There's this I could find: Tom Gores deserves credit for Lawrence Frank hire « PistonPowered
Thanks Walt! In Joe's defense Woody may not have been a bad choice.
Get rid of Tay, CV, Daye and Stuckey. We don't need anything or anybody in return. JUST GO!
I think you should be more worried about Arshavin personally! You guys are in a bit of a hole this year. I don't think Giroud will be able to fill the void left by RVP - he made so many of your players look really good. And the defenders have regressed, particularly Vermaelan (spelling). As a Spur, this doesn't really bother me though
I think the Pistons would go with a 4 man rotation if they did this instead of playing any of the new guys.
If Golden State called up and offered Klay Thompson for Rod Stuckey, Joe would have to think about it.
he's just so dellusional. it's sad. hard.
That is their collective trade value.
Just think what their negative collective value would be if the other team was required to start them all and play them at least 20 mpg.
This has been the accepted decision that came through the grapevine. JD liked Brown. Of course, Gores may have picked up on some historical happenings before he bought the team. Gores has unknown consultants outside the usual Piston channels. Unfortunately, Gores forgot an important aspect on how you handle certain myths. Especially certain local cultural myths. The Lakers forgot also, but they soon made the correct decision on that forgetfulness.
Has anyone noticed the selfish play from JJ as of late? It's well known throughout the NBA that guys on bad NBA teams purposefully pad their stats to become more attractive when it's time for a new contract. I may be imagining all of this but I believe JJ is slipping into that category. This team is absolutely AWFUL and I think guys are simply trying to get "theirs".
Welcome to the forum! Can you show me a particular instance of Chaz "take no _hit!"? Twitter doesn't count!
Looks like chaz grabbed Rodney's arm while yelling "let go of me!" Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2
Ha, you're right! Very sneaky of him.
Who was that he was gonna fight? KG? At least he was gone scrap!
He fought KG on Twitter after the game. That one was Ryan Hollins, I think.
One of the most problematic issues we need to address very soon is this reluctance to shoot the ball. Over and over we see wide open shooters pump-fake their way into a contested WTFallaway as time expires. We gotta have that killer instinct and have the confidence to catch and shoot. Since Rip left, everybody seems to follow Prince's example. Watch carefully and you'll see our guys pump fake even when there's nobody to fake in front of them. It looks like it's become a reflex for them which is troubling.
Jerebko's fake pumps at the 3 point line, to get two steps closer for a very long 2 really irritate me. Not Tay pump fake level irritation, but give it time...

game over.
Solution to rear tire inside edge wear on Ford Focus all models, all years:
The primary reason is too much negative camber for too little weight. This causes the tires to travel on the inside edges rather than on the tread surface. The most typical "solution" offered by Ford and Tire Retailers is to "rotate more frequently", but this just wears 4 edges rather than 2 when alignment is within spec. Ford did not make camber setting adjustable, so you have to modify a suspension component, the upper control arm to hub connection point. Ford will not do this for you.
Purchase an aftermarket "camber bolt" set; <$35. I used the Specialty Products Company part number 81310. I think this is the most common and found at local auto parts retailers, and on the internet. The following instructions are for this bolt, to remove "negative camber"; i.e. make the wheel perpendicular to the ground (or almost).
The kit comes with 2 bolts, each with 2 "washers", and nuts. The bolt is installed in the upper control arm where it joins with the hub, one on each side of the car. The installation is as follows:
1. Set the parking brake. Break the lug nuts free on rear wheels. Block (chock) the front wheels.
2. Jack up the rear of the car, and support with floor jack stands. I placed stands under lower control arm bracket.
3. Remove the rear wheels
4. Remove the bolt from the upper control arm at the hub. (Repeat these steps on the other side of the car)
5. The weld nut is still on the hub frame, and must be removed. This is the only tricky part, so take your time. I used a "Dremel tool" with a cut-off wheel. I had a 90 degree drive on the dremel tool as it improved control, and allowed easier access. Wear safety glasses. The weld nuts have 3 points where they are welded, as seen by imprints on the collar of the nut. The object is to cut only 1 weld free. Cut where the weld nut joins the hub, in effect, sliding the cut-off wheel between the hub frame and the weld nut edge. After making as deep a groove as possible without getting close to the brake line (be careful); use a hacksaw. Remove the blade from the hacksaw and reassemble in place with the blade below the brake line and hacksaw frame above the brake line. Take your time and saw carefully between the weld nut and hub frame. Eliminating 1 weld spot and making a grove is the objective. When you have sawn as much as possible, remove the hacksaw. Take a small cold chisel that fits down into the grove, and give it a whack. The cold chisel acts as a wedge to separate the parts (objective is side-ways pressure). The other 2 weld spots will pop loose. Weld nut gone, "hard part" done.
6. With the dremel tool cut a notch on the top edge of bolt head, aligned with the high-cam lobe on the bolt shaft, so you know where high-cam is after installation (Also, in the future ,to make sure it has'nt moved for some reason).
7. Coat the bolt shaft and cam with anti-seize lubricant. Leaving the "washer" on the bolt, with the big tab pointing out, install the bolt. Make sure the little tab on the washer fits into the hole on the hub frame (this is the adjustment mechanism). The cam on the bolt now sits inside the upper control arm bolt hole.
8. Install the other washer (big tab out, little tab in hub frame bolt hole) and nut. Thread on the nut until the little tabs cannot escape from the hub bolt holes (snug but not tight). Positioning adjustments are ready to be made to reduce negative camber.
9. Rotate the bolt head until the notch you made (high-cam) points to the center of the car (away from you). Keep it in this position while doing the next 2 steps.
10. Rotate both washers' big tabs by tapping with a pin-punch and hammer. Take your time. The little tab has to stay inside the hub frame bolt hole. Be careful of brake line and brake bleeder valve. If the big tabs are toward the center of the car (away from you on the back side of the bolt), the hub frame hole has been extended to its maximum outward position (via the little tab). In effect the control arm has been "lengthened", making the hub more vertical.
11. Tighten the bolt. Hold the bolt head, so cam position does not change, and tighten nut. You're done.
Now would you like to know what the new camber setting is? If yes, here's a "shade-tree mechanic's" way of checking. If done properly I bet it's more accurate than a 4 wheel alignment for $80.
1. Take the car around the block to allow everything to "settle in".
2. Park the car on level ground. (My garage cement floor is perfect)
3. Take a 2-foot carpenter's level (plumb-bob string?) . Stand it on-end next to the wheel. Make sure the bubble, perpendicular to wheel, shows it is absolutely vertical. Holding in vertical position, on the center-line of the wheel, measure the distance to the bottom edge of the wheel; measure the distance to the top edge of the wheel. The wheel edge may have some surface contours so position the car so the same contour on top and bottom align vertically through the center-line of the wheel. There should be some measurable difference. In my case, the top distance measured 1/8" greater than the bottom on each rear wheel. I have 16" wheels, so multiplying each by 8 gave a ratio of 1:128. The question is what degree of negative camber does this represent?
4. I'm terrible at math, so I went to the web… http://www.1728.org/gradient.htm Select "RATIO".
Enter "Input rise" = 1; Input run = 128. Select "Calculate". My car now has a negative camber of .447 degree. For the 2009 Focus the range is 0.0 – 2.0 according to local alignment shop.
If the results are "not enough negative camber", loosen the bolts and tap the washers around until correct degree is achieved. To my knowledge it is not required both rear wheels have exactly the same camber (shops only seem to care that each is within range). If you would like to know how successful this process is, you could perform this same measurement before starting the job; allowing comparison of before and after.
There are many considerations for the desired amount of negative camber including weight typically carried in the rear, aggressiveness of driving, etc. The internet is full of good articles.
If the inside edge of the tire is not only wearing but also "cupping" (also called "feathering"); then worn suspension parts may be the cause. Most common is the shock absorber. My opinion is, with an entry level vehicle, Ford did not spend too much on the rear shocks. These are easily changed to an aftermarket product with more responsive characteristics. But, removing negative camber will always help as the entire tread surface is now in contact with the road, not just the inside edge.
If this method did not provide enough correction, there is a more expensive alternative. Moog offers an adjustable upper control arm replacement; approximately $275 for the pair. These are usually used when the car is "lowered". I have not tried these, as it was not necessary in my case. Frankly, I think maybe this is used to shorten the control arm, not lengthen it, so I'm not sure if this is a solution for a "stock" Focus.
It takes a long time to describe, but I can do the entire job in < 2 hours. The first time it took >4 hours because I was figuring out all the stuff I just described. In my case, visually from the rear, confirms the tires are now vertical, compared to "before" when they looked slanted to the inside… like this / \ (well, not quite THAT bad).
Hmmm…I wonder if I turned the washers so big tabs were in opposite directions (1 in, 1 out), could toe-in be changed? Not that I would, but interesting thought. Seems knowledge just raises more questions.
Good Luck,
Brian Ebels – firstname.lastname@example.com. If you would like a Word Doc send me an email.
There's lots and lots of threads regarding this issue. A quick search would have revealed all the solutions.
Yes, the focus rear end is very tempermental regarding proper rear alignment. The problem is that the Focus was often delivered from the factory with lots of rear camber (albeit within Ford specs). The rear toe range is also pretty broad. The ideal rear settings are no more than -1.5 degrees of rear camber and 0.04 inches of rear toe-in (especially if the car is lowered). Rear camber is not adjustable. You will need to get an aftermarket adjustment devise such as camber bolts or adjustable upper or lower control arms. Camber bolts are the cheapest and work just fine for most cars.
Yes, Ford did have a service campaign years ago. They would replace the upper control arm to reduce negative camber. The problem is that your car had to be outside Ford's recommended spec range (which was already way to broad and is what caused all the problems in the first place) so very few if any people qualified for the replacement control arms.
toe is out of spec.
rear toe should be set to near 0. "with in spec" is still too far our in many cases.

|There are round adjusters for your rear control arms, that your springs are seated on. If your bushings aren't seized on, you should be able to turn them to change the length the arms stick out the side of the vehicle. Also, your springs could be wore out & sagging if they haven't been replaced recently
|first thing to do is get the alignment checked. improper toe will wear the rear tires on the inside in a hurry.
rear tires wearing
i just bought my 00 zx3 a couple weeks ago and the inside on my back tires are wearing like crazy, im not 100% on what the problem is?
i read somewhere that there is a recall on the upper rear control arms but when i try searching it on google it seems like im not getting anywhere. is ford still responsible for this even though its 2012? has to be some kind of recall experation if there is actually a recall.
if i do replace the control arms myself whats it going to do to the alignment of the back wheels? will it be right or is it going to need adjustment?

I wanted to share some recent images of my armour with the community where it all began. As I went to post I realized that my original threads have all fallen off the board. In retrospect I suppose I should have known this.
Being the case, I'd like to reintroduce my project with some images taken just this weekend by Rebel Legion member Alex Ford at Motor City Comic Con 2009. Thanks Alex.
DURGE, May 2009
While I worked to revise and maintain all three of the costumes that I brought to the show, the labour on my DURGE suit was the most intensive. I did win their costume contest, but the real pay-off, persay, was the response I received from my fellow Legion members, artists, and general convention attendees.
Be well,

How not to attribute climate change
In an earlier post, we discussed a review article by Frohlich et al. on solar activity and its relationship with our climate. We thought that paper was quite sound. This September saw a new article in the Geophysical Research Letters with the title «Phenomenological solar signature in 400 years of reconstructed Northern Hemisphere temperature record» by Scafetta & West (henceforth referred to as SW). This article has now been cited by US Senator James Inhofe in a senate hearing that took place on 25 September 2006 . SW find that solar forcing accounts for ~50% of 20C warming, but this conclusion relies on some rather primitive correlations and is sensitive to assumptions (see recent post by Gavin on attribution). We said before that peer review is a necessary but not sufficient condition. So what wrong with it…?
The greatest flaw, I think, lies in how their novel scale-by-scale transfer sensitivity model (they call it "SbS-TCSM") is constructed. Coefficients, that they call transfer functions, are estimated by taking the difference between the mean temperature of the 18th and 17th centuries, and then dividing this by the difference in the averages of the total solar irradiances for the corresponding centuries. Thus:
Z = [ T(18th C.) – T(17th C.) ] / [ I(18th C.) – I(17th C.) ]
Here T(.) is the temperature average for the century while I(.) is the irradiance average. If the two terms, I(18th C.) & I(17th C.), in the denominator have very similar values, then the problem is ill-conditioned: small variations in the input values lead to large changes in the answers; which implies very large
error bounds. In my physics undergraduate course, we learned that one should stay away from analyses based on the difference between two large but almost equal numbers, especially when their accuracy is not exceptional. And using differences of two large and similar figures in a denominator is asking for trouble.
So when SW repeated the exercise for the differences between the 19th and 17th centuries, and for three different estimates of the total solar irradiance, the results gave a wide range of different values for the transfer functions: from 0.20 to 0.57! The problem is really that SW assume that all climatic fluctuations in the 17th to the 19th centuries to solar activity, and hence neglect factors (natural forcings) such as landscape changes (that the North America and Europe underwent large-scale de-forestation), volcanism (see IPCC TAR Fig 6-8), and internal variations due to chaotic dynamics. It is, however, possible to select two intervals over which the average total solar irradiance is the same but not so for the temperature. When the difference in the denominator of their equation is small (the changes in the total solar irradiance are small), then the model blows up because other factors also affect the temperature (i.e. the difference in temperature is not zero). Thus their model is likely to exaggerate the importance the solar activity.

As a Linux guy who loves his adventuring, I'll try and keep this updated as best I can. These instructions were developed for Wine 1.1.29, under Ubuntu Jaunty 9.04, but should work under the newest build/distro. The example is for installing TOMI, but can be adapted to pretty much any downloadable Telltale title. This guide assumes you have set up your computer with the proper ATI/NVIDIA 3D drivers; most distros will ask you if you want them, the answer is hell yes! So let's get cracking!
- Sam and Max Series 1
- Sam and Max Series 2
- SBCG4AP Series 1
- Wallace and Gromit Series 1
- Tales of Monkey Island Series 1
- Sam and Max Series 3
1.) Visit WineHQ and get the latest build for your distro.
You should know by now that Wine is the de-facto way of running native Windows apps under your Linux of choice. What may not be obvious is that the copy bundled with most distros is freaking ancient; why, tens of thousands of fixes and improvements have potentially been committed since then! To put it in perspective, the "stable" one in your distro was sent out around the time colour television was first invented. The Wine guys release a new one literally every fortnight. So the first thing you should do is visit this page and follow the instructions for your distro to fix yourself up with the latest.
2.) Download WineTricks and install the d3dx9 package.
Wine hasn't replicated the Direct3D extension DLLs (e.g. d3dx9_41.dll) yet, and they're needed by some Telltale games. There's a quick way to fix this:
wget http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks
sh winetricks d3dx9
This will download the DirectX 9 installer and rip just the good bits out of it; you'll probably see a EULA or two, click yes. Congrats, you now have all the libraries you need.
SPECIAL STEP FOR SAM AND MAX SERIES 3 OWNERS: Telltale have finally taken their old IE6 based launcher and lashed it to a canoe, set it on fire then left it to slowly drift down a canal. The replacement is a nicer, faster, cross-platformier QT/WebKit deal. However, with WineTricks, you need to install the Visual Studio runtime files before the game will start.
sh winetricks vcrun2005
3.) Run the game installer. When it asks if you want to update DirectX, just say no.
Easy as. Most distros let you double-click the EXE to start Wine; I prefer the terminal.
wine LaunchOfTheScreamingNarwhal_Setup.exe
SPECIAL STEP FOR SAM AND MAX SERIES 3 OWNERS: You're done! Enjoy the game
4a.) Enter your purchased serial number into the box.
Grab it from here and paste it into the box. The launch window will switch to a white page after doing this; that means it's working! With luck, you can quit the launcher now by running in a terminal
wineserver -k
Next time you start the game up, you'll get a "Click here to run the game" link instead of the serial box. Congratulations!
4b.) Download this patching script and launch the demo with it.
Originally you needed this script to make the serial number entry work, but that regression got fixed! If you want to just play the demo, you'll need to crack open a terminal:
cd ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Telltale\ Games/Tales\ of\ Monkey\ Island/Launch\ of\ the\ Screaming\ Narwhal
wget http://rebui.ld.net.au/covox/ttg-patch.py
python ttg-patch.py MonkeyIsland101.exe
If all goes to plan, you should see some text in the launcher window offering a link to play the demo. Congratulations!
- You only have to use ttg-patch.py once to register a serial number, but every time you want to play the demo.
- If you're having trouble getting rid of the Telltale window after quitting the launcher, run "wineserver -k" to kill it.
- If you're having trouble with sound (e.g. skipping, not being there at all) and you use a reasonably new distro, it's probably PulseAudio. It's pretty much always PulseAudio. Do yourself a favour and run "pulseaudio -k" to murder it before starting the game.
- If the game crashes just as it loads into fullscreen mode, you can force it to load in a virtual desktop. This can be done either by running winecfg and changing the global setting, or on the fly by running Wine like the following example:
wine explorer /desktop=Wine,800x600 MonkeyIsland101.exe
Telltale is porting stuff to Mac now. Did you miss the memo?
But if you mean specifically using Wine to play Windows-only titles...
Short version: Seeing as you guys don't mind paying $39.95 for a fancy lending list, you can take my word that investing the same amount in a copy of CrossOver Games would be the bargain of the century.
Long version: Apple's version of X11 is pretty crap and breaks with WineD3D. Apparently some fixes have been made to Xquartz, so I'll try it again soon.
What about Monkey Island's treasure-hunting feature?
Too much black magic.
NEW: I tried running Sam and Max Series 2, but instead of getting the serial number box I got a grey screen saying "Logging you in"! Also, the script complains about a missing noScriptDiv! What gives?
I just tried out S&M 201 yesterday, it appears to be slightly different in that it doesn't have any fallback HTML (like every other Telltale game) for entering the serial number and starting the game. To work around this, grab the latest copy of ttg-patch.py, which can now inject the missing bits of HTML. Unfortunately, you'll need to use it every time to run the game. Believe me, I'm crying as much as you are.
Well, I hope that worked for you guys. If it didn't, post here!

Ashley (Abbie Cornish) is a twentysomething mother still reeling from losing her son to social services when a surprise visit from her truck-driver father presents an opportunity to make some quick cash as a coyote. Having recently lost her job at a big-box store in Austin, she quietly begins smuggling Mexicans over the border in the hope of staying afloat financially. Then, one night, she encounters a young girl whose mother vanished while crossing a river. Determined not to get involved, Ashley tries in vain to keep a distance from the girl, but eventually she finds her conscience stirred by the innocent child's plight. Over the next few days, she joins the frightened girl in an attempt to locate her missing mother. In time, Ashley discovers her untapped maternal instincts and gradually learns to take control of her own fate. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

In the next few days, over 500 students who were close to completing a bachelor's degree at the University of Colorado at Boulder but left for one reason or another will receive letters from the Division of Continuing Education and Professional Studies encouraging them to return to classes.
The effort is part of CU Complete -- a clearinghouse to help former CU students earn degrees -- and a partnership with the Colorado Department of Higher Education, the Western Interstate Commission on Higher Education, or WICHE, and the Lumina Foundation. CU Complete is just one portion of WICHE's five-state "Non-traditional No More" project.
CU Complete scholarships of either $500 (for students enrolled in one to eight credits) or $1,000 (for students enrolled in nine or more credits) are available from a $50,000 fund. CU Complete also offers free academic, financial aid and career advising for adult students who are interested in returning to college to complete their degrees.
"We are excited to be in a partnership that will help us build on our recent successes," said Anne Heinz, dean of the CU-Boulder division of continuing education. "In the past 18 months, the CU Complete program has contacted over 375 students, re-enrolled 23, awarded over $20,000 in scholarship money and helped seven students obtain degrees."
Such assistance is vital, Heinz said, as federal statistics show that the unemployment rate for individuals who have some college but no degree is 8.6 percent, nearly double the 4.6 percent rate of unemployment for individuals who have a bachelor's degree or better. In turn, state projections show that by the year 2018, 67 percent of all jobs in Colorado will require a postsecondary education, ranking Colorado fifth in the nation in postsecondary educational needs.
To be eligible for the scholarships, students must meet several points of eligibility, including:
--Students may be degree-seeking or non-degree seeking students.
--Scholarships may be applied to CU-Boulder credit courses only.
--Students must be enrolled in a course or courses in order to receive an award.
--Students are eligible for the scholarship only once.
--Scholarships are dedicated to students completing their first bachelor's degree.
--Students must have a minimum 2.0 GPA.
--Highest consideration will be given to students who meet the "ready adult" criteria established by WICHE: students at least 25 years of age who have completed a least 60 credit hours.
--Recipients must verify they are legally present in the United States (HB 1023).
"We are helping to fulfill an important need, and doing so in a great strategic partnership with WICHE and the Lumina Foundation," said Heinz. "By coming together in this way, these three key organizations are helping the state's higher education infrastructure serve both individuals and Colorado's economy."

New Orleans work camp
Photos submitted by Susan Edens on 6/28/2006.
A group from Clarksville's Methodist church recently organized a mission trip to help New Orleans residents clean up damage caused by hurricane Katrina. The group, which included several members of the Ozarks staff, worked for two days removing drywall and insulation from one of the flooded homes, preparing the home to be sprayed for mold before it is repaired.
Despite efforts from groups such as this, those who went on the trip said the area is still in desperate need of help, with residents in many areas struggling to rebuild.
Patrick Bain, an Ozarks alum who lives in New Orleans, heard the group was in the area and stopped by to say hello!

For one period, the game was exactly what the visiting Misericordia Cougars wanted it to be. Then it was not. Eastern University scored seven straight goals to start the second period en route to a 22-5 Freedom Conference Championship win. The top-seeded Eagles (15-2) scored all 22 of their goals in the first 48 minutes to run to their second consecutive Freedom title.
Eastern opened the scoring in the 4th minute on Grant Ferguson's first of five on the day off a pass from Chris Farrar. With the goal Ferguson became the first Eastern player to reach fifty goals in a season.
The Cougars (10-7) then were able to slow the pace of the game and grab a 2-1 lead on solo efforts from Peter Paccione and Matt Gonzalez. Misericordia goalie Patrick Johnson had a strong first period with seven saves, but the lead did not last as Farrar found Ferguson again for the game-tying goal with less than a minute to play in the period. The Eagles had an 11-5 edge in first-period shots.
Eastern had the first two shots of the second period before Matt Soldano started the Eastern run of goals with a strong dodge up the right alley. The senior midfielder worked his way all the way to the creaseand freed his right hand with a final push before beating Johnson stick-side high.
Six seconds later, it was 4-2. AJ Ryan won the faceoff cleanly and found Farrar coming to the ball from behind the goal. Farrar cranked home his first of four on the day. Ryan won 20-of-25 faceoffs and finished with 18 groundballs to earn Championship Most Outstanding Player honors. He narrowly edged out Farrar for the honor. Earlier this week, Farrar was named Freedom Conference Player of the Year. He had four goals and six assists and was involved in six of the first eight Eastern goals.
The Eagles won the next faceoff and the Cougars were called for their second of ten penalties. Twenty seconds into the 30 second opportunity, Farrar again found Ferguson for a 5-2 edge. Forty-five secocnds later, Des Decker scored from distance.
The Eagles then picked up an offsides penalty riding back, but the Cougars could not capitalize as Jordan Norris popped a ball free and scooped it up to regain possession. The Eastern man-down unit entered the week ranked near the top of the national rankings, and they did not hurt their numbers at all in either game. Misericordia did not score on any of their four extra-man opportunities this afternoon.
Out of the clear, Farrar found Shawn Farmer on the doorstep for a 7-2 lead. Ryan won the next faceoff and Farrar again found Farmer for an 8-2 edge. Zac Ivy scored four seconds after anohter Misericordia penalty expired to put the Eagles up 9-2.
The Cougars grabbed a little momentum back with a pair of faceoff wins and goals from Nick Santillo and J.R. Lauri. It seemed that the Cougars might grab even more momentum back when Shewn Farmer and Brendan Stouber both wound up in the box with 1 minute penalties. Ryan Mitchell knocked down a pass and Mark Cyron pulled the ground ball free to set up a tremendous two-man down clear. Once in the Misericordia box, the Eagles pulled back to let the first penalty expire, and then Andy Jameson attacked the goal and found Farrar on the crease for a man-down goal and a 10-4 edge.
Eastern had another man-up chance after AJ Ryan won another faceoff and Ivy made it 11-4 with with his second of the day. His back-handed shot from 12 yards out slipped past Johnson's off-stick hip. Trevor Bodnar scored with 4:09 to go in the half but Farrar had an answer with just 70 secconds to play. Farrar holds the Eastern career record for goals, assists and total points. He now has 99 goals and 98 assists.
Even down 12-5, the damage could have been worse as Johnson had 12 saves at the break. The Eagles won 13-of-19 first half faceoffs and out-shot the Cougars 21-4 in the period.
The numbers tilted even more in the third period.
Eastern scored eight times in the third frame. Ferguson scored his final two goals in the the first three minutes of the period. Eric Waibel then scored a man-up goal on a feed from Gillam. Ivy made the lead 16-5 with a round-the-world goal from Farrar. Ivy caught the ball right-handed on the left side of his body just above goal-line extended to the left of the goal. In one motion, the senior attack flung the ball around his body and between Johnson's legs. Ivy scored his fourth three minutes later on a feed from Will Johnson. One minute later, Farrar made it 18-5 after another faceoff win. Ron Johnson provided the service as Farrar picked up his tenth and final point on the day.
Soldano and Jameson scored the final two goals of the period. Eastern won all eight faceoffs in the period and had a 21-3 advantage in shots.
"We were pretty disappointed with the way we played up there," head coach Kevin Wallace said of the game, "so when they made it through against DeSales, I think our guys were looking to put on a better performance."
Eastern scored twice early in the fourth period before Misericordia closed out the scoring with less than two minutes to play.
Aaron Benz made seven saves in goal to pick up his 44th career win. Pat Groschan made two saves in the final nine minutes.
In the eight games against Freedom Confernence Competition this year, the Eagles have outscroed their opposition 138-44. Misericordia had allowed more than 13 goals only one time this year.
Even with the Conference Championship, the Eastern team must wait to hear from the NCAA Selection Committee tomorrow evening. Because the Freedom Conference does not have an AQ to the NCAA Tournament, the Eagles have to hope that their accomplishments are deemed worthy of a Pool B bid to the Tournament.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
Most everyone misunderstands the Learn function of the computer. This is not an unlimited genius capability to define and understand anything bolted underneath the intake manifold. It is a limited function only being able to compare mixture ratio data from the O2 sensor to a map block of originally programmed fueling data and after a period of time seeing these irregularities of being able to make a small change to the block number equating to roughly a 10% change in mixture. It is intended to keep the engine emissions legal for differences of manufacturing tolerance, geographic location, weather changes, and wear. This is a slow process that is lost if the computer is cycled by disconnecting power before the minimum number of observation times have been made to the block number is permantly changed. The block number is not random it is an ID location that tells the computer where to go on the fuel schedule to find a specific on-off time for the injectors based upon sensor input data. If the engine needs a correction that is not included in the block map or is not on the fuel schedule, it obviously can't make that change. If the engine has been modified to a configuration that upsets the sensor data far from what is being expected by the computer, then a new program has to be loaded into the computer for these OBD I units, for the 1996 and up the OBD II jobs they need a pre or post processor added and/or a piggy back ECU employed.
If the crate engine you used is identical to the original L98 but is having EFI problems then it is reasonable to search for a damaged or failed sensor, or a bad connection in the connectors or wiring that was disturbed in order to perform the engine change. A common problem is the thermostat being too cold or the computer's engine temp sensor not functioning. The throttle position sensor adjustment is also a common problem.
|No offense, but your going to need to be somewhat clearer then you've made it as I can't make out half of what your referring to. The more detail you give in a post the more we can help.
Need help on l98 1985 corvette eng tpi ing
have 1885 corvette eng l98 i exchanged because other was bad i used all the stuff off old engine on new crate 350 have some problems withthe tpi inj im running to rich and smog was 40.says exeptable is 20 anyways the qwestion ////////????????? The computer needs reset from the dealer to be learned again and clear codes because of disconnection the tbi sensor should be open what deg shut off 10 deg what any way to make fuel not so rich probley has trouble codes chech engine on all digitall help please pandy randy .

Discussion in 'Off The Beaten Track' started by CDANN1013, Aug 9, 2012.
Yeah, same here!
I predict that the Henry-Aurora dream thing means we'll have a further delay in reuniting the Charmings. The shared dream means that Henry can pass messages on to Emma and Snow, and vice versa. Which is good in terms of keeping up morale on both sides -- but also means that they can string the separation on longer.
This is now turning even more into an epic quest, with the ingredients for fairy dust on one side and the compass and who knows what else on the other ...
Yes, me too! So even tho we now know who Whale is, it still leaves the door open for a future introduction of characters from Oz. Or pretty much any story. Harry Potter next?
Science vs. Magic is a pretty cool thought too ...
Is there not a new episode on tonight -- Sunday the 18th? I've been looking all over the TV channels in my time shift and can't find it.
No, ABC is showing the AMAs so no new episode.
The next new episode will air next weekend on November 25th and be prepared because the OUAT winter break is coming up after the episode on December 2nd (if I remember right) so there's a huge holiday break to drive us crazy coming soon.
BTW-If you were watching the AMAs just a few moments ago, you may have caught Jennifer Morrison and Ginnifer Goodwin presenting the Male R&B award to (a possibly very drunk) Usher. They both looked gorgeous....if they weren't both so darn nice in real life I'd hate them so hard right now, LOL
LOL! Only if they could get Alan Rickman to play Snape, because Snape and Rumple on screen together would be priceless.
Don't they already have dementors?
They had a wraith in the season two premiere and not knowing anything about Harry Potter, I've been told they're pretty similar in their soul sucking abilities.
Don't forget, new episode tonight!
OMG, soooooo much goodness and yet so much of me wanting to throw things at the TV, LOL
Good: Emma & Snow bonding more in Fairytale Land and being so protective of one another (and the butt kicking they gave the zombies! ), David and Regina agreeing that Henry's safety comes first and not letting him go back into the fiery place, Regina's comment, "If there's one thing I know for sure about your grandparents, it's that they always find each other" SO TRUE! , Charming and Snow finally seeing each other again after such a long time (and I've never been as upset as I was when Snow started waking up ), Rumple and Belle having their hamburger date, Granny (OMG, my fave of the non main characters for being such a badass!), Emma's line about the compass, "Hey I climbed up a beanstalk for that, get your own!" , Regina & Rumple working together (and their snarking back and forth), Regina & Henry's interactions (I really do think she loves Henry but her giving up magic for him isn't going to be easy, especially if Cora makes it to Storybrooke which I think we can all agree is going to happen somehow)
Bad (but still good in context that the episode was awesome): Hook took someone's heart???! Since when can non magical fairytale characters do that?! Hated that it made Aurora a spy for Cora now and holy crap, Hook really is working only for himself! I have NO CLUE who's side he's actually on but I love the promo scene of Emma decking him hard. YOU GO GIRL. Charming under the sleeping curse and then seeing Snow but them not being able to touch her or for her to wake him up with true love's kiss. Theory: Emma woke Henry from the curse with a mother's kiss...can Henry wake up Charming with a grandson kiss on his forehead??! I hope so. And CORA...dang, she's quite the evil one, isn't she?! Next week is going to be insane.
I cannot wait for next week's episode but daggone it, I hate having to wait at least several weeks after that for the next new episode!! Winter finales should be outlawed, LOL
Edit: Totally random but on 666 Park Avenue just now, they showed the giant Once Upon a Time billboards in Times Square! Just cracked me up since I saw it as I was finishing this post, LOL
I was telling a friend on Facebook, the official title might have been "Into the Deep," but I shall forever remember it as "The Episode Where Lots of People Made Really Stupid Decisions."
YES! Thank you! Why can't the show follow its own rules??
It might still happen! The show ended tonight before Henry could figure that part out and I can totally see him doing that since he knows how it worked with Emma and his own curse. I have a feeling next week's episode is going to be completely and totally insane and I think I will love every single minute of it even though it will probably make me want to scream at times, LOL
Is it weird that I was actually kind of happy with the Hook twist at the end? As much as I understood and agreed with what Emma did at the end of the giant episode, I don't think he should have. This is a guy who's spent centuries in pursuit of revenge, having him immediately forgive and forget someone potentially screwing that up just because he has the hots for her would have made him a much weaker character IMO. At this point Hook should be on Hook's side, and no one else's.
Plus, it's Captain Hook! He's not supposed to be a good guy! So far he hasn't really seemed very dangerous, so I think they needed to do something to establish him as a legitimate threat, and I think they accomplished that*.
Also, the fact that: a) they've made Colin O'Donoghue a regular and b) they made such a concerted effort to establish him as a potential love interest for Emma makes me think they're planning a redemption arc for him, in which case he would need something to, you know, be redeemed from.
*A sexy threat, but a threat nonetheless.
I'm a little about Hook stealing a heart, too. When did he do it, and how? I feel like I missed something.
I assume he did it while she was knocked out. The how is more interesting because up until now there hadn't been any indication that he could do magic. But given how long he's been around and how vulnerable he was to Rumple's magic the last time it wouldn't be a surprise if he made an effort to learn some over the years.
He stole my heart a couple of weeks ago ....
And with everybody kissing everybody, I'd love to see the Capt get a little lovin'!
LOL, that's exactly what I came here to say!
I continue to be impressed by the writers and how they find new ways to keep things interesting. I knew the netherworld & the sleeping curse(s) would continue to be a major plot point, but didn't see those particular twists coming.
My biggest disappointment about Cora taking Aurora's heart, though, was that Aurora had just started to show some backbone. First agreeing to go to sleep to make contact (and trying to hide her burn from Mulan), then throwing Cora's offer in her face, literally. I would have liked more of that.
And it wasn't quite clear, but is Cora's communication 2-way? We see her talking through Aurora, but can she hear what Aurora hears too? I'm assuming she can, she's not much of a spy otherwise -- and it's not like she has enough clout in the group to be able to persuade them to do anything. Other than pass on Hook's message that is.
The idea that the rest of Team Princess won't be able to detect her heartlessness seems a bit suspect to me though. And will she still be able to travel to the netherworld in her sleep without her heart?
Bring on next week!
Given Emma's ability to tell when someone is lying, I wonder if she will pick up on it.
I agree with this - just when I was starting to like her, this happens.
I find that sometimes, particularly with stories that take place in fantasy settings, being a strong female character seems to be equated with being able to fight, so I like that they made an effort to show that she doesn't have to be able to wield a sword to be a badass.
Eh, Emma's lie-detector seems to come and go as the plot demands* so I wouldn't count on it.
*Personally, I don't think she has any particular aptitude for it at all - it's just a line she uses to intimidate someone she already knows (or strongly suspects) is lying.
If Captain Hook wants to enact revenge on Rumple, he'd better figure out how to perform the tricks Rumple knows how to do, and that includes pulling out hearts. Hook has had plenty of time to figure it out via a different channel.
Finally had a chance to watch this week's episode. Best of the season so far, imo. Next week looks epic. Cannot wait.
This coming episode is titled " Queen of Hearts"
Super exciting! I've been wondering when we'd go back to Wonderland!
Since they're in the thick of the Charming family-Hook-Cora drama, I'm wondering if it's more a play on words, having to do with Regina and her drawers full of hearts.
From the promos I've seen, I think we're actually going back to Wonderland but you could be right about the drawers full of hearts coming into play somehow. No matter what it should be pretty epic!
PLEASE let Emma & Snow get home on Sunday night!! I am way tired of the Charming family being apart.
I'm thinking not. Yes, Emma woke Henry, but Henry is a child. His only "true loves" are with family. If it were Emma under the curse, I'd say Henry would be able to wake her. But although he no doubt feels love for his "Gramps," Charming's one and only true love is Snow. It pretty much has to be Snow's kiss to wake him, I'd be willing to be money on that.
Bumping this up for the new episode this evening and FOR THE LOVE OF EVERYTHING, please let Snow & Emma get home tonight!!!!
for a new episode and WORD for what you wished for! wheeee!
Oh my Lord......Best episode ever!!!
So. Much. AWESOME!!!!!!

Right for whom? Have you shot either of them? If not, see whether your local ranges have one for rent one. Don't put too much faith in what other people have to say, unless they're going to pay for it for you. Regardless of which brand (of anything) you inquire about, there will be mindless bashers who parrot what they think the "cool" people say. (Buy Chevy, Ford sucks,etc)
As long as you stay away from the California white metal guns, you'll do fine.
Find a gun that fits your hand, meets your requirements, and is of a caliber that you can shoot accurately. If push comes to shove, buy some snap caps in the caliber you want, and ask your dealer if you may try the trigger(s).
The Glock lovers will say "27". The S&W lovers will say "M&P40c".
Go to other forums and lurk around to see what the people have to say about the guns they like. There are gun specific forums for both S&W and Glock. Go see what the shortcomings are from those owners. I have several guns under consideration for a CCW piece and have been lurking at the Forums for those makes. They all have strong, and weak points.
O.K. Im off the soap box. Get to work.

A Rock-N-Roll run through Cleveland
(Downtown) - Cleveland's first Rock-N-Roll Half Marathon & Mini Marathon was conducted without a hitch in the business district.
Runners started the race at 8:00am outside the Rock-N-Roll Hall of Fame to the beat of a variety of tunes. The finish line was in front of the Horseshoe Casino, where live bands were playing and a concert was held.
Finishers began crossing the line at 10am. Event manager Natalie Miyake says the goal was to make running fun for the casual athlete, with lots of music, cheerleaders and a festive atmosphere.
About 8,000 runners and spectators came downtown to enjoy the action and to pump and estimated $10-million into Cleveland's economy.
Twenty-eight-year-old Aaron Apathy of Westlake, won the men's division at 1:12:44, and 31-year-old Kelly Green of Burton, won the women's division with a time of 1:23:19.

Spotlight show • In his holiday show, Chris Isaak one of the truly nicest guys in show business brings crazy costumes and his wise-cracking humor while performing his signature mix of blues and rock 'n' roll. In an interview, Isaak said memories of the holidays from his Stockon, Calif., upbringing help to inspire these holiday shows. "I have one of those rare idyllic lives, every bit of it," Isaak said of his loving family. Although he still can't believe he gets to tour the world doing what he loves, he fondly remembers being a blessed youth. "I look back and long for that." Isaak recorded a Christmas album in 2004, and because he loves the holidays so much, he spent an unheard-of six months perfecting it. He even wrote new songs for that album, including "Washington Square," "Hey Santa!" and "Gotta Be Good." And he said that when he is in Salt Lake, he will be doing some Christmas shopping at some of his favorite bicycle shops and bookstores in the country.

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. - The Tar Heels closed out their 2013 home slate with a 7-3 victory over UNC Greensboro Wednesday, improving to 37-13 (12-6) on the season.
Led by Constance Orr's three RBIs and Lori Spingola's strong appearance in the circle, Carolina ends the regular season with a 23-2 mark at Anderson Stadium after Wednesday's win.
Kristen Brown got things started for the Tar Heels in the opening frame with a single up the middle, advancing to second on a ground out. Haleigh Dickey drew a walk, and Amber Parrish was hit by a pitch to load the bases for Jenna Kelly, who was also hit by a pitch to force a run for Carolina's first run.
In the second, Erin Satterfield singled through the left side and advanced to second on a wild pitch. Elisha Elliott singled to shortstop, advancing Satterfield to third before Brown drew a walk to load the bases. A single to left field by Aquilla Mateen drove in Satterfield, and then Dickey followed with a sac fly to score Elliott. Parrish drew a walk, and a single through the right side by Orr drove in Mateen and Brown. Kelly was hit by a pitch to load the bases once again, and Covert scored on a passed ball while running for Parrish to give Carolina the 6-0 lead.
The Spartans ended the shutout in the fourth, as Eileen Horsmon drew a walk and advanced to second on a bunt single by Tatiana Alcala. A single by Danielle Vega to right field loaded the bases for Nicole Thomas, who drew a walk and pushed a run across the plate to make it 6-1.
Lindsay Thomas got things going for the Spartans in the top of the fifth with a single up the middle. A double to right field by Katelyn Bedwell advanced Thomas to third before Horsmon singled up the middle to score Thomas. Vega then singled to left center to drive Bedwell for the 6-3 score.
The Tar Heels added one last run in the bottom of the sixth when Orr hit her 14th homer of the season, a solo shot out over right center.
Spingola fanned seven while giving up eight hits in six innings for the win. Ashley Bone spent one inning in the circle, surrendering four hits and two walks while striking out one.
UNC completes the 2013 regular season at Maryland this weekend with a three-game series Saturday and Sunday. The Tar Heels have a weekend off before heading to the ACC tournament, which will be held May 9-11 in Tallahassee, Fla.

text: Well I was thinking today of some guys we could possibly trade for and ill list some guys I think that could be possible and would be nice pickups. Tracy McGrady - Here me out on this one first. Okay yes he has been injured quite a bit but he has a load of talent still and is still at superstar status and he only has one year on his contract so if he doesnt work out you will have cap room for next season...it really can be a win-win situation. Either he stays healthy and plays good and helps us or he gets injured again and we let him walk and we have cap room again next season. Tyson Chandler - Its no secret NO wants to dump this guy. He isnt a great low post player on offense but he is a rebounding machine and a very good shot blocker. Would be a nice defensive presence to have. Amare Stoudamire - PHX is in rebuild mode now and have been rumored to be trading Amare. HE would be a HUGE pickup. Seems like PHX want to get younger and not sure what all we could offer but maybe a package with Rip and Tay plus a 1st could do the deal. Chris Bosh - I feel he will get traded soon might not be this offseason but atleast by the trade deadline. Bosh is set to become a FA next season and he has expressed no interest in returning so it would be a smart move to dump Bosh and pickup something instead of letting him walk...to me keeping Amir and using him in a trade for Bosh or Stoudamire would have made better since than just dumping him. David Lee - Although he is a RFA thier is a good chance he becomes part of a sign and trade deal. Would be relatively cheaper than Boozer and put up similar numbers to Boozer last season. Chris Kaman - Sounds like LAC will be dumping a big guy and it seems like Kaman is the guy they may trade. They have a log jam in the front court right now. Would be a decent C to pickup and would start for us. If I forgot anyone feel free to list them and we can discuss him too.

Sorry if this has already been mentioned :(
but i went to the radio shack nearest me, and the guys there were freaking idiots, and apparently know nothing about electronics, or customer service...

this is the light - 120VAC Neon Lamp Assembly (2-Pack) - RadioShack.com
so i tried hooking it up to a 9 volt, but no go...
does any one here know what i have to use? two AAA's? two AA's? i'm at a complete loss...the lights say that the operating voltage is 120 VAC, and that the firing voltage is 70-80 VAC, and i have NO idea what that means.
any help would be awesomely appreciated :)

By Sue Coyle
A patient - an elderly man - is stereotypically traditional in terms of his "fear of technology."
He's more comfortable with pen and paper than using a computer, particularly when it comes to tracking his doctor's appointments, medical history and protecting his privacy. The thought of having his patient records released on the Internet, in secure fashion or not, is essentially horrifying.
To think that a printer could process his current laundry list of medications without omitting one in error is blasphemous at best. He'd rather everything related to his healthcare remain as it has been for years.
Until he takes a moment to realize how much more convenient and safe his life can be once his healthcare provider thoroughly engages him in his electronic health record (EHR).
"I have this 75-year-old patient who was very frustrated that I was putting things on the computer," explained Laura Nevill, RN-C, APRN, senior director for nursing informatics at Cambridge Health Alliance in Massachusetts. "And then the light dawned on him that he couldn't wait for his specialists to get online, too."
ADVANCE for Nurses
IT experts have seen how quickly use of EHRs has accelerated.
Ensuring Quality Care
EHRs are one of the more significant waves of technology to impact the medical world over the past several years.
Having such data as, diagnoses, prescriptions and appointment schedule bundled at one's fingertips for the patient and provider's perusal continues to prove increasingly invaluable, particularly for those patients living with chronic health conditions such as diabetes, cancer or HIV/AIDS..
In regards to her patients with diabetes, Nevill said the role of EHRs is most evident in tracking the effectiveness or ineffectiveness of someone's disease management.
"It will pull up for this patient his or her weight, blood pressure, hemoglobin A1C and other significant labs," she explained. "I can immediately get a feel for where we are - what tests I need to run, how well the diabetes is being managed and what I need to help them focus on."
In the home health setting, nurses are also utilizing EHRs by taking photos of ulcerations on patients' skin so physicians can review them without the patient having to travel into the office.
For those with long-term cardiac issues, for example, internal pacemakers can also be tracked remotely.
Other disease processes that are better managed through the use of EHRs include COPD and neurological disorders, especially in regards to possible medication changes and side effects that can occur.
When hospital admissions are unavoidable and more healthcare providers become involved with a case,
EHRs can help simplify that process, said Karen Fuller, RN, ES, PMP, a critical care nurse with 35 years of experience in healthcare and information technology (IT) who's on staff with CSC Health Services, an IT and professional services provider.
"In the moment, data doesn't just go to the practitioner at hand or into the online database for physicians and nurses to access later - other people of the healthcare team receive real-time info and alerts as well," Fuller said.
"There are alerts and reminders that can be targeted to care providers and alerts that can be sent to the pharmacist. [The EHR] provides everyone involved availability of critical information at the point of care, whether its entry, dispensing or administration."
Use of EHRs is also alleviating readmissions in some cases.
"Now, when patients follow up [after hospital discharge], EHRs create a continuum of care," Fuller said.
Providing Self-Care
In order for that continuum to be complete, providers must attempt to ensure that they are not alone in the responsibility to update and review EHRs for accuracy.
Patients have a role, too. Sometimes, that assignment is fairly simple for the patient: talk to the provider so data can be input regularly.
"I'll oftentimes have patients who will call me and say 'I weigh 3 more pounds today than yesterday,' or 'I'm noticing that my blood pressure is very high and I've had to take an extra dose of my medication'," said Betsy Boyle, RN, case manager at Greenspring Medical Center, Springfield, VA, one of 16 full-service retirement communities managed by Erickson Living.
Boyle inputs information that she receives from patients into the system and sends alerts to any other parties involved.
"Our EHRs have a flag system," she explained. "I can send a doctor a flag saying 'Mrs. Smith is coming to see you today for evaluation of her wound; however, she has been coughing for 4 days, as well.'"
While Boyle's job gives the patient a relatively passive role in HER management, other systems and facilities call for more active participation.
"We have a patient portal that allows me, when I get labs, to write a note immediately to the patient and forward it to them," said Nevill. "When they get a message in their email, they can go onto the system to see those labs and my comments. They then print the lab results and take them to their appointments. I think a lot of places are moving toward this."
EHRs also allow patients the opportunity to update personal information between visits or send messages to appropriate practitioners, alerting them of specific concerns. Additionally, information remains available throughout the patient's life, which can be an amazing aid, Nevill said.
"You can see everything that I've given the patient since 2004 in my health center," she added. "If you [as the practitioner] want to try a new medication but I discontinued its use for this patient in 2005, the EHR system will flash up a warning to let you know that. You don't lose pieces of information that, quite frankly, we as humans can forget. It's in the system."
New Contest!
Every team has at least one defining moment. What was yours for the past year?
Barriers to Care
Of course, there are cons to EHRs that providers have to be wary of. The primary concern is interfacing.
Right now, most hospital EHR systems are not compatible with private systems. Outside practitioners and those on staff within out-of-state hospitals, for example, cannot always simply log on and access a patient's information online uniformly.
Mail and fax are still the primary modes of communication among out-of-network providers, though steps are being taken to change that.
Then, there are those who, despite their providers' best efforts, succumb to the "fear." There are also those working in the healthcare community who need a little convincing and a lot of training in regards to electronic communication.
"When you work with residents and newer healthcare practitioners coming out of school, they've all been trained on computers; but for the nurses and physicians who have grown up using paper, it's a big change," Fuller related. "In support of nurses, sometimes the change impact has been underestimated. Having said that, once they get through that painful learning curve, they don't want you to take that computer system away from them."

Whether you're moving from a two-year or four-year college, we know the transition to a new college can be tricky. Here's some helpful information to help get you started.
You may reach any of the staff below by calling our toll-free number at 1-877-462-3687. Here's who to ask for:
Jacquelin Linn, Transfer Student Admission Counselor
- Application, admission, credit transfer, transcript evaluations and general questions
Donna Newendorp, Associate Director of Financial Aid
- Financial aid and loans
We suggest you start the application process at least three months prior to your intended enrollment date. That assures you the best opportunity to arrange for housing, apply for financial aid and attend orientation and registration. Make sure you do the following:
Send your paper application, transcripts, test scores and application fee (if needed) to:
Office of Admission
Central College
812 University Street
Pella, Iowa 50219
Campus visits are encouraged! We are happy to arrange for you to take a tour of campus and meet with an admission counselor, registrar (to help determine how credits will transfer), faculty member, coach, financial aid office and others that will help ease your transition to Central. Our office hours are Monday through Friday from 8 to 5 and Saturday from 9 to noon during the academic year. Schedule a visit!
Making sure the credits you have already earned will transfer toward a degree at Central is likely a key concern. Courses in which you have earned a C (2.0) or better will be considered for transfer credit. A maximum of 60 semester hours of transfer credit (including a maximum of 24 semester hours from AP, IB, PSEO, and dual enrollment) may be applied toward completion of a Central College degree. Course equivalencies from numerous Iowa community colleges are available here. A transfer credit evaluation may be requested at any time. Please email Jacquelin Linn, transfer student admission counselor.
Central College offers a generous scholarship program for transfer students. All admitted students will be considered for scholarship (no separate application necessary). Additionally, students filing the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid - fafsa.ed.gov) will be considered for all need-based financial assistance. Central's FAFSA code is 001850. We recommend you file the FAFSA no later than June 1.
Approximately 98 percent of our students receive some type of financial assistance, including academic scholarships, need-based grants, work study, and student loans. In addition we offer a convenient monthly payment program or a SAFE account plan to help manage your college expenses.
Central College is an intentionally residential community. We are committed to on-campus living as a vital component of our integrated learning environment. As a transfer student at Central, you have several options for living arrangements. There are two co-ed halls, one women's hall, one men's hall, an apartment style complex and our townhouse facilities. Be assured that we work with each student to match up roommates with similar interests and at similar points in their college career.
We require all full-time students to live in college-owned housing unless married, of nontraditional age (23 years or older), a veteran or have a dependent child(ren). Off-campus living is limited and permitted for upper class students only when there is a shortage of rooms on-campus. Transfer students must get approval to live off-campus.
Please be aware that financial aid will be adjusted for off-campus students.
