CHIPLEY — Volunteers with the Lyndon LaRouche Political Action Committee were in Chipley on Monday calling for the impeachment of President Barack Obama, the passage HR 129, and selling memberships to the PAC.
Frank Mathis, a LaRouche PAC representative from New Jersey, said they were touring the Panhandle. "This is where (U.S. Representatives) Jeff Miller and Steve Southerland are," Mathis said. "In 2011, Miller said he would not support restoring the Glass-Steagall Act. We want to know what he thinks now."
Mathis said the Glass-Steagall Act was enacted in the 30s and protected banks and bank customers, but it was overturned in 1999 by President Bill Clinton and a Republican Congress.
The group's platform supports reinstating the Glass-Steagall Act, which limited commercial banks' investment activities. HR 129, if approved, will bring that back and protect Americans, Mathis said.
"That paved the way for the meltdown in 2007," Mathis said.
"Lyndon LaRouche and LaRouche PAC are what stand between you and an otherwise inevitable collapse of civilization,"the PAC's website states.
LaRouche was a presidential candidate eight times between 1976 to 2004, running once for his own U.S. Labor Party and campaigning seven times for the Democratic Party nomination, according to Wikipedia. He was sentenced to 15 years' imprisonment in 1988 for conspiracy to commit mail fraud and tax code violations, and was released in 1994 on parole.
LaRouche was also controversial for his alleged connections with the Ku Klux Klan.
Volunteers have stationing themselves in front of post offices and state Department of Motor Vehicle offices to rally support to impeach President Barack Obama and pass HR 129.
Monday in Chipley, the PAC was taking money from new members. "We need to spread out the organization's support," Mathis said. "I'm from New Jersey, and there isn't much support or awareness of what we do. We're trying to get the message out."
The organization is very polarizing, acknowledged Angela Vullo, a LaRouche PAC representative in Washington, D.C.
"We're attacking Obama and the controllers of Obama out of London," Vullo said in a telephone interview.
Signs with Obama sporting a Hitler mustache in particular have been at almost every local station. Obama is an advocate of Great Britain and Wall Street, and not the American people, Vullo said.
"What we're expecting under Obama and the British Empire is (for them) to impose a world dictatorship for depopulation," she said.
Obama is creating a nation whose people can't survive by rescuing insolvent banks at the people's expense, Vullo said.
"The people that support us suspect that Obama and the government are not on their side," Vullo said. "The people who don't support us are in denial."
"Glass-Steagall is a bill that will keep the bankrupt banks out of the pockets of the people,"she said.
The PAC's other platforms include establishing a credit system and building the North American Water & Power Alliance (NAWAPA), a continental water management system.
"Most people get involved in single issues," Vullo said. "You have to fight on principle. You have to defend the Constitution of the U.S. against the empire."

You know, one of the reasons I got rid of my TV set was because I was getting fed up with the way so many programmes were devised to make people look stupid. All these "talent" shows and "reality" shows are basically sneering at the antics of people who think that being on TV will somehow make them famous, when what they generally end up looking, is stupid.
There is far too much getting laughs at other people's expense and pushing things as far as possible. I don't like that sort of show and, at least when I last watched TV regularly, there seemed to be far too much of it.
This whole thing is another case of entertainment by making people look stupid. Until this death those DJs were being applauded for what they did. People thought it was a huge joke. And the butt of that joke was the staff at the hospital. Try putting yourself in that situation and ask yourself how easily you could shrug off millions of people thinking you were stupid. Or that your job may be under threat because of that.
I find it very easy to understand how this might have been a major contribution to the death of this nurse. It may possibly have been the final straw in a series of events. Everybody has their breaking point.
If someone is happy to take the applause when a stunt like this works, they should be prepared to take the consequences when it goes horribly wrong. If nothing else comes out of this, at least it may make idiotic pranksters think twice before exploiting another people for laughs.

Unit LNE: LEGO Copies Life
With the NXT I had a much better start: higher-torque motors with more control, as well as a studless system that encouraged connections that would not come apart easily. After a couple days, I came up with Unit LNE (LEGO NXT Explorer) of the Dinochrome Brigade (10 pts if you catch the reference ;-). Based on the PackBot design, it can climb a steep slope (30° or more), scale mountains of dirty laundry (or RCXs, or minifigs), and climb up steps taller than the robot itself. It can also flip itself back upright if it finds itself upside down (an accelerometer from HiTechnic is very handy in this regard). The first hurdle was getting one motor to drive both the belly treads and the flipper arm tread on one side, while still allowing the "shoulder" to freely rotate 360°+. The harder part was actually making the structure strong enough to take the resulting loads and torques without twisting apart.
Sometimes looking at the world around you can give you some very challenging ideas for a robot. LEGO is "just a toy", but as an engineering tool it can be used to model some very impressive creations... but of course, I probably don't need to tell readers of this blog that :-).
More images can be found in my Brickshelf folder as well.

I love the videos! That Shuttle set must be pretty sturdy not to show any strain when a robot climbs up it:) And the fact that it can flip itself over if it finds itself upside down....wow
Out of curiosity, was some of it autonomous and some R/C? Or was it wholly one or the other?

Thanks for the "genius" commnent - I'm pretty pleased with getting it all to work in as "small" a package as I did (but trust me, it will probably get better... just give me time). The real genius behind the design is the folks who originated the PackBot chassis, in my opinion. I remember my jaw just dropping when what starts out looking like a rectangular slab of metal is thrown over a wall, flips over, and then goes and "runs" up several flights of stairs.
The model in the videos is under BT remote control (my original remote, actually, works great), as I needed to test the mechanical solutions before mounting sensors and spending a lot of programming time. But with the HiTechnic accelerometer, it can detect when it's upside down (it then enters autonomous mode to right itself, before returning control to the user) or what sort of angle it's trying to climb. Honestly, this was one of the uses for the accelerometer I was looking at very early on... but most platforms can produce angles steep enough for it to matter. This one can.

After seeing the video I'd recommend a roll bar assembly for you mini fig :)

Building instructions would be great, but I'll have to think carefully about the assemble order. It went together like one of those three dimensional puzzles, and even figuring out how to get some sections apart for me is difficult. I've got to think carefully about how to document it so that others can understand the plans. But yes, I'll try to move that way.
A roll bar for the minifig would be good, but there are safer places to put him (right in front) that I'm already working on. Besides, it was fun rolling the whole thing over him :-).

As to more pictures, yes, I'll try to get some soon... it's just hard because I keep redesigning it. With regards to YT making money off me, well... admitedly they are giving my free webhosting with no promises of me making any money for them, so I'll call it even. When LNE starts fighting with Lonelygirl for top honors, I'll start demanding payment in advance :-). Yes, I need a soundtrack (and better video... but who wants to edit video when they could be building). I should see my son giggling as I try to drive it over his legs (it does tickle).

I really like the new video (it's up). The stairs are good (a little...deep) and the packaging peanuts are so funny:) Your pilot is probably thanking you for sticking him elsewhere...but now the ultrasonic sensor and the NXT brick are taking the brunt of a fall... is that safe for the electronics? I'd consider building a roll bar.
Very nice soundtrack, I think the video is well edited.

Thanks for any help finding longer (?) ones.

Together with what is now referred to as the Book(s) of Kings, the translators who created the Greek Septuagint divided the text into four books, which they named the Books of the Kingdoms. In the Latin Vulgate version, these then became the Books of the Kings, thus 1 and 2 Samuel were referred to as 1 and 2 Kings, with 3 and 4 Kings being what are called 1 and 2 Kings by the King James Bible and its successors.
A conclusion of sorts appears at 1 Kings 1–2, concerning Solomon enacting a final revenge on those who did what David perceived as wrongdoing, and having a similar narrative style. While the subject matter in the Book(s) of Samuel is also covered by the narrative in Chronicles, it is noticeable that the section (2 Sam. 11:2–12:29) containing an account of the matter of Bathsheba is omitted in the corresponding passage in 1 Chr. 20.
Hannah is introduced as childless, but she makes a vow to YHWH stating that if she has a son, he will be dedicated to Yahweh as a permanent Nazirite. Eli blesses her, and a child named Samuel is soon born.
At the same time, Eli's two sons, Hophni and Phinehas, are priests at Shiloh who abuse their position. A "man of God" comes to Eli and tells him that due his tolerance of their behavior, YHWH has revoked his promise of perpetual priesthood for Eli's family, and that Eli's sons will later die on the same day. Samuel confirms that there is no way for them to avoid this fate. A while later, following a battle between the Israelites and the Philistines, it is reported to Eli that his sons are dead and that the Philistines have captured the Ark of the Covenant. Upon hearing the latter, Eli falls backward off his seat, breaks his neck and dies. Phinehas's wife, hearing that Eli had died and that the Ark of the Covenant was captured, is overcome with birth pains. Giving birth to a son, she names him Ichabod (without glory), and dies shortly thereafter.
The Philistines take the Ark of the Covenant to their temple of the god Dagon. The next morning, the Dagon statue is found prostrate before the Ark, so they adjust the statue; but the morning after, it is found broken into pieces. The town surrounding the Ark falls victim to a plague, so the Philistines resign themselves to get rid of the Ark, first sending it on to Gath, then to Ekron, both of which fall victim to the same plague. At the advice of fortune tellers, the Philistines put the Ark and additional offerings on a cow-pulled cart, sending it off without a driver. The cart reaches Beth-shemesh, and the locals celebrate, but then mourn because some of their men are struck dead by YHWH for looking into the Ark of the Covenant. So they ask the people of Kiriath-jearim to collect the ark, which they do, and it is taken into the house of Abinadab.
Later, the Philistines attack the Israelites gathered at Mizpah. Samuel appeals to Yahweh, and so the Philistines are decisively beaten. As a result, Samuel sets up a memorial stone between Mizpah and Shen, naming it Ebenezer. Israel reclaims the territory spanning Ekron to Gath, and makes peace with the Amorites.
Nahash, an Ammonite, lays siege to Jabesh-Gilead, so its people request a treaty, but Nahash is arrogant and requires that each person must have their right eye gouged out. The people request that Nahash let them send out messengers in search of a savior, and Nahash agrees, unaware that Israel has a king and believing that the tribes are still separated. After hearing of the siege, Saul orders the people of Israel to join him in an attack on Nahash and threatens them by sending out a piece of a cow to each of the 12 tribes, stating that if they do not comply, he will do the same to their cattle. Saul consequently gathers an army and attacks Nahash, obliterating his army. The people take this as evidence of Saul's ability to lead, and so they are told by Samuel to appoint him king, which they do.
Samuel gives a speech reminding the Israelites not to fall into heathenism like their previous generations have done. The Hebrews/Jonathan (depending on the text—Masoretic has Jonathan, Septuagint has Hebrews) overcome the Philistines in Gibeah. Saul sounds the trumpet to tell all Israel that he (Saul) has overcome the Philistines there. The Philistines assemble for battle, frightening the Israelites, but in accordance with Samuel's instructions, Saul waits seven days for Samuel to arrive, before giving up his wait and making a sacrifice. Samuel castigates Saul for not waiting, telling him that as a result his kingdom will not last. Saul, successful and brave, defeats Amalek. Samuel orders Saul to exterminate Amalek, but although Saul subsequently slaughters the Amalekites, he does not slaughter the animals, and he captures King Agag alive. Saul also erects a trophy at Carmel in his own honour. Samuel berates him for not carrying out the mass extermination completely, so Saul repents and begs Samuel to go with him. Samuel refuses and leaves, but Saul grabs at him, tearing part of Samuel's mantle, for which Samuel says that part of Saul's kingdom will be torn off and given to another. Samuel kills Agag himself, by hacking him into pieces (wa-yeshassef).
While Saul and his son occupy Geba, the Philistines raid the nearby land. Previously, the Philistines had ensured that there were no smiths in the land, causing the people of Israel to be devoid of weaponry, except for Saul and Jonathan. Jonathan secretly heads to the Philistine outpost at Michmash with his armour bearer, first crossing a ravine, and they slaughter large numbers of Philistines who panic and scatter. Saul notices and eventually sends his army to help. The Hebrews were previously on the Philistine side (some translations add the words some of, making this refer only to a sub group of Hebrews) but decide to join the forces of Israel. In a moment of foolishness, Saul curses anyone that eats anything before the evening, but Jonathan does not notice and consumes some honey he finds. This rapidly leads to others following suit and ignoring Saul's curse. Saul builds an altar, insisting that it be used to sacrifice before the food is eaten, and he condemns to death whoever is at fault for violating his curse. Saul uses Urim and Thummim to find out it was Jonathan, so reluctantly condemns him, but the army threatens to revolt if Saul kills him, so he does not.
David flees to Ahimelech, priest of Nob, who only has holy bread. Since David abstains from the company of women on such journeys, Ahimelech allows David to take the bread and Goliath's sword which Ahimelech had been keeping. David then flees. Saul's chief henchman, Doeg, witnessed Ahimelech assisting David, so Saul has Doeg kill him and all the people in Nob. However, Ahimelech's son Abiathar escapes to tell David.
David hides in the caves near Engedi, and Saul hears of this and pursues him. Saul enters a cave to relieve himself, coincidentally the cave in which David is hiding, and David sneaks up on him and cuts off the end of his mantle (Saul had also done this to Samuel). Because Saul has been anointed, David regrets this and forbids his men from harming Saul, and then he steps out of the cave to show himself. David convinces Saul that he is not a threat, and the two reconcile. The two depart from one another, and Samuel dies. Men from Ziph tell Saul that David is hiding at Hachilah, so Saul goes to search for him. David and Abishai sneak into Saul's camp and steal Saul's spear. They then go a long way away and shout back what they have just done and persuade Saul that David is not a threat; the two consequently are reconciled.
David tries to get hospitality from a man at Ma'on, named Nabal, who owns property in Carmel, but Nabal is miserly and refuses. Angered, David prepares to attack Nabal and kill those surrounding him. Nabal's clever and pretty wife, Abigail, sends David provisions, causing David to relent. She tells Nabal once he has sobered up, and Nabal is soon after struck dead by Yahweh. David thus proposes marriage to Abigail, who accepts. David also marries Ahinoam of Jezreel, though meanwhile Michal, his original wife, is transferred by Saul to another man, Palti.
David decides that it is better to be on the safe side and so chooses to reside amongst the Philistines, staying with the King Achish of Gath. Previously David had briefly fled to Achish having left Ahimelech, where he feigned insanity to avoid attracting attention, but this time he lets Achish realise that he is an enemy of Saul. However, David continues to make raids against the surrounding population, slaughtering everyone he meets so that none will tell Achish what he has done. When he brings back spoils, he tells the king of Gath that he has raided against some foreign group or the Israelites or Judah. Achish trusts him implicitly and so requests that David join him in an attack on Jezreel. The Philistines encamp against the Israelites but are curious why the Hebrews (some translations have "some of the Hebrews") are amongst the Philistines. Uneasy about David's presence, they tell Achish to send him away, and so Achish reluctantly does so.
Saul sees the Philistines encamping at Shunem and is disheartened. Saul tries to consult God for advice but receives no reply, and since he has banned necromancy and prophecy in accordance with the mitzvah, he is forced to disguise himself and go to the Witch of Endor. He asks her to bring up Samuel from the dead, which she does, and Samuel admonishes Saul for acting this way and tells him that owing to Saul's past failure to commit complete genocide regarding Amalek, Saul is already condemned. Saul becomes deeply shaken and refuses to eat, but he is eventually persuaded.
David attacks the Philistines, taking their methegammah (literally bridle of the cubit though many translations render this as chief cities). David also defeats Moab and executes a proportion (either ⅓ or ⅔) of their entire population, making Moab a vassal. David then defeats Hadadezer, and though the Aramaeans come to Hadadezer's aid, David slaughters them, making the Aramaeans vassals. King Toi of Hamath, Hadadezer's enemy, congratulates David and adds to his spoils of precious metals. On his return (from an unspecified location), David becomes famous for slaughtering 18,000 Edomites, whereupon Edom becomes a vassal state.
A list of officers in David's court is given on two occasions. The list includes the head of the army, chancellor (Jehoshaphat), master of the slaves, and commander of foreign troops, as well as the two priests, Zadok and Abiathar.
The king of the Ammonites dies and is succeeded by Hanun. Reflecting the prior king's kindness to David, David sends messengers to Hanun to give his condolences. However, they are interpreted by Hanun as spies, so he has the base of their beards cut off and the base of their garments below their buttocks, giving them a Babylonian appearance. When they return, David tells them to wait in Jericho until their beards grow. The Ammonites then prepare for war and hire a mercenary army from Aram, Tob, and Maacah, but it does not reach the Ammonites before David's army are too close. Joab splits David's army into two groups, one to attack the Aramaeans, and one to attack the Ammonites. The Aramaeans flee before David's army, and so the Ammonites withdraw. Hadadezer hires Aramaeans that live beyond the Euphrates, and they attack the Israelites at Helam. Shobach, Hadadezer's general, is defeated and killed, and so Hadadezer's vassal states decide to become David's vassals instead.
Absalom builds up a gradual following, eventually having enough supporters that he plans a coup against David. An informant tells David, who tells his supporters to flee Jerusalem to the Mount of Olives. At the Mount of Olives, David tells his foreign mercenaries to go back to Jerusalem since they owe no allegiance, but they insist on going with David. David also sends back Zadok and Abiathar, the priests, and his friend, Hushai, to act as an informant. A man, Shimei, throws stones at David and curses him, so Abishai asks David to kill Shimei, but David will not let him, claiming that Yahweh has made Shimei do this. On the advice of Ahithophel, Absalom has relations with David's concubines on his roof, so that the whole nation can see his contempt for David. After receiving counsel from both Ahithophel and Hushai, Absalom chooses Hushai's plan to send all Israel to attack David over Ahithophel's, so Ahithophel commits suicide in shame. Hushai sends word to David of the plan via spies hidden in a cistern at En-rogel. Absalom sends his army across the Jordan, and David prepares his own troops, asking that Absalom be treated gently. A huge battle erupts between the armies in the forests near Mahanaim, but while riding on his mule, Absalom gets caught in a tree by his hair and is stuck hanging there. Although the first people from David's side to discover Absalom like this refuse to harm him, owing to David's request, Joab has no such qualms and kills Absalom. David becomes extremely upset but pulls himself together and returns victorious to Jerusalem, accompanied by Judah.
Jonathan had a son named Meribbaal, who was 5 when Jonathan and Saul were killed. When she heard the news of this, Meribaal's nurse took him and fled, but he fell and became crippled. In memory of Jonathan, David shows Meribbaal kindness, gives him Saul's lands, and lets him dine at David's table. He also tells Ziba, a servant of Saul, that Ziba and his family must serve Meribbaal. During Absalom's revolt, Meribbaal remained in Jerusalem; Ziba told David that this was because Meribbaal hoped that the people of Israel would restore him to his father's throne. Meribbaal does not wash his feet or his clothes or trim his moustache until David returns to the throne in Jerusalem. On meeting David, Meribbaal tells him that Ziba was lying about his motive for remaining and reminds David that Meribbaal is lame. David does not care and orders Meribbaal to split his property with Ziba.
The people of Israel feel slighted that those of Judah were preferred by David to accompany him back to the throne, so a war of words breaks out between them. A man named Sheba sounds a horn rallying the people of Israel to him. David asks Amasa to summon the people of Judah to him and go after Sheba. At the great stone in Gibeon, Amasa meets Joab and them, and while asking how he is, Joab stabs Amasa to death and drags the body to the side of the road. Joab leads the amassed army of Judah against Sheba who has amassed his own army of Israel at Abel Beth-maachah. Joab lays siege to the town, but a wise woman tells Joab of an ancient expression and that Joab is effectively trying to destroy Yahweh's inheritance. Joab tells her they are only after Sheba, so she gets the townspeople to cut off Sheba's head and throw it over the wall to Joab. Joab then returns to Jerusalem, and the rebellion ends.
A famine arises which David blames on Saul for having put many of the Gibeonites to death. David asks the Gibeonites what he should do as atonement, and they ask to dismember seven men from among Saul's descendants on Yahweh's mountain. David gives seven of Sauls descendants to them, and they are dismembered. Rizpah, the mother of two of them, uses a sackcloth to protect the remains from scavengers, and so David collects the bones of Saul, Jonathon, and those of the seven, and buries them at the tomb of Kish. The famine consequently ends.
There are four battles against the Philistines, in each one a Rephaim being killed. Goliath (specified as the "brother of Goliath" in 1 Chronicles 20:5) is one of these and is killed by Elhanan.
Several warriors of David are listed, with a gloss covering some of their deeds. A significance is attached to the Thirty and the Three, all the warriors being in at least one of these groups, with the Three being the more significant. Despite the name of the group, 37 people are listed, and it is made explicit that there are 37.
Yahweh becomes angry with the people, and Satan tempts David to order a census (this story is also told in 1 Chronicles 21:1ff,). The census makes Yahweh angry (as it was motivated either by pride in the size of his empire and reliance for his security on the number of men he could muster) so Gad the prophet tells David that Yahweh has given David three options of punishment . David chooses the pestilence option, and so an angel duly goes out and starts killing people. When the angel approaches Jerusalem, Yahweh commands the angel to stop. David buys the land where the angel halted from its owner, Araunah, and builds an altar upon it.
This theory is not supported by some modern scholars, who consider that the text is clearly not the work of men contemporary with the events chronicled. Even the Book of Chronicles explicitly refers to multiple source texts for the information, naming several. Roughly in the order they are believed to have been created historically, the sources that modern scholarship considers to have been interlaced to construct 1 & 2 Samuel are:
The relationship between these sources is uncertain, though it is generally agreed that many of the various shorter sources were embedded into the larger ones before these were in turn redacted together. Though some scholars disagree, many academics have proposed that several of the sources are continuations of others, such as the Jerusalem source, and royal source being in some way continuous with one another, and the prophetic source and sanctuaries source being likewise continuous with each other. Some, most recently Richard Elliott Friedman, have proposed that the sources were originally parts of the same texts as the Elohist, Jahwist, and possibly Priestly, sources of the Torah, with the court history of David being considered part of the Yahwist text. What is considered likely is that the Deuteronomist is the one which redacted together these sources into the Books of Samuel.
Within these, there are sometimes what appear to be very minor redactions. For example, 1 Samuel 1:20 explains that Samuel is so called because his mother had asked Yahweh for him; however Samuel means name of God, while Saul means asked; this has suggested to many biblical critics that the narrative originally concerned Saul at this point, a later editor substituting Samuel's name. There are also several points in the Masoretic Text that appear more obviously corrupted in comparison to the Septuagint version.
Gilead and Jezreel are listed as tribes of Israel, rather than being treated strictly as locations. In accordance with evidence of this kind elsewhere, all attributed by scholars to the earliest sources, such as in the Song of Deborah, scholars have concluded that the tribal system known as the tribes of Israel evolved over a period of time:
Gilead, Jezreel and Joseph were originally three tribes in the confederation. Jezreel later split into Zebulun and Issachar. Gilead later split into Machir, Gad, and Reuben. Machir later merged with part of Joseph to form Manasseh, while the other part split off to become Ephraim.

Why I Teach
When I teach, I use the strategy of aiming slightly above the heads of my students, so they have to challenge themselves as they learn. This method also invites them to stretch beyond their present level of understanding.
By word and example, the exceptional teachers of my life provided living proof that teaching was important. They taught me how to reach for serious understanding — and I hope that through my courses I'm able to show my students what is possible in the world of knowledge and learning.

The Maximum Overdrive concept started at the winter '04 NCRS meet at OldTown in Kissimmee, Florida. Jerry Pitt, during a previous conversationconcerning improvements for the early Corvettes, mentioned the Keislerfive-speed overdrive-equipped Corvette. He had driven the car and feltthe OD transmission was a major improvement over the OE Munciefour-speed.
We heard Keisler was modifying the Tremec transmission for installationinto early Corvettes, and it sounded like a smart move. Tremec suppliesthe transmission for the C5. Shifting is easy and has proven reliablewith high-torque applications. We wanted to drive the car to feel thetransmission and hear the change in noise level from the reduced rpm.
We met Shafi Keisler at the Old Town show and, after a short discussion,were handed the keys to the '65. The road test proved the Tremec was theright choice. It shifted smoothly with positive feel. Highway cruise rpmwas 2,200 at 70 mph and the sound level from the small-blockside-pipe-equipped Corvette was certainly livable.
After the road test, we discussed a possible engine change to complementthe OD transmission. Shafi wanted to bring his '65 Corvette coupe intothe 21st century. We discussed possibilities and other enhancements thatwould be necessary. We wanted good fuel mileage and power with hightorque to eliminate excessive shifting and lugging.
We compiled a list of pieces that would work well together along withpossible options. We met Shafi at the Knoxville Corvette Expo; he likedour plan and thought it would be a good idea to have the new enginefeeding on cold, cowl-inducted air.
We decided on a serpentine-belt accessory drive system with Vintage A/Cfor cockpit cooling. The engine would be the 383ZZ425 unit (383 ci, 425hp) from GM Performance Parts. We also had a lengthy punch list ofunderhood and interior items that required attention. After a call to asome friends at GM and a few conference calls with Shafi, we decided touse the GM 350 Ram Jet electronic-fuel-injection Performance Parts crateengine. Even though the horsepower numbers were lower than the ZZ425engine, the torque number was 400 lb-ft at 3,500 rpm, which would beenjoyable shifting through the gears.
The 350 Ram Jet achieves high torque numbers with the help of the largeintake plenum feeding Vortec cylinder heads and a new MEFI IV enginecontroller (computer) handling fuel and spark delivery.
The MEFI IV engine controller uses a heated oxygen sensor for quickclosed-loop fuel control. All the engine sensors are reliable GM pieceswith weatherproof sealing. The MEFI IV also uses a knock sensor forengine- detonation protection. The controller is small, compact, and athome in the engine compartment.
The GM 350 Ram Jet was the best choice for other reasons. It's acomplete package, including wiring harness and computer, requiring onlyfour wires to connect to the existing mid-year harness. We could use theoriginal ignition shielding and all hardware. Plus, the 350ci Ram Jetwould be easier to cool considering the limited radiator area and addedheat load from the A/C system. Best of all, the engine would look likethe sought-after early Ram Jet mechanical fuelie engine.
The Ram Jet 350 would fit in the early Corvette, but the stocksmall-block hood would require minor surgery to the inner X-frame toclear the throttle body without any external modifications. The stockhood would also allow use of the air filter that came with thePerformance Parts engine.

Aug 8, 2002
(Bellwood, Ill. - August 8, 2002) The Sharpie brand, the worlds most popular family of permanent markers and title sponsor of the Sharpie 500, today unveiled a special paint scheme for Kurt Busch's No. 97 Ford, defending Bristol Motor Speedway (BMS) champion. The special one-time look will be featured at the Sharpie 500 on Saturday, August 24 under the lights. Busch is betting on another Sharpie paint job to help him take the checkered flag once again at Bristol. Busch won the Food City 500 in March at BMS, his first Winston Cup career victory, driving a special paint scheme that officially kicked off the Sharpie "You Could Win A $1,000,000" program and race to the Sharpie 500. "Returning to Bristol and the Sharpie 500 feels a lot like going back home," said Busch. "We won in Bristol in March with the 'Sharpie Million Dollar' car, and I hope this new look gives us a little luck to do it all over again." The design features a red Sharpie permanent marker, which is one of the most popular of the more than 12 colors made by Sharpie. Sharpie chose to feature red because the color means speed.
The Sharpie 500 will not only have a car carrying its name, but also play host to what could be a million dollar giveaway. Sharpie, in its second year of title sponsorship of the Bristol Night Race, will be bringing 10 individuals from its national sweepstakes that ends August 13 to BMS on August 24 for a chance at what could be $1 million. On Saturday night before the Sharpie 500, one of the 10 semifinalists will randomly draw a qualified driver from the field of 43. If that driver wins, the lucky finalist pockets $1 million; $100,000 for 2nd through 5th place; $50,000 for 6th through 10th place; and $10,000 for any finish outside of the top 10. "We're thrilled to be back at the Sharpie 500 as Kurt Busch attempts a repeat of his win early this year," said Jeff Werner, vice president of marketing at Sanford North America, makers of Sharpie. "The Sharpie 500 will be 'racin' the way it ought'a be' and possibly where someone can walk away with $1 million. It will be a weekend to remember." For more details, visit www.sharpie500.com.

When the '97 Corvettes burst upon the scene, few could find fault withthe newest offering from Chevrolet. In fact, the improved handling,styling, and performance were so overwhelming that it took a careful eyeto find where additional aftermarket components would make a difference.That is, except for one area: the exhaust system, which suffered from apoor exhaust note and restrictive, power-robbing plumbing.
Bassani, a performance exhaust product leader in both the automotive andmotorcycle arenas, has developed a system for '97 to '04 Corvettesequipped with LS1 and LS6 engines. Designed at its facility in Anaheim,California, recent independent testing by Roger Vinci of VinciHi-Performance, using a stock LS1-engined '02 Corvette featuring allstock components (automatic transmission and factory 3.15:1 reargearing) netted an amazing 30hp increase and 35 lb-ft of torque over thestock baseline numbers. In dragstrip testing, the Bassani-equippedCorvette improved overall quarter-mile e.t.'s from 13.83 and 101.45 mphto 13.33 and 104.50 mph, proving the power gains from the system areindeed very real. Best of all, at the time of this writing, Bassani haddecided to file for a California Air Resources Board Executive Ordermaking the system 50-state legal for '97-'99 LS1 and LS6 engines.
Subsequent testing by Superior Automotive with a manualtransmission-equipped car measured 342 hp on the dyno using the "421"headers, Aft-Cat, stock converters, and K&N air-filter kit.
The Bassani Xhaust system features either 13/4-inch or big-tube17/8-inch primary header tubing, making the latter perfect for big-inchengines like the 427ci, which is becoming popular with C5 Corvetteenthusiasts. The headers themselves are made from mild steel with aceramic coating. The multi-piece header system makes home installationnot only possible, but quite easy for the novice. Using the factorycatalytic converters, the system mounts the stock oxygen sensors in thefactory locations, making the system compatible with engine computeroperation. The exhaust system, from the catalytic converters back to thetailpipes, is made from stainless steel for long life and a great finallook. The Bassani Xhaust system includes all of the proper hangerattachment components and is a well-engineered system for the C5Corvette. The twin-outlet tailpipe system is unique, a signature Bassaniexhaust design.
The Bassani Xhaust system delivers tremendous real-world, streetablehorsepower. An excellent addition for the C5 enthusiast looking forenhanced performance and improved performance sound, the Bassani Xhaustsystem is competitively priced for the market.
Baseline vs. Bassani
Bassani Xhaust turned to an independent source, Vinci Hi-Performance inOrlando, Florida, for testing their system. Joe and Roger Vinciinstalled the system and conducted baseline and modified testing of theBassani 13/4-inch tri-Y headers, Bassani Metalicat System fitted withthe Bassani Z06 center-mount muffler on an '03 automatic-transmissionCorvette. No other modifications or tuning were conducted on thevehicle, which was in desperate need of an air-cleaner change as debriswas found in the silencer after the testing was conducted. After asimple air-cleaner replacement, 6 hp was found on average, which is notreflected on the dyno chart below.
All results are corrected to 29.92 in/Hg, with the vehicle tested inSecond gear.

In preparation for a summer 2014 test, NASA partner Space Exploration Technologies (SpaceX) recently laid out its plan to demonstrate the Dragon spacecraft's ability to carry astronauts to safety in the event of an in-flight emergency.
This review of the in-flight abort test plan provided an assessment of the Dragon's SuperDraco engines, the software that would issue the abort command, and the interface between the Dragon spacecraft and the Falcon 9 rocket on which the spacecraft will be launched.
"It's critical to have a launch abort system in which NASA and SpaceX can have confidence," said Phil McAlister, director of Commercial Spaceflight Development at NASA Headquarters in Washington. "When you put humans aboard, safety and reliability are paramount and this review and the upcoming tests will help prove their space transportation system is on the right track."
Experts from NASA and the Federal Aviation Administration attended the review of the in-flight abort test plan Sept. 17 at SpaceX headquarters in Hawthorne, Calif. Attendees also had the opportunity to view the Dragon test spacecraft, which is being manufactured for an upcoming pad abort test and, potentially, the in-flight abort test.
"With NASA's support, SpaceX continues to implement the necessary modifications to equip Dragon to fly crew," said Garrett Reisman, commercial crew project manager at SpaceX. "SpaceX and NASA believe in rigorous flight testing and we are looking forward to putting our SuperDraco launch abort system through these critical tests, starting with the pad abort test in the spring and followed by the in-flight abort test in the summer."
The in-flight abort test will take place along Florida's space coast. During the test, a Dragon spacecraft will launch on a standard Falcon 9 rocket and an abort command will be issued approximately 73 seconds into the flight. At that point, the spacecraft will be flying through the area of maximum dynamic pressure, or Max Q, where the combination of air pressure and speed will cause maximal strain on the spacecraft.
Dragon will be outfitted with about 270 special sensors to measure a wide variety of stresses and acceleration effects on the spacecraft. An instrumented mannequin, similar to a crash test dummy, also will be inside. The spacecraft's parachutes will deploy for a splashdown in the Atlantic, where a ship will be pre-positioned for simulated rescue operations. The test spacecraft will be returned to Port Canaveral by barge so data can be retrieved and incorporated into the system's design.
SpaceX is one of three companies. working under NASA's Commercial Crew Integrated Capability (CCiCap) initiative to develop spaceflight capabilities that eventually could provide launch services to transport NASA astronauts to the International Space Station from U.S. soil.
This review was the eighth milestone for SpaceX under CCiCap. The company is on track to complete all 15 of its CCiCap milestones by the summer of 2014. All of NASA's industry partners, including SpaceX, continue to meet their established milestones in developing commercial crew transportation capabilities.

SpaceX Spaceport proposal
SpaceX keeps buying land on possible spaceport site
SpaceX continues to solidify its presence in Cameron County.
If property holdings measure the California-based space exploration firm's interest in establishing a commercial rocket-launching facility at Boca Chica Beach, a recent purchase increased the likelihood six-fold.
Elon Musk's Space Exploration Technologies Corp., through Director of Business Affairs Lauren Dreyer, Senior Manager Todd Ziegler and Dogleg Park LLC, recently increased its land holdings in the Boca Chica Beach area from 12 lots to 72 undeveloped lots at a tax sale on the front steps of the Cameron County Judicial Building in Brownsville, the Valley Morning Star found.
SpaceX did not respond to a request for comment.

SpaceX, a private space transport company that manufacturers and launches advanced rockets and spacecraft, has hired the Nickles Group LLC to lobby on general issues related to aerospace, budget, intellectual property, defense, labor, science/technology and tax. The Nickles lobbyists include Cynthia Merifield Tripodi, and Hazen Marshall, former staff director of the Senate Budget Committee, and former deputy chief of staff to then Assistant Majority Leader Don Nickles, R-Okla.
so, touchingly they want more from tax monies??? lm & Boeing have another view on that.
Posted 14 December 2013 - 02:35
Posted 14 December 2013 - 03:56
Nickels Group LLC is a Republican lobbying group. This gives them access to both sides of the political aisle. This is how the DC (Moscow, London. Paris....) political game is played.
This bipartisan lobbying is also something Boeing, Lockheed Martin and United Launch Alliance already do, so these established players have nothing to say as regards how SpaceX playing their game.
lm & Boeing have had more powerful lobby + their rockets are amongst most reliable in the World. expensive? yes, they are, but Musk never showed real price of his rockets. + needless to say, his rocket hasn't the best specs on market + he must prove those numbers yet (even for expendable mode). actually, he's been heavily supported by gov & those funds have run to very controversial schemes (like powered-returning stages). i said to you back then, such approach is very unstable & last attempt to return stage was illustrating it clearly. And.. why video of returning stage never has been officially posted? reverse engineering??????? seems too weak arguments: guys capable to spy have more advanced instruments to collect data, than average youtube's user

This novel is a period piece which encompasses many characters, social classes, accents and speech patterns. Because it's a social commentary on English life before and after World War I, it's rich in challenges for the narrator. John Franklyn-Robbins does a wonderful portrayal of a very descriptive text which could easily become quite tedious for the reader. Because it's written by a major author and the movie version has resurrected interest in the novel, this is a worthy selection.
(P)1993 by Recorded Books, Inc.
"very poor recording"
Although the contents of the book is good the quality of the listen is very bad. It is almost impossible to listen when outside of the house.
"Love classic novels, this one didn't disappoint."
The way the narrator handled the characters throughout the story.
I love classic novels, they don't get overly graphic and leave you to use your imagination.

Bill is a dedicated young lawyer working at his family's prestigious New York firm, who leaves everything he trained for to follow his dream and become a minister in rural Wyoming. Jenny, his wife, is a stylist whose heart and soul are invested in fashion. She leaves the milieu and life she loves to join him. The certainty they share is that their destinies are linked forever.
Fast forward 38 years. Robert is a hardworking independent book publisher in Manhattan, who has given up all personal life to build his struggling business. He is looking for one big hit novel to publish. Lillibet is a young Amish woman, living as though in the 17th century, caring for her widowed father and three young brothers on their family farm. In secret at night, by candlelight, she has written the novel that burns within her, and gets it into Robert's hands, wrapped in her hand-stitched apron. He falls in love first with the book, and then with the woman he has never met, living in the sequestered world of the Amish - a world without telephones, computers, electricity, modern conveniences, or cars. Although Lillibet faces banishment from her family and community, she embraces the opportunity to publish her novel, and is irresistibly drawn to the man who has heard her voice. Destiny is at work here. Fate draws her from her horse-and-buggy life toward his, and the publication of her novel.
In the hands of master storyteller Danielle Steel, these two remarkable relationships come together in unexpected and surprising ways, as lovers are lost, and find each other again. If it is true that real love lasts forever and lovers cannot lose each other, then Until the End of Time will not only comfort and fascinate us, as destiny does her dance, but it will give us hope as well. Love and fate are powerful, irresistible forces, as Steel proves to us here, in a book about courage, change, risk, and hope...and love that never dies.

"amazing just amazing"
I loved every part of this and would change nothing. i wish I could write that good
"what was she thinking"
this was such an awful read. a beautiful story turned into a horror. left me feeling awful so many times. she must have been going through a very dark time to write this.
then confusing to read a completely different story and horrible way to mix them together
putting us through a very sad awful read because she herself was going through a bad period
i trusted her as I always have
great narrator enjoyed listening to him read her bad choice of storyline
I am a audiobook NUT !!! I Can't Get Enough Romance Books!!!
"Great !!!!!!!!!!! its Deep!!!!!! one of her Best!!"
there are so many !!!!
I have not but this performance was outstanding!
CRY! and THINK DEEP!
check this ones out for your self you will be in oooowwww!
astrologer and visionary
"Brilliant characters acting heroically - no losers"
These are stories that make us believe in the power of eternal love - and the characters in this book show their attraction to each other in a playful, fun loving way, with lightness of heart and spirit.
My only issue was that this was two separate stories - and I wanted each to be longer, fuller and to have a more drawn-out ending. Perhaps just that I didn't want to leave behind my lovers when the story ended.
Give me water to swim and surf in. That with a glass of white wine and the sun. That's heaven.
"And That's Another Story!"
Danielle Steel once again weaves a story that pulls you into each character and illustrates by word how very much the twists and turns of life direct us from joy to sadness while once again lifting the human spirit .
"Steele is the greatest"
Yes, I enjoyed it that much!
All of them were great. It would be hard to pick just one.
Mr. Podehl is just a great storyteller period!
Until the end of time is the perfect tag line.
"Best Danielle Steel yet!"
I loved everything about this book. The story is captivating, unexpected twist in the middle and left me feeing wonderful.
I love his voice and the way each character comes to life.
The end of the first part and the unexpected turn in the story .
"this was well narrated"
I did enjoy both parts of the book, where the first part was the one that took all my interest where the second part did as well,
I really enjoyed Nick's performance very much and it was so understandablel.
at the end of part one of the book had me cry and enjoy that they were together till the end of time was very romantic. As the part two it had me sad for the girl and her father but the story line was very good.
The book which had two different stories really got my attention and enjoyed both stories very much.
I'm quite the newbie with only 2 under my belt, so this rates #2
Trouble getting into this book
Trouble getting into this book - in the beginning it was like a speed read - couldn't catch up
"Love Eternal"
Two stories linked by love, can't say much more than that or it'll ruin the reveal. It gets one more star for the first husband being my ideal man, yay!
"Until the end of time"
I listened to this in the car on a long journey, I found the story line quite gripping but was disappointed when the book almost started again with another story about different characters with a twist at the end. I would have liked the first part of the book to not have such an abrupt end! Good listening though, this was the first audio book I have listened to .....

Tired of searching for cases for your iPad Mini only to find none that fit? We know the feeling. That's why we created our very own leather iPad Mini cases, designed specifically for the smaller dimensions of this slimmed down tablet!Made with genuine leather, these cases have a soft interior lining that keeps your Mini protected at all times. The ergonomic frame allows easy access to all ports and buttons and even includes a camera opening, so you can take pictures without taking it out of the case. The included stand has 3 positions to keep your iPad Mini in place when standing up and the smart magnet on the cover automatically shuts off your tablet when you close it, saving battery life. And don't forget about our monogramming service! Whether you just want to add your initials or need to create a unique gift, we can personalize your case to make it truly special. The form and functionality of a Mini is truly remarkable, and it deserves a case that's just as awesome. Keep yours protected with our stylish iPad Mini Case & Stand and you'll be enjoying your tablet for many years to come!
Our Classico leather collection is a semi-aniline, drum dyed pebbled leather. It offers a little extra color and character, making it a good choice when you want your accessories to stand out. This full grain leather has a soft hand feel with intricate lines, giving it a distinct look from our smoother leathers like Vero and Zita. It comes in a wide variety of colors that you won't find in our other collections and has a polished finish to make them really shine. Its unique appearance and range of colors make it ideal for matching with purses, belts, or other leather items you own.
Recently received this item. Like the look and feel and engraving works well. Is this item really genuine leather? Looks good. Feels good, but I'm a skeptic. Must admit, do I like it.
I envied my husband's handsome leather ipad case and purchased the same beautiful blue for me. The order was sent in a short amount of time and I am very satisfied.
Great product. Great shopping experience.
I purchased the iPad Mini case in Kelly Green. THIS is the case I have been searching far and wide for! Just beautiful! The color is saturated and the mini is fully protected. I love the little slot in the back to hold the tongue away from the screen. I couldn't be more pleased. Bonus: it smells great too!
I am very pleased with the case - it is truly beautiful. I am most impressed with the quality of the product. And, the initials really made it special. I feel that anytime my teenage grandson refers to something as "really cool" - it is truly outstanding. I will definitely shop with you again - can see these and other products on your website as great Christmas gifts. Thank you!
Loving it! I've had 3 others before this one. None come close to the look and quality of Leatherology! 100% satisfied and highly recommend this company!
This case is awesome. It works perfectly with iPad Mini 3 Retina. Love the color.
I have to say that this is one of the best purchases I've ever made. I was so excited to get my iPad Mini, and loved the sleek look - but also knew I needed something to secure it, keep it safe, and make it easier for me to handle. I wanted something that was classy, practical, and looked great. This case fits the bill. The leather is beautiful - smells heavenly - it looks rich, feels great in your hands, and protects and houses my iPad perfectly. I got it in black with my initials in gold and I absolutely love it. Looks classy and professional. I recommend it highly. I also love the hidden slot in the back where you can slide the tab into to get it out of the way when you have the case open. Genius idea! Great job Leatherology!!! I will be back for other items in the future...
Orange - great color & great quality.
Top notch product
This is by far the best black leather iPad mini case there is to purchase. Great quality leather and the monogram adds an a little something extra. It is worth every dollar !
My leatherology case is beautiful and very well made. However, it is also heavy and, because of its design, it takes away from the sleekness of the iPad mini. In addition, you cannot use Touch ID to unlock the device. I had my case monogrammed, otherwise I'd return it.
Love it!
My concern was that it may not fit but it did! The color, quality and embossed initials look great. I look forward to using this cover and showing it off to friends and family.
Love my Kelly Green iPad case. Beautiful leather, very well-made. The free, small apple-red journal was a lovely plus!
Great Product
I ordered the Kelly green iPad mini case with tab closing.
~ Love the color
~ Quality leather is well constructed and sewn
~ Received prompt shipment of item within several days
~ The gift box is an added plus
~ Impressive variety of leather goods
~ I definitely will be purchasing more products
Very Nice - LOVE the packaging too!!!
Love my purchase of an iPad cover. Great quality. Worth the money. Very pleased.!!!!
Case was very impressive, however, I was concerned with the cutout for the camera. It looked as though in using FaceTime, part of the image would would be hindered.
Packaging was great and shipping was fast. I just today returned the case.
Not only is this a beautiful case, it is one of the most versatile cases I have owned. It protects your iPad and allows you to prop it up hands free! Well worth the money spent!
Excellent product but unfortunately the measurements of my mini Samsung did not fit......very sad..but the product is beautiful
The leather and workmanship is beautiful,
I would purchase again and reccomend
this cover to a friend. And if it was a special friend I
would definitely give as a gift. The packaging is very nice.
Very high quality and one of the best leather cases for an I pad mini I have seen. The only negative is that the flap that secures it when it is closed gets abit in the way when you are using it. You even took it out of the picture on this review page since it did not photograph as well with it. Not sure of the fix for this but need to fix this to get five stars.
Leatherology Response: Thank you for your review! Behind the tab, you will find a hidden pocket for securing the tab! Contact us at 800.818.4478 if you need anything further.
Absolutely love this case. Very sturdy, and very attractive. Beautiful leather, feels soft to the touch. The burgundy color is very rich looking. Easy to open and close. Adjustable stand makes it easy to use whether on my lap or on a table. My friend bought one in another color. When I saw hers, I had to have one of my own. I've never seen a case as nice as this. I'm glad I spent the extra money for this product.
I love it. One reviewer did not like the thickness of the cover. It does make the mini the size of a medium paperback. However, I like the feel of the iPad being fully protected. It's easy to take pictures. Turns itself off when you close the cover AND it's beautiful. I get lots of compliments on the blue color. I am very pleased with it.
This case fits my ipad mini perfectly. It protects it well. The color and leather are beautiful, as are all Leatherology products. It works well too, holding the pad at two angles when needed, especially, for me, when watching films on planes.
However, it makes it look pretty retro--like an '80's date book, and the little flap hangs down in front of the screen, so I have to try to tuck it back.
Otherwise, perfect!!!
I'm a junkie for quality leather products, and lately, I'm all about the colors! This iPad mini case meets those needs and the functionality requirements too! Great value. Great product. This was my first order from Leatherology, but not my last!
The case looked great on line but it is too bulky and cumbersome . I wish I hadn't had it monogrammed so I could return it.
Love it...beautiful leather case!
I ordered the yellow it is beautiful will order again
This was a gift for my man, he seem to like it and it is keeping his ipad safe. Appears to be of superior quality. thanks, Pat
My husband loves it, beautiful product and I was really very impressed with the packaging, it made the present look stunning.
This was a gift for my daughter and it was perfect. The color was beautiful and true to the pictures. The quality of the leather and craftsmanship was outstanding and all so beautifully packaged; it was a delight to give. Customer service was awesome - they emailed me with a slight shipping delay due to weather during the busy holiday season. Will definitely buy from this company again.
Got this for my daughter as a Christmas present. When we got it an open it we were very impressed with the whole packaging. Looked very elegant and tastefully done. Will buy again from this site. My daughter loved it and was impressed with the monogram . Great job and made it easy shopping on line. Thank- you
very versatile and nice quality. would definitely buy again!
This product arrived amazingly fast after placing the order. It fits snug and serves the purpose well.
Dear Leatherology,
I am so impressed with my new iPad Mini Case & Stand. It is perfect! Great service, price and product... Thank you!!!!
Mrs. Lin Olsen
Love the case, very soft leather holds mini while typing in a convient position. Now my iPad fit in my purse and is well protected in my new leather case.
First class product well worth the price. Beautifully crafted with quality soft leather. A perfect fit for my IPad Mini. Very pleased!
As a person who has sold leather for a living for 20 years, I can tell you that the quality and workmanship of this product is by far the best I have seen for the price. My family has been in the leather business since 1893, and come from a small town called Gloversville N.Y. Yes, at one time it was the glove producing capital of the country.
Great iPad Mini case; beautiful plus useful! Recommend this product highly!
The product is just gorgeous. Beautiful quality black leather, great finishing and monogram. Excellent functionality. Speedy efficient delivery. I couldn't be more pleased.
Whether you are treating yourself or giving a gift to someone else, we want you to have an amazing and memorable experience. All items will be shipped using our signature gift packaging. Depending on the type and size, your item(s) will come wrapped in our signature microsuede sleeve, drawstring bag or soft velour bag (each with black tie accents), and be packaged inside a high-density bronze gift box. You will also have the opportunity to add a personalized gift note when you place your order.
All of this extra attention to detail is complimentary.
