The mesh is sold at hardware stores for concrete reinforcing. We bought mesh with four-inch square holes and each 4-foot by 6-foot piece cost less than five dollars. The grand total for this super functional trellis? Fifteen bucks.It would appear the mesh is spaced just right to encourage the growth of squash, cucumbers, beans, and tomatoes upwards instead of sprawling out into their tiny garden. The installation was a breeze, they used a heavy-duty staple gun to staple the mesh right to the wood of their fence. Alternately you could use thick zip-ties if you didn't want to put staple holes in the railing of your deck. Have your own creative way to squeeze out enough space to grow your favorite veggies?

The Aston Villa manager, Paul Lambert, has tipped hat-trick hero Christian Benteke to enjoy a big future in the game - but still passed man-of-the-match honours to Matthew Lowton following the 6-1 rout of Sunderland.
Villa's biggest win since 2008 not only took them five points clear of third-bottom Wigan in the battle to avoid the drop, it also improved their goal difference to the extent they overhauled Newcastle.
Lambert had Benteke to thank following his second-half heroics, which underlined why the Belgian is one of the most sought-after young players in the game. "You can't speak highly enough of him," said Lambert. "He keeps his feet on the ground and is hungry to have success as a footballer.
"I thought we needed a striker like that. He is a big lad and everyone can see his technique is fabulous. He played a lot games for Genk. He is Belgium's main target player and they are going to qualify for the World Cup.
"People forget he is 22. He has a big career in front of him as long as he keeps working hard."
It still was not enough for his manager to select him as Villa's stand-out performer on a dream night. "He was alright but Matt Lowton was the best player on the pitch by an absolute mile."
It looked like being another difficult evening for the Midlands club after they allowed Danny Rose to level within two minutes of Ron Vlaar's first-half piledriver. But Lowton's break created the chance Andreas Weimann finished off just before the interval and once Benteke had destroyed Sunderland, Gabriel Agbonlahor rubbed it in a minute from time to become Villa's highest-ever Premier League goalscorer.
"I hope goal difference is not important but it could be," said Lambert. "It brings everybody else back into it and pulls us away from Wigan.
"The situation is better than it was a few months ago. We have been in this position for most of the season but they have handled it brilliantly. They have got their heads down and kept going. They don't look like a team that is down there."
Typically, Sunderland manager Paolo di Canio pulled no punches afterwards as his side's two-game winning run came to a shuddering halt, apologising to the visiting supporters for a performance he branded "unacceptable".
"There were two different teams on the field," he said. "Aston Villa had a ferocity. They had desire and ambition, like it was the last chance of their lives. For us, after two wins in a row, our stomach was a bit full. When you eat a lot, you relax, you sleep.
"We have to apologise to the supporters. You can lose with a big gap but the way it happened was not acceptable. Now we have to work with blood in our eyes."
To compound a terrible night, Sunderland also had Stéphane Sessègnon dismissed for a second-half challenge on Yacouba Sylla which threatens to rule him out for the remainder of the season, although Di Canio has confirmed the club will appeal the red card.
"There was nothing in it," he said. "The leg was not straight. He didn't want to cause any damage to his opponent. The referee fell in a trap. It wasn't a nasty action."
Di Canio also indicated he was not concerned at the abuse he received from the Villa fans, who have not forgotten his 'going down' gesture at them when he was Swindon manager earlier in the campaign. "I don't mind. It is not an issue for me," he said. You can add another two thousand bad words to the millions that I received in my football career."

The Lawgiver, by Herman Wouk, Simon & Schuster, RRP£18.99/$25.99, 240 pages
Philip Roth recently confessed to an interviewer that old age had beaten him and that Nemesis (2010) was his last book. Roth is 79. Herman Wouk is 97 and made of sterner stuff. The Pulitzer winning author of The Caine Mutiny (1951) and The Winds of War (1971) refuses to give up the game. The Lawgiver is merely the latest work in a 70-year career and there are hints of more to come.
Wouk is committed to his Jewish faith and has long wanted to write a novel about the life of Moses but has never found a way in. Now that time is undoubtedly pressing, he finally has. Up to a point. There is no bobbing among the bulrushes or parting of the Red Sea here but, instead, Wouk offers an account of the making of a Cecil B. DeMille-style epic film about the prophet. This is Moses in the promised land of Hollywood, where the chosen people he leads are directors, screenwriters, agents, producers and even Wouk himself.
The idea and the money for the film come from a Jewish Australian uranium billionaire who contacts the fictional Wouk for script help. The project also involves a producer with a sideline in making oil from algae, a director of big budget hits, an art-house auteur and an Australian actor rather more fond of his father's sheep farm than the big screen.
(Non-fictional) Wouk's way of bringing this motley tribe together is through emails, texts, Skype and phone transcripts. In this world, God would send the Ten Commandments via his Twitter feed.
Underneath this gloss is a very traditional love story. As the (fictional) Wouk plays hard to get and the money men fly around in private jets, the film's writer, Margolit (Margo) Solovei, a lapsed Jew, makes contact with her school-days boyfriend Josh. He is now a successful lawyer, though in the intervening years he has been in the wilderness, maintaining a steadfast and puppy-eyed love for Margo.
The story whips along as one-line texts ping in followed by a rattled-off page of film script and, amid the flurry, there are brief insights into why Moses has such a hold on them all. It is all very innocent: the producers use faxes and the hunk actor is given to very un-Australian sentiments – wishing Margo "could see the hundreds and hundreds of little white lambs leaping and dancing all over the farm". There's not a swear word to be heard and Wouk also believes sterling comes in £1,000-notes.
The Lawgiver is endearing and light-hearted but, inescapably, an old man's book. The wisdom of Wouk's years seems to suggest it is impossible to get his Moses down on tablets of stone, so he has written on something softer instead.

2 Catches that Made NFL History
Saturday, November 3, 2012 20:30Which two catches do you consider the best in NFL history?
2 Catches that Made NFL History
Over the years there have been so many explosive game changing catches slammed straight into the history books and remaining in players' and spectators' minds for years after. The amazing aerial assaults that happen each week and the agile and astonishing grabs that make the NFL such an enjoyable spectator sport are executed from preseason to post, and with Brandon Marshall (then Denver Broncos, now Chicago Bears) being the only person in NFL history with 18 or more receptions in one game (2009), there is a high standard to beat.
I know that everyone will have their own take on the grabs that made history, but two of the most famous and jaw dropping airborne maneuvers are Joe Montana to Dwight Clarke (San Francisco 49ers) and David Tyree's (New York Giants) catch. Blessed with the kind of winning luck that the online casino players at Lucky Nugget wish for everyday, they hit the jackpot and took the game with their retrievals.
The grab from Joe Montana to Dwight Clark has gained such renown that is known as "The Catch", one of the most famous plays ever. This catch launched the 49ers dynasty and killed such for a long time for the Dallas Cowboys, as with only 51 seconds left on the clock Montana looked like he was throwing the ball away to give his team a final chance on 4th down. 6'4" Dwight Clark simply left the ground and made the catch that won the game, sending them on to win the Super Bowl XVI, beating the Cincinnati Bengals 26-21.
Patriots' fans were struck a double blow with one of the single greatest plays in NFL history when the Patriots took on the New York Giants in Super Bowl XLII. With 1:15 remaining in the game the Patriots were leading 14-10 and, in an unexpected move, Eli Manning stymied the Patriot defenders, throwing the ball 32 yards down field to wide receiver David Tyree. Tyree did the impossible and pulled the ball down onto the top of his helmet as he was slammed to the ground. Manning shortly after connected with Plaxico Burress on a touchdown pass that saw the Giants triumph 17-14.
Fans will argue the semantics of many game changing catches, but itis hard to argue against these 2 catches being among the best ever.
One Response to "2 Catches that Made NFL History"
November 4th, 2012 at 10:49 am
UH…Excuse me,….This is history calling….The Immaculate Reception not only changed the first real playoff game in Steeler history, it launched the greatest dynasty in NFL history…Harris' catch also augured the use of replay in sports, it changed the character of an entire city, and made Raida nation whine about it to this day.
That alone makes it the greatest catch ever.
Tyree's is a very close second considering the stakes and how it derailed the cheaters from a Super Bowl.
The Clark catch is a very tight third because Dallas fans are still crying about it…The only thing that warms my heart more than a whiny Raida fan is a Cryboy fan crying….
Franco's grab transformed a city and its people.

The NBA's Top 10 Plays of the Day: April 20th
Subscribe to AM 1400 ESPN on
The NBA Playoffs are in effect!!! Let's check out the highlights from the first days action.
Kenyon Martin (affectionately known as K-Mart) denied the Jet entry in the paint as he sent Jason Terry's shot into row 34 in the Knicks' game against the Celtics.
Marc Gasol had a sweet dish to Chris Conley for an easy lay-up in the Grizzlies versus Clippers game.
New current 3-point scoring record holder Steph Curry had an awful first half against the Nuggets as the Warriors traveled to Denver. But a late trifecta tied the game with 14.5 seconds left (we'll come back to this game later).
The Knicks' JR Swoosh performed a beautiful, gravity defying, mid-air move around Celtics' all-star K.G. and later, Mr. Smith posterized Jeff Green with a right-down-the-middle drive and dunk.
Derek Williams had a nice pass, in traffic, to fellow Brooklyn Net, Brook Lopez. D-Will would make the countdown again showing off his agility with a reverse slam.
The number 2 and 1 spots both belong to Denver Nuggets (told ya we'd be back in Denver). #2, Javale McGee's monster slam way over Aussie Andrew Bogut. But the #1 spot goes to 37-year old Andre Miller with the YMCA lay-up with less than 2 seconds on the clock which ultimately put the nail in the coffin on Golden State.

Can Android do Serious Linux Work, or is it Just a Toy?
What's What with Google Android
The Linux-based Android is the hot new mobile platform, but is it more than an entertainment device? Can it do remote server administration? What about the also red-hot iPad?Lugging a laptop around is preferable to commuting, but why not go even more portable with a smartphone or tablet? Can Android serve as a capable remote server administration platform? Android is based on Linux and is open source, so it seems it should be a natural for portable administration.
Both Apple's iOS and Google's Android operating systems were designed from the ground up with the mobile phone as the principal platform. Apple has used iOS for their iPad tablet device and the Apple TV set-top-box, while Google has essentially followed suit with a number of Android-based tablet devices already on the market, and the latest Google-TV product offerings from Logitech and Sony. It certainly seems like Apple and Google are competing head-to-head on many fronts. So are these just toys, or can they do serious work?
So What is Android Anyway?
Linux is at the heart of Android. In fact, each Android release is based upon a specific version of the Linux kernel, albeit a modified one. There have been issues along the way over Google kernel modifications with some code being deleted from the main tree (see this blog post by kernel developer Greg Kroah-Hartman). At the end of the day it's safe to say that Android is based on a modified Linux kernel.
Android, like any modern operating system, has gone through a number of releases with 2.3 (Gingerbread) being the most recent. The releases have come in relatively short cycles as shown in the table below:
1.1 | Feb 9, 2009 | Initial Public Release | |
1.5 | Apr 30, 2009 | Cupcake Release | 2.6.27 |
1.6 | Sep 15, 2009 | Donut | 2.6.29 |
2.0 | Oct 26, 2009 | Eclair | 2.6.29 |
2.1 | Jan 12, 2010 | 2.6.29 | |
2.2 | May 20, 2010 | Froyo | 2.6.32 |
2.3 | Dec 6, 2010 | Gingerbread | 2.6.35 |
In just under two years there have been seven point releases of the Android operating system. That's a pretty big number of releases, especially when you compare that to something like Microsoft's Windows operating system and their glacial release cycle. The Android team have managed to keep pretty close track of Linux kernel releases as well.

Simon Dyson will launch his defence of the Irish Open alongside local hero Graeme McDowell and three-time Major Champion Padraig Harrington when the first round gets underway at Royal Portrush Golf Club on Thursday.
Dyson, who claimed his fifth European Tour title at the 2011 Irish Open at Killarney Golf and Fishing Club 12 months ago, is looking to become the sixth man in the history of the tournament to record back-to-back victories in the event, and with it join a select club that includes golfing legends Sir Nick Faldo, Seve Ballesteros and Colin Montgomerie.
The Englishman takes to the Dunluce Links among the early starters at 7.50am on Thursday morning with 2010 US Open Champion McDowell, who was born just minutes away from Portrush Golf Club, and the ever-popular Irishman Padraig Harrington.
The two groups following the defending champion, meanwhile, will also retain local interest as Ballymoney-born Michael Hoey – already a winner this year at the Trophée Hassan II in Morocco – tees it up at 8am, before newly-crowned Amateur Champion Alan Dunbar, the latest in a long line of Northern Irish golfing stars, makes his second start in a professional event at 8.10am.
Also returning to his native land for the first Irish Open to be held in Northern Ireland for almost 60 years is current World Number Two Rory McIlroy, who tees off at 12.50pm alongside Branden Grace and tournament debutant and US PGA Champion Keegan Bradley. Grace has undoubtedly been one of the stories of the season so far, having already claimed three victories this year since gaining his European Tour card at the Qualifying School last December.
Open Champion Darren Clarke, who lives in the hills overlooking Portrush Golf Club, is drawn in the group preceding compatriot McIlroy at 12.40pm alongside Ryder Cup star Francesco Molinari and Spaniard Rafael Cabrera-Bello, while Gareth Maybin launches the triumvirate of Northern Irish stars in succession when he tees off at 12.30pm on Thursday.
Scotland's George Murray will have the honour of hitting the first tee shot in the 57th edition of the Irish Open at 7.30am on Thursday morning, and with a parade of stars to follow it promises to be a thrilling week.

Senators Want To Put People In Jail For Embedding YouTube Videos
from the not-understanding-the-technology dept
Supporters of this bill claim that all it's really doing is harmonizing US copyright law's civil and criminal sections. After all, the rights afforded under copyright law in civil cases cover a list of rights: reproduce, distribute, prepare derivative works or perform the work. The rules for criminal infringement only cover reproducing and distributing -- but not performing. So, supporters claim, all this does is "harmonize" copyright law and bring the criminal side into line with the civil side by adding "performance rights" to the list of things.
If only it were that simple. But, of course, it's not. First of all, despite claims to the contrary, there's a damn good reason why Congress did not include performance rights as a criminal/felony issue: because who would have thought that it would be a criminal act to perform a work without permission? It could be infringing, but that can be covered by a fine. When we suddenly criminalize a performance, that raises all sorts of questionable issues.
Furthermore, as we suspected, in the full text of the bill, "performance" is not clearly defined. This is the really troubling part. Everyone keeps insisting that this is targeted towards "streaming" websites, but is streaming a "performance"? If so, how does embedding play into this? Is the site that hosts the content guilty of performing? What about the site that merely linked to and/or embedded the video (linking and embedding are technically effectively the same thing). Without clear definitions, we run into problems pretty quickly.
And it gets worse. Because rather than just (pointlessly) adding "performance" to the list, the bill tries to also define what constitutes a potential felony crime in these circumstances:
the offense consists of 10 or more public performances by electronic means, during any 180-day period, of 1 or more copyrighted worksSo yeah. If you embed a YouTube video that turns out to be infringing, and more than 10 people view it because of your link... you could be facing five years in jail. This is, of course, ridiculous, and suggests (yet again) politicians who are regulating a technology they simply do not understand. Should it really be a criminal act to embed a YouTube video, even if you don't know it was infringing...? This could create a massive chilling effect to the very useful service YouTube provides in letting people embed videos.

then I will choose two winners instead of one!
I've purchased many of your items and just love to add another fabulous piece to the collection.
Primary Graffiti
I rated your FLY GUY unit which is my most recent purchase. Fingers and Toes are crossed!
Primary Graffiti
I need this unit because as a 1st year teacher I am always looking for ways to make my learning more visual and more interactive. I find that I rely on worksheets than activities, so having access to activities that are already created would make my life easier (and my kiddos lives more enterataining!).
I'd love this verb unit to makes the learning more hands on and fun for my kiddos.
(I already bought your verb ending, plural and er, est units!)
Verb rocks!! He looks ready to get right into some action. :)
I follow your blog!

The Apple Basket Teacher
I love following your blog and your amazing ideas! thanks :)
Miss Kindergarten
I need this unit because I also do a SUPER HERO ACTION VERB unit that would go perfect with your unit. One activity that I do to teach verbs is: I have a cut out of several super hero's and I have my students create a class book. They each get to pick two super heros. They then create a scene and have to write a sentence about what the super heros are doing. The sentence must include a subject, action verb/s, and a when and where. I would love to have this and I thank you for your hard work!
ReplyDeleteI need this unit because I LOVE LOVE LOVE your SupERheroes Unit (so did my kiddos!) & this matches perfectly!!
Primary Inspired
Who wouldn't need one of your units :) But, I need this one because my students still need to be reminded of the difference between a noun and a verb.

I'd love this unit to go with everything else I got. :)

Take a look at a newspaper page listing stock market prices. You might think that each of the numbers from 1 to 9 would occur equally often among the first digits of all the listed prices. Instead, however, you're very likely to find that numbers starting with 1 come up more often than numbers starting with 2, numbers starting with 2 come up more often than numbers starting with 3, and so on. In fact, 1 comes up about 30 percent of the time - much greater than the expected 11 percent. At the other end, the digit 9 occurs only about 5 percent of the time. The earliest known report of this curious first-digit phenomenon was made by the astronomer and mathematician Simon Newcomb (1835-1909)... | |

I think it's found in Jeph Loeb's unbelievably awesome The Long Halloween, but the single greatest panel in comic book history shows the Joker, tiptoeing through the empty house of Harvey Dent, wearing a Santa hat and goofily singing the following to himself:
Jingle bells, Batman smells
Robin laid and egg
The Batmobile lost a wheel
And the Joker got away…
In terms of meta-jokes, there can be none finer. First time I read those panels, I laughed out loud – not because of the Joker's obvious insanity, but because I immediately went back to the fifth grade, or whatever year it was that I first heard that song. Sung, obviously, to the tune of "Jingle Bells", it stuck with me because A) it was horribly catchy, B) it combined Christmas with Batman, every boy's two favorite things, and C) it was more than slightly irreverent.
For a kid whose rebellious streak began and ended with taking small sips of milk directly from the carton late at night when no one else was awake, this song was a delicious little piece of devilment.
It was also my introduction into the world of Christmas novelty tunes, a world that – too often unfortunately – has expanded considerably over the years.
Novelty songs are taken for granted now, but once upon a time they really were novel because they took the over-inflated sentimentality out of Christmas by poking fun at it. It's hard to be schmaltzy when you're singing songs that seemingly encourage arson in the local hall of education.
(For the record, I found the subversive "Deck the Halls" to be hysterical when I was a kid. My classmates and I used to hum the melody – sans words – while sitting in class during our seventh grade year at Shiloh Middle School. We were stuck in a trailer just outside of the gym that felt more like a Siberian work camp than a classroom on a chilly winter day. I suppose the idea of setting the school on fire was as much for warmth as anything else. But, all that to say – we had a kid get suspended from school for singing the song in the hallway. The principal heard him and decided the song was tantamount to a terrorist threat and she ran his little butt out of school for a few days. Suffice it to say, Christmas cheer went down considerably after that.)
Of course, the novelty song epoch peaked with Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer, a country-inspired ditty that combined a nifty little hook with some naughty little lyrics. Naturally, all of us kids loved it, and we were quite surprised when most of the adults did too.
Who knew geriatricide was so popular?
Heck, that song was so popular that even in the small, ultra-conservative church where I grew up, a place where instruments weren't allowed to be plugged in (not even the organ), someone sang the song as a Christmas special – and got away with it!
That being said, on a dreary, wet December day, a day where there is literally little sunlight, allow me to brighten your life with my list of The Best Christmas Novelty Songs Ever. No, it isn't an authoritative list, and I'll happily take recommendations for alternate titles should you be able to make your case for another song. But this is a pseudo-scientifically compiled list based on literally minutes of searching Google, so you'll really have to come with a strong argument to get me to change my mind (or at the very least point out a song that I like that I forgot about).
So, without further ado, here are my five Best Christmas Novelty Songs Ever, from least to greatest:
5. The Restroom Door Said Gentlemen (parody of God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen): the link is to Bob Rivers' version, but I first heard it on Randy & Spiff in the morning, back in the days when Atlanta had decent radio stations. Randy Cook and Spiff Carner were the morning hosts on Fox 97.1 and they were known for their comedy bits, one of which happened to be parody songs by a group called The Shower Stall Singers (boy, am I dating myself – and the sad part is, I didn't have to Google one bit of that info).
Anyway, during Christmas one year they trotted this song out and my mother nearly drove off the road. We were rolling with laughter. To this day, it's one of the most memorable radio bits I've ever heard – and no, I don't know why that is, other than I'm just weird.
4. Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer: I've probably covered this enough in the preceding paragraphs, but still, this song stands out for its sheer ubiquity when I was a kid. Did you know that it was originally recorded in 1979? I didn't either. The things you learn…
3. The Hippopotamus Song: the linked video is a strange bit of noir absurdity, but it matches well with what is easily one of the silliest, strangest, and catchiest of all Christmas novelty songs.
My grandfather, Pop Emmett, thought this song was hilarious and somehow that thought infected that entire side of my family. I seem to recall that there were at least two Christmases in which this song played a prominent role of some sort, including one Christmas where my mother lost her mind and sang it repeatedly for some unknown reason. The things you remember. On a personal note, my favorite word in any Christmas song, ever, is "rhinoceroususes."
2. Run Rudolph Run: ah, the inimitable Chuck Berry. It's a little slower than I actually remember it; for some reason, I recall the song has having a scorching guitar intro and then keeping a frantic pace throughout. Maybe I consumed too much sugar as a kid, because the linked version is about half the speed I remember. Oh well – the song still stands the test of time, even if it does sound like every other Chuck Berry song. Plus, it's a heck of a lot more fun compared to the Gene Autry song about Rudolph.
(What? Don't look at me like that. I still love the original Rudolph, but come on – Berry's song is easily the more fun one.)
1. The Chipmunk Song (Christmas Don't Be Late): the original version is still the best, and the artwork shown in the YouTube clip is exactly the artwork I remember for the Chipmunks. When you're a kid, there's just something priceless about the sound of those little rodents singing – a fact that has recently been re-emphasized in my household through my kids. We put in the big screen version of Alvin, Simon and Theodore just last night, and my kids bobbed along and sang happily with the version of The Chipmunk Song that they re-mixed for the movie. It's still catchy, but has a much edgier sound, which is absolutely ridiculous to type about a song performed by high-pitched tree rats, but somehow summarizes life as a parent.
So what do you think? Are your favorites on this list? Which ones did I miss? Let me know in the comments below!

Mouse for pike
1 Attachment(s)
From another thread...
One of my favorite dries for Pike (and trout for that matter). #6 Bomber hook squirrel fur for tail Make 'em as big and busshy as you can cast. Plop one down just out from a weed bed and hang on !! For mice, I like to plop i down (no finesse here). Give it a twitch. The hammer handles will often hit right away. Then !!! slowly we see the reeds parting fabout 20 ft away (the water is about 2 feet deep there). A lunker had heard the fly land. As the pike starts coming out of it's lair, I'll twitch the fly again. Once the fish is still about 10 ft from my fly, kopping strip retrieves about 8 inches at a time. The bow wave lifts and the pike goes for the kill. Don't stop !! We've taken over 25 lbs with this tactic ... I prefer to short strike and hook in the lip as I don't use steel or wire leaders. It's heart stopping fun. |

5.0 and 5.7 Discussion, odd knock in Cadillac Engine Discussion; When I start the car, it does not knock. When I put it into reverse, however, a low knock occurs. ...

odd knock
When I start the car, it does not knock. When I put it into reverse, however, a low knock occurs. It does not seem to occur from the engine, sounds more like it might be right below me. Almost sounds like it's in the car. Really doesnt do this when the car is put into D, maybe one.
I was worried about the compression/cylinders at first but I tested the acceleration and it is normal, gas mileage normal, engine smooth as silk. This noise doesn't really seem to be coming from the engine itself.
Any ideas? Motor mount? Or is it the bearing maybe and I'm in real trouble?

Re: odd knock
The fact it really only happens when you put it in Reverse may be a good clue there might be something up with the tranny. If it were a bearing or something of that nature though, you'd know it for sure.
Re: odd knock
Yeah I tried to catalog everything today, but I don't know:
Shakes at idle when in Drive or Reverse (but not P) ie stopped at light with foot on service break
When pressing down on accelerator from stop, "staggers" almost to get going but then goes perfeclty smoothly, accelerates fine, no knocking or slamming from engine:
0-60 is 14 seconds which I think is the same as the original consumer reports road test back in '87 so I really doubt it's compression
knock, if I could pin point it, seems to come either from right below me or right in back of the dashboard, goes like this
release service break in D, press gas low *THUD* *stagger* *car shaky* then car goes forward normally
shift from P to R, holding down service break, low *THUD* *THUD* *THUD* repeatedly *car shakey*
any speed above, say, 5 MPH, no one would know there was a problem
tranny isn't slipping between gears (or doesnt seem to be), still maybe only the low band is going
I've never had a bearing go so I don't know what it sounds like...would it be knocking loudly at all speeds, or running really badly...
my problem comes up only in parking lots and stop lights, never on the road.
Frankly I'd be really relieved if it's the transmission, talking hundreds instead of thousands for a new engine
Probably going to take it in to someone who can fix it on Thursday, I just wanted to see if anyone had ideas since I'm going to try not to be taken for a ride ("ohhh of course you need a new engine!!!") - Sponsored Links Remove Advertisements

A 43-year-old Mesa woman was arrested Tuesday on suspicion of child abuse after police say she left her 6-year-old child in a park for four hours so the mother could have sex with two men, a court document says.
A witness reported that the woman, identified as Laurie Lee Kelly, left her child in Evergreen Park near Country Club and University drives with two transients who were drinking beer, Maricopa County Superior Court documents say.
The witness asked the child if she knew where her mother was, and the child didn't, the document says.
When police arrived at the park, Kelly, who is an instructional assistant with Mesa Public Schools, was found sitting in a grassy area with a man, the document says.
According to the document, Kelly told police that she bought beers for random strangers and asked them to watch her daughter while she "went to make some money." Kelly said she had sex with two men, police reported.
According to the document, the witness told police several different people watched over the child for four hours in which the child had no water and no way to escape the heat.
Kelly told police she was worried about her daughter and knew she had placed her in harm's way. She told officers she had "a manic sexual rage inside of her, which she cannot control," according to the documents.
Mesa Public Schools officials said Kelly worked in the class, much like a teacher's aide, at Whitman Elementary School near Country Club Drive and McKellips Road.
"The criminal allegations against her are serious, and if substantiated would be grounds for immediate termination per district policy," Helen Hollands, director of communications and marketing at Mesa Public Schools, said in a written statement.
Hollands said Kelly has been assigned to home with pay.

Did Black Eyed Peas' Will.i.am Forget Lyrics Onstage
What do you do if you are a famous recording artist and in the middle of performing before thousands of fans, you forget the lyrics to a song that you have performed hundreds of times? Well, if you are Black Eyed Peas' Will.i.am, you open up your cell phone and read them.
Fast-forward this Black Eyed Peas performance with Belgian MC Stromae to the one-minute mark to see Will.i.am checking out (check it out, check it out) his cellphone for what appears to be a little help with the lyrics. As the Hollywood Reporter points out, the Peas were doing a mashup of their own "Don't Stop the Party" with the rapper's "Alors on Dance," but Will seems to need to bone up a bit before launching into his own part — you know, the one he wrote. (Though it sure looks like it, we can't say for sure that he's reading the lyrics — Will has been known to pull out his phone during a performance to send a Tweet or two.)
For the record, lyrics to "Don't Stop the Party" include "Now baby don't you stop it, stop it… Don't stop the party!" But the part Will was probably having trouble remembering is the verbose rap: "You can't hack my digital/Future Aboriginal/Get up off my genitals/I stay on that pinnacle/Kill you with my lyricals/Call me verbal criminal" etc.
The performance aired on French TV show Taratata, which is clearly in need of some Teleprompters. Will probably wouldn't have forgotten the words to "My Humps," but the BEPs don't perform that bit of classic American literature live anymore.

Spring is learning time for USC defensive backs
March 27th, 2014, 8:06 pm by By RICH HAMMONDPerhaps, instead of a mid-practice water break, USC's defensive backs should get nap time.
The Trojans are young in the secondary this spring. One freshman (cornerback Chris Hawkins) and two sophomores (safeties Su'a Cravens and Leon McQuay) are holding down starting spots, although that will change in the fall, when senior cornerback Josh Shaw recovers from a stress fracture in his left foot.
Shaw walked around the practice field Thursday without a protective boot for the first time this spring, but coaches still don't know whether he will be able to participate in drills this spring.
They'd like him to, but they're also happy giving reps to Hawkins and Kevon Seymour, particularly since Cravens and McQuay seem to be holding down the safety spots nicely.
Cravens started at safety for most of last season and McQuay contributed in a reserve role and played special teams. As sophomores, secondary coach Keith Heyward said, they will need to show more.

Neurosky's Mindset
As unlikely as a mind-control gadget seems, one of world's biggest tech companies is putting its weight behind the science-fictional technology. Toshiba announced in March that it's partnering with Santa Clara, Calif.-based start-up Neurosky to develop and distribute the so-called Mindset, a $199 bluetooth headset that lets users control software with their mental state. To be sure, the Mindset–planned for a summer release–isn't meant to replace a mouse or keyboard. Its single metal sensor is designed to pick up general states of relaxation or focus, allowing developers to integrate those mental states into games.

Cahill says: AdvertisementMy idea of using second hand books came around after doing research into common unwanted objects. One of the most common unwanted objects that can be found at either charity shops, car boot sales and sometimes on the streets are books. I discovered that the glue in old books make them extremely difficult to recycle. Aware of this I challenged myself to turn the second hand books that I had been collecting, into desirable objects such as furniture, lighting and ornaments. Her exact methods aren't clear, but it appears she takes the covers off the books, then cuts out the shape on two or more books, then fans them around a pipe or existing glass flower vase. Finally, some glue and clamps and about 12 hours to dry should finish off the project. See more photos of her book vase creations and even a small table over at the Dezeen design magazine.

Brown Pelicans Rehabbing At SeaWorld
Tuesday, August 9, 2011
Aired 8/9/11
Eight young brown pelicans found in Arizona are being nursed back to health at SeaWorld San Diego.
Eight young brown pelicans found in Arizona are being nursed back to health at SeaWorld San Diego.
The sea birds, including one with an amputated wing, were brought to SeaWorld by the Tucson Wildlife Center and Liberty Wildlife Center.
Brown pelicans are fish eaters which dive-bomb their prey and are normally found along the Pacific and Gulf coasts.
Kelly Terry with SeaWorld said the birds found in Arizona were likely blown off course by monsoonal winds.
Terry said if their plumage improves quickly, all but the one-winged pelican will be released in a few days. The one that lost its wing will stay in captivity.
She said SeaWorld has treated more than 100 sick or injured brown pelicans so far this year.

Now he's posted the first image from behind-the-scenes of the Patrick Lussier directed revenge-thriller that features the legendary Tom ("Thrill Me") Atkins on set. Atkins also starred in Lussier and Farmer's My Bloody Valentine 3D. The story centers on a man (Nicolas Cage) driven by rage who is chasing the people who killed his daughter and kidnapped her baby. The vendetta/rescue spins out of control as the chase gets bloodier by the mile, leaving bodies strewn along the highway. Summit will release the film in theaters February 11, 2011.

is clever and brave and true (on the inside, anyway). And she's about to become your new best friend.
Annemarie Wilcox, or Shug as her family calls her, is beginning to think there's nothing worse than being twelve. She's too tall, too freckled, and way too flat-chested. Shug is sure that there's not one good or amazing thing about her. And now she has to start junior high, where the friends she counts most dear aren't acting so dear anymore -- especially Mark, the boy she's known her whole life through. Life is growing up all around her, and all Shug wants is for things to be like they used to be. How is a person supposed to prepare for what happens tomorrow when there's just no figuring out today?

Others, however, are more positive:"I am thrilled when I see these pictures," says Gary Dakin, the head of Ford +, the Ford division that represents some of the world's top plus-size models. "Firstly, it shows that these girls can work with great photographers and amazing magazines like V and be taken more seriously for the work they do. For my girls, it means that the word 'plus' can — hopefully — go away soon since they are now working in every major magazine in the world...Glamour, French Vogue and a host of other publications have ensured that this segment of the industry is here to stay and a force to be reckoned with." [Telegraph]AdvertisementKelly Cutrone pals around with top-flight photojournalist Mary Ellen Mark and legendary backstage photographer Roxanne Lowit. We so want to be a fly on the wall at their lunches. [The Cut]For her second Vogue Italia cover, Karlie Kloss took a staged — but very real-looking — series of falls in a studio made to look like a runway. Welcome to show season! [Mother Model Management's Photo Stream]"Karlie Kloss smoldered with the same intensity and wide-eyed look as a young Lauren Bacall," says John Galliano, of the 17-year-old model's spring Dior campaign. Kloss also nabbed the upcoming Hermès campaign. Meanwhile, Galliano also announced that the next installment in the brand's ongoing "Lady Rouge" online video series starring Marion Cotillard, will be a music video. Franz Ferdinand wrote the music, and Cotillard herself will do the singing. What this has to do with handbags remains to be seen. [WWD]Chanel is marketing the temporary tattoos seen on its spring runway for mass consumption. You'll get 55 tattoos for £49. (But the feeling of being 11 again is priceless.) [Elle UK]St. John is sick to death of Angelina Jolie's face. "[Jolie] overshadowed the brand. We wanted to make a clean break from actresses and steer away from blondes and cleanse the palette. We needed to show a modern point of view of St. John," says CEO Glenn McMahon. "We have evolved." Naturally, red-haired model Karen Elson was in order. [WWD]Bulgari has no such apparent concern about working with an actress. The luxury label remains so proud of its unreleased campaign featuring Julianne Moore that it's put out a second behind-the-scenes teaser video. As videos go, it's kind of meaningless — but pretty! We see Moore flicking through a rack of clothing, and putting an emerald bracelet on a cockatiel. [YouTube]All this talk of ads — some still forthcoming — has us nervous in light of an inexplicable item in today's news. Writes Women's Wear Daily, "The fashion world may be enamored with bloggers - but not when they post future advertising images without permission. Images from the spring-summer campaigns from the likes of Dior, Balenciaga, Celine and others have been circulating on Modelinia, Fashionologie and other sites this week, ahead of their appearances in February magazines, causing puzzlement and consternation at some design houses." Puzzlement? Consternation? These are ads. Which blogs like this one end up disseminating for free. Advertising has always generated media commentary. Yet Katie Grand was this week forced to apologize for running images of Givenchy's campaign on Love magazine's blog; we're puzzled that any brand would have the sheer nerve to complain. [WWD]Perhaps related: stylist Venetia Scott says that she finds magazines "a bit tired." Nor does she really buy magazines, or look at them. This is partly because of the restrictions on creativity that the fashion glossies' increasing reliance on advertising has fostered: "When I first started at [British] Vogue, you'd get all the clothes in, have your rail and you'd make looks. Whereas now the designers do the looks. You can't mix Chanel now with other designers — the power of advertising is that if you don't do it in the way that they want you to shoot it then the magazines become scared that they'll lose the cash. When I first started there wasn't really any bargaining power between the advertisers and editorial; they were two completely separate things. Now it's 'I'll take out a couple of pages and you give me a couple of pages.'" [Ponystep]Gian Luigi Paracchini's Vita Prada, an unauthorized biography of Miuccia Prada, has become a publishing sensation in Italy. The best-seller gives an account of Prada's first meeting with her eventual husband, Patrizio Bertelli, at a trade show. Bertelli was selling handbags, and Prada walked up to him and said, "You're ripping off my bags." Prada says of the book, "I don't think I'm as big a bitch as you think, but I had fun reading it." [Opera Chic]Matthew Williamson is taking his uniquely well-developed sense of color to men's wear. His first men's capsule collection for those with a Y chromosome hits stores next month. "It's a nice change, from a design point of view, that I can put the garments on myself and work on a product that's appropriate for me," says the designer. His men's stuff will start at around $310 for a printed wool scarf. [WWD]Corinne Grassini, the designer behind the Society for Rational Dress, is launching a lower-priced line, SfRD. [WWD]As is London-based Canadian Mark Fast. (Fast is otherwise known as the knitwear designer who put a couple plus-size models in his last runway show, and dealt with his stylist subsequently quitting.) [WWD]And perhaps now Fast will be otherwise known as the emerging designer who refused to lend his clothes to Lady Gaga. "I love her music and that Bad Romance song is stuck in my head all the time, but we don't necessarily have to accept everyone just because they are famous," explains Fast. "My work is about a lifestyle. It's not fast-food fashion. It's not about trends, it's about classic, it's about the body, it's about beauty. Maybe that gets lost in the picture with certain celebrities." [Metro]Gaga's appearance on Bravo's Launch My Line involved her lecturing the designers on the meaning of avant-garde. "For me, when I'm thinking about either designing a piece, or choosing a piece to wear, I think about a shape. If you as a designer — if your aesthetic were to walk through a wooden door, what shape would it leave?" Here the Lady paused for emphasis. "I think it's also important to be consistent with yourselves. Just because we're doing a heightened avant-garde sense of who we are doesn't mean we start shredding things and making, you know, giant hats — it still has to be you." She then selected a bolt of red PVC — strongly reminiscent of the outfit she chose to meet the Queen — for the designers to work with. [Bravo]Jason Wu is doing a "collaboration" with a maker of digital cameras. [Sassybella]This Friday, outlet site TheOutnet.com is teaming up with Lucky editors to offer certain garments in a reverse-auction. [WWD]Pre-fall 2010 for Louis Vuitton apparently means mink leg-warmers and mini-capes. [TheLifeFiles]Puma has sold its majority stake in Hussein Chalayan's namesake brand. The buyer? Chalayan himself. [WWD]Jeremy Scott will be showing his next collection in New York. The designer had previously shown in Paris. [@ITSJEREMYSCOTT]Janie Bryant got a book deal.

He didn't help us win this one, which for a coach is just as bad as helping us lose. The inability to adjust to pressure and attack the middle of the field was why they won( they did it) and we lost (we didn't).
My motto was always to keep swinging. Whether I was in a slump or feeling badly or having trouble off the field, the only thing to do was keep swinging. -Hank Aaron

Re: Fire cam
That was pathetic. Just all around pathetic 3rd string qb. I've been a huge defender of harbs and flacco but that challenge was completely unwarranted. No adjustments at all, and flacco seemed to have time to throw so it seemed to be the play calling. With Cameron calling the plays I'm losing confidence moving forward, what happened to the no huddle he was fighting for so bad on Halloween?
Re: Fire cam
Lots of blame to go around. Cam and Flacco included.

Re: Fire cam
Throw everything deep despite Flacco's accuracy issues, don't use no huddle at home, don't mix up formations. Plus, the early drops in the first quarter hurt as did Flacco's misses of open receivers - these aren't on Cam, obviously..
Meanwhile, the defense was nonexistent after the team went up 13-3. No pressure. Don't cover the middle at all. Heck, the Steelers blew two sure TDs.Al
You have got to be joking.
Flacco wasnt great, but how many 3rd downs are we going to see where every receiver is 30 yards down the field? How many more games where no one can get open?
Flacco wasnt good. Im not saying he was.
However, this offensive game plan was dumb.
GOTA pointed out in the game thread that the steelers have 1 good corner back and he was hurt most of the game...and they still blanketed the Raven's receivers.

Re: Fire cam
Not a fan of Cam, and he certainly didn't do a ton to help, but when you have a QB that was jittery all game and missed a ton of throws, I don't know how much you can expect.
I'm honestly shocked Joe played like he did.Although Walsh's system of offense can compensate for lack of talent; however, defense is a different story. According to Walsh, talent on defense was essential and could not be compensated for. What did Walsh do in 1981? He acquired physical and talented players on defense.

Camera Phones to Shoot Raw in Future?
OmniVision has announced a new 1/4-inch, 5-megapixel RAW CMOS image sensor based on its 1.4-micron OmniBSI backside illumination (BSI) technology. OmniVision's 1.4-micron OmniBSI pixel allegedly delivers best-in-class low light sensitivity (680-mV/lux-sec) and a small footprint, making it ideal for the ultra-compact camera modules used in mobile phones and notebooks. The sensor provides 10-bit images in RAW RGB format with complete user control over formatting and output data transfer. It is also capable of recording 720p HD video at 60 frames per second (fps) and 1080p HD video at 30 fps. The 720p/60 HD video is captured in full field of view with 2 x 2 binning, which doubles the sensitivity and improves the signal-to-noise ratio.
Omnivision Press Release
OmniVision Introduces 1/4-inch, 5-Megapixel RAW Sensor for High-Performance Mobile Applications
OmniBSI Delivers Sensitivity and Performance to Enable High Frame Rate HD Video
BARCELONA, Spain, Feb. 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/—Mobile World Congress—OmniVision Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: OVTI), a leading developer of advanced digital imaging solutions, today announced a new 1/4-inch, 5-megapixel RAW CMOS image sensor based on its 1.4-micron OmniBSI™ backside illumination (BSI) technology. The OV5647 is a cost-effective, high-performance mobile imaging solution, offering the performance and size benefits of BSI technology while allowing mobile phone designs to utilize existing baseband or applications processors for image processing functions.
OmniVision's 1.4-micron OmniBSI pixel delivers best-in-class low light sensitivity (680-mV/lux-sec), low profile z-height and a small footprint, making it ideal for the ultra-compact camera modules used in mobile phones and notebooks. The superior pixel performance of the OV5647 enables 720p HD video at 60 frames per second (fps) and 1080p HD video at 30 fps, with complete user control over formatting and output data transfer. The 720p/60 HD video is captured in full field of view with 2 x 2 binning, which doubles the sensitivity and improves the signal-to-noise ratio. Additionally, a post-binning re-sampling filter function unique to the OV5647 removes image artifacts around edges and minimizes spatial artifacts to deliver even sharper, crisper color images.
"According to industry research firm iSuppli Corporation, 5-megapixel cameras will account for over one-third of all camera phones by 2012," explained Vinoo Margasahayam, product marketing manager for OmniVision. "The OV5647's 1/4-inch optical format is well positioned to target the design-in sweet spot for mainstream handsets for three key reasons. First, it enables the industry-standard 8.5 x 8.5-mm module size with a z-height of less than 5-mm, offering miniaturization that is important for thinner camera phones. Second, the OV5647 is optimal for 720p/60 HD video, which is a key requirement in today's handsets. Third, advanced technologies such as OmniBSI are transforming the image quality of mobile cameras, enabling mobile phone manufacturers to compete not just based on features, but on the camera performance."
Because BSI technology uses a technique that inverts the sensor to collect light from the backside, it offers the most direct path for light to strike the pixel. This results in a greatly improved fill factor, higher quantum efficiency and significantly reduced cross-talk, which translates into greater sensitivity and better color reproduction, compared to front side illumination (FSI) image sensors.
As a RGB RAW image sensor, the OV5647 offers a cost-efficient solution for handset customers looking to implement a low-power, dual-chip solution with image signal processing in the applications or baseband processor. The sensor supports a digital video parallel port or two-lane MIPI® interface, and provides full-frame, windowed or binned 10-bit images in RAW RGB format with complete user control over formatting and output data transfer. It offers all required automatic image control functions, including automatic exposure control, automatic white balance, automatic band filter, automatic 50/60-Hz luminance detection, and automatic black level calibration. The OV5647 is sampling now and will enter mass production in July 2010.

Famous Short Candy Poems. Short Candy Poetry by Famous Poets. A collection of the all-time best Candy short poems
Ah, you're just a copy of all the candy bars I've ever eaten.
Handy Pandy, Jack-a-dandy,Loves plum cake and sugar candy.He bought some at a grocer's shop,And out he came, hop, hop, hop!
When the shoe strings break On both your shoes And you're in a hurry- That's the blues. When you go to buy a candy bar And you've lost the dime you had- Slipped through a hole in your pocket somewhere- That's the blues, too, and bad!
THIS section is a Christmas tree: Loaded with pretty toys for you. Behold the blocks, the Noah's arks, The popguns painted red and blue. No solemn pine-cone forest-fruit, But silver horns and candy sacks And many little tinsel hearts And cherubs pink, and jumping-jacks. For every child a gift, I hope. The doll upon the topmost bough Is mine. But all the rest are yours. And I will light the candles now.

Don't you just love a pretty, colorful silk scarf? Did you know that it's actually very easy to dye your own? All you need is the right tools and some basic know-how.
There are many, many different techniques for "marble" dyeing fabric. I like to experiment with different folding and tie-dyeing methods. Also, there are many ways to set the dye so your final scarf won't bleed. The acid dyes I use have to be heat set. This can be done by steaming your scarves, heating in the oven or with your microwave. I personally stay away from microwaving silk scarves because it's too unpredictable (and can burn up your microwave). To begin, cover your table with plastic and make sure you wear old clothes!
