Dealing with Clinton's Monuments
With the start of the Bush Administration it is finally the right time to
deal with the illegal Clinton national monument designations. Now we have the right way to do it. Congressman Chris Cannon is pushing for the creation of a national commission to review them and make appropriate recommendations to President-elect Bush. He is asking people to sign a petition at www.monumentpetition.com supporting his effort. (This site also has more information about his idea and the problems with these monument designations.) In my opinion, Rep. Cannon clearly has come up with the best way to deal with this problem. Dealing with these monuments will be a very tough political battle. There are widespread public misconceptions about monuments that the enviros will attempt to exploit as usual. The majority of the media will add to the problem by their inevitably inept and biased coverage of any effort to eliminate any monuments or shrink their boundaries to legal size. Yet, the essential foundation of a successful political strategy to accomplish these goals must be a meticulously documented and exhaustive record created by a governmental entity. That means field hearings, exhibits, the whole bit. Congress does not have the staff or the time to do this job. And, anyway, there are other more important resource issues that only Congress can deal with. President Bush can probably do most of what needs to be done on these monuments under his existing authority. Certainly, the federal land management agencies cannot be trusted to be in charge of such a review. That leaves as the only viable alternative a national commission like the one that Rep. Cannon is recommending. Everyone who understands-or even suspects--that Clinton and Babbitt acted illegally and unwisely in designating these monuments should enthusiastically support him. We need to get as many people as possible behind him on this. Please forward this on to everyone you think would sign the petition. www.monumentpetition.com ------------------ www.axlesnappers.com 73 CJ5, 304, T-18, D300, Rev cut D60, Sawzall, 35in.

I love the Internet. I mean, really, who doesn't? Everyday I'm reminded what a strange, wonderful, exciting place the world is - and that's all because of the internet. It gives us the ability to connect with each other and share our passions and our lives with people across the globe. It lets us create in new ways. It allows us to learn things that we didn't even know we wanted to know about (like, for instance, did you know that there is such a thing as a Mini Donkey?). You can watch live videos of rescue kittens. This just scratches the surface of what wonders lie on the vastness of the internet.
A lot of it wouldn't be possible without open internet access and the freedom to create content without fear. Yet it seems every time I turn around these days, there is some government entity somewhere that wants to threaten that. And not just in far away places like China and Iran. This is everywhere. The future of the global internet is at risk.
For more information, visit WhatIsTheITU.org and share the video. Stand up, speak out and let your government know that you believe in open internet.

Chantecaille Retinol Intense Reviews
Excellent for Overnight - and non-irritating
I received a sample of this in a beauty bag, and hesitated to use it due to my sensitive skin. I saw "retinol" and though, "irritation!" Luckily, I asked the Chantecaille product specialist about it. She said it was formulated so that it wouldn't be too aggressive. And sure enough, it is great. I use it at night to allow the formula to help repair the day's damage (at least I hope that's what's ...read morehappening). You need maybe only a pump to pump and a half to do your entire face (avoid eyes) and neck. In the morning, skin is calm and hydrated. Pricey, yes, but the fact that it lasts so long and that I only use it at night means it lasts and lasts. It deserves a 10 for it's effectiveness and that's my vote. — 5 years, 6 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 13 of 15 people said helpful

While falling to some of the usual mini-series issues, The Triangle is wildly successful in keeping its viewers entertained. It's clichéd to say it "has everything," but that's the case here. This is one of the best pieces of original content the Sci-Fi Channel has produced in years, and it's a pleasant break from their usual Saturday night atrocities.
The mystery is here in The Triangle, and the weirder things get, the better it becomes. It's mostly because of the unexplained nature of the actual Bermuda Triangle that keeps it going, knowing the writers have a free canvas to play with. It's a creepy, campy, and wildly original build up.
For a piece of direct-to-cable work, the acting is phenomenal. Lou Diamond Phillips shines, playing a near-mute for most of the movie. It's an emotional performance, and his best in years. Underrated Sam Neil portrays the head of a massive company, looking to figure out why his ships are going down inside the Triangle.
That's enough of a set up to keep this moving forward for nearly five hours. It slows down in spots and there's plenty of room for this to be cut down without losing anything, but it's a minor complaint as the occurrences like rapid aging, disappearing and reappearing people, and mysterious storms begin to wreak havoc on a small group of people. Each new addition keeps the story flowing, while causing a build up of unanswered questions.
The ending is worth picking apart, as it's certainly not as original as the rest of the story and in all actuality more than a little disappointing. However, it's pulled up by incredible special effects and constant production values, the key piece missing to most of Sci-Fi Channel's programming. It's spectacular to just sit back and watch, regardless of how it's actually playing out. You have plenty of time to realize you've been let down later.
While it's easy to be highly critical of this one, the entertainment value is wonderful. It can be taken on so many different levels, from straight camp to flat out serious, and that helps it appeal to a wide audience. Don't expect a revelation and you're sure to have a blast with this one.
Video is mixed here, from flawlessly clear moments to those drenched in grain and compression. Sharpness can be stunning, while at other times, small details are too murky to pick out. It's disappointing that it's not consistent, especially when you're spoiled by how stunning it can look. With a little more attention, this would have been gorgeous.
However disappointing the video is, audio is even worse. This barely qualifies as a 5.1 mix since the rear speakers barely make a sound. There are numerous moments for this to happen, but nothing comes through like it should. Aside from some stereo work (which is also all over the place and nowhere near consistent), this is firmly planted in the center with all of the dialogue. Some of these action sequences should have been a DVD audio showcase.
Extras are sparse, including a slew of trailers, some of which are not appropriate given the content of the film (in other words, don't let your kids click on any of them). The final extra is a 20-minute "making of" piece that aired on the network for the very reason of promoting the show. While there is some mildly informative content, it all leans towards being a commercial.
There also deserves to be a little commendation for the DVD packaging. While slipcases are far too common and annoying, when they look like this, it's not much of a concern. The spectacular holographic case is definitely eye-catching, and the heavy gloss on the back makes this one stand out. Hopefully it's enough to make people pick it up.

The youngsters - named as 15-year-old Charleigh Disbrey and Mert Karaoglan, 18, - are believed to have climbed over a fence close to Elstree and Borehamwood station.
There are no level crossings near the station and the deaths are not being treated as suspicious.
Charleigh, a singer whose music videos have been viewed thousands of times on YouTube, was in year 10 at Hertswood Academy in Borehamwood. Mert was in year 13.
Headteacher Paul Gillett said: "As a close community, obviously we are devastated by this tragedy. Both students were talented, hard working and well respected members of our academy.
"Our thoughts are with their families at this most difficult time. We are supporting our students and staff in coping with this terrible loss."
Friends of the two teenagers paid tribute to the pair on social networking sites.
One Twitter user wrote: "I'm actually so shocked. I saw them walking together like nearly everyday on the way to Hertswood. They looked so happy. #RIP"
Another said they would both be missed, adding: "I hope heaven looks after you."
"I will never forget you and the memories we made," a friend of Charleigh posted on Facebook.
"At peace and with the angels. God bless," wrote another.
A spokesman for British Transport Police said both teenagers had been pronounced dead at the scene.
"Our thoughts are with the family and friends of the two teenagers involved in last night's tragic and acutely sad incident," said Superintendent Phil Wilkinson.
"Although my officers are continuing their investigations, as part of our work to prepare a file for the local coroner, there are not thought to be any suspicious circumstances and no one else is believed to have been involved."
The empty First Capital Connect train was travelling from St Albans to Sutton when the youngsters were struck.
A spokesman for the train operator said: "This was a shocking incident and our hearts go out to all those involved."

Kinderhook Creek is a splendid sheep's milk cheese
Published 4:00 am, Sunday, April 29, 2012
If finding a need and filling it is a prescription for business success, venture capitalists should be investing in dairy sheep. They aren't, but fortunately, a few other risk takers are building flocks to meet a growing appetite in this country for sheep's milk yogurt and sheep's milk cheese.
In fact, New York's Old Chatham Sheepherding Co., probably the first significant dairy-sheep venture in the United States, chose to discontinue production of its sheep cheeses in 2007 to meet the booming business for its sheep's milk yogurt. Since then, the company helped some neighboring Amish farmers build flocks and is now purchasing sheep's milk from them. With a more stable milk supply, Old Chatham's proprietors felt comfortable getting back into the business of producing pure sheep's milk cheese.
Last year, Old Chatham debuted Kinderhook Creek, a 14-ounce bloomy-rind sheep's milk wheel, and the cheese is now making its way west. Veteran cheese enthusiasts will recognize it as essentially a smaller version of Shepherd's Wheel, one of the sheep cheeses that Old Chatham discontinued five years ago.
LATEST SFGATE FOOD VIDEOS: Recipes and restaurants
| GET BREAKING NEWS FIRST: Sign in for newslettersMade from pasteurized sheep's milk, some of which may come from the Amish neighbors, the cheese is released from the creamery at about two weeks. At that point, the powdery white mold has just bloomed on the surface, and the disk is probably still firm and aromatically mute. But over the next several weeks, the cheese softens from the outside in and the fragrance blossoms.
You can use the five-digit date code on the label to determine when the cheese was produced. The first two digits (presumably 12) indicate the year. The next two digits indicate the week of the year, from 01 to 52. And the final digit represents the day of the week, with Monday as day one.
Brennan says she thinks Kinderhook Creek reaches its flavor peak at about eight weeks. The touch test should tell you as much as the date code. A ripe wheel will give to gentle pressure, a sure sign that it is softening and evolving.
My first experience of this cheese was underwhelming. The texture was supple and pleasant enough, but I could not find much aroma or flavor. Only when I scored a riper wheel, with more give, did I get the mushroom fragrance that others had described, along with a nutty scent; a highly savory, almost meaty flavor; and a sexy, spreadable texture. I couldn't leave that cheese alone.
Look for Kinderhook Creek at Rainbow Grocery and Bi-Rite Market in San Francisco; the Cheese Board in Berkeley; and Oxbow Cheese in Napa.
Old Chatham currently makes fewer than 300 wheels per week, so we are lucky to get any. Pair this luscious cheese with sparkling wine for some textural contrast.
Next up: Capriole Julianna, an aged goat's milk cheese from Indiana.

International News Number of AIDS Orphans to Skyrocket in 6 Years, Study SaysMarch 12, 2004 By 2010, 25 million children worldwide -- roughly half the
number in US public schools -- will become AIDS orphans, according
to a study to be published next month by the Washington-based
nonprofit International AIDS Trust (IAT). Currently, there are
about 14 million children around the world orphaned by AIDS, and
their number is growing by 800,000 each year, the study reports.
And as the number of women with HIV grows to 50 percent of those
infected, the effect on children worldwide will worsen.
Adapted from:"The numbers are just mind-boggling," said Sandra L. Thurman, president of IAT and the first presidential envoy for AIDS under President Clinton. "We can't even begin to get our heads around the social and anthropological consequences of this, because we are just at the beginning of this epidemic," said Thurman on the sidelines of a weekend Caribbean health conference that ended Sunday. Besides social stigma and emotional stress, AIDS orphans suffer loss of food, health care, education and security, and are more vulnerable to exploitation. Every day, more than 2,000 infants contract HIV at birth through mother-to-child transmission (MTCT), and most die by the age of five. IAT figures show that 580,000 infants died of AIDS in 2001. MTCT risk can be greatly reduced with a one-time dose of nevirapine, available for $8. Mother's milk is another primary HIV transmission route. Researchers say study in this area is urgently needed, as most women worldwide have no choice about how to nourish their babies. The IAT report, conducted in conjunction with the Children Affected by AIDS Foundation, will be submitted to Congress on April 7. Washington Times 03.09.04; Ken Stier This article was provided by CDC National Prevention Information Network. It is a part of the publication CDC HIV/Hepatitis/STD/TB Prevention News Update.

You're definitely right that the line set should have never been there in the first place, but not withstanding, the roofer should know his working conditions. I recently had a commercial roof replaced, and the contractor mapped every conduit tied to the roof deck, and made sure they didn't puncture anything below.
The unfortunate part is that the roofer had the line set exposed, and had the opportunity to repair it correctly, but ended up doing a poor repair job, supposedly under the advice of a professional HVAC contractor.
What should have happened was the work should have stopped on that portion of the roof, and a qualified HVAC contractor called to do the repair.

text: Home > Lifestyle Warhol's Mao portraits excluded from China show Agence France-Presse Posted at Dec 19 2012 05:02 PM | Updated as of Dec 20 2012 01:02 AM Share Save Facebook Twitter GPlus LinkedIn Pinterest BEIJING, China - Andy Warhol's famous portraits of Mao Zedong will be excluded in a major show of his work in China, organizers said Wednesday, although they stopped short of saying they had been censored. The exhibition to mark the 25th anniversary of the American artist's death, which is currently touring Asia, features more than 300 of his works including 10 acrylic and silkscreen portraits of the former Chinese leader. But the US-based Andy Warhol Museum which is organizing the tour said the Mao images will be dropped from the Beijing and Shanghai legs next year. "Although we had hoped to include our Mao paintings in the exhibition to show Warhol's keen interest in Chinese culture, we understand that certain imagery is still not able to be shown in China," it said in a statement, which did not say whether they had been censored by Chinese authorities. Officials at the Beijing and Shanghai cultural bureaux were not immediately available for comment when contacted by AFP. The Andy Warhol: 15 Minutes Eternal exhibition is one of the biggest ever shows of work by Warhol, who died in 1987. The artist was said to have been inspired to create the series of Mao paintings by the historic visit of then US president Richard Nixon to China in 1972. The portraits are currently on display in Hong Kong, the semi-autonomous Chinese city, where the exhibition is scheduled to run until March next year. © 1994-2012 Agence France-Presse Share Save Facebook Share on Twitter GPlus LinkedIn Pinterest Read More: arts painting mao zedong Andy Warhol /news/03/25/17/duterte-says-he-fired-92-government-employees-in-march-alone/news/03/25/17/duterte-defends-good-china-lauds-contributions-to-ph/news/03/25/17/look-duterte-attends-daughter-kittys-graduation/news/03/25/17/ph-troops-rescue-ship-captain-kidnapped-by-militants/trending/03/25/17/viral-recycled-kwek-kwek-sa-baclaran

RosterWatch.com, Cincinnati Bengals owner, president and general manager Mike Brown was overheard speaking with his scouts regarding Florida running back Mike Gillislee, who reportedly had a good practice during Tuesday's practice in Mobile, Alabama.
We always caution this time of year not to read too much into those reports, largely because teams often do routine diligence to have a file on the player for later (such as a free agency visit or waiver wire) or are simply impressed by a player like a typical fan.

The evolution of robust development and homeostasis in artificial organisms.
PLoS Computational Biology

During embryogenesis, multicellular animals are shaped via cell proliferation, cell rearrangement, and apoptosis. At the end of development, tissue architecture is then maintained through balanced rates of cell proliferation and loss. Here, we take an in silico approach to look for generic systems features of morphogenesis in multicellular animals that arise as a consequence of the evolution of development. Using artificial evolution, we evolved cellular automata-based digital organisms that have distinct embryonic and homeostatic phases of development. Although these evolved organisms use a variety of strategies to maintain their form over time, organisms of different types were all found to rapidly recover from environmental damage in the form of wounds. This regenerative response was most robust in an organism with a stratified tissue-like architecture. An evolutionary analysis revealed that evolution itself contributed to the ability of this organism to maintain its form in the face of genetic and environmental perturbation, confirming the results of previous studies. In addition, the exceptional robustness of this organism to surface injury was found to result from an upward flux of cells, driven in part by cell divisions with a stable niche at the tissue base. Given the general nature of the model, our results lead us to suggest that many of the robust systems properties observed in real organisms, including scar-free wound-healing in well-protected embryos and the layered tissue architecture of regenerating epithelial tissues, may be by-products of the evolution of morphogenesis, rather than the direct result of selection.

Vulnerability Note VU#370308
Microsoft SQL Server 2000 contains denial-of-service vulnerability in SQL Server Resolution Service
Microsoft SQL Server 2000 contains a vulnerability that allows remote attackers to create a denial-of-service condition between two Microsoft SQL servers.
The SQL Server Resolution Service (SSRS) was introduced in Microsoft SQL Server 2000 to provide referral services for multiple server instances running on the same machine. The service listens for requests on UDP port 1434 and returns the address and port number of the SQL server instance that provides access to the requested database. In addition to providing referrals, the SSRS is capable of replying to "ping" messages from other SQL servers to confirm its presence on a network. When the service receives such a message, it replies to the transmitting host with an identical reply message. In normal operation, the SSRS service is responsible for replying to ping messages sent by an SQL Server and does not initiate them. However, an attacker can create a forged ping message to one instance of the SSRS (Victim A, port 1434) that appears to originate from another instance (Victim B, port 1434), causing Victim A and Victim B to continuously exchange messages. This cycle will continue to consume server and network resources until one of the servers stops sending packets for one of several reasons, including a restart of the SQL Server, a reboot of the server host, or a network failure. |
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to initiate a denial-of-service attack between two Microsoft SQL servers. |

[ CyberScape | Metro Santa Cruz | MetroActive Central | Archives ]
Online Drives
By Mimi Hill
FOLKS LIVING IN THE SANTA CRUZ AREA reside in one of the most wired counties per capita in the world. So if you've never been on the Web, run--don't walk--to a local computer store and get yourself online. If you are low on funds--or a skeptic--first check out free access at the Santa Cruz Public Library. The Web is not just a luxury anymore. It's a fun, fascinating, empowering communication tool, and you can easily have an active role in shaping its future.

This page was designed and created by the Boulevards team.
Everyone can help shape the future of the Web
The Santa Cruz County Conference and Visitors Council has a Web page that covers all the basics for tourism in Santa Cruz County. This site is a must for those of you who have friends and relatives who will be visiting and are online. Find highlights and locations of beaches, parks and reserves. Also available are maps, accommodation options, a calendar of events, a dining guide, visitor attractions, general information and at least one version of the history of our county.
Did you know that local bus schedules are now available online? You can track down all Santa Cruz Metro routes, print your own schedule and more. I wanted to find out how to get from Santa Cruz to Watsonville by bus in case I need to take public transportation to get to a concert at the lovely Henry J. Mello Center. I went to the listing of Metro routes and quickly found Route 71. I discovered that the bus runs from Santa Cruz every half-hour starting at 6:15am. However, this site could use a search engine--I wanted to enter a street name and have all buses that go to that street pop up. Right now, you can only find complete routes.
Airs International Inc. of Aptos makes perfumed oil and incense, and its Web page is so alive that you can practically smell it. Order fragrances from Airs' page, get samples and a beautiful poster or just learn about fragrances while viewing delightful graphics. I appreciated the effort the company took to define terms that have to do with essential oils and the well-written exposé on the safety myth that natural raw materials are inherently safer than synthetic compounds. Amber Faith, Lawrence Cleenewerck and Francois Lespes--outstanding job!

On Oct 8th 2011, I was arriving at my storage facility here in Clinton, Ct. There is a small field across from my storage locker. Then behind that field is a fairly large wetlands which is adjacent to long Island sound.
When I stepped out of my vehicle I happen to look over at the sky above the wetlands.I witnessed a very fast blinking light in the sky was about a mile or more away. I watched it for about a minute or two before realizing that this light i was watching was acting unusual and it was perhaps something other than an aircraft.
I had noticed its pale colors of red and blue. The area i am in has a lot of air traffic and i have seen many types of aircraft overhead at all times in all types of weather. I could not compare this light and its activity to anything I had seen.
Thinking that this may be something i got out my flip camera.(i will add here that my flip camera films at 720 hd )I started filming. i was filming for four minutes and stopped only to get my binoculars. I couldn't find it in the viewfinders right away . When I finally did it rose up at a forty five degree angle and began to level off. Than all I saw was either a simulated jet lights , or the light was on the opposite side of a jet as cover. Then the simulation or cover than continued off on a linear path and i stopped watching.
Now this sounds pretty run of the mill and not very exciting . I thought not to much about it myself. Then in November I was going through my saved films on my Macbook and I thought , I should enlarge this film a little and see if i can make anything out. Almost immediately i began to see bright colored lights. Many different colors that also included greys and off whites. these colors changed as fast as the flashing did. I knew at this point that this was definitely not an airplane or ballon or manmade anything.
I again studied the image at a higher degree and found Orbs of many complex color configurations.I was amazed. At the time I was not even aware of what an orb was. Now with what seemed like a multitude of these orbs in many variations I became obsessed with this four min film. reducing the speed and enlarging the image again I began to find structured craft so unbelievable that i myself was awestruck.
I carefully began going through the film a tenth of a second at a time. This little blinking light that seemed strange was revealing images that are so alien that I honestly think i will never be able to look up at the sky again without wondering what race of aliens are out there that can use this type of advanced technology.
I do believe now UFOs are REAL.
I am including some of the picture files, I have well over one hundred images i was able to extract from my four min. film. These images are all real. I would like a film expert to analyze this film someday.

Wikipedia:Meetup/DC 13
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
DC Meetup #13
Wednesday, November 17, 2010 — 7-9 p.m.
Who should come? You should. Really.
If you are interested in Wikipedia or other Wikimedia projects, regardless of your level of experience or involvement, or if you are otherwise involved with free content you are invited and welcome.
What, Where, When, and How?[edit]
- When? : Wednesday, November 17, 2010 - 7-9 p.m. (tentative)
- Where : Cosi @ Metro Center, 700 11th Street NW (12th & G St NW)
The purpose of this meetup is to discuss and plan activities of the local DC Wikimedia group, and allow people to give short presentations (lightning talks?) on projects they (you!) are working on and are of interest to the group.
Topics for discussion:
- Wikimedia DC (local chapter or local affiliate of regional chapter? next steps?)
- Wikimedia public policy / campus ambassadors program
- Wikimedia Fundraiser 2010, by User:Swatjester/User:Drosenthal via Skype
- Smithsonian-Wikipedia collaboration, WP:FedFlix and the Library of Congress - updates by User:Aude
- Brief update on new federal Statipedia & request for input on policy regarding updates to wikipedia on federal work time ; by User:Econterms
- Yay! sounds very interesting! --Aude (talk) 16:55, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
- That is very interesting, you might want to look at what I did for the Army Center of Military History, (you can see the COI statement at User:Sadads/CMH, and I can talk to you about my thought behind it if you would like sometime. The Army actually has a
policybest practice to engage Wikipedia, believe it or not. Unfortunately I cannot come up to DC on Wednesday, though I would be willing to meet up with you either over the weekend, next week or if we do a meetup at the end of December/beginning of January, Sadads (talk) 18:33, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
- Super! I may contact you before the next meetup. Do you know if any policy specifics are available online? It would be good to see an example. -- Econterms (talk) 16:00, 17 November 2010 (UTC),
- Here is one I found thus far:http://www.slideshare.net/DepartmentofDefense/social-media-overview-4773666 , I am trying to find the show that explicitly said something of the nature of "respect the community on Wikipedia but as the public relations officer you are responsible for making sure that unit and commander pages don't present anything libelous or unavailable to the public". I was forwarded it by one of the Army staff I was working with. Also, the Air Force pretty much leave it open in publications like http://www.af.mil/shared/media/document/AFD-090406-036.pdf . I should take back the term policy, and rephrase best practice. I am not finding the original source anywhere though, Sadads (talk) 22:08, 17 November 2010 (UTC)
- Found it http://www.slideshare.net/USArmySocialMedia/army-social-media-best-practices-4937307, look for page 20, Sadads (talk) 22:13, 17 November 2010 (UTC)

Big block, small block, Chevy, Olds, Cadillac, Hudson, Peugeot, Pontiac, Ford, Mopar, 3,4,5,6,8,12,16 cylinder, naturally aspirated, blown, carbureted, fuel injected, etc., etc. Just exactly what did you have in mind?
Radical SBC
How much money? Do you want to buy race gas for the street and strip? How much maintenance do you truly want to do? Chevy's ZZ383 is a nice engine. Many of the large auto parts warehouse companies have ready made crate engines for a reasonable price compared to building one your self if you consider the time and possible mistakes.
Here is an example of an engine I built and sold to a friend of mine and he loves it. Runs mid 11's at the drags with a lightened Nova. The engine is a 406 ci sbc, standard World Products block decked to 0, Ohio Crankshaft steel crank, six inch H beam steel rods, SRP (10 to 1) forged pistons, Dart Alum 215 heads (complete), World Products Motown manifold, seven quart oil pan, SFI vibration damper, SFI ring gear, Proform mini starter, MSD distrib, Comp cams XR292R solid roller pro street cam kit, Comp Pro Magnum roller rockers, Comp stud girdle, Comp true roller timing chain kit, Cloyes timing chain cover with roller cam end play adjustment, cylinder head stud kit, melling oil pump, Holley chokeless race carb 850 cfm, Total Seal Rings, Clevite 77 High-Performance Bearings, complete felpro gasket set, starter ring gear bolts and manifold bolts.

re: Nasty sbc street motor
Note: the 406. That's a stroked crank in excess of 500.00 Requiring some custom block work. It's very common providing you go to the right machinist. You'll have to go to a race/specialty machinist. Someone who's not afraid to do odd jobs. I can't see him assembling this much under 6k. You may wish to go a easier route, perhaps a stock steel crank & eagle replacement rods. Bringing your total under 5K. Yes, those Dart heads are excellent. Don't be afraid of the aluminum for streetability. The alloy is a very high quality. I've used a pair for almost a decade. Dart offers numerous runner sizes stc. Don't stray too far, it will limit your intake preferrences. I personally will avoid angle plug heads next time. They are very inconvenient in plug locations in relation to header tubes. Yes, SRP pistons are excellent for the price. I also rec the comp pro roller "steel" rockers . They cost a bit more however, wont wear out like alumuinum rockers. Always balance it & use reputable machinist.
re SBC
Forgot all about the 400 small blocks. I might be in the mkt for one if someone can find one.
motorhead, keep in mind that everybodys definition of "streetable" is going to be different. There are some that have 13 second cars that they only take to the track while others have street legal 10 second cars they cruise around. So just by saying you want it on the edge of being "streetable" is going to be up to your interperetation of what streetable means.
You might want to be a little more clear about what you're starting with. What car/truck is this engine for? What parts do you have now that you plan on using? Do you have a horsepower goal? Do you need it to meet a certain mpg? |
If you don't mind putting around on the street with a loose converter and a
low gear, you can do that with a 350. Good heads, big cam with tight lobe separation, loose converter, sticky tires and a 4.56 gear. It will burn a lot of gas but run real strong at the track and have that sound your talking about. |
With a good transmission cooler and a low gear you can get away with 5000
stall on the street. Some people hate it others love it it all depends on what you call streetable. Solid flat tappet cam with duration ~255 degrees @ 0.050". Stock crank and rods are good to 7500 RPM with good rod bolts, as for pistons with a 350 you will need flat tops or domes to get the compression up close to 11:1. High 10 second ETs @ 3200 lbs are with in reach. Put more cubic inches and the combination doesn't have to be so radical. |
Nasty sbc motor
500 horse streetable normally aspirated non nitrous sbc ??? Better bring a wallet.
re:Nasty sbc
Yep, you are in good hands with these guys. I'd re read a few suggestions. Back off on your hp expectency. It can be accomplished. 11's are fast. Like riding a kamakazi jap bike. Most people are very impressed with 12 & 13 second cars. They can be very streetable. W/out a price tag it can become a "pipe dream". Ok gotta go endulge in a few brews

Jennifer Egan's The Keep mixes love, ghost and Gothic stories into a fine literary thriller. While the book is a bit too self-referential to provide true scares or deep surprises, it manages to evoke dread and create suspense while spinning a story about the challenges of connecting with others.
The story begins in an unnamed Central European country where Howard invites his cousin Danny to come stay and work. Twenty years past, Danny was involved in a cruel prank on Howard, but now Howard is rich enough to but and renovate castles. Most of the castle is being repaired, but the keep, where the residing Baroness holds sway, is off-limits. Shortly after we learn all this, we are introduced to Ray, who is writing the story for his maximum security prison writing class.
The hazy line between imagination and reality is constantly tested. Howard believes that his technology free hotel will allow people to experience imagination as it once was, nearly a hallucination. Danny, with technology withdrawal, paranoia and other reasons to be hazy has a number of experiences that hard to explain. Outside of the story, the degree to which Ray is simply retelling or inventing his story isn't always clear. When you have finished reading the book, take a look at a faux promotional site for the hotel at the Keep. It clears up a few mysteries.
Egan balances the elements of Gothic and ghost in the castle story and awkward potential romance between Ray and his teacher quite well. Aside from a coda that doesn't really fit with the rest of the book, this is a stupendous read.

At long last, the trailer for the hotly anticipated 'Green Lantern' movie hit the web this evening, offering fans a glimpse of star Ryan Reynolds donning the famous green suit.
The trailer also reveals a bit more of the plot, which finds Hal Jordan (Reynolds) learning new powers and overcoming his fears to protect the Green Lantern Corp. from its new enemy, Parallax. Even more, we get our first official look at Blake Lively, who plays fellow test pilot and love interest Carol Ferris, and Peter Sarsgaard, as the villainous Hector Hammond.

Water of Paris
From what I understood from yesterday's comments, everyone seems happy after the US elections! I thought of celebrating the event with a little glass of a typical Paris beverage: water! As a matter of fact, the Paris town hall has been promoting tap water for several years now, and they even just opened a water museum in the 16th arrondissement where I photographed these 3 really cool pitchers (designed by Pierre Charpin). The whole purpose of this PR campaign is actually to let Parisians know that their tap water is just as good as bottled water, that it's much more environmentally friendly than bottled water and that it is about 300 times less expensive than bottled water! More here - in French - if you're interested.

"The Rime of the Ancient Mariner", by Coleridge
And the Albatross begins to be avenged.
Water, water, every where,
And all the boards did shrink ;
Water, water, every where,
Nor any drop to drink.
The very deep did rot : O Christ !
That ever this should be !
Yea, slimy things did crawl with legs
Upon the slimy sea.They are so cute! The green one with "nitrates, carbonates" written in my favorite.
Paris water is pretty good. But it depends in which arrondissement you live actually... I never buy bottled water, "that's money thrown through the windows" (de l'argent jeté par les fenêtres, French saying!)
I tried to see you reflection in the glass Eric, but couldn't see anything... :)
Jeff, cheers (with water).I just have to buy the carafe in the middle - I can Google a list of places to buy the carafes - but it doesn't seem like any of them have websites. ARG!
I confess, I buy lots of bottled water. It's the only way I'll drink it. My tap water tastes like someone took it out of a swimming pool, even through a filter.Jeff or Lynn: Why is Lynn's city the City of Water? I've never heard that moniker.
I'm still flying from last night - I watched the news again all day today.
Trois jour et je suis en vol par la Ville du Lumiere (on se dit comme sa?)!! ET,ET, ET!! Je reste en la 3eme - quand j'arrive le matin du 9de novembre, je vouz parlerez de chez moi!!!Great photo, great comments, and way to go, GF Jeff!
I work for a parenting magazine, and we recently pointed out that there's an epidemic of tooth decay in kids because they're drinking bottled water instead of fluoridated tap water. Here in NYC, we have very very good water -- je bois toujours l'eau du robinet.I confess I am throwing money out the window (thanks Guille) every month since I have water (distilled) brought to my house every few weeks for my water dispensing machine. I do notice the difference in taste compared to our tap water which is good but not great. Nevertheless, I believe there is a sucker born every minute and I might be one of them. I get my fluoride from my weekly intake of Guinness products. LOL :-)
Way to go Jeff! Love the Coleridge. Any icicles or snow on that GF crown, Mr. Mini-so-taah?
lolOh I am so not buying bottled water except when necessary, and am thrilled that the water is Paris in not cause for concern. That said, I love Perrier! ( It is French isn't it? If not, oh well) . It's not bad with a splash of bourbon either. I am sure that made a lot of readers faint dead away. WEll, if you haven't tried it , don't knock it. Now Eric, I would buy that cute one in the middle with la tour on it. A very neat souvenir. Can I buy online???? Sorry, but I don't have enough time in Paris to be going to a Water Museuem.
VI love the Eiffel Tower carafe. So fun!! I don't drink enough water, although I used to drink too much, the doctor said. I do buy bottled water but it takes us quite a while to use it all up. We take it in the car with us on all our "town days" when I am chauffeur for the kids and myself since town water tastes nasty. Otherwise, we drink water from our well. Nice, clean, cold water. Now I'm thirsty.....
ReplyDeleteTalking about water, does Colette still has that water bar/pub?
And of course, congratulatons to all americans for the elections, what a beautiful party it was. I hope Obana would win and so he did.
It was such an important fact to the US and the world, so meaninful, that is comum to here some people here saying (with pleasure): We have a new president!Sorry for the mistypos... here it goes again:
And of course, congratulations to all americans for the elections, what a beautiful party it was. I hope Obama would win and so he did!
It was such an important fact to the US and the world, so meaninful, that is comum to here some people here saying (with pleasure): We have a new president!Monica, the sentiment is there, merci.
A water museum! Paris has so many interesting, particular museums. Not sure I'd go to a water museum, though!
We stopped drinking bottled water. Pasadena has good tap water, but we stopped mostly because of the waste - plastic waste, that is. Americans throw away millions of plastic bottles every day. Recycling them is better. Not using them at all is best.
Thank you, Eric.Petrea, I so agree with you and maybe that's the real motivation I need to stop buying bottled water. "Plastic plastic everywhere and nowhere to dispose of it."
I like the pitchers Eric and the way you took the photo. Maybe you can contact them and put a link on your blog to help them sell them?I recently had the chance to hear Professor Muhammad Yunus (Nobel Peace Prize winner) speak about how through the Grameen Bank and French company Veolia Water, they are working to bring drinking water to the poor in Bangladesh. It's an amazing initiative where they will replace water laden with arsenic with drinkable water. It certainly makes my Evian an unnecessary luxury!
ReplyDeleteI understand bottled water in some questionable places, but Paris? Never! I always drink from the tap in the US and Europe and South America, and haven;t died yet.
I was introduced to Badoit in France, and I will admit to buying it now. The effervesence isn't as harsh as American club soda. Try it, you'll like it!I used to just dread hauling those heavy cases of bottled water from the shopping cart to the car to the house. Now we have our own well so it's not an issue, but I think I am much more faithful about drinking water when it's from one of those handy plastic bottles.
Remember George Carlin's take on us and our bottled water? "What's with you A Holes carrying your bottles around with you everywhere"? "Take an F-ing drink before you leave the house"!

Potentiometer with bass boost pin for Simple SE?
I have purchased 50K Potentiometer for my Tubelab Simple SE with 4-legged connections (IN) (OUT) (GROUND) plus the fourth leg which can be used for 'bass boost'. Has anyone come across these before? I was wondering if it would be possible to hook up the 4th pin to a switch where I could flick for a bass boost on/off. Being an Ebay jobbie it probably wont sound too good but wanted to experiment anyway. can be found here: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2x-50K-Stereo-...742.m153.l1262 Any Advice would be appreciated! Thanks |

There's an idea here:
http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/showt...099#post392099 You could probably dig up a bunch more by searching "loudness tap circuit" or "loudness tap schematic". |

Usually there will be a series resistor and cap. Normally to defeat the loudness you short the capacitor - this prevents significant changes in signal levels above the corner frequency of the series rc network. (RC network with free end of resistor to tap, free end of cap to ground.)
The resistor in the series RC network will usually be some fraction of the resistance from the loudness tap to ground.. Near equal value provides about 6dB of boost, and something like half about 10dB. (Caveat math probably way off, but you get the point.) Cap value can be selected based on the desired corner frequency.. Something on the order of 50 - 80Hz probably would not be unusual depending on the application. You can experiment to find the best combination(s) for your speakers, listening preferences, music, etc.. You can also make the corner frequency switchable by having several switch selected capacitors - this could be a rotary switch that also provides the loudness defeat function. (Since this is a first order network something like an octave apart would be a starting point.) You can reasonably iterate until you find the appropriate values..
