How to Contour Your Face
Want sculpted cheeks and a slimmer nose -- instantly? We asked a pro to show us the simplest and most effective face contouring techniques
If you're new to contouring, it's important to know the basics. You're always doing two things, Krizki says: the first is shading, which makes an area of skin recede from view, and the second is highlighting, which creates the illusion of bringing a feature forward. Where you put the shading and highlights depends on your features and face shape. Next, see how to contour a heart-shaped face like Heather's.

Great tricks to soften my square face! Great tips for every face shape.

I have a square face and through years of trial and error had figured out the highlighting tricks, but didn't know about the shading tricks (and never would have guessed on my own). I'm eager to give them a try.

I have never thought about my face shape or contouring until reading this story. I am going to try contouring my round face.

how do you know which face shape you are? mine could almost be any of these!

I have a heart shaped face. Have great cheekbones but a huge nose. I just kind of work with the cheekbones and distract from the nose. Good pointers. Some of the models did look a bit too darkened.

So WP is slowly catching on and yes the App store is growing. I love the OS so far compared to iOS or Android. However the one thing that is still bothering me, and one of the very few reasons why I may not stick with WP in the long run is the number of apps that are developed first for the iPhone and Android. Im sure WP has some neat apps, but most are ports from the other 2. Its interesting how every week I read about some new iPhone app that is catching on, and sure enough the developer only made it for iPhone. There is an obvious reason for that, target for the masses. This week there was some more chatter about instagram and snapchap and a new iphone app called rando. Do you all think WP will get to a point this year where we will see new apps/social media being developed for it at the same time as the other 2 or even before them...?

As much as I like Windows Phone, it's going to take at least a couple of years for it to take the number 3 spot. Every platform has its exclusives but the popular apps will always be released for iOS and Android. Also, it's likely that such an app won't be released for WP8 alongside iOS and Android.
The problem that WP faces is two juggernauts (iOS and Android) and BlackBerry. It's very unlikely that WP will surpass either of the juggernauts but it's possible that it can secure a third spot from BlackBerry. Now, BlackBerry isn't dead yet. BB10 isn't doing as well as they expected but it also isn't doing bad. And for WP to succeed, BB10 needs to suffer the same fate as Palm's WebOS. This is my opinion and just one possible outcome in the coming years. It's also possible that one of the juggernauts, iOS or Android, fails and WP gobbles up a huge chunk of the market.

WP is already secured as 3rd place but yes it will take a while before it overtakes iOS/Android but as we know on the technology landscape things can happen pretty darn quickly! That and the fact Android might start falling apart if Samsung pursues Tizen. The game could change pretty quickly. Then theres possibilities (yes they are extreme) like Android becoming a complete malware festival with web exploits and the like.

Now, BlackBerry isn't dead yet. BB10 isn't doing as well as they expected but it also isn't doing bad. .
Posted 27 March 2013 - 17:52
Of course another reason to get excited is the exclusivity part. As we informed you yesterday, this game is a "first" on Windows Phone 8 with the iPhone and Android versions due at a later date. For that, we think Miniclip and GG2 deserve at least a trial, no?

Q: Can Advance Passenger Information (API) be added
through Finnair website also for flights operated by other joint business
A: Yes. As today, the information can be added using My booking on finnair.com.

COLLEGE STATION, Texas-The No. 23 Texas A&M women's golf team will compete this weekend at the Liz Murphey Fall Preview hosted by Georgia in Athens, Ga.
The Aggies are competing after tying for sixth at the Mason Rudolph Intercollegiate in Franklin, Tenn. Sept. 21-23. While there, juniors Natalie Reeves and Chelsea Mocio tied individually for 13th and 17th, respectively. Additionally, senior Mary Michael Maggio placed 22nd.
The 54-hole tournament will be played on the UGA golf course which was ranked as one of the top 50 courses in the country by Golf Digest. The par-72 course stretches 7,240 yards and has hosted such prestigious events as the NCAA Championship, the SEC tournament and NCAA Regionals.
"It's called a preview for that reason," said A&M head coach Trelle McCombs. "We get to preview the course we're going to play on for nationals. I have played on this golf course when I was younger and I have taken a team from A&M to this course as well. It's a great golf course, but you really need to control your golf ball. It's an honor for us to have been chosen to come back. Typically, you get an invite to this preview based upon how you performed the previous year, either at nationals or on your final ranking."
The Aggies will be represented by seniors Maggio and Sarah Beth Davis and juniors Reeves, Mocio and Katerina Ruzickova.
"Chelsea Mocio came in to this season after not really traveling all that much last year," recounted McCombs. "It was a down year for her. She came out for the first tournament and won the qualifier, so that really spoke volumes for her. It's one thing to win the qualifier and another to do well at the tournament. She placed in the top 20 for the first time and counted all three rounds for us. That was huge for her. She's back in the line-up this week and I'm looking for her to just do the same things and the results will take care of themselves. Overall, I think it's a very strong team."
The first round begins at 8am (EST) Friday. The Aggies are paired with Tennessee and Duke and will tee off from the 10th hole. Live scoring from the event will be available at GolfStat.com.

When it comes to quality craftsmanship and one-of-a-kind design, luxury goods reign supreme. Luxury also usually means a price tag that has consumers digging deep into their wallets.
While some people will pay big bucks for the high-end name alone, designers and manufacturers say they have reasons for their hefty prices. The item may be handmade or a limited edition, or the design could include an expensive fabric or piece of jewelry.
Whatever the reason, some consumers don't seem to mind. Luxury sales are on the rise worldwide. In fact, the demand for luxury goods has grown by double digits since the end of the financial crisis, according to Bain & Company. Retailers like Coach and Saks have seen their stocks soar over the past three years.
Here we take a look at some items that epitomize luxury — from six-figure cars to designer shoes going for thousands of dollars — and why they have those eye-popping price tags.
Click ahead to see the luxury goods that may make you salivate but hold tight to your wallet.

I totally agree Jeff. This to me ties in with what Terry writes about race from Nanny and Rincewind's point of view. Don't care what colour a person is, if they're holding a sword, run! Nanny's views on the voodoo witch in WA. Also this is a world where the real dilemma is ' what will people think of me if I marry this nice werewolf?' It would be nice if it was one of those those things that was just a given, like how most people of any sexuality would like to be accepted rather than stand out.raisindot wrote:BaldFriede wrote:I think the point about Tonkers and Lofty is that they are lovers but they are not really lesbians. They are not interested in the same sex per se, they are interested in each other and just happen to be of the same sex. So they are technically lesbians but not really.
Gotta ask: Isn't "lesbian" or "homosexual" just a label that straight people applied to those who weren't heterosexual and that, thought most of modern history, has been pejorative until these labels were turned into labels of pride in the last 30 years of so?
I say that because in ancient times there were plenty of Greeks and Romans who had same-sex relationships and no one thought anything of it. They didn't use labels because a person's sexual practices didn't matter--it was considered to be completely 'normal.' It was only until the Judeo-Christian tradition came in an demonized these practices that these terms were invented to identify those are practitioners of acts that were considered "sinful.'
On the DW, presumably such distinctions have never been established either.
Tonker and Lofty don't classify themselves as "lesbians," because they're not even aware that what they're doing could possibly be considered sinful. In their country, two women having a sexual or loving relationship isn't necessarily sinful (we really don't know). It's far more of a sin for a woman to be a soldier.

Robots, algae and control towers – oh my the lessons to be learned.
That, in a nutshell, provides the framework of the High School High Tech program at Port St. Joe High School. Students in the program recently visited Tyndall Air Force Base where they learned about robotic weapons, alternative energies and controlling the skies as the jets fly overhead.
High School High Tech is sponsored by the Dyslexia Research Institute of Tallahassee, whose founder is county resident Dr. Pat Hardman, with partial funding from the ABLE Trust and Vocational Rehabilitation.
The program was established at Port St. Joe High School four years ago to serve students experiencing learning challenges in traditional classroom settings or curricula.
High School High Tech is for high-functioning students with disabilities who have an Individual Education Plan used to map progress for students with learning challenges.
High School High Tech aims to mold those students for the workforce, and does so on several levels, said director Lynn Hauck, two years removed from retiring as a science teacher at Port St. Joe Middle School.
"I was volunteering out here anyway so when I got this opportunity to still be involved and get paid a little bit, I was very interested," Hauck said. "This is a multi-faceted program."
Focus is improve school readiness to improve the odds of graduating in good standing; in doing that broadening a student's horizons to consider college and to assist in making that transition; and providing exposures to workplace experiences that students would embrace.
"It's really a career entry program," Hauck said. "We are trying to get them to broaden their horizons. They receive experiences that they might not otherwise get and exposure to jobs they wouldn't normally have."
The group – some 19 students are currently participating in the program – meets monthly at lunch time during which they discuss a variety of subjects pertaining to college, vocational and career training.
Much of it is basic, such as proper etiquette for interviews – no jeans, collared shirts, pants tucked in, eye contact.
"A lot of it is getting into fundamentals," Hauck said. "With some of them, a lot of it is drawing them out, but the older students are pretty gung-ho. They see the benefits."
The benefits include job shadowing days in small businesses around town and summer employment for some. Students, by attending and participating in various events and programs within the HSHT umbrella, also earn points.
Eighty-points earns a student a refurbished laptop computer from the Dyslexia Research Institute. Sixty points earns summer employment.
"That is the ultimate, they work for three weeks during the summer and if they stay with it they get a monetary bonus at the end," Hauck said. "A lot of times that job does grow out of the job shadowing. We've had several students work for CVS and for Fairpoint (Communications).
"And they do have to participate. This is a real job. We had 11 kids that worked this past summer and that is really good."
One of those was Torey Williams, a junior who worked this past summer at Fairpoint. That exposure has led the possibility that Williams will pursue a job in computers or technology.
"I do like working with computers," Williams said. "The program has really taught me responsibility for work, for learning something and sticking to it.
"It makes me feel more comfortable about going out and getting a job. I can put on my resume that I participated in the program and what I learned."
She'noya Fennell worked at CVS last summer. Also a junior, she is focused on getting the computer she fell a points shy of last year, a computer Williams earned.
"The program has given me more insight into what field I wanted to go into," Fennell said, adding she hopes to pursue a career in the medical field. "Actually being able to work with people in that field helped a lot.
"You are put in the field you want to be in and you learn so much about it."
The trip to Tyndall was another of the perks for students in High School High Tech, who regularly experience workplace field trips during the school year.
Their host was Barbara Copeland Civ USAF ACC 325 FSS/FSFR who worked with Hauck to organize the visit.
Students visited Wright Laboratories and were exposed to alternative energies for use in countries such as Afghanistan. Experiments were on going in the growing and the use of algae as an alternate, replenishable fuel.
They visited the "tent city" where solar panels were built into the top of tents to test for use in lighting, electricity and air conditioning.
They also visited the robotics laboratory where robots were used for a wide variety of functions, such as mine detection and sweeping, perimeter patrol and use in checkpoints. The students were able to manipulate the robots in simulating the observation, retrieval and detonation of bombs.
"That was pretty cool," Williams said. "We got to play with robots. They were showing us all kinds of things they could do. They are so advanced."
Students also went to the flight line where the air traffic controllers worked and trained. There is a state of the art simulator for training air traffic controllers which the students were able to see in action.
"You learn all about the tower and the responsibilities," Fennell said. "I thought that was very interesting."

Some kind of crow-like bird would be perfect
Yes, the figure needs a familiar
No, the figure is fine as is
So far, a few of the female figures have extra "bird" accessories. I was thinking Shadow Weaver could use her own darkly colored bird in a future weapons pak. What does everyone think of this?
Does Shadow Weaver need her own separate bird/familiar?
Some kind of crow-like bird would be perfect

Lich Leech feedback thread
Doesn't she have a vulture?
Top Ten MOTUC wants: Sagitar, Great Black Wizard, Fang-or, Dragstor, Skeletor's Skeleton Warriors, Despara, Odiphus, Illumina w/Sleetah, Lady Slither, Tuvar & Baddrah 2-pack
Nah, she's fine as is.

She has a vulture named Syrax. I'd like to get it & the cool stand with skulls on it.
The Space Mutants are missing something CRITAcal!
Chocolate and Vanilla swiiiirl. Swur-Urrl. -Crazy Eyes
I voted YES, but Syrax the vulture needs to have some new tooling, I don't want another falcon.
"Don't crowd me boys!"
I would love to see her vulture in a future weapons pack.
My Trader Feedback: http://www.he-man.org/forums/boards/...mighty-He-Dad!
At first, I was gonna say no...But you guys are right; She had that pet vulture, Syrax! Now that I look at him again, he would be a cool add-on to the next weapons pack!
no. I'm tired of the birds and I have a TOD bird that doesn't have a base!
Syrax, eh? And there hasn't been any complaining about why he didn't come with her already? Orgers are slippin'...
Syrax would be great. Shoot, I'd take a black falcon for her too, with yellow eyes...! But yeAh: Syrax!
Not to sound like a creepy cheerleader for Uki, but it's nice to know there is at least one person on this forum who is extremely positive & friendly all the time. I don't think I could be that nice even if you paid me. If we ever give out awards for "forum member of the month", Uki gets my vote. -Mr. Shokoti
no. weird poll.
next poll: does Bow need a dog?
I won't tell you what other meaning "bird" has in Italian... it's something worthy of the Tar Swamp.
Anyway, I voted no.
Pasta la vista, baby!
Hoping for some more NA figures in MOTUC... at least 12 more!
I'd love to see Syrax, as well as Skeletor's Raven, in MOTUC (provided they come with stands. The whole birds without stands thing irks me.)
Come on Matty! Show me DRAGSTOR!!!
Not a bird... and not that vulture....
But I think a cool Horde shaped bat creature would have been cool
Only if Mer-Man gets a goldfish.
MOTUC Most Wanted : Attak Trak, Stridor, Night Stalker, Masks of Power Demons,
Alcala-Style-Figures, Point Dread & Talon Fighter
I thought he was called Styrax? Anyway, he'd be a good accessory to include with Melog.
No, Shadow Weaver is fine as is. She doesn't need a bird or another familiar. We already have enough birds in MotUC in my opinion:
- Zoar (Teela)
- Screech (Evil-Lyn)
- Zoar (Sorceress)
- Glorybird (Star Sisters)
- Zoar (ToD Sorceress version; part of the Great Unrest Weapons Pak).

It would be great to see her vulture included in the line somehow!!

I think they should release the bird as a full priced SKU.... with Shadow Weaver as a hidden accessory.
I'd buy that

The club secured its position in the league's top four with a 3-1 win over Crystal Palace Baltimore on Sept. 25. The top eight clubs in the USSF D-2 Pro League advance to the postseason, which begins the week of Oct. 4. The Timbers' first-round opponent will be determined during the final week of the regular season.
Entering the weekend, the Timbers (13-7-9, 48pts) are on a season-long, nine-match unbeaten streak. During the unbeaten run, the Timbers have out-scored their opponents 13-4 and have logged six shutouts. On the road for a fourth straight week, the Timbers are 4-0-1 away from PGE Park during their unbeaten streak and have conceded just one goal in those five away matches.
Midfielder Ryan Pore continues to lead the race for the league's scoring title and Golden Boot award heading into the final week of the regular season. He has a league-best 15 goals and 34 points, while Austin Aztex forward Eddie Johnson ranks second in both categories with 14 goals and 32 points, respectively.
The Timbers and Whitecaps (10-5-14, 44pts) square off for the fourth time this season. Through the first three matchups, the Timbers are unbeaten against their rival with a record of 2-0-1. The last time the two sides met, the Timbers claimed their first victory in Vancouver since 2004, earning a 2-1 win on a game-winning goal by defender Mamadou Danso on July 22. Since 2001, the Timbers are 11-18-9 in regular-season matches against the Whitecaps, but have a 2-14-2 record in Vancouver over the past 10 seasons. Portland is unbeaten in its last five regular-season meetings against Vancouver.
Saturday's contest features two of the top defensive teams in the league. The Whitecaps have allowed a league-low 20 goals during the campaign, while the Timbers rank second in fewest goals allowed with 21.
With a winning record against the Whitecaps this season, the Timbers have captured the 2010 Cascadia Cup, winning the fan-based derby for a second straight season. Started in 2004, the Cascadia Cup was originally a competition between United Soccer Leagues' Seattle Sounders, Portland and Vancouver. The cup is awarded to the team with the best record in head-to-head matchups between the Northwest clubs. All three clubs will compete for the cup once again in 2011 when the Timbers and Whitecaps join Seattle Sounders FC in MLS.
The USSF D-2 Pro League playoffs feature a two-game, aggregate-goal series for the first, semifinal and championship rounds. The Timbers will host their first-round, home playoff match on Sunday, Oct. 10, at Merlo Field on the University of Portland campus; kickoff is scheduled for 6 p.m. Timbers 2010 playoff tickets are available in three-game strips for $65; all playoff tickets are general admission. Playoff ticket strips are available by calling the Timbers ticket office at (503) 553-5555. A select number of single-game playoff tickets will be available on match day.
In a tight race for the NASL Conference title, the Whitecaps are tied with the Carolina RailHawks at the top of the conference standings at 44 points. The Whitecaps posted a 1-2-1 record in the month of Sept., which included back-to-back losses to end the month. Vancouver is 1-3-4 in its last eight games; its lone win in that span was a 3-0 road victory over Crystal Palace Baltimore on Sept. 11. Goalkeeper Jay Nolly and the Whitecaps backline allowed just two goals in the month of Sept.

We were nothing less than thrilled about the performance of the 406ci small-block we built for January's "Old School Meets New" showdown. Faced with a formidable 402ci Gen IV opponent, our mondo-cammed motor matched its high-tech opponent pony for pony, churning out 582.9 hp and 532.7 lb-ft of torque. But even as we celebrated our creation's prodigious power output, we began to wonder if we'd left something on the table. Our peak horsepower number happened at 6,300 rpm, at which point the power curve took an abrupt nosedive. "It's going into valve float," said our dyno guru, Westech's Steve Brul. With that, we decided to see if we could get better control of our 406's valves and moderate the post-peak power drop.
Our first step was to call in some professional help, namely Comp Cams engineer Billy Godbold. We shared our dyno-day observations, and as it turns out, valve float, which indicates loss of lifter contact with the camshaft lobe, isn't really an accurate description of what was happening in our 406's valvetrain. The issues are much more complex than that. We don't have room here for a dissertation on valvetrain dynamics, and fortunately, Godbold was able to give us the info we needed in layman's terms. Better yet, he was able to prescribe a solution, and an effective one at that.
Godbold described the phenomenon we experienced as "a very light valve bounce." Unlike valve float, valve bounce indicates that the valve is not staying seated. "The spring mass itself wasn't enough to hold the valve down," Godbold continued. "The spring starts to surge, so the valve control isn't good. When a spring is having problems controlling its own mass, it doesn't have as much ability to close the valve, and doesn't hold it closed. It can even push the valve open."
Substitute the word "resonance" for "surge," and you've got a quick explanation of our problem. All valvesprings resonate at a certain frequency, and they reach this frequency at a given rpm. Godbold calls this the spring's limit speed, but it isn't necessarily tied to high-rpm antics. "When a spring gets close to the limit speed, it resonates," he told us. "Many people think it happens at high rpm, but it actually happens whenever the spring approaches its limit speed." This resonance, according to Godbold, is a function of both a spring's rate and its mass. "As spring rate goes higher, frequency goes up," he told us. "And as mass goes down, frequency goes up."
Although spring limit speed isn't always tied to high rpm, in this case, our spring's limit speed was close to the engine speed at which our 406 produced peak power-thus the spoon-shaped dip at the end of our dyno runs. What we needed to combat the resonance issue was a lighter spring that also has a higher natural frequency. Godbold figured that a bit of Gen III/IV tech was in order, specifically a set of beehive-style valvesprings, first introduced for the Gen III LS6 powerplant.
"The nature of a beehive spring is that it has a progressive rate," Godbold explained. "Each coil has its own resonance frequency. It's not just magic-there's a reason it works. It's hard to make the whole thing resonate." Remember, however, that resonance is also a function of a spring's weight, as well as its spring rate. Higher spring rate usually leads to a physically heavier spring, but using a beehive spring allowed us to maintain the same spring rate while cutting valvespring and retainer weight in half. "All we did was move the limit speed up, and the limit speed was close to peak power," Godbold summed up. When compared to the "gorilla method," which would have mandated a bigger, heavier spring, this is a finesse approach. We are actually able to obtain better control with less seat load, open load, and spring rate by substantially reducing the mass, thereby increasing the natural frequency. Our post-peak dip is gone, and the thing revs to seven grand without a complaint. Sure, power still drops off after the peak, but not as abruptly-up high, our rev-happy 406 is now making 40-some horsepower more than it did. We'll take it.
Quick Notes
The Mission
Control high-rpm valve instability on a 406ci stroker small-block
The Bottom Line
A set of beehive valvesprings eliminated our post-peak power drain.

I posted a thread about a week or so ago whereby my screen would wash out white. as it turned out, the laptop was STILL under warranty and the problem was, the motherboard or mainboard, I don't think there's a difference between the two. The motherboard died on me right in the middle of using a program. I saw a bunch of vertical color lines akin to a bad LSD trip and then the darn thing refused to boot. I "thought" at one point the video processor but no, the techs discovered the motherboard died, they replaced it less then a day and it is on it's way back to me now as I sit here and use my sons PC.
I think that, out of several thousand systems built that, I got simply a faulty motherboard.

Hey Folks,
I'm really sorry about this, but I've tried, over and over again, to save the wiki; but, to no avail. Whatever the hell happened when we got hacked all those months ago trashed the shit out of our wikimedia database. I've tried now, for months, to make this work, but I can't even get MySQL to not crash on the highest debug level, that level where it will take basically anything as a database file and try to read it.
So, the wiki is no more, for now. Maybe one day in the future I'll set up another wiki. Alas, all that's left of the wiki is this sad excuse of a letter.
If you really need to get the information, I recommend visiting archive.org.

Bigfoot has several names. In the southern states, this large, hairy bipedal creature is called the Skunk Ape. In Ohio, believers in Bigfoot claim that the "grassman" roams the oak woodlands of the Buckeye State. In the wild coniferous forests of the west, it goes by the name of Sasquatch and in Asian mountains, a similar furry giant is known as the Yeti. An enigma for sure and one that deserved to be immortalized as one of the more fantastic animal garden statues.
The following are two reasons why it's worth it to buy a garden sculpture of Bigfoot:
- Gentle Giant: Despite Bigfoot's massive size and obvious strength, the scarcity of sightings indicate that it might be the most shy creature in the woods. As opposed to being threatening, an animal yard statue of Bigfoot fills the garden with mystery and enchantment.
- It's unique: While neighbors can claim that their backyard is inhabited by statues of pink flamingoes and garden gnomes, get a Bigfoot sculpture and you can show that your garden hosts one of the most unique and detailed sculptures in town.
Yet another reason for buying a Bigfoot Sculpture today is because you get a 20% discount as part of our Black Friday Weekend sale. This sale ends today, November 25th!

In our last segment, Danger Mouse (DM) practically blew the roof off when it made more than 600hp on pump gas with help from a "little" Weiand blower. That was super-cool and for a short while we couldn't figure out what to do next that could top that. But after our visit to the COMP Cams/Superflow Advanced Engine Technology Conference in Colorado Springs, Colorado (see: "Power of the Spoken Word," page 90), and hearing Lance Ward from Fuel Air Spark Technology (F.A.S.T.) talk about the power and benefits of EFI, we knew what we had to do next.
EFI PotentialAlthough it's still relatively expensive, the benefits of EFI far out-weigh its costs. EFI is easier to start and runs better on the street. Its self-tuning capabilities make it adaptable to any situation. Cold mornings, hot summer days, mountain driving, or all-out hauling, EFI can handle them all and will probably save you a few bucks at the pump in the long run too. Today's EFI systems are very easy to install and if you turn a computer on and plug it in, then you can tune EFI.
As the aftermarket sees the value in EFI and continues to hire and train more computer-savvy tech heads, the average guy on the street will benefit from the true plug-and-play systems being developed. Most of the aftermarket EFI systems from companies like Accel, F.A.S.T., Holley, and others come with ready-made fuel and spark timing tables, also known as "maps", to get any car going once the system is installed. And if you're laptop is plugged in, you can have a buddy tune the car as you drive without ever lifting the hood!
And trust us when we tell you that you do not have to be a computer wiz to tune these things. All it takes is a fair understanding of how an engine burns fuel to make power and you're already about 75% there. Then it's just a matter of learning the operating system's ins and outs, some computer knowledge is helpful here, and you'll be tuning for power. If we can do it, anyone can.
Dyno Testing Part 11 Carbureted PowerSince we're always trying to compare our tests to something relevant, we wanted to compare EFI power to a properly tuned carburetor. As it turned out, the carb made almost as much power as the EFI. And it took us a whole day's worth of tuning to get the EFI past the Demon carb at peak power. But look at the extra low-end torque the EFI made in Test 22 (w/ 30-lb/hr injectors at 50 psi) and you'll see one obvious benefit of EFI.
EFI MagicTuning an EFI motor is a lot more fun than tuning a carbureted one. The reason is simple; you don't have to lift the hood. Once the system is running, you just need to check the ignition advance with a timing light to make sure it matches the spark setting in the ECU and then close the hood and start driving. In our case, we shut the dyno cell door and started pulling.

Because of being fed up with my ancient HTC Hero's poor data peformance, I drove down to my local US Cellular store to see what all they had in the line of Androids.
After looking at some Motorolas and more HTC phones, landed on the Axiom which for me, was quite impressive in form and apperance. I didn't get it but am thinking about getting one maybe next month down the road when my financial picture finally reveals itself. (I am temp laid off and am waiting for decision on when I start my new full time position hopefully next week - long long story not for here).
Does anyone have any experience with this device yet? I have looked online and have basically seen everything point to it being a mini version of the Galaxy S III with the only difference being the screen size down to 4" which is fine for my purposes. We have 4G LTE here in my area and got to see how fast that was which made me green with envy. (should have worn red that day so I could have been Christmasy!) I know it has a lower camera spec (5MegPixel), but don't really care too much about that to be honest, I rarely use my phone camera anyway.
I am mainly interested in battery life, durability of the display glass (can it withstand being shoved in a pocket with keys for up to a day and not show any signs of co-existing with them) as I sometimes have to wear a back brace which prevents me from using a holster that I normally use, NFC performance (IF there is any such thing), etc..
I have had a lot of hard times with the Android platform, but am stuck in the 2.3.7 area so know that has to do with some of it. Am running CM7 on the Hero which helps, but it seems like I am constantly re-installing the OS because of permissions issues and random reboots (I have run the scripts to fix permissions with no luck sometimes). So, will be looking forward to moving into the 4.x series of Android OS.

I am having a problem with getting started. I just downloaded the latest version September 9, 2014, and two days with it I still cannot hear anything! I did the settings when I first opened it, according to the tutorial that tells how. My output is not making it to my headphones or to my speakers, so I cannot hear what anything I do sounds like! I am not having this problem with any other audio software. If I cannot get this one working to my satisfaction, I will be removing it and finding another to replace it. I've asked for help with this at several sites where this application is discussed, and no one seems to know how to fix the problem. Sorry, but for now my rating is not worth giving!
I got tired of my old DAW, so I did a web search and noticed that LMMS is now Windows friendly. Wow! I really dig this program. I'm just learning it but so far, it seems great and is a lot of fun. There are things I'd like to see developed in the future (like enabling a sequence of external VSTi, and external VSTi allowed as FX). But being a total freebie, who am I to complain? Right now my only beef is that "undo" (control z) doesn't seem to be working with Win 7 64. Other than that... a big THANK YOU to the developer!
I love music+lmms
With Win 7 Home Premium and LMMS 1.0.0. I have a fantastic, stable DAW at my disposal with loads of built-in features and the ability so use additional freeware/ shareware or payware plug-ins. Look no further, with LMMS you'll be able to go a very, very long way before you'll need to pay for anything! It's simply great and second to none in the opensource world.
Cakewalk pales in comparison to lmms.

Romney's Economic Plan: Dubya 2.0
I'll be honest: There are a few things about Mitt Romney that I find annoying. One of the biggest has to be that there is probably no sentence he has repeated more often in this campaign than "I know how the economy works," but he never actually explains what he knows that nobody else does, or how that hard-won knowledge translates into a unique set of policy moves that only he could bring about and that would pull America from its economic doldrums.
There are really two sets of questions that absolutely must be asked of Romney in the area of economics, given the rationale he offers for his candidacy. The first is, "What specifically did you learn as a businessman that policymakers haven't known up until now?" As far as I know, he has only been asked this question once, and the result wasn't encouraging. (After repeating over and over that he "understands how the economy works," Romney finally allowed that businesses spend money on energy, so if energy were cheaper, they'd have more money. Brilliant, I know.) The second question that Romney needs to be asked is, "What are you proposing to do, and how is that different than what we've done before?"
The natural way to ask this is the way Brian Williams asked it in an interview with Romney yesterday: "The major planks of your job plan, lower taxes, both corporate and marginal rates, and reduce regulation. Explain how that would be different from what George W. Bush tried to push through?" Republicans might say this is a "gotcha" question, since it brings up George W. Bush, whom today's Republicans like to pretend was not actually president for eight years. But it's a reasonable way to ask, since Bush's presidency was pretty recent, and he did in fact implement the entire Republican economic agenda, with the exception of drastic cuts in the size of government, though that's something Republicans are committed to in rhetoric only. So how did Romney respond?
Well, let me describe—actually, there are five things that I believe are necessary to get this economy going. One, take advantage of our energy resources, particularly natural gas, but also coal, oil, nuclear, renewables. That's number one. A huge opportunity for us, and doing so is gonna bring manufacturing back, because low-cost, plentiful energy is key to manufacturing, in many industries.
Number two, trade. I want tre– to dramatically increase trade and particularly with—with Latin America. Number three, take action to get America on track to have a balanced budget. Now those three things, by the way, are things which we have not been doing over the last few years, which I think are essential to getting this economy going again.
Number four, we've got to show better training and education opportunities for our current re– workers and for coming workers. And then finally what I call restoring economic freedom. That means keep our taxes as low as possible, have regulations modern and up to date, get health care costs down. These things will restore economic freedom.
So my policies are very different than anything you've seen in the past. They're really designed for an America which has some new resources, energy being one of them, trade with Latin America being another, and the need for a balanced budget now more urgent than ever before.
To review: The way Mitt Romney's economic plan differs from what George W. Bush did is that Romney favors exploiting energy resources, free trade, having a good education system, balancing the budget (something every candidate in both parties says they'll do, but only Bill Clinton actually did), tax cuts, and less regulation. In short, Romney's program is exactly the same as what George W. Bush did. Yet Romney says, "My policies are very different than anything you've seen in the past." Right.
It isn't necessary that every presidential candidate come up with a set of policies that are absolutely new and unique. After all, politicians are largely creatures of their parties, and those parties have relatively consistent agendas, so no party nominee is going to offer an agenda that's unlike anything we've seen before. But Romney is presenting a case for his candidacy that is an unusual synthesis of the personal and the policy. Other candidates have centered their candidacies on a personal argument—Bush was a "different kind of Republican" who would deliver us from the bitter partisanship of the 1990s, Obama was the embodiment of hope and change—but Romney's two-fold claim is that the election is all about the practical problem of improving the economy and that because of who he is, but not because of what he wants to do, only he can solve that practical problem. When he's forced to get specific, his solution to the practical problem is the standard Republican agenda.
It's entirely possible that this argument, hollow though it is, could work. Polls seem to indicate that Romney has an advantage on which candidate voters believe would do a better job managing the economy, which is not the same as them thinking all we need to do is cut taxes for the wealthy and remove regulatory constraints on corporations. Indeed, the appropriate follow-up to the question Williams asked is, "George W. Bush did just about everything you're proposing to do. If it didn't work then, why is it going to work now?" But nobody has asked Romney that either, so the most advantageous thing for him to do is to keep repeating "I understand how the economy works" and hope he doesn't have to answer too many questions about what he actually wants to do.

Here's what Waldmen doesn't get...
The failed policies of the past are the same as the present, they are ALL Big Government Policies.
Affordable Housing policy created the housing bubble which Fannie and Freddie inflated until it burst and crashed the economy.
Stimulus was nothing more than $1 trillion in pork transfers, mostly to government workers, crony capitialist (can you say Solyndra) and unions
ObamaCare threatend to crater the economy next year if it isn't repealed (one reason the economy is heading back into recession)
Romney understands that what needs to happen is a 'roll back' on Big Government. Reagan understood this saying, 'government ISN'T the solution, it's the problem'. Clinton accepted it when he got thrashed in the 94 mid-terms saying, 'the era of Big Government is over'.
Unfortunately Bush didn't get it, and Obama has gone beserk with the notion that we owe our livelyhood to BIG GOVERNMENT.
Now, either no firther explaination is needed or none will suffice.

You are 100% correct, rockstar. Bush's main problem was that he did NOT follow Repuiblican policies. Maybe it was because he was so focused on the threat from Al-Qaeda and on taking out Saddam, but he was an absolute trainwreck as far as restraining spending goes. While Obama has admittedly taken the art of deficit spending to new heights, it was Bush who got it started after inheriting a balanced budget from Bill Clinton.
Republicans are supposed to be the fiscally-responsible ones. Bush wasn't. But I think Romney would be quite different. He took office when Massachusetts was running huge budget deficits and when he left office their state budget was in surplus. Let's see if he can do the same thing for the federal budget.

We are faced with one simple fact and one simple proposition.
The fact is government can not continue to increase spending without eventually collapsing the economy, the spending will stop. Prior to FDR total government spending as a percentage of GDP (Gross Domestic Production) was less than 7%. It has now grown to over 40% and is headed towards 50%. The federal government alone has gone from 20% under Bush to 25% under Obama. This is unsustainable, it will stop, the only wuestion is how.
The simple proposition is this...will it stop BECAUSE we had the COURAGE to stop it by insisting Government spend less (meaning we take less through Government) or because we were COWARDS and went bankrupt like Greece demanding our fair shair. Either way, IT WILL STOP.

I wish someone would ask Romney if he plans to cut the federal government by 60% in ten years. My favorite bit of understanding is that Romney will slash government by about 60% in 10 years if he gets his way, with the exception of defense and social security. The CBPP reports: "For the most part, Governor Romney has not outlined cuts in specific programs. But if policymakers exempted Social Security from the cuts, as Romney has suggested, and cut Medicare, Medicaid, and all other entitlement and discretionary programs by the same percentage — to meet Romney's spending cap, defense spending target, and balanced budget requirement — then non-defense programs other than Social Security would have to be cut 29 percent in 2016 and 59 percent in 2022 (see Figure 1). Without the balanced budget requirement, the cuts would be smaller but still massive, reaching 40 percent in 2022." Where is this report? http://www.cbpp.org/cms/index.cfm?fa=view&id=3658 --- I just went to the Tax Policy Center and read their analysis. Here is the bottom line: "Also in the absence of such base broadening, TPC estimates that on a static basis, the Romney plan would lower federal tax liability by about $900 billion in calendar year 2015 compared with current law, roughly a 24 percent cut in total projected revenue. Relative to a current policy baseline, the reduction in liability would be about $480 billion in calendar year 2015." See http://taxpolicycenter.org/taxtopics/romney-plan.cfm --
The logic is lower tax revenue, lower government expenditures. The problem is no one wants popular government programs cut, and Romney does not show how he will "broaden the tax base" or eliminate "tax preferences". But a 60% cut in government over 10 years -- that's leadership, like Ryan's plan. But who will follow?
Sun, 2012-07-29 19:16
"TPC estimates that on a static basis." That's the line in your rant that shows a leftist slant. The world does not operate on a static basis. That's why the CBO can never give correct appraisal on any bill. Romney was correct because he sees the world in normal terms not static, socialist, terms.

I would be glad to go back to the Bush Administrations economic policies that brought the country an average rate of unemployment of 5% for the first seven years of his terms in office. Bush inherited a recession when the dot com bubble burst but he didn't whine about it. The economy crashed after 9-11 and he didn't whine about that or blame Clinton either. He enacted a huge tax reduction for the middle class, cut cap gains taxes and helped the economy grow. No person in their right mind can blame Bush for the world wide collapse of the housing markets. That problem was thirty years in the making and both parties were responsible for the debacle.

Mr. Waldman,
What makes you such an economic expert? The only thing I could find on you is that you are a commentator? Have you ever led a company? held elected office? done anything other than trash others? If so, web searches don't even find it releveant. Get off the typical rant and do something meaningful.

For two years he managed to keep the pain somewhat under control by taking Advil®, aspirin and other antiinflammatory drugs. But, finally, when he saw a doctor in Philadelphia (his home town), he discovered that he had osteoarthritis — one of the oldest and most common types of arthritis, characterized by the breakdown of the joint's cartilage. "They started giving me cortisone injections in my knuckles," he says. "I'd go for two to three months where there wouldn't be any pain at all and then it would flare up again." But the injections themselves were, at times, as painful as the osteoarthritis. "The injections were so painful," J.R. says, "that a couple of times I passed out." J.R. soon discovered that he was starting to have similar symptoms in his right hand, though not as painful.
Fortunately, by now J.R. had met Stephen J. O'Connell, MD, a Board Certified Orthopedic Surgeon at Eisenhower and Director of Hand and Upper Extremity Surgery at Desert Orthopedic Center. Dr. O'Connell suggested to J.R. that he might think about knuckle replacement surgery. "I returned to my home in Philadelphia and thought about it all summer," says J.R. "Finally, I decided to do it when I got back to the desert in October 2003." By then, Dr. O'Connell had been in contact with Robert D. Beckenbaugh, MD, an Orthopedic Surgeon at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, and the inventor of a new artificial knuckle implant made from a new kind of material called pyrolytic carbon (pyrocarbon). Dr. Beckenbaugh had indicated he would like to be in the operating room to watch as Dr. O'Connell performed the operation.
On January 29, 2004, Dr. O'Connell replaced the middle knuckle on J.R.'s ring finger and the middle knuckle on the middle finger of the left hand. He also fused the first knuckle of J.R.'s index finger and fused his left thumb. Finally, he cleaned out the tendon in the palm of J.R.s left hand. "He also put in some wires to stabilize the joint because the first joint in my left thumb had deteriorated so badly," J.R. says.
"Before Dr. Connell operated," J.R. explains, "he put a golf club in my hand and had me show him how I wanted to hold the club. They did an x-ray with the club in my hand. So he knew how to position my hand so I could hold onto the golf club."
After the four-hour operation J.R. was in rehab for about 14 or 15 weeks. And the results? "Everything is phenomenal," says J.R. "I can't believe it. My hand is a little stiff, particularly in the morning. But I can control the golf club and I have no pain in my hand! It's unbelievable."
"…They did an x-ray with the club in my hand." — J.R. Delich
Before After
J.R. gives a lot of credit for his recovery to his wife Carol. "Throughout this long, difficult process," he says, "my wife has stood behind me 100 percent," he says. "She has been a tremendous support and inspiration. She's the best," he adds with a warm smile.
Following the surgical procedure, during his rehabilitation period, J.R. played golf one-handed for about 15 weeks — every day for the first 10 weeks and then twice a week and finally, by May, once every two weeks. "It is good exercise; it keeps the right hand strong, and coordination and watching the golf ball helps a lot."
During the first two days he was back on the golf course in May 2004, he shot 67 and 66. "Even though it was just local, it made me excited," he says. He also played in one competition in May and shot 74, "which I felt very good about," he says modestly.
After the operation Dr. Beckenbaugh spoke with J.R., praising the operation and the skill of Dr. O'Connell. As J.R. recalls, "Dr. Beckenbaugh told me that he had observed a lot of surgeons in his life and Dr. O'Connell was one of the finest he had ever seen — very diligent and extremely good."
Adding his own thoughts, J.R. says about Dr. O'Connell, "He's not only a good doctor but a great human being."

Trustee Wayne Jordan, -who also-had—a—prepared-statement, did not spedficaUy deal with that line in the budget Jordan stated that he did not feel that the proposed budget was the "bottom line, the absolute minimum or best budget," although bs acknowledged that the B^ird had worlied long and bard on it Jordan stressed that decreases this year could only be minimal. "There must tie a dunge in the way the Freeport YiOage budget is decided, disclosed to the puWic and implemented," hs said.

Mayor White's answer was that this had been discussed In previous sessions, and liad been done twice before in the VUlage's history, and that it was a matter constantly reviewed to-see if it Would save " "' money.

'Latier in the evening, James •Brown, a Freeport resident of . Lexington Avenue, told the Board he would not lUte to see the Stadium dosed. He pointed to its beneflt for Freeport as an attraction and its possible use for semi-pro football or basebaU games, Jordan also suggested a io% - cut in the.Board's own salaries •-(the Trustees each: draw $3500 annuaUy; the Mayor, t7,000), "to let everyone know where we are in terms of salary increases for next year's budget" White called that request the "lowest form of political rhetoric" and later on in the evening Trustee Dorothy • Storm explained that, unlike the Jordan famfly, hers was a pne-salaiy famfly and herTiusband bad pointed out that with the - hours spent-and tlie-expenses-of - the position, he soon might not be nhleto afford aTrusfee as a \vife. - In telling why he could not approve the. proposed budget, JoTian also cited the fact that "some monies spent in this budget are not property disclosed to tJie taxpaying public," .He specified the commission monies paid to various insurance lirokers and the contract with the Freeport Fire Department. Although- stating- that .the Freeport volanteers are a "supwior team", Jordan later voted against the signing of this coctract claiming that whfle he Icew what the contract contained, the public did not and that the money spent was not audited by the Board of Trustees.

About the ManufacturerFounded by Léo T. Julien in 1946, Julien Inc. began by selling kitchen accessories to restaurants. Noting their need for custom equipment, Léo T. Julien opened a plant and ran it until his death in 1973. In 1978, the management team added a new plant to keep up with the company's rapid growth. In 1986, Julien Inc. successfully developed the subcontracting market. Subsequent years were marked by design and management computerization and production automation. In 1995, current president Gilles St-Pierre and six other company executives acquired Julien Inc.. The new management focused on developing its sector and its North American and international markets. Integrating noble materials such as wood, marble, granite, and slate into sheet metal products is now a reality and a winning strategy not only for Julien Inc., but also for its commercial and industrial customers.
