Margins continued to improve since the end of January, particularly in the second half of 2012 with historically strong profitability being projected for Q3 and Q4 which are now around the 98th percentile of the past 5 years. The improvement stems mainly from an increase in deferred hog prices, with feed costs contained by an offsetting rise in meal and drop in corn over the past two weeks. December export data continue to show strong demand for pork, with the US Meat Export Federation reporting 2011 pork exports totaled 2.255 MMT valued at $6.11 billion, breaking the previous volume record of 2.052 MMT and shattering the value record of $4.88 billion—both established in 2008. Year-over-year, pork exports were up 18% in volume and 28% in value, and equated to 27.5% of total production when including both muscle cuts and variety meat. While this may be a tough act to follow in 2012, there is general optimism with improving economic indicators that demand will remain strong and pork competitively priced. February's WASDE report tightened… Get the Complete Report »
Margins continued to erode since the end of January, deteriorating to around breakeven through the first half of 2012, while the second half of the year still offers marginal profitability. From a historical standpoint, current profit margins are well below average throughout the year as milk prices plummeted over the past month. Block and barrel spot cheddar prices remain depressed below $1.50/lb. while spot butter prices are down sharply from January and are trading below $1.40/lb. for the first time in nearly two years. Spot whey prices have also been under pressure, which has likewise contributed to the decline of Class III futures at the CME. USDA revised down their 2012 all milk price forecast due to higher production estimates. Milk production is forecast to increase by 1.1% this year to 199 billion pounds. Feed costs remain in check, although there is concern over old-crop corn supplies. USDA revised down ending stocks 45 million bushels in the February WASDE due to an increased export forecast, and the world supply/demand… Get the Complete Report »
Finishing margins continued to strengthen since the end of January as feed costs declined slightly while cattle prices have held relatively steady. On a relative basis, margins remain the strongest in nearby marketing periods where feeder cattle and feed costs have already been realized. The strong rally in live cattle futures over the past two months has added significantly to profit margins for feedlots where the revenue side of the margin equation is still open. While the rally has paused, there remains optimism that beef demand will stay strong in 2012 despite higher prices. The US Meat Export Federation reported beef exports finished the year at 1.287 MMT valued at $5.42 billion. This broke the 2003 volume record of 1.274 MMT and easily surpassed the 2010 value record of $4.08 billion. Export volume was 21% larger than in 2010, with value up 33%. USDA released their February WASDE report, highlighting a further cut in corn ending stocks to 801 million bushels representing 6.3% of annual usage. A 50-million bushel increase to the export forecast was the primary reason for the decline, as USDA cut… Get the Complete Report »
Margins have remained relatively flat since the beginning of February as both futures' prices and basis levels have stayed range bound. The USDA recently estimated domestic corn ending stocks 45 million bushels lower than the January estimate at 801 million bushels. This came as a result of an increase in the export forecast of 50 million bushels to 1.7 billion bushels, and an increase in imports of 5 million bushels. The export forecast has been raised by 100 million bushels over the last few months, as both the sales pace and the shipping pace have remained strong relative to historical measures. Each year at the end of February, USDA publishes baseline projections for the following decade which include a snapshot of economist's view of current and future expectations to domestic supply and demand. Although the number will be updated on the 24th of February, current acreage expectations in the baseline report estimate the U.S. will plant 94 million acres of corn for the 2012/13 crop year. If realized, that would be the largest seeded acreage since 1944. That said the first official acreage estimate will come… Get the Complete Report »
Both nearby as well as deferred soybean margins have increased moderately since the beginning of February, as both futures' prices and basis values have risen. The USDA recently estimated domestic soybean ending stocks at 275 million bushels, unchanged from the January estimate. Spot crush margins improved over the period, as product values outpaced the gains in soybean prices. NOPA recently reported the January crush to be 142.8 million bushels which implies a total crush figure around 149 million bushels, as the NOPA figure includes roughly 95% of all crushing facilities. The cumulative crush stands at 710 million bushels for the crop year to date which is roughly 4% lower than last year's level versus the USDA's estimate of a slowing of 2%. Soybean oil stocks were reported to be 2.098 million pounds which came in higher than the trade estimate. This is the third consecutive month of higher soybean oil stocks. The increase has been attributed to a slowing in biodiesel demand. On the global front, USDA lowered both Argentina and Brazil's soybean production estimates in the last WASDE… Get the Complete Report »
Margins have fallen since the beginning of February, as futures' prices weakened. The USDA recently estimated domestic wheat ending stocks to be 845 million bushels, 25 million bushels lower than the January estimate. The reduction came from an increase in projected exports of 25 million bushels to 975 million bushels with strong sales and increased demand out of Mexico and South Korea. Domestic weather continues to be above-normal in relation to temperatures and below-normal with respect to precipitation. This still leaves the dormant crop at risk of winter-kill if temperatures move lower. On the global front, the Black Sea region continues to be aggressive competitors with respect to the export market. Russia has yet to announce any restrictions or duty on exports, which has kept prices at bay. ABARES recently estimated Australian production at 29.5 million tons, up… Get the Complete Report »

Project Lead
Dave's roots with Van Dam are definitely worthy of mention; Dave began building boats professionally with Steve Van Dam in 1987. Dave was, in fact, the youngest employee at Van Dam at that time.
Dave remained with Van Dam until 1993, at which time he decided to take a sabbatical from his responsibilities at Van Dam. Dave chose to transfer his skills of handcrafted woodworking to homeowners, whose refined tastes for custom high-end woodworking he could fulfill, a skill that he continues to this day.
Dave made his return to Van Dam in 2013 and now is fond of stating, "When I first started in 1987 I was the youngest member of the crew, and when I returned in 2013, I was the oldest!"
As if Dave's woodworking skills and demands are not enough to occupy his time, he has been involved in the rescue of abandoned Doberman Pinchers since 1977. Dave and his wife, Cheryl, can be found cruising the lakes and rivers of northern Michigan on their PWCs during the spring, summer, and fall. In his off time, Dave enjoys working on his home and lake cottage. He loves spending time in the woods and cutting firewood.
Dave is a graduate of the University of Michigan-Flint, where he earned his B.A. while majoring in Physics with a minor in math.
- Started at Van Dam: The first time in 1987 and returned in 2013
- Born in: Flint, Michigan
- Graduated: University of Michigan-Flint
- Favorite projects to work on: Dave enjoys the variety of the projects that he works on.
- Favorite Fundamental: #16- Place Your Family First in your Life. Dave often brings his special needs brother-in-law, Jon, to work so that Jon may catch his bus to his workshop. His brother-in-law loves spending time in the Van Dam shop with our crew. He is a part of Dave's family, therefore, he is a part of our Van Dam family.
- Favorite thing about working at Van Dam: Working with people that give a (Van) Dam.

The Indiana Supreme Court has announced amendments to various court rules, including adding language about technological competence and new guidance on judge disqualification procedures.
An amendment to Indiana Rule of Professional Conduct 1.1 specifically requires attorneys to "keep abreast of" the technological advances in the practice of law, specifically the "benefits and risks associated with the technology relevant to the lawyer's practice." Similarly, Indiana Code of Judicial Conduct Rule 2.5 has been amended with identical language for judges.
Additionally, under an amendment to Judicial Conduct Rule 2.11, litigants and their lawyers can agree to allow a judge to waive an otherwise required disqualification and instead allow the judge to participate in the court proceeding. The only exception to this amendment is if a judge must be disqualified due to bias, prejudice or conflict of interest.
However, the amendment to Rule 2.11 also calls for judges to disqualify themselves, even over the agreement of the parties, "when reasonable minds with knowledge of all the relevant circumstances disclosed by a reasonable inquiry would conclude that the judge's integrity, impartiality, or independence to serve as a judge is impaired." Further, "a judge should be especially cautious of accepting a waiver from a self-represented litigant when the opposing party is represented by counsel," according to the amendment.
Finally, the high court made amendments to two Indiana Rules of Trial Procedure. First, an amendment to Trial Rule 4.1(B) now requires a copy of the summons and complaint in a case to be mailed to the last known address of the person being served if copies of those documents were left at the person's home or with their agent.
Secondly, the amendment to Rule 69(A) requires the sale of real estate to be conducted under the same rules and procedures applicable to foreclosure of mortgages without right of redemption after the sale. Previously, an exemption to that rule was provided for requirements of appraisal and that the property sells for two-thirds or more of its appraised values.
All rules amendments will take place on Jan. 1, 2018, except for the disqualification amendments to Rule 2.11, which took effect July 31.

When I was a freshman in college, I was assigned "Reflections on the Revolution in France" by Edmund Burke. I loathed the book. Burke argued that each individual's private stock of reason is small and that political decisions should be guided by the accumulated wisdom of the ages. Change is necessary, Burke continued, but it should be gradual, not disruptive. For a young democratic socialist, hoping to help begin the world anew, this seemed like a reactionary retreat into passivity.
Over the years, I have come to see that Burke had a point. The political history of the 20th century is the history of social-engineering projects executed by well-intentioned people that began well and ended badly. There were big errors like communism, but also lesser ones, like a Vietnam War designed by the best and the brightest, urban renewal efforts that decimated neighborhoods, welfare policies that had the unintended effect of weakening families and development programs that left a string of white elephant projects across the world.
These experiences drove me toward the crooked timber school of public philosophy: Michael Oakeshott, Isaiah Berlin, Edward Banfield, Reinhold Niebuhr, Friedrich Hayek, Clinton Rossiter and George Orwell. These writers — some left, some right — had a sense of epistemological modesty. They knew how little we can know. They understood that we are strangers to ourselves and society is an immeasurably complex organism. They tended to be skeptical of technocratic, rationalist planning and suspicious of schemes to reorganize society from the top down....
I worry that we're operating far beyond our economic knowledge. Every time the administration releases an initiative, I read 20 different economists with 20 different opinions. I worry that we lack the political structures to regain fiscal control. Deficits are exploding, and the president clearly wants to restrain them. But there's no evidence that Democrats and Republicans in Congress have the courage or the mutual trust required to share the blame when taxes have to rise and benefits have to be cut.
All in all, I can see why the markets are nervous and dropping. And it's also clear that we're on the cusp of the biggest political experiment of our lifetimes. If Obama is mostly successful, then the epistemological skepticism natural to conservatives will have been discredited. We will know that highly trained government experts are capable of quickly designing and executing top-down transformational change. If they mostly fail, then liberalism will suffer a grievous blow, and conservatives will be called upon to restore order and sanity.
It'll be interesting to see who's right. But I can't even root for my own vindication. The costs are too high. I have to go to the keyboard each morning hoping Barack Obama is going to prove me wrong.

Thief steals $2,600 Cartier sunglasses off man's face in Westland
WESTLAND, Mich. (FOX 2) - A pair of expensive Cartier glasses were stolen right off of a man's face in Westland.
"He rips them off his face and then tries to leave the gas station," said Sgt. Robert Wilkie, Westland police.
Video shows the suspect inside a BP gas station at Wayne and Warren a few weeks ago steal the $2,600 glasses.
"He tried to do it in a manner where he was already trying to move toward the exit when he did so," Wilkie said.
Wilkie says at 6:30 p.m. Nov. 4, a couple stopped into the gas station to use the restroom then decided to buy a few things.
But while standing in line the suspect can be seen in the video taking them off the man's face.
Wilkie says the owner of those Cartier glasses wouldn't let them go without a fight but the suspect got away with them.
Forget larceny, police say it is considered strong-arm robbery and the suspect could go to prison for years for this felony.
"He did not try to be secretive or discreet about it," Wilkie said. "It's pretty ridiculous that someone would feel comfortable enough to try to get away with this."
Police say the thin man appears to be about 18 years old, standing between 5 feet 10 inches and 6 feet tall. He can be seen wearing a "Legend" jersey and light, ripped jeans.
"He has some braided hair that sticks up that might be a decent way to identify him," Wilkie said. "I would suggest having some morals and not off of people's faces."

To quote National Party Leader Christopher Luxon this morning:
"What I've tried to say consistently is that I've got nothing in common with Tamaki. I think they're crazy, I don't think they're serious, I don't think they're going to make it and you saw that coalition fall apart if you read between the lines".
So……………… I guess that is it for the George Good / Grant King-affiliated New Nation Party, Vision NZ, and the Freedom's Party.

The Italian Game is considered a sound but quiet opening without early trades, giving rise to rich positions where plans are more important than forced variations - in short, an ideal avenue to outplay your opponent without having to learn much theory. But how should you approach new positions and keep a clear head in view of so many playable possibilities? The best way is this: you sit down next to a world class grandmaster and just listen to him! In a total of nine video clips, top ten player Wesley So talks to IM Oliver Reeh, explaining his personal preferences as Black in the Italian game.
The videos are structured according to specific concepts and ideas.
Should Black play ...a6 to allow the retreat ...Ba7 or rather ...a5?
What's the best way to meet White's plan with Bg5, be it with or without short castling?
When is it possible to unleash the early raid ...Ng4 followed by ...f5?
What are benefits of the knight manoeuvre Nc6-e7-g6 combined with Nf6-h5?
Can one do without ...d6 and play ...d5 rightaway to sharpen up the game immediately?
These and many more features the grandmaster explains for Black, providing his White perspective too - as a top gun, So of course employs the Italian with both colours! By the way, directly after these recordings were made Wesley So played the London Chess Classic 2017 where he defeated ex-world champion Vishy Anand as black, employing the topical ...a5 (instead of ...a6) which of course is also treated on this DVD. Plans, tricks and subtleties in the Italian Game, well-structured and conceptual, explained by a world-class grandmaster - this DVD can take you towards the very top!
- Video running time: 3 hours (English)
- With annotated games by Wesley So
- Exclusive database with additonal model games
- Including CB 14 Reader
Wesley So is a grandmaster who lives in and plays for the USA. He was born in the City of Bacoor, Philippines on October 9th 1993, and was only six, when he learned how to move the pieces. After launching his career as a full-time professional in 2014, he vaulted in the Top Ten with a peak rating of 2822 ELO in early 2017. He's switched federations to the USA in 2014 and represented the country at the 2016 Chess Olympiad in Baku, winning individual Gold on board three and team Gold for the first time since 1976.

When I first read Mayan Messages: Daily Guide to Self-Empowerment, I was very impressed with the spiritual wisdom and knowledge it contained. I began applying what I'd learned and seeking to better myself in all areas I knew were necessary.
Spiritual and self-help books in prison can tremendously help prisoners improve spiritually, and also help them in other areas of their lives. By applying the wisdom and knowledge they learn, they transform into a better person, and then can help others do the same.
However, obtaining these books is extremely difficult, especially for those who have no outside support.
Your donation will help men and women who are seeking to improve themselves and those around them, in prison and upon their release.

text: Dave Chappelle is still very much alive, but since he's on the lam from his TV show, Comedy Central plans to treat him as if he'd tragically expired. Last week, the network announced that it was going to stitch four new episodes of Chappelle's Show out of the roughly 75 minutes of sketches completed before the star abruptly halted work on the series. But since Chappelle's usual from-the-stage introductions to the skits were never filmed, the network is hoping to tributize them. "If Dave does not come back to do his normal intros, the goal is to get Chris Rock, Chris Tucker, Martin Lawrence, the biggest comedians, whatever, to do a wake for the show," says a person familiar with the planning. "Dave's missing; these are his last four remaining episodes. They'll grieve and roast and toast. Those will be the new bumpers." The source says that the new sketches—bits of which were shown Sunday on Comedy Central's Last Laugh '05—are "absolutely hysterical." Standout skits include a werewolf bit and a parody of MTV's Cribs in which Chappelle shows off an enormously gaudy Miami mansion while wearing a "400-pound fur coat." A Comedy Central spokesman says, "I've heard the wake idea. I have not heard those specific names."Next: The Montauk Mobile Vacation Home

Shubhangi Swaroop has become the first ever Indian Navy pilot. Shubhangi, along with three women, were among the 328 midshipmen and cadets who were able to pass out of the Ezhimala Naval Academy, situated in Kerala. Shubhangi, who hails from Uttar Pradesh, can be expected to fly the Maritime Reconnaissance aircraft and the other three female candidates are going to join the navy soon. Naval Armament Inspectorate (NAI) has never included a woman before, so this must be a proud moment for Shubhangi and her family as well. She is the daughter of Naval commander Gyan Swaroop and will now be traveling to Air Force Academy in Hyderabad, to practice and train as a professional pilot.
There have been several woman officers in the Indian Navy, but Shbhangi is the first to have been cleared for the NAI, and this is a large point in the progression of woman officers in the Indian Army.
As can be seen by the appreciation and the feeling of happiness across the social media that has spread after this news, it is an important step in the progress of woman and their careers in the Army. We applaud Shubhangi and wish her a successful career ahead in her profession.

The Dutch sure do have an adventurous spirit. Not only is one Dutch firm working on a Tesla Model S shooting brake, but another by the name of Voitures Extravert is now taking old Porsche 911s and turning them into electric cars.
The company calls its project the "Quintessenza": a 1970s or 1980s Porsche 911 with a modern electric powertrain underneath. A 60-kilowatt-hour battery pack provides a range of 400 kilometers (roughly 250 miles) and provides enough power to scoot the 911 from 0-62 mph in 6.0 seconds. Other creature comforts such as air conditioning and power steering are onboard as well.
Voitures Extravert also promises improved driving dynamics with the new powertrain since the batteries are mounted in the front and back to provide a more even weight distribution. Instead of the weight-biased rear, the company says a smoother ride is present with better balance.
Voitures Extravert Porsche 911 turned electric car
Perhaps what's most amazing is the fact Voitures Extravert doesn't just plop a new electric powertrain in, but that it strips the original 1970s or '80s model down and rebuilds it to mimic a 1960s-era 911. The company will not touch actual 911s from the 1960s, noting their value and meaning to so many enthusiasts. Its mission is to put more classic cars back on the streets with a modern and reliable powertrain.
Voitures Extravert says the Quintessenza is "reasonably priced" at 300,000 euros, or $370,000. The price includes the company sourcing the donor car, parts, production, but excludes tax. If such a car checks all the right boxes, it's best to contact the company quickly. It will build just 12 cars in 2019. All five of its production slots for 2018 are sold.
And as emission regulations tighten up around Europe, the company's solution could become quite a popular option.

State of swimming: This is the fourth year of the state championships, slated May 18-19 at Clovis West High. A majority of local section champions competed last year, but there also continued to be notable absences. Overall, the meet has produced four San Diego Section records, including two in the boys 100 butterfly, last set by University City's Brendan Santana (47.57) a year ago. Other marks, both in boys relays, are the 200 medley by La Costa Canyon (1:33.83) in 2015 and the 200 free by Del Norte (1:24.67) last year.
Improved state: La Costa Canyon senior Dylan Delaney can build off a breakthrough showing in the state meet, finishing third in the boys 50 free (20.49). This came after he placed second in the Division II section meet (21.04). Delaney, bound for the University of South Carolina, also contributed to the Mavericks' short-lived section record in the 200 free relay. Also due back on that team are senior Brandon Kulik and sophomore Philip Pozdnyakov.
Talented Temple: Patrick Henry senior Carlson Temple can close his prep career with repeat twin wins after taking the boys 200 individual medley (1:53.15) and the 100 breaststroke (56.98) in last year's D-I meet. The future Georgetown swimmer recorded the fastest 100 breast time at his school since Tony Dual (58:50) in 1993 by trimming nearly two seconds off his third-place time (58.54) in his junior campaign.
Long-distance Blitz: Is there a double three-peat in store for Torrey Pines junior Jordan Blitz? He again prevailed in the boys 200 free (1:39.71) and the 500 free (4:30.57) in the D-I meet last year. On the verge of twin wins is sophomore teammate Stephan Lukashev, second in both the 50 free (21.28) and the 100 free (46.97) a year ago. The two will help lead the Falcons' bid for their fourth straight team championship.
Encore record? How low can La Costa Canyon junior Rachel Rhee go in the girls 50 free? She set the section record last year (23.19) by taking two tenths of a second off the old mark established by San Pasqual's Chandra Lukes in 2011. That gave Rhee a second straight title in the event in D-II. Also, she repeated in the 200 free (1:49.02) albeit off her winning time as a freshman (1:48.12) yet still a one-second margin of victory.
Speedy sprinter: There may be another bid for the girls 50 free mark in D-I by Torrey Pines junior Kira Crage. The Florida transplant debuted in the section meet last year with titles in the 50 free (23.60) and the 100 free (50.90). The addition of Crage provided a further boost to the already-powerful Falcons, who won their seventh consecutive team crown to extend their record reign.
Seeing double, too: Torrey Pines junior Leah Coffin comes off a repeat title in the girls 100 fly (54.56) and her first in the 100 back (56.93), up from third place as a freshman. Also returning is La Costa Canyon junior Tegan Preston, going for her third win in the 100 breast (1:02.29) and second in the 200 individual medley (2:03.52) in D-II. Carlsbad junior Lindsay Turner won the 200 free title (1:49.68) and placed second in the 100 fly (55.17) in D-I.
Family event: West Hills junior Danielle Nowaski can add her second straight girls 500 free title and the sixth consecutive in D-II for her family following her sister, Sarah, a four-time champion now at Rice University. In addition to the 500 free (4:53.39), Danielle can step up from second in the 200 free (1:50.08). Also due back in 500 free is the D-I champion, Carlsbad senior Katie Nowsedliak (4:52.69).
Talking titles: Expected to defend girls titles as well are Mt Carmel senior Juliana Fox in the D-II 100 fly (56.543) and Carlsbad junior Anna Brooker in the D-I 200 IM (2:03.55), plus in diving, Canyon Crest junior Jaye Patrick in D-1 (237.5) and Valhalla junior Isabelle Shane in D-II (255.30). Defending boys champs include Vista junior Jaeden Calder in the D-I 50 free (21.24) and Del Norte senior Jacob Sauter in the D-II 500 freestyle (4:29.76).
Shining Knights: With some strong returning juniors joined by a wave of top freshmen, the Bishop's boys are poised to break out further in Division II this season and next. The Knights finished fourth in the team standings last season behind Maxwell Brown, Pierce Dietze, Adam Lynn and Michael Xu. Now comes a highly regarded frosh class led by Kyto Farley, Mason Morris and Nathaniel Parsons.

The rise of China and the decline of democracy in Australia?
Journal article
Chou, Mark. (2015). The rise of China and the decline of democracy in Australia? Australian Journal of International Affairs. 69(6), pp. 637 - 644. https://doi.org/10.1080/10357718.2015.1081146
|Chou, Mark
Over the years, the Lowy Institute's annual poll has uncovered a number of unexpected and concerning trends about Australian attitudes. However, one of the most alarming findings during the last decade of polling has been the revelation that a significant proportion of Australians are largely apathetic towards democracy. In the 2012 poll, for example, when the Lowy Institute first published findings on its democracy question, only 60 percent of respondents agreed that 'Democracy is preferable to any other kind of government'. Twenty-three percent, on the other hand, said that, 'In some circumstances, a non-democratic government can be preferable'. Finally, a further 15 percent of Australians responded by saying that, 'For someone like me, it doesn't matter what kind of government we have' (see Hanson 2012, 13). More troubling still, the Lowy poll found that those least sympathetic towards democracy were Australia's Generation Y population (18- to 29-year-olds)—with only 39 percent of young people in Australia holding the view that democracy was the most preferable form of government. By contrast, a not insignificant 37 percent of 18- to 29-year-olds were found to believe that a non-democratic government could be preferable under certain circumstances.

Flip No. 71
Medical Mad Libs for Knowledge Transfer Between Clinician Shifts
How to quickly learn get up to speed on a patient's personal life.
Developed at Flip the Clinic Lab: Philadelphia
When patients are in the hospital, they spend a lot of their time with nurses. By the end of their shifts, nurses have administered countless tests, they've listening to problems, made patients comfortable, and chatted with family members. When a new nurse comes on, patients sometimes feel like they've lost the person in the hospital they know best.
What if nurses had a simple tool that could ease that transition? A quick list of questions could get nurses up to speed on their patients. This quick list could include the important people in a patient's life, and other important happenings that don't always make it into the medical record.
Borrowing from the game Mad Libs, hospitals could create a short and pithy questionnaire to let nurses quickly learn more about their patients—even before they start taking their vital signs. It would help nurses understand who their patients are, and also signal to patients that even though staffing has changed, they're still in caring hands.
This is ( NAME ) who is ( AGE ) ( GENDER ) s/he is with ( HOUSEHOLD ), and the other supportive people in her/his life are ( OTHER PEOPLE ). He/r primary activities include ( ACTIVITIES ). His/Her personal situation is ( JOB, OTHER FAMILY STRESS, ETC. ) She presented with ……..
Other Applications:
Imagine the other venues a form like this could be used? Pharmacists could use it to bridge the gap between times when a patient comes in for medication. Medical residents could use it between 30-hour shifts, and overnight physicians can use it when picking up after the doctor covering the patient during the day.

That would have been perfect fishfiles even the right price!!!
I heared 06 but that is why I want the 07 above👆 Thanks for your help.
Ok thanks. I have never owned one with a clutch so I am kinda thinking a 250EX.
We had a 1997 foreman 400 and we had some engine issues with it. Are the sport quad 400ex engines different or more reliable?
Ok my recon was a 250 and it was pretty good for me. Where is he located? I am in Wisconsin
There is a 2007 Honda 250ex for $1,500 that runs great is that a good price? And what price would you pay for it? Here are some pictures 👇
Ok thanks for your help it would be for mostly trail riding but we do have a few jumps around the yard.
All Out Riding started following WTB 2013 rancher ES and Wtb Honda sport quad
Wtb Honda sport quad
All Out Riding posted a topic in Engine - DrivetrainI have recently sold my 2004 Honda recon ES and would like to get a Honda sport quad. What model and engine size should I get?
Just curious what price you would pay for this. It is still up for sale and he may drop his price a bit since it has been up for a while.
Ok thanks for your help I will keep looking. 🙂
Yes everything else works fine, no smoke, and I have a friend that can help me. In my area there going for about $3,000 in good to excellent condition.
Here are some pictures.
WTB 2013 rancher ES
All Out Riding posted a topic in Engine - DrivetrainI found a 2013 Honda rancher ES with 11,000 miles for $1,000. It needs new tires, front wheel bearings, (which owner has but needs to be installed) and rear driveshaft alpines. Is it worth the money or will it be to much work. It has alot of miles and I am not sure what rear driveshaft alpines are so not quite sure how much work it will be. In the ad it says the rear driveshaft alpines could just be welded up is that a good idea? Is it worth the money? Is it a waist of time? Any help would be appreciated.
2004 Honda recon breather lines
All Out Riding replied to All Out Riding's topic in Engine - DrivetrainI saw a video of someone drilling a hole in their snorkel puting the the breather lines in the hole and sealing it so they didn't have to extend the lines. Is this a good idea or would it be better to just extend the lines? And is the carburetor breather line the vacuum line?

One of the "high points" of a trip to Israel is actually a low point—the Dead Sea. At 1,385 feet below sea level, it is literally the lowest spot on the globe. We had a ball floating in the Dead Sea. Because the Dead Sea has no outlets, all the minerals flowing into it make it, by far, the saltiest body of water in the world. It is 36 times saltier than the ocean. As a result, you can't sink in the Dead Sea. You just lay back and float.
And as you can see from the picture, it is SUPER relaxing. I think I could have happily floated along in the Dead Sea for an hour or more. That is, until a wave sent water up my nose, and I felt my nostrils burn 36 times worse than they would at Orange Beach. And that's when I began to think about the fact that we pay a price for floating along so easily. Let me explain in a way that will hopefully give you some things to think about for the church.
First, there's a reason why it's called The Dead Sea. One of the reasons I could lay back and relax in this picture is that there is no life in the Dead Sea. Nothing can grow there. That means I never had to worry about sharks or jellyfish. On the other hand, I would never see dolphins at play, or sandpipers scurrying up and down at the waterline. There are no fishermen. No hermit crabs digging in the sand. It may be peaceful, but I think I would prefer some signs of life.
Lesson: We can have a calm, quiet, peaceful church, or we can have a living church. But if we choose life, then we have to accept some disruption and some chaos.
Second, the Dead Sea is dead because nothing flows out of it. While the Jordan River flows into the Dead Sea, nothing flows from it. It has a multitude of resources coming in, but nothing going out. And without an outflow, the minerals pile up and choke out life.
Lesson: The church must be outward focused to stay alive. We can and do have lots of resources coming in to the church. But if there are no outlets for those resources to bless our community, advance the gospel, invite friends, preach the word, and change lives, all the inflowing resources won't matter. We will die without outflow.
Third: the Dead Sea is Disappearing. As Israel grows, more and more of the Jordan River is being diverted for irrigation, drinking water, and cultivating crops. Add to that the evaporation that happens when a body of water has no outlets, and you have a shrinking body of water. The Dead Sea actually recedes about 4-6 feet every year. Our group could tell the difference from where we were just four years ago. We were nearly 30 feet further away from the water!
Lesson: An inward-focused church will not be around for the next generation. People tend to stop pouring into a church that isn't pouring out into the community. God is under no obligation to continue to bless a church that does nothing with the gifts He has already given it. Think about the third servant in the parable of the Talents (Matthew 25:14-30).
In the coming months, our church will be looking at some major changes. Staff realignments. Increased scrutiny on policies and procedures related to the safety of our children. Bold requests for budget allocations to help us move into the future. And we have a choice to make. We can either embrace the disruption and chaos that comes with being alive, or we can relax and float along peacefully.
Just remember: "Rest in Peace" is not a mission statement. It's an epitaph.

Renault is to invest €85 million in 'Fonderie de Bretagne' foundry, safeguarding more than 400 jobs
15 July 2011 17:40
On July 15, 2011, Renault announced its plan to bolster competitive performance and thereby ensure the staying power of the 'Fonderie de Bretagne' foundry.
- Renault plans to invest €85 million in the foundry through 2016, on top of the €39 million invested over the last three years, which will represent a total of more than €120 million from Renault between 2008 and 2016.
- Over 400 jobs at the site will be safeguarded.
- The return to competitive performance should enable the foundry to develop its business, attracting new customers, and this could lead to further recruitment.
- Support from national and regional government bodies is an essential component of this ambitious plan.
€85 million invested between 2011 and 2016 to make the site competitive and develop business
Renault will be investing in the foundry to modernize the plant, buildings and facilities. The main investment item is a new production line with a capacity of 40,000 tons per year, to replace the existing SPO line, the plant's main casting shop, which currently accounts for 70% of business. With the new production line, the foundry expects a substantial performance improvement. Production startup for the new 'spheroidal' graphite line, mainly making chassis parts (stub axles, arms) and powertrain parts (crankshafts and differential casings), is scheduled for 2014, with build-up to full capacity by 2015.
Investments will also be made in improving safety and working conditions (roofs, heating, extraction, gantries, etc.), quality (test systems), and environmental preservation (soil, air and water protection, etc.).
'Fonderie de Bretagne' will also be continuing its firm commitment to personnel training, at a rate of one week per person per year; training expenditure is estimated at €2 million over the next five years.
On top of this wide-ranging investment plan, the foundry will naturally be endeavoring for recovery and business development through rigorous implementation of the Renault Production Way and workforce's commitment.
Key dates in the project schedule start with a study phase in 2012, followed by substantial investment in 2013, startup of the new line in 2014, and build-up to full capacity by 2015
Support from government authorities
This ambitious plan marks Renault's commitment to invest massively in the foundry, backed by strong employees' determination. Discussions are on going with national and regional government to provide support in three main areas:
- Financial support on real estate, renovation and compliance upgrade
- Investment
- Training
Commenting, Gérard Leclercq, Executive Vice President, Manufacturing and Supply Chain, Renault, said: "This investment project confirms Renault's industrial anchor in France, consistent with my announcement on February 2, on the group's industrial strategy".
- 1964: Société Bretonne de Fonderie et de Mécanique (SBFM) is founded as a Renault subsidiary.
- 1985: The foundry specializes in spheroidal graphite castings, for added-value safety parts such as suspension arms and exhaust manifolds.
- 1999: Renault sells the site to Teksid-Fiat, along with its other foundries.
- 2006: Teksid-Fiat sells the foundry to the Zen group.
- 2008 (November): The foundry goes into receivership.
- 2009 (October): Renault takes back the personnel and the industrial assets, through a subsidiary Fonderie de Bretagne.

I Z A World of Labor
Bankwest-Curtin Economics Centre
In many transition countries, the collapse of communism ushered in language reforms to adapt to the newfound independence from the Soviet Union and openness to the rest of the world. Such reforms may have implications for individuals' economic opportunities, since foreign language proficiency may enhance or signal productivity in the labor market. Recent empirical evidence documents positive labor market returns to English language skills in transition countries. However, Russian language proficiency also remains economically valuable, and nationalist language policies may lead to future loss of economic opportunities.

Tag: payments mobile contactless
Contactless trajectory
[Dave Birch] It looks as if the roll-out of contactless payment cards is not going as well as the industry had hoped. Our good friends at CPP commissioned a survey and found out that
two thirds (77 percent) of respondents are worried about card fraud, as no PIN is required for contactless purchases below £10. Other concerns include a fear of increased crime levels (48 percent) and of criminals hacking into personal details (34 percent).
So people are scared of using contactless cards because of fraud, retailers are surcharging to cut down use and terminals are not good enough. What with one thing and another, it's a surprise to discover that there are any contactless retail transactions in London at all. Is it therefore reasonable for James van Dyke to say that
I'm coming around on contactless.
[From Javelin Strategy and Research » Coming Around on Contactless]
I'm genuinely wondering. But is this the usual post-hype dip or has contactless just taken too long to move into the marketplace? I've heard more and more people — on the issuing side — talk about skipping over contactless cards completely and just moving directly to phones of one form or another, either NFC phones or phones with NFC stickers on them. The argument is, essentially, that it's hard to deliver enough added-value to compete with the cash just using a card whereas a phone can be a platform for more services for the both the payments and retail sectors.

Cannabis indica originated in the middle east, where its' varietal characteristics developed as an adaptation to the often harsh climate of the Hindu Kush mountains. Indica strains often have higher ratios of CBD-to-THC, resulting in a high that many seek out for its intensely relaxing effects. It may also reduce nausea and pain, and increase appetite. Because of its deeply sedative effects, Indica is better consumed at night.
Our strains are often available in your local dispensary as either full-sized nugz or high-potency smallz – ask your local budtender what Feelz strains and potencies are available now!

Our bleak winter and unseasonably cold and rainy spring delayed the arrival of San Francisco's highly anticipated summer produce. But at last, summer is officially here! Squash, corn, peaches, and, my personal favorite, tomatoes are all finally showing up at all of the Bay Area's local farmers markets. Despite their fashionably late appearance, this season's fruits and vegetables are still expected to yield the same crisp and delicious flavors as always.
I waited patiently for these crops because I always like to use local ingredients in my cooking. The farther produce travels, the fewer flavors it retains because of the intermediary refrigeration that is required to transport it. Tomatoes in particular taste the best when they are taken right from the vine, which is why I grow them at home in my garden.
I prefer to use heirloom tomatoes when cooking because of their rich flavor. Deceivingly, heirlooms appear less appetizing than many other varieties because they are specifically pollinated by nature (bees, butterflies, birds, wind…anything from their environment). As a result, farmers have less control over their color, size, and shape. But don't be so quick to judge a book by its cover—the best way to spot a ripe heirloom is to smell it.
All year long I wait for that delectable, earthy, just-off-the-vine smell of fresh tomatoes, so that I can add one of my all time favorite summer dishes to the menu—Grilled Halibut with Grilled Tomato Gelee, complete with basil purée and cucumber. Gelée has a texture that's a bit similar to Jell-o, but it's much more flavorful and dissolves almost instantly in your mouth, enhancing the flavor of any meat it's paired with. I make this dish for my guests at The Dining Room, as well as for my family. I'm delighted to share the recipe so that you too can make it at home for yourself and for your family.

Ruth Blake's music is a dance of paradoxical forces – bitter within sweet, darkness within light, strength within fragility, mother within child.
Ruth has played festivals including Shambala, Into the Wild and the Green Gathering, and was hailed as "destined for great things" by Drowned in Sound at Cambridge Folk Festival. She dedicates her life to Truth, knowing that Truth is as shifting as the tides; fractal, kaleidoscopic, ungraspable.
As a contemporary medicine woman resurrecting the lost mystery traditions of the Celtic Isles, Ruth holds ceremonial concerts that elicit transcendental experiences. With a rare potency and exquisite tenderness, she invites her listeners through myth and magic deep into the heart of their humanity, across the ocean of the tiny heart space and onto the farther shore.

Should we contact the course provider before applying to Erasmus+ programme or after getting the answer from our national agency?
Definitely BEFORE. There are several reasons why.
Mobilities are a key part of your project. By choosing the right course provider your project will have a good foundation for strong impact that you desire. Here are the most important advantages of contacting your course provider before applying to the Erasmus+ KA1 programme.
# Getting additional material and support from your course provider. Some course providers publish only course summary at their webpage. But you also need detailed programme, learning outcomes and competencies acquired during the training. Ask your course provider to send you that material so that writing application form will be easier for you.
# Finding information about the quality of your course provider. By contacting your course provider before application you will get the chance to see how reliable and responsive the course provider is. Ask your course provider different questions about the trainers, evaluation, monitoring, quality of the course, practical arrangement, enrollment process, your fees, any additional support the training provider offers, and you will see whether the provider assists you with good information on time. The questions may help you make the best choice in selecting a training provider. At this initial point you can easily change the provider if you are not satisfied with the outcomes of your communication. After you get confirmation from your national agency you can still change the course provider, but with additional complications. For instance, you have to include your national agency, ask them for permission if another course provider is in a different country. And maybe you will have to cover some costs by yourself if the provider is in more expensive country, because your national agency cannot give you a higher budget later.
# Write in the application form that you have already existing communication. By showing evaluators that you already have ongoing process with the course providers will give your application more credibility resulting in higher points. Write why do you think your course provider is suitable and how did you decide to apply to their course. Keep in mind also Erasmus+ priorities and write how the course provider addresses those priorities along with your learning needs. In some cases you might even attached the letter of intent provided by your course provider.
# By pre-registering to a certain course you ensure your place in the session. Some courses are very popular and quickly gets the maximum number of participants. So pre-registering will book a place for you. However, pre-registering have to be without any costs and obligations. It is better to choose different provider if a certain provider wants you to pay for pre-registration.
Throughout the years of working as Erasmus+ KA1 course provider we gained a clear picture of how does a high quality KA1 application form looks like. We are happy to share our insights in order to increase the quality of international mobility projects in the field of teacher training.

How About A St. Louis History Museum?
Walking around downtown St. Louis, you can't help but see a vacant building or six. All of these buildings represent downtown's potential. Projects are in the works such as Ballpark Village and the MX will change the landscape in their areas of downtown. There is still plenty of landscape left to change. What is something unique that would have a big impact downtown? Of course you could say Target or Whole Foods, but those wouldn't make for a very entertaining blog post. So…
I propose a St. Louis History Museum. Sure, the Missouri History Museum has their "Seeking St. Louis" exhibit as well as an exhibit on the 1904 World's Fair. Seeing those exhibits the last time I was at the History Museum left me wanting more. I would love to see a downtown building turned into the St. Louis History Museum. Would people come? People wait in lines as long as the Mississippi to ride a small elevator up to the top of the Arch; the museum would have no problem drawing crowds.
How would I fill the space? On one hand, I'm not a museum curator. On the other, I don't go around spending $1 million on a worthless piece of land. I feel like that entitles me to at least write this blog post.
The museum should have these five core categories: sports, people, business, events and places. From those basic categories, you could expand things however the budget allows. Take sports as an example. You could have general sections like hockey, baseball, football, soccer, etc. Or you could expand that and fill multiple rooms with the memories of those teams. Just off the top of my head (with a little help from Wikipedia) the following teams would be represented: Blues, Cardinals, Browns, Cardinals, Rams, Steamers, Storm, Ambush, Vipers, Braves, Eagles, Flyers, Hawks, Bombers, Spirits. Just general exhibits on those teams would keep people like me entertained for hours. (Heck, I just got sidetracked grabbing the links to their Wikipedia pages.) How cool would a multi-story glass case with a jersey from every one of those teams prominently displayed be?
Just the people throughout St. Louis' sports history would deserve their own room. How amazing would a room be that featured stories about and from the likes of the Buck's, Harry Caray, Ken Wilson, Brett Hull, Kurt Warner, Darryl Doran, Bob Pettit, Brian McBride, Taylor Twellman, Stan Musial, Steve Stipanovich, Mike and Pete Sorber, Harry Keough, Tony Van Zant, Lori Chalupny, Bob Gibson, Lou Brock, Ozzie Smith and the Gas House Gang. Is there a name in there that doesn't ring a bell? You would head to the St. Louis History Museum to find out, wouldn't you? Actually you would probably google it, but humor me.
The places where these people made those memories would deserve mention too. The "Old Barn on Oakland Avenue", the Kiel Center, the Kiel Auditorium, Busch Stadium (1-3) and Sportsman's Park all hold prominent places for many St. Louisans. This would be a place to feature those places and a place to relive the memories. There is a suite in the Edward Jones Dome that features a really cool display on how the Trans World Airlines (TWA) Dome came to be. That's a private suite. Things like that need to be displayed publicly.
The museum wouldn't be all about sports, think about the places that would have to be represented. The neighborhoods could all have their own areas. Neighborhoods are what make cities great. Tourists would be fascinated to learn about Soulard, Lafayette Square, Dogtown, Cherokee, etc. The Pruitt-Igoe House Complex would deserve it's own area. There could be a whole exhibit on the restaurants and shops, past and present, that have helped shape this city. Plenty of prominent people have either hailed from St. Louis or made their mark here. You have the athletes I mentioned above plus St. Louisans who formed the core of the 1950 World Cup team. They made a movie about those guys with Gerard Butler playing St. Louisan Frank Borghi. Maya Angelou, Scott Bakula, Andy Cohen, T.S. Eliot, Redd Foxx and Jack Dorsey are among the many that deserve a mention in the museum. An exhibit featuring the Mayors of St. Louis would be interesting.
The stories of these prominent folks wouldn't be complete if there wasn't someone around to capture those stories. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch dates back to 1878 when Joseph Pulitzer merged two local dailies. That's the same Pulitzer that the Pulitzer Prize is named for. A room filled with Post-Dispatch front pages throughout history would display the importance of saving the paper newspaper.
Just like any city, businesses and the men who lead them have helped shape St. Louis. Andrew Carnegie helped jumpstart the St. Louis Public Library in 1901. The union of Lily Anheuser and Adolphus Busch is just a small sliver of the beer brewing history that is an integral part of what St. Louis is. Jack Dorsey has helped to redefine communication with Twitter. Who knows what amazing breakthroughs could come from one of the many Arch Grants recipients? There are plenty of other stories that should be told like Stifel Nicolaus', McDonnell-Douglas, Build-A-Bear and Flieshman-Hillard. These are stories that would inspire the next generation.
This post probably reads like a tangled mess. For that I apologize. Having a place like the St. Louis History Museum downtown really excites me. Many ideas I wanted to put in this post were cut because I wanted to hopefully keep a few people reading to the end. Events like the smog episode of 1939 and the Great Flood of '93 get pushed further back in history with each generation. The story of the Pruitt-Igoe housing complex and its downfall is a story that needs to be told and learned from for generations to come. We need a place where future generations can understand these things and learn from them. The grassroots support for St. Louis is at an all-time high with the recent Rally St. Louis launch. Now is the time to make this museum a reality.
Speaking of RallySTL, this would make for a great project. If you happen to see this idea up for a vote, think of the endless possibilities for the St.Louis History Museum. I'm sure they don't stop at mine. Add your own.Brought to you by Mills Apartments
