Dog adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog and you'll have a friend for life! Contact us, or contact another local humane society, animal shelter or SPCA.
Golden Retrievers, regardless of medical needs or age, will receive an evaluation, spay/neutering services, veterinary care, behavioral training if required, and safe passage into a permanent loving home. In addition to providing those services, Adopt a Golden Knoxville is intent on educating and assisting the East Tennessee general public regarding responsible pet ownership, spay/neutering, obedience training, and veterinary/specialists referrals. Adopt A Golden is also dedicated in educating the public of the issues with puppy mills.
AGK has monthly adoption events for folks to meet the dogs. Only approved applicants who have been approved for a certain dog can take that dog home from the event.
Adoption events are located at Agri Feed Pet Supply the last Saturday of the month. Please visit our website for specific dates.
The adoption fees vary by age. Adoption fees help offset the medical costs for our incoming dogs. All dogs are spayed/neutered prior to adoption. All dogs are vaccinated and treated for any infections of which we become aware. Serious medical problems are also treated. Our fees also help with behavioral training and boarding.
Purebred puppies = $600
Mixed puppies = $400
1-4 years = $375
5-8 years = $325
9 years and older = $250
Turkey Dogs = $600
Golden doodles = $700 (no age stipulation)
All dogs 10 years of age or older will be adopted to senior citizens (people 65 years +) at no charge. However a donation would be greatly appreciated.
For our New England adopters, there is an additional transport and health certificate fee. Please check out our Knoxville to New England page for more details.
We know you are excited about the possibility of bringing a new friend into your home. We want to match our orphaned goldens with the best family for him or her. For this reason, our application includes many questions regarding your family members, lifestyle, other pets, and how the dog would spend his or her day. All of our dogs are required to be inside dogs. Adopt A Golden Knoxville believes that Goldens are not happy being left outside and away from their families.
PAWNOTE - Puppies especially need constant care. Therefore, AGK policy requires that all puppies adopted under 6 months of age must have a family member that is stay-at-home, work-at-home or has a flexible work schedule. A puppy must not be left alone for extended periods of time. (The general rule of thumb is one hour per one month of age.) Puppies need constant socialization with humans and other dogs, in order to thrive and grow into happy, healthy adults.
Once we receive your application and application fee, one of our volunteers will contact you for a phone interview and to set up a home visit. All family members must be present for the home visit.
For an adoption application, please click here. Or call 865-940-0688 and provide your name and address and we will send you an application.
Thank you for your interest in adopting one of our special golden orphans!
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! What is the difference between adopting a dog or puppy versus getting dogs for sale or puppies for sale from a dog breeder? When someone is breeding puppies, they are creating new dogs who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog or puppy and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale from a puppy breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs who must find homes. So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog or adopt a puppy at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.

A newly established Center for Physical Activity, Disease Prevention and Aging at the University of Colorado at Boulder will focus on the role of physical activity in health and aging.
The research center is located in the kinesiology department of the College of Arts and Sciences under the direction of Professor Douglas Seals. A faculty member since 1992, Seals is an expert in exercise physiology, aging and cardiovascular disease.
The interdisciplinary center will involve faculty from life sciences fields at CU-Boulder and the CU Health Sciences Center in Denver.
Seals also directs the department's Human Cardiovascular Research Laboratory, where studies often focus on women, a relatively new emphasis since he established his laboratory in Tucson at the University of Arizona in 1985.
To be known as the CPADPA, the new center1s mission will be to study the role of activity in disease prevention and treatment, and to promote successful aging.
The center will have a community service component that will involve risk assessment for cardiovascular disease and prevention and offer counseling on aerobic fitness, nutrition, weight control, addiction, exercise and lifestyle changes.
The kinesiology department's long-standing Wellness Program of fitness evaluations will be part of the new center. Anyone interested in participating can call (303) 492-3407.
Questions the researchers will seek to answer include:
Which physical disease processes and aging disorders are influenced by physical activity?
Does regular activity prevent problems of mental and emotional health? What types of activity are most effective in preventing disease?
Are low-intensity activities such as gardening and easy walking just as effective as vigorous exercise?
How frequently and for what duration does activity need to be performed?
What strategies are best for getting people to be more physically active?

Well, glad you asked! Here's mine, maybe eight to ten years old:
I set it up for squirrel hunting with a Redfield Widefield 4X scope, which turned out to be a little too much, 2.5X would have been better for the woods. But, this scope has been great for the range, so I never swapped it out.
Reliable? Yes. Accurate? Yes. Handsome? Yes.
What more need I say?

P.S. My stock had a rubber butt plate/pad. I had my gunsmith put on a hard rubber one, which I liked better. The rubber tended to hang up on my clothing.

Hey all!
I've just joined up after lurking for a long while and figured - after making a few posts - I should at least hop into the intro section.
I've been Vader costuming for a few years now (my kids love it and join in and now my wife's interested in it too!) and I figure it's time to give Vader a bit of a rest and look into hitting up Boba Fett. I've began contact with Bobamaker already, so we'll see just what comes of that!
I have to say, the work that you guys do here and post up is just amazing. You all should be pretty proud of the talent you have. Hope to be able to share some pics and stories of costuming with you all soon!!

ford PU fender work
2 Attachment(s)
so i need to make this fender look like the other side, which is the shape its supposed to be. Heres a picture i took and drew a red line showing where the fender needs to be. Who ever had this before did the work but pulled the dent out too much making it look like this. Anyway, how can I flatten that bowed part back out to make it look like its supposed to. Also there are a few tears that are effecting the reshaping.
any suggestions? Im trying to do this on a budget with common tools and materials. Let me know if you need more explanation of what Im trying to accomplish.
I can't tell by the pictures but it sounds like you need to shrink the metal. Sometimes it is brutalized too far to get shrunk back. Shrinking is an art and not easy to describe. For smaller amounts you can use heat and a wet rag to quench the metal. for more extreme cases you need to heat a small area the size of a dime to cherry red and then hammer and dolly it back down. Do thos several times in a circular pattern around the circumference of the area to be shrunk.
You can also shrink as you weld by using the same technique. Welding with a torch and small wire, then hammer it after about 1/4" of weld as it is still cherry red. It helps if you have a second set of hands but if done right you can't even tell it's been repaired when you are done. It takes practice.
work the dent first and then shrink. You never want to just shrink something unless you have given your all in straightening it. Is the tear the outer most part? If so, you'll have to weld that by lining up the edges and pushing it in the normal position. If you have shrinkage you can just hammer and dolly it out. I'd take care of the tear, then metal work, then shrink, then repeat. If you have one of those shape gauges you're in business. Can always make a cardboard one too.

Arsène Wenger has two targets for tonight's Champions League game: a clean sheet and at least one goal.
The Arsenal manager will serve a one-match UEFA touchline ban when his team face Udinese in the first leg of their Play-Off and he knows what to expect from the Italian side when he watches from the stands at Emirates Stadium.
"Udinese are an attacking team but they are also solid defensively," Wenger told the Official Matchday Programme.
"They are a creative side who scored many goals last year. You know the target at home is to be solid defensively and to score. That is what we will try to do.
"We want to be in the Champions League, we want to qualify, that's what we want to achieve."

Friends of CAIC Benefit Bash Saturday in Breckenridge
November 8, 2012
You can pray for snow. You can dance for it or simply wish for it, but none of that is guaranteed to help. You're much better off attending the Friends of the Colorado Avalanche Information Center Fifth Annual Benefit Bash in Breckenridge this Saturday.
Friends of the CAIC is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization that supports the avalanche center through various grants, donations and fundraising events. The CAIC serves an important function in Colorado, where snow sports are a part of everyday life, in addition to being vital aspects of community economics and culture. Through its dedicated staff of forecasters and its educational and awareness programs, the CAIC works to reduce the impact of snow avalanches on recreation, tourism and commerce industries throughout the state.
The CAIC receives part of its funding from the Colorado Geological Survey, which comes from the state. The rest of its funding it need to raise itself, in addition to its educational and forecasting duties.
Despite their beauty, Colorado's mountains hold potential dangers to recreationists, particularly in the form of avalanches. About six people die per year in Colorado avalanches (based on a 10-year average), and in the past few years at least eight have died, said Ethan Greene, director of the CAIC. Avalanches cause more casualties on an annual basis than any other natural hazard in Colorado.
The CAIC offers a variety of resources for backcountry recreationists and emphasizes that prevention is an important aspect of reducing casualties. This includes updates on weather and snowpack conditions and classes on what to do in an emergency.
Former Breckenridge residents Aaron Carlson and Joe Vandal are good friends, fellow Minnesotans, and avid backcountry skiers. In 2008, alerted to the financial struggles of the CAIC due to budget cuts, they decided they wanted to help.
"We just started talking," Carlson remembered. "We said, 'why don't we just throw a party and see what happens?'"
Carlson and Vandal reached out into the community, talking to people and raising interest. A friend, Jen Cawley, jumped on board and helped organize the food and catering. The town of Breckenridge contacted the duo, offering a venue and support. The event was a success, with 700 people in attendance and raised $26,000.
"It was wild," Carlson said. "It was totally mind-blowing standing up on stage and watching all these people just pour through the doors."
With its first successful event in the bag, the Friends of the CAIC was on its way.
Throughout the next few years, the organization gained momentum, as well as recognition, in its efforts to raise money in support of the avalanche center.
"The Friends provide an incredible service for us," said Greene. "They help promote avalanche safety and help the staff at the center stay focused on avalanche forecast."
Locals and professionals alike have jumped on the bandwagon for the cause, which hits those of us living in snow communities close to home.
"It's just a great way to kick off the winter season for backcountry riders, skiers, snowboarders, etc.," said Scott Toepfer, an instructor and forecaster with the CAIC, as well as a Summit County local. "It's a lot of work but it's also a lot of fun, but it's also very rewarding, for all of us. Aaron and Joe both really stepped up to the plate."
The benefit this year has an impressive handful of sponsors, ranging from snow sports equipment retailers to breweries to local restaurants. Tickets cost $30 online ahead of time or $35 at the door. The event isn't skier exclusive, nor does it matter if you're a beginner, expert, or anywhere in between. The idea is to have a good time while raising money for a good cause.
Both a silent and a live auction will be going on, with a variety of items to bid on. Door prizes will be handed out, and there will be plenty of beer and food to go around. Musical entertainment comes in the form of a Denver-based band called James and the Devil. Each ticket includes one door prize ticket, two beer tickets, food and more.
Last year, the benefit raised just over $70,000. This year, Carlson wants to reach the $90,000 mark for total funds raised. And they might just do it.
In addition to providing a good time and money to a worthy cause, there's talk also that the benefit bash provides something else – snow.
"The night of the event almost always guarantees a snow storm," Toepfer said. "Every year, so far, we've had a blizzard come in."
Sure enough, the weather forecast for this year looks to be following the pattern. As Toepfer said, "Here comes the bash; here comes winter!"

I have the awkward task of teaching a 'literature' class to final year English majors.
No one, including the university, takes it seriously, and it's really just a forced inconvenience in the students' schedules.
The majority of the students have no interest in practicing their English, much less doing it on a topic as remote from them as literature.
Rather than the soul-destroying hell of lecturing to the back wall for two hours every week (which I think is worse for me than them) I want to get them to do various activities relating to the stories we look at. Can anyone help me with ideas?
I plan to get them to do small pieces of creative writing in class, for about 15 mins each time, and maybe get some groups to prepare and perform a short play based on a story.
The trouble is, as final year students with too much on their minds from 'serious' classes, they resent being asked to do anything in class. On the one hand, let them just sit in silence while you drone on. On the other, they find it boring. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
Help please?

Too little too late?
15/01/2013 , 6:57 PM by Christine Gallagher
The press is abuzz with news that Lance Armstrong, in a recorded television interview with Oprah Winfrey, has confessed to using performance-enhancing drugs. It's unclear exactly what was said in the interview to be aired later this week, but for some any hint of a confession or apology is too little too late.
Richard Glover spoke to author and sports columnist Peter FitzSimons who reckons that anything Lance Armstrong has to say at this point won't come close to redeeming him from being a 'systemic cheat' and ruining the dreams of his honest competitors. We also revisited some other famous public apologies, and you can listen here to the full conversation including Peter FitzSimons' passionate spray:

We agreed since if it all checks out at the dealer or car shop tommorrow I could do 14k which I think is pretty fair. I tried to leave a deposit cuz I don't want it disappearing buthe said he wouldn't do anything with it so long as I'm quick about getting looked at.

FYI I would still have it checked myself to sure
Re: Good price for 04?
Yes I'm going take it myself I just feel better that way. Couple questions if it has power mirrors where is that button what's it look like? Also how can I tell if its 2wd or awd? I also turned off the ac but it seemed to still be on I swear I ave done this on other gm truck before but can't remember how I turned it off and left the fan blowing.

Push the left side to fold the mirrors out push the right side to fold the mirrors in
The ac button disables the compressor(auto climate controls are different from manual climate controls)
02-04 all wheel drive models have the 6.0 v8
Others you will have to look under the front to be sure it has all wheel drive(gm dropped the smaller engine in 05)
I did the same thing with my truck not long after I got it as I didn't trust the carfax report
Re: Good price for 04?
The new one I'm looking at is a 06. It's for sure awd as I found out the letter k in the vin means its awd. Ill have to look for the power folding mirror again I swear I didn't see it. It's also missing the nav disk I just remembered which one would it need and how much? Hopefully tomorrow goes smooth and it checks out ok.

Re: Good price for 04?
If you want the mirrors to fold in all you do it make sure neither mirror is selected to adjust and push the bottom of the adjustment control, square control, towards you and hold it down until mirrors fold in.

Re: Good price for 04?
Who would have known the power side view mirror button was so complicated? My 4 year old was in the driver seat pushing buttons one day and i saw the mirrors fold in. I had to ask him what button he pushed to figure it out!
I got my 04 ESV with 115K miles for $10K, came with Newish 22"s.
The previous owners removed the check engine light LED, navigation shows a white screen, rear brakes are gone, and the dvd player is missing. But these are all things i can take care of myself so im happy with my purchase.
Re: Good price for 04?
I finally figured out the mirrors lol and they fold in just fine. Got it checked out at a gm dealer. Overall really good needs some suspension stuff, rear brakes, ac belt, some rear gasket and at some point a general 100k tune up fluids etc. Guy said it seemed to be taken care of and everything worked. I have to finish paper work tomorrow but I ended up getting it for 13,700+tax and tank of gas. I'm pretty happy with that. Now too find some rims and that front license plate cover thing.

Rear brakes wear quicker then the fronts(I have replaced mine once already)
I replaced the plugs
Need new rear shocks(common issue)
Take care of it and it will serve you well
Re: Good price for 04?
thanks I'm pretty excited never owned an American car before always had Toyota/Lexus so we'll see how she holds up. I would have liked lower miles but at this point a 10-15k mile difference isn't that big a deal people drive around here and most are higher mileage. I think teh price is fair for it being an 06 at least around here trucks hold their value well the 04 I missed out on was 15.9 and sold it a couple days and it was older.
I already researched the parts I need on eBay and they are dirt cheap ill just have to have a local guy install it all. Already got some mods planned out and i can't wait to find some rims I really hate the grampa rims it has lol.

I didn't even notice the LOTR reference when I voted for the shirt... well played, patrickspens, well played.
some people just can't follow directions...
it appears the fools did NOT flee
congrats on a great design. in for 3!
Man even this just makes me more anxious for Skyrim...
This shirt will bring smiles and awesome to the world. Thank you Pat!
I fell in to a burning ring of fire
I went down,down,down
and the flames went higher.
And it burns,burns,burns
the ring of fire

Hello, I'm Johnny Cash
I can't help but love this. :^) Awesome work, Mr S. And congrats!

As the most Interesting Man in the World I endorse this picture, and further more endorse Sir Patrick Pens once more by adding yet another of his amazing shirts to my collection... and I just stopped by to congratulate him on yet another fine shirt.
Keep up the good work Patrick.
priceless, i need this shirt now
If she waits for an Ogre and a Donkey, she'll be happy again.
This shirt makes me feel all warm and crisp on the outside
Am I supposed to feel sorry for a lazy demon that would rather sit there and sulk instead of going out into the world and searching for opponents that are just as worthy as they are flammable? Looks like it could use the exercise, anyways.
Congrats on another amazing print, Patrick. I will hang this in my closet next to "Soulmates" and wear it with geek pride.
If the balrog was holding the fire sword, the whip, or nothing at all, sure. I would have gotten one.
That settles it. Balrog's have wings.
awww, poor little guy-he has no one to play with.
I could never buy this shirt just because I would feel awful every time I saw it.
Catkicker wrote:i think i can even name the ash piles. clockwise from the balrog:
gimli, legolas, merry and pippin(could be the other way around), frodo, sam, aragorn, gandolf and boromir.
and now i know how big a geek i really am ;)
edit: oh, and if you wondered how i figured out the hobbits other than frodo: sam is always with frodo and so he has to be the one to the left of frodo, of the other two there is nothing to say which is which. as for aragon and boromir, boromir uses a broadsword and aragorn during this time has a rangers longsword, he doesnt have narsil yet.
So does that base this shirt off the movies? Because in the books Aragorn had Anduril when they left Rivendell. Or did I just totally trump your geekiness?
This shirt is awesome.
In for one!
May have to get one of these. Great job!
This shirt reminds me of when my dog used to "play" with frogs. He would look so sad when they wouldn't hop anymore.
Ooops....too early?
One more gargleblaster this shirt rocks!
Not Legolas! Elves are supposed to be immortal.
If you are a fan of this shirt, you may also be a fan of this site
It is a site dedicated to the perpetuation of the nostalgia to be enjoyed playing one of the greatest games of all time, Legend Of the Red Dragon.
I encourage you to check it out. Join the players in one of the realms and wear this shirt while slaying wild beasts.
HaHA! I figured this guy was going to nab the top. I'm actually surprised it's not sold out yet! Perhaps later today, buwahaha. Congrats, Patrick!
Still available - bought 2.
So the balrog is now the ring bearer? I'd love to see Gollum go after the ring on this bad boy!
LOVE IT! One for me and one for my husband. Poor Balrog.
That must be one of those new unburnable wooden bows. These guys really came to this challenge prepared.
Something about the tiny little Hobbit ash piles, just makes me smile.
a2j82 wrote:So does that base this shirt off the movies? Because in the books Aragorn had Anduril when they left Rivendell. Or did I just totally trump your geekiness?
Catkicker is referring to the movies.
From wikipedia
"A significant new addition is Aragorn's self-doubt, which causes him to hesitate to claim the kingship of Gondor. This element is not present in the book, where Aragorn intends to claim the throne at an appropriate time. In the book Narsil is reforged immediately when he joins the Fellowship, but this event is held over until The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King in film to symbolically coincide with his acceptance of his title. These elements were added because Peter Jackson believed that each character should be forced to grow or change over the course of the story."
Is there a tiny little tengwar inscription on the wee ring? Figure a Balrog's breath is at least as hot as a Hobbit fireplace.
Love it! Had to buy 2.
Congrats patrickspens! Solid and amazing design! well deserved!
paryb wrote:Is there a tiny little tengwar inscription on the wee ring? Figure a Balrog's breath is at least as hot as a Hobbit fireplace.
...but evidently not as hot as the fires of Mt. Doom.
Logged on late and see the yellow ball a-bouncin'. Congrats on the imminent sellout, patrickspens!

People who are building their suit on the cheap, not just Boba Fett, might need to use some foam board.
Thought I'd throw in my technique for bending it.
Fill your sink with the hottest water your tap can produce and soak your foam board for 5-10 minutes, make sure you mark your lines before the soak, tap dry the board and start bending.
I used scotch tape to keep the desired shape until it dries. I let it set for a few hours, 5-8. And the foam board will hold it's shape with no weak points.
I got the technique from a remote controlled airplane website, and thought I'd share, and this is how I've built my entire suit. Hopefully this will help someone else out with theirs.

By Rob Kelly
Arsène Wenger believes his side showed "something special spirit-wise" in their 1-1 draw at Everton on Wednesday night.
Despite taking the lead at Goodison Park through Theo Walcott, Arsenal had to settle for a point after Marouane Fellaini's fine long-range equaliser.
While Wenger was disappointed not to secure a win, he insists he was pleased with the character his side demonstrated.
"I am satisfied with the total commitment we have shown and the fact we at least came out with a point, which is a fair result," he told Arsenal Player.
"I have some regrets because we were leading, and also because we had some opportunities in the second half to score.
"We missed a little bit of accuracy in our final ball, but overall to come away from here with a point you need something special spirit-wise and we have shown that."
The Gunners have now gone six games without defeat, and Wenger is confident they will soon start to rise up the table.
"We have played 14 games, eight away from home and in some difficult places, so it is now down to us to win our home games and we will come back," he said.
Watch the full interview with the boss on Arsenal Player now.

text: the outcome of my thesis research was that students learn and actually remember new vocabulary in context that is funny or somehow related to them. Encourage your students to watch their favourite movies in English (e.g. tell them to watch 5 minutes, rewind it, watch it again and write down all the words they didn't understand and try to guess their meaning or consult the dictionary). During my college years that was the most interesting way for me to learn. Important is that students will learn spoken language that (let's be honest here) is no that much practised in the English language textbooks. I also launched my own website that involves vocabulary from a favourite TV show. http://englishwithsexandthecity.blogspot.com/

This guy looks like he is performing surgery on a bunny but I think that's entrails he's eating.
Well it looks like they got the banners working. If we could just win a game ! ----------------- Now make the soldiers of TPG golden !
Nice touch with the banners.
Any way to resize the banners? It looks like they only need to be 1/4 as tall.
One of the banners has some images. So I assume the banner height is resized to fit the largest tab.
I like the ~1" size. --------- course, if we could just win one. Then we could have some breaking news !
Aah, gotcha. Thanks!
Looks like it's gonna be a banner year at the PF.................
where's the banner ? we won in OT !

Some on the right claim that the mainstream media is
ideologically biased. This bias justifies ideological reporting on
outlets such as Fox News to "counterbalance" perceived liberal
bias. What emerges from this "balanced," if not fair, approach is a
public sphere in which no claim is taken by viewers as intended to
express truth only bias one way or another. When audiences don't
expect truth, they may not hold candidates responsible for
falsehoods. In the current presidential campaigns, numerous false
assertions have been made with little political cost. In most
philosophical and common sense understandings of communication,
listeners trust speakers to be intending to speak the truth. This
talk will consider how communication in the public sphere functions
when truthfulness and trust have broken down.

Democrats sweep Summit County again
November 6, 2012
Democrats from President Barack Obama to County Commissioner Karn Stiegelmeier are winning decisive victories in Summit County, according to early results.
Local voters had backed Stiegelmeier, the incumbent, for a second term on the Summit Board of County Commissioners by a margin of 58 percent over GOP challenger Kevin Mastin, with 95 percent of Summit precincts reporting as of 9 p.m.
More than 60 percent of local voters cast their ballots for the president and incumbent Congressman Jared Polis, also a Democrat, won Summit County with 58 percent of the vote. Both the presidential and congressional races are still ongoing across the state and the country and it is still too early to call a winner in either one.
Summit County voters also backed Democrat Emily Tracy in her bid for state Senate District 8 against GOP Rep. Randy Baumgardner, but Baumgardner was leading the race overall as of 9 p.m.
Rep. Millie Hamner, a Democrat from Dillon, won Summit County with 57 percent of the vote, and was ahead by a narrow margin over Republican Debra Irvine across the district.
Democrat District Attorney hopeful Bruce Brown also got the nod in Summit County, although final results from the district as a whole are not yet available.

Sabres need complete team effort again
'While the Buffalo Sabres don't have a game-breaker like Jaromir Jagr, Alexander Ovechkin or Ilya Kovalchuk on their roster, teams learned the hard way last year not to take this squad for granted.'
Buffalo Sabres season preview
'Where they'll finish: 5th There's bound to be a bit of a drop-off for the Sabres, but not a big one. They'll drop to third in the Northeast Division and fifth in the Eastern Conference.'
Changing to preparation mode
'The coaching staff's focus has shifted from evaluation to preparation for the Carolina Hurricanes on October 4.'
Dennis bouncing back from knee injury
'"All thoughts were wondering how strong he would be, how ready he could be," Rochester coach Randy Cunneyworth told Gannett News Service. "I wasn't expecting him to perform at this level because of the injury but he looks like a guy who's really battling for a spot."'
Goalie Dennis says knee is '100 percent' now
'The rookie was the Ontario Hockey League's Goaltender of the Year last season and appeared to figure prominently in the future for the Buffalo Sabres organization. But an injury to his left knee during the OHL finals left him somewhat in limbo for the upcoming season.'
Briere Kept On Sidelines
'Co-captain Daniel Briere was held out of practice once again today as he still nursing a hip flexor. Briere has been out since suffering the injury a week ago. Sabres coach Lindy Ruff was confident on Briere getting back up to speed soon. "It seems to be a lot better today," Ruff said, "we wanna make sure though before we stick him in a full practice that he's a hundred percent."'
Sabres reap bonanza of ticket, jersey sales
'Dan DiPofi, the Sabres' chief operating officer, predicts the team will sell more tickets by the Oct. 6 home opener than it distributed all last season when attendance totaled 691,699.'

MacArthur returns Sabres to winning ways
'While the spotlight will always be on Sidney Crosby, especially in Canada, it was Clarke MacArthur and the Buffalo Sabres who stole the spotlight from the player dubbed as the "Next One".'
McKee comes in to anchor Blues' D
'Then, without warning, it was all taken away from McKee. In the second round against Ottawa, McKee had taken a shot off the inside of the left leg — just above the ankle — leaving a quarter-inch cut. The cut was thoroughly cleaned but not stitched, McKee said. And after Game 6 against the Hurricanes, a staph infection began to double the size of the leg. "I woke up at 5 a.m. the next morning and by 7 I couldn't walk," McKee said. "It was really indescribable to sit there, knowing your team is one game from the Stanley Cup Finals."'
Kotalik ready for next step
'Once viewed as offering little more than a blistering one-timer, Kotalik will be asked to kill penalties and, in the waning seconds of a game, desperate opponents. "We may use him some on penalty killing, but with the absence of Mike Grier his important ice time should go up," Ruff said. "We would like to see him, with increased ice time, become a more dangerous goal scorer."'

Transforming/expanding a list
I'm working on some Mathematica code that will help transform a large set of lists drawn from my company's legacy database systems. A typical row of the raw data looks like

The lists are sequences of real numbers, separating some some number of Strings which for convenicence sake we call "NULL" (as opposed to a proper Mathematica Null). The goal is to create a new list where each NULL is replaced by the real number that most recently proceeds it (note that any number of NULLs may occur before or after any real values).

a place for zinesters - writers and readers
Views: 12
What exactly is meant by a comp zine? Only I think Attack!!!! might be one. But I'm not sure...
yeah, a comp zine is a zine with a specific theme, which solicits people to contribute writing/artwork/whatever based around that theme. for example, the "mine" anthologies were about abortion. "the worst" anthology is about death. "evolution of a race riot" was about race & ethnicity. a comp zine is different from an unthemed zine comprised of pieces by several different writers. it sounds like "attack!!!" is more just a zine, which maybe has a loose theme as issues progress, but is not a comp in the traditional sense.

Hello everyone:
well, i will be taking a course mid aug or a little later with a friend however her husband all ready got her a kel-tec which they have not gotten yet, sometime this week, now he is saying he wants her to go to the range before she takes this course, so we were talking about doing that as the will have a kel-tec and a smith and Wesson which is his gun. of cause i would need his help as i never did this before.
i never had in mind about the kel -tec, i have at lesat 5 diffent ones in mind right now, no certain order and do not have my list in front of me, but do remember that the bretta p4 a9mm, the smith and wesson, glock all of the being 9mm as i want it for home defense and the range, a few others in the Ruger p95, soeger cougar 9mm, the glock 17 and s&WW M&P or the SD model
it seems like i did find my list of handguns that i am interested in.
again would love input from ladies that shoot and what you use, and yes i understand that i have to make sure no one trys to tell me what i should get and that i have to shoot the diffrent models to see what works for me.
Lisa, Hamilton NJ

Gear Ratio chart
Go to this web site on the Tri Five site and it lets you select tire size, transmission type different ratios and you can see the RPM at any given speeds etc.
Gear Ratio Calculator
Try this again
h0trod, I was trying to post but my computer kept trying to lock up. Ok, if you've got the 2.97 1st, a 3.42 would likely be a good gear IMHO. 3.42=10.16 in 1st. 3.73=11.08 in first which would be just like my 2.66 w/4.10's.
Now keep in mind what 327NUT said about lugging. If this 450-460hp stroker has a pretty big cam, it ain't gonna be happy in 6th gear at low speeds(its gonna lug the engine). Might not be able to shift to 5th or 6th until you're exceeding the speed limit by alot. The rear gear selection may be a trade off between enough to make the od gears useable at highway speed and not so low as to make first gear like a tractor. Alot of the rear gear selection process also involves how much camshaft is in the engine when it comes to double overdrive transmissions. My big X large camshaft tries to lug the engine at anything under 3000. Food for thought. Nolan
|Along w/a strong, correctly balanced driveshaft with good U-joints, be sure the driveline angles are optimized as best as they can be due to the high driveshaft RPM seen w/that low final drive ratio.
My '97 SS has a PST 3 1/2" custom built shaft with 1350 u-joint setup, T56/2.66 1st, Moser 12 bolt, 33 spline axles,4.10 posi. It has no vibration at all. Haven't ever tryed to top end this one, ain't a safe enough road around here and besides, I don't wanna go to jail.
Maybe some day, Ohio Mile or Nevada Speed Challenge. In the meanwhile just the dragstrip.
Sorry about the hi-jack h0trod. Nolan
Just to clarify; 2.97 is the WIDE ratio. 2.66 is the close ratio.
*to put this in historical perspective; the 2.52 wide ratio M20; and the 2.64 & 2.43 1st gear T10s are all closer ratio compared to todays 'close ratio' gearboxes*
Id say you're on the right track with your build, given the parameters. Make sure if you get an aluminum driveshaft, A. its spin balanced for the RPMs you're planning on, and B. the tube size and wall thickness are sized properly for your application. You may want to consider a bolt in driveshaft loop as a measure of safety and perhaps a set of 1350-series U-joints
Disclaimer: The following comments aren't meant as a reflection of your build, but rather to point out some areas that other builders may not know they need to take into consideration
You're kind of in a bit of a compromise. In reality; you could put 3.08s in the rear and not even use the OD at all, with that 2.97 1st gear (9.14:1 Starting Line Ratio). Being a carbed car, we need to remember that we can't drop the RPMs too low at cruise, as driveability and mileage will suffer. But, the flip side is: you have a TON of first gear and a stump puller of a motor.
Gorgeous 57 Chevy; and Im sure you're going to enjoy the hell out of it.
first gear = 2.97:1
with a 3.75 reargear that im leaning towards,
gives me a 1st gear ratio of 11.13.
second is a 2.1:1
3rd is a 1.46
4th is a 1:1
5th is a .74:1
and the final is .5:1
according to the other magnum with a final drive of .63:1
i have the close ratio
with a billet steel flywheel
i may want to get a taller gear..
what do you guys think?
and yes a aluminum driveshaft is a must. i dropped some serious coin on this car, and im not going to be a cheap a*$ on anything on this car.
i appreciate all of your guys's help!
Is that the factory 4th Gen aluminum D/S?
T56 ratio chart
Borg-Warner T-56 transmission - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nice '57 , Here's a chart for you. As you've already been advised, pay attention to your total first gear ratio and have a custom driveshaft built to deal with the high driveshaft speed.
My setup with a 2.66 first and a 4.10 rear creates a 10.91 total first gear ratio. It's a stump pulling first, but forces you to have to pull 2nd while you're still trying to control the car from the 1st gear launch at the track. It also forces you to have to shift 2nd in the middle of a turn at red lights and stop signs, which I find aggravating. I feel that a 3.73 rear would likely be better (2.66x3.73=9.92), but i'm just living with whats there(ain't broke, don't fix)
Example on the driveshaft, my wifes Z28 has the puny stock drive shaft and you can feel the driveshaft start to vibrate at about 80-85 mph in overdrive with a 3.23 rear. It gets worse at speeds over 100mph. My SS has a custom built 3.5" aluminum driveshaft, no vibration at all, at speeds all the way on the right hand side of the speedometer. Nolan
Make sure you balance your rear gear with the 1st gear as well. Multiply the rear gear times the 1st gear.
For example: lets say you had a 69 Camaro with 4.11s and a Muncie Rockcrusher for a baseline. Take the 4.11:1 rear gear x 2.20:1 first gear = 9.04:1. That's a good benchmark for a performance oriented 'Starting Line Ratio' or 'Total Mechanical Advantage'. Anything from 9-10:1 is useable comfortably on the street. If using an aluminum flywheel, you may way to hedge closer to the 10:1 mark or more.
Do you have the 'close ratio' or wide ratio TR6060 (sold as the "T56 Magnum")?
Close ratio would be the 2.66 1st gear, and the wide is (I think) 2.97. If you have the CLOSE, I would run at LEAST a 3.73; up to say a 4.56. If you have the WIDE, run something like a 3.73. What you don't want is a first gear thats too deep to be practical. Guys who miss these kinds of things end up with a 6speed that becomes a really big 5 speed because they either dont have enough rear gear to make 6th useable often, or a tractor like 1st gear thats useless and they usually start off in 2nd. A lot of this depends on your driving style.
Contact your engine builder or cam manufacturer and find the cruising RPM for your combo; target for that, ESPECIALLY if carbureted.
Footnote: as I mentioned earlier, the 'T56 magnum' is NOT a T56; it is the current generation 6 speed (called the TR6060) produced by Tremec and sold by their North American counterpart as a crate transmission. Write down the Tag Number on the gearbox (something like TUET7744 or TUET11009) as this is the only way to get parts and service for one should you need it. If you don't know what ratio's you have, post the tag number and I'll gladly look it up for you.
|big gear head
|With the .5 overdrive, 28 inch tire and a 4.88 gear you will be at 2050 at 70 MPH. You are going to need a really good drive shaft for this.
Thank you! it most likely wont see much time at that exact RPM.
i just threw that number out there to get an idea.
i want to beable to cruise on the freeway comfortablly.
|Using your data I found 2 ratio's that would be close based at 70 mph....... 3.70 = 1926 rpm, 3.89 = 2025 rpm. Before you buy a gear set make sure your engine will be happy running at 2,000, don't want to lug it.

"In both cases, the subject was not entering our site or otherwise attempting to," Donovan said. "They were in a designated public viewing area. The main thing to know is that they would not have been allowed inside with a weapon."
a well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the People to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.'Nuff said :evil:
Anyways, guns and politicians shouldnt mix.Why cant you have a law that says you cant have a gun within a mile of a presidential public appearance, I don't mean a drive or a meeting, just a public "here I am shoot me" occasion? Then again, y`all have a track record in shooting presidents, perhaps thats a right you feel you need to have?
How many school shootings did we have during the days of the "wild west"? I am far from an expert on the topic, but I think during those days guns were nearly as common as boots. Guns are available, but no where nearly as easily as then. Even so, school shootings occur with alarming frequency. Why?
Quoteah, come on, we have only had a couple of them shot in over 200 years :-D
Has politics not evolved up there to a state where you can trust your government, are you not just paranoid? 1791 was a long time ago. You havent used them against the government to prevent nuclear weapons, invasions of foreign countries, wars, social or economic policy, the loss of civil rights, the increase in taxes, the poor government services, so what then would it take to use these arms in the manner dedicated in the 2nd amendment? What would actually cause the citizens to rise up in arms and do you really think that you wouldnt end up dead at the hands of your own military on orders of the president? Can you shoot em fast enough to prevent any rational chain of command forming?I think the constitution is really just an excuse. Ive always thought the amendment was misread to serve a purpose. depending on where you put your commas and influences. To me it meant a militia made up of the people shall have etc, not individuals. But I figure, having legally armed organised militias in neighbourhoods would be worse than unorganised individuals having guns.
Myth: Gun control in Australia is curbing crimeFact: Crime has been rising since a sweeping ban on private gun ownership. In the first two years after gun-owners were forced to surrender 640,381 personal firearms, government statistics show a dramatic increase in criminal activity. [61] In 2001-2002, homicides were up another 20%. [62]From the inception of firearm confiscation to March 27, 2000, the numbers are:• Gun murders up 19%• Armed robbery up 69%• Home invasions up 21%The sad part is that in the 15 years before national gun confiscation:• Firearm-related homicides dropped nearly 66%• Firearm-related deaths fell 50%Fact: Gun crimes are rising throughout Australia after guns were banned. In Sydney alone, robbery rates with guns rose 160% in 2001, more in the previous year. [63]Fact: a ten year study that concluded Australian firearm confiscation had no effect on crime rates. [64][/i a separate study concluded Australia's 1996 gun control laws "found [no]evidence for an impact of the laws on the pre-existing decline in firearm homicides."

I like this idea. I spend many hours messing around with PS and would love to get some feedback on these .There are some members who are not great fans of digital imagery. Perhaps if there was a specific group for these images they might become more acceptable and be judged and criticised as such, rather than as straight photos.

do some lines express more of one of the three landraces that were used to create bre
From my limited research and correct me when when wrong but von stephanitz purchased Horand; a type of dog called a thuringian shepherd that are smallish, gray sable, wolflike in penotype and on the sharp high strung side. He added bigger and mellower sheep dogs from wurrtenburg to add bone size and balance the temperment. Are these the dogs responsible for the classic red with black saddle
and muzzle? A third landrace from Swambia was added which were used mostly as service dogs, right? Any one familiar withtheir look and temperment?
I have heard working lines have a greater percentage of thuringian blood hence the less exagerated phenotype and sable colors common in these dogs, along with more drive and sharpness.
Do highlines contain a stronger percntage of one of these founding types? How about ASLs? Also are there lines that are nicely balanced among the three?
Someone mentioned these same lines in my thread...Im curious to read the answer!
I think that the major splits with the WGSL and ASL have happened due to backmassing on dogs a lot more recent, but of course those dogs would have more or less of the three main types in their blood, so indirectly I think the answer is yes.
Are these the dogs responsible for the classic red with black saddle
and muzzle? ------------- NO - go to the schutzhund vs protection training thread http://www.germanshepherds.com/forum...ml#post5102394

go to genetic obedience http://www.germanshepherds.com/forum...obedience.html
go to genetics of herding http://www.germanshepherds.com/forum...s-herding.html
I know i posted this question a little while back but i appreciate the answers as well as the thorough and informative pm a member was kind enough to send discussing how the various landraces lent themselves to the final profuct.
Thinking about my origional question, I would guess the post war split in Germany and the different aims and objectives dogs in the west versus the east were bred for accounts for differences between highline and ddr/czech working lines, meanwhile American breeders were breeding for confimation or the pet market and different trends in the dogs look brought the American in a different direction.
The threads on iceburg effect of breeding and genetic obedience and herding were fascinating. I read an interview of a famous German trainer and breeder of herding GSDs, (im sure you guys know who i mean-i belive his last name was 'mayne') who spoke of genetic obedience. My older dog is a husky gsd mix and has plenty of that spitz stubborness. My new addition who is a rescue but seems pb, wow i really see what that means. Willing to please and teachable. Responds to praise as a reward. Will respond even if engaged in highly stimulating behavior- and this is a one year old pup ive had for only a month. Im also learning a thing or two about intensity but thats a different subject for a different thread

Since the other thread where this was mentioned, I took out one of the frames that had a section that wasn't capped. I used uncapping/scratcher fork thing to scrape over the uncapped section purposefully damaging the cells. Today in between rain I checked and the "damaged" section wass repaired and fully capped.This frame had maybe a 5x5cm section that wasn't capped. Doing what I did probably isn't best practice but it was an interesting experiment.
From the Australasian Bee Manual:""As I have already pointed out, during a heavy flow of honey, when it is left in the hive to ripen it is neces-sary to keep adding top boxes to take advantage of the flow, as the honey will be stored faster than it can be ripened.

Box Score
BURLINGTON, Vt. – In a pivotal closing weekend of league play, the University of Hartford men's lacrosse team never trailed at Vermont and put the Catamounts away with a fourth quarter spurt to lock-up its third-straight bid to the America East Championships by way of a 17-11 decision from Virtue Field on Saturday afternoon. Sophomore Kevin O'Shea poured in a game – and career – best seven goals, including three in the deciding quarter, to pace the Hawks to a 3-2 finish in conference play and a 7-6 overall record.
The conference championship held at La Valle Stadium on the campus of Stony Brook will kick off with the semifinal round on Thurs., May 2. Hartford's seeding and opponent is still to be determined.
O'Shea compiled eight points on the outing, the most for a Hawk since Carter Bender tallied eight against Siena last season. Four other players reached the back of the net, with Rory Nunamacher scoring four times and Andrew Cacchio netting a hat trick for the second time in as many outings. Rounding out the scoring for Hartford were Drew Haig and Austin Gorman who had two and one goal, respectively.
Drew Philie paced the Catamounts (4-10, 1-4 AE) with five goals and an assist while Graham Horvath added a trio of scores.
The Hawks and Catamounts found themselves in a tight battle to start, with both teams exchanging blows as Hartford was unable to gain more than a one goal edge through most of the first half.
Following a Masson strike with 7:55 left to play until halftime that tied up the contest at five-all, the Hawks reeled off their first run of the afternoon, creating a two-goal lead at the break using goals from Haig at the 6:21 mark and ending the period with an unassisted score from Nunamacher, his second of that 15 minute stretch.
The momentum continued to swing in favor of Hartford to start the third period as it rattled off three more goals to take a 10-5 advantage over Vermont with 9:43 left to play in that stanza. That span featured another goal from Nunamacher and Haig while O'Shea capped things off, using a feed from Gorman to net his fourth of the game.
The Hawks were unable to blow the game open at that point, however, as the Catamounts clawed back by scoring five of the next six goals to make it a one-point affair at 11-10 early in the fourth. Masson and Philie closed their squad's gap to two with three unanswered goals mid-way through the third before Cacchio stopped the bleeding with his second of the game, re-extending Hartford's advantage to three at 11-8.
After the Catamounts ended the third with a Horvath goal, Philie cut Hartford's deficit to a single goal for the first time since the second period, scoring with 12:20 left on the clock.
From there, the remainder of the game was dominated by the Hawks as they bombarded the Vermont defense with six scores in the final eight minutes, conceding just one Horvath tally during that stretch. Nunamacher provided his team with a two-goal cushion at 12-10 with 7:53 left, but Horvath delivered Vermont's final blow, again cutting the Catamount deficit to one with 6:51 remaining.
The Hawks then used a game-ending five goal rally featuring three from O'Shea and one from both Cacchio and Gorman to put the game out of reach.
Frank Piechota earned the win between the pipes, making saves on eight shots while redshirt sophomore Adam Yee was impressive at the faceoff circle, winning 19-of-30 duels and collecting 13 ground balls. Justin Rosenberg made 13 saves for Vermont, which committed 12 turnovers while taking nine fewer shots than Hartford (44-35).

Hypocrisy (Music Lyrics Edition): Fox Attacks Rapper Appearing At White House
Fox News' supposedly "straight news" show Special Report hyped a freak-out by the right-wing media about First Lady Michelle Obama's invitation of the rapper Common to the White House for a poetry event. Citing a Daily Caller article, Special Report host Bret Baier said that "some on the right are upset that rapper and poet Common will be a guest of the Obamas during a poetry event at the White House." Baier then quoted some lyrics from a spoken-word performance and other comments by Common that have upset people on the right.
Fox contributor Sarah Palin and Fox News' website Fox Nation are also [1] freaking out [2] about the Common invitation.
But this attack is astonishingly hypocritical.
As we pointed out [3] earlier, Fox was singing a much different tune about Common approximately half-a-year ago. Reporter Jason Robinson interviewed [4] the "rap legend" for an October 2010 report for FoxNews.com and told him, "your music is very positive. And you're known as the conscious rapper [5]. How important is that to you, and how important do you think that is to our kids?"
Common responded that it's a "significant role" and that he's "happy to be known as the conscious rapper."
Furthermore, if Fox personalities are so upset about what musicians are saying, when will they call out Ted Nugent, a rock musician and conservative activist with a long history of inflammatory [6] rhetoric [7]? Sean Hannity has referred [8] to Nugent as a "friend and frequent guest on the program." In addition to calling Obama a "piece of shit" and referring to Hillary Clinton as a "worthless bitch," Nugent claims [8] to have told the president "to suck on" his machine gun and Clinton that she "might want to ride one of these into the sunset." He made both comments while holding (fake?) machine guns in both hands.
Despite Nugent's vitriol, Palin welcomed him on her podcast, writing in a tweet [9]: "Ted Nugent will be on the SPAlaska.com podcast an hour before the TLC show airs to talk about hunting."
In addition, if Fox really wants to go down the road of criticizing musicians for select lyrics, there are plenty of other people to criticize. For instance, why has Palin praised musician Kid Rock instead of condemning him?
In her book Going Rogue, Palin expressed her gratitude for the endorsement of Kid Rock and praised him for being "very pro-America" and for having "common sense ideas." Yet Kid Rock has made a living off selling records with offensive [10] lyrics [11]. He also ignited [12] a controversy with the NAACP after displaying a Confederate flag at a 2008 concert.
