The Canisius College synchronized swimming team recorded their second consecutive top finish at an invitational this season, capturing first at the Wheaton College Invitational on Sunday afternoon at the Balfour Natatorium.
The Golden Griffins swept all four routines in their first-place performance with 100 points. Finishing second was host Wheaton (84 points) followed by Boston University (68.5 points) and Smith (14 points).
The Griffs swam to a first-place finish (86.667) in the team routine to remain undefeated in the category this season. The team consisted of seniors Melissa Andrews and Victoria Mintz, juniors Morgan Lebrecht, Jessica Mancini and Svetlana Ponkratova, sophomore Viktoria Mironova, and freshmen Laina Gray and Laura Schmidt.
Ponkratova continues to dominate for the Golden Griffins in the solo routine, securing a first-place finish (85.167) by defeating second-place finisher Kayla Moses of Wheaton by five points (80.167).
For the third straight meet, the duet of Ponkratova and Mintz scored a first-place finish (84.000). Joining the duet in the top-three was the pairing of junior Deanna DeSimone and freshman Kristin Oswald placing third overall (75.667).
In the trio routine, the Golden Griffins swept the top-two spots. The team of Mintz, Mancini, and Mironova occupied first-place with a score of 83.000 followed by the team of Gray, Schmidt, and Lebrecht in second (77.833). The team of Mintz, Mancini, and Mironova have captured first place in all three of the Griffs' meets this season.
The Blue and Gold will take the next two weeks to prepare for the ECAC Championships on Saturday, Mar. 1 at the University of Penn. The Griffs will look to take their 16th consecutive team title at the championship.

Since planet gnome is not updated yet to my new blog, here is my thoughs on the recent "is gnome fun" discussion, copied from my blog:
Are language discussions fun?
I'm not sure how the "is Gnome fun" discussion turned into a language discussion. I would personally perfer using either C# or Java over C to code a new app these days. However, using C is not what makes hacking Gnome less fun than it used to be for me.
What makes Gnome less fun for me is the fact that Gnome is a stable high-quality codebase that I'm spending all my time maintaining. Each little change has to be very careful about not breaking backwards compatibility or introducing bugs and each new features must be very well understood and known to be right (because its very hard to get rid of it later). Most time I spend on gnome is reading bugzilla, fixing bugs in old code, discussing each little change forever, reviewing patches and saying no to feature requests. In essence, I have become a maintainance programmer, not a software developer. Of course, at times I do new development, but it is far more seldom than it used to be, and I almost never have time to do experimental stuff.
One reason using C# or Java would make things fun for me is because it would basically force me to work on a new application from scratch, which means I wouldn't have to care about all these things and just go wild experimenting and hacking. Of course, there isn't much chance for me to do that because even if I did start working on a new app I'd still have all the old code I'd have to maintain.

Sure, some seem pretty silly. But better safe than sorry, right?
1. Rain on Your Wedding Day Means Good Luck
Yes, it will smear your makeup. And totally ruin your updo. But more optimistic old wive's tales say that a rainy wedding day can symbolize fertility, a fresh start, and the last tears a bride will cry—all necessary components of a long, healthy marriage.
2. So Does Finding a Spider in Your Dress
We know, we know—ick! But English superstition says the creepy crawlers are a good omen.
3. Get Carried Over the Threshold
Be it a honeymoon suite, your new home, or the apartment you've shared for years, have your spouse pick you up before you officially enter as a married couple—this ancient tradition supposedly protects from evil spirits "down below."
4. Pick Any Day OTHER Than Saturday to Get Hitched
It goes against everyone's everyone's schedule, but English tradition dictates that this is the unluckiest day of the week for a wedding. At least you'll save a bunch on venue fees.
5. Say Yes to the….Veil
Many modern day brides wrinkle their noses at the idea of being covered up during their walk down the aisle, but Romans believed veils protected the bride from evil spirits who might be jealous of her nuptials. And ain't nobody got time for haters.
6. Pay Attention to Your Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed, and Something Blue
This Victorian tradition supposedly brings luck to the bride by covering all her bases. The "something old" keeps the newlyweds connected to their past, the "something new" represents the new union of their marriage, the "something borrowed" is for the love and support of their community, and the something blue is an Israeli symbol of promise and constancy. Lesser known fact: the rhyme actually ends with "and a sixpence in her shoe," which is supposed to bring fortune to the couple.
7. Avoid Nuns, Priests, and Funeral Processions
Crossing any of the above on your way to the cereremony will supposedly lead to a life of poverty and early death (#rough). But, in the opposite vein, encounter a rainbow, black cat, a policeman, or even a frog and good luck is yours for the taking (#random).
8. Pick a First Dance Song with "Luck" in the Title
OK, we admittedly made this last one one up. But couldn't hurt, right? Especially because "Beginner's Luck" by The Eels is such a rad wedding song.

Why my Apple iPhone 3G is locked?
When you purchase a cell phone it is often offered at a discounted price by the cellular network. In return for this generosity they "lock" your Apple iPhone 3G to their network, so that you can only use their network for making and receiving calls. This means that you cannot use the SIM card of another network, and if you try to do so the phone will display "Phone Restricted", Contact Service Provider, Enter Unlock Code or a similar message. Unlocking the phone removes this lock, allowing you to use your Apple iPhone 3G on any GSM wireless network anywhere in the world.

Removing the network restriction on your Apple iPhone 3G with unlocking codes is the safest and fastest way to unlock a cell phone. There is absolutely no risk of damaging your Apple iPhone 3G or void warranty. You simply enter the unlock codes directly into your Apple iPhone 3G via the Apple iPhone 3Gs keypad to remove the network restriction. We guarantee it to work or your money back.

And i love it!! The proportions are dead on. I'm convinced that it was casted off an original ROTJ helmet at Don Post like the rumor says. It has some small things about it just like the original, the dent seems dead on for example and. The casting on the helmet is very crisp and do not need much work at all before painting it. Just cut out the Visor area, sand away the seam and trim the edges at the bottom. 1 hour work maximum! The resin pieces were also very crisp and totally free from bubbles. It's perfect for making any type of helmet, but i think it's best suitable for either a Pre-Pro or Rotj version. Hats of to you Sarge for a kick-ass bucket! I love it and strongly recommend this to everyone
It's gonna be a awesome Pre-pro!

Student to Clerk for U.S. Court of Appeals
Wayne State University Law School congratulates third-year law student Allyson A. Miller on her upcoming clerkship with Senior Judge Cornelia G. Kennedy of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit.
Miller, a resident of West Bloomfield, MI, will receive her J.D. this May. She will take up her duties for Judge Kennedy after that. "I am really excited to learn from Judge Kennedy's experience," Miller said. "It's especially exciting to be clerking for her since she was the first woman appointed to the federal bench in Michigan."
Clerkships with federal judges are highly sought after, and with relatively few slots available each year, the judges have the advantage of selecting from an elite pool of candidates.
At the Law School, Ms. Miller has been an outstanding scholar. In the last academic year, she was awarded a Gold Key Certificate for academic achievement by maintaining a grade point average of 3.90 and above. Her outstanding work also earned her a Dean's Scholarship. Miller also traveled to The Hague Academy of International Law in the Netherlands to study, courtesy of the Alexander Freeman Fellowship that she was awarded. Additionally, she received the Walter Nussbaum Endowed Award in Ethics, which is presented annually to the student who excels in the Professional Responsibility and the Legal Profession Course. She is also a Senior Note and Comment Editor on The Wayne Law Review.
Professor Gregory H. Fox called Allyson "one of the best students I have taught at Wayne State. She's thoughtful, hard working and exceptionally creative. She has been a stalwart on Wayne's Jessup International Law Moot Court team, which last year had the best record of any Wayne team in recent memory. Her future is very bright."

text: Thankyou for twisting my words. No. Singler does not get much defensive attention. If the ball is not passed out to Singler, a guard, always the shortest player available from the other team, does keep track of him, but gets no where near him. Now, if the ball is passed out to Singler, that guard runs out to Singler, who passes the ball off, rather than recognizing that he should shoot the ball, since he has several inches in height over the guard charging out there. And really, he should be able to get his shot off faster so even if the person charging out there was taller, it would not matter. Anyway, its pretty obvious you are not actually watching the games, or you would already know which of our players get the defensive attention, including on the perimeter. Singler gets very little.

IRS agents raid contractor
PITTSBURGH (AP) — A western Pennsylvania defense contractor with longstanding ties to the late U.S. Rep. John Murtha was raided by agents with the Internal Revenue Service's Defense Criminal Investigative Services division.
The agency raiding Concurrent Technologies Corp. near Johnstown has targeted other defense businesses linked to Murtha, a powerful Democrat who died in February 2010, charging their owners with defrauding the government in kickback schemes.
Tuesday's raid was announced by the U.S. Attorney's Office in Pittsburgh and confirmed by a Concurrent spokeswoman, who told The Associated Press that the company's facilities remained temporarily off limits to most employees. She said the company is "not aware of the nature of the visit" by investigators.
Concurrent has received hundreds of millions dollars' worth of defense contracts, but recently began working with the Mint in Philadelphia on ways to produce cheaper pennies.

John Harrigan: Moving my office to the farm for a great view
JOHN HARRIGAN | October 13. 2013 12:06AM
Both my offices are a mess during the move, but one benefit has been the discovery of numerous "notes to self" that had been buried in one pile or another. To wit, a sampling:
When I go into the grocery store for this or that, I always buy the New Hampshire Union Leader and The New York Times, and read them the next morning. "But by the time you read it, the news is already more than a day-and-a-half outdated," friends and relations say aghast.
Sometimes I even save the papers and a magazine or two for camp, which requires another day for planning, packing, doing last-minute writing and chores and just getting there, which, to put it mildly, is a hike. And then I can enjoy reading the now 2-day-old news on the porch and save the papers for starting the fire on the next trip up.
But in truth, there's nothing bad. The cusp of the season is a fine transition to relish. I'll welcome winter as the embrace of an old friend. The landscape is tired and needs a rest, and so we simply adapt to moving upon it in different ways.

Symbols in expression
Dear all,
Define, say,
r = {Cos[u] Sin[v],Sin[u] Sin[v],Cos[v]}.
How can I write a function, which takes r as an argument and returns a
list {u,v}? If we defined r[u_,v_]:=... it could be achieved fairly
easily using DownValues. But how can I achieve it in this case?
Kind regards,

MP-BGP SOO Community
- Gold, 750 points or more
I wanna ask about what is the actual use from appliy the Soo community on the incoming routes also how its working i mean how its attached and how its travel the path.
The Site of Origin attribute is used mainly to prevent routing loops for multihomed sites i.e. sites with multiple links to the MPLS VPN backbone. All routes learned from the site are then given this attribute so that the PE can uniquely identify which site the route came from. In such cases, all routes learned from that site must be given the same attribute, even if links from that site come in on different PE routers. When routes are learned from the site, they are propagated into BGP together with this attribute. Therefore, when advertising routes to the multihomed site, routes that carry the same So) attribute as the site will not be injected. This helps to prevent routing loops.
The SoO attribute is not used for singly homed sites.
In a nutshell, the So) attribute prevents a multihomed site from learning routes that it itself injected into the VPN.
Hope that helps - pls rate the post if it does.

With the beautiful weather lately it's time to start picnicking and this week's recipes are a twist on some traditional picnic foods.
This week chicken salad will go a little green, coleslaw gets a bit cheesy and we'll take a British twist on hard boiled eggs.
The sandwich for this picnic is avocado chicken salad on a whole wheat hoagie bun. The recipe was not very specific and basically leaves the amounts used to your own taste. For mine, I used a large can of canned chicken to make it easier. Like many others, I'm not a fan of touching raw chicken so, when I can substitute it, the canned chicken works best for me.
I added about three chopped green onions, about three heaping tablespoons of mayonnaise and a few squirts of lime juice. The amount of cilantro depends on how much you like this herb. You don't want the taste of it to overpower the avocado, but if you are a fan of cilantro, add a lot.
To this mixture I added the meat of one avocado and mixed it with a potato masher to make sure the avocado blended well with the chicken.
The recipe suggested serving it with chips but it is tasty on a bun as a classy summer sandwich.
Blue cheese coleslaw makes a great picnic side dish. This is a dish I came up with a few years ago after returning from Gulf Shores with some fresh fish. I wanted to put a twist on coleslaw to serve with the fish and decided to add crumbled blue cheese the cabbage and carrots. The result tasted great and is now my preferred way to make coleslaw.
When cabbage is in season and can come straight from the garden, it's best to chop your own cabbage for the slaw. If not, and especially if you are in a hurry, the pre-shredded bags found in the salad aisle at the grocery work just fine.
No picnic in the South is complete without some sort of hard-boiled or deviled egg. It's a wonder we all haven't gotten gravely ill from this dish sitting out in the sun for hours at picnics.
But since we're trying some twists to the normal, this picnic has Scotch eggs. This recipe idea came by request from a coworker.
They basically are hard-boiled eggs, wrapped in sausage, covered in breadcrumbs then deep fried or baked. Evidently in England this is a popular picnic food. They often are sold in markets across the pond for easy access as a snack or picnic food.
I was more than hesitant about this one. The photo had these lovely, slightly small Scotch eggs. The actual result was rather large and lumpy. After you wrap in sausage and bread crumbs, the result is pretty big.
The most difficult part is getting greasy sausage to cling to a slippery hard-boiled egg. After several tries, I finally got it to mold in a shape similar to the egg so it could be battered, fried and baked.
If you are tired of the same old picnic thing, these are a few options you can try to add something new to the mix.

Avocado Chicken Salad
This recipe, found in a blog, didn't have any measurements. The blogger just asked what was in a recipe she had somewhere and mixed it how she liked it.
In her recipe, she used two cups of chicken, one avocado, several squirts of lime juice, two to three green onions and a lot of cilantro.
The blogger served it with pitas or with chips.
Source: www.becomingbetty.blogspot.com
Blue Cheese Coleslaw
Put the shredded carrots and cabbage in a bowl. Add a 4-ounce package of blue cheese. Mix with coleslaw dressing. The amount depends on if you want thick coleslaw with less dressing or a runnier slaw with more dressing.
Refrigerate and serve.
Scotch Eggs
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat oil in deep-fryer to 375 degrees.
Place whole eggs in saucepan and cover with water. Bring to boil. Cover, remove from heat, and let eggs sit in hot water for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from hot water, cool and peel.
Flatten the sausage and make a patty to surround each egg. After surrounding the egg, very lightly flour the sausage and coat with beaten egg. Roll in bread crumbs to cover evenly.
Deep fry until golden brown or pan fry while making sure each side is well cooked. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
Cut in half and serve over a bed of lettuce and sliced tomatoes for garnish. If mustard is desired it looks beautiful over this.

Well I have made it back from my 5 day road trip mostly unscaved. But picked up a new daily driver/project It's an 81 Dasher Wagon, with a 1z TDI swap! It's not perfect but its in pretty good shape. I'm making this post on my phone at work so can't post pics yet but will soon. She did good on the trip besides developing an electrical issue 130 miles from denver. The headlights just quit working, the high beams work when I hold the switch down.... Also the radio and blower motor don't work unless the lights are working.... So working on that tonight. Also the og 4speed is not conduciveto road trips, guess people in 81didnt need to drive faster then 55 mph lol. So plans are to fix issues first, then 5speed swap asap, then side mount IC, it is non intercooled currently. EGTs stayed pretty low when cruising but would raise fairly fast if I stayed on it. But anyways pics will come this afternoon
The mTDi, really needs an intercooler
The first stop in Ky, only used half a tank
The morning after my overnight stop in Pickneyville Il (some friends live there)
Traffic jam in St Louis (all 4 lanes shutdown from fatality accident) took 1.5hrs to drive 1 mile to next exit
Had to stop at the "Worlds Largest Gift Shop" got to love Mo
Nothing like being passed by a Vw Rialta...
made it to Pittsburg Ks
Breakfast at a Pittsburg stapel Otto's
Got passed by the Rose Hill High's bus....
Worlds largest ball of Twine
Made it home 1500 miles and 5days later (well 2 day stop in Wichita)


text: The Grizzlies played some terrific defense in the deciding 3rd quarter and I've never seen San Antonio look so helpless. They kept turning the ball over and they really were completely lost. Much of it due to the ferocious defense and the relentless attack of Memphis. Gasol-Randolph is a very formidable front court, if not the best in the league. BTW, what is the point of even having Tiago Splitter on the floor? He can't stop anybody on the defensive end, and nobody passes him the ball on the offensive end. Whenever he was on the floor, the Spurs were playing 4-on-5 basketball. I'm cheering for the Hornets tonight. With Kobe hurting, if they win game 5, they have a chance. Wouldn't it be simply amazing if Hornets, Thunder, Memphis and Blazers were the 4 teams left in the West at the end of the week?

Housetraining a 20 month old rescue
I have a 20 month old neutered male rescue that has bonded with me nicely but came with problem behaviors. I am his third owner. He is a handful, very smart and responsive to training, but he tests a lot and I have to really stay on him.
I have owned many dogs for many years, but am a first time GSD owner, and now understand why some dogs should only go to "experienced GSD owners" and the specialized nature of GSD ownership. I feels pretty frustrated at times, but will not give up on this guy.
I took him to basic training and he did pretty well, he knows the basic heel (leash only), sit, down, stay, and does well with these--"off" is a work in progress but he is much better--only a problem when I first come home from work, when he is pretty spastic, but calms down quickly.
I use a prong collar and one of those short leather handles for correcting him as I was taught at the basic training class.
I have had him for 6 months or so. He seemed housetrained when I got him. We had him sleep in a cage at night but he whined and cried for at least an hour, sometimes through out the night. He had no problem going in a cage, seemed used to it, but just very upset being left alone.
One night, he completely destroyed the cage, bent the door and was able to squeeze out. He was a perfect gentleman the remainder of the night--no destruction, and no destruction since.
We decided to let him sleep in our bedroom and he has been fine and content, although he has woken us up at 3, 4 5 in the morning to go outside on occasion. He has stopped waking us up in the middle of the night for the moment, I think because we stopped letting him out so he just goes back to sleep.
The main issue now is he has recently taken to urinating in the house, but during the day, not overnight. Since we have another dog that is pretty sick at the moment, I assumed the accidents were from this other dog, but today I watched in horror as my GSD lifted his leg and did his business right in front of me without a hint of remorse! I rushed him outside of course, and cleaned up the mess with Natures Miracle.
I think I know the answer, that I need to treat him like a puppy with housetraining, take him out more, reward for going outside, etc., but wondered if I can get anyone's thoughts on the cage issue. He basically is a bit of a spoiled brat, whiner, when he doesn't get his way.
Thanks in advance.
is he fixed?
Yes he is neutered.
scold verbally for indoor leg lifting
ahhh ahhh! and rush outside
clean area well with diluted vinegar or a storebought enzyme solution
destroy those urine odors that way and it should help
u might need an indoor wrap which is a male diaper
if his urine is strong he may have a uti cant hurt to check but mainly he is telling u this is his place and he will protect those in it
that is what males are doing when they mark their territory so to speak

text: @Shawn - thanks, it took me a bit to figure out how to update my profile. Turns out you have to log out and back at least once to be able to do it. I think.@Poka-bee - The hive equipment that I bought (frames, foundation, queen excluders, etc) is all unused, so no worries about residue. I would prefer to just use top bars I think, I just don't want to open the hive a week after installing my very first bees and find the comb running perpendicular. I guess I just lack confidence. @Cindi - Thanks for the welcome.Happy New Year to all.

Instant Heart Rate : Heart Rate & Pulse Monitor

Published: 2013-01-23, by Manu Galvez.
It doesn't need any external hardware since it uses the camera lens (and your finger) to gather all data required. It's as easy as it sounds. Once you've installed Instant Heart Rate in your iPhone, you just need to put your finger on the camera lens and hold it to get your heart rate. If you want to share your rate you can do it easily since Instant Heart Rate integrates some social networks and other sharing resources (Gmail, Facebook, Twitter, SMS...).
You can monitor your heart rate history and track your records. Some graphs will help you out to see at a glance any change. Moreover, you may create different profiles (running, chilling, partying...) to set the "normal" heart rate in each situation and to monitor it in order to check if everything is going good. The main flaw is that these both features are paid. So, the lite version just allows you to monitor your heart rate and share it. We are missing free extra-features or, at least, a trial of the paid version.
Instant Heart Rate has been developed by Azumio Inc. a mobile developing startup focused on health apps. It has reached remarkable success thanks to Instant Heart Rate.
We recommend you to download this app if you never tried one of this. The free version is poor: you can only measure and share the results, but not track your history.
This app was featured in one of our videoreviews. Watch it here.

Hey all,
I'm Joe. Obviously AKA xGeneralSureMan. The story with my username is (because I always get asked this) based on William Tecumseh Sherman who served as a General with the Union Army during the American Civil War. You may get the wrong idea about my political affiliation from reading that but please don't - it's just a play on his name, nothing more. The x was added because GeneralSureMan was taken on gmail...
Anyway, I'm 24 years old and I live in the U.S. - more specifically West Virginia. However, I'm moving to North Carolina soon to (hopefully) start a journalism career. I just graduated college with three degrees in English Lit, English Writing, and Journalism. I write poetry, I write music, I write reviews, I play in a band, I'm a beer enthusiast, etc.
I don't really know what else to say, and this post feels a little too formal for me so .
If you'd like to stalk me or anything...

Hey I'm new to the forum and am looking for lightsaber specs for an AutoCADD project I'm doing for school.
All I need are the general demensions for the outside (I'll customize it to taste) but most needed are the internal dimensions and components either for a replica or preferably the in universe components.
I'd look around but the proposal is do tomorrow and i didn't realize how long i might need to sift around to find the information. At least there is enough here that i can go ahead with this project and not have to choose another. Any help you can provide will be welcome thanks

it ws just another freshmen prank at the segregated campus of South Africa's University of the Free State, another silly film to place on the Internet or YouTube about freshmen initiation practices. Two white students, Roelof Malherbe and Schalk van der Mersw, filmed a mock freshmen initiation of five black cleaners who worked for their group. In one scene, a student is whon urinating into a bowl of soup before it is apparently served to the cleaners. Four middle aged women and a man, are shown forced to run a race, play rubgy, and down beer. The film ends with a caption in Afrikaans that reads: "At the end of the day, this is what we really think of integration."
The boys belong to Reitz hostel, a group of bungalows in the verdant campus of the university that is named after a Boer leader. African students are furious and one told reporters: "There is going to be fighting. The blacks are going to get their revenge for those ladies. We've had many race riots here and now there will be more. The Free State is the mother of apartheid."
Reitz residence head, Christo Dippenaar, believes the entire problem of white-black conflict can best be resolved by playing rugby with one another. He emphasized in defense of the white students: "If any harm was done, we as a hostel are sorry. But the guys who made the video are my brothers, so I'm not going to say it was good or bad."
If Mr. Dippenaar is the spokesman for white South Africa, whites are in for trouble. His comments are offensive and racist. In 2007, the university senate passed a motion to integrate hostels with a 70-30 ratio which apparently is beginning to happen in female hostels. Male hostels remain 85% white and 15% black.
It is sad after nearly two decades of attempting to create a multi-racial South Africa, there are still immature students at universities who don't know the difference between fun and degradation of people.

SkiDUCKs gear up for winter season
November 16, 2012
The children at Tahoe Youth & Family Services can't wait for SkiDUCK to start once winter hits, Tahoe Youth mentor coordinator Eli Stevenson said. "These kids are just beaming. A lot of our kids don't have a lot of money, and even though they're locals, they might not have had the chance to participate in Tahoe activities," she said. Clint Lunde founded SkiDUCK — which stands for Disabled and Underprivileged Children and older Kids — because he wanted to share his passion for the outdoors with children who had never strapped into a board or worn a pair of ski boots. The program launched in 2009 with four participating resorts and 120 youth. During the 2011-12 season, more than 1,000 participants skied or snowboarded in 13 resorts nationwide. Lunde hopes to continue that growth, and he plans to work with the Tahoe Truckee School District for the first time this year.SkiDUCK, a grassroots nonprofit run entirely by volunteers, partners with area resorts that provide free lift tickets, rentals, and ski or snowboard lessons. Groups like South Shore-based Tahoe Youth and Family Services will carpool to a mountain and meet up with the program's volunteers. About 95 percent of the participants are never-evers, according to Lunde. For Sarah Olinger, former director of the South Shore SkiDUCK branch, some of the most profound stories are those of the teens from the Stockton-based Operation Peacekeeper group. "The majority of these kids prior to joining SkiDUCK had never seen snow before. The kids, you can see how they realize by the end of the day that life is really worth living. They have all these dreams about returning. We're getting them off the streets for a weekend," Olinger said.Olinger worked primarily at Kirkwood Mountain Resort during her time with the program. Sierra-at-Tahoe Ski Resort might join SkiDUCK this year, but plans haven't been finalized yet, she said. Kirkwood, now under Vail Resorts management, plans to shift away from the inner-city groups, according to Lunde. "That's Vail's policy over all. They want to focus on local kids. It really depends on the folks who are making the decisions," he said. Lunde said that change won't greatly affect SkiDuck though, and that the program is designed to be flexible. Lunde directs SkiDUCK from his home in Redmond, Wash., communicating with volunteers scattered at resorts from the Lake Tahoe Basin to Pennsylvania. It started more then three years ago when Lunde, couch-ridden with a broken ankle, began thinking about what it would be like to never ski again. He'd left a position at Microsoft to take up skiing full time, but the January accident waylaid his ski-bum plans. "It helped me think, 'What if I couldn't ski again?' And I started to think about what I might miss if I couldn't afford to ski or had never learned to," he said. So Lunde worked to establish the nonprofit, and SkiDUCK held its first official event at Squaw Valley in February 2010. "I'm so passionate about the outdoors and skiing, and I wanted to share that with others. I'm much more passionate now about SkiDUCKs than I am about skiing. Our whole model isn't based on a one time experience. It's getting them up there again and again. It gives them the opportunity to think long-term — 'Do I want to live in the mountains?'" he said.

The long story short is a buddy of mine has acquired a $500 rabbit
motor in the rabbit is a JH 8v with 288 TT cam with head work to match and we got a hold of some cheap solex 40mm carbs to replace the trashed CIS.
i know this is one of those your in over your head situations but when in the end neither of us lack mechanical knowledge just don't know anything when it comes to carbs. from searching (and mostly roaring the FAQ) I've came across lots of different information.
Many threads describe solex carbs to be a lot like webers but in other threads i see different information. so I'm going to break my questions into different categories.
the FAQ states that the Carter rotary pump is a good choice but in any builds and threads i find with solex carbs it seems people like to use aftermarket pumps with a regulator set around 10PSI. the carter pump is around 4psi. will the carter pump be a solid choice and the higher pressure in other systems are to over come the lack of volume?
as far as the factory pump goes just bypass it all, leave the intake pump operational, and run a relay to the new pump? (mostly because the factory wiring is pretty hacked on this car)
for a filter can just any type of inline universal filter be used? just cap the return
right now factory distributer is in place, with a MSD blaster coil. will this be enough or should after market ignition be installed? as far as the factory vacuum advance goes I've heard on duel draft setups you cant run vacuum advance.
yea, no clue. there is a local guy who is known for tuning air cooled's. so we will try to see how he can help us out. but id like to have the car ready to go before taking it to some one. but just for the sake of is what are some good links to read up on?
the carbs came off of a running 8v. they are compel with everything. so what are the chances that damage will happen if we do try and fire it and mess with it our selves?
thank you.


text: "Sufficient" for what? The answer for "no more available, better stock a lifetime supply" versus "how much do you keep on hand for weekend range visits before you re-order next month" is gonna vary a lot. Also, what is the purpose and caliber of the firearms? The .30-06 bolt action deer rifle may get a whole box of 20 shot through it every year between pre-hunt sight verification and the actual hunt, a few hundred rounds would be an almost lifetime supply for that gun and the tasks it is normally used for. A belt fed 1919A4 with a crankfire attachment? Real easy to go through a thousand rounds in an afternoon, that's just 4 belts.

Young midfielder Serge Gnabry has signed professional terms with the Club.
The Germany youth international, who turned 17 earlier this month, joined Arsenal as a scholar from VfB Stuttgart last summer and enjoyed an impressive first season in north London.
Pace, strength and an eye for goal saw Gnabry net six times in eight games for the Under-18s, including a sensational debut strike against Crystal Palace. And the attacking midfielder was able to replicate this fine form at reserve level, where he made six appearances and scored twice.
Everyone at Arsenal would like to congratulate Serge on his first professional contract and looks forward to his continued progression with the Club.Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Scott Francis, CTO for BP3 and an IBM Champion speaks to Scott Laningham about business process management, how the transition of Lombardi into IBM has affected their business and the impact mobile devices are having on BPM.
Scott explains BP Mobility: their demo connecting business processes with mobile apps, and how Worklight has simplified deployment and security.
As Scott says, "Mobile changes the way you look at business processes and makes possible interactions that just weren't possible previously."

I remember doing Marvel Zombie Society APA about ten years ago. I kinda miss it. I looked online, but didn't really see a lot about joining an APA. I guess they aren't as popular as they used to be. Would anyone here be interested in starting up an APA of our own?
Views: 149
Oh sure! APA stands for Amateur Press Association. I kinda think of it as a zine swap on steroids. All of the people participating in the APA create an individual zine. So, if you have 20 people subscribed to the APA, each of those people would create a zine. They then send twenty copies of their zine to a Central Mailer (CM) along with a predetermined amount for postage. The CM then collates the copies of each of the zines and sends them back out to the subscribers/participants, along with a list of what zines are included and any business/news for the group (for example: fees, deadline to get your zine in for the next mail, theme or prompt of the next mailing, etc.). So if 20 people are involved, you would get back twenty different zines (including your own). Most of the APAs I've seen are based on a theme, but they don't have to be. Most require your zine to be a minimum of two pages, but that rule is also not written in stone.
I hope this answers your question. If you have any others please ask. If anyone else wants to add something to my "attempt" at a definition, or just tell of about their experience with APAs in the past, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, feel free to do so.
Here's an earlier discussions on APA's I started:
I put this on the forum (technically out of place, sorry Krissy), but I think I announced it on the WMZ libertarian group too.
While I was in the Phoenix APA, a member Dennis Kininger started another called Snicker-Snack. You might be able to contact him below. Phoenix finally folded after 33 years. The final issue is experiencing delays in getting out.
I'd love to see more APA's, but if it's just done as an exercise in nostalgia and there isn't a "critical mass" that has their heart in a topic/subject/focus/passion, then it seems like people are just going through the motions, and it eventually burns out. I'm only interested in certain focuses that interest or are important to me. I'd love to participate in a few more of these. I'm not really interested in any that are mostly "natter".
I think it'd be great if WMZ's Vegan Zinesters did an APA. I'd totally commit to that. APA's can be awesome. Yeah that require a little commitment, but I totally fail to see how, say, 2 pages every 3 months is that hard. Get just 6 to 12 people together and that's a great zine of 12 to 24 pgs. It's the content, not the page count, that matters most.
I'm very much looking forward to DJ's upcoming APA and am committed to being there every issue.
Heath Row tried to revive APA's and compiled a list of all the print-APA's he could find. It's called Bluemoon Special and it's in the external links of Wikipedia's "Amateur Press Association" article. It hasn't been updated since 2009, and I haven't heard from Heath in a while.
If anybody has reservations about being able to keep a commitment to an APA, I'd encourage you to just order a sample copy. There's no obligation in that. Some APA's may not even have minimum activity requirements (minac). You can subscribe just like a regular zine and jump in if the spirit moves you. Minacs these days are probably ridiculously easy. (Two pages a year???)

Barton still not in lineup with sore hand
Barton not in lineup with sore hand
PHOENIX -- Daric Barton, the rookie who's projected as the A's starting first baseman this season, has missed the last four games with soreness on the side of his left hand. Barton, 22, said that it was diagnosed as a repetition injury from taking too many swings with the bat so early in Spring Training. Though he took ground balls with the other first basemen prior to Oakland's game Wednesday against the Padres at Phoenix Municipal Stadium, he was again not in the starting lineup.
"I just talked to him about that," said A's manager Bob Geren, who pulled Barton aside as the rest of the team went through its morning paces. "He kind of wants to get back in there, but we want to make sure it's completely healed before he goes back out there." That could be as early as Thursday, when the A's play the Cubs at home, Geren added, but more likely later in the week. The A's are counting heavily on Barton to blossom this season as part of their youth movement. He's virtually displaced Dan Johnson, who played 97 games at first base last year. Johnson finds himself this spring trying fend off a challenge for his roster spot from veteran Mike Sweeney, who was invited to camp on a Minor League contract. The A's are out of options on Johnson to send him back to the Minors, which means he must be traded or released if the A's determine they want to keep Sweeney. Opening up Johnson's spot on the 40-man roster is one way of getting Sweeney on the team. And the A's could keep Johnson if he were to clear waivers, though that isn't likely. Barton played the 2007 season at Triple-A Sacramento, but was a Sept. 1 callup and started 18 games at first base for the A's, impressing many by batting .347 with nine doubles, four homers and eight RBIs. He said the root of the injury was a swipe tag at first base last summer when he was still playing for the River Cats. "I hurt it last year in a collision at first base and missed a couple of days," Barton said. "Then I hurt it swinging again last week. Hopefully, I'll be back in there again in couple of days. I'm going to rest it a couple of more days and then I'll see what I can do."

It's been a rough week for three-fourths of the projected starting A's infield. First third baseman Eric Chavez had an epidural to relieve inflammation in his surgically repaired back and has been out of action since Friday. Chavez wasn't in camp on Wednesday because his wife was scheduled to have an induced birth for the couple's second child.Barton apparently hurt his hand on Saturday as the A's romped over the Giants, 23-5, in Scottsdale and hasn't played since. Finally, on Monday, shortstop Bobby Crosby was scratched from the lineup against the Angels in Tempe because of the back spasms he suffered while taking grounders during batting practice. He's missed two games. The A's are coming off a season during which the disabled list was utilized 22 times costing players 1,259 games. In addition, with Opening Day against the Red Sox in the Tokyo Dome less than three weeks away, any injury at this point has to be considered a setback. But Geren said he isn't concerned. "Camp has been great," he said. "I can't picture it any better than it's been going."

text: Are there any other returning adult skaters who are having this problem, and if so, were you told you had to retake the tests? The club I was in when I took USFS tests as a kid indicated that there are no test records for tests taken that long ago. She said she would check with USFS main, but never got back to me. It was before people had computers, and organizations have pretty much all disposed of paper records. I am hoping there are other people who faced this problem who were able to get credit for their tests, based on the general fact that it's a wide spread problem not just a few people. If you are one, can you tell me how to go about getting the problem fixed to get credit for the tests?

No cat or dog will be allowed to board at the DSPCA Pet Boarding without all their yearly vaccinations, including kennel cough for dogs, being fully completed and up to date. Vaccinations must be fully completed at least 14 days prior to their arrival to us. We require veterinary proof of vaccinations so please do not forget to bring your veterinary vaccination card with you to avoid refusal.
Vaccinations help to prevent your pet picking up illnesses such as Parvo Virus in dogs and Panleukopenia in cats so it is vital your pet has protection before going into an boarding environment so we have a strict vaccination policy and we have a strict cleaning regime using a high grade disenfectant to protect your pet and our other guests as your pet's health is paramount to us. We will refuse entry to any pet that is not vaccinated correctly or you do not have veterinary proof of vaccinations.
Your vet will give you a vaccination card with the date of the vaccination, what vaccinations were done and what is the date you need to get the next vaccination done. We need to see this vaccination card before your pet will be allowed into boarding. We try our very best to prevent the spread of illness but as your vet should explain to you vaccinations are not 100% effective against diseases.
Can't find your vaccination card or not sure of your dates:
If you can't find your vaccination card please contact your vet for a replacement as we require veterinary proof that your pet has been correctly vaccinated. Your vet will keep records of all vaccinations so please contact them if you are not sure the dates of last vaccination or if your pet has all the correct vaccinations,
Kennel Cough Vaccination for Dogs
The more time your dog spends around other dogs (at the park, vets, grooming shops, boarding kennels, dog parks, on the street, doggy daycare, pet shops, etc), the higher the risk of contracting kennel cough. Kennel Cough is an airbourne virus and unfortunately dogs who are vaccinated can still pick up Kennel Cough as the vaccination does not cover all strains of the virus.
The Kennel Cough vaccination lasts 1 year and it is a live vaccine that is sprayed up the dogs nose. The vaccine starts to work 72 hours after it is administered, howevery there is a 10 day incubation period for kennel cough so the dog can have kennel cough and not show any symptoms up to 10 days after the vaccine is administered but they can be passing on the illness to other dogs during this time. Dogs who are vaccinated can unfortunately also pick up kennel cough and not display any symptoms of kennel cough for 10 days but be contagious to other dogs. The Kennel Cough vaccination has to be completed 14 days before your dogs first day for boarding, there are no exceptions. See the information at the end of this page for more information on Kennel Cough.
If your pets previous standard vaccination was done more than 12 months ago:
Once you complete your first double vaccinations your pet just needs to get a yearly vaccination which your vet will refer to as their booster. Make a note of this date in your calendar so that you don't forget it because if you forget and your pet's vaccinations go out of date you will have to start from scratch which takes 4-5 weeks and requires two vet appointments. Your cat or dog will need to have a full course of vaccinations which requires two sets of injections over a period of 4 weeks for dogs and 5 weeks for cats.
This means you will need to get a vaccination injection done and go back for a second vaccination two weeks later for a dog and go back for the second vaccination for cats three weeks later. Your pet is not fully vaccinated until 2 weeks after the second vaccination injection so please check your vaccination dates before making a booking as we cannot take your pet in our boarding centre until two weeks after the second vaccination date.
If your cat or dog has not been vaccinated before with their standard vaccinations:
If your cat or dogs vaccinations need to be fully completed, ie they have never had a vaccination before they will need to have a full course of vaccinations which requires two sets of injections over a period of 4 weeks for dogs and 5 weeks for cats.
This means you will need to get a vaccination injection done and go back for a second vaccination two weeks later for a dog and go back for the second vaccination for cats three weeks later. Your pet is not fully vaccinated until 2 weeks after the second vaccination injection so please check your vaccination dates before making a booking as we cannot take your pet in our boarding centre until two weeks after the second vaccination date.
Kennel Cough is not required for a Pet Passport:
The kennel cough vaccination is not a requirement if you are getting your dog a pet passport so vets will not automatically give this vaccination to your dog unless you request it specifically. Kennel Cough is a required vaccination to stay with us and it must be given by your vet at least 14 days prior to your dogs stay with us.
Getting a new dog or cat:
If you get a new pet from a breeder, a rescue organisation, etc make sure to ask for their vaccination card. Also make sure that the vaccinations have been done by a qualified, certfied vet as they are null and void if they have been done by anyone that is not a qualified, certfied vet and your new vet will have to start from scratch with the vaccinations.
What is the Kennel Cough vaccination that dogs need?
The Kennel Cough vaccination is an intranasal vaccination and is not part of the yearly booster injection for your dog so please check with your vet if your dog is vaccinated against it before making your booking.
Kennel Cough is a very common and contagious disease mostly contracted by dogs, it is not contagious to humans. Your pet will be constantly hacking and coughing, sometimes spitting up bits of phlegm. Over exertion or excitment can trigger it and make it much worse, so limiting your dogs amount of exercise is recommended while suffering from kennel cough. An immediate vet check up followed by rest and relaxation is the best course of action to take.
Kennel cough in dogs is an airbourne virus and can be compared to the human flu. In most cases Kennel Cough is not serious, and will only last up to a week or two. However, in more serious cases it can last up to several months, and can be extremely uncomfortable for your dog. It's important to have your dog checked out as soon as it begins showing signs of kennel cough as it may be symptoms of another more serious condition your dog is suffering from.
How Your Dog or Pet Can Get It
The more time your dog spends around other dogs (at the park, boarding kennels, vets, grooming shops, dog parks, on the street, doggy daycare, pet shops, etc), the higher the risk of contracting kennel cough. Kennel Cough is an airbourne virus so can spread very easily even if your dog has been vaccinated.
Some dogs will not display any symptoms whatsoever of kennel cough, but can still transmit it to others. This is why the more time your dog spends with other dogs, the higher the risk.
Kennel cough is not usually a serious condition, but can be very irritating for your dog and in some cases can develop into a more serious disease. If your dog or pet is showing any of the following symptoms listed below, it's important to give it the proper care so that it can recover as soon as possible.
Kennel cough symptoms can range from the obvious honking cough, to a lack of exercise, to hacking up foamy liquid. It is important to monitor your dog for strange symptoms, especially if you visit dog parks on a regular basis.
The Cough
Kennel cough can almost sound like a honking noise at times. It's a persistent dry hacking that sounds like your dog is going to vomit. It's common for your dog to cough many times in succession with the final cough looking and sounding like your dog is trying to hack something out. This is very uncomfortable for your pet, and can put a big strain on it's body if it's not treated right away. This is the most apparent kennel cough symptom.
Most dogs will still want to be active regardless of their cough. However, if you notice that the cough gets worse every time they go for a run, it's most likely kennel cough, and is best to limit their exercise until all symptoms of the cough are gone. It may be hard to deny your pets the exercise they look forward to everyday, but rest is is much more important in this situation so they can recover as quickly as possible.
Hacking up Foamy Liquid and Phlegm
Hacking up phlegm is a common symptom of kennel cough, the same way humans do when we have the flu. It is also possible that they may throw up liquid and foam. If they eat their food or drink their water too quickly, they may puke up their dinner and phlegmy water due to an irritated throat. Some dogs won't cough anything up during kennel cough, but are still suffering from a painful and uncomfortable throat (respiratory tract) disease that should be treated right away.
Depression and Sickness
Many dogs will remain happy and active during kennel cough, however depending on the length and severity of the disease it may start to wear your pet down. It's extremely important to monitor your dog closely if they start acting out of the norm. If they begin showing signs of sickness and/or depression for more than a day or two they should be brought to a vet immediately.
Other less obvious kennel cough symptoms might include sneezing, a loss in appetite, redness around the eyes, and/or a runny nose.
Kennel cough does not usually last long, however in serious cases it can last up to a few months. Please note that kennel cough is extremely contagious so it's best not to let your dog near other animals until it has fully recovered.

By Richard Clarke
Arsène Wenger has no fresh injury concerns for the Carling Cup Semi-Final second leg against Ipswich on Tuesday and three players could be back for Huddersfield at the weekend.
Theo Walcott, Samir Nasri, Cesc Fabregas and Johan Djourou have all shaken off the minor 'kicks' they received against Wigan on Saturday. So all four will be available as Arsenal try to overturn that 1-0 deficit from the first leg at Portman Road.
In further good news, Abou Diaby (calf), Sebastien Squillaci (hamstring) and, perhaps, Tomas Rosicky (sickness) may all return for the FA Cup Fourth Round tie this weekend.
"From Saturday, everyone is available," Wenger told Arsenal TV Online on Monday. "Walcott, Nasri, Fabregas and Djourou were small doubts with kicks on ankles and calves etc. But they all had successful tests today. So basically it will be the same squad as Saturday.
"Squillaci should be available for Sunday. Diaby as well. They join in normal training on Thursday.
"Tomas Rosicky is sick. He has a chance to be available for Sunday. He might be little bit short I don't know. He was in bed for one week so we'll have to build him up. But he should be back with the squad on Thursday as well."
TV Online subscribers can see the full interview later on Monday. In it, Wenger talks about:
- rumours linking Arsenal with Jonathan Woodgate
- the tactics Ipswich may employ
- the appointment of Paul Jewell
- the 2006 Carling Cup Semi-Final
- how he has been rotating the side
- the desire for a first trophy since 2005

Beyond that at least try to show some artistic integrity. Bill Watterson was fiercely opposed to the commercialization of his characters which is why he never licensed the IP. It's insulting that so many so called artists spit on his wishes especially since there is absolutely no parody whatsoever in this design. Bad form.

This is my first derby entry, so I'm happy for any feedback people can give me.
Someone suggested that it would be better if it actually said, "There's a map for that" on the shirt. Do others agree, or do you prefer for the art to speak for itself?
Re: Global Warming
At risk of echoing the comment before mine, I just want to say I love your designs Ramyb. While this design won't get a +1 from me, you have two others this week that will. You offer a great variety of designs in almost every derby and I find myself surprised when I look at some designs and see they're from you. Keep up the great work. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I'll be able to get the "GPS Fail" this upcoming weekend.

Funny, I don't see the same amount of complaining about "IM THE MAP"
Ramyb's Oz shirt was rejected, not due to the "map" itself but for the content around it (i.e. the characters). There was another Zelda shirt rejected due to the rules not allowing 'fictional worlds you didn't create'.
Absolutely no animosity towards the artist, I think this is a great design and it made me laugh. I'm just concerned over why the rejectionator is banning multiple shirts for (somewhat) subtle pop culture references, but this design has made it to the fog for 2 days now. Navi is an icon of the Zelda series, and it is obvious that the other character is Link as well. But a yellow brick road, with a girl and a dog facing AWAY from the viewers POV is rejected just because of the setting of the design? Again, I reiterate no disrespect toward this artist, I'm just WTFing at the rejections.
bluejester wrote:When I share my opinion here on why I feel like this should get the axe by the rejectionator, I want all of you to know that even if I get frustrated at your opinions, I remember that there is a living, thinking person on the other end of the converstaion. I don't mean to sound condescending or rude with my opinion here, and humbly apologize if typed words come across with an inflection that I do not intend. To that end, here goes my thoughts on why this design should be rejected:
Here is the break down in "Phantom Tollbooth" type logic:
If you are not somewhere, then surely you must be someplace else. If you are someplace else, what would you call that someplace else?
To that end;
Where does this shirt design imply that the someplace else
Suppose I've never seen this shirt design and I walk up to you and see the shirt. Where do you suppose I will think that the "Dorothy Gale look-a-like and her little dog too" are standing? Not what is that a map of, that's the wrong question. The right question is where are they standing.
Yes, it's easy to fall into the trap of rude snarkiness and say "not Kansas;" however I am asking a genuine question here.
Now, it's true the map is of the good ol' U.S.A. and the rules say "No maps of fictional worlds you didn't create." America is real, and thank God for that because it's where I keep all my stuff.
However, the rules also say in the example "Yes, make up your own continent." Again, where am I suppossed to think that the little girl-- who happens to look like Dorothy--is standing? For the gag to work, I have to infer that she is in OZ. Not something that Ramyb created.
I think what frustrates me about this design not having been rejected is the fact that it seems like it has gotten by because of this part of the rules:
"No, don't give us a map of Narnia or Oz or whatever." Technically, the map displayed is of U.S.A. So no, technically Ramyb didn't make up the map of America. But Dorothy has to be standing in OZ to make the gag work.
In the end, the last rule for this particular derby is a little too muddled. Is it that no implication of previously established fictional worlds are allowed, or is it okay as long as you don't actually have a map of the place?
Which aspect of the final derby rule takes precedent? No fictional worlds, or No Maps of fictional worlds?
The joke is that she ISN'T in Oz- she is in an absolutely ordinary place- The original version of the design even showed on the map where she was, which was in Missouri. I even got rid of the yellow brick road to take out any implication of Oz.
I don't think I would wear it now, with the iPod instead of the paper. Plus I think the orange on the hamster is a little bright. But it's still very cute!
Re: Patcha the Explorer
This one got subbed after all the rejections were handed out and they never reject on the weekends. I'd be shocked if it wasn't rejected first thing Monday.
Oops about the blank message above (which I guess it what I think the shirt should say), I totally agree no text bubble required.
Really awesome shirt otherwise.

So the joke is Dorothy isn't in Oz and she isn't in Kansas. So then, why is she Dorothy?
If the aforementioned is true, your shirt makes zero sense. It does make sense if one is to assume she is Dorothy (shoes, dog, outfit). Assuming that, then the logical assumption is that she's not in Kansas; ergo, she's in Oz. This conclusion comes from the quote in the movie when she's in Oz (!)] saying to herself that she's no longer in Kansas.
Re: Not in Kansas anymore
Perhaps when they say, "No maps of fictional worlds you didn't create." They mean no maps *from* fictional worlds you didn't create.
This should get rejected. Period.

Isn't that the joke? Taking the fantastic and making it mundane? She isn't in Kansas, or OZ, but someplace else, some totally mundane location. The original showed her in MO, which was the point of the joke.
Despite having my own entry in this derby and not liking skiing, I really want this to win.
It reminds me of this t-shirt.
Great design and nice colors.
