Okay, so there was a decent amount of news last night regarding draft signings courtesy of Brian McTaggart.
Mark Appel: Not signed, but fully engaged in talks. Luhnow hopes to sign him this week.
Andrew Thurman: The 2nd Round pick signed for full slot value ($1,397,200) and will report to Tri-City.
The Astros also signed 28th Round pick Jordan Mills, 30th Round pick Jorge Perez, 33rd Round pick Tyler White, and 36th Round pick J.D. Osborne.
And, thanks to Dustin on Twitter, we find that the Astros have signed undrafted free agents Brett Clements and Kevin Ferguson.
Clements, a catcher out of Nova Southeastern University (J.D. Martinez's alma mater), is 5'9" 180lbs and hit .292/.400/.359 with 22K:24BB for the Sharks in 2013, starting 42 of 46 games and committing two errors.
Kevin Ferguson is a pitcher from Northeastern University and led the Huskies in wins (seven), IP (104.1IP), and ERA (2.59). In 104.1IP, Ferguson allowed 90H/30ER, 93K:28BB and a .231 BAA.

Tyler. Is that Brian White's middle/other name? (He's listed as Brian White at MLB.com)

During the draft, the Astros announced him as "Tyler". I'm assuming it's a middle/preferred name.

DETROIT—A June trial is scheduled for a Detroit-area man charged with second-degree murder after shooting a young woman on his porch.
Theodore Wafer was arraigned Wednesday in Wayne County Circuit Court about a month after a judge in another court found probable cause to send him to trial. A not guilty plea was entered. His trial is scheduled June 2 and Judge Qiana Lillard expects it to take two weeks.
Wafer shot and killed 19-year-old Renisha McBride through his screen door before dawn Nov. 2. He says he feared for his safety at his Dearborn Heights home.
Earlier McBride had smashed her car into a parked car about a half-mile away in Detroit. Witnesses say she was injured but walked away. Her autopsy revealed a very high blood-alcohol level.

By introducing a new set of model numbers, BMW has effectively doubled its range by allowing sedan and coupe models to have different identities.
Whereas the X6 was always a rather awkward, cumbersome-looking offshoot from the chunky BMW X5, this new X4 Concept is far more successful, with its well-proportioned curves and interesting swage lines along the flanks to add features to the large doors.
With its higher seating position and generous interior space, for front seat passengers at least, it should make an interesting alternative to a sedan-based coupe or run-of-the-mill crossover SUV.
The front-end has classic BMW styling features such as the kidney grille with hollowed-out, gloss black bars with a milled lower third and a matt finishing to give it extra visual depth. There are also twin circular headlights with LED embellishment.
The coupe-style roofline sweeps elegantly downwards and makes the car appear longer. The windows extend all the way to the rear, where they are bordered by an interpretation of BMW's Hofmeister kink. The stretched and shallow band of glass creates a dynamic link between the greenhouse and body.
Undoubtedly more details will emerge about this interesting new concept and the production vehicle it heralds, but fitted with either BMW's 240hp 2.0L turbo i4 or 300hp 3.0L turbo i-6 motors and an eight-speed transmission, the X4 promises to be an interesting proposition for new car buyers in 2014.

text: WOW! I'm so excited to share this with the whole community. Your most disrespcted BlackICE is the best firewall now with Advaced app control. I ran the Firehole and TooLeaky test against it, and guess what, they had totally failed. BlackICE detected them trying to access the internet espically for TooLeaky. Howerver, Firehole was much more complicated, it hooked itself to all running apps and so, I had to terminate all of them. I contacted Kerio regard these hole 2 days ago, and today, they reply saying that TooLeaky will fail to access the internet in their next release, but however, Firehole might still be on the loose. So, this proved that ISS ROCKs! Too bad BlackICE have to kill the program that Firehole was hooking to........ WELL WELL WELL, what the heck are you wait for? Upgrade your BlackICE to version 3.5!

First of all, thank you for taking the time to read my letter.
I would like to tell you about something that happened to me recently in my sociology class. I am in the second year of the UT program with a five course load. At the beginning of the semester, I registered for five courses but was placed on a waiting list and so it wasn't until after the first week of classes that I actually started attending classes.
I had no problem getting course outlines and handouts for my other courses, with the except of one course, Sociology 1120. On my first day of class, which was a week into the semester, I apologized to the instructor, explaining the reason for my absence, but the instructor said, "You'd better drop the class." That really depressed me a little bit though. Then he emphasized that he didn't want to hear any explanation about being absent. He also warned me that there was going to be a quiz next Wednesday. I was so nervous by what he said that I worked hard at making detailed class notes, and when he highly recommend "The birth and death of meaning" by Ernest Becker and talked about its six main ideas, I went to library to search for the book but I could not find it or any copies of it, not even photocopied pages.
I asked one of the librarians to help me. We found 76 reference books on reserve for sociology 1120, and not one of them was placed on reserve by my instructor. The librarian suggested that I speak with the instructor, so I went back to the instructor with that request but my request was instantly denied. He said that he never puts any of his copies or books in the library on reserve, but added--before leaving me standing there--"Can you access the public library or use any other universities' resources?"
As a full-time student I have taken many science courses at this college during last year, so I understand there are many different ways for instructors to teach. Although I didn't get any help from my sociology 1120 instructor, I still tried my best because I like sociology. (Many of the concepts really help me, an ESL student, to understand differences between the eastern and western world.) I used the other sociology instructors' reference books and copies in order to study the synopses required by my instructor.
I always show my respect to my instructors for their efforts. However, this Tuesday's lecture, when I quietly stood up to go to the washroom, my 1120 instructor stopped me at the door and took at least one full minute to say in front of the entire class, "If you want to leave the class, you do not need to come back again." I said, " Excuse me" and left frightened and in shock. I went and grabbed a cup of coffee to calm down a little bit and then went back to class. When I went in, he told me that coffee is not allowed in his class, so I put the coffee aside. After class, as I was packing up and getting ready to leave, he rushed right up to me almost yelling, "If you bring coffee in next week, you'd better go to the registration office and drop the class!" I couldn't believe that he told me twice to drop the course and, moreover, just a month before the new semester is about to start.
It really hurts me a great deal! I like sociology very much. My other sociology instructor in 1121 helps me out a lot. She not only copies the outline for me, she also encourages me to get notes from other students to cover the parts I missed. I think she treats everyone equally. When two girls left her lecture mid-way through on Tuesday, she didn't say anything to them. In contrast, the 1120 instructor really makes me feel as if I am being treated unfairly. This past Thursday two classmates brought coffee into his class and nothing was said about it.
I feel very stressed now in his class, and the pressure I feel is making it difficult for me to concentrate on the upcoming 1120 sociology mid-term. I don't want to be silence about these things, so I decide to write this to you. My hope is that we will be able to talk about this in person.

NHL CapsulesNHL.com @NHLdotcom
NEW YORK, N.Y. - Ryane Clowe, Derick Brassard and John Moore injected instant offence just hours after being acquired by the Rangers, and New York scored a season-high three power-play goals in a surprisingly dominant 6-1 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins on Wednesday night.
Clowe came to New York on Tuesday night in a trade with San Jose, and Brassard was part of the package New York received on Wednesday in the deal that sent star forward Marian Gaborik to Columbus right before the NHL trade deadline.
Clowe scored two goals ? after netting none for the Sharks in 28 games this season ? and added an assist, and Brassard had a goal and three assists for the Rangers, who scored three times in the first period and never looked back. Brian Boyle and defenceman Ryan McDonagh added goals, and Henrik Lundqvist stopped 26 shots in the Rangers' highest-scoring game of the season.
The Rangers won their second straight home game, scoring a combined 10 goals in the victories after a pair of shutout losses, and moved into a tie with the New Jersey Devils and New York Islanders with 39 points at the bottom of the Eastern Conference playoff race.
Pascal Dupuis scored in the second period for the Penguins, who lost for the second consecutive night after 15 consecutive victories, two shy of tying the NHL record for longest winning streak
PHILADELPHIA (AP) ??? Wayne Simmonds and Erik Gustafsson scored goals late in the third period and Philadelphia won a third straight game for the first time this season as it makes a push for a playoff spot.
The Flyers had been 1-11 when trailing after two periods.
With the Flyers trailing 3-2, Simmonds tipped in the puck from the crease for the tying goal. Less than 2 minutes later, Gustafsson's pass for Matt Read went off a defenceman and into the net past a stunned Carey Price for his 10th goal and a 4-3 lead.
Jakub Voracek scored an empty-netter with 39 seconds left.
Sean Couturier and Simon Gagne also scored for the Flyers. Alexei Emelin, Brandon Prust and David Desharnais scored for Montreal.

So ever since Monday's explosive episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, we've been pondering the question of what Brandi Glanville said about Adrienne Maloof and Paul Nassif that made them freak the hell out like they did. But somehow the person who really made them freak out like they did -- Kim Richards -- has pretty much escaped scrutiny for her role in the whole mess. But the fact is, none of this had to go down like it did if Kim hadn't felt the need to run and tattle the instant she saw Paul and Adrienne.
I don't fault her for telling them; I would want a friend to tell me if someone said something behind my back. But the time and place were SO inappropriate, and it seemed as if she just couldn't wait to start some drama and perhaps get back at Brandi a little, even if on the surface they've made up.
Kim, of course, has an explanation for why she did it in the manner in which she did, but it's flimsy at best.
On her Bravo blog she wrote:
When I heard it, I felt like a knife went through me for Adrienne. I couldn't believe what I had heard. As close as Adrienne and I have been over the last few years, I felt like if it were true, I would have known about it for sure. And if I didn't know, then she didn't want anybody to know.
She said that as soon as she got home from the dinner at which Brandi dropped the big bomb, she tried to call Adrienne, but couldn't reach her. So when she saw them at the event she "just didn't feel it could wait."
I thought maybe they could talk to Brandi and put a stop to this, as it could potentially be devastating to their family. I felt so bad for Paul and Adrienne.
But in the middle of Mauricio's big party?! The next morning would have been soon enough and certainly saved the ugly spectacle that followed. I don't doubt that Adrienne and Brandi would have had it out at some point over the matter, but it didn't have to be like this. And I'm sure Kyle Richards -- who was horrified that this was going down at her husband's big agency event -- would agree.
Kim stated, "I hope you all understand that I came from a caring place, and I didn't mean to make trouble for anyone." And I suppose we can give her the benefit of the doubt about her motives, but she also needs to take some of the blame for the fallout too.
Do you think Kim was wrong to tattle to Adrienne and Paul about what Brandi said like she did?

LSU Marching Band #1 In Nation [VIDEO]
Everyone talks about LSU football; How about some props for the folks in the LSU "Golden Band from Tigerland?" They've been named the #1 college marching band in the nation!
The Golden Band from Tigerland" recently received yet another national recognition, as the world renowned LSU Tiger Marching Band has been included in a top ten list of "The Best Marching Bands for 2011-12," compiled by The Huffington Post. Here they are in action!
From the LSU Press release
"Marching bands are awesome," Huffington Post writer Anna Susman wrote in the article. "This invaluable part of the college football experience gets the crowd amped up, and generates competitive spirit between the two schools battling from supremacy. The following colleges have nurtured marching bands that always impress, always excite and always showcase their full talent."
While the list does not give specific rankings for each school, the Tiger Marching Band is displayed as the third band in a slideshow presentation on the Huffington Post's website.
"'The Golden Band from Tigerland' out of Louisiana State University dazzles audiences with their consistent talent and their "Golden Girls," the article reads. "The band received the Sudler Trophy in 2002, and in 2008 won a contest sponsored by ESPN, Paramount Pictures and Lucasfilm called 'Battle of the Bands.'"
The Tiger Marching Band joins other university marching bands on the list representing universities such as fellow Southeastern Conference members Texas A&M University and the University of Tennessee Knoxville, as well as those from the University of Texas, University of Southern California, Ohio State University, University of Michigan, Florida A&M University, University of Notre Dame and West Virginia University.
"The LSU Tiger Band is delighted to be selected as one of the top ten college marching bands of 2011-2012," said LSU Director of Athletic Bands Roy King. "It is an honor to be in the company of the other marching bands who were selected. Congratulations to the directors, staff and students of these fine organizations for all the hard work they do to represent their universities in such a prestigious manner."
To see the complete list, which includes links to performance videos, visit http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/07/06/best-marching-bands-college_n_1654915.html#slide=more237239.
The LSU Tiger Marching Band, which includes the Golden Girls dance line and Colorguard, is the largest and most visible single organization on campus, with a closed membership of 325 students. The band was recognized nationally for its outstanding achievements by the John Philip Sousa Foundation in 2002, receiving the prestigious Sudler Trophy.

Nabokov stops 35 for 53rd NHL shutout in Islanders' 4-0 win over reeling SabresNHL.com @NHLdotcom
BUFFALO, N.Y. - Evgeni Nabokov stopped 35 shots in the New York Islanders' 4-0 win over the skidding and unraveling Buffalo Sabres, who were booed off the ice for a second consecutive home game on Saturday night.
Mark Streit and Michael Grabner broke the game open with goals 65 seconds apart late in the second period. John Tavares and Colin McDonald sealed the win with third-period goals. Matt Moulson added two assists in helping the Islanders (8-9-1) win their second straight and fourth in six games.
Nabokov was particularly sharp in stopping 13 shots in the second period for his first shutout of the season and 53rd of his NHL career.
The Sabres have lost four in a row and five of six. They are 4-12-1 in their past 17.

The work of the street artist known as 108 is much like his pseudonym: simple and mysterious. Often large black masses of abstract street art inhabit walls. Devoid of most or any detail, these masses are frequently punctuated by bursts of color. In a way the colorful abstractions feel like offshoots or biological growths on the larger black masses. There is a larger flow to his murals that are somehow familiar. The shapes, the way interact with their surfaces, and the way in interacts with itself feels organic. 108 explains this idea in a 2006 interview saying:
"Usually I work in public spaces, you know, and the background is the most important thing. I must find a good shapes for that place, usually I prefer old walls and abandoned places, and my "thing" grow by it self, as a tree or moss did, but I know nature do that really better than me! It's very hard for me to work on a blank white surface… in that situations I must find a good inspiration elsewhere, maybe in another work I did before or working with a good friend with good ideas."
Other times his abstract murals almost hint at an iconography, symbols, or recognizable shapes. Like much abstraction there is a lot of room for interpretation. Still, he goes on to say:
"Most of my works come from my unconscious and are totally irrational. You can see the abstract, soft and gloomy shapes… My works are also very symbolic. The same old example of the wheel, I found it in my unconscious, it was a big fixation for me… usually I have drawn it with 8 rays inside… In fact it was the sun wheel, one of the most important symbol in ancient Indoeuropean cultures (you can find it in a lot of Indian and Celtic stuff). This is just one example."

But we not only knew who our neighbors were then, we actually were friends with them . . . some lifelong, like-family friends.

"The Case for Automated Remastering" is a 5 part series exploring a changing paradigm within Engineering Systems Interoperability (ESI). This latest post explores how processes and metrics can be applied to ESI.
Part 2: Processes & Metrics – Missing Pieces of the ESI Puzzle
When it comes to architecting processes for PLM solutions, many manufacturers are drowning in a sea of technical and administrative due diligence. However, organizations often neglect to apply this same type of due diligence to architecting and implementing Engineering Systems Interoperability (ESI) solutions.
The situation offers tremendous upside for managers that oversee process and/or quality controls. In some cases, the internal rate of return on an ESI project can be two to ten times the investment. The problem is that some manufacturers treat ESI as a problem point within the value chain, when in essence, these problems can (and will) propagate themselves at multiple points within the value chain.
With the model-based enterprise (MBE), as more data is populated in the upstream CAD model, conversely, there is more that can go wrong in the downstream systems. In cases where these models are constantly being manipulated and reused (but not in a consistent way), process controls, operational metrics, and technical oversight are the primary means of enforcing MBD policies. Automated remastering can help solve these problems by providing processes, metrics, and activity tracking.
The Automated Remastering Process – A Holistic View
Figure 2.1 illustrates an end-to-end holistic view of automated remastering to help engineering IT managers create the overall project vision.
Using an automated remastering process offers three distinct tactical advantages: 1) scales to accommodate multiple programs, the enterprise, and/or the supply chain, 2) portable to other programs/products and 3) includes API "hooks" into PLM software applications and workflow.
The process also dovetails into three financial advantages: 1) incorporates/integrates your team's existing ESI technologies, 2) uses a hybrid model that balances both automation and manual intervention to offset labor costs, and 3) leverages Lean building blocks to justify, measure and oversee the process.
Figure 2.1 – Automated Remastering Top-Level Process
Each point within the process above represents a separate workflow that can be modified to fit within your PLM environment and/or IT infrastructure. Figure 2.2 (below) represents a simplified, project-specific automated remastering workflow for a 5,000-part dataset.
Figure 2.2 – Automated Remastering Sample Workflow
Forming the Basis for an Internal Rate of Return
As with any ESI process, regardless of domain (CAD, CAE, CAM, PLM, MRO, etc.), a manager's ability to measuring the internal investment return and subsequently realizing those results, is critical. For many purchasing situations, finance recognizes Lean methodologies to help justify capital expenditures.
In the example below, we illustrate how process efficiencies and labor waste may be depicted in a visual management model depicting value-added and non-value added time. For this particular project, labor hours were assigned to each bar on the chart; the subsequent report included detailed workflows.
Figure 2.3 – Depicting ESI Value-Added (VA) & Non-Value Added (NVA) Time
Collecting ESI Metrics for Cost-Benefit Analyses
The Process of automated remastering includes a qualification workflow to help managers analyze data sets, predict potential trouble spots, mitigate risk and prioritize spending. The technology within this workflow provides both top-level and in-depth analyses for MBD data moving between systems, including 3D models and assemblies, the 2D drawings and Product Manufacturing Information (PMI).
Figure 2.4 – Sample of Metrics or Cost-Benefit Analyses
ESI Projects should leverage Process-Centric Methods & Measures
The reasons why automated remastering is an acceptable option for any ESI initiative is that the solution offers a scalable, repeatable and portable process that captures metrics and measures. The technology powering the process offers managers the capability of overseeing the details of what is actually happening to their intellectual property. In the next article, we will explore the technologies that managers can use to deploy a cost-effective hybrid solution consisting of automation and manual intervention.

HARTFORD -- President Obama will travel to the state next week to push for gun control, the second trip he has made to Connecticut since the Newtown shootings.
The White House announced the event in a statement Tuesday:
"On Monday, April 8, President Obama will travel to the University of Hartford where he will continue asking the American people to join him in calling on Congress to pass common-sense measures to reduce gun violence. Additional details on the President's event at the University of Hartford will be forthcoming."
The President is expected to be joined by Newtown families at the event. As action on gun control seems to be losing steam in Congress, the White House has continued to aggressively call for sweeping new laws. This visit follows one from Obama immediately after the shooting and another from Vice President Biden later in February.

Don't Let Your Mates Drink and Drown
You wouldn't let a mate drive when they've had a skinful, so why let them get in the water? And if you don't think it's dangerous, think again. A staggering 1995 Australian men have lost their lives by drowning in the last decade (that's four times the number of women), 37% of them with drugs and/or alcohol in their system.
443 of those deaths were in Queensland alone, with 40% known to have involved intoxicants of one kind or another.
Why so many blokes? Well, we're idiots, aren't we? Especially when we've got a drink inside us. Where we might just have had enough common sense sober, we suddenly think we're Superman after a few bevvies.
To raise awareness of this issue, Royal Life Saving Society Australia has launched Don't Let Your Mates Drink and Drown in time for summer. The campaign is urging men to look out for their mates and call out the sorts of risk-taking behaviour that can lead to accidents and drowning.
"Look out for your mates, leave the booze until safely away from the water, and pull them into line if they're under the influence and thinking about swimming or boating. You can literally save their life."
- Justin Scarr, Royal Life Saving Society Australia
Take the case of Matt Naysmith. He was just 21 when his life was changed forever by a completely avoidable accident.
Having booked an around-the-world ticket, Matt and a group of friends spent the day at Karijini National Park to celebrate.
Matt was drunk when he ignored warning signs and climbed to the top of a waterfall. Tragically, he slipped and was sent hurtling over the edge and into the gorge, landing heavily on rocks, breaking his neck and severing his spinal cord. He was told he would never walk again.
Matt's life changed in that fateful moment. "My injury took me from 'living' a great life to becoming a spectator in an instant; it's like sitting on the sidelines - you know what you want to do and you know how to do it but you just can't," said Matt.
Matt says he never should have been drinking around water in the first place, being known by friends for making 'stupid decisions' under the influence of alcohol.
"A series of poor decisions that I made that day took away so many things that I treasured in life, including travel, relationships, lifestyle, and freedom. Don't make the same mistake."
- Matt Naysmith
We all know guys like Matt who do stupid stuff under the influence. The message here is, it's really not cool to let them.
Now that you know what not to do, here's our pick of the Gold Coast's best swimming spots:
- Burleigh Heads
- Tallebudgera Creek
- Currumbin Alley
Stay safe and enjoy the summer!

To be completely honest with you, there isn't very much we know about the owner of this Championship White 1993 Civic CX. We know that his name is Joshua Antolin and he hails from the great state of Hawaii-and that's about it. Instead of going the traditional route of telling you a story behind an enthusiast's build, we're going to try something a little different. Let's break the "fourth wall", so to speak, for a different twist on what you're used to reading. If you don't know what the hell the "fourth wall" is, try to remember an episode of Saved by the Bell when Zach Morris freezes time, turns to the audience and speaks directly to them-that's what's considered "breaking the fourth wall". (Still clueless? Clearly you're too young to know what SBTB or who Kelly Kapowski is.) What I'm trying to do today is something similar-sort of. Breaking the fourth wall usually means that you're being pulled out of an imaginary scenario but in the world of automotive publication, what you're seeing and reading is very real.
In the years that I've been writing for Super Street, we've seen it all; all types of cars, different styles of tuning and getting to know each personality that makes up our crazy world. How these features come together before they hit print is pretty predictable. We see a car, find the owner, arrange for the car to be shot and have them fill out various forms, one of them being the 'tech sheet'. These tech sheets open the lines of communication between the owner and the writers for the magazine, and usually includes every important piece of info you'll need, from knowing which parts were used, right up to the entire back story on how the car came together. Some tech sheets are filled out in an incredibly detailed fashion, with every important aspect of the build documented, but sometimes you get little to no information at all, with the questions we ask responded to in one or two words. In those instances, it is our job to get in touch with them to see if they can give us some sort of story about their build. If for whatever reason we can't get a hold of the owner, we then have to proceed to use the power of the worldwide web to dig up any information we can on the owner and their car-(begin sarcasm) the part we love most (end sarcasm).
If Joshua was planning on living off the grid, he's done an incredible job of it because there is little to no information on his Civic. He doesn't peruse any internet forums, doesn't have a cool internet nickname that people would immediately recognize, and (gasp) the guy is non-existent on any social media outlet. A decade ago, it would be considered "normal" but in the information-age, the guy is practically a ghost. The age-old phone call and email were also extended but with no response. We noticed his car was spotlighted one other time on a popular car website but after a thorough reading, they, too, weren't able to squeeze a whole lot of information out of the guy. To offer you a better understanding, one of the main questions on the tech sheet was "Why did you build this vehicle?" Joshua's response was simply, "To be cool." We agree that his Civic is indeed cool but it would have been great had he tossed us that proverbial bone.
The only other tidbit of info is that he's from Hawaii, and let's not kid ourselves, you've read plenty features about vehicle builds from Hawaii. Let's not forget the cliché play on words to try to manipulate something Hawaiian into the opening title. All you need to know about Hawaii is that they produce some great cars and that they've been doing so for years now. Some of the most inspirational and memorable Hondas from the past have been from the 808. The island may be small but buried in all that beautiful scenery are some true gems-you just have to find them.
Devoid of any sort of backstory, all we are left with are visual depictions of a story left untold. The Civic itself is a very well-executed build that represents the clean and simple style that Hawaiian enthusiasts have come to be known for. You'll rarely find extensive race-bred Hondas there because it's not what they are about. Hondas assembled on the island are built to be clean street cruisers and Joshua's is just that. Outside, the entire 19 year-old chassis has been massaged, door dings and minor damage repaired before being sprayed the ever-classic Honda Championship White. A BackYard Special front lip and rear duckbill spoiler serve as the only aftermarket additions to the body while OEM J-spec lighting all-around give it some Japanese chic. Both front and rear fenders have been significantly altered to house an aggressive set of staggered 16x8/9.5-inch JLine wheels. Fitting the wheels required some trickery and a lot of help from negative camber adjustments. Providing the appropriate ride height is essential to pulling of this type of wheel fitment so Function & Form was called upon for their Type 2 adjustable dampers.
As stated, an everyday street Honda in Hawaii is rarely built with a full track car appeal in mind, it just has to function and look good doing so. Joshua's engine bay reflects that. Under the hood, you won't find any forced induction components or custom oil catch cans and breathers. There isn't anything but the bare necessities like your typical air intake, header, and exhaust. The rest has been stripped down and the only major addition other than the 2000 ITR motor is negative space. Helping to free this space is a custom radiator that hides beneath the core support. On the firewall, the factory brake booster has been eliminated and mounted in its place is a Wilwood brake master cylinder. The bay was then shaved smooth and color-matched to the rest of the shell. All electrical connections deemed unnecessary are disregarded by utilizing a Rywire engine harness. The cockpit of this CX hatchback mirrors the exterior and engine bay's minimalism. Besides the MOMO steering wheel and NEXT Miracle X bar, there isn't much to go nuts about. A near complete JDM SiR interior has been supplemented but only the Honda-lover with a keen eye would catch that.
While the info for Josh's Civic is sparse, perhaps this story doesn't need to be about a car that's been stuffed to the brim with as many parts as a given tech sheet can handle. Its overall simplicity speaks volumes on its own. I'd drop another random Saved By the Bell reference but my sleep deprivation is starting to kick in; I'd better end it here.

I want to thank you all for checking in here even though I haven't made a new post in awhile – you guys must have been really bored on Friday – I had tons of hits! I promise to make it up to you when things settle down.

Reserve Bank Governor Duvvuri Subbarao on Monday cautioned the country was headed for the highest ever current account deficit this fiscal, after it rose to 5.3 per cent of GDP in the second quarter.
"Last year, CAD was 4.2 per cent of GDP, but this year we expect it would be significantly higher than that. It's going to be historically the highest CAD measured as a proportion of GDP," the governor said, though he refrained from giving any figure.
He also expressed concern over the way the CAD, which is the gap between forex gained and forex spent, is being financed by volatile inflows instead of more foreign direct investments.
Subbarao was addressing the convocation ceremony of the RBI-set up Indira Gandhi Institute of Development Research (IGIDR).
The trade gap is widening mainly because of higher import of oil and gold. The third quarter numbers are expected later this week.
Flagging his concerns over CAD, which was the overriding theme of the third quarter monetary policy announced on January 29, Subbarao said these were regarding its level, quality and the way it is being financed.
"We would not worry if the widening CAS is on account of import of capital goods, but here it is high on account of import of oil and gold.
"The other concern is the way we are financing it. We are financing our CAD through increasingly volatile flows. Instead, we should ideally be getting as much of FDI as possible to finance the CAD. On the other hand, what we are getting is a lot of volatile flows to finance it," Subbarao said.
In FY12, after hitting a high CAD of 4.3 per cent, which was then a record, CAD had declined to 3.9 per cent of GDP, though it was 10 bps above the year ago period.

Paris Carrousel
Don't miss it!
25 comments:
Here's to another new year of Paris perspectives from you (your assignment is to go to Paris is much as you possibly can so we can enjoy it vicariously through you), "sweet" dreams and more of your beautiful watercolor images of all the above. Thank you Carol for all you share and do.ReplyDelete
I'm ready - for a 2011 of getting OFF the round-and-round and moving forward with life!ReplyDelete
AND, of course, reading your blog.
I waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaant to be back in Paris!ReplyDelete
I've passed by that beautiful carrousel many times. I had never seen a double decker before.ReplyDelete
Happy New Year, Carol. I hope 2011 will be a good year for us all.
What's up those stairs, that's what I want to know? Story of my life I guess;)ReplyDelete
Happy New Year!
I love the carousels in France! I was there just before Christmas. In almost every city (over a certain size) that I've visited I've seen one (or more). :) Love your blog and your artwork, keep up the great work!ReplyDelete
.. very nice post ... thanks for all the Paris trips in 10 ... best wishes for a great 2011 .. Happy New YearReplyDelete
Bonne Annèe to you Carol!ReplyDelete
What a lovely post. I notice these beautiful carousels all the way throughout Europe. They are lovely and beckoning for a ride.
Yes I want to ride the rocking horse too.
Let's go!
I am strictly a WUSS!!! The carousel is the ONLY amusement park ride I could tolerate!!!ReplyDelete
I've never watched Mad Men but I wan to now!
No cakes today????? Is that the new PB version for 2011? You need to come back to Paris!ReplyDelete
Carrousels are wonderful works of art plunked down someplace and transforming that place with the carousel's magic. Ever notice how they seem to be all about sparkle and lights?ReplyDelete
We have a few here in RI that are historic, made by Mr.Charles Looff.
Oh, I loved that last quote--the sweet little old lady at the end of the movie "Parenthood" says it and I died laughing when she does--classic. Who doesn't love a carousel--great photos! Sometimes, yes, I do think "stop the world, I want to get off!"ReplyDelete
Love the post. I haven't seen a carousel in a long time. Never thought about them in terms of life lessons but they fit. :))ReplyDelete
Lovely, melancholy blog today. That's how entering a new decade affects me, too.ReplyDelete
I do love carrousels and there are two great ones in SF.
One once was at Playland at Ocean Beach.
Happy New Year.
It will be what we make of it.
I didn't know about Mr.Charles Looff, but now I do Nikon!ReplyDelete
Wonderful stuff...love his greyhound at the Boston MFA.
I didn't know about the immigrants or the brass ring...
I'm such a chicken when it comes to carney rides..even the merry-go-round.
The swan ride on the lake I liked :)
- Cristina in Argentina8:16 PM
Hi, Carol!!, Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!!!ReplyDelete
Love your Carrousel post today. Actually I love carrousels.
Here, in Argentina we call them CALESITAS, and the ring is called SORTIJA. We had wonderful artists working as calesitas makers, the most important were the SEQUALINO BROTHERS. They also built calesitas for uruguay,
Brazil, Chile, Paraguay. I had the pleasure to meet them long ago
( now they all passed away ) while working at an antique shop. They
were so nice and humble, even though they were already famous.
Unfortunately the factory closed in 1984.
All the best for you and Bear.
This is a wonderful post! I have no idea why, but I love carrousels. My wife, however, hates them. She saw a Twilight Zone episode that had a carrousel horse in it, and as she was young at the time, it really scared her. She said she cringes every time she sees one. I, on the other hand, would love to have an antique horse in our living room. I think it would be so magical! Man. Maybe I'm weird!ReplyDelete
Beautiful! Love your consideration of life's opportunities via which carousel animal one might choose! Something to ponder. Love your blog!ReplyDelete
Thank you Carol for all you share and do. I love carousels but I had never seen a double decker before.ReplyDelete
You're not weird in the least Bill!ReplyDelete
Carrousel horses are highly collectible examples of American folk art and quite pricey if you can even find one anymore outside a museum. I must have seen that Twilight Zone program with your wife, since I find them a bit scary. They seem imbued with an inner life that is quite fierce. Give me Bambi!
and Dumbo :)
I love carousels! I always try to ride on whenever I'm in Europe. Thanks for posting this, I'm reminded of a beautiful time. Happy New Year, Carol!ReplyDelete
such a sweet post. will have to remember to look for the brass ring...whatever that may be in each day. thx!ReplyDelete
Ahhh Carrousels.ReplyDelete
When my brothers and I were kids our parents would take us to a lake, and we would always ride the Carrousel.
I smile wistfully on those occasions when I drive by the long vacant patch of sand, on which it stood.
Thanks for sharing the wonderful information about the Paris..When I was there I visit this place and it was great to see the people enjoying with there friends and family members..I was with my family and we had a great time over there..ReplyDelete

Swimming Pool Blog

Leaves in the Pool ~ Heavy Duty leaf removal
If you have older trees surrounding your pool - you probably have the same love/hate relationship with them as I do. Pretty to look at, nice shade - but so messy around the pool. My trees started small of course, and I trim them regularly, but every autumn, the leaves always seem to fall a few days before I manage to get the pool cover on.
We have shown up to customer's pools many times to find over a foot thick carpet of leaves on the bottom, and a thick layer still floating on top. And with this many leaves, the water begins to resemble ice tea, making the cleaning effort more difficult.
In this article, we discuss ways to prevent leaves from entering the pool to begin with, methods to get them off the surface quickly before they sink, and best practices for dredging leaves from the bottom of the pool.
How to Keep Leaves out of the Pool
1. Use of a Leaf Net (not the skimmer type) laid over top of your pool during fall can keep the leaves out of the pool very effectively. Usually, leaf nets are used as a top cover for solid pool covers, to make leaf removal from your pool cover very easy, but they can also be used by themselves. Leaf Nets are held in place with a few heavy objects around the pool, or they can be hooked onto deck anchors. You can also connect thin rope or twine to the grommets on the edge of the leaf net, and tie these off on a fence or tent stakes off the pool deck.
2. Trim those trees! A major trim every 5 years, in addition to pruning every fall, will keep your work load down. Just yesterday, I was out using the Pool Pole Pruner on an oak tree and a walnut tree - and these aren't even surrounding the pool. By attaching the pole pruner to a regular pool pole, you can reach up and trim overhanging branches or palm fronds. My wife won't let me climb the trees anymore, so the pool pole pruner comes in real handy. Very sharp, it cuts through a 1" branch with about 5 minutes of saw time. Even good for reaching over the fence to cut your neighbor's poplar tree (Hi, Tom)!
3. Automatic Pool Covers really keep a pool clean. Maybe a dramatic fix for the problem, but auto covers will keep the leaves out of the pool! Cleaning the auto cover, certainly is easier than cleaning the pool.A technique is to pump most water off, then, as you roll up the cover, use a hose or a leaf blower to clean it as it comes out of the pool. Using a pool brush on a pole can help push the leaves and water to one area, where a leaf rake on a pole can scoop them out faster than having them spread over the entire cover.
Mesh pool covers can also keep a pool clean during fall, but require some effort to put on and off than do the automatic covers. You could just attach the corners, but remember that this may not be safe.
Solar blankets? Many people put these on during fall, but if you've ever had to clean one full of leaves, you may put it away earlier next year. Solar blankets don't usually come over the edge of the pool, and with rain or pool water on top, become hard to clean. In dry areas however, the Cover Catch accessory makes a helpful tool. A floating net, approximately 2'x4', the CoverCatch slides under the end of the solar blanket, and catches the leaves as you sweep off your solar blanket, to keep them from falling in the pool.
4. Hedges, fences and other windbreaks, set up to block the prevailing wind across the pool, can have a small effect. As part of the overall landscape design around the pool, if trees are called for, bushes and ground covers and decorative fencing can help keep the leaves up against a barrier and out of the pool.
How to Get Leaves off the Surface Quickly, Before they Sink
1. Reduce the suction from the main drain of the pool, so that the skimmers are pulling their strongest. If you have two Skimmers, you may also need to adjust the valves to equalize their suction. For example, open the far skimmer fully, while opening the near skimmer only 75%, to adjust for the closeness to the pool pump. Better skimmer action will keep the leaves from sinking to the floor.
2. Make sure that your skimmer weir is in place. Skimmer weirs really improve the speed of the water flowing into the skimmer, and when the pump shuts off, the skimmer weir floats to a vertical position, trapping leaves inside of the skimmer.
3. If you have a vinyl pool, using a skimmer diverter arm will help direct leaves into the skimmer basket. These must work, because they are such a good selling item.
4. Direct your return fittings so that there is a slight ripple on the surface, to keep the leaves moving. Arrange your eyeball fittings so that they both point in the same direction, to create a circular flow pattern around the pool. The slight ripple on the surface should fade as you get closer to the skimmer, or else you will speed up the surface too much, and the leaves will blow right past the skimmer opening.
5. If you have problems with broken skimmer baskets, from too many hard packed leaves, try the Skimpro cloggless skimmer basket. This innovative skimmer basket keeps the water flowing to the pump, which protects the pump and also keeps the skimmer skimming, even when the basket is full! The Skimpro also makes a nice handle for pulling the basket out of the skimmer.
6. Keep your water level mid tile, don't allow rain to raise the water level so much that the leaves have trouble entering the mouth of the skimmer.
How to Remove Leaves from the Pool
1. My favorite tool for removing leaves from the pool will always be a Leaf Rake. Not to be confused with a "dip & flip" type of flat skimmer net, the Leaf Rake has a bag or a deep pocket. This allows it to be used as a "drag bag" pulling it behind you, or push it across the floor and scoop up leaves from the floor. After practice with a leaf rake, one can become quite proficient in cleaning a pool. Even if a pool is dark green and filled with a foot deep layer of leaves - patience, a strong back and a good leaf rake can clean it in a few hours.
The technique is to feel the bottom with the leading edge of the leaf rake, slowly pushing forward not too fast, or bouncing slightly to create a very small current. When you reach the far point, a quick flip over of the net with a sharp pull towards you creates a counter current. Too much current created as you scoop will send leaves hurling toward the surface, but not enough and the leaves will come out of the bag. The leaf rake is also used in the same manner while removing heavy surface debris. Once around the edge of the pool fast, and then back and forth across the pool, as if you were mowing a lawn.
2. If lower back strength is not your strong point, the Swivel Skim has mounted two rope floats on a swiveling axis inside the supersized net. Popular with commercial pools, the Swivel Skim relieves you from holding the leaf rake level with the surface - and, also no spine twisting quick-flip needed when you reach the other side. Just push and pull the Swivel Skim.
3. Pool Blaster - a tool that attaches to a garden hose and your telescopic pool pole. It has a very large bag attached to the top, and the pressure from a garden hose sprays dozens of jets upward into the bag. This creates a venturi effect, and as the Pool Blaster rolls over leaves, the venturi current pulls them up into the bag. The greater the hose pressure is, the faster it will clean. A great tool in any leaf removal arsenal, the Pool Blaster is sometimes used with pool owners whose filter pump system is not large enough to vacuum with a standard hose and vacuum head.
4. In Line leaf trap. If your pump is large enough to vacuum manually, but you're tired of stopping every 5 minutes to clean out the pump basket, an in-line leaf strainer can be the answer. Attaches the incoming port to the end of the vacuum hose, and a short 3' piece of vac hose that attaches into the skimmer or vacuum port. The in-line leaf trap is very large, probably equal to 20 pump baskets full, and a real time saver. It can also be used with suction side automatic pool cleaners.

A Trail-Prepped CherokeePosted in Project Vehicles on May 1, 2001
Sunday drives were not like this when we were kids. We usually jumped in to our 76 Dodge Dart to tool around the countryside. The closest we came to four-wheelin was a muddy gravel road, which may have caused the Dart a few problems, but nothing the 318 and two-wheel drive couldnt handle.
As for Todd Hoffmans kids they get to see a bit more wheelin from the back seat of his metallic-grey 88 XJ Cherokee. This Cherokee is not your average grocery getter/soccer practice vehicle, but an extremely solid well-built sleeper of a trail rig. We caught up with Todd on Axle Alley at last years Arizona Jamboree near his home town of Flagstaff, and were fairly impressed with its ability to follow CJs, flatties, and TJs up difficult trails. A combination of solid drivetrain, fender trimming, and a little backyard fabrication helped this XJ find its present form even before there were many aftermarket parts available for Cherokees.
