/
Before D'Antoni he wasn't that great. Lin did great today against the Cavs.
13 assists to 1 turnover on the night. I saw the last 5 minutes of the game and there were some incredible passes made. You can really tell that the other guys on the team enjoy playing with him. They were down 17 at one point and then Novak apparently hit 5 threes in the 3rd quarter. That dude can shoot. Since Lin was moved to the starting lineup 13 games ago, Novak has gone 41-86 from 3-point range (48% shooting and almost 10 points per game solely from beyond the arc). Just to repeat, he has hit FORTY-ONE three pointers since Lin. As far as I can tell, nobody in the league has made more over this stretch (Deron Williams has made 38 and Ryan Anderson has made 35 over their last 13 games). In the 12 games that Novak played before Lin, he hit a total of 12 threes. That's a dude that needed a point guard.
If I were that guy, I would buy lunch for Lin every day.
Six losses in a row and the Knicks are on the outside of the playoff picture looking in. Is Linsanity over now?
Separate names with a comma.

Fantasy Baseball Morning Update: Rest for Reds' Chapman?
Never forget.
Eric Stults gave us an acceptable effort last night, raising the streaming starter record to 94-55 for the season. Today's pick is Milwaukee's Marco Estrada (owned in 8.2 percent of FOXSports.com leagues) against the Braves, while Wednesday's selection is San Diego's Clayton Richard (11.1 percent owned) versus the Cardinals at PETCO.
On to the news:
- Aroldis Chapman had his second straight bad outing on Monday, walking three of five batters before getting yanked. The Reds are worried about Chapman, with Dusty Baker citing shoulder fatigue and saying after the game that "we might need to rest him for awhile." With a 9.5-game lead in the NL Central, the Reds can afford to be cautious with Chapman. I don't know what "awhile" means when it comes to a brief vacation for Chapman, but unless the Reds expressly define it, you need to hold him and hope for the best.
- Yankees 1B Mark Teixeira will miss approximately 10-14 more days thanks to his calf strain. Counting today, there are 23 days left in the regular season. If you can find an everyday player - like Tyler Colvin, owned in just 17.4 percent of FOXSports.com leagues - to replace Teixeira, go ahead and cut him. Nick Swisher and Steve Pearce have been filling Teixeira's shoes, and figure to keep doing so.
- As mentioned here yesterday, Jered Weaver (shoulder) is listed as the Angels' probable starter on Thursday against the A's.
- Padres OF Carlos Quentin left Monday's game due to soreness in his right knee. You should consider Quentin day-to-day, and not expect him to play tonight.
- Lance Lynn will take Jake Westbrook's place in the Cardinals' rotation on Thursday. Remember in June, when everyone thought Lynn would be the NL Rookie of the Year? Lynn seems to be working out some control issues since his recent switch to the bullpen, and I'd consider giving him an NL-only spot start this week.
- The Pirates have promoted speedy SS prospect Chase d'Arnaud, and will use him as a pinch runner. You need to be really desperate in any fantasy format to pick up a pinch runner, even if he has 37 steals this season.
- The Phillies seem prepared to give slugging Darin Ruf a chance to play left field down the stretch. Ruf had 38 homers in Double A this season, including 20 (!!!) in August. NL-only owners with power needs should give Ruf a look.
- Once-ballyhooed prospect Jenrry Mejia () is expected to make three starts for the Mets before the end of the season, starting with Saturday against the Brewers. Mejia had a 3.54 ERA at Triple A this season, but didn't miss many bats (39 K in 73 2/3 IP). I'll pass.
- Brewers 1B Corey Hart (foot) is still day-to-day after missing Monday's game. Hart talked Monday about getting a cortisone shot, which would make him miss a couple of days.
- Indians 3B Lonnie Chisenhall homered last night in his first game since June 29. The Indians' website says that Chisenhall will be worked into the lineup "gradually."
- Rockies C Ramon Hernandez left Monday's game with a hamstring injury, and could be out for awhile.
- The Cubs hope to get rookie OF Brett Jackson (knee) back in the lineup tonight after a three-game absence. Jackson has hit four homers, but has struck out an astonishing 48 times in 94 at bats.
- Braves SS Andrelton Simmons returned to the lineup last night after a two-month absence. He's just OK if you need everyday at bats from the shortstop position.
- FYI, we're discontinuing my weekly Tuesday baseball chats for the rest of the season. Hopefully you already know that you can find me on Facebook and Twitter if you have any questions.
See you back here tomorrow morning.

I'm considering attending the MTTP to attain a TEFL certificate. I've perused postings for vacancies in Russia and see that CELTA is preferred, but it's clear that attaining a CELTA certificate is more difficult in the US because of the existence of CEA and ACCET. MTTP designed their program to satisfy the CELTA curriculum, and claim that many sites accept their certificate after documentation of the programs curriculum is provided. Their program lightens the wallet by a hefty $2600, is 130 hours in length, and provides five hours of observed teaching. Characteristics are found here.
1. I have evidence that a particular vacancy would consider this program's certificate if documentation of their curriculum were provided, however, is the claim generally true that most sites would accept their certificate?
2. My wife graduated summa cum laude in slavic studies. We would like to spend at least a year in Russia together, she would employ herself over the internet doing medical transcription while I work teaching English. I imagine that most TEFLs are young, college-aged people without families, and imagine that having a wife and a child would hinder my ability to find a vacancy, so I wonder how I should handle this. Should I go there first and then try to find an apartment and then invite her? Should I bring it up during negotiations for the contract? Would my family's existence preclude overseas teaching altogether?
Thank you. -Pogonschik

Re: Small boat single handed hoisting
I also sail in the mountains of Colorado.
My boat is set up with slugs and a mast gate. I'll motor into the wind at an idle. There is a cleat on each stern corner of the boat so I'll run a rope from one cleat, a couple wraps around the tiller, then to the other cleat. This lets me make adjustments to the tiller, the wraps slide.
Then I'll go to the front of the cockpit and raise the main with the main sheet loose. Pull in the main, turn away from the wind, and shut off the motor.
Re: Small boat single handed hoisting
You can also put cleats on the side of your tiller and have
Lines or bungees connected to lines run from the sides of your boat, cleared to the tiller. It's easy to adjust and doubles as a sheet to tiller system.
Re: Small boat single handed hoisting
Really good to find this post as I have the same issues.
I can use a bungee as Jeff describes and it seems to work just fine. The main issue I have is that as soon as I turn into the wind and lose steerage the wind pushes the bow around. So I need to be pretty quick to hoist. I ordered a prefeeder and think it will help a lot.
Another frustrating item is getting the mainsheet loose enough to allow me to hoist but not so loose that the boom is swinging like a wild monkey. If I had a topping lift I'm sure it would be easier, but I don't yet.
I also need to add a couple of blocks to make my main halyard easier. On my Rhodes 19 the mast is stepped at the cabin floor with the halyard exiting there. It is cleated off at the centerboard trunk under the cabin, so I have to duck under there to cleat it off. Not far to go, but I would rather stay in the cockpit to do it.
It is great to read different solutions to the same issues, thanks all.
Re: Small boat single handed hoisting
Re sailhoisting shorthanded.
Simply rig up a steering line, helm to coaming block, forward round mast back to other coaming block, to other side helm. You can now steer from the mast.
Re: Small boat single handed hoisting
When I had a tiller steered boat, I would leave the shock chord rigged tight across the cockpit the entire time I was sailing. When I wanted to leave the tiller I would take a couple wraps around the end of the tiller and it would be held by friction. The neat thing about this is that you can make small precise adjustments by twisting the wraps a part of a turn around the tiller end. You can make a small twist and then watch what the boat does and either live with it or tweak to your heart's content.
Another thing is that you can shift your weight to steer the boat. You can learn to do this by setting the tiller to steer a straight line on a particular course. Then try steering the boat by moving your weight across the boat. It is amazing how effective this is on smaller boats, so much so that it is how I steered my 28 footer when on the foredeck jibing the spinnaker pole single-handed.

If you have two cleats on the sides of the cockpit in line with your tiller you can experiment with tying a line between them that wraps around the tiller with a loose clove hitch.
That acts as a tiller tamer and doesn't get in the way like a real tiller tamer does when you are actually sailing.
The friend who bought my Catalina 25 figured this trick out and it works great. It's much better than the Tiller Tamer that we once had on there.
Re: Small boat single handed hoisting
Looking at your deck photo it seems like you could get away with almost no holes in your deck. You should be able to bolt an eye to mount your turning block to the mast pivot bolt on your mast step, and as someone said above, you should be able to buy an extra block mounted on a track car that you could mount on your jib sheet track rather than bolt to the deck. (It will want to be further aft than you show it.) and so all you need is a cam cleat for the halyard.
Re: Small boat single handed hoisting
If I can't sail right off the dock, I row my 15'er out far enough to get some room, raise the jib and get sailing on a close reach. With the tiller lashed, I can go to the mast and raise the main as it luffs while the boat sails itself. I use the same method in my Mariner and my '22 after I shut off the motor.
Re: Small boat single handed hoisting
Bungee cord to "tame the tiller."
Head into the wind as best you can with a slight forward movement...
Ease the mainsheet completely (it'll flop some as you raise).
The sail slugs and the halyard run to the cockpit is really only useful together... if you are going to remain bolt rope the halyard to the cockpit will actually be a pain.
I am a 25 foot sailboat with bolt rope main, with the halyard run to the cockpit, and I usually jump the rope before the deck organizer when I am solo, and raise the main myself that way, then I take up the slack to the halyard after it's up.
But yeah, I'm on a tight lake in the hills too, and the gusts are brutal. Here's the best suggestion I can give you... duck deep into a cove on a windward side (to get shelter), head into the wind, you should have a drop of 50% or better of wind speed, THIS should get you a decent quiet place to raise your mainsail (this is how I do it solo sailing when the winds pipe up, but I still want to sail).
By the way that 165 is a sweet little wing keel boat, you'll have some fun with that. That was on my list at one point in my ladder of upgrade boats.
Welcome to the obsession.
PS. I get that the boat is a might bit tender for going forward to raise the main. You'll likely be MUCH happier with sail slugs, and a sail stopper, and that halyard run to the cockpit as you mocked up (I know - winter project - I am familiar with that)... this was my last winter: www.shnool.com - /images/capri25/Boat Projects-2012/ You'll get use to it all though.
Re: Small boat single handed hoisting
I used a tiller tamer on my Venture 22'. Worked great to head forward to hank on the head sail or raise the main.

Description of Research Expertise
Research Interests
Tumor Biology, Development, Stem Cells, Hematopoiesis, Immune Function
Research Techniques:
In vivo and in vitro models of hematopoiesis, transformation and immunity, retroviral transduction, bone marrow transplantation, ES cell culture and differentiation, cDNA cloning, cell sorting, video microscopy, knockout and RNAi technology, ChIP-Seq and global transcription analysis
Description of Research
A major area of interest of this laboratory is understanding the processes that lead to the development and differentiation of mature hematopoietic cells from a single hematopoietic stem cell. We are particularly interested in studying the processes that perturb these normal processes and cause leukemia. A primary focus of the laboratory is the role that Notch proteins play in regulating hematopoietic cell fate decisions and cancer. Notch proteins are a conserved family of receptors that regulate cell fate decisions in organisms ranging from Drosophila to humans. Using a variety of in vitro and in vivo approaches, we have shown that Notch proteins are key regulators of multiple hematopoietic cell fates. These include establishment of the T cell lineage and helper type 2 T cells. We are presently undertaking studies to identify the signaling pathways that control these and other cell fate decisions in hematopoiesis. In addition to their role in normal hematopoiesis, dysregulation of Notch signaling is a cause of human leukemia. We have developed a mouse model of Notch-related leukemia and are using this to study the signaling pathways that lead to oncogenic transformation. Using gene array and bioinformatics approaches, we have identified several direct transcriptional targets of Notch signaling that appear to mediate its effects in normal development and leukemia. In addition, we are developing and testing ways to block Notch signaling that may be useful in treating leukemia and other Notch-dependent diseases.
Rotation Projects
1. Characterization of Notch transcriptional targets in hematopoiesis and leukemia. This project will characterize potential direct transcriptional targets of Notch signaling that we have identified in a microarray screen. The project will involve verifying that these are direct transcriptional targets using chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP), EMSA, and reporter assays and then testing whether these targets are functionally important using retroviral transduction, apoptosis, proliferation, and differentiation in both primary and established cell lines.
2. Identification of genes that potentiate Notch transforming activity. We have induced a number of Notch T cell leukemias using retroviruses that express activated forms of Notch1. The retroviral vectors also contain enhancer elements that can activate transcription of genes in the vicinity of their integration site. We have established techniques to rapidly clone the genes that are activated by retroviral vector integration and will use both in vitro and in vivo assays to determine if they synergize with Notch to induce leukemia.
3. We have identified Tribbles as a novel oncogene in acute myelogenous leukemia. Very little is know about Tribbles function. This project will use biochemical and functional assays to determine the function of Tribbles in leukemia and normal hematopoietic development.

Garrett, Green Bay Pull Away for 71-49 Win in Opener
By: Andrew Gavin (@GBGavin)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) – Senior Vince Garrett (Chicago, Ill.) made 6-of-7 shots and shined in his Phoenix debut, scoring 11 of his team-high 15 points after halftime to lead Green Bay (1-0) to a 71-49 victory over visiting Northern Michigan in the men's basketball season opener on Saturday afternoon. The contest was the second all-time regular season game that the Phoenix played at the Kress Events Center.
After a NMU three-pointer, Green Bay held a 38-33 lead with 17:22 to play, but the Phoenix showed off its depth as seven different players scored during a 17-0 run which made it 55-33 with 9:51 to play. Garrett scored four points during the run, highlighted by an incredible putback dunk in traffic to make it 44-33 at the 16:08 mark.
With the run halted by a pair of Wildcats free throws, the two teams traded baskets before Garrett drained two threes in less than a minute to give Green Bay a 26-point lead (65-39) with 7:03 remaining.
Green Bay's stifling defense after halftime held the Wildcats to just 7-of-32 shooting from the field. For the game, the Phoenix shot 43.9 percent (25-57) and NMU was held to 30.5 percent (18-59).
Getting a jumper from senior Alec Brown (Winona, Minn.) and three points from junior Keifer Sykes (Chicago, Ill.), Green Bay jumped out to a quick 7-2 lead. The All-League duo struggled from the field, shooting a combined just 9-of-26 and 0-for-7 from long range, but both Brown and Sykes finished in double figures with 10 points each. Brown added eight rebounds and two blocks while Sykes grabbed four rebounds and tallied three assists.
Northern Michigan led 15-9 midway through the first half, but Green Bay responded with an 11-2 run to take the lead for good at 20-17. Three-pointers from Lamin Fulton (Philadelphia, Pa.) and Carrington Love (Milwaukee, Wis.) and a breakaway dunk from Sykes helped the hosts to a 34-27 lead at the break.
Love led the Green Bay bench and was the fourth Phoenix player to reach double figures with 10 points. Freshman Kenneth Lowe (Little Chute, Wis.) totaled five points and nine rebounds as all 11 active players saw the floor and scored.
Green Bay found itself in an early 11-4 hole in the rebounding battle, but the Horizon League leaders in rebound margin a season ago responded to claim a 45-39 edge on the glass. Sophomore Jordan Fouse (Racine, Wis.), who led the conference at 7.9 boards per game as a freshman, grabbed a game-high 10 rebounds.
Fouse and junior Greg Mays (Chicago, Ill.) each recorded three of Green Bay's nine blocked shots. The nine blocks tie for the fifth-most in a single game in program history.
Green Bay will return to the Resch Center next Saturday, welcoming No. 20/21 Wisconsin at 7 p.m. The game will be played in front of a sellout crowd and will also be televised live by Time Warner Cable SportsChannel.

Drake Tabbed To Compete In ITA Kick-Off Weekend
DES MOINES, Iowa - The Drake men's tennis team has been selected to participate in the 2013 Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) Kick-Off Weekend (Jan. 25-28, 2013). The Bulldogs will travel to Malibu, Calif., as the event's third seed to battle second-seeded Florida State at the Ralphs Strauss Tennis Center on the campus of Pepperdine University.
The match will be the first of the dual campaign for Drake, who finished the 2012 campaign ranked 47th nationally, while Florida State was rated 32nd. In the other half of the draw, No. 6 Pepperdine will face No. 57 Denver.
By virtue of their top-64 finish in the final ITA rankings, the Bulldogs earned an automatic bid to the event. The ITA held a national draft on Tuesday (June 5) with teams getting to choose one of 15 four-team locations. The ITA called out to each school, in rank order, at predetermined times. Highest ranked team not a host/on the board selected which of the 15 sites they wanted to go to. When called they chose where they wanted to play, then the next highest team was called and selected, and so on.
First-round winners and losers face each other in the second round. The 15 teams that win both matches advance to ITA National Team Indoor Championships hosted by the University of Washington, played two weeks later, Feb. 15-18, 2013.
"The kick-off event is a going to be a great way to start off our 2013 spring campaign competing against some of the top teams in the country," Drake head coach Evan Austin commented. "Since it's based solely on the final rankings, it's the toughest tournament of the year to qualify for. We have high expectations for 2012-2013 and will be looking forward to some great opportunities to play nationally ranked opponents in Malibu."

In any event, thank you so much for commenting. And I love your dragon, btw! GMV.
Thank you jzelts! I appreciate the compliment about my past work as well as on my dragon! (I have 2 more coming this week) I really do like this piece and since you actually elaborated further about it being a 'harmless greed' of sorts, I believe I will indeed vote for it.

It's only flying penguins. Most designers with half a grain of respectability would like it to encompass all penguins, but we must take what we can get. On the bright side, Pac-Man was rejected without qualifications
