Trash movie poster. |
Joe Dallesandro starred in Andy Warhol movies and graced the cover of the first Smiths record.
As for the cover of The Rolling Stones' 1971 Sticky Fingers album, the one with the crotch and moveable zipper? That's him too. (Well, probably. Official word has never come down, but Dallesandro is sure of it).
His greatest musical immortalization, however, came courtesy of Lou Reed, who sung about him and his Factory peers in "Walk on The Wild Side."
"Little Joe never once gave it away/ Everybody had to pay and pay/ A hustle here and a hustle there/ New York City is the place where they said/ ?Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side/ I said hey Joe, take a walk on the wild side"

Dallesandro's charisma still resonates with art-minded men and women today. "Little Joe" as he was called, was the pretty boy meets bad boy, naïve in some ways and complex in others. The films Trash, Flesh and Heat a seductive, manly mojo that artists have tried to capture ever since.
Those three movies comprise the Paul Morrissey-directed, Warhol-produced art film trilogy, and will be screened this weekend at the Hollywood Forever Cemetary. Dallesandro will be on hand to speak. He talked to us ahead of the screenings:
On the films:
Paul Morrissey kinda became my mentor, and anything I didn't understand about film, he would teach me. My idea of film was begin, middle and end. But these were different. Paul said I was good at it. I believed he was telling me the truth. It was all mainly improvised. There were no scripts. Paul would give us a basic storyline and we'd improvise around that. I didn't know what these movies would become, but I respected the people involved... If I had concern about taking my clothes off, Paul would say, 'Its' not that kind of movie Joe. These movies are going to be shown in museums.'
Sticky Fingers album cover
Andy Warhol
On his relationship with Andy Warhol:
I was closer with Paul. Andy and me were more... you know I was around The Factory to make sure the bad guys didn't come in. I was the tough guy that sent people away. He didn't have a thing for me. It was more - I worked for them and that was it. I never even knew that Andy wore a wig on his head. We were around each other all the time but I just never thought about it. One day I went to see him and someone said Andy wasn't seeing anybody becuase he didn't have his hair on.
These days, Paul says negative things about Andy and he doesn't want him connected to the films at all. It's just weird. Andy wasn't there much in the making. You know, we made these movies very quickly. Flesh took us two days. Trash was a couple weekends. But Andy would show up once or twice just to see what was going on and what people were doing. He was like an audience for us.
On Lou Reed:
I didn't have any relationship with Lou back then. We hadn't met during that time. We never talked. What happened was Lou wanted to have his own career and get away from the Velvets. Paul suggested he do a song about the people in the Factory and in his movies. So Lou watched Flesh. He saw some of the people at Max's Kansas City too. He sat down and wrote "Walk on the Wild Side" about us. But it was the character he wrote about. Not me.
The Smiths 1984 debut (taken from the film Flesh) |
On this album covers: Sticky Fingers & The Smiths debut:
The Stones cover is from some polaroids that Andy had taken. I'm not sure Andy even knew which photo he chose. Or that it was me. Someone thought that would be a good one for the cover. I knew it was me. I know it is me. I've seem myself, and I've seen myself photographed down there. I know how I photograph. Those were my jeans. Levis. The inside is not me. Different person completely. We've had a lot of people from the Factory say it's them. There been some debate. I don't know how it was done - if Andy just shot the crotch or if it was from a full length cropped... . but I know I recognize that square on my body. (Laughs). The Smiths album cover is from the movie Flesh. They just took an image from it. Apparently, the band were fans of the movie. I've met them but I don't know more than that.
On being on the cover of Rolling Stone and his private life:
They did a story about me living in the Village, and life with my wife. There's a picture [on the cover] of me holding my son. I didn't go to too many of the big, crazy social Factory parties. I think Paul recognized I might have a problem with drinking at a couple of the early parties, so he would tell me I wasn't allowed to drink. If I couldn't drink I didn't want to go to. I was at the Factory a lot, but more in the day, creating, not in the night going crazy. I was very young. I just had to trust the people I was learning from. I have no regrets.

Acute Coronary Syndromes
This book has been written with the intention of providing an up-to-the minute review of acute coronary syndromes. Atherosclerotic coronary disease is still a leading cause of death within developed countries and not surprisingly, is significantly rising in others. Over the past decade the treatment of these syndromes has changed dramatically. The introduction of novel therapies has impacted the outcomes and surviving rates in such a way that the medical community need to be up to date almost on a "daily bases". It is hoped that this book will provide a timely update on acute coronary syndromes and prove to be an invaluable resource for practitioners seeking new and innovative ways to deliver the best possible care to their patients.

Velocity Diet To 10/10 Transformation
Pretty solid day today, deff. felt like i had tons of energy, sorness?? not too much of an issue. Loving the food intake, here's a log of every damn thing i consumed today:
Total water intake estimation 1.5 to 2 gallons
7:15 a.m.
1.5 scoops of whey/ mixed in with a cup of blueberries
2 tbs. of acai berries
2 tsp. of fish ol'
3 caps of greens plus
3 grams of beta alanine
cup of stir fried veggies covered in seasons
9 am
Spike shooter to wake my arse up
10:30ish am
8 ounces of skim colby cheese
1 pm *CHEAT MEAL!* (number 2 of 3 for the week)
12 inch ham sub, on wheat, all the fixings
no cheese, no oils, just vinigar, mustard, and seasonings
3:30 pm
2 handful mixed nuts
6:30 pm
cup of strawberries/rasberries,
stir fry veggies (same as breakfast)
2 teaspoons of fish ol'
2 tbs. of acai berries
8 pm
bout 1.5 liters of water with 2 tbs. of glycerine
9pm (preworkout)
30 grams of whey, 1/2 banana, 10 grams of bcaa, 5 grams of creatine mono., beta alanine, some glutamine
10:15 (post workout)
same as pre, minus the creatine, and beta alanine
before i go to sleep (PENDING)
40 grams of dark choco.
10 grams of BCAA
Now for the workout: word of advice, glycerine is not a good idea when your hittin' your back hard like a workout today,
I had the worst back pumps almost as bad as superdrol pumps ouch!
SupA sets! 60 sec rest, 5x8
A1 Wide Grip Pullups = not a problem
A2 Reverse Lunges = again, pumps in the lower back, not a prob.
B1 DB Push Press = i dont use a belt, i dont believe in them, feeling some indrect work on the erctors haha
B2 Single Legged Deads! = Alert! Alert! the pumps got rediculous
Overall, solid workout, im just not gunna run glycerine on days where im gettin a lot of work on the lower back -
Damn, can't wait to get some to try out. Beeing flat is my biggest problem on this AD. GMS and my stomach just can't agree
Serious Nutrition Solutions Representative
Guys as i mentioned earlier, i love planning ahead, I have critqued, and reserached and found to what i believe a great program for a clean bulk for the summer it lasts 14 weeks, check it out!
MY 14 week summer plan for maxium hypertrophy/strength - 02-21-2008, 08:57 AM
Thanks for all the information! I actually bought the Muscle Revolution book from T-nation last night ( I wanted a hard cover not an ebook )
Was this the Nutrient Timing book you spoke of:
Nutrient Timing : The Future of Sports Nutrition
by John Ivy, Robert Portman, Robert Portman
I have a Barnes and Nobles gift card and if it is I figure I can pick it up using that.
- Also I subbed on your new log bro, cant wait to see how that progresses -
Decent workout today, i worked out with a buddy of mine, kinda slowed my pace down bit, but i managed to try to speed things up
workout looked like this:
6x3 super sets 60 sec rest
A1 Zercher Squat
A2 Weighted Chins
B1 DB Romanian Dead lifts
B2 Decline Bench Press
couple of notes: i upped the weight on Zercher squats quite a bit, i'm much more comfortable with them now tha i was earlier in this program. The load wasn't really that bad, but it's the manipulation of the arm placement under the bar that makes it akward. Also, Romanian Deadlifts went up about 10 lbs. as well, stil felt light, so i'll modify my next workout for these needs. Decline Bench press was a little of a let down, i havent done a pressing movement with the bar in about 5-6 weeks. Back than i weighed around 182ish, so it was a bit of let down that i couldn't bench as much
*** It's times like these that i think it's important to remember that in order to achieve our long term goals, we have to set realistic short term goals. I had to kind of remind myself that its lean mass, low bf% im going for right now. The strength gains can come later.
*** patience is the essence of achievement. - 02-23-2008, 02:59 AM
Besides, it is a disgrace to grow old through sheer carelessness before seeing what manner of man you may become by developing your bodily strength and beauty to their highest limit. - 02-23-2008, 08:11 AM
I'm updating weight and measurments since it's a saturday and i havent taking measurments in about 17 days im gunna update that today, i'm one week into phase 2 and weight has gone up about 2 lbs., at the end of phase 1 i weighted about 167.5ish, today i weighted in at 169.4 I really think the weight gunna come flyin' ON at the end of phase 2 with the five day break, that will be the next time i measure

Thanks JDF, yeah my chest size has gone down overall, but im slowly building it back up - 02-23-2008, 09:37 AM
****ty workout today felt pretty exhausted during the workout, pretty sure its because the meal prior to my preworkout was my P+F snack, i usally go with the p+c meal about 1.5 hour before my preworkout drink, im gunna try to get some more sleep tonight, see if that helps
3rd cheat meal today: 2 slices of cheese pizza covered in shrooms and spinach.... hhhyeah i was trippin' ballz.. jk - 02-26-2008, 12:47 PM
solid workout last night
6x3 super set
Zercher Squats
Lat pulls wide grip
Dumbbell romaninan deads
Weighted Dips
Notes: Zercher Squats went up
DB romaninan deads went up
dropped the weight for dips to really use good form
Food intake has been fine, notice an increase of hunger which is expected when your doing HFT, sorness minimal usally feel it towards the end of the week. I thnk the use of mesadosing fish oil and megadosing the BCAA, along with total calorie intake is contributing to that
Feeling a little softer, but i'll lose it on the next phase
will post later - 02-27-2008, 11:32 PM
Ight guys haven't done a through job of updating lately just been busy with school, work and sh!t, so here it goes:
First off just a quick note, the clean bulking is coming nicely, the weight is really coming on! LIke fast! i'm a little worried that a lot of it could be fat, i still got about 1.5 weeks left on phase 2. The majority of my calories have been clean, other than the cheat meals waterbury says to eat through out the week, total of 3. And while, i've tried to keep these calories fairly clean, turkey, roast beef, ham subs, etc. i may need to rethink my total calorie intake on these cheat meals. Cut the portions down a bit. Another thing, im gunna do is stay away from the FREAKING SCALE until weigh-ins, that could be an issue as well pshycologically I see these numbers, but i gotta remember there just F!CKING numbers! Too many variables to consider (grief).
Another note, i've had a huge increase of appetite this week, this is obviously side effect of the HFT (five full body workouts a week) which is very demanding. While i manage to eat about every 2.5 to 3 hours, it seems, like i'm craving my next meal every 1.5 hours later.
I'm considering supplementing with some e/c stack, too kill the appetite, what you guys think of that?? i know e/c has some catabolic effects, but quite frankly, im killing the calories right now, and the bcaa's to where i should be alright
I've also noticed a decrease in sorness. I have gotten very little soreness during this phase, which is nuts! u would think training five days a week would kill u, but its had the complete opposite effect, my workouts have been more intense and stronger! My weights have consistenly gone up every workout. I'm sure the calorie intake, and macro breakdown is also helping.
training update: tonight i did 5x8 super set 60 sec. rest
Wide grip pullups
Reverse Lunges
Shoulder Press (switched up from push press)
single leg deads
solid workout, no complains here. I decided to give shoulder press a try, ive been doin push press the past four weeks on 5x8(including from phase 1) - 03-01-2008, 05:11 PM
Woke up this morning, took my morning piss, and stepped on the scale 172 lbs. So far i'm up about 4 pounds since the beginning of phase 2. One more week of phase 2, and then i will begin phase 3
Workouts have been great, i really believe HFT is a great way to increase size/strength as quick as possible, as long as your getting enough sleep and your getting enough calories you'll deff pack on some serous mass in just a couple of weeks. I got one more week im hoping to put on another pound or pound.5 which is deff. possible since the last 4 days of this phase = no training. EAT! EAT! EAT!
i'll be taking some measurements next saturday at the end of this phase. - 03-01-2008, 05:21 PM
getting real close to the end of phase 2, it's coming along pretty good, ive noticed my sleep has been off lately, like im having trouble sleeping as much as i used to, but the thing is i feel pretty energized throughout the day. Occasionally i take a nap in the afternoon, that could be it. Today is my last workout for phase 2
supersets of 5x8
A1 pullups
A2 reverse lunge
B1 shoulder press
B2 single leg deads
After this workout i will have about four days to recover and rest, and pretty much be lazy.
Will be weighing in saturday morning, and i will be posting some measurements as well, no pics will be up cause honestly its only been 3 weeks, i rather wait for a more dramatic transformation
Phase 3 begins on sunday:
nutrition basically gets cut in half, snack are halved, removal of fruits from main meals
I will still be dosing with BCAA, although I will be using much smaller doses through out the day, instead of high concentrations around my workout and sleep.
I'll be running an E/C stack all 3 weeks, usallly i only run the e/c stack for about a week into a diet, but im gunna try to stick it out for three weeks
Training will consists of:
3 circuit style unilateral fullbody training, as the date gets closer i will go in more depth what exactly this looks like
as well as some HIIT on tuesdays and thurdays - 03-05-2008, 08:28 AM
I started a slightly modified velocity diet yesterday...
here are the links to the original articles in 2005

Total increase of weight for phase 2: 4.4 lbs. - 03-09-2008, 11:11 AM
Today begins the first day of phase 3. The calorie cutting begins. It's gunna be tough gettin rid of all that fruit from my diet. In order to kill my apetite i will be using an ECA stack. I'll probably be dosing this 2-3 times a day. I'm also gunna add some NEPA walks to this phase to help with the fat loss. I'll be performing NEPA walks everyday for the next three weeks. From my expeirence with NEPA walks there a great way to increase work capacity, and there actually very energizing and relaxing.
Here's a template of how my diet will look like the next 3 weeks:
7:30 am
can of tuna
mixed veggies or stir fry veggies
2 teaspoons of fish oil
acai berries 2 tbls. spoons
green tea
greens +
10:30 am
handful of almonds/mixed nuts
1:00 pm
turkey/roastbeef with asssorted veggies
4:00 pm
handful of mixed nuts/almonds (i think im gunna limit the amount of cheese during snacks, i always seem to have difficult digesting cheese)
TRAINING DAYS = pre/post workout drink
non training days = salmon with a sh!t load of spinach
2 teaspoons of fishoil
2 tablespoons of acai berries
greens +
peppermint tea (kill some apetite and quite refreshing)
right before sleep: 100 grams of dark chocolate with 10 grams of BCAA
the training gunna be:
3 unilateral circuit training = M,W,F
2 lactic acid inducing sprint/biking = T,TH
NEPA walks 25-40 min. = Everyday
I have 2 schedule cheat meals a week one on tuesday and the other on saturday. These meals will most likely be clean, with the addition of some complex carbs, for example: a nice sub
Week1 i will be voiding all cheat meals because yesterday i had a huge cheat meal (chick Fil A sandwach and huge milkshake) to finish off phase 2. I feel like my leptin levels have sky rocketed back to normal, therefore cheat meals won't be necessary for the first week.
Notes about Phase 2:
Phase 2 was pretty rough, the high frequency training will deff. catch up to u around the end of week two. I was constantly hungry even though i was taking a surplus of calories. People were saying i looked pale in the face and really tierd. The four days off at the end is a BLESSING. This quick break allows your body to recover from the harsh training u had to go through the past 2.5 weeks. Expect to put on at least 1.5 to 2 pounds in just these four days. Sleep kicked ass during the past 2 days, averaged about 9.5 hours of sleep a night, apetite is slowly going back to normal again, and i've gained color back in my face.
Phase 2 was a success. I put on a decent amount of weight the past 3 weeks. Although i do not believe all of it is lean mass, some seems to be fat, as ive lost some rippness and vascularity. I can't wait for the end of phase 3! That's when i'll really start seeing some results!
:bb3: - 03-10-2008, 11:20 PM
Just got back from the first workout of phase 3, it looked like this
8x3 unilateral circuit training
rest: 30 secs between sets
A1 one-arm lat pulldown
A2 one-arm dumbbell bench press
A3 single-leg dumbbell deadlift
note: u perform each movement with the weaker limb first, do not hold dumbbell on other side, instead force your core to stabilize the movement, no rest between limbs
I knocked out this workout with a pretty good pace, kept the intensity up, i had to figure out what weight to use, so i will adjust next week, overall solid workout i like the idea of unilateral trianing, hits the core really well, especially one-arm dumbbell presses
food intake was minimal today, sucks having to knockout all that fruit. The ECA is deff. helping, its the intial days that are the worst when your leaning out, cause your stomach has to adjust and shrink down to size. Also, low carb diets have such a diuretic effect, already noticing my face is looking draw - 03-12-2008, 11:13 PM
Phase 3, second workout:
unilateral circuit training: 5x8, 45 seconds rest
A1 1 arm (standing) DB shoulder press
A2 1 arm bent DB row
A3 single leg DB deadlifts
A4 pistol squats
solid workout, my obliques were so sore from the first workout. Seriously, if u wanna stimulate your core, like u've never done before, drop the situps, drop the leg lifts, sh!t drop the deadlifts for that matter, and do one of these unilateral workouts! nuts! - 03-14-2008, 12:59 AM
horrible day today...
i felt soo sh!tty, the past couple of days ive grown increasingly sluggish, i had trouble sleeping last night, i kept on waking up! fcuk! I was so grouchy at work, anybody who walked into the store, i just wanted to wring their neck! on top of that i had to freaking study for a midterm for tommarow!
i think i may have to modify this diet. I'm thinking some sort of complex carbs with lean protein first thing in the morning, to help me get through the day. I'll try this out for the next couple of days, if this doesnt work, im switching out of waterbury's diet plan and I will be using Joel Marion's cheat to lose priming phase plan.
personally this plan may better be suited for me, week one is low carb/high fat, high protein meals, week 2 low glycemic load carbs (certains fruits/legumes)/moderate fat, high protein meals, week 3 moderate glycemic load (certain starches), low fat, high protein meal. If i do start this plan it won't be til prob. sunday. I'll go head and finish up the week with waterbury's diet plan
Increased carb intake, which i think my body is desperatlely in need of
No more cheat meals throughout the week
5 meals instead of six meals
... im starting to think the v-diet to 10/10 transformation is paying a toll on my body. I hope these adjustments will help. Although, i'm tweaking this diet, the training is still on 100% - 03-14-2008, 09:09 AM
Could the waking up at night be because of the ECA? You taking it late at night?
Seems like you were getting some awesome results but if you arent functioning right then its probably time to switch things up - 03-14-2008, 01:29 PM
nah i don't think it is, i usally dose it first thing in the morning, and then usally another at like 2 o clock in the afternoon. (don't even feel the stimuliant sides anymore)
part of the problem with waterbury's diet plan, is the use of green veggies at each meal.
Many experts like beardi and thibs over at t-nation, say certain veggies like spinach, brocolli, celery, peppers, contain so much fiber, that your body barely absorbs the calorie content found in these veggies. Thibs even sugggests when counting calories, to not even count green veggies. With that being said, im going to continue with waterbury's plan, becuase your right, i was gettin really good results with it; i plan on incorporating more variety of veggies, some with some calorie content, carrots, some peas etc. I think my sluggishness lately was caused by this.
ON workout days i will incorprate small amount of complex carbs in the morning prob. half cup of oat bran with some whey.
I think this will be a better option, so that im not completely ditching waterbury's plan.
I think part of the waterbury's plan is that is really simple. Convient? yes. but it's so simple, that certain issues, such as the one i spoke of above do not get answereed
so to recap: i will continue with waterbury's diet plan for the rest of phase 3. - 03-14-2008, 01:34 PM
The anabolic stack is working pretty nasty for me. I now its probably mostly cosmetic and from some other things im doing but Im pretty pump'd all day long. I'm doing....
5gr Creatine Mono
5gr Glutamine
2TBS Glycerine
Down at least 32oz waterSerious Nutrition Solutions Representative
distillled thats awesome, im glad its workin', sh!it if i had the funds right now, i would deff. give that stack a try, but as of now im barely scrabbin' by with food haha

Advertising Crown Limited James Packer John Singleton Politics Property Media Man
A cashed up company part-owned by media tycoons James Packer and John Singleton will soon fully start to cash in on major Sydney motorways, headed up by the M2 motorway.
Construction work on advertising billboards owned by Packer and Singleton's firm first started about 6 month ago and its understood some campaigns are already up and running, but the firm is not disclosing its full client or campaign list, as you would expect - not that anyone else could likely give them much of a run for their money.
These are not any average billboards... they will cost about $500,000 each all told, "Packer and Singo" are looking for strong return on investment.
The concession to erect billboards over the M2 was purchased by Manboom, a company owned by JP, Singo and Robert Whyte, from the M2's owner, Transurban, back in 1998. Talk about forward planning.
For more than a decade Manboom was unable to erect signs over the road because of road blocks from local councils! The M2 passes through three council areas and only one, Hornsby, would permit advertising billboards.
But in 2007 the then planning minister, Frank Sartor, amended legislation that stripped away councils of the right to determine policies for signs over motorways. The Department of Planning became the sole consent authority for motorway advertising.
The Media Man agency strongly suspects that a strained economy (and diluting council coffers) lessened council opposition to the advertising proposal put forward. You know... "Money talks and BS walks", whispered a Media Man insider.
It is not clear how much income Manboom will make from the concession to advertise over the congested M2. The firm has agreed to annual payments to Hornsby Council, the Hills Shire and the City of Ryde in return for its signage rights.
It will also pay for public benefit works commissioned by Roads and Maritime Services.
Transurban's spokesman said months ago: "The installation of advertising signage will fund improvements to the aesthetics and operation of bridges on the motorway, including new bridge facade cladding.
"The project will deliver safety improvements to the motorway and a designated source of ongoing funding for safety enhancements to the motorway," he said.
"The use of advertising signage provides an important alternative source of funding for infrastructure improvements and enhancements."
The M2 is in the middle of a two-year upgrade.
The former RTA last year opposed four of Manboom's 15 proposed signs on safety grounds. It cited a fear about "sign clutter" and a concern the angle of one billboard would distract motorists.
The Department of Planning upheld the RTA's concerns about the four signs.
Some studies say billboard advertising helps keep drivers alert, whilst others suggest they are a dangerous distraction. Readers - what do you think? A gamble with saftey or a gamble on the investment?
Its a safe bet that Packer, Singleton and Whyte have done their sums.
In the meantime plenty of other Sydney councils are watching the project closely to see if they may be able to also benefit financially from extra advertising on their roads.

Doubt it matters. If you want a replacement contact SNS, if you want a refund, haberdash.
Sorry, to clarify, does SNS make their knits shorter now? I'm really short: 5'6". Looking to get a cardigan like the one linked below. Would it be silly on me?
Also the chest measurement seems anemically small. I measured a generic GAP cardigan I had and it was 19.5" in the chest. T-shirts I wear are 19" in the chest, and a perfect-fitting crew neck sweater i have is 21" in the chest.
Any tips are welcome, help a noob out :D?
I almost always buy a medium. Always have length problems.......
Just like most of the other guys on here, I am a bit confused on fit of the Starks also. I am 6'1" without shoes, 175lb, and around 17% body fat. I wear 40R JCF Thompson suiting, Medium Slim at JCrew, I am assuming that in new-fit I would need a Large, and old-fit a Medium?
Also, I can't find any Starks in L/XL on eBay, so where (online stores) and when (month/season) should I be checking for these to be stocked up for a reasonable price?
Thanks in advance!
I have 2 Starks of the recent season in size M and L. M fits me snug especially on the shoulder(mine is 18.5" and It has 16") and arms too, but right for the arm length. On the other hand, L fits right except the arm length is long, almost reaching my knuckle. I am about 5'10" and 175lb. I have a problem with choosing which size to wear and which to go. Anyone could help?

I gave a cinderella pumpkin to the girls yesterday, (it's a bright orange red squash, you can eat it like an acorn squash or use it for pies)
When I brought it up from the basement for dinner, there was a mold spot on it, but when I cut it open, it was fine. I cut all the mold out, cut out the seeds, and baked it, and gave it to the girls.
I noticed one has diarrhea this morning, and another girl had some smut on her butt....normal after effect or should I be concerned?
It was very cold yesterday so I gave them a little pork fat...a little 1 1/2 oz for the 7 of them. (cooked) and also sprouts, (a huge variety) as they've destroyed their run. I measure the quanities, though.
130 Chickens, 71 Rabbits, 3 Dogs, 1 Turkeys, 7 ducks and the hubby!

The disharmony and bitterness of the 1964 session of the Second Vatican Council did not end with the so-called "black week" at the end of the session. Pope Paul VI had felt snubbed by the rejection of the Decree on the Missions that he had gone out of his way to promote and the failure of the Council for Promoting Christian Unity to send him the Decree on Ecumenism until after the council had approved the text. Now, he asserted his authority with greater vigour.

No account of the Second Vatican Council would be complete without a reflection on "the black week" – the week of Nov. 16, 1964 in which four papal interventions stunned the majority of council fathers, creating an emotional rift between them and Pope Paul VI.

Efraim Halevy 311.(Photo by: Ariel Jerozolimski)
J'lem, Cairo hold quiet talks over new Gaza policy
By HERB KEINON
Policy could lead to further easing of restrictions in Strip, prevent quick rearming of Hamas, help develop ties with Egypt.
Quietly and very much behind the scenes, Israel and Egypt are carrying on discussions in Cairo that could lead to the further easing of restrictions on the Gaza Strip and prevent a swift rearming of Hamas, an Israeli government official confirmed on Thursday.
A day earlier, former Mossad director Efraim Halevy said at the Bar-Ilan University Ambassadors' Forum that he believed Israel was beginning to forge an official policy in Gaza that would become clear after the January 22 election.
November's eight-day Operation Pillar of Defense, which the IDF launched in response to Hamas rocket attacks, ended with an amorphous Egyptian-brokered cease-fire whereby Israel pledged to "stop all hostilities in the Gaza Strip," and Hamas agreed that "all Palestinian factions shall stop all hostilities from the Gaza Strip against Israel, including rocket attacks and all attacks along the border."
According to the text of the agreement – the first time Israel has committed to anything in writing with Hamas – "opening the [Gaza] crossings and facilitating the movements of people and transfer of goods and refraining from restricting residents' free movements and targeting residents in border areas and procedures of implementation shall be dealt with after 24 hours from the start of the cease-fire."
Talks to implement the agreement began immediately with Egyptian mediation.
Halevy said that while few details were known about the agreement or about "proximity talks" apparently under way, both sides – "Israel and whoever we are negotiating with" – had an interest in very little information coming out regarding what exactly was being discussed and agreed upon.
"Even to this day little is known as to who is negotiating on whose side, and what the role of the Egyptians is," he said.
Nevertheless, Halevy said, "you can see the beginnings of a policy emerging. We are allowing certain things in Gaza. We are treating the people in Gaza in a slightly different way than we have up to now."
Referring to Hamas head Khaled Mashaal's recent trip to Gaza, Halevy said that visit could not have taken place if Israel had not allowed it to happen, and certainly if Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi had not permitted it. By contrast, he said, Iran's requests to allow its Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salahi to visit Gaza were turned down twice.
One Israeli government official, commenting on the discussion under way in Egypt, said Israel believed there were a number of crucial ingredients in ensuring the continuation of the quiet in the South.
The first element was the prevention of Hamas's rearmament, he said. "A Hamas with diminished capabilities is less likely to invite another round of violence."
He also said Israel was aware that easing the restrictions on Gaza, which he acknowledged was happening quietly, would extend the durability of the cease-fire.
The official said Israel had a keen interest in cultivating a serious dialogue with the new regime in Egypt, and that "if by moving forward on civilian issues in Gaza, we are able to strengthen the cease-fire there and engage the Egyptians in a positive way, then that of course would be advantageous."
Despite the discussions, he added, no one harbored any illusions about the situation in Gaza or the fact that it could quickly explode, saying Israel's military deterrence remained the most important element in securing the quiet.
Halevy, during his talk, spoke briefly about Iran and Syria, saying that Syria was fast becoming Iran's Achilles' heel in the region and that the Islamic Republic had to be kept out of any solution to the Syrian crisis.
In a related development, the situation in Syria and the need for an international effort to deal with the threat Syria's chemical weapons pose came up in discussions in Moscow on Wednesday between the Foreign Ministry's deputy directorgeneral for strategic affairs, Jeremy Issacharoff, and Deputy Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov.
The talks, which also included a discussion about the Iranian nuclear program, took place within the framework of the annual Russian-Israel strategic dialogue.
During his visit, Issacharoff also met with Russian President Vladimir Putin's envoy Mikhail Bogdanov.

Told for the first time from the Native perspective through the eyes of Lakota warrior Cloud, the story also weaves in the lesser-known but strategically important Battle of the Rosebud and the uncertain future that faced the Lakota following victory. Once again, Marshall infuses the story with his unique voice and eye for detail, creating a page-turning Western with a style of its own.
©2008 Joseph M. Marshall III; (P)2009 Blackstone Audio, Inc.
"[Marshall] brings the story of the Battle of Little Bighorn alive through the eyes and hearts of the American Indians." (Denver Post)
"I found myself brought into the Lakota world; Marshall does a superb job of showing how difficult things were becoming for the Lakota as their land was overtaken and the buffalo herds disappeared." (Historical Novels Review)
"Loved the story ,from the Lakota perspective ."
I listened to Hundred in the Hand, and The Long Knives Are Crying, it was a wonderful read, and I will listen again. It's an important look at American history, from the Lakota perspective .
I own auto restoration business, do custom painting. and Im an Audible-aholic. Im getting rite educated two.
"Best Book on the truth."
This outlines the truth about the lies the US Army used to get public backing and told from both sides and they match. this hands down the best
"One of the Best book I own. Loved it!"
Loved it way more then I ever expected. Didn't want to stop listening. Great story.
"The Long Knives are Crying"
This book takes you right into the mysterious and gentle world of the native american in spite of the violent nature of the clash of white and indigenous cultures. Joseph M Marshall is a wonderful story teller; and what a story!
"Disappointing Performance"
This had the potential of being a great book, but the characters are too one dimensional and the story too often loses focus and wanders all over the place. I was also disappointed in the audio narration which is below the standard I have come to expect with audio books.
"poor narration"
narrator very monotone and poot. and amateurish. decent story but overall disappointing. tended to drag on a bit. not one of my better selections

Well, now that I finaly have Darth Vader with removable three stage helmet, I am probably never going to get another Darth Vader ever again.
. . . unless he comes with a different set of hands!!!!
I don't know about the rest of you, but I couldn't stand the fact that the ultimate Darth Vader is left handed.
So . . . I popped the hands off of my 30th aniversary Darth Vader that came with the Kenobi robes base and swapped the hands. I like the look of the hands that come with the newest vader better, but this is the vader I have fighting luke and having him using his off hand during this just didn't make sence to me.
So since my 30th anaversary Vader is the one on my sith shelf, I gave in to temptation and swapped hands.
The other figure I'm thinking about swapping out parts on is Sand Storm Luke. I got him because I didn't have a single luke in my collection at the moment and I just felt that the (NEAR) ultimate Darth Vader deserved an opponent.
Unfortunately, he deserves an opponent with a better head on his shoulders.
So, anyone know a good luke with a likeness that I could swap heads on? Cause this guy is fuuuuugly.

BONIES Hip & Joint Health BULK BOX SMALL (120 Bones) a is unique dog bone that uses all-natural ingredients. Made to be a healthy treat for your dog while freshening their breath at the same time. Intended for dogs weighing 15 - 25 lbs. Bonies Dental Formula contain natural peppermint and parsely to help freshen breath.
BONIES uses brown rice as its first ingredient and unlike other edible chew bones, BONIES contains no animal by-products like gelatin or animal glycerin. BONIES contains zero saturated and trans-fat. Each ingredient in BONIES was carefully selected by a board certified animal nutritionist to ensure safety, enjoyment and digestibility with no compromise to your dog's health.
BONIES uses a 100% natural chicken flavor concentrate made from antibiotic-free US chicken livers. Once chewing starts, the saliva activates and magnifies the natural chicken flavor, making for a delicious but healthy and functional treat with great benefits. The combination of 100% natural peppermint and parsley create the perfect combination to freshen nasty doggy breath.
Mother Nature designed bones to be hard, not soft and chewy. BONIES is uniquely formulated to be hard enough to scrape and polish teeth. While chewing a Bonie, dogs will exercise their jaw muscles and massage their gums.
Expiration date is too short. T.T One month... ,,,long expiration dates
I have six dogs ranging in ages from 17 1/2 yrs to 6 months and sizes from 45 to 14 pounds. They all love Bonies. Buying then in bulk really saves me money and time.
great for small treats and training-both dogs enjoy the taste and look forward to their afternoon treat
After looking at Taz and Bella's teeth, my vet remarked how clean and bright they are. I attribute it to giving each of them a Bonie every day. All the dogs love them (including two neighbor dogs who stop by every morning for the treat).
My 3 dogs go straight for the counter where I keep their Bonies after they eat! They love these treats. I've also noticed that they help keep their teeth clean as well. Great price and great treats.
My dog has allergies so these are just right for her and she enjoys them. She is able to chew them very quickly so they don't last long but she seems satisfied.
Took advantage of the bulk price for small Bonies and so glad I did. These are definitely Madison's favorite...each morning he nudges me, then goes to where the Bonies are kept (who says dogs can't talk?!) Not only does he love them, they also help keep his teeth free from tartar.
Shipping and satisfaction as a Christmas gift.
Good treat to use when you want to give your dog a little snack.
Excellent service and product. Good communication from the company and easy tracking with the tracking number they provided. Will definitely shop here again.
My dogs love them. I like the joint option that is added. Economical. Fast delivery.
We have tried many treatments, medications, procedures and products for my senior lab to help him with his arthritis. These Bonies really, really help manage his symptoms as well as or better than other things we've tried. Best of all, he LOVES them, I've never seen him get so excited about a treat as he does for a Bonies!
I buy these in bulk to save money as I give both of my dogs one of these daily. The dogs love them and I give them after a walk as they settle down for a rest. Both dogs are prone to hip dysplasia so I feel that this added joint formula can help.
My dogs all go crazy for these, they all do really well with them and we have seen a big improvement in my senior dog's mobility since he started enjoying his daily Bonies Joint Formula bones.
Cheaply by purchasing good Joints in many noryeonggyeon should help
It likes to chew . ,, And joint snack , it's better
Layla, my dog goes nuts for these Bonies. My neighbor used to give them to her now I do. They help clean her teeth and she loves them.
My dog Nelson gets one bonie everyday after we return from a walk. He is a large 4 year old muttigree dog and I am giving these joint formula bonies as a preventative measure for arthritis. He loves these bonies and knows he's going to get one when we return from our walk.
I ordered these on 2/23, but still haven't received them. Very hard to get answers from the staff. The product is great, but delivery is a challenge!!
have tried numerous chews - so that I don't have to worry about brushing his teeth every day. He loves these - I give him one a day and don't have to brush his teeth - which is hates anyway.
My daughter previously purchased the Bonies for her two dogs. Upon her recommendation, I ordered some for my dog. He loves them...I especially like them because they are made in the US!

Athletes were visibly upset upon hearing the news; "Why?" "We don't understand!" You SAID 'Fencing'!"
The six members of the United States Fencing Team stem from many backgrounds. Co-joined Fencing Twins Danielle and Tom from Southern California quit competitive surfing when the opportunity to fence came their way. "We were just a couple of surfer dudes who basically hung out at the beach." said Tom. "Bro." said Danielle, "I'm a girl". "Shush. Then our Mother gave us a gift certificate for fencing lessons at a fencing school in Rancho Santa Margarita". "Named after Saint Margaret" Danielle added. "The patron Saint of all things which cause the elderly to act nutty in the wee hours of the night!" "Shush!" Tom continued. "And here we are, shovel ready!"
London Olympic Officials had little to say as they listened to the pleas of the obviously retarded Americans. Officials showed no signs for tolerance or sympathy, only amazement and disappointment at the outright stupidity of the Americans. "You people are IDIOTS! Take this up with your American President and your team's Coach! You have completely missed the point! Are you MORONS?! Remove yourselves by noon from the Olympic Village! Take your tools!"
England is an emerging superpower and these Olympic Games could serve as a springboard for their effectiveness at global bargaining tables. A medal sweep for the British could give the British leverage-be it for a country's energy reserves, America's untapped natural mineral resources, or Britians' ability to use their accents to get at our hot chicks. Outrageous indeed!

DALSA extends image sensor leadership in medium format digital photography with 6 micron pixel platform
Posted 9/23/2008
Waterloo, Ontario, September 23, 2008 - This year's Photokina trade show in Cologne, Germany, sees the launch of groundbreaking new products by some of the most dominant players in medium format photography, and DALSA is proud to provide their most critical components—image sensors built on our new 6 micron pixel platform.
"These new image sensors continue DALSA's tradition of setting the standards by which all others are judged," said DALSA CEO Brian Doody. "Our 6 micron pixel platform enables medium format devices with 50, 60 megapixels and beyond, delivering spectacular, unprecedented resolution and image quality for the world's most demanding commercial studio applications."
Our technology has led the way in professional digital photography for more than a decade. In 1998 our image sensor group delivered the world's first 35mm full-frame imager, a six megapixel device that was a landmark in the revolutionary shift to digital that we now take for granted. Ten years later DALSA still leads the industry, supplying devices with ten times that resolution covering the full frame of 645 medium format film.
Of course, image quality depends on more than just pixel count. DALSA knows this better than most—our industry-leading image sensors have always offered higher throughput, exceptionally low noise, unmatched dynamic range, and better color, and our new 6 micron platform delivers even more of the performance professional photographers demand. With higher responsivity to compensate for smaller pixels, our new devices bring no compromises in performance. We continue to deliver superior angular response, which is vital for wide angle lenses or lens tilt and shift techniques.
DALSA's long history of innovation, our deep expertise, and our commitment to work closely with customers help us deliver the devices that camera developers dream of—devices that they can build into truly unique products.
With DALSA image sensors at the heart of the newest, highest-resolution and highest performance medium format digital camera systems, DALSA's leadership is clear. The world's best photographers will explore the possibilities that these remarkable new products bring, delivering incredible imagery for years to come. But technology does not stand still and neither does DALSA. We have earned our leadership position in the world's most demanding imaging applications through continual technology development, and the products unveiled by our partners at Photokina 2008 are only the beginning.
Stay tuned for more industry-leading image sensor innovation from DALSA.

What do you need washers for?
Daystar makes 2" poly spacers to go under the spring. You may need stud extenders to reach up through the coil spacer and put the nut on to hold the spring.

You can use washers welded together, with the center hole hogged out. Or, what I did was find some steel stock the diameter of the lower coil, cut it, drill a hole and drill another hole to fit over the nut that is on the stud that will go through it. Mine is roughly 3/4" tall, and I gained roughly 1 & 1/2" lift...but I did it more for alignment purposes than anything (makes camber go more positive)...
If you've got a 2WD then you more than likely will need a stud extender, I didn't for my ranger which is 4wd |

watch out putting spacers on a ttb front end. i heard those things cause massive alignment issues. i want to put them on my trucks too so when you figure out something let me know how it worked

When ever you do anything to a TTB front end that changes ride height, you're going to need to at least adjust camber and toe (although caster also changes, but it's not a tire wearing angle).
The issue with spacers on a TTB truck arise when the spacers are too big, which make the camber adjustment impossible to get back in spec (camber will be way positive - this can only be adjusted with pivot drop brackets for the individual beams) On my ranger, I've got roughly a 3/4" spacer under the coils, and it's alignable, but then again I've got a lift on it as well that's been tweaked with...I've heard of people putting up to 1 1/4" spacer on and still being able to align it....you'd have to check on a f150 site to see how thick those spacers are Whether or not the spacer is too big depends on the truck. For example, a single cab short bed 4 banger ranger will need a smaller spacer than an extended cab 4.0 v6 ranger to stay with in the "alignable" area. This is because a spacer of equal height will have a greater effect on a lighter vehicle (the rangers have the same rate coils across the board, I'd assume f-150's are the same way....if they had different rate coils for different configurations, this wouldn't hold true). |

Ranger Addiction?
Are these spacers for lift or spacers for leveling?
I've read about a bunch of people using the good ol' hockey puck with a hole drilled through it. You can go as high as you want so long as there's complete thread engagement on the nut and stud. |
April 14th, 2006, 08:53 PM | #8 |
Senior Member
you can go as high as you like, but as I stated, the higher you go, the more positive your camber goes...there becomes a point where the only what to get camber back into spec is to drop the pivot point for that beam....

ive got a tuff country lift on the f-150 and the axle pivot brackets allow for more adjustment than i need so i think il slap some spacers under there and see how she looks. thanks.

The Canada Revenue Agency had an important win this week in its efforts to access information outside of Canada. On March 20, 2013, the Federal Court issued its decision in Soft-Moc Inc. v. M.N.R. 2013 FC 291, dismissing Soft-Moc's judicial review application to have the CRA's decision to issue a Foreign-Based Information Requirement set aside or varied.
The CRA has broad powers to access information related to the determination of a taxpayer's tax obligations. Under subsection 231.6 of the Income Tax Act, these powers include the issuance of a Foreign-Based Information Requirement to obtain information or documents located outside of Canada.
In Soft-Moc, the CRA was conducting a transfer pricing audit and sought information from corporations in the Bahamas who provided services to Soft-Moc. These corporations and their individual Bahamian resident shareholder owned 90% of the common shares of Soft-Moc. The CRA issued a Foreign-Based Information Requirement to Soft-Moc under subsection 231.6(2) of the Income Tax Act.
The Requirement requested substantial amounts of information related to the Bahamas Corporations including extensive details of the services provided, customers, financial statements, costs and profits and employee data. Soft-Moc applied for judicial review of the decision to issue the requirement.
Primarily, Soft-Moc argued that the information requested went well beyond that necessary to enable the CRA to complete the transfer pricing audit and that the decision to issue the requirement was, therefore, unreasonable. Soft-Moc argued that a portion of the information requested was irrelevant and that some portions were confidential or proprietary.
The Court was not sympathetic to Soft-Moc's arguments, noting the wide-ranging statutory powers of the CRA to collect information and the low threshold to be met in determining whether the requested information is relevant and reasonable.
This win, which was not surprising in light of the Federal Court of Appeal's earlier decision in Saipem Luxembourg S.A. v. The Canada Customs and Revenue Agency, 2005 FCA 218, will encourage the CRA to continue to use foreign-based requirements more frequently and earlier in the audit process.

1004 | Unknown | N/A | N/A |

Usage Information |
This device is the same device as the MiCasaVerde Z-Wave Dongle and Z~Series Z-Wave USB Stick reported to work by multiple users
Aeon Labs Z-Wave Interface with built-In Inclusion Remote is compatible with LinuxMCE, ControlThink and most other Z-Wave home control software. It uses the latest Z-Wave software, 5.02 P3 from July 2009, with support for all the new command classes, and supports both high speed (4x 40kbps) and standard speed Z-Wave devices.
What sets this USB interface apart is that it has a built in inclusion controller. You no longer need to have a separate master controller that you use to pair your Z-Wave modules, and then go through the process of replicating to transfer the data to your USB controller. Instead, just carry this USB dongle around as you turn on/off your Z-Wave modules and they are paired in one step. Be aware that you cannot include other controllers with the button. You need to use LinuxMCE or Vera for that (or any other Z-Wave software supoporting the dongle)
Available in either U.S. or Euro Z-Wave frequencies.
A "lite" version is available that lacks the inclusion controller.
To bind new Zwave devices, just take the dongle with you after you install the device in it's position you will use it. First push the button on the dongle, and than push the bind button on the device. The dongle will go from blinking blue to solid blue for a second or so and than start blinking again, you just succesfully bound the device to this dongle.
First look in the error logs, follow logs, whole log in the webadmin under the zwave device for anything out of the ordinary. If all else fails, just delete all zwave devices from the webadmin, delete the zwave device, reload the router and plug the dongle back in to have it recognize it again. If this doesn't work go on the forum or irc channel and ask for help.
Aeon Labs - Z-Stick Series 2 Product Page
Aeon Labs - Z-Stick Lite (no inclusion button)
Aeon Labs (Euro) Z-Wave Interface with built-In Inclusion Remote from Techstyle UK Ltd. - very expensive (nearly 75GBP ~ 89EUR)

This is a summary. To read the whole story subscribe to BostonGlobe.com
A newly appointed Boston middle school principal, hoping to inspire her staff to take risks for success and to learn from one another, extensively plagiarized a Forbes Magazine column on leadership in her first memo to the staff, sparking outrage among some teachers and an apology from the principal.
Jaime Moody, principal of the Lilla G. Frederick Pilot Middle School in Dorchester, sent the memo by e-mail on July 9, copying word for word or slightly tweaking large chunks of the column, titled "Why Getting Comfortable with Discomfort is Crucial to Success."
The plagiarized material consumed more than 300 words of Moody's two-page memo and she never attributed any information to the Forbes column, written by Margie Warrell and published April 22, according to a copy of the memo.

Biochemistry, Biophysics Subforums?Moderator: BioTeam

Biochemistry, Biophysics Subforums?I recommend a BIochemistry and/or Biophysics subforum to better inquiry the "mechanical" operations of life and cellular biology.
For the moment it has gone in the Molecular biology or the cell biology subforum. The General discussion would be OK too.
And TBH, not very many intense discussion on the subject yet to warrant the addition of a new subforum. Patrick
Science has proof without any certainty. Creationists have certainty without any proof. (Ashley Montague)
I would agree with Atheaut, because biochemistry is quite different from molecular biology and just because it was going there so far doesn't mean, it should be there
Cis or trans? That's what matters.

NFC News Long-time Nirvana fan Stephanie Kuehnert to release her first rock 'n roll novel in July 2008! | |
A raw, edgy, emotional novel about growing up punk and living to tell. The Clash. Social Distortion. Dead Kennedys. Patti Smith. The Ramones. Punk rock is in Emily Black's blood. Her mother, Louisa, hit the road to follow the incendiary music scene when Emily was four months old and never came back. Now Emily's all grown up with a punk band of her own, determined to find the tune that will bring her mother home. Because if Louisa really is following the music, shouldn't it lead her right back to Emily? One of the inspirations for I WANNA BE YOUR JOEY RAMONE was Kurt Cobain's quote, "I like the comfort in knowing that women are the only future in rock 'n roll." And Nirvana fans will find Nirvana references and Nirvana inspired moments in the book. The characters attend Nirvana concerts, the last chapter of the book is set in Seattle, and like Nirvana, Emily's band is trying to break out of a small, rural town. Nirvana biographer and author the New York Times bestselling author of Heavier Than Heaven, Charles R. Cross reviewed the book and says of it, "Kuehnert's love of music is apparent on every page in this powerful and moving story. Her fresh voice makes this novel stand out in the genre, and she writes as authentically about coming of age as she does punk rock. She's titled the book after a great song by Sleater-Kinney, and both that band, and the iconic Joey Ramone, would be proud of this effort." I WANNA BE YOUR JOEY RAMONE is available for pre-order on amazon.com and you can learn more about the book and author Stephanie Kuehnert on her website stephaniekuhnert.com. | |

The Horse Forum
- Horse Training
- - Head Tossing
Head Tossing Any suggestions for working on head tossing in a horse? Jayne does it whenever he's being pissy and doesn't want to do what you're asking him or is frustrated. No buck or rear, just head tossing/bobbing. He's always done it as long as I known him- it was one of the reasons he was sold to me. They rode him in a tie-down, and all that did was teach him he could only do it so high or low, not actually resolve the issue at all. He also does it while standing tied sometimes with or without pawing. For me, he'll do it WHILE doing whatever it is that I'm asking that he doesn't like or doesn't really understand/know well, and it doesn't really bother me all that much since he's still doing what I want with his feet. Pain is unlikely since he's done it bareback, in different saddles, etc, and it only comes up when he's showing some attitude. If I smack him on the side of the neck or otherwise correct him, he'll stop for a while, so it's not been something I've really worked to correct on a regular basis. BUT I know some other people see it as a serious problem, and I suppose if I was interested in showing, it would be. Any safe ways to correct it? Any ways to correct it so he's less likely to try it with other riders? |
This is what I posted for barrelbeginner. There is a way to break him of it. It seems mean to me though. The local horse dealer here would tie your horses reins criss cross under your horses belly and tie the ends to the horn just so the horses head stays down. Not too tight but so that the horse can't pop his head up. Then he would lunge him in the walk, trot and canter. The horse learns the only release on the bit is when he keeps his head down. I've seen him do it. I go over there and watch him and his crew fix bad habits so they can resell horses. This particular day, the horse learned it in a very short time. I'm NOT a trainer. Just passing on what I saw done to a horse to correct the head tossing. Don't know if it's good or bad to do. Read more: http://www.horseforum.com/horse-trai...#ixzz1zlvqXpdl |
I've put him in a training Y, which is a similar idea, it attaches to the girth and the bit. When he's in it, there's no head tossing, though he will throw his head down occasionally as an alternative. The moment you take it off, back to the same ole' same ole.' He rode in it 100% of the time saddled for about three weeks. Not long enough? I dunno... I have no problem with training tools or gadgets, per se, but I don't want a horse that relies on them, or 'reverts' when you take them off... because that's not really training the horse, just preventing them from showing the behavior. OTOH, letting him continue to practice this long established habit makes it even harder to get rid of than it already will be. I've pretty much ignored it since it is much better than it was when I bought him (no credit to me, I assure you), though only when I am riding him. Someone else hops on and it seems to get worse again. |
I don't know the answer. Riding in the saddle with a device seems to teach him what to do with the device as you said. My GUESS would be that he needs the groundwork training reinforcement before you transition him to a rider. He needs to relearn so to speak or unlearn this bad habit. Takes at least as much time to undo the problem to equal the amount of time he's been given to learn the wrong way. Let's see what other folks say. |
63 Attachment(s) Does he do it bit-less too? Have you tried different bits? |
I have tried some different bits- he was really bad about doing it when I rode him in a tom thumb (before I bought him), somewhat better in a hollow mouth snaffle (what I put him in right after I bought him), and much better in the french link he's in now (that I put him in about three months after purchase). I do think the bit changes helped, but I also think that part of it is a habit he has. I do ride him in his halter on a regular basis, but I cannot recall if he does it in the halter or not- Good Question! I will pay attention and see in the next couple of days. Maybe that will shed some light on things. I have never used a bitless bridle, sidepull, hackamore, or any of those other options with him. |
My gelding does that to. What I do is have contact with his mouth, like riding english, when he tosses his head I give a firm pull on the reins, not a jerk, just an increase of pressure from what you already had. At the same time give him a good bump and squeeze with your legs. I started doing that and he has slowly been not doing it. |
Went out on the trail today- he got impatient waiting for some of the slower walking horses and started tossing his head. I smacked him on the side of the neck, which resulted in him stopping for about 10 seconds with his head up and ears focused back on me. Then he tried it again, got smacked again, and just stood there sulking. Don't know if that will help long term, be that did it for today. If that is all it takes, I'm going to feel downright silly for not doing it sooner. Haven't rode him in his halter yet to check that. |

Changed the oil of my car on a Sunday evening in front of my house while I was doing my things inside . The price they gave me was by far the best. Would definettlley reccomend .Happy customoer
Very polite, very efficient, very tidy. I Would definitely use again and recommend to others for work.
Happy young lad who arrived on time. Very helpful and got the job done quickly without fuss. Really convenient to have a mobile mechanic come out to you. I'd definitely use them again, hassle free car repairs.
Very friendly and professional guys. Their tent had broken so had to park under nearby arches to do the job as it was dark and raining. Job was done quickly and effectively. Will certainly be using again and recommend to others. Even managed to reset the service light in the car saving me a trip to the dealer.
I was very pleased with this garage and would certainly recommend and use them again. I found them to be honest and competitively priced. They were also polite, friendly and not in the least pushy. Two small problems occurred and not only were these resolved extremely promptly but l also received some money off my bill. I left them thinking l would trust them completely.
We arrived at 08.30 with our Ford c-max for a new clutch we were told it would be ready for 5pm very reasonable price as per quote and a good job done car ready on time will use this garage again thanks guys
Had car to go through Mot as had failed previously, needed two rear tyres changed and rear cluster brake lights shorting and brake pads. Car passed Mot handed over £280. Did this in January, my previous tyre had a small puncture which I had to re inflate every 2 weeks. I went on holiday for 3 weeks in April and noticed the tyre flat. So I pumped it up again and ever since I've had to do it every week now, took it back and the guy who took my money did not seem interested. I have checked the light cluster and that is still not working so obviously my car is legal. Please don't use these guys.
I had the clutch replaced at this garage and this was completed successfully as the car seems fine so far. However, I have also asked for A/C recharge and they were not able to complete the job, they have advised that the EIC condenser has a leak and needs replacement. I have been charged £20 for this job even though my AC still does not work. Was agreed with Sam that he will call me the next day to provide a quote for the condenser replacement, he did not bother to call me back at all. Also they have not re-filled the engine coolant after completing the works, had to buy new coolant on my way home. Not very professional garage overall, had to call several times to get updates for collection time and did not even get response.
very pleased with the service
Glad I found this place -- Rob explained clearly why a few more parts were needed to do the job properly but total price was still good -- will definitely use again -- thanks
Exceleklent service and quick turnaround. Would definitely use again
Really quick to respond to my questions and patient with how many I had. I am very new to the area and was nervous about using a different garage (last one has been one my family used for years). Can safely say I have found my new garage! Car was fixed promptly, all the costs were explained - they even seemed worried I would be upset with the cost when in fact I was surprised at how cheap it was! - work was great, my car sounds and feels great again. Thank you so much!
Dropped by. Got Brakes done there and then. Very Friendly and Efficient Service! PS could do with a customer wait area ;)
Prompt, excellent work, quick delivery - do what they say on the package. I have a garage that I can trust!!!
Excellent, honest and fast. Really pleased. Will definitely be back to get my bumper done
Good customer service and reasonable prices. Fair few things to repair and it was only 3 days.
36 £ was only for diagnosis
Everything fine. Good service . I recommend for everyone .
They did not do anything. I wasted my time and when I asked the "mechanic" something about my car he keeps telling me that he don't know this car....If he didn't know the car why they gave me the quote to come there ? Very disappointed I will never go back there !

It's the third part of his "design trilogy" and supposed to focus on the design of cities: the issues and strategies behind urban design and the solutions architects and urban planners come up with to accommodate the growing mass of people moving into urban areas. Should be fun. Advertisement But he needs help finishing the project! Urbanized is self-funded (largely from Helvetica and Objectified revenues) and needs some donations to finish up.
