August is here and we made it through a very hot July planting and maintaining community gardens and greenspaces. The 2010 Greenspace Program officially ends this month, but many of the neighborhood participants will continue working and enjoying their project sites in August and the fall.
We are still accepting donations of perennials and shrubs. If you are dividing your perennials and would like to donate some of them so that they can be planted throughout the city, please call Doreen Larson-Oboyski 203-946-2203 or firstname.lastname@example.com. We would especially like (not exclusively) some native plants.
New Haven's Community Gardeners are watering their veggies. Lots of tomatoes and other vegetables are ripe and being eaten by many. We hope everyone is having a great gardening year.
Please take a look at some of the participants in the Greenspace Program:
Lenzi Park planting native perennials.

The estate needed someone of passion and means to allow it to weather the storm. Clarence Dillon immediately entered into negotiations to acquire the estate and requested that his Paris office continue these on his departure by ship to the United States. On board the ship during the crossing he received a telegram which read "You may acquire Chateau Haut-Brion if we act fast." His two word answer was "Act Fast!" This short and decisive response was the beginning of a long family commitment to this estate and to the wines of Bordeaux.
Clarendelle's name thus pays homage to the ancestor who brought the family to this region. In creating Clarendelle the team from Clarence Dillon Wines and their colleagues at Domaine Clarence Dillon, wish to discover and extract the best from the enormous potential and savoir-faire that this region and terroir provide. They already benefit from centuries of acquired knowledge and will aim to produce wines worthy and representative of their heritage and provenance. View all Clarendelle Wines
About Pessac-LeognanView a map of Pessac-Leognan wineries (PEH-sak lay-ohn-yawn)
One of the top appellations within Graves, Pessac-Léognan is home to the only Graves chateau listed as a first growth in the 1855 Médoc classification – Chateau Haut-Brion. In fact, praise for the chateau dates back to the days of Thomas Jefferson, when, upon visiting the chateau in 1787, he bought 125 bottles for his cellar in Virginia.
Notable Facts
The majority of wines made here are red, but Pessac-Léognan is also known for producing some of the finest dry white wines of Bordeaux. Many of the top chateau, like Chateau Haut Brion and Chateau Mission Haut Brion, produce top-quality whites alongside their red. Other Chateaux, like Smith Haut Lafite and Carbonnieux, are better known for their distinguished white wines than reds. Both colors of wine from this region have the specific tastes of the gravelly soil where it's grown.
About France - Other regionsWhen it comes to wine, France is a classic. Classic blends, grapes and styles began in the country and they still remain. Think about it - people ask for a Burgundian style Pinot Noir, they refer to wines as Bordeaux or Rhone blends - Champagne even had to pass a law to stop international wineries from putting their region on the label of all sparkling wine.
The top regions of France are: Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne, Languedoc-Roussillon, Loire, Rhone. And these regions are so diverse! It makes sense that wine regions throughout the world try to emulate their style. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah are no longer French varieties, but international varieties. They may not be the leader of cutting edge technology or value-priced wines, but there is no doubt that they are still producing wines of great quality and diversity.

I'm Dieing to update my iPhone 4 as it serves me well but I won't just yet until I know I can edit the apn settings for my mms and data to use m straight talk SIM card. I kne the talk and text will work without having to edit the cellular settings but to get data to use the Internet and iMessage I would need to set it. Not unless anyone has or knows of a way without the jailbrake or unlock. Would a gevey sim still work if I pop it in and remove it to have the cellular data screen display!?
If THIS is what they think every one was screaming for then I guess I'm just stupid because I think, for the most part, it's ugly. I dig the new home screen and how the tiles "float" but the UI is fugly IMHO. Flat, pastel ugliness. I'll continue to rock iOS but ffs, I'll cringe a bit ever time I open it up.
It never ceases to surprise me how many people actually want a beta. Unless you are a developer, why would you want beta software?
Unfortunately I doubt if one of the changes they make will make it useable on the iP4.
More info please.
Who was the phone locked too? How was it unlocked! What carrier settings are you using?
its locked to at&t. i never had it unlocked. the straight talk sim runs on at&t. at&t sims somehow hide the tab i guess.
oh and my battery life isnt any worse than on 6.1.2. but it was jailbroken with widgets and other tweaks installed. so it might be worse than stock ios 6
I just wish the map application on ios 7 will be better than ios 6. That is the only reason I am still on ios 5.

Au Hasard Balthazar
This religious fable from director Robert Bresson traces the lives of a farm girl, Marie, and her beloved pet donkey, Balthazar. The two eventually become separated, but their experiences follow strangely parallel paths. As a young woman, Marie is cruelly abused by her lover, while Balthazar suffers at the hands of a number of different owners. But their torment ultimately becomes the vehicle for their spiritual transcendence and redemption.

Harry Styles gossip, latest news, photos, and video.
Smutty Social Media, May 6, 2016
I am strangely into Michelle Williams's bangs. They shouldn't work but they do. Her bone structure and the delicate wisps of hair remind me of Winona. Congratulations to Michelle Williams on her #TonyAward Nomination, here dressed in #LouisVuitton by @nicolasghesquiere for the Meet the Nominees Press Reception in New York City. @thetonyawards Full Story
Harry's 22
True story. I was on the subway a week or so ago and three girls were waiting on the platform, huddled around a phone, holding each other, weeping. When I walked by, I saw that they were watching the One Direction History video. I looked up and caught the eye of someone who'd noticed it at the exact same time as I did. Full Story
Christmas Swift
One of my favourite Taylor Swift facts is that she grew up on a Christmas tree farm. I feel like if Mariah Carey could rewrite her birthplace, Christmas tree farm would be her second choice, next to "luxury manger", if such a thing exists. Which it can. Someone invented "glamping", didn't they? Anyway, Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris are celebrating their first Christmas together in Vail, Colorado with her family. Full Story

Harry Styles turned 21 yesterday. There was a party for him on Saturday night in LA.

Video Assumption: Taylor Swift & Harry Styles
TMZ has exclusive video from last night of Taylor Swift at the Sunset Marquis. She's in the lobby with her friends when Harry Styles approaches to greet someone in her group. I've watched it twice. I don't see them acknowledging each other. Not even a head nod. Let's play Video Assumption? It's our favourite game of drawing conclusions based on body language – not reliable but, um, in this case… pretty reliable? He's demonstrably relaxed – like, "Hey, I'm just so chill and confident and I'm going to show you to your face". Full Story

Amy Adams hosted the final episode of Saturday Night Live this weekend with some help from Kristen Wiig. One Direction was the musical guest. As per tradition, they all hit up the afterparty. And at the afterparty, he and Kristen danced to The Time Of My Life. As you can see from the two videos posted on Instagram below, he's hard to resist. Full Story

IN THE political courtroom known as the House of Representatives, the verdict at the end of four days of Julia Gillard's trial is that the Prime Minister is not guilty as charged.
She didn't answer a good many of the opposition's questions about her conduct as lawyer to her former boyfriend, Bruce Wilson, but she doesn't have to. The onus was on the opposition to make the case against her, a case strong enough that it could support a motion of censure or, more seriously, a motion of no confidence. But it did not. And the opposition knew it. Despite its inflammatory language and the blustery demands that Gillard resign, when it came to the denouement on Thursday, the opposition baulked.
The Coalition did not even attempt to move a censure motion against Gillard. Neither did it make a move to bring a motion of no confidence against her. This is an implicit admission of failure. Tony Abbott would have been wasting his time because the jury was unmoved by the case against the Prime Minister.
Who is the jury? In all the other Parliaments since the 1940s, there hasn't really been one, just partisans committed to their own side. But because this particular courtroom is constituted around a minority government, there is a jury, and it's the independent MPs who keep Labor in power. To succeed in bringing Gillard down, these are the people who have to be persuaded that there is a serious case against her.
Indeed, Rob Oakeshott last week described himself, and fellow independent Tony Windsor, as the ''moral compass'' of the Parliament. How so? They proved to be crucial in removing Peter Slipper as Speaker, and in pressing the government for a royal commission on paedophilia.
But as they listened to Tony Abbott's 15-minute case against Gillard yesterday, the ''moral compass'' didn't even twitch. From time to time, Windsor and Oakeshott joked with each other. ''The evidence trail just isn't solid,'' Oakeshott said afterwards.
Windsor said that while the opposition might have raised questions in some minds about the character of the Prime Minister, its behaviour also raised questions about the character of Tony Abbott: ''Why is he doing this?'' If the opposition revives this matter in the new year as a major event, this will become the burning question.
If Abbott and his deputy, Julie Bishop, persist in the absence of some compelling new material, it will look increasingly like the ''smear'' campaign that Gillard says it is. There is no doubt that Gillard was unprofessional in her conduct as a lawyer, and evasive in her answers as Prime Minister, but the opposition could not support its claim that she is a criminal.
The bitter exchanges were immediately followed in the House by the two leaders joining to wish Ricky Ponting well as the Parliament headed into recess, rivals united by cricket, a precursor of the summer respite.

Opal is the gemstone for those born in the month of October, but Mars scientists may claim it as the treasure of 2008. Inside the largest canyon in the whole solar system, opal minerals stretch in a pinkish cream swath, just to the right of a crater filled with dunes.
You may dream of jewelry, but this discovery has far greater value. Finding opal in the canyon means that water was on the surface of Mars about 1 billion years longer than previously thought. The long-term presence of water is essential to life as we know it. Maybe the canyon had rivers and small ponds for a few billion years. Could it have been an environment for life? Knowing that would be worth more than gold!

10.5 weeks pregnant & always cold
Hi, I am now 10.5 weeks pregnant & have been freezing cold since I found out I was pregnant. I am wanting to know what the reasons for this could be & should I be concerned as its the middle of summer. This is my first pregnancy & I've heard that most women usually feel more hot during this time.
26th January 2014 06:39 AM #2
Dear Bel888,
Some women do feel particularly cold in pregnancy.
You are right in thinking that the majority of women, however, feel hotter than usual in pregnancy. This is likely to be because of the increased blood volume in pregnancy and, because of this, some women find that they sweat more. The blood vessels also dilate more in pregnancy (in order to deal with the increased blood volume).
In some pregnant women these affects are thought to be pronounced and can actually result in them reaching a lower temperature than pre-pregnancy. For many women this is just a normal part of pregnancy for them and they have to wrap up warm.
In a minority of cases, feeling very cold in pregnancy could indicate a thyroid problem. Your doctor can organise a blood test for you in order to check this.
Warm wishes,

Skilled Nursing Facility PPS
CASE MIX PROSPECTIVE PAYMENT FOR SNFs BALANCED BUDGET ACT OF 1997:
Section 4432(a) of the Balanced Budget Act (BBA) of 1997 modified how payment is made for Medicare skilled nursing facility (SNF) services. Effective with cost reporting periods beginning on or after July 1, 1998, SNFs are no longer paid on a reasonable cost basis or through low volume prospectively determined rates, but rather on the basis of a prospective payment system (PPS). The PPS payment rates are adjusted for case mix and geographic variation in wages and cover all costs of furnishing covered SNF services (routine, ancillary, and capital-related costs).
Implementing instructions relating to coverage and physician certification/recertification are forthcoming and are not included in these sections.
The Balanced Budget Act of 1997 mandates the implementation of a per diem prospective payment system (PPS) for skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) covering all costs (routine, ancillary and capital) related to the services furnished to beneficiaries under Part A of the Medicare program. Major elements of the system include:
- Rates: Federal rates are set using allowable costs from FY 1995 cost reports. The rates also include an estimate of the cost of services which, prior to July 1, 1998, had been paid under Part B but furnished to SNF residents during a Part A covered stay. FY 1995 costs are updated to FY 1998 by a SNF market basket minus 1 percentage point for each of fiscal years 1996, 1997 and 1998. Providers which received new provider exemptions in FY 1995 are excluded from the data base. Routine cost limit exceptions payments are also excluded. The data is aggregated nationally by urban and rural area to determine standardized federal per diem rates to which case mix and wage adjustments apply.
- Case Mix Adjustment: Per diem payments for each admission are case-mix adjusted using a resident classification system (Resource Utilization Groups IV) based on data from resident assessments (MDS 3.0) and relative weights developed from staff time data.
- Geographic Adjustment: The labor portion of the federal rates is adjusted for geographic variation in wages using the hospital wage index.
- Annual Updates: Payment rates are increased each Federal fiscal year using a SNF market basket index.
- Transition: A three-year transition that blends a facility-specific payment rate with the federal case mix adjusted rate is used. The facility-specific rate includes allowable costs (from FY 1995 cost reports) including exceptions payments. Payments associated with 'new provider' exemptions are included but limited to 150 percent of the routine cost limit. It also includes an add-on for related Part B costs similar to the federal rate.
- Effective Date: The PPS system is effective for cost reporting periods beginning on or after July 1, 1998.
- For further information on the prospective payment system and its full legislative history, please refer to the document entitled "Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) Prospective Payment System (PPS) Legislative History," available via the Downloads list below.
For a one-stop resource web page focused on the informational needs and interests of Medicare Fee-for-Service (FFS) skilled nursing facilities go to the SNF Center.

Gloria Allred SLAMS Kanye West
Listen to Kanye West on iHeartRadio
Gloria Allred has some fighting words for Kanye West.
The infamous attorney is representing Daniel Ramos in his lawsuit against the rapper for his alleged airport attack.
Now, she's slamming the rapper for comments he made about her client last week.
During his appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live Kanye said, "It's not safe for you in the zoo" and told viewers that no one should ever forget he's from Chi-Town.
"Mr. West made it clear that he thinks that he has the right to attack anyone that antagonizes him by asking him a question that he does not like. He thinks that paparazzi are fair game," she told RadarOnline.
"Your remarks are shameful and add further insult to the injuries that you inflicted upon my client," she said.
"You say that you bring 'joy to the world'. I say you disgrace your profession and bring shame to your hometown of Chicago when you make reference to being from Chicago as some sort of threat."
How long until the hot-headed rapper fires back?

can u make a module out of it ?
Before we start make sure you have an up to date Kernel. You can get one by doing the following:
Net you will want the drivers. The ones i used were the RA Link Enhanced drivers. Since they are the enhanced drivers, you can capture WPA handshakes with these.Code:BT ~ / wget http://www.offensive-security.com/kernel.lzm BT ~ / lzm2dir kernel.lzm /
Now unplug and plug back in your wireless card. Once you have done that you can connect to your wireless with the following command:Code:BT ~ / wget homepages.tu-darmstadt.de/~p_larbig/wlan/rt73-k2wrlz-3.0.2.tar.bz2 BT ~ / modprobe -r rt73 BT ~ / tar -xf rt73-k2wrlz-3.0.2.tar.bz2 BT ~ / cd rt73-k2wrlz-3.0.2 BT ~ / cd Module/ BT ~ / make BT ~ / make install BT ~ / modinfo rt73 (that is to check if they were installed) BT ~ / modprobe rt73

Men's Golf Returns to Action at Wolf Run Invitational
Sept. 20, 2013
LEXINGTON, Ky. - After a fifth-place finish in the first tournament of the season, the University of Kentucky men's golf team returns to action Sept. 21-22 in Zionsville, Ind., at the Wolf Run Invitational.
The Wolf Run Golf Club has been the host site for this tournament since it opened in 2006. This will be the Wildcats' seventh appearance; while Kentucky's best finish came in 2006 when head coach Brian Craig's squad won the tournament. The course is a par-71 (35-36) layout with a total distance of 7,155 yards.
Last season at the invitational, UK finished fifth as a team, while Stephen Powers was the top individual in a tie for 15th.
"Wolf Run is possibly our team's favorite golf course of the year," Craig said. "It is simply a brilliant design and a remarkable test of golf. You can learn how to play golf on a course like Wolf Run and we are privileged to have the chance to compete on this venue. We played solid golf last week and I am looking forward to showing improvement in our second outing of the fall season."
The Wildcats are coming off a top-five performance in the season-opening tournament Sept. 6-8 at the Northern Intercollegiate. UK finished at 19-over par as a team, while junior David Snyder led the way, playing as an individual, tying for ninth at one-over par for the weekend. Powers and senior Ben Stow also claimed top 20 finishes at two-over and five-over par, respectively.
Kentucky's lineup in Indiana will be led by Snyder along with Powers, Stow, senior Cody Martin, sophomores Harrison Greenberry and Todd McDaniel.
The 54-hole stroke-play tournament will begin on Saturday at 8:30 a.m. The teams are scheduled to play 36 holes and will begin with a shotgun start. The invitational will wrap up on Sunday with the final round of 18 at 8:30 a.m. All times are Eastern.
Kentucky is one of 13 teams in the field featuring: Auburn, Illinois, Illinois State, Indiana, IUPUI, IPFW, Minnesota, Northern Illinois, Oakland, Ohio, Toledo and Wisconsin.
There will be no live scoring of the event this weekend. For more information on the University of Kentucky men's golf team please visit UKathletics.com and follow on twitter @UKmensgolf. Following the Wolf Run Invitational, UK will travel to Duluth, Ga., for the Autotrader.com Collegiate Classic held Oct. 14-15 at the Berkeley Hills Country Club.

Iraqi student builds cultural bridges
By Hannah Spicher, email@example.com, 803-777-9086
When Muaad Ibrahim first arrived at JFK airport in New York he barely understood a word of English. Now, 10 months later, he is breezing through conversations about hydraulic fracking, Skype and Gamecock football.
"I want to get tickets to Williams-Brice Stadium so that I can post photos of it on Facebook and brag to my friends back home about how much fun I'm having here," Ibrahim says.
Formerly a professor of accounting in his hometown of Tikrit, Iraq, Ibrahim came to USC in 2012 to learn English, and to eventually pursue a doctorate degree at the Moore School of Business with a dual concentration in international business and accounting.
"My country has loads of professionals, including scientists, accountants, doctors and engineers. I could get a Ph.D. in Iraq. But I have bigger dreams. I want to get the Ph.D. in English," he says.
Why is learning English so important?
"It's the international language — the great connector — even among some Middle Eastern countries. If I want to speak with someone from Turkey, for instance, I don't speak Arabic. I speak English," he says.
He also thinks it's important for staying current in his field of study.
"My mentor at University of Tikrit went to graduate school in the States. And, whenever I had specific questions about accounting he would always point to English books, not Arabic ones," says Ibrahim.
It takes a lot of guts to move halfway across the world to learn a new language. Braver still is the added challenge of studying a subject at a highly advanced level in a language that isn't your native tongue. Yet hundreds of students come to USC to do just that. Through USC's English Programs for Internationals (EPI) prospective and conditionally admitted students receive intensive, high-quality English language instruction before enrolling in USC degree programs, usually graduate ones.
International students are attracted to USC for the same reasons as domestic students: top programs, low cost of living, a beautiful and historic campus, and a welcoming, friendly climate.
"The dean of my school visited USC's campus and said it was a great, friendly, beautiful place," says Ibrahim. "I also asked my friends who were in other English Ph.D. programs for advice and they said, 'Don't go to London. The weather is dreary!' and "Don't go to Texas! It's not as nice. Go to Columbia, where is it sunny, green and beautiful,' " Ibrahim says.
Since arriving to Columbia in August 2012, Ibrahim has found numerous ways to feel at home and to stay in touch, including cooking a meal with his mom and sister over Skype and locating the best stores for halal foods.
The people in my hometown are a lot like the people here, he says. "They are friendly and watch out for each other, just like in Columbia."

But BMW covers the replacements for the first 4 years or 40,000 miles.???
I get that you want to change your filter, and good for you it is after all your car - but don't make the argument that BMW cheaps out on air filters or that "Use it for life" saves you money.
(BTW - Agree with the post - if you don't know where its at - maybe you shouldn't change it yourself. Also be careful that when you take your car in for scheduled maintenance they don't check the air filter and ding you for non-oem)
Now can can anyone tell this guy where he can find the air filter?

This is a bit long but is from a "formulator" (lubrication engineer). The whole thread is on the BITOG forum under air filters - http://www.bobistheoilguy.com/forums...Number=2886504.
Metro, I can't point you to anything specific with regards to warranties but I can point out some facts of life.
An oiled cotton gauze filter (OCG), and K&N is only one manufacturer of them, is at the low end of the efficiency scale amongst the available filters, both OEM and aftermarket (excluding offshore, noname junk) . It doesn't fall below the "industry standard" of about 97 percent on coarse test dust (in fact most OCG will show about 98+). It's likely a K&N (which is probably the best of the OCG filters out there) would meet the minimum standard for efficiency required by most vehicle and engine manufacturers, outside of commercial agricultural and heavy duty applications. Remember... minimum standard.
So yes, you can safely say OCG filters are "adequate" in the efficiency department but they are nowhere near the top of the food chain there. In general, they are chosen for their high flow rates and longevity. This is why they are synonymous with performance engines. Performance engines are usually operated in fairly clean environments, because they are fun vehicles rather than daily drivers or workers, or they are used where the rigors of racing will overcome the engine long before the increased wear from less-than-stellar filtration efficiency. And if a vehicle operates in what is largely a clean-air venue, air filter efficiency is less an issue.
IMO, OCG filters are a legacy product from the days when OE air filter efficiency was generally low, flow rates were abysmal (it was the housing design as much as the elements) and when you used the old filters in dusty environments, they plugged up quickly. A K&N was a Godsend in that situation. You got an air filter that let your engine actually BREATHE, it held a lot of dirt, plus the efficiency was about the same as the filter you replaced and often better. What was not to like! You were an idiot not to glom on!
Air filter technology has marched well past those days. The OEM are largely designing filter systems that have adequate if not superior airflow to more than meet the engine's needs (there are exceptions, of course). Average efficiency is 96-97% plus on FINE test dust (99+ on coarse) and capacity has doubled or tripled versus the olden days. In that environment, it's harder for a OCG filter to compete based on the facts but legend and lore are carrying them beyond their era a bit.
With any engine, cleaner air is best from the wear standpoint as the dirt that comes in from the intake is the worst for the engine and it can begin a chain reaction of wear... wear begets wear. And you want a filter that gets out a lot of the fines because the fines are the bits that get between the rings and cylinder the easiest, causes damage there and then gets into the oil and because these fines (1-20 um) are usually too small to be caught by the oil filter in large numbers, so they continue to circulate and cause wear.
In the past decade or so, air filter rating has been standardized to the ISO 5011 protocol but remember one important fact... the test allows the use of EITHER coarse or fine test dust. In evaluating filters, you need to know which. A filter that shows 98 percent on coarse will show 92-94 percent on fine. If you see a rating and it doesn't specify which, assume coarse because those are the best braggin' numbers. And yes, you can find filters that will produce 99+ percent on FINE and those are the best choices for engine longevity. Remember that a finer filter may have a shorter service life, but the modern synthetic media filters can combine high capacity with high efficiency. Short service life is more an issue with high efficiency cellulose media filters but even then, this can be accounted for by an increase in media (more pleats) or a larger filter (if the package size will permit... i.e. more underhood room for a larger filter).
So, I guess the question you have to ask yourself... and I won't call you a punk like DIrty Harry might... what is it you want to achieve? If it's a stock vehicle used as transportation, what's the advantage to likely taking a hit in the efficiency department? If it's a high performance car and you are considering an improvement for performance sake, the OCG choice is nearer the mark but consider that many of the dry aftermarket elements, like the one you mentioned, usually have efficiency superior to OCG but with virtually equal flow rates per square inch of media and if they don't, they just engineer MORE media in the filter to make it so. I could quote chapter and verse on some of the media I've looked at, but since I've done all that before, I'll suggest you just look back at my past posts.
Final thoughts here. I was given a chart by an engineer at Parker filtration that illustrates very well the effects of low vs high efficiency air filtration.
For Every 10 Pounds of Dust Drawn Into the Air Filter Inlet:
99.95% 0.005 lbs.
99% 0.10 lbs.
95% 0.50 lbs.
90% 1.0 lbs.

Good inputs here. "Air filter upgrades" are all pretty much scams.
But a perfect money maker at that.... just look at all the companies vying for your $$$.
Here is some real data on K&N: http://www.billswebspace.com/AirFilterTest.htm
Unfortunately for the "My brother swears by it crowd" it likely requires WAY too much critical thinking....
Keep it as simple as possible...but no simpler.
Wow those are some interesting graphs and results, thanks for posting !!!

When you look at an ISO 5011 done by a test house, typically they require that the entire report be published. Whereas filter vendors just run their in house tests, maybe don't specify media size, and publish whatever they need to deflect criticism.
People like to think there is some 'magic' solution to 'flow/vs/filtration. there really isn't. Yes, you can deflect the curve one way or the other, just a bit, but not appreciably, and not for 10k, 20k, 50k miles. (ie 'lifetime'). And remember, race cars are rebuilt every year- don't buy a filter because they use them on race cars....
Keep it as simple as possible...but no simpler.
m6pwr and ard,
Thank you guys for the detailed information that you've given us. I will remove my K&N filter today. For years I've been under the impression that the K&N filters were one of the best filters in the market and I was terribly wrong.
Thanks again

Almost fell out of me chair!
Dont often get that kind of response.
Here is a thought:
As you can see from filter performance curves, the resistance of a filter goes up as it loads with dirt- hence, over a lifetime, your airflow is very good when new, and drops until you finally replace it.
My recommendation to people who are seeking the best airflow, would be to just replace the air filter more often! I do oil filters at 2x the BMW rate, and replace the air filter every other oil change. Easy Peasy. You'll always be on the 'good half' of the dirt loading curve!
Keep it as simple as possible...but no simpler.
+1. I'm taking out my K and N as well. I don't want it to mess up the air sensor with its oil either. Good thing I kept the original. :-)
Thanks again for the info.

Dinan only warrants consequent failures caused by the Dinan performance remap (let the arguments begin). For example, an auto tranny that appears to fail because of the significant increase in torque produced by the tune (let the arguments begin). The Dinan warranty mirrors the BMW as far as time/miles: 4yrs, 50k mi. I'm not familiar with other aftermarket tuners, but do any of them warrant consequent failures caused by their mods?

I used an OCG filter on my G35 for some time. In conjunction with a 350Z intake the noise was beautiful. No noticeable power gain but prolly got a little. Also kept Jiffy Lube from trying to sell me new filters .
I later found that the OE air filter is oiled and realized it is a better choice overall. Reinstalled the OE filter (and started using dealer for oil change- same price and better coffee than Jiffy Lube).
Currently trusting OE on the F10 hooptie. It looks well engineered and agree with the advice in this thread. Very little intake noise fun anyway, hybrid frequently shutting down the ICE.

Top tips
Apart from that nightly bedtime story, what else can you do to make sure your child gets off to a good start, gains independence and enjoys reading? There are lots of simple things you can do at home to help. Take a look at these top tips and try out some of the ideas to see what works well in your home. Why not start by listening to Julia Donaldson's top tips for reading with your child?
Younger readers 3-7 year olds
It's good to share
1. Talk together
Talking about words and pictures is really important for building up a store of vocabulary and confidence – and it's fun too. The words may be in the street, in a book, on-screen or on your ketchup bottle; it really doesn't matter so long as you talk about them together.
2. Read together
There is something very magical about sharing a book with a child. Just 5-10 minutes at bedtime, bath time or quiet time really does help to hook them in. And even your 7 year old will still enjoy the sharing if it's on offer...
3. Remember when...
Compare events in stories or information books with things you've done together, so your child starts to make connections between these things and their own experiences: 'That's just like when we went to Thorpe Park. Do you remember? Dad was scared...'
4. Sing together
Even if it's not your forte, just sing. Nursery rhymes and songs for your youngest and chart-topping songs you hear on the radio for your 6-7 year old all count – and grandparents can contribute some golden oldies too!
5. New books but old favourites too
You'll notice that your child will want to revisit an old favourite over and over again and that's great (although may be not after the 64th time). But it's also important to build confidence by reading lots of different books at the same reading level too, and continue to re-read earlier books so that you aren't pushing up the difficulty of the read too quickly and causing frustration (to be avoided at all cost as your child won't make progress if anxious).
Skill up...
1. Use phonics first...
Help your child to learn phonic sounds as pure sounds – sss not suh. Be aware that some sounds, like sh in shop is one sound but two letters. When your child can break a word into its sounds to read it, then encourage them to write it out too.
Want to know more about phonics?
Not sure how to pronounce the sounds?
2. Play games...
Use phonic flashcards to help children to read letter sounds and blend them together to read words. Use flashcards that encourage play to help your child to learn tricky words by sight. Tricky words are those words that cannot be worked out by sounding out – like 'said'.
Want more fun ideas to try?
3. Listen to your child practise reading
It's really important that your child reads aloud to you. Reading from a levelled reading scheme book, usually one that has come home from school, means there is built-in progression so your child can steadily get more confident as they move through the reading scheme. Most children will start with fully decodable phonic books.
Want to know more about levelled reading books?
4. Use book talk
Talking about stories and using story language helps to tune your child into reading. Talk about the author, illustrator, cover, the beginning, the end, words, sentences, features on the page, for example speech bubbles and pictures – it's 'book talk'.
5. Check understanding
Use the pictures to help understanding, but also show your child how you might be able to predict what might happen next in a story from the words and pictures. Try to guess the ending! What clues were there?
And most importantly, enjoy what you do together and give loads of encouragement because it really works. Remember too much pressure could put your child off.
Older readers 7-11 year olds
Sharing reading (of all kinds)
1. Talk together
Older children continue to need opportunities to talk with you about what they are reading or their reading interests. They may also be interested in what you are reading. Talking gives you both a chance to share and recommend.
2. Read together
There is never an age when this is not an enjoyable and useful way to spend 10 minutes a day – even your 11 year old will still enjoy the sharing opportunity if it's on offer. It's a great idea to get your older children to read with younger brothers and sisters too.
3. Revisiting favourites
It's important for children to know that it's OK to revisit old favourites and memories – even if this may seem like 'easy reading' – there's no mad rush to keep moving on, and we all like the comfort of a favourite book sometimes. Comparing and sharing memories of real life and books will help your child to develop empathy.
4. Sing together
Why not? Rhythm, rhyme, raps, advertising jingles or the latest top-rated downloadable track can all help the older reader to appreciate and use the patterns of language they hear in both their speech and writing.
5. Making choices
It's important to still visit book shops, libraries and places where your child can browse and chat with you about their interests. They'll start to prefer certain authors or series, or types of reading such as comics, magazines or websites, and with your encouragement, they can learn to make choices for themselves too.
Want help finding a book?
Developing skills
1. Phonics and spelling
Children will still need to use their phonic skills to tackle new or unknown words but they will also be learning about spelling patterns and rules, too, so that they have a wider range of tools to use when they get stuck.
Want to know more about phonics?
2. Play Games
Many games are really useful for developing the skills that children need as developing readers. You probably already have a host of really useful games in the cupboard, so dig out the Scrabble, Bananagrams, Boggle or a crossword, to name just a few.
Want more fun ideas to try?
3. Listen to your child reading
It's still really important that your child continues to read aloud to you and this may or may not be from levelled books now, depending on how well their reading is coming along. The emphasis will be on reading fluently and with expression, understanding more complex plots and broadening their vocabulary as well as building an understanding of how punctuation and grammar are used.
Want to know more about levelled reading books?
4. Use book talk
Continue to talk about reading in its widest sense (stories, favourite authors and illustrators, series, different types of books including poetry, plays, non-fiction and reference materials, comics and magazines). Join book clubs and online forums to discover the wider reading community.
5. Check understanding
Whatever your child is reading it's good to check that they are grasping the deeper levels of meaning (why things happen or how things work). Ask them to tell you about what they are reading, retell parts of the story, explain a specific section or make connections. Don't forget to explore words and vocabulary with your child too, using dictionaries in print or online.
And most importantly, continue to enjoy what you do together, give lots of encouragement and expand the reading experience to keep your child switched on. Don't forget – if they are reading something they are not enjoying, it's OK to read something else. Reading has really got to be a pleasant experience if you want your child to keep reading.

From HaskellWiki
The diagrams library provides an embedded domain-specific language (EDSL) for creating simple pictures and diagrams in Haskell
1 Rewrite
1.1 Core DSL
- graphical primitives
- path (moveTo, lineTo, cubic bezier, quadratic bezier, arcTo, etc)
- boolean operations of paths
- text
- circle
- ellipse
- rectangle
- polygon
- polyline
- imho there should be primitive shape typeclass, so that shapes like circles and rectangles have a "convertToPath" function. Backends like SVG can then choose to convert shapes like a rectangle to a polygon or to a SVG rectangle

1.3 Input/Output
Many Haskell graphic libraries are tied to a specific rendering backend (Cairo, OpenGL, libGD etc) which makes collaboration and reuse of code and data structures very hard or impossible.
Also some dependencies are hard to fulfill. Cairo is very difficult to install on Mac OS 10.6. If you just need to generate PDF diagrams, you could choose the pure HPDF library where e.g. Hieroglyph can not be installed because of its Cairo dependence.
1.3.1 Output
- interactive drawing via Cairo
- PDF export via pure HPDF
- EPS export
- SWF export
- LaTeX export
- exotic backends
- generate Java2d or Processing source code
1.3.2 Input
- pure Haskell PNG import via pngload

Hall of Fame June 8
2013 Hall of Fame June 8
The sports of basketball, field hockey, soccer, tennis and wrestling will be represented at the 2013 Rider Athletics Hall of Fame ceremony June 8.
First-year ballot selections Jerry Johnson '05 of the basketball team and Christina Ang '05 of the field hockey team will be joined by wrestler Derek Jenkins '03, basketball player Chuck Simon '77 and soccer/tennis star from the 1990s Matt Miles '06 as 2013 inductees.
"Every year the Hall of Fame Committee works very hard in selecting the best nominees for this prestigious athletic honor," said Don Harnum, Rider Director of Athletics. "Once again they did an outstanding job as all of our honorees are very well accomplished in their respective sports."
Johnson, of Lancaster, PA, graduated second in career scoring at Rider as just the ninth New Jersey Division I player to compile 2,000 career points. A three-time First Team All-Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference selection, Johnson averaged 17.6 points per game for his career while graduating fifth in career assists. Johnson holds the Rider single-season record with 102 three-point field goals.
Ang, of Ocean City, NJ, graduated with Rider records for goals in a season (21, sixth in the nation that year), goals in a career (66) and points in a career (144). A two-time Northeast Conference Player of the Year, Ang was also the NEC Tournament MVP as a sophomore and was on the NEC All-Tournament team again as a senior. The first Bronc to be invited to play in the National Field Hockey All-Star Game, Ang was twice a Second Team All-Region selection and was a First Team All-Region pick as a senior.
Ang and Johnson shared the 2005 Rider Athlete of the Year award.
Jenkins, of Orefield, PA, was the Rider Athlete of the Year in 2003 after earning the Most Outstanding Wrestler Award at the Colonial Athletic Association Championships. One of only three Rider wrestlers to qualify for Nationals all four years, Jenkins was the sixth Bronc to compile 100 (110) career wins.
Simon, of Toms River, NJ, was the Rider career rebound record holder for 30 years (874) until it was broken by current NBA player Jason Thompson '08. Simon also graduated seventh in career scoring (1,096) at Rider. A four-year starter, Simon averaged 10.9 points and 8.7 rebounds per game for his career.
Miles, of Williamstown, NJ, led the Rider soccer team in scoring all four years, including a Rider-record 18 goals and 42 points as a senior when he was named the NEC and the New Jersey Soccer Player of the Year. An outstanding athlete, Miles also played first singles for the Rider tennis team in the spring.
Also at the Hall of Fame ceremony the Clair Bee Outstanding Team Achievement Award will be presented to the 1997 and 1998 men's soccer teams, who won back-to-back MAAC Championships and NCAA Play-In games to advance to the NCAA Championship Tournaments. The 1998 team was ranked 15th in the nation.

Judge Leaving "Idol" - 2 Finalists Named!
All of the judges on American Idol could be out following this season, which could mean next week. It's all speculation right now, but the show's reported its lowest ratings ever and there's apparently no love lost between some of the judges.
Mariah Carey is on the outs with both Nicki Minaj and Randy Jackson. She's just dumped Randy as her manager and he's reportedly the reason she got the $18 million Idol gig. Yeah, $18 million!
Randy Jackson is definitely Not returning. The only original judge remaining said, "I am very proud of how we forever changed television and the music industry. It's been a life changing opportunity, but I am looking forward to focusing on my company Dream Merchant 21 and other business ventures."
Keith Urban served as a judge this season, but we expect he'll be more than happy to move on. He has new music and a tour on the way.
The FINALISTS: The 12th season of American Idol wraps up next week. Vying for the title will be: Kree Harrison and Candice Glover.
A surprised Kree told reporters afterwards, "I bought suitcases. I knew eventually I would go home and I really thought tonight was it. I can't even believe it. I feel so thankful that people believe in me enough to give me the opportunity to sing again."

Im really sorry to heard that..... but i guess there's nothing else i can do for you guys to belive me.......
no ones gonna help you cause no one believes your story.
Until they become conscious they will never rebel, and until after they have rebelled they cannot become conscious...
Im really sorry to heard that..... but i guess there's nothing else i can do for you guys to belive me.......
I was having exactly the same issue as you described (which is how I came across this thread). I was trying with an iwl3945 wireless card and the router is a Linksys WRT54GS.
The "aireplay-ng -9" test showed that injection was working with a high percentage. However during the actual replay attack (ARP or interactive) the AP never accepted the injected packets. MAC filtering was off and I could connect to the AP _with_ the WEP key, so I know the router configuration was ok.
Anyway, I had a Linksys wireless card on another computer (which was the victim) and I tried using that to perform the replay attack. This was a Broadcom-based card and following exactly the same steps, the 'real' injection began working.
I know that BT 4 is supposed to include the proper drivers for the iwl3945 (yes, I used the airmon-ng start wlan0 command) but the _only_ difference between the working and non-working ARP attack was the wireless card used.
If you can find an wireless card that _isn't_ an iwl3945, could you try that to see if you have any success? I haven't had time to try any different drivers for the iwl3945, nor have I looked into the difference between the -9 test and 'real' packet injection.
If anyone can shed some light as to how the -9 injection test can show success but real packet injection fails, I would be grateful for this information. I have also checked with tcpdump that the association is successful and that I remain associated during the attack.
Thanks to everyone for providing so much information here.
I keep trying with my Comtrend HG 536 but no success.... i will try the -9 test to check wath output i get, but i never made it to inject any packet......
I *think* that maybe the driver is not properly patched...... could it be?
I have a problem with 3945abg too. The traffic in a network created independently, from other computer. It is written, that many packages are collected ( 1 500 000) - for WEP, but the key does not give.
Aireeplay-ng -3 too does illusion of work (packages start to increase quickly approximately in 5 minutes after start), but really packages does not add.
Please help.
Sorry my Englisch. Кто-то говорит по-русски?
While I appreciate the desire to prevent those with improper motive, there are still those of us without those intentions who could use some help with this
I'm prepared to use the old RAW method if necessary but many posters have made it clear that this is an antiquated process and shouldn't be used.
Using the 3945abg card, it appears that I have great success running the -9 packet injection test. However, I've left my pen-testing laptop running all night long with the aireplay -3 command and, after 22 HOURS, I've barely cracked 14000 data packets. Everyone that I read who actually uses functional injection has that in a matter of minutes if not seconds.
I could really use some guidance in this. I'm relatively new to computer security and it's become my de facto job (on top of all my other responsibilities) so if someone could let me know what I am doing incorrectly or what settings I'm missing, that would be great.
You're more than welcome to PM me if you don't want to discuss it in the forum but I've been searching for the better part of 3 hours to correct this issue and can't seem to make it happen.
All help is appreciated.
I have this card as well and have had problems with it as well. But read this link to get a better understanding. Good luck. I just bought the AWUS036h and it works like a charm.
ipw3945 [Aircrack-ng]
The enemy is no longer ignorance - It is vigilance
I have one in a Dell Latitude D830 laptop. The ipwraw driver in BackTrack3 worked fine, but I'm also running into troubles with the iwl3945 drivers in BackTrack4 when it comes to injection.
I get the feeling it does work upto some point (fake authentication or -9 for instance), but as soon as you start to inject alot of packets (arp attack) it starts failing. Like it can't handle the burst of packets properly or something.
When I check dmesg after a aireplay -3 run i'm seeing alot of this:
__ratelimit: 431 callbacks suppressed
hpet1: lost 1 rtc interrupts
hpet1: lost 1 rtc interrupts
hpet1: lost 1 rtc interrupts
hpet1: lost 1 rtc interrupts
hpet1: lost 1 rtc interrupts
hpet1: lost 1 rtc interrupts
hpet1: lost 1 rtc interrupts
hpet1: lost 1 rtc interrupts
hpet1: lost 1 rtc interrupts
hpet1: lost 1 rtc interrupts
__ratelimit: 500 callbacks suppressed
hpet1: lost 1 rtc interrupts
hpet1: lost 1 rtc interrupts
hpet1: lost 1 rtc interrupts
hpet1: lost 1 rtc interrupts
That doesnt seem quite right does it? Can someone else with injection problems confirm they are also seeing these kernal messages?
I'm thinking of trying to build and use the ipwraw driver again as long as there is no solution to this.
My wifi-card 3945abg doesn't work with Backtrack 4 final, it doesn't detect it. First it actally did work, but after running these update commands it's no longer working:
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
apt-get dist-upgrade
I can se the card when I type the following command: dmesg
Then it says:
iwl3945: probe of 0000:0b:00.0: failed with error -5
I'm running the latest version of Backtrack 4 final as a dual boot at my hard drive. Kernel-version: 220.127.116.11
Do I have to update the drivers manually after running the update-commands, or how can I solve this?
The funny thing is that the card is detected if I make a fresh boot of Backtrack 4 with my ethernet-cable plugged in (wired connection). What's wrong?
This is maybe a wrong thread for this. If so, sorry.
I'm a big Linux newb, trying to learn through some interesting projects.
Thanks for the help in advance.

Have you had any luck with your wireless? It's not picking mine up at all. I need to check my wired to see if I get anywhere on that one. I gave up and ordered an alpha usb setup to get up and running. LMK
I seem to be having some issues to get my wired NIC (ar8132 chipset) up and running.
any time I try to boot the nic up (running dhclient, ifconfig eth0 up, etc. etc.) much to my dismay, I start getting the flowing error streamed to the shell (repetitively)
and this error loops until I bring down the interfaceCode:irq event 28: bogus return value f8101600 handlers: [<f80caa30>] (atl1c_intr+0x0/0x610 atl1e])
Googling and a search of these forums hasn't rendered anything of consequence, if somebody's networking-fu is greater than mine, I would greatly appreciate the assistance.
Have you had any luck with your wireless? It's not picking mine up at all. I need to check my wired to see if I get anywhere on that one. I gave up and ordered an alpha usb setup to get up and running. LMK
so are you running off a live cd/vmware/usb/hdd install? Have you tried your wired interface in windows possibly?
and can you start up networking and connect to the wired through wicd?
waiting for your response
Wielder of the spoon of doom
Summercon, Toorcon, Defcon, Bsides, Derbycon, Shmoocon oh my
Come hang out with hackers on twitter @gunrunr556
The current state of my backtrack install is wireless is fully functional, and wired is completely dead (bt doesnt even recognize eth0)
Now I cant remember exactaly how i got to this point (as with most troubleshooting, you just keep trying things untill it works, and then youa rent really sure which thing or combination of things fixed it, you just know it works!)
but the first bet would be to upgrade to the most recent avaiable kernel ( using the tutorial below, mind you there are some typos)
BackTrack 4 Pre Final Kernel Update
and see where that gets you (and report back :-) )
I can not get wireless working can you provide some directions as to how you got it working?
I'm in the same boat as Duke with the AR8132 chipset and no wired connection. But, I was able to get the wireless up and running by doing the following:
(For this method I had access to another computer with a connection, and used a USB key to move the files I needed over to my netbook. I am running UNE 10.04)
1. Go to Ubuntu -- Ubuntu Packages Search
2. Click on Lucid > Development > Download linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic (126.96.36.199.25) - File will be: linux-backports-modules-wireless-2.6.32-24-generic_2.6.32-24.17_i386.deb.
3. Go back to Ubuntu -- Ubuntu Packages Search.
4. Click on Lucid-Updates > Development > Download linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic (220.127.116.11.25) - File will be: linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic_2-126.96.36.199.25_i386.deb
5. Move the downloaded .deb files onto your netbook desktop. Double click on each package in turn and Package Installer should automatically launch. Click install. package. Note: If the Installer tells you that a dependancy is missing you can a) download it from the same package website or b) find it on your install disk/usb under pool/main/(corresponding first letter of file name)/(file name).
6. After installing these two packages restart and your wireless should be recognized.
Post how you make out. Have you had any success getting your wired connection working Duke?

"Ive used a few other suppressors including the blackside. This is by far the best one ive ever used. I get nothing but compliments on it. with a 1/4 twist you can turn your cqb legnth rifle into a field legnth and all you have to do is change your inner barrel size. The finish matches a basic black metal gun perfectly. The flash hider by itself is a good look flash hider as well. 5 second barrel extension assembly/disassembly or a 15-20 second screw on/off barrel extension? no brainer get this you wont be dissapointed
by Jacob H. on 01/28/2011
"good length. looks good. very well-constructed. at first i didn't think the suppressor fit right over the flash-hider, but then i found out that you have to press it in and twist. for the price, i don't think i've seen a better one than this.
by David W S. on 01/05/2011
"just got mine in today. its pretty awesome. real steel construction. flash hider screws rite onto the gun and the suppressor goes on and with a quarter turn is locked in place. no wobbling mo movement. very solid. love it. worth every penny.
by Brent H. on 03/31/2009
"The term "Barrel Extension" refers to your option of concealing a longer inner barrel inside of this supressor. I.E. you attach this to a G36C and get a new tighbore barrel that is 7 inches longer than the stock barrel and use the supressor to hide the extra barrel.
This particular model will attach to ANY Counter-Clockwise 14mm threading.

"I got my in last week it looks sweet on my mp5. It as a good weight to it too. The flashhider went right over the one on my gun, so instal only took like 2 or 3 min. If your looking for a supressor this one is gaert.

"will this fit my jg s-system? So thanks dueces evike is a great store
by allan r. on 01/01/2009
"first of all this comes with the flash hider to replace with the old one. this silencer has 2 notches cut out of it so that when you attach it you only have to turn it to lock it in place. with out the flash hider it wont lock and will just fall off in the woods. NO THIS IS NOT MADE FOR ANY OTHER FLASH HIDER BUT THE ONE IT COMES WITH THAT IS WHY IT SAYS SILENCER ANS FLASH HIDER
by Heather M. on 11/29/2008
"Hey will this fit an MP5 A5 RAS? or will I have to buy a barel extension.

"alrighty, I ordered this with my Type 96 maruzen and 1st of all, the silencer works great, both the flashhider and the G5 look awsome and its really nifty how they fit together. 2nd of all, for all those who might just be also looking at ordering this with their type 96, the inside part of the silencer has to be able to fit over the barel of the gun that you are using, so for us snipers and guns with wider barel diameters this is a problem, the silencer cant lock onto the flash hider. what I did was take a toothpaste cap and cut of the end to make less thread space and it worked pretty well. yes, I did try using washers. im not a retard. the washers turned out to be much larger than the barell too. however after screwing around with it, i found a hex screw on the side of the flash hider that stops the flashider from moving up and down the thread. PERFECT,. almost.... Im keeping my toothpaste cap spacer on though, so it will provide extra support and prevent the screw from breaking (the screw is minscule). But if you dont have this problem of large barel diameter, its a great silencer, sorry this was so long.

Brevard, N.C. - Chelsi Mallory hit a walk-off single in the ninth inning to secure a 1-0 win for the Tornados before they fell 7-5 in the second game, splitting with Wingate University on Senior Day.
The Tornados are now 17-20 overall and 5-7 in the conference, while Wingate is now 31-11 and 6-6 in the SAC.
Four seniors, Kristina Clayton, Jennifer Gift, Liz Houser, and Rachel Montgomery, were honored in between games today for all of their accomplishments on and off the softball field.
Game 1: Brevard 1, Wingate 0
Box Score
Martika Elmore shut out the Bulldogs through nine innings, boosting her record to 13-10. Elmore, who is ranked fifth in the nation in strikeouts per inning and tenth in total strikeouts, struck out 12 batters while giving up five hits.
Mallory's walk-off single and Nicole Heusel's double to leftfield in the third inning accounted for the only two Brevard hits in the game.
Brevard's ninth inning win begin when Heusel was placed on second as the extra-innings runner for Brevard, and then was successfully bunted to third base by a Clayton sacrifice bunt. Mallory, and is now ranked fifth in the nation for doubles per inning, followed with her 18th double of the season for the victory.
Game 2: Wingate 7, Brevard 5
Box Score
Heusel and Brittany Jones each added two RBI for the Tornados in game two, but Brevard, onca again, tallied just two hits to the Bulldogs' 11.
Six of those hits came in the first inning off of Liz Houser, as the Bulldogs scored six runs, on six hits and two miscues by Brevard's infield.
Brevard posted their first runs of the game in the second inning, helped out by three Wingate errors. Kayla Dorsey earned an RBI when pitcher, Allison Smith overthrew first base allowing Jennifer Gift to score. Heusel's two RBI single through the right side followed, scoring Becca Curlee and Dorsey.
Another Mallory double, to leadoff of the third inning, sparked a two run inning for Brevard. Mallory, along with Sarah Carlos, scored after Jones grounded out to the shortstop and the first baseman, Brittany Loudermilt, made a throwing error.
Wingate would add just one more run on a Loudermilt homerun to right field. However, Blankenship who came in to relieve Smith, shut down the Tornados in the final innings handing Brevard and Houser the 7-5 loss.
The Tornados return to action on Wednesday, April 14 when they travel to Carson-Newman for a doubleheader beginning at 2 p.m.
