|Topic Review (Newest First)
|I found this really cheap website with heavily discounted flow stuff. Dunno if its trustworthy but it was a hundred off a nxtfse. ordered it today, let you know when i get it.(if i get it lol *fingers crossed*) 2011 Flow Snowboard Bindings, 2011 Flow Snowboards, 2011 Flow Snowboard Boots
|My review is based strictly on personal preference. At the top of the hill I tightened all 4 straps as tightly as I could. I made sure the high back was forward and tight. Even after doing this multiple times, I could feel my boot slipping mid run. Wasn't a huge amount, but I noticed it every time. I'm using Flow 11 boots and a large binding. In terms of fit, there shouldn't be any closer to a tight fit than branded boots/bindings. I still think Flow is a great company, I just think I made a mistake by going with a lower tier binding.
I have two pairs of the flow flite bindings. I have had them for over 4 years now. which probably only equals 60 riding days, I am 6' 290. One pair looks brand new, the other a little more worn. I have not had one single issue with them. Im not sure how much more adjustable people want them, the strap can be adjusted to the front or back and the riser angle can also be adjusted. I love being able to strap in standing up and in under 2 seconds, slide my foot in and clamp it up... The only disadvantage to the flow, all flow bindings, is that when in deep deep powder it is hard to get the riser clamp off your leg and you would have to pull the two side clips in an emergency. I have spend time in the dark with my eyes closed, laying flat practicing getting the bindings off using the side clamps.... doable. As far as tightening.... just push the strap a little tighter, it just takes a second to get them snug again if they loosen up. I really am not sure why there would be an issue.....
Anyway, with my size and use, I say durable good product.
|I'm not trying to bash Flow. I looked at the nxt's at my local shop and they look remarkable. My issue with the flight 1's is just lack of tweakability. You get what you pay for. Looking to go big next time. Nxt's or something similar price wise.
We love our M9's and "Five's" good mid level binging from Flow if you want to stay in that brand.
I have the NXT SE and love them.
Flite 1 Review
So...I'm an idiot. Anyone who see's the title of this post will 100% agree. I decided to go super cheap for my first board.
I've been riding (Skate, Wake, some snow) for the better park of 8-9 years. I've got decent balance and understand the physics. After my first outing I was doing 180's and C turns mid run. My confidence has grown at a pretty rapid level.
The downside of the Flite 1's is the lack of the crank tightener on the straps. If you over tighten them at home, you have issues getting in tight on the hill. There's a bit of wiggle room once you're in and it feels like it takes a pretty heavy toll on your riding. Before I bought my set up, I rented once and the basic strap in's felt 100 times more reliable.
Moral of the story: If you're looking to get into boarding and are trying to do it on a budget, wait patiently until you can do it right. I'm already shopping for a better board and bindings.
Flow Flite 1
First and foremost, I've dug about 20 pages into a few bindings sections and found a few Flow topics. I've read about the pro's and con's of the particular brand and I understand that some people are "very" against them.
That's well and fine, but I'm just getting back into boarding and I'm on a pretty strict budget. I wanted to get a board as quick as possible and upgrade as I get more comfortable. That being said, I was looking for a 1st hand review of the Flite 1 by someone who has owned/used it for an extended amount of time.
I know it's the bottom end model, and I understand I can't expect anything breath taking. But that's not to say that there isn't more to dig out of a review. How's the difference between the 1 and 2? Are the 2's really so much more durable?
If that's the case, I can return them and upgrade a model. The price difference is relatively low and I'd like to ensure my re-adventure into boarding isn't in vain.
Constructive criticism if possible. Flamer spam is unwanted. I've read enough Flow-hate posts for this lifetime.

I manage the habitat at my duck club. We have about 400 acres set aside as a permanent closed zone/sanctuary. It is never hunted. There is a year round creek running through the middle of it and we heavily manage the rest for smartweed, swamp timothy and water grass production.
My problem is some of the members of my club want to open the closed zone to shooting for the last two weekends of the season. What to folks think about that? Is there any research or papers anywhere that I can consult?
My feeling is that any disturbance will discourage long term use of the closed area and negatively impact our success rates.

Hi Folks!
As I already announced in some "Hi, I'm new"-thread about half a year ago, I'm now closer to building my custom mando.
So here's the concept:
The "Skull" will be on the front of the helmet, the leg armor, as well as on the armor centerpiece and the cape. (hopefully). uhm and yes: this is not the final color.
This is the bucket and the armor:
I'm going go build it out of cardboard and Bondo. It seems to me, this is the easiest way to do it.
Above the visor it says N'jurkad, what means "Don't mess with me" in Mando'a, as all of you of course knew. I thought it was quite cool to write it in Aurebesh on the helmet, so that any species in the StarWars Galaxy could read it. Maybe I'll write it in mando'a instead of Aurebesh.
Armor: What do you think about the color scheme? The Gray is supposed to be "fresh" metal silver (unpainted armor).
And should I do some knee armor? I thought about saving time and energy if I don't make 'em... So what is your advice?
As far as the backplate is concerned, I'll do a rather short one, under which the cape will come out.
And maybe I'll change the shape of the shoulder armor, so that it has more the shape of my Skull. And maybe that skull is going to be on teh shoulder armor as well.
Gauntlets: I don't have any sketched concept of it, but I want to include hidden (vibro)blades like the Assassin in the Game Assassin's Creed has in both ones. Plus a flame thrower and some kind of other stuff I'm not sure about by now.
And finally: This is going to be the base for a blaster sidearm. I'll add a PVC Pipe and some cool screws etc as a barrel and I'll build a scope for it. I'm going to make a nice wooden handle, too.
I got a lot of old german leather ammo pouches from WWII. They'll serve as my belt.
As I'm a noob at propmaking and of course at doing Mandos at all, any advice is really appreciated. And please do not expect me to make a fast progress. I dont have too much time at the moment, and a lot of other projects going on. But I'll try hard!
Thanks and Greetings from Switzerland,

|General Technical Chat This section is for technical discussions relating to general maintenance, electrical issues, engine trouble, and recalls.
|Topic Review (Newest First)
I've just purchased a 2013 Focus, and it's my first with the MPG display. I've noticed several things that affect mileage here in Southern California:
1) Humidity and temperature. I'm getting 42 mpg on the freeway, but I had it up to 50 mpg one early cool, clear morning on the desert.
2) If I end up stopping when I've gained altitude, there's a difference going back. I had to think a while, because it might look flat, but it's not.
3) Sidewinds lower my MPG. So do even slight headwinds vs. tail winds. A slight elevation loss with a tailwind makes a difference.
But I think the suggestions about checking the calculations are valid. When I get mine on the open road, I plan to use the Highway mileposts between here and San Francisco to really test the odometer, and I will keep track of the actual gallons I put in. I did this once in my girlfriend's Toyota Highlander, and the computer MPG of 21 was actually 19 over about 600 miles.
|We took our new Focus 440 miles up and 440 miles back last week. We filled up at a local Spinx station and got 40 mpg going up, filled up at an Exxon there and got 37 mpg coming back. I'm tninking the amount of alcohol contaminating the gas from station to station, and even from the same station on different days could make the difference. It can be from 0 to 10%.
|Try calculating the mileage manaually for a few tanks also. My MPG display ususally reads 2+MPG higher than actual. Once it was dead on and once it read lower. Every other time it read way high.
+1 on using the pump method.
Use a log book to also make notes on driving speeds and conditions. To gain the most accuracy, use the exact same pump as much as possible, though "calibrated" they still vary.
Also check basics like tire pressure (goes down in cooler fall weather) and tire wear pattern in case of a bump causing alignment issues.
Please report back your findings.
That sounds like something is screwy with the gauge reporting. Have you double checked the gauge's accuracy? Also, consider it might be resetting itself in the morning instead of holding the information for long term accuracy. For example, if I reset the gauge while sitting still, fuel economy shows up as something you'd expect from an old big block with dual carburetors. When I start moving, it goes up. If I reset while driving at highway speeds mileage is very high, then it goes down. This doesn't affect my overall mileage for the entire tank which you can double check in the old fashioned method: fill up to where the pump clicks off, reset the trip odometer, drive, use up as much of the tank as you can because it's more accurate that way, then refill the tank again to where the pump clicks off. Note the number of gallons on the pump when finished- rounding up or down to tenths or even whole numbers is ok. Divide your trip odometer mileage by the number of gallons, and you have your miles per gallon to double check your gauge.
Now I wouldn't be surprised if there is a difference of 2-3 mpg or so between both methods. The pump method is not entirely accurate, and neither is the gauge. For example, if you top up when you filled up the first time, and then stop the first time it clicks the second time- you're probably putting in a 1/2 gal or so less. Let's see what that does: 300 mi /10 gals = 30 mpg, but / 10.5 = 28.5 mpg. Also that pump cuts off depending on vapor pushing back on the nozzle, you might have more or less vapor in your tank when you fill up, so even if you stop at the first click the tank is likely to be filled up to a different point. Topping off would seem to be more accurate- but then how much did you drip out? None of it is precise, so don't be surprised, but that doesn't mean that double checking isn't informative.
|How many miles on it? Oil been changed yet?
Swing by your dealership, or mention this concern the next time you have a scheduled maintenance appointment/oil change. Your Service Techs will be able to diagnose any possible issues and address your concerns about fuel efficiency.
In the mean time, you can check out Ford's tips for improving fuel economy here: http://owner.ford.com/servlet/Conten...=1239636411265

Have a great weekend!
2012 SE gas mileage decreasing
Before anyone gives me the "it's winter gas" excuse, please read through before commenting.
Since none of my previous cars had a fuel economy guage, I've been religious about getting the most out of my gas since getting my 2012 SE Sport Hatch in April. For the first few months (say, until August), I was averaging 36mpg. Which for me is great, considering my last Focus got about 28. I would reset one of the gauges at every fill up and watch the readings in order to maximize my mpgs.
Typically, I would drive to work on a single-lane road about 40 miles each way averaging 55-60mph, A/C on. I would watch the gauge from a new fill up slowly count down from 42mpg until it settled someplace in the 36's.
However, I now can't get the average mpg past 34. It might be winter gas, but it started happening in August. Do they change the gas that early? I livein Florida, do we even get winter gas here?
The other thing that makes me a little worried...when I'd fill up and reset the gauge, it would start at 42mpg and drop DOWN as driving progressed. Now, it starts at 20mpg and counts its way UP. What's up with that?
I filled up on Tuesday, reset the guage, and drove about 4 miles home. Gauge showed 32mpg. When I started the car the next morning, the guage showed 24 mpg. ?????
Any suggestions on what else to look for, to indicate possible problems, is appreciated.
Thanks so much.

Way back in early September, I paid this guy almost $150 for a set of shin tools and a set of knee darts, in which he promised me he would send out my items the following weekend.
After waiting over 2 months, he reappears, apologizes on the board here and promises (on his threads anyways), that he will send my items out right away. This was October 24th. 3 weeks later, I'm still waiting.
After numerous PMs to him and posting on his sales threads without any reply at all from him, I'm really running out of options here.

At Uniplaces we make the process of booking an apartment as easy as possible for both tenant and landlord.
That's why we have our own team of professional photographers that verify our properties and pick our landlords carefully in order to save time on viewings: we think it's old-fashioned and time-consuming.
You can look at forty different apartments on our platform in the same amount of time that it takes to see a room.
The pictures you see here haven't been photoshopped, so they'll be really accurate.
If you've still got any doubts, we'll keep the money that you transfer us until 24h after your move-in date.
If something's not exactly what you saw online, we'll help you move somewhere else and return your money.
We can only give you the contact details of your landlord after your booking is accepted. But we can guarantee that Uniplaces chooses the landlords it works with very carefully.
Besides, we've had students whose favourite part was living with a local!
Landlords and host families can be great city guides, help you out with translations and even become your friends.
As soon as your booking is accepted, you're given the landlord's contact details. Then, you can discuss all details directly with them, such as when you'll be moving-in.
Students move in and out at different times, so your flatmates might change during your stay.
It's a great opportunity to make new friends!
We personally speak to students who we place in Uniplaces apartments and are sure we will find the right place for you as well!
At the bottom of the property page, you have a calendar where you can see the availability of that room/apartment, according to the landlord.
But if you're still unsure about that we're happy to help.
Tell us your move-in and move-out dates and we will double-check if the place is available for you!
There are two different types of deposits: the Holding and Security deposits.
By clicking on "Deposit" at the bottom of the offer page you will get more information about each type of deposit.
In general, the deposit is paid to cover for any potential damages that may occur during your period of stay or will be used as rent compensation in case you leave earlier than originally planned.
If no damages occur and you leave on the agreed move-out date, your deposit should be refunded by the landlord in a way you both agree on.

Luther had become convinced that the medieval church had been teaching some falsehoods in regards to the clarity of Scripture and other matters, and Eck took the counter position. After the debate, a written record of the exchange was sent to the theologians at the University of Paris, and they determined that Eck had won the debate.

Arsène Wenger believes sport can be a force for good in the fight against racism - and says society should follow its lead.
Discrimination in football has been in the headlines due to high-profile incidents involving Luis Suarez and John Terry, and the refusal of a number of black players to wear T-shirts in support of the Kick It Out campaign last weekend.
Jason Roberts and Rio Ferdinand were among those who protested, prompting the PFA to issue a six-point action plan to deal with racism and other forms of discrimination in the sport.
Wenger wants to see such behaviour eradicated but he believes that sport is already setting a good example.
"I'm a bit surprised that suddenly it becomes such a massive problem because I feel that sport can be a massive example for [the] fight against racism," said Wenger. "Suddenly it looks like we have a problem inside our sport, which I don't believe we have.
"Sport has one big advantage. You can measure the performances of people. If you're good, you play. That's why I think sport can be a massive example of what society should be, it should follow the example of sport.
"That we suddenly have that problem is for me quite surprising because overall I don't feel you ever leave any player out for a racial reason. You only field your best team and you just look at the quality of the players, or what you think is the quality of the players.
"I think we can set a huge example. I don't think in England there's a specific problem about that. But having said that, I'm not in their place. If some black players feel they are discriminated [against], they have to come out and speak about it. I personally didn't feel that.
"I don't know exactly what they [the PFA] want to do and I do not know the problem well enough to speak in detail about it. I just think in sport, it's about performance - and it should be in society as well. I'm always ready to fight for that.
"Sport can be the head of a society because of that. Because as well, there is no language problem. If you don't speak the language, you can still play with a player if you're good enough. Therefore, there's very little discrimination in our job."
There are relatively few black managers in British football and Wenger is surprised by that.
"I don't know [why it is]," he said. "For me they are welcome. I don't see any difference between black or white. I could never understand that difference.
"You judge people on facts and on what they did in life. I never considered where you come from or what colour you are. I think if you're good enough, you help people. If they have a good attitude, you help people.
"I believe as well, we have to keep the priorities right. That means people who want to do a job, who have the qualities to do a job, to give them the job."

One phrase that I and other bloggers use frequently to describe missteps caused by privilege is "blinded by privilege." Many bloggers that I intensely respect and admire have used this phrasing, and I have myself:
From my post on the thin-fat binary:
"And while I've embraced wearing clothes that fit and being an occasional 16, I still benefit from thin privilege, and I'm still blinded by it."From my post on Jessica Simpson:
Her privilege blinded her, and she made that remark borne of ignorance of how racially loaded that term is.Why is it necessary to describe racist, sizist, sexist mishaps of language with a term used to describe a disability?
I understand that it's an evocative word that brings to mind exactly what one tries to evoke when talking about the spots that our privilege has prevented us from perceiving. But using "blindness" to describe the oppression that we unknowingly inflict on people is othering and stigmatizing and ultimately able-ist.
Using the term "blindness" to reflect mishaps of privilege is a way to further ingrain the oppression of those with little or no sight. By constructing the disablity of blindness as something that an ignorant person needs to educate themselves about, that someone needs to overcome, it minimizes the permanence of lack of sight and turns it into a fault, a flaw. It's also constructing blindness as something that needs to be fixed, as something that leads to misery and inflicted hurt, rather than part of a full and happy life. It's even more problematic when the "privilege-blindness" is constructed as willful - putting one's blinders on to avoid looking at uncomfortable truths. This supposes that the disability of blindness is somehow false or temporary.
This may seem as if I'm somehow overly concerned with minutiae, but it's necessary to be careful about my language when I'm discussing how to end or mitigate oppression. "Lame" and "retard" have become thoroughly unacceptable in progressive discourse, but we are turning another word into a slur by saying that being "blind" is a status to be avoided, something that will hurt others. Blind has been turned from a word describing disabilities into a pejorative attacking ignorance. It's made being blind synonymous with stupidity and having sight synonymous with truth.
When I say that I must open my eyes to oppression, I must see my own racism, I must stop being blinded by my cis privilege, what am I saying about the people who are literally blind? Are they included in the discussion of working towards a better world, or does their blindness prevent them from truly seeing oppression? Why are my views on oppression and racism and sexism insights?
The stigmatization of blindness has very real consequences that significantly impair and impact the blind community. As Alena recently wrote:
Have you ever noticed that calling someone blind is like calling them a four letter word? It's like being blind is so bad that we have to cover it up by calling people visually impaired or low vision because that is some how better than being called blind....I bring this up, because as I mentioned in an earlier post, braille literacy amongst blind children in the U.S. is only 10%. I feel, and many people probably agree that one of the reasons why literacy is so low is because parents, teachers, and school administrators don't want to label a child as "blind" if they have any vision. Everyone knows that only totally blind children need to learn how to read braille, right? Wrong.
Is this hard? Yes. The language of sight is everywhere in discussing our understanding - insights, being able to see someone's point, etc. And I'm not totally sure that "to see" meaning "to understand" is necessarily privileging sight to the degree that "blinded by privilege" is - it seems that "see" is something that blind people are understood to be able to do, in the sense of understanding.
In discussion of "blind" as ableist language in another context, Shelley said in a well-received comment at Feminist Philosophers:
What is actually going on is that blindness is being metaphorically equated with not knowing, with not having knowledge, or not having knowledge of something: blindness is not knowing, blindness is ignorance, blind people cannot be knowers.In response, Roy over at "No Cookies for Me" drew a comparison to left-handedness:
It got me thinking about the use of the term "right" to mean "opposite of left" as well as "correct." Couldn't someone who is left-handed reason that "left" equals "wrong"?But it's not the same thing. Being left-handed no longer carries a significant stigma (I could be wrong about this, being right-handed myself). Even if there is a stigma, it's nowhere near the very clear and present stigma attached to blindness.
By using language referring to a disability to denigrate the oppression of others, I am enacting linguistic oppression and hatred. As a person with sight, I am going to completely discontinue the use of a phrase that alienates and others an entire group of people.

Ok, well I guess if we're going to start a new forum for other SW costumes, I'll help get things started as well. Here are a few pics of my Ep2 clone pilot. I don't have many due to me only trooping in it twice, with only one being in it's completed state. So, here are a few shots I like. The first pic is at the Clone Wars premier (my sister, littlebekahc , calls it "marshmallow clone"). The second is with some friends from my local FanForce group while at LegoLand Star Wars Days 2008, this past weekend.
I did incorporate a hidden hinge and pin closure on my forearm armor, and snaps on my shins...hmm, wonder where I got those ideas from?


text: We have 4 guards who can start, and not one bigman that would start on any team challenging for a title, wtf? Trade someone, it needs to happen, hurry it up, this is getting ridiculous. While we're at it, what is with the reality show in the making with all the rookie forwards too? Only one front court on the team is (arguably) good, everybody else is a nice storyline for some ESPN reality show. The wayward veteran, the former #1 pick, the skiniest player since manute bol, the great white hope. As fun as it will be to watch this play out, it is clear that one or two of these guys will be gone before next season starts, lets just hurry it up and get it over with. Make a package deal and get somebody here that can play defense for the next few seasons, I don't know if I can handle getting blown out by the grizzlies, even if it is preseason.

Degree or Program Details
This major gives students a broad view of the world with an emphasis on developing regions. The core ensures that students have broad exposure to major world religions, international politics and government, recent global history and relationships between geography, culture, arts and society. This major is a good point of departure for pursuing an international-related master's degree and/or many careers, including international business, diplomacy and fields related to human development.
Additional Policies for International Studies Majors
International studies majors must demonstrate proficiency in a language other than English at the 202 level or higher. This can be accomplished by completing a 202 (or 300, 305, or 400) course in a language or by verification through the Modern Languages and Literatures Department (i.e. determined by examination or through some other means of confirming proficiency).
International studies majors must have a study-abroad experience, normally in a non-English speaking country, for at least 12 weeks, including a minimum of nine weeks of study through an approved college-level institution. Please see the Study Abroad section of this bulletin. This must be approved in writing by an international studies academic adviser. Up to 12 credits may be applied to the area and advanced disciplinary studies requirement of the major with prior approval of the academic adviser. International students or resident aliens who wish to major in international studies may petition the international studies academic adviser for exemption from the requirement for study abroad.
A course in economics is required for international studies majors. (An EC course from foundations of social sciences is recommended.)
A program approval for international studies majors and minors must be prepared and approved by an academic adviser from the Modern Languages and Literatures Department and a copy forwarded to the Registrar's Office.

Re: Largest Semi-Trailerable Sailboat ???
I have three sitting on trailers under tarps in my yard. I agree, it's great that they aren't "eating", no pressure, just enjoyment.
Don't forget, that when you turn on the interior lights, the one way mirrors will work the other way, you will be looking in a mirror and anyone outside will be looking in at you. And they cut down on light coming in. I would rather have simple old curtains, adjustable for light or privacy.
Glad you have work!
Re: Largest Semi-Trailerable Sailboat ???
Hey Lou, just thought I would say hello and hope you have a Merry Christmas as well.
Re: Largest Semi-Trailerable Sailboat ???
Good for you that you found a boat and seen to have the step by step long term drive that will take see yourself through.
Merry Christmas, Lou
Re: Largest Semi-Trailerable Sailboat ???
Just an update...
The 30 ft Seafarer is "On Hold" at the minute. I ended up taking a job that is 1600 miles from the house. Left out of here Aug 22, just flew in last Friday (Dec 20) for the Christmas holidays. Four months since I saw my wife, but we've done this before. Doing my kind of projects in a rented apartment were my work is, is impossible, but one does what ever they have to for money and health insurance. It'll just sit there under the tarp and wait for me. No options... always have to have work. Not able to retire yet... but it will be my retirement toy in a few years. But being that it lives on its trailer under a tarp AT HOME... means its stopped eating too until I decide to feed it.
next steps:
- paint the hull (bottom for sure, maybe the topsides)
- pull the single cyl Farymann and rig and install the V twin
- design up a conventional mast raising system (not hard)... but I also am designing a totally "hands off" folding mast system (I'll remove and leave Seafarer's original mast intact...but this will take a couple winters to build so I''ll do a conventional system to start with)
- pull the junk leaky ports and rebuild with one way mirrored poly sheet encompassing all five per side similar to newer designs... ventilation will be trough the twin hatches.
- rebuild the hot water system (he lied...the one in it is junk... wasn't even hooked up and was rotten... lying bastard... one of many lies concerning subsystems... I hate buying anything anymore!)
She's a good boat but he just let her fall apart in some ways on systems... she'll feel a lot better when I'm done. Interior and wood works is fine, just needs cleaning.
Re: Largest Semi-Trailerable Sailboat ???
Four weeks should be plenty for that trip even if you take your time and enjoy the scenery. If you enjoy the scenery too much you can always pull out somewhere north and not have much more driving from the middle of the state.

Wondering about what it would take to sail say from just north of Detroit MI on Lake Huron, up and around and down Lake Michigan to Muskegon. We have friends in between Muskegon and Detriot on I96 where we could leave the truck and trailer for a month or whatever. Who knows yet... just wondering out loud... maybe simply be too far to do in four weeks and not be too much like work. Its a ways around there.
BTW, the replacement Farymann S30 (V twin) is home now. 900 hrs is all it has... and was a running takeout due to bad hull mounts... he decided to re-power with more horse in his 38 ft 20000 lb sail and since that would have required the same work on the engine bed as a repair would need, he decided now was the time (well two years ago). The engine pushed it 30 miles the day before it was pulled. Its been stored inside. Its now home getting ready to bench it up and test run... may or may not refresh it... depends on oil seepage... if it needs seals I'll open it up and refresh it. It'll almost triple the hp over the single cylinder Farymann that's in this 30 ft Seafarer now. Exactly what I want, hull speed at 1/2 rpm... lost of extra thrust when needed.
I am "collecting" Farymann engines BTW if any of you have any you'd think of parting with. S30, R30, or P22. The V twins. Complete is preferred, but will considier others. PM me.

Seeing you are in Maine, I saw this one for sale that's closest to you.
1976 Nor'Sea Sailboat
The asking price seems high to me but that's just from the limited info shown.
They are usually sold between people through the Yahoo owners group. If you were interested in getting one, join the group and post a message of your interest. Never know what comes up. Just know, even for the age, they tend to sell higher than other boats of the same vintage.
Good Luck!
I can surely appreciate quality though, and if I see one for sale I'll check it out.

text: Retrospective moves on to the 1989 World Championships. The key facts in relation to these world championships are:- Kurt Browning wins the first of his 4 world titles. Fadeev led after the compulsories, with Petrenko 2nd and Filipowski 3rd. Bowman was 4th and Browning 5th. However, both Fadeev and Petrenko suffered falls in their short programs, thereby making way for both Bowman and Browning to move up. Browning won the SP with a superb performance, and that moved him up to 2nd overall. Bowman's 2nd place in the SP, moved him up to first overall. Browning then won the LP and took the title, with Bowman 2nd (both in the FS and overall). For the 2nd consecutive world championships running, Browning landed a 4T in his FS, although the landing was slightly two footed. Midori Ito wins her first and only world title. Claudia Leistner led after the compulsories, with Trenary 2nd and Ito 6th. Ito then won the short program, with Trenary finishing 2nd. This moved Trenary up to 1st overall, with Ito 3rd (Leistner 2nd). Ito then produced what I think was one of the greatest ever performances of a program by a ladies singles skater, to win both the FS and the title. Her LP contained all 6 different types of triple jump (7 triples in total), including a 3T+3T combination and 3A (she had landed the first ever 3A by a lady in 1988 at the Aichi Prefecture Regional Competition, and then landed one for the first time internationally at the 1988 NHK Trophy). It changed the whole landscape of Ladies figure skating forever, forcing others to inject more difficult content into their programs to remain competitive (especially with compulsories being phased out altogether after the 1989/90 season) Trenary had a disastrous FS and fell to 3rd overall, with Leistner taking the Silver medal. Ekaterina Gordeeva & Sergei Grinkov regain their world title, having lost it the previous year when Gordeeva had come down with the Flu and fallen in the LP. They won both the SP and LP at these championships to win their 3rd world title easily. Kristi Yamaguchi & Rudy Galindo finished 5th. Yamaguchi also took part in the Ladies singles, where she finished 6th. After finishing 2nd at 4 consecutive world championships behind Bestemianova & Bukin, Marina Klimova & Sergei Ponomarenko finally win the world title. They won easily. The Duchesnay's finished 3rd. Their OSP was highly controversial. Their feather boa and straw hat were considered props (as opposed to being part of their costumes) by some judges, and received deductions. They also received deductions from some judges for using vocals in their music. Evgeni Platov finished 6th in the Ice Dance with Larisa Fedorinova. The following season, Platov's coach, Natalia Dubova, changed his partner to Oksana Grishuk. Grishuk & Platov would go on to win 4 world titles and 2 Olympic titles (becoming the only ice dancers to win 2 Olympic titles), and they would win 20 consecutive competitions between 1994 and 1998. Nevertheless, the road was not a smooth one. As a result of problems between Grishuk and Maya Usova, Grishuk left Dubova's group in 1992. Platov acquired a new partner, whilst Grishuk attempted to find a new one in Germany, before returning to her previous coach, Natalia Linichuk. Platov then decided to re-team with Grishuk in the Autumn of 1992, and they were then coached by Natalia Linichuk. Platov later said of his partnership with Grishuk: "It's like being a husband and a wife. Sometimes, you fight. Sometimes, you walk away and calm down. I met her a long time ago, and I still remember her as a little girl on the ice. She was so little. So active. Usually, little girls are boring. But that girl. Oh, there was a fire on ice." He added: "It's hard to change her mind. She fights every step. But it works out. That's why she is so good."

Computers in Chemistry
Computers are now in all labs throughout the world of chemistry and the Department has kept pace with the rapid growth of this technology. We have 40+ computers in the chemistry department including laptop computers for use in the general chemistry lab and 3-D workstation computers in the Computational Chemistry Lab. Two parallel computing clusters, one with 30 processors and a second with 50 processor cores and two Tesla GPUs, are located in the BDK Science Center. Wittenberg faculty and students have also taken advantage of other computing resources available through a very high speed statewide network.
All courses in the department that are designed for science majors incorporate computers in a variety of ways. This includes data acquisition, data analysis, modest and state-of-the-art computational labs, and Computer Assisted Instruction in the form of several tutorial programs. All Chemistry students become familiar with data acquisition, data analysis using spreadsheets and molecular modeling programs. All computers are networked and have internet access.

If all other shifts are normal, it's more likely a sticking 1-2 valvetrain. To change fluid, you need to drop the pan. You will also want to replace the filter while you're in there. The trick to dropping the pan is to do so without bathing in ATF. The best way to do this is to use a large drain pan and loosen the pan bolts in a pattern, starting from the front. Generally, the fluid will begin to drain from the front of the pan as you loosen the bolts. Once the bolts are loosened, remove all but one bolt on each side close to the rear of the pan. Then, while supporting the pan with one hand, remove the last two bolts and gently roll the pan towards the front, allowing the remaining fluid to pour into the pan. On some installs, the rear crossmember restricts access to the rear pan bolts so that you have to raise the rear of the trans slightly to get those bolts. On these units, I generally remove those bolts first, then move to the front and follow the pattern I detailed earlier. The filter just pulls loose by hand with a little twisting back and forth. The filter to case seal may be either rubber or rubber embossed steel. Using a large screwdriver, you can carefully pry it out. Do not dig the screwdriver tip into the case or you,ll create an internal leak.
Recognize that the 700R4 holds about 12 quarts of fluid. Much more than the pan holds. When at rest, the fluid is way above the edge of the pan and will begin to drain as soon as the pan seal is broken. In a pan drop service, you'll replace about 5 quarts of fluid. You can have a shop that is so equipped perform a fluid exchange, using a machine that is designed for this. I do this here at my shop. We run 16 quarts through the trans via the cooler lines. In reality, with intermixing of old and new in the trans, it probably actually replaces about 7-8 qts of the total fluid. But it's better than nothing. Remember the Lubeguard. Lubeguard is a great product that doesn't have any affect on seals and doesn't try to be a fix all. It's just a combination of friction modifiers and lubricants that improves valve operation and reduces wear of bearings and bushings.
I just got back from a ride around town and now its completely fine, I don't get it.
It now shifts 1-2 at 1500rpm around 15-20 mph just like when I bought it.
I'm now starting to think the t.v cable setup is getting caught on something
Yes its only the 1-2 shifts that hold too long, the car only has 55k on the dash, trans has never been rebuilt at least to my knowledge (bought last year).
The T.V cable is fine, I didn't change it since I bought the car.
Changing the fluid and filter sounds good, any tips to do so?
I've never changed atf or even dropped the pan (my first car)
|ASE Doc
I assume from your description that it shifts normally from 2-3, 3-4. If its shifting late in all gears, it could be a sticking governor, or you TV cable or valvetrain may be sticking or faulty. If it's only shifting late from 1-2, I would suspect a sticky 1-2 valvetrain. Has the trans ever been rebuilt? If not, it will have a fair amount of clutch material built up in the pan. This gets into the fluid and collects throughout the transmission. This can cause valves to stick. Also, the valve body uses aluminum bushings around steel valves. The aluminum wears and the valves begin to catch on the ridges formed in the aluminum bushings. Some of these units used an aluminum valve body that wears in the valve bores and needs to be either repaired or replaced.
You could try servicing the trans fluid and filter and adding a product like Lubeguard. The Red Lubeguard is good for transmissions that take Dexron II or III. Lubeguard adds a little extra lubrication to the fluid and can help things move a little better. However, if this is a high mileage unit, you most likely need an overhaul which includes a thorough inspection of the valve body.
|Oh and I used seafoam motor treatment not the trans tune. The Impala is bone stock except for the headers .
700r4 shifting
Hey guys,
I have a 85 Impala with the carb'd 305 and 700r4
Its been about a week since I drove it but today I decided to use some SeaFoam and take her for a spin.
Before today it would shift fine without a problem but after I used the SeaFoam it seems to hold 1st a lot longer, around 3k it shifts from 1st and it jerks a tad like I have a shift kit (I don't )
The only things that changed since the last time I drove is the outside temp(got colder), installed headers and used SeaFoam.
So what do you guys think is goin on? Is my trans going out?!

Got any pics of condensation in a honeybee hive ?
EXACTLY WRONG !! Idea is to ENCOURAGE....... condensation. BELOW thermocline !
Solution is insulation not ventilation. IMHO
:) Oh boy......I tried :)
But Finski what if a meteor falls from the sky and knocks a hole in the roof of my well insulated home.
Do you have insuarance?- If you have, then wait 15 minutes before you call to fire station
Quote from: Maryland Beekeeper on January 12, 2013, 11:15:37 PMGot any pics of condensation in a honeybee hive ? They make any sense. Idea is avoid condensation, not to make it.

Poland Travel Information
- Flight to Europe
- cost for visa an ticket to poland
- Got a question or comment about Poland? Ask a Travel Expert!
The Basics
GMT +1 (GMT +2, Apr - Oct)
Electrical current is 230 volts, 50Hz. The standard two-pin European style plugs are used.
The national language is Polish. English is widely understood in tourist areas.
Travel Health
There are few health risks associated with travel to Poland. Those visiting forested areas are advised to seek medical advice about inoculations for tick borne encephalitis, and take tick bite prevention measures due to the presence of Lyme disease. Vaccinations may be recommended for hepatitis A, hepatitis B and typhoid, although those eating only in restaurants and hotels can safely disregard the typhoid vaccination.
Poland has a reciprocal health agreement with the UK and most EU countries, whose citizens are entitled to low-cost emergency medical treatment on presentation of a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC), but full health insurance cover is still advised. Medical facilities and standards of health care are good, but not many nurses or doctors speak English. If you take prescription medication along, be sure to bring a signed and dated letter from a doctor detailing what it is and why it is needed.
Tipping is not customary in Poland, but small gratuities of 10 percent or so can be offered for excellent service. In restaurants, when your bill is collected, saying 'thank you' signals to the waiter/waitress that they can keep the change.
Safety Information
Tourists should be alert to the risk of robbery in tourist areas in large cities in Poland, particularly in the vicinity of hotels, markets and banks. Vigilance against theft should also be exercised at central railway stations, as well as on overnight long distance trains, and when travelling on public transport between Warsaw's Frederic Chopin Airport and central Warsaw. Avoid walking alone at night. Tourist sites, areas near big hotels, money exchange facilities and ATMs are popular with thieves. Having said that, visits to Poland are usually trouble free, and the precautions travellers should take are merely the safety measures advised for cities all over the world.
Local Customs
Jay walking is an offence in Poland, and is punishable with a fine. Public drunkenness is severely viewed; police will take drunk people to drying out clinics until sober and the person will be charged for the stay, and driving after drinking alcohol is punishable by law.
Poland has an interesting mix of the old and the new, and this is apparent in the business world too. Women can expect a kiss on the hand rather than a handshake from the older generation and one can expect to be warmly offered drinks during meetings; it is impolite to refuse. Although the Polish are hospitable and friendly, business is still conducted formally. Punctuality is important, dress should be formal and conservative (a suit and tie the norm) and business cards are exchanged. Use titles and first names unless otherwise indicated. English is widely spoken, though attempting some basic Polish phrases will be appreciated. Business hours in Poland are traditionally 7am to 3pm Monday to Friday, with a long lunch taken after 3pm. Western influence, however, means that hours are starting to shift to the more common 9am to 5pm.
The international access code for Poland is +48. Mobile phones work throughout the country; local operators use GSM and 3G networks. Internet cafes are available in most towns.
Duty Free
Travellers to Poland over 17 years arriving from non-EU countries do not have to pay duty on 250 cigarettes or 50 cigars or 250g tobacco; 1 litre wine and 1 litre spirits; cosmetics and medicines for personal use; gifts up to the value of €175. Travellers to Poland arriving from within the EU do not have to pay duty on 800 cigarettes or 200 cigars or 1kg smoking tobacco; 10 litres spirits, 90 litres wine and 110 litres beer. Prohibited items include birds and poultry arriving from countries infected with Avian influenza. The export of all articles of artistic, historic or cultural value are subject to special regulations.

Women's Soccer Plays to 1-1 Draw at Drake
The tie put Green Bay's record at 2-2-2, while Drake moved to 0-4-2.
A flurry of offensive attacks started the match for Green Bay. Hannah Kernen (Belleville, Wis.) put a shot on goal that was blocked out over the endline, resulting in a corner kick taken by Hekla Palmadottir (Akranes, Iceland). Traffic in the goal box gave Ahna Logan (Roseville, Minn.) an attempt on goal, but the ball sailed high.
After a span of five minutes that saw Drake's Ashlie Stokes put two shots on goal, including one that hit the post, the Phoenix offense stepped up again. In the 17th minute, Emily Friedl (Kenosha, Wis.) took a shot that was saved by DU's Andrea Swanson to create another set piece. Chandra Eigenberger (Green Bay, Wis.) took the corner kick and Sydney Born (Edina, Minn.) sent the ball towards an open net, but the Drake defense stepped up and made a team save to keep the scoreboard empty.
It was short lived however, as the Bulldogs struck in the 19th minute. Rebecca Rodgers drew into a one-on-one situation with Phoenix keeper Katy Plilarzyk (Madison, Wis.) and capitalized, drawing Pilarzyk off her line before sending the ball to the lower corner for a 1-0 advantage.
The score remained in favor of the hosts at 1-0 going into the half, despite the Phoenix leading in both shots, 10-8, and corner kicks, 5-1.
It was a battle in the second half but the Green Bay offense kept growing the pressure, creating several opportunities to find the back of the net. Those chances finally came to a culmination in the 80th minute. An Eigenberger corner kick found the head of Hartmann, who sent it home to knot the score at 1-1.
Both squads saw several opportunities to try and score in the overtime sessions but were unable to make the most of them, ending in a 1-1 draw after 110:00 of play.
On the final scoresheet, Green Bay held advantages in shots, 21-17, and corner kicks, 9-1. Pilarzyk played the entire match, making six saves, while Kernen had a team-best five shots.
The Phoenix continues its three-game road trip on Wednesday, facing DePaul in Chicago at 4 p.m.

By Nick Teale
Theo Walcott has described this season as a "massive" one for him and says it's time he pushed on and showed exactly how good he can be.
The striker missed out on the England squad for the World Cup at the end of an injury-hit season. But having completed a full pre-season, the 21-year-old is ready to make a firm impression on the Premier League.
"It is a massive season for me," he said after England's win over Hungary on Wednesday.
"After the disappointment of the summer I know what I have to do.
"I need to play as many games as I can for Arsenal, week-in week-out and show everyone what I can do.
"I am 21 now and it is time for me to push on. I am looking forward to the next step.
"I've just had a very good pre-season, I'm happy to be back playing football now and I want to show everybody what I can do this season. I want to express myself, relax, enjoy myself and play my football this season.
"I think a lot of people haven't seen me play throughout a whole season. In previous seasons I've put a lot of pressure on myself, saying I don't want to get injured and things like that.
"But when something doesn't go well for you, you just have to forget about it and move on to the next one. That's what I'll do this season."

I'm with you guys...I like Pinder's pattern best, but I think it should be on a white fabric, or at the very least, a very light baby blue...most of all the film shots and posters I have (or have seen) give the impression of the shirt being either one of those colors....I think the perception of the general public would be the same either way; they will know who you are supposed to be. :)
The scale of the hexes, based on the interregation scene pics, look to be 1" to 1.25" across the facets.
Another question I have is the type of fabric it will be...Ledger's shirt seems to have a slight sheen to it, like satin or a nylon mix...it's not plain old cotton.
Sinister... those shoes are bitchin', man...excellent reproduction! :D Where did you get those socks? Hand painted?
So...are we down to a reasonable cost-per-yard estimate yet?

|Topic Review (Newest First)
As to affection - accept what is comfortable for the dog.
As to the kennel - maybe in a few months, hang out with her in the kennel. (You in the kennel with her.) I would not expect the dog to be happy in the kennel when they could see me outside working - at least not on the initial go round. Use the same command for that one as for getting in the crate. Make going in positive.
On the "out smarting you" she's trying to earn her reward. She's working. My 4 yo as a pup caught on very quickly that she could take the ball to the top of a terrace, push it down and chase it. No need for the human...
Hans was not really affectionate until he passed the age of one.
There is still lots of hope
Thank you for the advice. I'll work on building more of a relationship with Fawn and if she's not a snuggle bug, it's not a huge deal. I plan to get her into puppy class soon!
Maybe I'll attempt the outdoor kennel again in a few months when she's a bit older.
|Mister C
As for #2, my female GSD was pretty aloof and only wanted very limited affection. Any more than a pet or two and she would stalk away in a huff. And I had to earn her affections in the first place. Haven't walked her yet? Yeah, you can forget touching her unless you are putting on her leash. After the walk she might permit some loving but not very much. She was a rescue that I adopted at 1 year of age. I worked on this issue for many years and she did become a little more affectionate when she was old.
As for #3, welcome to owning a GSD. They are too smart for our own good. They will study you all day long while hatching their next exploit. All I can say is firm, fair and consistent leadership.
I could teach my girl a behavior and she could do it really well but she was always testing for what she could get away with. Example: playing fetch she was taught to bring me the ball and put it into my hand. 100 times in a row she would do it perfectly. The one single time I slacked off and didn't demand the ball in my hand and now suddenly the rule has completely changed, of course to her advantage. Back to retraining... Dog outsmarted me again.
She's a baby
The outdoor kennel barking is cause she want to be closer to you. Barking to say 'I'm over here, stuck and can't get to you!!! Help me!'
Not all GSD's are huggers and you can use treats/toys to get them more used to be with you.
Your pup is SMART and offering behaviors You able to start official puppy classes yet? All is much easier with those weekly classes!
|Not any help with the others but #2 I had the same issue with my pup but then I would just play with him and hold him and get him use to being touched and what not. Play with his paws, tail, ears, and just pet him while he ate too. After a week or so all he does is wants to snuggle and belly rubbed and touched. So you can try that.
Unsure what I am not understanding...
Hello all,
I'll try to make this all short and sweet in hopes more experienced owners might have some tips for me.
The Culprit: Fawn (female, 16 weeks, my first GSD, adopted at 10 weeks, shares house with older beagle)
#1- The Outdoor Kennel: Fawn is crate trained. She sleeps/enjoys chews/stays in it when we're out without complaint. I wake once at night to take her out, it's rare she fusses in there. I tried the same positive association tactic with the outdoor kennel (larger, covered roof, located in backyard) and she just is not having it. She will howl in it, with or without a treat, if I am in the yard or not, non-stop. Am I expecting too much for her age?
#2- Physical Affection: She really only lets me pet her in the morning. She likes a short belly rub, paw giving and occasional arm hugging (she was bottle raised for a few weeks before being weaned). Any other time she gets mouthy or wiggles away to do her own thing. Should I be attempting to entice her into more affection so that she's accustomed to it? Or should I let her have her space?
#3: GSD is smarter than Me: I have taught Fawn "Off" to get her feet off the couch/my bed/etc as well as "Place" to go lay on her bed or a towel. She will do both these things for treats. However, now when I tell her "Off", she will get down and go lay on a bed. Great! Lately, she will even put her paws on my bed and before I can even tell her "Place", off she goes to lay down herself. I tried ignoring her and not rewarding this little game of hers and she barks like crazy at me and wanders between laying in her bed and jumping up on the bed. What am I doing wrong?
Thank you for any and all help!

text: Instead of being viewed as a major public health problem, injuries have been perceived historically as unavoidable accidents that occur as part of everyday life. Over the last 40 years, however, many multi-faceted injury prevention interventions have been developed, implemented and studied. A large body of epidemiological and medical research has shown that injuries, unlike accidents do not occur by chance. In fact, like disease, the risk of injury follows a predictable pattern, thus making them preventable. IQSIP uses this body of evidence to facilitate the transfer of injury prevention research into emergency nursing practice, with the goal of reducing injury consequences to both patients and staff.

Box score
New York, N.Y. —Mount St. Mary's clinched the fourth and final playoff spot in the Northeast Conference with a 16-7 win at Wagner on Saturday afternoon. Brett Schmidt paced the Mount with three goals and three assists in the win.
Bryant Schmidt and Anthony Golden added three goals each for the Mountaineers (5-8, 2-3 NEC) while Andrew Scalley chipped in a five-point effort (2g, 3a). Bryant Schmidt added an assist for four points on the day with Christian Kellett adding two goals and an assist in the victory.
The Mount scored early and often to take control of the game. Brett Schmidt scored twice while Connor Carey and Kellett added goals as the Mount jumped to a 4-0 lead in the opening five minutes of the game.
Wagner's Mike Hurley scored to stop the run, but Brett Schmidt, Golden and Scalley countered in a three-goal run to give the Mount a commanding 7-1 advantage. Wagner's Nick DePhillips scored with 35 seconds left in the opening quarter to cut the Mount lead to 7-2.
Sam Morrissey scored to open the scoring in the second quarter, but the Mount's Bryant Schmidt, who leads the team with 28 goals this season, scored consecutive markers to give the Mount a 9-3 lead at the half.
Wagner cut the deficit to 9-4 early in the third, but Scalley, Bryant Schmidt and Kellett scored the next three goals to put the Mount on top, 12-4, heading into the fourth quarter.
Golden and Mike Adkins scored back-to-back goals to open the fourth quarter to push the lead to 14-4. The Seahawks (1-13, 1-4 NEC) answered with goals from DePhillips and Morrissey, but Kyle Yates and Golden each scored to put the Mount up, 16-6. William Hedges scored for Wagner to complete the scoring.
Jon Marsalese won 15-of-19 face-offs for the Mount while collecting a team-high eight ground balls. Chris Klaiber made six saves while allowing six goals in 55:41 of playing time.
The Mountaineers outshot Wagner, 50-24, in the game while holding a 31-13 advantage in ground balls.
The Mount will be the fourth seed at this year's Northeast Conference Tournament and will play in the semifinals on Friday. The Mount will face Robert Morris.
The Mount won the inaugural NEC title last year, defeating Quinnipiac, 14-9, in the NEC Championship game.

We were lucky enough to have a friend get us into Club 33 last May. We went to the more formal dinner time. It was me, my husband and almost 2 year old daughter. She's usually very very good in restaurants so we weren't concerned she would act up. She was being great up until right when they put our food on the table. She started crying and just didn't want to sit. (ended up being a tummy ache) A CM noticed we were taking turns walking her around down the hall by the windows and bar area, trying to make her happy. She gave her a tinkerbell light up thing that clips onto the cups (free) as well as gave us cut in line passes for any ride we chose! I wish I remember her name because it was so sweet of her to go out of her way to do that when she didn't have to.
I also won a pair of mouse ears when on TOT back when they were doing the year of a million dreams. That was fun, they stopped us as we were exiting the video area into the main line area to actually get on the ride.

During the past three years, you may have noticed that security and risk professionals have added a new term to their lexicon – business resiliency. Is this just an attempt by vendors to rebrand business continuity (BC) and IT disaster recovery (DR) in much the same way that vendors rebranded information security as cybersecurity to make it seem sexier and to sell more of their existing products? Some of it certainly is rebranding. However, like the shift in the threat landscape from lone hackers to well-funded crime syndicates and state sponsored agents that precipitated the use of the term cybersecurity, a real shift has also taken place in BC/DR.
If you look up the term "resiliency" in the dictionary, it's defined as "an occurrence of rebounding or springing back". Thus, business resiliency refers to the ability of a business to spring back from a disruption to its operations. Historically, BC/DR focused on the ability of the business to recover from a disruption. Recovery implies that there was in fact a disruption, that for some period of time, business operations were unavailable, there was downtime as the business strove to recover. Resiliency, on the other hand, implies that an event may have affected the business' operations, perhaps the business operated in a diminished state for some period of time, but operations were never completely unavailable, the business was never down.
