I cant remember for the life of me where the ESB center stock greeblie came from. Anyone remember? thanks!
Don't think that's ever been identified,was rumoured to be a reverese button off an old myford super 7 lathe,but I've looked through 100s of pics of all parts can't find any proof tho :-/
I figured it was discovered because the one Stormrider has is a dead on match. He's been hard to reach lately though.
From this pic we can see it pretty well
Here is a cropped shot of it, with stormriders in the insert
If anyone knows it would probably be SR. He had gave me the ok to cast a few of his back when i was building his kits for people in case i needed one. But i have since tossed that mold and sold all my molds to ASOK, and right now i need 4 of em for a couple of builds..but i also wanna start making the greeblies again so im searching for some of the parts...again lol ..this is the only one im not sure where it came from..i thought i knew at one point.
I think Danzo is right. I don't believe that part has ever been identified. SR did an incredible job on his though. Looks just like it.
Nevermind! SR got back to me..his was custom made in CAD! Incredible job!
ah ya beat me to it Matt lol yep you guys are right!
I wonder what the heck it is! Now its gonna drive me nuts lol
WoF already did some amazing templates of those parts; you can find the file here ==> ESB Stock Center Square Greeble Draft Drawings.
And another one made by Seven ==> Esb center greebile - Post #21
I would LOVE to find this part, as would alot of us, but its gonna be a tough one. Guess im gonna become a Lathe enthusiast too lol
SR's was so good i actually thought it was a found part until he told me he actually made it in CAD lol. But reading the thread Raf posted..the one that ends with Sevens drawing..i see within that thread more about when SR started doing his. I must say, VERY nice work SR, you had me fooled lol.
Well SR will get me the 2 sets of his that i need, when hes up and running again (he said about 2 weeks or so) but from sevens drawings and the ref photo i will try and fabricate something so when i offer greeblie kits again it will be as close as i can get. I know someone with access to a super high end 3d printer..maybe they can make a master for me. Or i'll try to do it with thin layers of plastic..if i do that i'll post a thread for it. I just want to be able to offer a complete greeblie set with at least something that looks super close to the correct center greeblie. Or folks can always get one from SR.
The problem with the super 7 is that there are several different models from introduction in 1953 so even assuming you were looking at A super 7 you might not be looking at the right super 7. It would be good to know where the super 7 info originated but SR pieces are excellent.
Yea i have no idea! But yea your right SR's are excellent!
And they're expensive. I'm not buying one on the off chance!
A good one is five to six thousand pounds. So I guess that's a lot more in dollars.
yes indeed!
One day someone will confirm it at the very least. Then someone will find one lol. If noone is 100% sure thats what it is, then its risky even thinkin about parting one of those machines for it. Im guessing, if in fact it is a switch/button for one of these, that the details we are looking at is on the underside of the button, which makes it even harder to find!
Quite and there are something like ten model variations between 1953 and 1977 alone so if it is a Myford part it'll be tough to find.
Hey guys,
I'm finding that I have molds I didn't know I had. One thing that Bill and I never got to was for him to go through all of them and tell me what they were. I will be doing an inventory of all of them this week. If I run across anything that looks like it I will let you know.
Where did the Super7 theory itself originate?
http:// http://bobafettcostuming.wik...B+EE-3+Carbine
But might be wrong and may have read it elsewhere as this site gets periodically edited and updated so it's tough to be sure as the information is different. It could have been from anywhere or any site. I'm sure I've read it here several times going back some while so it could have been on here too. Wherever it was it's never cited a source; kind like Keyser Sose - I know a guy who knows a guy who knew a guy that worked with Keyser Sose etc.
I'm Keyser Sose blah.....
Dear Lathe enthusiasts,
in furtherance of this issue I contacted Myford about this part. The good news is that I did receive a reply (thanks to Jack @ Myford) rather than scorn or silence. The bad news is that the company that presently runs and owns Myford has only done so for two years and no - one really knows. I'm still in contact with Jack trying to draw out any further info he might have.
Additionally I decided to buy a modern reversing switch unit to see if it was an option. Inconclusive I am afraid. The overall size of the box is about right but the innards are not correct. However mine is a modern, plastic piece so I won't rule it out completely.
I am still trying to ascertain if a reversing switch of this kind was in existence or common use during our time frame. It would seem to me that a lathe of that period would most likely employ a 'Dewhurst switch' (I'm a riot at a party believe me) as is present on most devices of the time period. I've yet to obtain a Dewhurst switch to view the insides but am considering it although I think it unlikely the box is an inner part of one of those; if you know what a Dewhuart looks like you'll understand. I'm not giving up on this part yet and would rather take it to the natural conclusion even if it's a negative.
'Ave it!
IMO a definitive negative on this theory would be almost as good as a definitive positive result. Good on ya.
Lmao,I've also been in contact with a few guys,firstname.lastname@example.com,is the expert in this field he has the oldest model,but this part is not there but he's not sure about the later models...still waiting to here from another guy who myford boy recommended as he thinks that it could be imported from the U.S. Cus all parts where not made in the uk,Tony the other contact was unable to help at the present time,so don't think I'm gona here from him...lol
Good work Darren, if I'd known you were looking at this I'd have asked your advice first. For me the key, as mentioned by SW earlier, is the origin of the Myford info in the first place.

"Spaceman, I always wanted you to go into space, man…" this is what the Boyan autumn 2012 collection had me humming as I flicked through the lookbook. The range takes our minds to an Apollo 13-esque thought process. The long lines and silver patches lend themselves well to be a clean and unique season. Heavy embellishments give it a modern-regal feel; hints and hemlines filled with sequins give that edge to a boxy shaped, backless dress or a crop top with bright white trousers.
An elegant twist to the parka jacket comes with a fur trimmed hood and sleeve, deep almond in colour and cinched in waist with silver toggles. That's smart-cash look taken care off if you ever get an invitation to space! Let's not forget to mention the statement knitwear which also has the same appliqué sequins in minimal designs. The embellishment runs through Boyan's autumn/winter collection like a thread, making it a sparkling season. Anyone up for seeing Mars?

Just wondering how important it is to people to have a well equipped shop V.S. It will do...eg. I seem to spend as much time building things for the garage as I do working on my project. (sandblaster, axle stands, rotisserie, eng. stands, storage, hyd press etc...) I could spend the bucks and buy all this stuff, but can't seem to find exactly what I want. I'd rather work on the garage, changing things to make the project go smoother and more enjoyable. The downside is the truck will likely never get finished... Is anyone else of the same frame of mind?
I hear ya'.
If i'd have saved all the money i've spent on tools etc, I could have bought a new truck or had the one I have done by someone else...... but thats ok, I consider it an investment that will be reaping good returns way on down the road....
but the way i look at it ( no offense too any COMPETENT professional mechanics) ( I feel the same way about doctors too) I can do as good a job OR better than some bozo who could give a ratsass about my ride, and for a heck of a lot cheaper. and i can do it the way I want.... and having all the right equipment makes a huge difference.......
and I figure the time I spend working in my shop as part of my salary....... if i was paying $60 an hour for labor at a shop, I should get at least 1/2 that..... I spend it all on parts.....
I wonder if my wife really buys that, or is she just humoring me????
Money spent on tools and fixtures isn't really wasted, it depends upon how much you use it. If you will use something only once or twice, you may want to farm out that portion of the work. If you enjoy restoring and fabricating, the sky is the limit. (if you are talking for a paying shop rather than a hobby, depreciation works into the equation too) I usually have 2 or 3 projects going at one time, and finish about 1 or 2 a year, tops. I buy alot, but still farm out engine machine work and body off and on work. I can't justify the lifting equipment and rotisserie for as little as it would get used.
my rule of thumb, if it fits in the toolbox, on the shelf or in a cabinet, I'll buy it.
sorry posted on the wrong thread.How do you delete a post if you find your on the wrong thread.I tried but it wouldn't let me.

The difference in a tail wag
Thought I'd share this. Anyone have opinions. Going to check my dogs tail wag out when I get home. Although it goes in circles much of the time.
Dogs Understand a Left-Sided Wag from a Right
Posted Date: February 27, 2014
Have you noticed that your dog's tail sometimes wags more to one side than the other? It might mean something! By Claudia Bensimoun
Although many of us may think that our dog's wagging tail merely reflects his happiness, there is far more to the wagging than initially thought. Recent studies demonstrate that dogs do recognize and respond differently when their fellow canine companions wag either to the right or to the left. These new findings (which demonstrate that our furry best friends, like humans, have asymmetrically organized brains, with both sides playing different roles) were first reported in the Cell Press Journal Current Biology on October 31, 2013.
New research by Dr. Giorgio Vallortigara of the Center of Mind/Brain Sciences of the University of Trento, Italy demonstrates that "the direction of the tail wagging does in fact matter, and it matters in a way that matches hemispheric activation," says Dr. Vallortigara of the University of Trento, Italy via Science Daily. "In other words, a dog looking to a dog wagging with a bias to the right side-and thus showing left-hemisphere activation as if it was experiencing some sort of positive/ approach response - would also produce relaxed responses," says Vallortigara. "In contrast, a dog looking to a dog wagging with a bias to the left side, thus showing right-hemisphere activation as if it was experiencing some sort of negative/withdrawal response, would also produce anxious and targeting responses as well as increased cardiac frequency. That is amazing, I think," adds Vallortigara.
This latest discovery follows earlier studies by the same Italian research team, which found that when dogs wag to the right they are happy and experience positive emotions. In contrast, when our furry best friends wag to the left they are experiencing negative emotions and are feeling anxious, aggressive, or depressed. This would possibly occur when seeing another dog. This biased tail wagging behavior demonstrates what was also happening inside the canine brain.
When monitoring the reactions of the dogs in the study, researchers monitored their reactions while showing them videos of other dogs that were either wagging to the left or to the right. They found that dogs do respond differently when other dogs either wag to the left or to the right.
Dr. Vallortigara and his team don't believe that the dogs are necessarily trying to communicate these emotions to other canines. Instead, he mentions that the bias of the tail wagging in our dogs is likely the automatic byproduct of differential activation of the left versus the right side of the brain. He also suggests that the bias in tail wagging and its response might not be find practical uses today, nonetheless pet parents, veterinarians, and most people that spend time around dogs may benefit by taking note of these tail wagging results.
"It could be that left/right directions of approach could be effectively used by vets during visits of the animals or that dummies could be used to exploit asymmetries of emotional responses," explains Vallortigara.
Current Biology - Seeing Left- or Right-Asymmetric Tail Wagging Produces Different Emotional Responses in Dogs
Claudia Bensimoun is a freelance writer in West Palm Beach.
Fascinating article! I will watch very carefully and see which way the tail wags depending on the situation..
I haven't noticed left/right as much... but I can definitely tell my dog's attitude based on her tail. Puppy hasn't quite figured it out... but my older dog Tasha definitely speaks with her tail.
She was never a wagger, so it's very easy to tell. She's calm but pleased when I call her name and she gifts a soft wag. She's really excited about something when it's a big bold wag. Noticeably circular wag is happy and seeing something. Tail straight up is around most other dogs, not moving means she's being particularly firm about her place, wagging but high up is usually what she does with the puppy, making it clear that she rules the roost, but is friendly and willing to play.... and more that I recognize and understand, but can't really put into words. :p
Yeah right, next thing theyll be saying that dogs poop aligned with the poles>LOL Where is all this spare research money coming from?
Been keeping an eye on this, and it seems to hold some water. My male is, from a casual glance, a dour fellow. Very reserved and not the jumpy, excitable type. I know his moods fairly well and when he is frisky and happy his tail does indeed spin with a right influence. When he's yelling at something or someone on the property his tail spins to the left. My female with her puppy-brain reaction to everything just wiggles her whole body and her tail is all over the place.

Bitting Issue....Please help
Sasha will be 1 year next month. For awhile now she has tried biting my hands, ankles, clothing. We started more advance training with a really good trainer last month and she stopped for a couple of weeks. Then started again. Now its basically every day. When I come home from work, she is happy to see me, tail wagging and then instead of licking, she tries to bite. Its not a soft bite, now that she has her adult teeth .it hurts.
I will say that she does not try this with my husband. He has established with her that he is the boss. Its like she is a different pup when he is around. If he is around and she starts biting me, he says NO and stops that second. But if he doesnt say anything, she continues. I have tried, OW, YELP basically anything and everything to get her attention that this not acceptable behaviour in our house. I have tried redirecting her to play with her ball (which she loves) or basic training. I have tried holding her by the scruf and saying no. If I do this, she lies down and then as soon as I walk away, she comes right back at me. Or she tries and then runs away and comes right back. If my husband leaves the house and its just me and her home, she goes full out. I have tried time-outs in her crate, dont like using her crate as punishment because she sleeps in there and I dont want her to think of her crate as a bad place.
Looking for help ..she will be 1 year old next month and this cannot continue. I love her and always look forward to going home and seeing my puppy but getting very frustrated.
Any suggestions?
You're tolerating it, however unwillingly, while your spouse isn't. Sasha obviously can do the right thing as she so readily does it for your husband. You need to acquire that respect & can do so.
Until she's under your control I think your interactions with her s/b 'serious' rather than 'playful', ie train & train & TRAIN rather than unstructured romping. With training (which she'll enjoy) she'll be focused & thinking rather than simply reacting. Mix it up & keep it interesting.
Look into NILIF & consistently apply it. There are multiple threads on NILIF & it's invaluable in asserting *your* control of the situation vs Sasha's. (Currently she is clearly in the driver's seat in her interactions with you).
Note that she's either learning one thing or another. Every time she successfully nips you it's reinforced that it's acceptable behavior & further delays getting the behaviour from her that you need & deserve.
Your attitude needs work as much as Sasha's. Don't *ask* for her respect & good behaviour. Expect it. Consistently. It's not optional. Period & NO compromises. She's at an age that can be silly & willful but she's no longer an itty bitty baby. Nor is she a toddler or grade schooler. She's verging on sexual maturity & probably has many of the attitudes of a teenager, albeit a very nice teenager. I will redirect puppy biting but with a 1 yr old biting STOPS or it's the end of the world...(figuratively speaking).
Thanks ruby. I will look into NILIF.
I have also 12 months old GS and she does exacly the same now. She is excited when I come home nad grabs my hand into her mouth (typical mouthing behaviour) so I stop ne tell her to "stop biting" and that usualy stops but if she continues I use gently my finger and press on the bottom of her mouth under the tongue and I repeat words "no biting". This usually stops her and she knows meaning of "no biting". It is improving and noticed that she only uses this if she needs to go out to bathroom urgently. At first I did not recognized this as a sign and assumed it is mouthing but once I took her out (as it was close to her ususal walking time) she had to go close to front yard, which she never does. It happened few time on exception basis but noticed patterns and if she does that persistently after I telll her to "stop biting" I take this as indicator of need to go out to bathroom.
Overall, it is getting much better with this.
When I met my wife, my shepherd at the time would not listen to her for anything. We finally noticed if she used a low deep voice it got her attention right away. I guess my voice gets deep when I'm pissed off :)
Thanks everyone for the great advice.
Yes I have tried lowering my voice and raising my voice. Saying "No Bite" "No Bitting" and "NO". Nothing seems to work.
Just very frustrating. i see how she is with my husband and i want that with her.
What about having a basket with stuffed toys nearby? This is how my DH dealt with my puppy's chewing. We did things a little differently in my home, because I was encouraging my puppy to mouth me. I like to teach a soft bite, not actually discourage the bite, so there was misunderstanding on his part - he thought I was teaching my puppy to bite us, lol. But he redirected with a toy every time that little mouth came at him, and that worked.
Scruff grabbing can send mixed messages, because you could be instigating play with her. If she's lying down then she's submitting to you, but she's still coming back for more of the playtime so she needs to understand this isn't your idea of fun.
Hi everyone.
I talked to our trainer last night about this issue. Explained to him that I have tried everything to correct this. he suggested using her crate as a time-out when she bites me. Simply put her in her crate for 15-20 mins she calms down and then let her come out. if she continues back in. He said that she should learn quickly that if she bites me she looses her freedom. My only concern is that i don't want her to think of her crate as a bad place as when both my husband and I are out of the house she goes in her crate.
Would she get the wrong idea if I use her crate for the biting issue? Any other ideas as to stop the biting?
Thanks again everyone.

I think the crate is a fine idea. But to use it correctly it can't be as punishment. So if you are going to use it, put a leash in her, when she nips,say nothing at all. No interaction from you, pick up the leash, walk her to her crate and put her in. All the while saying nothing. If you are hollering at her, telling her no, grabbing her collar, it would be wrong.

Mine was a monster one Saturday a couple weeks ago, biting, defiant, etc. That evening I got down on the floor with him. (he loves this). He started biting, "No Biting", he continued to bite so I got up, sat in my high backed office chair and turned my back to him. He melted down, the world was ending. I used this to my advantage and repeated the process about 4 times.
Dramatic difference! The effect has lasted. He still gets mouthy, "No Biting" and you can tell he is trying. If he gets out of control, he doesn't get my attention. So far this is working. I would presume the crate time may have the same effect. I would just be careful with it. I think 15-20 mins might be a little long. Maybe not, your trainer would likely know better as he knows the dog.
Just my $0.02

l48 350 specs
hello everyone
i usually dont post much as pretty much everything can be found in the knowlege base or by using the search mode, except my question. i am looking for any information on "real life" experiences on the l48 350 sbc found in 1st gen camaros. i would like to know for example if the stock heads are any good and what type, cam type(hydralic, or what), and any other general knowlege one may have.
i have read books on the engine but they didnt provide me with any info im looking for. any help would be greatly appreciated.
the reason for the question is, is im not going to race the car, but would like to obtain in the neighborhood of 400hp for a restoration. i have already had the engine bored.030 over, installed an electronic ign, headers(mr gasket), and i plan to install a larger cam(not sure yet). thanks for any help.
in case it matters i have a 67 ss350 camaro,m20 4spd, numbers matching with 70k original miles on the clock. i am doing a modified restoration to look all original, with out ruining a nice gem.

To Convert or Not To Convert; How Does a Roth IRA Conversion Affect Student Aid?
Mark Kantrowitz
October 31, 2011
I am retired with no income from employment and a moderate amount of investment income, $20,000 to $30,000 a year. I am contemplating a partial conversion from my traditional IRA to a Roth IRA. Such conversion is included in my adjusted gross income, but is not really spendable income to support my son's education. If I make such a conversion, would this adversely impact our eligibility for financial aid for my son's college education? For example if I do a $200,000 conversion that might move my AGI from $30,000 to $230,000. Do I need to avoid making Roth IRA conversions until my son graduates from college? I am 60 and my son is a high school sophomore. If I wait until he graduates from college, I will be age 67 and at that point a Roth IRA conversion makes little sense. — Allan J.
Since January 1, 2010, taxpayers have been able to convert a traditional IRA into a Roth IRA regardless of income or tax-filing status. Previously, Roth IRA conversions were restricted to taxpayers with income under $100,000 and taxpayers who filed federal income tax returns as married filing separately were also ineligible.
The main differences between a traditional IRA and a Roth IRA concern the contributions and the distributions. Contributions to a traditional IRA are made with before-tax dollars, while contributions to a Roth IRA are made with after-tax dollars. Distributions from a traditional IRA are taxable, while distributions from a Roth IRA are not. (Note that distributions from a Roth IRA are tax free only if the taxpayer is over age 59 1/2 and the account has been open for at least five years.)
Converting part of a traditional IRA to a Roth IRA can provide a hedge against tax increases. If the taxpayer's tax rate will increase in retirement, a conversion can save money. Odds are likely that Congress will increase taxes (or reduce tax breaks) in the future, given the record budget deficits. The Bush Administration tax cuts account for more than 40% of the budget deficit, making it likely that some of these tax cuts will not be extended beyond their expiration in 2012.
Another benefit of a Roth IRA is the lack of a minimum required distribution. If the taxpayer's children inherit the Roth IRA, they will not be required to take distributions either. With a traditional IRA, the taxpayer is required to take distributions at age 70 1/2.
But the conversion from a traditional IRA to a Roth IRA results in taxable income that is included in the taxpayer's adjusted gross income. (For 2010 there were special conversion rules that allowed the taxpayer to pay the taxes over two years. In 2011 and later years, the income from the conversion is reported in a single tax year.) Income taxes are based on the amount of the conversion, including both earnings and before-tax contributions. Any after-tax contributions are assumed to be proportionally included in any distribution.
Thus converting a traditional IRA into a Roth IRA can bump the taxpayer into a higher tax bracket. This could increase the adjusted gross income enough to disqualify the taxpayer from a variety of tax benefits, including the Hope Scholarship tax credit, Lifetime Learning tax credit and the tuition and fees deduction. It can also affect eligiblity for student financial aid.

High winds, blowing sand cause road closures in Palm Springs
Several major traffic arteries closed due to sand drifts and low visibility
PALM SPRINGS, Calif. - Due to high winds, Gene Autry Drive and N. Indian Canyon Drive are both closed. As a result, the off ramps at Date Palm Drive are backing up severely. Drivers are advised to seek alternate routes, such as Highway 111, Bob Hope Drive, and Monterey Avenue to exit and/or enter the freeway.19756392
Here are the latest road conditions as of Monday morning:
NORTH INDIAN CANYON - CLOSED south of I-10 through the White Water Wash to Tramview Road, shut down at 11p.m. Sunday.
GENE AUTRY TRAIL - CLOSED due to sand drifts and low visibility just south of the I-10 freeway to Via Escuela.
VISTA CHINO DRIVE - OPEN between Cathedral City and Palm Springs through the White Water Wash.
DATE PALM DRIVE - OPEN south of Interstate 10.
RAMON DRIVE - OPEN between Cathedral City and Palm Springs.
The California Highway Patrol urged motorists to drive carefully today with strong winds blowing dust and sand across the Coachella Valley, just as attendees of the weekend music festival were heading home.
Cars left the site of the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival this morning and lined up to get on Interstate 10 in Indio, with winds blowing sand across the freeway.
The National Weather Service issued a high wind warning for the valley and mountain areas until 9 a.m. Tuesday, saying the winds were likely to cause blowing dust and sand, reducing visibility and making driving hazardous.
"The blowing sand and dust limits visibility (and) is posing a hazard to all drivers, not just those driving high-profile, lightweight vehicles," CHP Officer Joe Zagorski said.
In Palm Springs, North Indian Canyon Drive was closed in both directions between Garnet Avenue and Tramview Road because of sand covering the road and low visibility, and Gene Autry Trail was closed in both directions between I-10 and Via Escuela. Palm Springs police and the CHP asked motorists to use Bob Hope Drive, Monterey Avenue, Ramon Road and Highway 111 as alternate routes.
According to the CHP, drivers should turn on their headlights, slow down to avoid debris and drive in right lanes. Those driving at low speeds should turn on their hazard lights.
According to an NWS advisory, sustained winds of 25 to 35 mph and gusts of up to 60 mph were expected, along with isolated gusts of up to 75 mph.

Over the past few years, the rise of the always addressable customer combined with a challenging economic environment and stagnant markets has created a perfect storm — challenging marketers' ingrained assumptions about how to best invest their budgets. And with that comes one major recurring question that senior marketers must face. While simple, it still proves daunting for marketers: How can I make sure that I have best allocated my marketing and communication investments to support my brand in the marketplace and clearly drive positive outcomes? We at Forrester have created a brand-new research framework — called playbooks — designed to effectively answer this crucial question, not only helping marketers figure out where to start but also providing a practical step-by-step guide to help achieve mastery in a given area.
Today I'm pleased to introduce you to the marketing mix optimization playbook to help you master the art of multichannel planning and the science of marketing mix modeling. With this playbook, we will help you to:

Changing Jobs
Should students wish to change jobs or simply quit without securing other employment, they must send written notification to both Student Employment and the current employer. Any and all consequences that arise as a result of a voluntary change in employment are the responsibility of the student. No job changes will be allowed until the end of the second week of fall semester.
Students who do not receive financial aid but are nonetheless employed by the university because of exceptional circumstances may not change jobs. Should the department that originally employed the student no longer require the services of that student, no further employment may be secured. In other words, students not on financial aid who secure employment through unusual circumstances are not entitled to any employment outside that department or different from their original position without prior approval from the Office of Student Employment.

Rachel Yankey admits Arsenal Ladies' difficult run in May could have been the wake-up call they needed to improve their level of performance this season.
Laura Harvey's side have bounced back strongly from a run of one win in four last month - a disappointing stretch by their standards - with convincing victories over Bristol and Chelsea.
Arsenal avenged their FA Cup semi-final defeat with a 3-0 Continental Cup victory over the latter on Sunday and Yankey believes the team are beginning to find their feet once more.
"People are used to seeing Arsenal win and win convincingly," the winger told Arsenal.com. "There were a few games where we were winning but weren't playing well, but if you lose a game it is just highlighted and people start to panic.
"I think we knew that we had to play better and we have known that for a while. We stuck together, battled through it and hopefully we can continue on a winning streak."
Victory over the Blues booked a lat-four place against Bristol as the Gunners look to defend their Continental Cup crown. Harvey's side registered a 3-0 win over their close rivals in the Women's Super League two weeks ago - but Yankey expects a entirely different challenge next time around.
"I think Bristol will be a tougher game [than two weeks ago] when we play them in the semi-finals," said the 32-year-old. "That was a game where everything we had tried to do this season had actually started to work for us and I think we played well in that game.
"It was positive for us and I felt that we could have even scored more goals to take more of an advantage. We will go into the semi-finals with confidence but I think it will be a lot tougher than the game we have just had.
"It was great [to beat Chelsea], we knew what we had to do and obviously as players we wanted to go out there and beat them. We were disappointed that we lost to them in the FA Cup semi-final, which was a game we believe we could have won.
"It was only really our own fault that we didn't go through to the final and it was for us to learn from it and make sure it didn't happen again. So we had to prove that right on Sunday, which we did."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Sounds like loose bearing clearances to me.
5.9 Mopar Oil pressure Issues, mass confusion now.
Working on a friends Dakota with a 5.9.
Problem is good oil pressure at cold idle / cold driving. Low oil pressure at High temps / hot driving. No oil pressure under 2200rpm during hot driving, under deceleration returns to normal pressure until you try driving again then drops to 0psi.
The problem is just frustrating now; below is the list of parts that have been replaced.
*Sea foamed the engine,
*Oil Pump and Oil Pickup,
*10w-30 mobile 1 engine oil with Fram tough guard (3X)
*Mechanical oil pressure gauge.
*Oil Pressure sending unit
*PCV valve (3X)
*All vacuum lines under the hood.
The pump and pickup were replaced because it seemed the most likely reason in our minds, pump was replaced, pickup adjusted properly, and primed (did get oil pressure during priming.
Sending unit was replaced because the local Dodge dealer said it could be the problem. Only problem with this is if the sensor had failed it would read full oil pressure at all times on the gauge.
PCV valve was next because we weren't sure the last time it was changed.
Vacuum lines were replaced just to make sure nothing was blocked off, cracked or clogged.
I've been trying to figure this out on my own since Tuesday of last week, so I have some weird sounding ideas but I'm out of simple change this part ideas. Listed bellow are some ideas I've run across and thought about so I'm posting some from other forums I've found and some that I've thought of on my own to just get a second opinion. (Each individual thought is listed with a * to its left.)
The engine has no pressure for sure (rattling, sounding like its chewing up stones til it builds pressure. (we do have bearings on hand for after we figure out what is causing the problem).
*When an engine is under stress like hard working more blow by can come into the crank case and if your PCV valve isn't working or can't remove the pressure, oil can and will foam making it possible the oil pump to lose ALL psi just like a air lock when replacing the oil pump so cavitation is plausible. Cavitation is the implosion of tiny air bubbles on the suction side of a pump and is caused by low pressure causing the fluid to "boil" after introducing pressure again the bubbles collapse with tons of force. This would be very noticeable and would sound like your oil pump was chewing up gravel. If that was the case I would look at a restriction in the suction side.
If it's a blow by situation and the oil is foaming thus creating the issues. The PCV valve helps to create vacuum on the crank case to remove blow by and if bubbles/foam are created the vacuum pops the bubbles.
*Silicone is an additive that is added to oil compounds to keep foam/bubbles under control. If there isn't enough it will foam. If too much it will foam. The manufacture rides a fine line. Maybe a gasket used somewhere throwing this possible problem into the big old pile? Ford Power Stroke engines had this problem because the gaskets were Silicone and they would leach out into the oil creating foam/bubbles thus creating cavitation in the oil pumps the same as this?
*Crack / leak in both the old and new oil pickup. Though I could not see a problem with either item I'm down to possibly thinking this as a possibility.
I'm stuck and really sick of working on the problem,

Arsène Wenger says he and his Arsenal players are not fooled by Bolton's slow start to the season.
Wanderers have endured a poor opening to their Premier League campaign with one win and four defeats from their opening five fixtures.
After a fine 4-0 victory at Queen's Park Rangers on the opening day Owen Coyle's side have struggled but Wenger insists he will not take the Trotters lightly on Saturday.
"The league is difficult and that can happen," said the manager.
"This season we have showed that it is difficult to beat anybody and maybe on the first day of the season they caught QPR cold.
"They have had some tough games as well."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc. Permission to use quotations from this article is granted subject to appropriate credit being given to www.arsenal.com as the source

Port of Hueneme encourages plastic bag ban
Deep sea port restricts use of plastic bags
PORT HUENEME, Calif. - Plastic wraps on imported cars will still be seen, but plastic bags won't be used for trash at the deep sea Port of Hueneme.
This week, the Board of Harbor Commissioners passed a resolution encouraging state, county, municipal and district government agencies to ban noncompostable plastic bags.
Port Director Kristin Decas said most plastic litter degrades and pollutes the marine environment.
Plastic pollution mistaken for food can be toxic for marine life.
Under Decas' direction, the port has made environmentally friendly changes.
The port now has electric docks. Rather than burning fuel, ships plug in while loading and unloading cars, bananas and other cargo.
The Port facilitates the transports more than $7 billion in cargo every year.

Games 46-47
Canisius (22-23, 6-8 MAAC) at Siena (17-25, 8-4 MAAC)
Date: Saturday, May 4, 2013
Time: Game One starts at 1 p.m.
Place: Siena Field – Loudonville, N.Y.
Live Stats: Available through SienaSaints.com
Twitter: @GoGriffs (athletic department) or @GriffsSoftball (softball)
Hashtags: #Griffs #MAACSoftball
- The Canisius College softball team will wrap up the 2013 season on Saturday when the Golden Griffins travel to Loudonville, N.Y., to meet the Siena Saints in a MAAC doubleheader.
- The Golden Griffins are 22-23 overall and 6-8 in MAAC play after splitting a non-league doubleheader at Colgate on Wednesday. The Griffs' 3-1 win in the opener over the Raiders ended the Blue and Gold's six-game losing streak, which was the longest losing skid of the season.
- Siena enters the final weekend of the regular season with a 17-25 overall mark and an 8-4 league record. The Saints have won nine of their last 12 games after earning a split with cross-town rival Albany April 30.
- Canisius' four losses at Iona and Fairfield last weekend officially eliminated the team from the 2013 MAAC Softball Championships. This marks just the third time since 1990 where the Blue and Gold has failed to earn a berth into the league's championship tournament.
- As a team, Canisius is 20-0 on the year when leading after six innings of play. The Griffs' 3-1 win at Colgate on May 1, not only snapped the team's six-game losing streak, but it also improved the squad to 4-2 this season in games decided by two runs.
- Freshman Meghan Cuda and sophomore Robin Kennery each enter the final weekend hitting .351 for the year. Kennery has 53 hits, which leads the team, while Cuda ranks second with 52 hits in her rookie campaign.
- Kennery and Cuda are the 24th and 25th players in school history to post more than 50 hits in a season. Cuda needs three more hits this weekend to pass former Griff Jody Tassone for the school's freshman hits record. Tassone had 54 hits in her rookie season of 1993.
- Kennery also leads the team in RBIs with 39. She needs one more run batted in to become the ninth player in school history to drive in 40 or more runs in a year.
- As a team, Canisius has hit 66 doubles this season, led by Cuda's team-high 10 two-base hits. A total of eight players, including Cuda, have five or more doubles on the year.
- Canisius enters the final weekend of the regular season ranked third in the MAAC in total runs scored with 201. Siena leads the conference with 235 runs scored in 42 games played.
- Canisius junior pitcher Jen Consaul leads the team with 15 wins this season, and she also leads the squad with 105 strikeouts, which ranks third in the MAAC.
- Freshman pitcher Jenn Solis earned her first collegiate complete-game win May 1, after she went the distance and allowed one run on four hits in the Blue and Gold's 3-1 win over Colgate on the road.
- The Saints enter the final weekend of the regular season with a 17-25 overall record and an 8-4 MAAC record. Siena starts this weekend in third place in the conference's standings.
- Siena is led offensively by sophomore Paige Lloyd, who is hitting .379 with 10 doubles, eight home runs and 30 RBIs.
- Junior Jessika-Jo Sandrini has a team-high 12 doubles on the year and has reached base a MAAC-high 21 times after being hit-by-pitch.
- Sandrini is the top pitcher on Siena's staff, as she enters this weekend with an 11-7 record to go with a 4.15 ERA in 109.2 innings of work.
- Canisius is 38-6 all-time against Siena after the Griffs swept the regular-season series in Buffalo April 7, 2012.
- The Griffs are 10-2 in their last 12 meetings against the Saints. The two teams split a doubleheader at Siena in Canisius' last trip to Loudonville, which came April 22, 2011.
- Since Canisius joined the MAAC in 1990, the Griffs are 22-1 all-time against Siena in games played at the Demske Sports Complex.

Mars Volta is a European electronic act, responsible for songs such as "Bach Song". This band is, understandably, often confused with The Mars Volta ( modern progressive rock band featuring former members of At The Drive-In). In fact, these two bands are entirely different and unrelated. But, in fact, all of the top 10 songs are from The Mars Volta, most likely because of the incorrect tagging of most mp3s.

text: At the US Figure Skating Northwest Regional Championships today the event came to a halt because of birds. There were bird in the arena that were flying down to the ice surface for water. This spooked some low level skaters. The question was what to do. After considerable delay the following took place. The zambonie door was opened, the lights were turned off. This was in hope that the birds would fly to the light outside. It did not work. I do not know where he cam from but a man in the area said he had bagpipes and that birds did not like bagpipe (I agee with the birds). He fired up the pipes and one bird flew out and the other seemed to hide for the rest of the day. At times I think I have seen it all in skating. A new one for sure

Any GSSF shooters out there?

Any GSSF shooters out there?
It's a bit of a drive for me, but I did manage to shoot one GSSF match a few years ago. Good times, lots of friendly folks there, and they have a Glock armorer on-duty that will check your Glock(s) for free, and replace almost anything damaged or worn. If you have any non-factory parts on your Glock, they usually will be removed by the Armorer and returned to you separately.
Prizes are Glock firearms for the top shooter in each division, and a few monetary prizes below that (depending on turnout); I believe they also award one Glock in a random drawing using all the entrants' names for the pool.
If there's a GSSF match close to you, I recommend attending. :smt023

I really liked the CZ 75B I tried out last week, but I wouldn't want to carry it very far. I'm almost a complete newbie, and I was hitting the bulls-eye at 7 yards from the second shot. I liked the stability and gentle recoil (in 9mm). I ended up with a plastic pistol for weight, and I like it, too, so far. The only Taurus I've tried was a revolver, and I haven't tried the others you've mentioned. I bought an FN FNP-9.
I'm thinking a CZ might be the second pistol in my collection. Some day!

1997-98 Season Outlook
In 1997, the women set the example. In 1998, both the women and men will try to duplicate it.
That's the story from the McDonald's Swim Stadium, where the USC women's swimming and diving team begins the task of defending its first-ever national championship. Across the pool, the men's team, coming off a sixth-place finish at the NCAAs last year, may have its strongest unit of the decade. Both squads have legitimate chances at NCAA crowns come March.
USC swimming coach Mark Schubert, beginning his sixth year leading the men's team and fifth coaching the women, eyes the upcoming season with cautious optimism.
The women's team, 9-1 overall, 4-1 in the Pac-10 in 1997, returns 7 of its 9 All-Americans from last year's NCAA championship team. The men's team, 8-0 overall, 4-0 in the Pac-10 last year, including a dual-meet upset win at Stanford, returns 6 of 9 All-Americans.
Though losses seem few, they were heavy for both teams.
The women are without one of the sport's all-time greats in Kristine Quance. Quance was a 7-time All-American last year and won 2 NCAA titles while serving as the team's emotional leader. Add to that the graduation of Hope Gittings, a 4-time All-American in 1997, and Schubert has a lot of points to replenish.
The men lost the services of All-Americans Jeff Julian, Brad Francis and Kent Johnson (7 combined All-American honors), whose absences weaken the Trojans across the board, though not quite as much as the women.
"At the NCAAs last year, our women's team had lots of blue-chip points from all of our top 5 finishes," Schubert said. "We've lost a lot of that from Kristine and Hope and those are the kind of points that we need to replace. With the addition of some key swimmers, however, we have the potential to be better in the relays than last year.
"We'll need to win some relays to win the title this year. I don't think a team has ever won the national title without winning a relay before us. But we were a bit fortunate because we scored so well individually. We need to plan on winning some relays if we want to have a shot.
"Last year with the men, we focused on improving our performance at the Pac-10 Championships. We felt we could make a move and we did, finishing second. This year, we are focusing more on the NCAA Championships and guys like Lenny Krayzelburg and Bela Szabados will be a big part of that push.
"Those guys are team leaders and along with them I am looking for big improvements from people like Bret Awbrey, Josh Ilika, David Taylor, Harvey Beckwith and Mark Kwok. Those are guys who have been to the NCAAs and all of them can improve and reach the finals. We also have some freshmen we need to develop. These are the people who are good at the national level but the top level at the NCAAs is a lot different."
Replacing Quance as USC's marquee women's swimmer is junior Lindsay Benko, though that statement doesn't do justice to what Benko has already accomplished. A 6-time All-American in 1997, she is coming off a year that saw her win her second consecutive NCAA titles in the 200 back and 500 free, finish second in the 200m free and fourth in the 800m free at the U.S.S. Nationals and post a pair of Top 10 finishes in the 200m free and 800m free at the Pan Pacific Championships.
"Lindsay is a leader in and out of the pool," Schubert said. "She shows the dedication necessary to compete at this level and it does a lot in teaching the younger people on the team how to succeed. When she came here, she was a good national-level swimmer but she has gotten much better every season, focusing on her weaknesses, and has become one of the best racers I've ever coached."
Junior Karen Campbell, one of the top flyers in the nation, returns as a 5-time All-American, coming off a 1997 season that saw her set 3 USC records while posting a pair of Top 4 finishes at the NCAAs.
"Karen was probably our biggest surprise last year," Schubert said. "Her continued improvements are key for our relays."
Sophomore Paige Francis (3 times), senior Sarah Maggio (twice) and senior Jean Ellis Todisco (once) are USC's other 3 All-American swimmers from last year. Francis earned her honors on 3 relays, Maggio posted a fifth-place finish in the 400 IM in addition to swimming on the 800 free relay and Todisco took third in the 200 fly.
"Paige had a spectacular summer and has improved in both her freestyle and backstroke and has developed the kind of confidence that should really help her. Jean will really be valuable in the fly and breast events and I look forward to continued contributions from Sarah as well."
USC's other returning All-Americans are divers D�rte Lindner (twice) and Natalya Chikina (once), whose contributions at last year's NCAAs proved invaluable.
"This should be the best women's diving team USC has ever fielded," USC head diving coach Jeff Shaffer said. "We have All-Americans returning in Dorte and Natalya and the addition of freshman Arus Gyulbudakian (a 1996 Olympian for Armenia) gives us 3 divers who could potentially final in all 3 events at the NCAAs."
Among Shaffer's other divers who could contribute at the Pac-10 level are sophomores Meghan Newlin and Caryn Doller as well as freshman Taylor Sherman.
In addition to the veterans, Schubert welcomes a handful of swimmers who will make contributions right away.
Sophomore transfers Kim Black (All-American at Ohio State) and Hillary Biscay (All-Big Ten at Michigan) and freshmen Alexis Binder, Rebecca Gilman, Corrie Murphy, Brittany White and Heidi Hendricks give Schubert depth that even his NCAA title team from last year didn't have.
"Hillary and Jean will be a couple of standouts in the breast. In the IM, we recruited two of the best in Corrie and Brittany. Corrie is very versatile and can compete in the free, back, breast and IM and Brittany is really talented in the IM as well. There's no way to duplicate Kristine's results, but with these two, we have the potential to come close.
"I also like our point potential in the middle-to-distance freestyles. We get Jamie Johnson back and with Alexis, Rebecca and Melissa Pavlik, we have a chance to score big points in those events."
Other swimmers who should contribute at the Pac-10s and/or the NCAAs for the Women of Troy include senior and 1996 All-American Lonna Stacey (free), sophomore Allyson Giampietro (free) and freshman Liah Kim (free, fly, IM).
As for the men, Krayzelburg and Szabados will carry much of the load as a group of talented but inexperienced teammates look to prove themselves at the NCAA level.
Krayzelburg returns as one of the top swimmers in the world. He was a 5-time All-American last year and won an NCAA title in the 200 back. He went on to break and reset the American record in the 200m back at the U.S.S. Nationals and the Pan Pacifics and is the top-ranked swimmer in the world in the 100m and 200m back events.
"His main goal this winter is the World Championships, but the focus and the hard work directed towards the Worlds will have a tremendous effect on the NCAAs," Schubert said. "He's already swimming his lifetime bests in practice. His excitement is very contagious to the rest of the team and provides a great deal of motivation."
Szabados, an NCAA title-winner in the 200 free in 1996, will look to return to that level after slipping a bit last year. He is still a 3-time All-American from last year who can final in the 200 and 500 free and is a vital member of the Trojans' relay teams.
USC's other returning 1997 All-Americans include juniors Mike Williams and Taylor, Ilika, a senior, and Awbrey, a sophomore.
Williams earned all of his All-American honors on relays (200 free, 200 and 400 medley) but has the potential to score in the sprint free and fly events as an individual.
"Mike is a big key for us," Schubert said. "He's been good on the relays and he's reached the consolation finals in the 100 fly. But I think he has the potential to be a team leader. And for that to happen, he has to take the step up to the finals."
Taylor earned All-American honors as part of both medley relays but has drastically improved in the breast events and could final in both.
Ilika, a co-captain with Krayzelburg, was a member of USC's All-American 800 free relay team and has the potential to be a big contributor in the 500 free and 200 fly.
Awbrey earned All-American honors on the 200 free relay and has the potential to do big things in the IM and fly events.
Another key returner is senior Chris Mylan, who is perhaps USC's best distance swimmer.
"Chris was big at the Pac-10s. We need him to train to be a distance swimmer for us and compete well in the 500 and 1650 freestyle and in the 400 IM and be able to score at the NCAAs," Schubert said. "He's been a dedicated swimmer and is somebody we can count on."
Kwok, a junior, Beckwith, a sophomore, and senior Eddie Durham all have NCAA potential as well.
As he does on the women's team, Schubert welcomes some great newcomers for the men, led by freshman All-American Philippe Demers. Demers is a versatile swimmer who can shore up holes in just about any area for USC.
"Philippe is one of the top, if not the top, freshmen in the country," Schubert said. "He can swim anything from the sprint to the middle-distance freestyles, the butterfly and the IM. We can put him wherever we need him."
Two other talented freshmen include Gabe Woodward and Slawek Richter.
"Gabe is a great sprinter coming out of high school and it's been exciting to see him make a big move from the junior to senior national level," Schubert said. "If he continues to improve like he has, he can help us a lot."
"Richter is a fine breaststroker and he should really improve this year. He's physically a big guy and he's just now getting stronger. He's a hard worker and should challenge David Taylor and Harvey Beckwith for leadership in the breaststroke."
Joining Shaffer's diving squad is perhaps the top prep diver to come out last year in Justin Dumais. He is a national level competitor who should be a 3-event finalist at the NCAAs.
"Justin is one of the top divers in the nation and should put himself in the top 6 in all 3 of the dives at the NCAAs," Shaffer said. "He should give us some much needed points from the diving side."
Also back for Shaffer are 3 sophomore divers, led by Tim Allport, the Pac-10 1-meter springboard champion. Allport is recovering from wrist surgery but should be back for the Pac-10s.
Ben Stiefel and Shawn Schuessler (who redshirted last year), both of whom have the potential to score at the Pac-10 level, also return.

The recent Earth Day celebration brought a slew of often-conflicting reports on consumers' environmental or green attitudes and behavior, such as "consumers cut spending on green," "green worth paying more for," "Americans hate faux green marketers," and "[Boomers] passionate for green." Green marketing initiatives were also everywhere, from Jet Blue's "One Thing That's Green" pledge to Procter & Gamble's "My Carbon Footprint" app and Target's eco-conscious "Refresh Your Nest" home makeover sweepstakes. Faced with this barrage of information and activities, many marketing leaders will be asking themselves what this means for their brand. Should they bide their time until the dust settles, or jump in? What about the risks of green-washing? Do consumers really care about the environment, or is it just something that they think they should care about? In truth, there is no one answer, because green marketing and green consumer behavior is changing rapidly. That being said, the expectation for companies to be more sustainable, from consumers and CEOs alike, is not going anywhere. So marketing leaders need to figure out what level of green engagement is right for their brand and their consumer.

The Grand Old Flag that flies at the center of the Washington Highlands neighborhood just became more majestic.
Thanks to a donation by resident Emily McNulty, spotlights now illuminate the American flag that has been posted at the roundabout at Washington Boulevard and Washington Circle for 50 years.
Residents of the Washington Highlands' 374 homes, as well as McNulty's family and friends, gathered Tuesday evening to celebrate Flag Day with a dedication ceremony. The lighting serves as a tribute to McNulty's late husband Truman, who died in 2004.
"He'd come home late and he'd say you're not supposed to fly at the flag at night unless it's lit," said daughter Mary Kay McNulty.
Truman was a World War II veteran, enlisting in 1942 for officer training school. He was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the U.S. Army Air Corps flying in China and Burma. He later served in the Army Reserve and became a military judge. Truman retired as a colonel, so patriotism was important to him, his wife said.
"He would have loved this," Emily said. "I can see the flag all lit up from my property because we're on a hill."
Her son, Mark McNulty, said with all the issues splitting the country he was impressed by the turnout for the dedication.
"Our country's going through turmoil right now, but people really are hungry for the Americana to stay alive," he said. "And I think this makes this neighborhood a little more special."
The family created a makeshift plaque for the ceremony, but a permanent bronze marker is on order. The Rev. Tom Caldwell from Marquette University said a prayer, granddaughter Brigette McNulty sang the national anthem, local Eagle Scout Evan Lynch led the Pledge of Allegiance and the newest resident of the neighborhood, Robert Newman, played taps on his trumpet.
The family donated funds for the equipment and installation to the Washington Highlands Historical Preservation Corp. The city connected the lighting to the street light circuit.
"When our lights go on, the flag lights go on," May Kay McNulty said.
The Historical Preservation Corp. was formed in 1998 to accept donations that contribute to the enhancement or preservation of the neighborhood, said organization President Dave Zachman.
The homeowner's association budget comes from fixed assessments on each property.
"It is completely gone after paying property taxes, snow removal for the sidewalks adjoining the parks and grass cutting," Zachman said. "The parks are all private property and are not maintained by the city. There is nothing left over for things like putting lights on flags."
The Historic Preservation Corp. works to complete the original neighborhood vision of designer/city planner Werner Hegemann and his Harvard-educated landscape architect partner, Elbert Peets.
"We have drawings of the original neighborhood entry designs that were never completed," Zachman said. "The stone entry markers at Lloyd Street and Marsha Washington Drive, Lloyd and Two Tree Lane, Hillcrest at 68th Street and Upper Parkway South at Milwaukee Ave are examples of completing the vision and have been installed in the last three years. Last year we were able to restore an old, collapsed stone seat wall in Applecroft Park."

Soccer • Landon Donovan is getting a chance to earn back his spot on the U.S. national team.
The three-time World Cup veteran was picked Thursday for the 23-man roster for next month's CONCACAF Gold Cup and can end an absence of nearly 11 months. Defender Oguchi Onyewu, who hasn't played an international match in more than a year, also was selected. But U.S. coach Jurgen Klinsmann omitted Carlos Bocanegra. The U.S. captain at the 2010 World Cup, Bocanegra was among 12 players cut from the preliminary roster announced May 31.
Forward Jack McInerney, tied for the Major League Soccer lead with 10 goals, and defender Corey Ashe could make their national team debuts.

Marabou breaks $6 million
Luxury ranch preservation development has 28 'homestead lots' remaining
February 25, 2007
Building sites at one of the Yampa Valley's estate ranch developments have gone back on the market, and the choicest of those "homesteads" now are priced at $6 million.
Developers of Marabou, an 1,880-acre ranchland preservation luxury subdivision west of Steamboat Springs, took 28 remaining 6.2-acre home sites off the market late in December 2006.
Partner Jeff Temple said the pace of demand for the lots coupled with the announcement of the sale of the Steamboat Ski Area to Intrawest/Fortress Investments, led him to call a timeout. He planned to take the holidays to reevaluate where the home sites fit into the local real estate market.
Temple said at the time that market factors would "trigger some price adjustments, it's just a question of how much."
John Hillenbrand, director of sales at Marabou Realty, said this week the developers did not impose an across-the board price increase on the remaining 28, six-acre-plus home sites. Instead, he said, the desirability of the parcels was taken into account, and price increases ranging from 5 to 20 percent were put in place.
The original range of prices began at $1.8 million and went up to $5 million. But that does not mean that lots that once sold for $1.8 million now cost $2.8 million. And there were one or two lots for which the price did not increase.
"The increases were based on proximity to the amenity buildings and (qualities such as) water views," Hillenbrand said.
The developers have always said that as more and more lots sell, and amenity buildings come on line, prices would be adjusted, he added.
Marabou has already closed on the sale of one $5 million home site and the remaining sites in that range now cost $5.95 million and $6.25 million. Hillenbrand said those homesteads are in a meadow where a side channel of the Elk River will feed a series of ponds.
However, Marabou's policy of returning an "incentive" to buyers means the net cost typically is less than the listed sale price. The partnership utilizes the incentive to adjust the price to the buyer as sales go forward, he said. There could be as many as five to seven more adjustments in the future.
Currently, Marabou has closed the sale of 17 home sites with an aggregate value of $40.4 million. Another seven lots are committed to the partners. Seven more have been put under contract with one closing scheduled in March. Two more of Marabou's estates are on hold, and one contract has been sent out of the office for signature, Hillenbrand said.
Temple and partners Mark Hall and Jeff Jepson did not need to rely on early sales to help fund the construction phase, Hillenbrand said – financing already was in place.
"Really, those first buyers were buying a concept rather than a finished project," Hillenbrand said.
The partners decided in early January to spend the extra money to push ahead through the winter with road construction and amenity buildings. The amenity buildings include cabins for the use of owners who won't build permanent homes until sometime in the future. There also are a main lodge, fitness center, movie theater and outdoor swimming pool, among other facilities.
Construction crews for TCD have completed the first of the cabins, with more under construction. The main lodge, resembling a large barn, is on pace to be finished as early as June, Hillenbrand said. The weatherproof membrane on the roof is already in place.

Just one question for anyone reading.I've read, within 6-10 hours the bees will realize they are queenless and start to flood a couple cells with royal jelly. If I introduce the queen at 12 hours I'm guessing they have already gone into emergency mode. When the bees find a mated queen has been placed in the hive do the workers stop feeding larvae royal jelly and these bees end up like a normal worker?Thanks, Steve
I let her cage site on top of the inner cover so the screen was hanging over the oval hole and facing down to communication with the bees, is this wrong way to introduce?

Hundreds of years ago, European colonists entered southeast Asia in search of trade and commerce, but also bringing with them priests and missionaries to spread the words of Jesus Christ. For centuries, Christians enjoyed the protection of colonial guns, but with the advent of independence for Asian nations, the status of Christianity within predominantly Muslim nations has always been open to the prospect of violence. Over the past weekend, there were riots in Pakistan in which Christians were killed and dozens witnessed the burning of their homes.
Police are now investigating whether violence was planned or did it arise from spontaneous anger deriving from rumors that Christians somehow had desecrated a Koran. Perhaps, the Christians of the city of Gojira got caught in the path of Taliban militants fleeing their defeat in the Swat Valley which led to spreading rumors against Christians in order to cover up their tracks. There is no doubt, when in trouble in many Muslim nations, just find some Christians and initiate violence.
A failure of nations such as Pakistan is to have even the semblance of multicultural education that enables Muslims to learn something about their Christian neighbors. In the absence of knowledge, the virulence of ignorance can result in death and destruction.

If you're still reading this thread, then check out www.dspictures.com again. We have a new 'Free' picture available.
You're welcome!
I got a little disapointed when I clicked on the small photographs. On the bigger photograph there was a big text "SAMPLE". I didn't find any good photographs without this word. Perhaps I have to search better. I understand that you want to sell the pictures, but I think it's better to put some good and free photographs on your site and change them from time to time. The result is that you will get more visitors to your site with a bigger chance of people bying the pictures.If there are only three good quality pictures at your site, I will put a link in my magazine and at my site. In that case it's worth for everybody to visit your site.
Kind regards,
Thanks for visiting www.dspictures.com. I'm glad that you found the pictures 'really great'. Please understand that we are, through the images, representing the pro- fessional dancers themselves. They receive a royalty for the sale of each moderatly-priced picture.
Were we to put a large image up for free, we would, in effect, be cheating the dancers themselves out of the just recompense for the image that they have spent literally thousands of hours developing, and that just wouldn't be right.
I think that you'll find in general, on the Internet (and in life) that you get what you pay for. May personal experience is that in general, things that are free, are worth what you pay for them.
Hopefully you'll still be willing both to recommend dspictures to others, and to support both the dancers represented, and Ballroom Dancing as a whole, by purchasing a picture at some point in the future. It will allow us to continue to capture the images, and will allow the dancers to thrive.
SincerelySteve Booth www.dspictures.com
Hmm. This should not happen. Exactly where are you 'clicking'? You need to click on the 'Check out our *Free* Picture...' banner, and it should route you to the download page.
Steve Booth
Thanks for providing a free high quality picture per month!
Of course I will put a link to your site in my dance magazine and on my site.

I just got backtrack, after a few days of searching how to make my usb bootable and get it to work. ( had some trouble with blackscreen and other errors ).
Anyway, I now want to update and upgrade my backtrack, as I read this that it's a good thing to do once in a while. Tho, this is impossible because when it's almost upgrades it says my volume is full.
I created a bootable usb persistent with the max mb's extra. My usb stick is 16 gig. Now I was wondering, if it is possible to create another partition on my usb stick so I can update and upgrade my backtrack.
Also, is there a change my backtrack won't work anymore when I update?
What I have done to fix it so it would workyis:
Xorg -configure
copy the new configure file to xorg.conf
then changed the word intel in vesa.
If any more information is needed, please let me know and I gladly post it here.

I am inclined to think that mabe one of the coils holds it in place like an AR15 design, so I am not sure if I would just bank away with a punch. The fact that they stay in place on a plastic frame also make me think that it is more than just an interference fit.

can someone maybe give me a tutorial or give me some advice how to paint the armor?

can someone maybe give me a tutorial or give me some advice how to paint the armor?
Well, For a good paint job you need to layer the paint. First sand the armor nicely with a light sand paper like 600 grit. Then give it about three coats of primer and let that dry for a couple of days. Then spray on a couple of coats of silver and let that dry for a couple of days. Then tape off scratches and damage where ever you would like. I suggest using electrical tape or some kind of liquid mask. Then spray on the first color that you want under the top coat. After about 10 to 15 minuets take the masking off. Then after the paint has dried completely mask off those same spots as before except a little bigger this time. Repeat this with the other colors. Then after all the colors are done spray the armor lightly with flat black to give it a dirty look. Also i suggest searching for weathering techniques in past threads here on TDH.:D
Mask the silver

Paint the first color

Mask off the scratches

paint the second color

mask off scratches

Then the top coat

Then dirty it up a bit

'Warm Bodies' heats up box office with $20 mil
The love-struck zombies of "Warm Bodies" swarmed the box office on Super Bowl weekend with a $20 million opening.
The Lionsgate PG-13 film easily led the box office, according to studio estimates Sunday. The weekend of the Super Bowl always means a significant slide in movie-going on Sunday, but "Warm Bodies" still lured many teenage fans.
The film is about a zombie whose love for a human redeems him. Lionsgate, which also released the "Twilight" saga, is calling it a "rom-zom-com" for its mix of humor, romance and the supernatural.
Action films continued to fare poorly in 2013, as Sylvester Stallone's "Bullet to the Head" opened with just $4.5 million.
