Overall Rating
Excellent service, fair price, transportation home and back.
Service is excellent. I dropped my car off and they shuttled me to my work place. Later, my car needed more work than expected and Southend Auto picked me up from work and provided a loaner car for the night.
The shop does solid work, explains what they recommend, and has proven to be honest in their findings.
Great service.
Work and customer service has always been good.
They always do friendly reliable service.
Prompt, quality, competent work. Polite, knowledgable owner and service writers.
They provide excellent service at a fair price.
We've gone to Southend for some years now, we can trust both their recommendations of what needs to be done and the level of service we'll receive for both of our vehicles.
Work has ALWAYS been done well with no issues after repairs have been completed.
They have always done a great job for us.
Good people and excellent service.
Southend does good work,
I've been taking my car for repairs to them since the '90's and I've been happy with their service.
I had an emergency and they were able to service my truck on short notice. They fixed it and at a reasonable price. Whereas the Ford dealer charged me twice as much, performed an unnecessary repair, and didn't actually fix the problem I brought to them.
Good service.
Friendly, responsive, efficient, knowledgable; reasonably priced - all the good things!
Always friendly, great service and always explain in detail what was done or what may need to be done.
The repair came in under their estimate. They took me home and picked me up when my vehicle was ready.
I have been a customer for 10 years and have had great customer service and quality work.
Great service, fair price.
Fair, honest service - Southend Auto Care won't try to sell you a service you don't need. After service follow-up is great!

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) – Research in New York City suggests that sending parents educational text messages about the flu vaccine and where to get it could increase the number of kids and teens protected during flu season.
Researchers following more than 9,000 mostly low-income kids found that when parents got a series of text messages starting early in the 2010-2011 flu season, their kids were more likely to have gotten a flu shot by the end of that season than children of parents who didn't receive the texts.
The researcher who led the study said that text messages may be more effective than calling a household or sending a reminder letter because texts are sent to a specific person and stored in the phone.
"You can reach so many families and patients at one time in an automated, efficient fashion and you tailor it to what the families need," said Dr. Melissa Stockwell of the Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health in New York.
Although the difference in vaccination rates between the two groups of kids was relatively small, an editorial accompanying the study in the April 24th issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association called the results promising.
"The potential is substantial, and in the right setting with automated, integrated information systems, text message reminders can target large numbers of patients at relatively low cost," wrote Drs. Peter Szilagyi and William Adams from the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry and the Boston University School of Medicine, respectively.
For their study, Dr. Stockwell's team enrolled 9,213 kids and teens between six months and 18 years old at four community-based clinics in New York before the start of the 2010 flu season.
More than half of the kids and teens came from Spanish-speaking families and almost 90% were publicly insured.
Parents of about half the kids and teens received weekly text messages, and all parents in the text group as well as a comparison group received a reminder phone call in November.
The researchers created a software program that combined information from the clinics' electronic health records and New York City's immunization database to send parents five texts that were personalized based on the information in their medical records.
The first three texts focused on educating the parents about vaccine safety, and emphasized the seriousness of flu in children. The messages were sent in either English or Spanish.
Dr. Stockwell said the texts attempted to clear up common misconceptions, e.g., the flu is just a bad cold, or the flu shot can cause the flu.
The last two texts told parents about weekly Saturday vaccine clinics held at one of the four centers in the fall. In January, if a child was still not vaccinated, another two text messages were sent reminding parents about getting the vaccine and when the next clinics would be held.
Of the roughly 4,600 kids and teens in the group receiving texts, about 760 parents were unreachable or declined future messages.
At the end of the study in March 2011, about 44% of the kids and teens in the texting group were vaccinated, as were 40% of those whose parents did not receive texts.
Dr. Stockwell's team cautioned that their results may underestimate the potential effectiveness of the texts because not every family was told about all vaccine clinic dates to prevent overcrowding. Their results are also limited to a single medical system and might not be applicable to the general public.
In their editorial, Dr. Szilagyi and Dr. Adams also said the study's design might have diminished the text messages' effect.
But Dr. Adams told Reuters Health that text message reminders or similar electronic interactions between healthcare workers and patients will become more and more common.
"It's pretty quickly not going to be research, it's going to be everyday healthcare," he said.
According to Drs. Szilagyi and Adams, if the new study's results were applied across the U.S., an additional 2.5 million kids and teens would be vaccinated against the flu.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention supports universal flu vaccination, which means everyone over six months old — with a few exceptions — should get vaccinated every year.
Dr. Stockwell told Reuters Health that the benefits of instituting a text messaging system like the one her group created could outweigh the costs.
In total, the researchers spent $7,000 to create the system, $270 per week to monitor it and $165 to send the more than 23,000 text messages.
"If you're a big enough organization the upfront cost isn't that big of a deal," she said.

New Contest! Win a UCLA Bruins T-Shirt and Cap!; or: What the Hell Was I Doing at UCLA, and Why Do I Have Rival Merchandise?!
Posted by Prince GomolvilasThe fact that I teach at USC (UCLA's biggest rival school, for those of you who don't know) was smartly kept under the radar. I felt like I was part of a grand conspiracy, especially when one of the event hosts flat-out refused to say "USC" when introducing me. I believe she used a dirty euphemism like "another school that we won't mention."
Anyway, at the end of our panel, we all received generous gift bags that contained a UCLA T-shirt and baseball cap. Now I'm not one to not be appreciative and I know how gauche it is to re-gift merchandise, especially on a blog, but I think the event people are able to understand that I simply cannot have this stuff in my apartment. The merchandise will inevitably burst into flames and burn my home down. (You don't want that to happen, do you, event people?!) Believe me, it will happen if I don't get rid of these valuable (to you) items! So....
Here's yet another thrilling Bamboo Nation contest!
THE PRIZE: A brand-new, medium-sized UCLA Bruins T-shirt (though it looks large to me) and a brand-new, small/medium Bruins baseball cap, both made by Adidas.
THE RULES: Leave a comment—any comment—by Sunday, May 23, 2010, 11:59 p.m. If you don't have an ID you can sign in with, you can comment anonymously and leave your name or your initials; when I announce the winner, you'll know if you won and all you have to do is e-mail me to claim your prize. One winner will be chosen at random. Anyone in the world may enter. (Even you, Romanians!)
7 comments:
I find this contest to be in direct support of campus rivalry. Don't you see that UCLA and USC are blatantly denouncing each other and inevitably oppressing each other thus building strong bonds of community through their being oppressed and common oppressing of each other?!?
As a firm believe of University Love and squashing the competitive spirit, I'm in full support of starting a protest against this contest...hell ANY contest! All contest do is spur envy, jealously and unsportsmanlike like conduct!
Contests are a hot bed for negative reactionary emotions. Exciting fanatics to look beyond the so called "healthy" acts of competition that help develop creatively, ingenuity and a third word that describes using your imagination that ends with the letter "y." Rather, focusing on the self-destructive primal aggression contest excite that will eventually lead to the demise of society and the world!
I would be horrifically disgusted if this comment were be selected as a winner for this so called "contest."
(However...if it is, can the shirt be exchanged for like an X-Large? Just curious.)

Victoria is also a sporting state and we can organise tickets to the Australian Open or an Australian Rules footie match or to play a round on one of the state's many superb golf courses.
Tom, Original Traveller
Enjoy Melbourne's cultural scene, take to the Great Ocean Road, and follow bushwalking trails. State capital Melbourne, as well as being a cultural hub offering a year round programme of festivals, major art exhibitions and theatrical events, is also particularly cosmopolitan, providing a great contrast to other Australian cities. Victoria on the other hand features spectacular coastal drives, some of the richest pastoral land in Australia and magnificent bushwalking country.
Why we think you'll love it
- Bustling Melbourne is an uber trendy place to holiday, and the Great Ocean Road - a surf highway that winds through the region - is not to be missed
From the gallery
Luxury Holidays in Victoria: The Detail
In Melbourne the Botanic Gardens, the Melbourne Aquarium and the Melbourne Zoo are worth a look. In the evening check out one of Melbourne's top restaurants or go local and enjoy the more Bohemian side of Melbourne's bars and eateries fostered by its mix of European immigrants.
Away from Melbourne, Victoria's coastal drives should be explored while on holiday, and Original Travel can arrange any number of activities. The discovery of gold in Victoria's central region over 150 years ago has left the State with a rich legacy of grand hotels and public buildings, historic gardens and homesteads.
The Great Ocean Road hugs the contours of the state's rugged south coast before heading inland to the ranges and rainforest of Cape Otway. When it rejoins the coast it does so to a spectacular array of cliffs, stacks and sea arches and the rolling waves of the Southern Ocean. Behind the coastline are waterfalls, tree ferns, towering eucalyptus forests and a large population of koala.
Further inland some of the richest pastoral land in Australia is the setting for fine old homesteads and the area is reminiscent of the English countryside (but without the weather). A little further on the Grampian National Park features bushwalking trails, scenic lookouts, a multitude of wildlife and seasonal wildflowers

"Most of the poor people vote for (Clinton)"...that is not necessarily true. Wealthier democrats seem to be more likely to vote for obama, but that doesn't mean most do and it certainly doesn't mean that most poor people do not. Don't skew statistics.
I was just listening to the NBC evening news. They reported that Barack Obama was meeting with John Edwards, but they said nothing about meeting with Hillary Clinton. Barack Obama has been made by the media, he is not President material, at this point. It's so sad that the country likes someone for President,who does not even have a platform.
Edwards always struck me as being a man of principle, which is why I have so much respect for him. I hope he goes with the candidate that represents his views and doesn't follow the hype of a rockstar. If he wants to give the goals of his candidacy any chance, he'll throw his support to Hillary.
Edwards is a smart guy, he will go for the obvious winning team. Contrary to popular opinion, the ability to inspire is a more precious presidential quality than having spen 8 years in the white house next to the guy who had the ability to inspire.
Yes We Can!
I don't understand why Clinton supporters' primary argument for her is that "she can bring about the change"....so what? As if Obama can't??? He seems to me to be much stronger and have a much more balanced and clear head on his shoulders. Look at the coalition he has built in just this campaign alone!! The man is certainly capable of action as well as inspiring a nation and uniting a people. I cannot fathom not supporting him.
I hope he endorses Obama. We need a new perspective in Washington. Obama also brings in so many young people into the process.
Edwards will endorse Hilliary.
If he doesn't he is showing how phony he is.
Remember Hilliary and Edwards have basically the same positions on healthcare....
I am commenting to CNN about the coverage today and how very obviously slanted it is toward Clinton. Ms. Crowley's coverage today was obviously pro Clinton.
Also, Fox is reporting another number with delegates than CNN-CNN more slanted toward Clinton. I think it's pretty sad that Obama was behind by less than 100 votes before yesterdays races, but now is behind by 133 according to CNN-if that continues, I as a democrat and many more will stay home and become discouraged for November and you can guarantee a Republican win.
If Edwards is so worried about the poor people as he says he is, he certainly will endorse Hillary Clinton, but if he is more worried about a position that Obama may give him, as I heard talk before about Edwards being Attorney General if Obama is elected, then he will vote Obama. His ideas are so close to Hillary's when it comes to the poor and they both had the same Healthcare plan, I don't know why he would even have a hard time deciding on who he should endorse. We shall see which is of the most importance to him.
Only Obama could get his endoresment. Hillary's whole campaign conflicts with Edward's platform of change from the status quo. And as Billary put it herself she has been part of the washington machine for 35 years (and if that is not status quo I do not know what is). I think Eddy wil endorse Obama after this upcoming tuesday, it will build on his momentum and will help him in texas ohio and pennslyvannia where he desperetly needs to do well. Momentum is everything. And I think Hillary is knows it wil soon be over (but not after a bitter fight). And I think it would be odd for gore to step back in the political arena (it would sure help obama, but endorsing his running mate's wife's enemy takes gusto, but then again look at Kerry...).
Not that CNN will post this. . . and not that John Edwards bothers to read the CNN blogs. . . but if you are reading this. . . Please endorse Barack. We need to unite the party against McCain. Hillary will divide us.
Hillary is the status quo candidate – if Edwards endorses her, I wouldn't be more surprised if I woke up with my head sewn to the carpet.
All this Gore/Edwards Obama endorsement talk is enough to keep a smile on my face all the way to Texas & Ohio! (knock on wood.)
Did you know four major Texas newspapers have endorsed Sen. Obama?!
Together, we can. Together, we will.
Obama '08!!!
You people (Obama supporters) have lost your minds! Even if Hillary Clinton didn't pick up another delegate from here out, she has almost HALF of the delegates needed for nomination as I type, so the Obama/Edwards ticket is TRULY funny! Your guy is going to get exposed SOON enough for selling you guys nothing but smoke!
Edwards knows who is the best for the job ,Obama is a good speaker and I do not believe he will do what he promises , he does not show his plans. I can compare with a president in South America , He was young and offered a lot , his speeches were like Obama, when he was in the govenment , led the country the worst inflation . Hilary is a smart woman with experience and a good work plan
CNN seems very slanted toward Clinton. Luckily, the country is in favor of Obama.
It's not over yet – but I do wonder how things would have worked out if the media hadn't run a relentless smear campaign against Clinton. There's some force (and it's not the people) that wants Obama to get this nomination. I'm not sure why or who they are, but the media reflects this and has consistently been out to get Hillary from the outset. It makes me realize that we the people really don't choose our leaders, we just think we do...
John Edwards should support Clinton because he is a champion of the poor and so is she. What we don't need is four years of on the job training.
so sad cnn needs help
Edwards should have endorsed Obama before Super Tuesday Feb. 5th when he had the chance to look authentic. Since some superdelegates have already left the Edwards camp for Obama, I don't think his endorsement will carry much weight. The real question is what position is Edwards jocking for. I don't think he should be on the VP ticket. It needs to be someone new and currently in an elected office who shares Obama's view of change and was and still is against the Iraq War.
Obama in '08!
Edwards will make the right decision and support the surge of Obama.
Go Obama/Edwards or Obama/Clintion 08.
Speaking for the youth. The future of this country lies with the youth. The youth are mesmorized by Obama. Invest in the youth by endorsing Obama. Not only that, all of the polls indicate that Obama would make the best candidate against Mccain, or any one else. An endorsement for Clinton would keep things the same, a vote for Obama will bring about change. Do what is right.
Obama 08!!!
I think Clinton would be better at fullfilling any deals made with Edwards because she's a more intelligent, experienced politician .
He should endorse Obama. He's more well-rounded, and is now pulling in huge votes. Join the Cause, Edwards. Change, we believe in it!
He will endorse Obama, the smart choice. The only choice, really.
Hillary's time is up.
Wow, your decision can carry a lot of weight but only if you choose the right person. You are torment to choose between your mother and your bother. Which one will it be the future or past?

From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
For related articles, see Astrology and Zodiac.
Horoscopes are genuine and accurate predictions of the future (my horoscope told me so, so there). The predictions are discovered by examining the relative positions of the planets of the solar system against the backgound of the ecliptic star constellations and then locating their whereabouts on Google maps.
Forecasts for individuals can be determined by considering the person's star sign. An individual's star sign is determined by considering a number of factors including where they were born, how drunk their parents were during conception and cheese. The star signs are named after stars, which is why they're called star signs.
As well as enabling individual forecasts, star signs are also supposed to tell you about an individual's general personality traits.
For this week's personalized horoscopes, please click here.
edit The Signs of the Zodiac
There are around 94 signs of the Zodiac. This is a selection of the more popular ones. [[Cancer (constellation)|Cancer (the nerdy one) (June 12-September 3 (excluding June 13-September 2))
Cancerians are the nerdy type they like star wars marvel dc universe and they also like going to comic shops
edit Vegetarius (the huntsman)
Vegetarians are prone to grapes, cheerfulness and beards. They make good pets but should not be allowed on the furniture.
edit Gemini (the Twix)
(Every Friday afternoon)
Gemini like chocolate snacks with two fingers. They are pathologically terrified of Kit-Kat because although it can have two, it more commonly has four fingers or just one big chunky turd. It is the unpredictability that scares them most.
edit Jedi (the Knight)
(Every night at 12:00AM-4:00AM)
If you are born a jedi you have a the innate ability to use the force. The force has been said to be stronger than gravity but not as strong as magnetism.
edit Capricorn (the Goat)
(Wednesday afternoons)
Not welcome in Montana, Capricorns tend towards mawkish sentimentality. They often sing songs by Billy Joel and Celine Dion. Famous capricorns include retarded childrens' TV star Edd the Duck (also known as Loonette the Clown).
edit Libra (the Scales)
Also known as librarians. Very elusive and fun when you find them! Best colour - ummm undecided.
edit Mantovani (the Musician)
(Rare, seasonal)
Mantovanis are only born on average every 18 days. Many of them are never identified, partly because they come from British Columbia. They make great lounge lizards and can often be seen crooning.
edit Derry and Toms (the Republican)
(August 12)
Prone to fits of violent retribution and classical music. Make good partners for Aquarians.
edit Leo (the other goat)
(Last Friday)
Leos sleep rough and collect cigarette stubs for money. They have personalities are so outgoing that they usually outstay their welcome. Lucky plant is grass; Lucky number is the letter 'Aleph'; Lucky Luke is a pile of crap.
edit Scorpinok (the Transformer)
(Once per episode)
Scorpinok are known for their uselessness when fighting Maximals, but are still allowed to go play with the Predacons when they do their evil deeds.
edit An Example Horoscope
This week, to all people out there who are Capricorns, your lucky colour is sky blue! But beware heavy machinery, especially lawnmowers. This week is a good week for making big decisions, as Venus lines up with some other star, I think its the Sun! And if you feel you need to calm down from an argument on Tuesday, then your cooling spaces are under the radiator, in the airing cupboard and down the back of the sofa. This is where you will find your inner peace, due to the alignment of Orion. In the sky. Yeah, up there.
edit Notable Uses of Horoscopes
During World War 2, the British government used horoscopes to try and influence Hitler, a well known follower of astrology. Their spies would infiltrate Hitler's bunker, and replace his horoscope page, with a new one, such as "This is a bad week to launch a full scale attack! Leave it until next week." Or "Due to the alignment of Gemini in Jupiter, hold off that big plan (aka Final Solution.) Gottit? Unfortunately, Hitler was not a Gemini, but a secret Cancer, so the plan never worked.
In other notable uses of horoscopes, you can often use them as cat litter!
edit Protection from planetary influences
Step 1: Read a horoscope.
Step 2: Pick a planet of bad influence.
Step 3: Prepare an object (piece of rock for example) of the mass equal to:
- 0.06 tons in case of Mercury
- 3.37 tons in case of Venus
- 0.21 tons in case of Mars
- 4.89 tons in case of Jupiter
- 0.33 tons in case of Saturn
- 0.01 tons in case of Uranus
- 0.01 tons in case of Neptune
Step 4: Determine the position of the 'bad' planet.
Step 5: Place an object prepared in the Step 3 in the position 1 meter behind yourself when you are facing 'bad' planet.
Step 6: Repeat steps 4 and 5 all day to compensate planetary movements.
edit Chinese Horoscopes
Chinese horoscopes are different. They only happen once a year and are named after animals like Roosters, Sheep, Kiwi Fruit and Wombats. This makes them a bit silly unlike French horoscopes.
edit Les horoscopes françaises
French horoscopes are based on the metric system. They have ten star signs named after baked goods.
edit Le Brioche
Brioches are outgoing, bubbly personalities and are enriched with butter.
edit Le Baguette
Baguettes are known for their prolific noses and self-satisfied smugness, which makes them hard to distinguish from the general populus in France.
edit La Madeleine
Known for their intense bouts of melancholy and readiness to sobbing, hence the French phrase pleurer comme une vache qui pisse. Should avoid holidays in Portugal if at all possible.
edit Le Choco-BN
Usually highly creative, many of the greatest French chefs were born under this sign. Johnny Halliday wasn't, though.
edit Le Levain
Levains are typically honest, hardworking and conscientious types.
edit Le Far Breton
Enriched with butter and spiked with prunes, the Far Breton is prone to corpulence, flatulence and dyspepsia. Jolly by day and evil-tempered by night, the character of the Far makes them ideal companions for Labradors and Lemurs.
edit Le Pain Complet

Tartes Tatin are fruity types with an inverted sense of their own worth.

Lot et Garonne, a masculine sign, is adventurous and not averse to the thrill of risk-taking. Your positive, life-affirming optimism makes you a lot of fun and great to be around.

Temperatures warmer in 2007
According to a report in La Prensa Grafica, 2007 was warmer than usual. The average temperature was 0.2 degrees Celsius warmer than average. This is the fourth year in a row in which temperatures have been higher than average in the country. The scientists note, however, there is not enough data to establish a trend or whether this is part of patterns of global climate change.
The highest temperature in 2007 was 43°C on March 21 and the coldest was 4°C on January 17.
LPG also quotes scientists at the environment ministry who worry that increasing temperatures can adversely affect food production with the possibility of increased droughts and unstable weather.

Reviews of Bethel Gardens Assisted & Memory Care

I am a friend or relative of resident
My grandmother was a resident at Bethel Gardens for a little over 3 years. It was a wonderful place for her and our family. It is just as it says; A Home Away From Home. The care givers are loving and professional to the residents. We could have went for a bigger, newer place that offers all the bells & whistles, but went for the place that offered the love & caring that is much like home.
Caring103517350 March 16, 2015
I am a friend or relative of a resident
He's been there at Bethel Gardens for almost three years. One of the things is that it is very close to where I live. It seems fairly homey, and it was right in the little town of Powder Springs. At the time, there was a restaurant close by and some other things available for him. They have some turnarounds, but they have many people there that have been there for a very long time. They are all very caring, and the regular crew that is there has taken the time to know my dad really well. There is a lot of closeness there. His room is a nice size, and he has his own bed. Where he is, he has a nice closet, but they are not all like that. He has a small refrigerator in the room. Bethel Garden is an older facility, and it is not like some of the others. They provide some activities, but most of their people are pretty dependent. Now that my dad has started to slow up, it is a good fit for him. There really is no transportation available. They might get out once a week for lunch, but that doesn't always happen. There really isn't much for them to do. Now he can't get out since the restaurant isn't there anymore. Even though it is an older facility, the rooms are clean, and the laundry is done. They don't have an onsite RN or a LCM, but generally they help with the meds, and that is good. When he was on oxygen for a while, that was not good. I think it really dependents on what your loved one needs. My father likes to go everyday which is a problem for me because I can't do that anymore. It depends on the person that is getting the care. Bethel is like home; some days are good, and some days aren't so good. There is a lot of caring, but it is not always perfect.

I was impressed Bethel Gardens as well as their staff. Their rooms are adequate, and she is in a semi-private room. They have a very big bathroom that accommodates people like my mother.
Kim79248950 June 19, 2014
I visited this facility
I didn't have a problem with Bethel Gardens. But they were a little farther away from the house and not in my general direction. I thought the people were nice, but I thought the place was dated. I'm not going to say the residents were sad, but it just wasn't as upbeat. They just seem to be medicated. It just wasn't lively. The only reason I didn't really go down the path of Bethel is because the people just seem to be sedated. But I don't know that there's a whole lot they can change with that. I could have just come on a bad day.
The place appeared to be clean. The other part of Bethel Gardens that kind of slightly turned me off is that they had two levels, an upstairs and downstairs. My grandfather doesn't do steps well. They hadn't determined what apartment he would have gotten, but I just didn't like the setup and the situation for him. The other thing too is my grandfather smokes cigarettes, so he needed a place where he could go outside and smoke.

The experiences I have had with the above named facility have been nothing short of wonderful. The employees are incredible people, and when my family walks out the door after visiting my grandmother, we know that she is in the hands of loving, caring, caompassionate people. The employees that work at Bethel Garden sincerely care about their residents and their well-being. For example, my grandmother is in the midst of dementia, and has had trouble falling asleep at night (actually, she cries when it is bedtime), so, there is a particular employee at this facility that will go into my grandmother's room and sit with her until she falls asleep. The employees at Bethel Garden go that extra foot, and that is most reassuring when you have a family member in their care.

I visited this facility
My grandmother is a resident at Bethel Gardens. She has been living there for approximately 3 months. On my first visit to the facility, I was happy with the conditions of the exterior of the building and grounds. There were several residents sitting outside and greeted my family and I as we arrived. The inside of the facility is very clean and does not have the "old person" smell. There were many resident sitting in the TV room talking and doing various activities. The care staff I met was wonderful. They were very nice and attentive to the needs of the residents. The individual rooms while small were ample to meet the living needs of the residents. The facility makes sure that her medications were taken on time. They also have prayer groups, bingo, entertainment, and they ensure that she gets a perm. The facility has made an extremely difficult decision to place a family member into an assisted living environment easy. She is getting the socialization and care she needs.

When we arrived at Bethel Gardens, we were greeted by a beautiful landscape and two gentlemen enjoying the outdoors on rocking chairs. I was surprised at how happy they were; they seemed to be enjoying people watching and greeting visitors. Once inside there was a fabulous sitting area with a lovely couch, chairs and a large TV. The room was filled with people enjoying each other's company. They too seemed to be very happy and comfortable. There were two of these rooms, two lovely dining rooms and many individual rooms throughout the hallways. Each door was marked with an individual name plaque. I was very impressed with the cleanliness of the facility as well as my grandmother's room. The workers were very attentive to her every need, which was fantastic. The room was large enough to fit many of my grandmother's things from home, this helped make the transition comfortable for her. I would recommend Bethel Gardens to anyone for the care of a loved one.

A Quick Trip to Boulder
Last weekend I took a quick trip to Boulder, CO to visit some dear friends. I hadn't been out west in so long and I forgot how different the land is out there. The air, the elevation, the dryness (I totally turned into a lizard in a matter of hours after arriving), and the lovely, lovely mountains. We went on some nice hikes, watched birds and ate way too much good food. Now I am busy playing catch up and promise to have some new posts soon!

text: I love to teach the kids all about teamwork. Working together is something they will have to do for the rest of their lives. Teaching them this important skill at a young age will set them up for success as they get older. School projects, work projects, relationships all need the support of a team. This is what we do in the classroom when a spill happens, need to look for something, clean up time, a big puzzle or anything that needs the aid of our friends, we say Teamwork Needed or 911 Teamwork! That alert tells everyone to stop what their doing and go help our teammates. The kids even sing songs about teamwork and what their helping with. It works like a charm!

Kungfu is for fighting — using kungfu techniques, not kick-boxing or techniques of other martial systems
Question 3
I want to learn kungfu.
— Ali, Pakistan
Answer by Grandmaster Wong Kiew Kit
Many people want to learn kungfu, but end up learning kungfu forms or kick-boxing instead. Learning kungfu forms or kick-boxing is fine, but it is different from learning kungfu.
Before you learn kungfu, or any art, it is wise to know what that art is. This may sound trite or unnecessary, but it will not only save you a lot of time but also prevent you from much injury.
For convenience we may classify kungfu into three types: ordinary kungfu, good kungfu, and great kungfu.
Ordinary kungfu is for self-defence. There are also other arts of self-defence, like kick-boxing, karate and taekwondo. The main difference is their forms. Kick-boxing uses kick-boxing forms, karate uses karate forms, taekwondo uses taekwondo forms, and kungfu uses kungfu forms.
There are different styles of kungfu, like Shaolin, Taijiquan, Praying Mantis and Baguzzhang. Praying Mantis kungfu forms can be very different from Baguazhang kungfu forms.
About 90% of those who say they practice kungfu only perform kungfu forms. Strictly speaking they do not practice genuine kungfu because they cannot apply their kungfu forms for fighting. Many of them may not admit this fact. Some may not even realize it.
Of those who practice only kungfu forms and cannot use their kungfu forms for fighting, 70% of them perform their kungfu forms for demonstration. Past masters referred to such demonstrative kungfu forms as "flowery fists embroidery kicksâ€. 30% of them use kick-boxing or other martial techniques, but not kungfu, for fighting.
I would like to clarify that personally I have nothing against them. What and how they choose to practice is their right and business. Actually many of those who practice "flowery fists and embroidery kicks†are very nice people – the type of people I would like to have tea with, though I disagree with their concept and practice of kungfu.
So, kungfu is quite rare. Kungfu is for fighting. But the great majority of those who say they practice kungfu, cannot use their kungfu for fighting, though some of them are good fighters using kick-boxing or other martial techniques.
For every 100 persons who say they practice kungfu, only about 10 can use their kungfu for fighting. In our classification, we call this ordinary kungfu.
But kungfu is not just for fighting, though combat efficiency is its most basic requirement. Good kungfu contributes to health, vitality and longevity. While the percentage of those who practice genuine kungfu is low, only about 10%, amongst those who practice genuine kungfu, the percentage of good kungfu is high, about 70%. So about 7 out of the 10 practitioners of genuine kungfu have good health. They also have high moral values.
Amongst those who practice "flowery fists embroidery kicksâ€, the percentage of good health is also very high, about 90%, or about 63 of 70 practitioners. But they cannot be said to practice good kungfu, not even ordinary kungfu, because they cannot use their kungfu for combat.
Why is the percentage of good health amongst "flowery fists embroidery kicks†practitioners, 90%, higher than that of genuine kungfu practitioners, 70%? It is because genuine kungfu practitioners engage in combat where they may tense their muscles to generate mechanical strength. Those who practice kungfu forms but use kick-boxing or other martial techniques for combat do not have good health because they sustain a lot of injury which is routinely left unattended to.
Great kungfu, which is not only for combat and good health but also for spiritual cultivation, is very rare. Only 1% of those who say they practice kungfu may have a chance to practice great kungfu.
Please take note that spiritual cultivation is different from moral cultivation, though they are closely related. A morally cultivated person is kind and considerate, but he may or may not believe in his own spirit. He may think that he is only a physical body. Spiritual cultivation is the cultivation of the spirit. A spiritually cultivated person is relaxed, peaceful and happy, and at high levels may have glimpses of Cosmic Realty.
Please also take note that spiritual cultivation is non-religious. Any person of any religion or without any professed religion can cultivate spiritually. Spiritual cultivation will enable a religious person to be a better follower of his own religion because it makes his religions teaching come alive.
To sum up, kungfu is rare. Most people practice only kungfu forms, and use kick-boxing or other martial techniques when they have to fight. Genuine kungfu may be ordinary, good or great. Ordinary kungfu is for fighting. Good kungfu is for fighting and good health. Great kungfu is for fighting, good health and spiritual cultivation.
It is a golden opportunity to be able to practice great kungfu. But because kungfu today is so debased, the public generally does not have a good impression of kungfu practitioners. They think of them as rough and aggressive. In fact it is the reverse. A genuine kungfu practitioner is gentle and considerate to others, relaxed and happy to himself.

Entering into a chi kung state of mind
Question 1
You have often said that some of the most important lessons and skills we learn in our school are taught right at the beginning.
— Sifu Tim Franklin, United Kingdoms
You are perfectly right. While many masters teach their best arts to their selected students after the students have spent many years with them, we teach every student the best arts right at the beginning. I remember clearly what my sifu, Sifu Ho Fatt Nam, told me when he taught me One-finger Shooting Zen. He said, "One-Finger Zen and Tiger-Claw are two of the most advanced arts in Shaolin. They are taught to students right at the start in our school so that they can train everyday and have sufficient time to master them." One-Finger Zen is used in "dim-mark" and "Tiger-Claw in "chin-na", and both are found in One-finger Shooting Zen.
The very first arts we teach in any chi kung, Shaolin or Taijiquan class, and also we use to start subsequent classes, are entering into a chi kung state of mind, entering Zen or entering Tao. Without entering into a chi kung state of mind or entering Tao, a person cannot perform genuine chi kung or genuine Taijiquan, even when he uses genuine chi kung or Taijiquan techniques. He merely performs gentle physical exercise or Taiji dance.
One may be able to perform genuine kungfu without entering Zen, but his performance remains at a physical and low level. Only by entering Zen can he develop internal force and brings his Shaolin performance to a high level.
Question 2
Sometimes these important lessons can be missed by some as they eagerly pursue other "more interesting" aspects of our arts. This, in our opinion, would be a mistake as the beginning teachings are not only really interesting, but also help build a strong foundation, to fully appreciate and develop the skills required for deeper practices and benefits.
More likely today is that these important first lessons are not even taught at all. Most chi kung, Shaolin and Taijiquan teachers are unaware of these important lessons.
A very small percentage of these teachers, less than 5% of the total number of people who practice chi kung, Shaolin Kungfu and Taijiquan, may eventually become real masters after many years of dedicated training, and have high levels of chi kung, Shaolin and Taijiquan attainments, but they are still unaware that they could reach high levels of attainment because, without their conscious knowing, they had entered a chi kung state of mind, entered Zen or entered Tao during thair training.
More likely, some students chase after novelties, like tingling sensations at their finger tips in chi kung, winning trophies in Shaolin competitions, and learning exotic sets in Taijiquan. They have forgotten the aims of practicing their arts, like enjoying good health in chi kung practice, and being able to use their arts for combat in Shaolin Kungfu and Taijiquan. Realizing these aims as well as other wonderful benefits are only possible if they have practiced well the initial lessons.
The ever-victorious strategy
Question 3
The aims of the 2016 UK Summer camp are to ensure students/teachers not only develop these skills but also realise them as well, for if they don't they would have missed a wonderful opportunity to experience life as a meaningful flow of energy.
It is telling that you make a difference between realizing these skills and developing them. Most practitioners neither realize the great importance of these basic skills nor develop them.
Some may realize the importance of these skills, but never develop them. They know, for example, that they have to be relaxed and not thinking of anything in order to generate an energy flow, but they never succeed in generating an energy flow.
On the other hand, some may have developed their skills, but they never realize what these skills are. They may have developed internal force through years of dedicated training, for example, but they never realize that they need to be in a Zen or Tao state of mind for the internal force development. Many chi kung and kungfu practitioners have missed the wonderful opportunity to experience life as a meaningful flow of energy. Indeed, many of them may not really understand what the expression means although they know the dictionary meaning of all the words used.
Those who realize its meaning and experience life as a meaningful flow of energy will have good health, vitality and longevity besides other benefits. But many who practice chi kung are weak and sick, and many who practiced Shaolin Kungfu and Taijiquan are stressful and injured, though the arts they practice are supposed to enhance their flow of energy.
Question 4
We have already discussed the aims of the 5 day Foundations of Kung Fu course, for which we are very much looking forward to.
It is beneficial to elaborate on the benefits of the kungfu course at the coming UK Summer Camp.
I have often mentioned an ever-victorious strategy against other kungfu styles or other martial arts, which is to apply a combat sequence relentlessly but taking great care of our own safety, against an opponent in free sparring.
Though I used this strategy in my own free sparring in my younger days and remained undefeated, it will be the first time I teach instructors and students in our school to put this philosophy into practice at the kungfu course during the coming UK Summer Camp.
Barry suggested that I devised 4 combat sequences, and course participants would choose one. I have done that and shall post the 4 combat sequences on my website later on for participants to choose.
If we apply any one of the 4 combat sequences flowingly and forcefully, our opponents would have no chance to fight back. They would be overwhelmed by our flow and force. Even if they could match our flow and force, they have no techniques in their repertoire to defend against our pressing attack. they will be pressed back against a wall.
However, if an opponent is very skillful, he may escape our pressing attack, and counter attack with typical techniques from his art. We shall learn to counter these typical techniques and continue to press him back against a wall.
While attaining this specific objective of winning free sparring, which will make our kungfu training meaningful, we shall also place much focus on our general aims of attaining good health, vitality, longevity, mental clarity and spiritual joys.
To most other martial artists, to attain good health, which includes being free from stress and injuries, is antagonistic to free sparring. Many other martial artists are stressful and injured in free sparring. But we are elite. Not only we will be relaxed, but we learn to be unhurt in free sparring.
The course will even attain more than this, Not only we shall be relaxed and unhurt in free sparring, the free sparring will contribute to our good health, vitality, longevity, mental clarity and spiritual joys! It is hard for others to believe, even to comprehend. One has to experience the course to find out.
Five-Animal Play in Barcelona
Question 5
We would also like to explore and share with you our understanding of the foundations of Chi Kung, our ideas for a series of Chi Kung courses and how this fits in with the Kung Fu.
Referring back to your Q&A in 1998 regarding intensive courses we understand the foundation skills of Chi Kung can be narrowed to two things:
Circulating energy
Building Energy
We had a chat about how people could use these skills and agreed that someone would need to be able to do the following:

My mom handed me a recipe the other day. She found it in her archives of recipes. It was called Biscuits aux Carottes (Carrot Cookies) and was written in French on the back of an old yellowed calendar page with several folds in it and stapler holes. She handed me a jar of honey along with the recipe to get me started. Thanks Ma!
I never baked with honey before, so it sounded intriguing. There is no sugar in this recipe. Honey is the only sweetener. That makes it a healthy cookie, right?
I was doing fine reading the recipe on my own at home until I came upon "muscade". Ok, I had no clue what that could possibly be, so I called my mom, my encyclopedia for all things French. Well, apparently my encyclopedia is out of date, because she didn't have a clue either.
So off to Google I went and learned that "muscade" is nutmeg. There you have it. Now I will know for next time.
The recipe also called for whole grain oats, but I used quick oats and it worked out fine. I also substituted some of the all purpose flour for whole wheat flour.
So really, they are pretty healthy cookies. And the best part was that they actually tasted good. I am all for healthy, but if something tastes nasty, I don't care how healthy it is, I just won't eat it. My stomach can't take the abuse. Thank goodness these were flavorful. The honey gave them just the right amount of sweetness.
- 2/3 cup butter
- 1 cup honey
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup grated carrots
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 3/4 cup all purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 2 cups quick oats
- 1 cup raisins

This toy broke after five uses. Even that we took excellent care of it, the material disintegrated while being used. In conclusion: We really don't like it.
This product was provided free of charge to the reviewer. This review is in compliance with the

This is hard to imagine how it is one size fits all.
Unless the penis is something out of this world this masturbator will do the trick. The TPR material from which is made is very flexible and have both thermoplastic and elasto-metric properties. Which means it has the ability to stretch and then upon the removal of stress, returns to its original shape.

Former Education Secretary William Bennett sums up a big part of the problem in a new book titled Is College Worth It? In it, he and his co-author note that since 1990 the cost of attending a four-year college has risen at four times the rate of inflation. Over that same period, federally supported student loans have skyrocketed, to the point where student-loan debt now exceeds credit-card debt.
(Excerpt) Read more at nypost.com ...
Hillsdale is not alone. Other schools Grove City College in Pennsylvania comes to mind also reject federal dollars because they dont like the strings that come attached. Whatever their reason, the result is that these schools have to work harder to keep costs down and attract students by emphasizing value for money.
College is a monopoly that sells useless product for an extremely high price. I honestly believe that a majority of the kids who go would be better off not going.
Add College of the Ozarks and Patrick Henry College to the list:
It costs so much because only the "privileged oppressor" class pays it.
"oppressed" people pay much less, compliments of the evil capitalists.
It cost so much because they need to support a bunch of useless librals who would stave to death if they had to be productive.
Marxist and communist "professors" don't come cheap. All their BS about "greedy capitalists" is just part of their shtick.
Christendom College (lay run Roman Catholic) takes no Fed money for anything.
College is basically a resort for late adolescents complete with gyms, flat screen TV's, exotic cuisine, constant entertainment and obviously easy access to members of whatever sex floats your boat.
The appropriate comparison would be to what has happened to the cost of similar resorts like Sandals, Club Med etc. I suspect the increases would be roughly comparable.
Maybe because we shower our universities with money, and it's institutionalized by taxpayer money.
It's a money-laundering racket for liberals.
It appears that colleges have raised their tuition and fees over the years, far over and above their own costs of doing business. And they do this because they know that loans are paying the bulk of the bill.
How many students go to another college because of tuition increases? I bet the vast majority of students who need aid simply take out more loans to cover the increases.
And we could have a huge discussion about whether college is worth it, from the standpoint of the liberal indoctrination students receive. Some fields, such as the hard sciences or business, are not so politicized. But so many subjects in college, such as sociology, the humanities, history, literature, students are being fed liberal clap trap. And paying tens of thousands of dollars per year to be fed the liberal clap trap.
It also has to do with the remedial classes that have to be taken because of the public schools are not teaching prior to college.
RE: a resort for late adolescents complete with gyms, flat screen TVs, exotic cuisine, constant entertainment and obviously easy access to members of whatever sex floats your boat.
The current financial model of private colleges is to keep tuition prices high so as to capture a great amount of money from students who can afford to pay top dollar. This money then funds fanciful construction projects and superfluous creature comforts for students, which for some reasons, REALLY do wonders to attract more of the same students.
A Vice-President of a university I attended (Texas), years ago, one day told me how a university determines where to set their cut off scholastic scores for students to be elgible to get in the university. He said they lower the standards until there is enough money to pay for the buildings. And, he was head of the counseling education division before he became Vice-President. Amazing - it's not how smart you are, it's paying for the buildings that matter.
College is for funding union hacks and their lavish pensions. Some of that money goes to political candidates. Everyone knows this. We need to starve the devil, not feed it.
Hold the cards, folks. We have a bingo. The colleges and universities raised their rates far above inflationary increases. Over a twenty year period, tuition is doubled and tripled. Then these fine institutions spend every dime they get and turn around and cry "We are poor". Scoundrels!
Recently, a local university associate professor got in trouble with the law and the news article stated that he made $101,000 per year. An associate professor nonetheless! Is he that doggone good to receive such a salary? And no this is a long way away from New York City.
Yes. Or in the words of a old prof of mine - "college is daycare for adults". And obviously not a very cheap one either.
Because they can. Once something is deemed as "necessary" they can charge whatever they want.
All college employees get good wages, health insurance, and very good pensions which they will not "sacrifice" at all, so it's raise the tuition and let the students borrow money to pay for it.
College is a monopoly that sells useless product for an extremely high price. I honestly believe that a majority of the kids who go would be better off not going.
I blame the businesses for the increase in the need to go to college. Many jobs out there do not need a college degree to perform them but they for some reason insist on a bachelor's degree to even apply for the job. The businesses are 100 percent of the problem.
They price gouge and they get away with it because they're run by liberals. For example here in New York city, NYU - a college which is as leftist as it gets, is *the* largest real estate owners in the entire NYC area. And what do they do with all that real estate? Jack up the rents as high as it can go destroying small businesses which is why high end fashion stores are sprouting up all over that area around NYU, Greenwich Village, Soho, even Little Italy which almost cancelled their 87 year old San Gennaro festival last year because the high end fashion stores on Mulberry street said the smoke from the street cooking would destroy their fashionable clothes. Capitalism is evil but only if right wingers make money.
BUT....since they're butt buddies with the Marxist tyrant class, you never hear statements like the one I started with. You can bilk the little man all you want as long as you work to advance tyranny.
This is why college is a filter/gateway to employment, blame the SCOTUS.
"Campus life" is ridiculously expensive and unnecessary IMO. Besides, it can be distracting and interfere.
AND oh by the way, you are there to develop skills for a career and later a decent paying job. A degree in Women's Studies, though probably nice and very interesting, is not going to get a you a job.

They also figure what percentage of the incoming freshman class they will flunk out...I've been told.
What's your level of education? Just curious.
A major part of the reason comes from the implications of the Griggs v. Duke Power decision of the Supreme Court in 1971. Essentially, the Court held that private companies could not test its employees for advancement in the company, particularly with regard to IQ tests. Subsequently, companies sought a proxy, i.e., the college diploma.
Just wait until the school lunch program is extended to college kids.
Just looked on Hillsdale's site...here's the blurb about cost for this coming year:
Q: What is your tuition at Hillsdale?
A: Tuition for 2013-14 is $22,250. The annual cost is $31,890 which includes tuition, room, board, and general fees. Books and course fees are additional expenses.
So that's still approx. 128K for an education...I don't know if that can be called affordable, but it is less than other private schools.
Our kid did his undergrad at a CC, then State U, and his Masters at a private school...all was tuition free, and he lived at home, so he came out with no student debt.
There are ways to work within the system and not pay tuition. Lots of scholarships available or programs like dual credit, and state merit scholarships if you attend a state U. Grad school can be tuition free if you are a TA.
I can't imagine the payments these kids have to make on their student loands, they must be close to the a mortgage payment.
And it's not just loans. The grants that allow "underprivileged" students to go to school for "free" and are paid for by the taxpayer keep increasing to cover rising tuition
Its high because the free market is not allowed to determine tuition.
Pell Grants are means tested, so only low income families can take advantage of those, and there is no payback. But there's lots of ways to finance your education without grants or loans.
In our state...If you use Dual Credit at a Community College while you're in high school, it is tuition free and is paid for by the school funds that pay for public education. The same school funds that are part of our property tax bill and supports all the public schools, will pay tuition to the community college for a student who chooses to take classes at the local community college instead of at the high school
State merit scholarships in our state are paid for by the lottery. And they can only be used for in state schools. The original idea was to try to keep good students (qualification is determined by GPA and scores on SATs) in the state by offering them scholarships at state universities.
Grad school teaching assistants and graduate assistants get free tuition, and they are basically employees of the college (just not paid employees, it's more of a barter system...there is a small stipend, but not much...the bulk of your pay for being a TA or GA is the free tuition.)
We know a young lady who decided she'd finance her education by using offered scholarships through private companies. So she applied to every scholarship available for her field of study through private companies. She actually made more money than school cost her by winning the scholarship competitions. It took lots of work to ferret out the scholarships and apply, but she accomplished her goal of paying her way through school without tuition coming from her parents, but rather from private companies.There are dozens of scholarships that are never awarded each year because no one takes the time to apply (usually involves submitting essays.)
I went to community college for two years, then state for my bachelor's, and my employer paid for grad school through tuition reimbursement. I paid as I went and never took a loan.
These schools each hold BILLIONS of dollars in interest/profit bearing trusts. The pricing is artificially high because it is not market or performance driven.
Very correct.
The "Big Education" cycle transfers taxpayer subsidized borrowed money to highly paid profs and admins who contribute big $$$ to Democrats.
While Dems and the MSM give lip service to the "high cost of education" they love the results.
Nope not true
The only ones making money at colleges are administrators. The excess in admin and their over compensation are the main reason for the high cost of tuition.
And...the politicians do not stop it....many end up in those jobs later. I can tell you Scott Walker nor Rick Scott are cutting admin at their state schools
Working for a college I can say there is a lot of waste and excess....and a lot of people who have no clue what goes on in these schools
Well, obviously.
Let's start with how many college freshmen should not have graduated from high school. 50%? 80%?
My guess is that the number is somewhere between those two.
So, easily half of the student loan consumers don't belong there.
I used to work for a union representing employees other than professors and admin. It is true that admin is highly paid, but the clerical, maintenance, etc. that were our members were very well paid compared to private sector, they had health insurance for life after 2o years free, and had very good pensions after 20 years. Tell me that doesn't add up? One person worked full time on union work, at our office, mostly to console employees that someone looked at them wrong and hurt their feelings. All on the taxpayer's dime.
If a kid is a National Merit Finalist, some schools give automatic full rides when you apply early. If you have a HS sophomore with decent grades, have him spend time over the summer studying for the PSAT. It is given to juniors in October and is the qualifying test for National Merit. If your school doesn't offer it, ask them to implement it or find a (most likely private) school that will allow your kid to take it there. Find out now, because the high schools order the tests over the summer.
Congrats, for that is an accomplishment, plus it feels good to get through and have that burden over your head.
My kid is 25 and he has friends, his age, who are in debt, big time. One newly married couple's combined student loans top $80,000, I can't imagine that kind of debt at that age.
And from what I understand, the interest rate on the Stafford loans is not low, but around 7%.
I'm in Florida...and you do not see unions at the colleges. Benefits are good...but an area private school offers better
I wish I was getting one of those sweet pensions that everyone says school employees get....because it don't exist in FL ....unless you are admin
Vedder is an economist at ultra-lib Ohio University, not ultra-lib Ohio State.
He spoke to our Tea Party a couple of years ago. An very interesting guy with a great sense of humor.
He's VERY CONSERVATIVE...I don't know how he stands it at O.U.
Well that explains it, I was in CA when I worked at that union. It wasn't just colleges either, we had K-6 cafeteria workers that worked 3 hours a day but got family health insurance at no cost to them, and if they put in 5 years and quit, they got to keep the free health ins. When they wante to change it to 10 yrs, they raised hell!
We could not afford Hilldale. We are contributors and donors to the college for years (about 500 a year, which had no impact on our cost).
Also, going to Hillsdale will get you're kids black listed, when they go for certain jobs, or so I've been warned by parents who have sent their kids there.
It has even been suggested to me (my kid is applying to West Point and Annapolis), that we screwed up by donating to them in the past. In our background check this will come up, and will count against our oldest son.
Dick Durbin has not responded to over 12 requests for our top 1%, State Wide Academic, and State Qualifier in Wrestng, Eagle Scout, with over 4,000 hours of community service, and a leader in the NHA son. But he has given several letters to "under privileged" (you read into that) children, who regularly averaged a 2.0 or lower GPA.
We regret giving to Hillsdale college over the years. It is being used against our son.

Is every np231 the same? Other than there's a 21 and 23 spline. Is there any electrical upgrades on the new ones? I have a 90 and the transfer case broke. The guy I'm buying one from says his has a plug on it and I don't think mine does?
Yes I just ran into that issue,
http://i1156.photobucket.com/albums/...g?t=1348187210 They are both stamped 231J the one on the right is a 21 spline and the one on the left is a 23 spline. |
The newer one have a speed sensor instead of cable driven speedo is hwat i hear. But if you have an SYE no issue or you could just swap the tailcones. Yes 21 and 23 spline difference between the AX4/5 and AX15 trans 4 bangers and 6 bangers.
you can just swap your mechanical speedo drive to the newer case. like posted 4 cyl cases have 21 spline , 6 cyl are 23. there was a gear change in the newer cases (94 and up) but thats internal.
All times are GMT -5. The time now is 01:05 AM. |
