Q. Tony,
I am in the process of building a 1992 Z28 Camaro. I am changing it over to an LS engine and am also upgrading the suspension. I plan on autocrossing it a little but can't figure out what setup would be best. I was considering going with coilovers, but then someone mentioned that the strut towers weren't designed to support the weight of the car and that there would be a lot of additional body flex and I would also be limited to a smaller tire width in the front as well. This advice seemed reasonable enough, so I started looking into other options like air ride or just a set of lowering springs. I was checking thirdgen.org and found something called "weight jacks" and wanted to know if you have ever dealt with them or what your opinion was of them. So, what is the best way to upgrade the suspension for a third-gen when it comes to autocrossing? I'm not too worried about ride quality as much as I am about the performance factor. I plan on going with an aftermarket K-member and would like some advice before I order.
Love the magazine and keep up the good work.
Zach K.
Wasilla, Alaska

A. Zach,
Thanks for the kind words. It's nice to get a good review from third-gen readers.
To start with, every third-gen Camaro (and Firebird) owner that is autocrossing should seriously consider installing a Global West Wander Bar. The front framerails are strong, but they do move around a bit due to the location of the steering box and the load transferred to it under load. Movement of the steering box creates unwanted steering changes, which creates unpredictable handling. When you're trying to be competitive, having a predictable car will only improve your times. Some production Camaros have a factory version of the Wander Bar, but Global West's version fits better and is more rigid. The Wander Bar installs easily between the body and the sway bar frame mounts.
If you don't have subframe connectors, you should seriously consider installing them as well.
The person, who advised you against coilovers because the strut towers weren't designed to hold the weight of the car, gave you some good advice. The weight of the car and its ride height is controlled by the coil springs. I assume that the weight jacks you're referring to are the Ground Control units. Weight jacks are nice if you're going to play around with the ride height and still have full adjustability for track tuning. For an everyday street car they are a little much. Keep in mind that every time you adjust them, you're changing the frontend alignment. Changing the ride height in the rear also changes the position of the rear axle from side to side, so an adjustable Panhard bar is a must-have.
The tubular front crossmember is cool if you're going drag racing and want to reduce weight. Plenty of third-gen Camaros perform great on open track and autocross courses using the factory front crossmember. If yours is working fine, you may be much better off investing your money in the rear suspension. Global West (globalwest.net) makes a killer rear suspension upgrade in the form of the Traclink, which replaces the rear torque arm. Through a change in leverage points, it increases traction in the rear during deceleration and decreases nose-dive under hard braking. This all adds up to more control of your car.
Q. Tony,
I replaced the starter along with a bunch of other parts in my 1984 Camaro, but I forgot to disconnect the battery. During the installation, there was an arc. Now my car won't start. Can you tell me what the problem could be and how to fix it? I miss driving my baby.
Via Facebook
A. Doug,
You inadvertently applied 12 volts to the wrong wire and probably shorted out the starter solenoid or burned out the fusible link. The best way to test the solenoid is to pull the starter off the car and test it to confirm that the gear engages and that it turns. If the solenoid works, the fusible link is probably destroyed. If so, the wire and its insulation will be melted. The starter wiring on an 1984 Camaro should go through a heat protection tube located above the starter. Fishing out this wire in the back of the engine compartment is a bear. Removing the starter helps with access. If the fusible link is scorched, replace it and everything should work so you can get back on the road.
Good luck!

Looks pretty cool and the only part that really screams XBOX is the button letters/colors. Dont see why they couldnt of changed these.
Actually, dont see really what the big deal is. A lot of 3rd parties make controllers for the XBOX that looks more like the XBOX controller than Samsung's. Should Razer be sued as well and be complained about? Maybe Razer is licensed for it...who knows...still, nothing new tho. I have seen other controllers for the PC that look similar to the XBOX as well. (see below)
Easy to hate on Samsung since they are a hot topic...not so easy I guess to take a step back and realize this isnt anything new in the industry.
Posted 15 March 2013 - 13:44
Yeah those 3rd party companies get licensed by Microsoft. There have been a few instances where MS sued companies for not licensing.
There are lots of patents involved, which is why most 3rd party controllers look completely different than the stock ones.
It's pretty clear above that Samsung ripped off the color buttons and the d-pad from the 360 controller. The analogs and home button look awfully familiar to what Nintendo uses.

Looks great.
All those bitching about copying design. you must hate going into places where coffee makers, tires, blankets, pillows, shoes, and about EVERYTHING ELSE looks the same. Shut up with your whining about things being copied. It happens in every ****ing field,place, or whatever. Get used to it. It's how things get better. You copy one good idea, but hopefully add something else to it. If it wasn't good, it wouldn't be worth copying.
Or do you just want some unique, never been seen design for a controller.... something like the N64 but for phones? Cause I'd rather have something I'm pretty familiar with.
Posted 15 March 2013 - 14:45
You pretty clearly don't understand what a patent is... How many coffee makers look identical to a Keurig? None, because it's patented. How many tires look the same? All, because you can't patent it. If you're going to call people out, at least have your facts straight...

I have the keyboard you can see in the attached picture and I'm trying to find out which layout it is.
I bought it pretty much 2 years ago directly from Logitech and now want to buy another one with the same layout.
I'm pretty sure that at the time I had bought US-International layout, alas this is no longer showing as an option on their site.
When I contacted Logitech they told me I should get the DUTCH (QWERTY) layout, as it would be the same.
However when I searched on Google for that layout, the ones that were presented didn't match up.
Also tried searching using the Product and Serial Numbers on my keyboard, but they don't seem to be related to a specific keyboard layout.
Does anyone know for sure what keyboard layout I have?
Many thanks!!
Best Answer e.worm jimmmy , 26 July 2013 - 18:34
its called "US-International keyboard layout"
but i think you can make do without, by holding alt+ctrl at the same timeGo to the full post

Java on the NXT: leJOS NXJ is here!
I know many people have been awaiting this big step forwards from iCommand. (Which runs a Java program on your PC to remotely control the NXT.)
Details from the leJOS home page:
leJOS NXJ is ready for download. leJOS NXJ is a full firmware replacement and works for Windows and Linux. This is a technology preview of things to come. At the moment there is no Bluetooth, I2C (Ultrasonic sensor), or sound support and we do not have a basic menu system. You can write Java programs and upload them to the NXT brick via USB. (see readme for more information)
Congratulations to Brian Bagnall and everyone who has been working on this, and thanks for letting us know about the release.
Please leave a comment if you try it. (I have not installed it yet, and I probably will not have the time before the weekend.)

It looks very similar to the RCX version. I wonder how they got it to port to the NXT.
Do you know if they are using the Bluetooth protocol internally to accomplish this or was there an attempt to reverse engineer the NXT similar to the work of
Keloa Proudfoot ?
- Jan 11, 2007, 11:53:00 PM
I'm the guy that did the low level stuff to get NXJ working. This effort started before Lego made their fw source available and uses all original code.
You can't just use the BT protocol internally. That does not make sense.
The NXT low-level firmware was written from the ground up using the schematics and documentation as reference. When the Lego fw source became available, I looked at that once or twice for clarification of some missing info in the documents.
The firmware development was done using gcc for ARM and jtag debugging etc. See http://users.actrix.co.nz/manningc/lejos_nxt.jpg
There's still quite a bit to go to get a full system, but various people have been using pre-release Lejos NXJ for a few weeks now.
This effort was similar in ways to Proudfoot's work. This effort did not require as much hardware reverse engineering because Lego released the schematics. On the flip side though, the NXT is far more complex and there are a lot more complex issues to sort out. For example, the link between the ARM and the AVR was a lot more complex to debug.
- Jan 12, 2007, 8:43:00 AM
Is NXJ windows and linux only? Or just not tested on OSX?
- Jan 13, 2007, 2:34:00 PM
While I don't know if anyone has tries OSX I can't see why it would not work.
You need java and you need to build USB loader which is built on libusb. If you want to rebuild the VM from scratch you will need gcc etc for ARM too. So long as libusb supports OSX (which a quick Google search suggests is good), then I can't see any problems with using NXJ on OSX.
Of course you could then post on the Lejos mailing list any special steps you needed to take :-)
- Jan 14, 2007, 8:48:00 AM
- Spirou said...
I have build the loader (not the VM) under OSX.
You need:
Developer Tools (obviously)
libUSB ( configure / make / make install)
I haven't build the VM cause i did want to build a GCC tool chain for ARM for a simple quick look on a alpha release.

- Jan 16, 2007, 2:41:00 AM
Good to hear it. Please post your results on the lejos mailing list
- Jan 16, 2007, 7:01:00 AM
Once this is ironed out, it will be quite a step forward for beginning programming/robotics courses considering they had to wade into the waters of c or c++ before this. Did you leave the garbage collection routines in place? Can't wait to try it out.
- Aug 2, 2007, 9:37:00 PM
Does anyone know how to uninstall lejos again. I cannot connect from within the nxt software to download the factory firmware
- Feb 23, 2008, 7:06:00 AM
The NXT has a reset button ( I forget exactly where). If you use that it should reset the NXT back to it's factory settings.

100s of jobs on the way at £350m Ulverston site
Last updated at 16:23, Thursday, 22 March 2012
A £350m biopharmaceutical plant is set to be built in Ulverston, creating hundreds of jobs.
After months of consultation and feasibility studies, GlaxoSmithKline has today revealed Ulverston has been picked as the location for a new biopharm facility.Construction of the new plant is expected to begin in 2014 and take up to six years.
Welcoming the news, Prime Minister David Cameron said the investment would provide a "huge boost to the area".
Plans to build a new facility were first announced by Glaxo back in 2009 after the government outlined pre-budget proposals to cut tax by more than 60 per cent on profits from UK patents.
The 'patent box', which was confirmed in yesterday's Budget, will result in a reduced rate of corporation tax applying to income from patents, from April 2013.
Glaxo shortlisted four potential sites for the biopharm plant in December 2009, with Ulverston facing stiff competition from Barnard Castle in the north east and Montrose and Irvine in Scotland.
Fears were raised that Ulverston could lose out to one of the two sites north of the border after a series of incentives were offered by the Scottish Government. A campaign was launched by Furness Enterprise to try to convince Glaxo that Ulverston was the best place for the investment.
Last November, Glaxo bosses visited Ulverston to tour the existing site. The site director at the time, Adrian Lowes, said: "I am very proud to say that we were able to show the assessment team what a great operation we run here at Ulverston."
Today's announcement that Ulverston has been picked for the new facility has been welcomed across the Cumbrian economy and beyond.
Prime Minister David Cameron said: "This is excellent news for Cumbria – a major investment that will create many highly skilled jobs and provide a huge boost to the area.
"The plans for a new manufacturing facility at Ulverston show why we are right to cut business tax and focus on making the UK a dynamic and competitive place that can attract exactly this type of high tech investment.
"We have a world class life sciences industry, and I am determined not just to keep it here in the UK but significantly increase it too. We cannot be complacent, the industry is changing, and we must change with it.
"Our innovative life sciences strategy and ground-breaking patent box are already making a difference, helping to grow this important industry and ensure the great medicines of the future are discovered and made here in Britain at sites such as Ulverston."
Glaxo's Ulverston site employs around 240 people and manufactures key ingredients for antibiotics. Today's announcement follows an extensive feasibility study into the four competing sites which looked at technical ability, sterile processing skills and existing links with local suppliers and academic partners.
GSK's chief executive, Sir Andrew Witty, said: "The introduction of the patent box has transformed the way in which we view the UK as a location for new investments, ensuring that the medicines of the future will not only be discovered, but can also continue to be made here in Britain. Consequently, we can confirm that we will build GSK's first new UK factory for almost 40 years and that we will make other substantial capital investments in our British manufacturing base. In total, this will create up to 1,000 jobs over the lifetime of the projects. We are also actively considering other investments in our UK manufacturing network which would create further jobs and reinforce the UK's international competitiveness and as a world leader in life sciences."
GSK is also considering further significant manufacturing investment at Ulverston which could double the total investment at the site to approximately £700m and create further jobs in the longer term. Bosses said additional investment would depend on continued improvements in the environment for innovation in the UK. Glaxo has also announced plans to invest £100m at its Montrose and Irvine sites.
Speaking to the Evening Mail today, Harry Knowles, chief executive of Furness Enterprise which supported the bid to bring the plant to Ulverston, said: "This is absolutely fantastic news. I am absolutely delighted that GSK has chosen to put this brand new investment into Ulverston. Tremendous credit goes to the local GSK management team led formerly by Adrian Lowes and now Greig Rooney. It is also testament to the support that the local management team have received from South Lakeland District Council, the local MP John Woodcock, ourselves Furness Enterprise and supported by the Cumbrian LEP.
"From a situation where we were seeing investment at Ulverston in a period of decline, we are now going to see a tremendous boost and a boost in jobs as well. I can not tell you how delighted I am. I am almost speechless."
Barrow and Furness MP John Woodcock said: "I am delighted that GSK has chosen Ulverston for its exciting new bio-tech investment and proud that this boost was secured by the major tax break for innovation pioneered by the last Labour government. After a hard fought competition with other UK sites, GSK's decision is a major vote of confidence in the brilliant and determined workforce at Ulverston. There is so much potential in this region if the government is prepared to build on Labour's commitment to innovation and investment which set in train the process that Ulverston has won today."

Why do I bring him up now?
Because Hugh Hewitt said this the other day on Twitter:
Still waiting for critics of Rove to nominate best GOP strategist…for most it is like hating your starting QB but having no back-up.
Hewitt's statement got my dander up a bit and then I sorta went on a rant.
Allow me me sorta clean up my tweets for human consumption.
First, I have no other GOP strategerist to replace Karl Rove, so I'll concede Hewitt a well-earned point. If I absolutely had to pick someone to run the 2016 Republican ticket, I'd hire the person who ran either Scott Walker's or Bobby Jindal's campaigns and then hope for the best. At least those folks have had success in the last four years.
Like every other facet of the GOP panoply, it's very tough to have confidence in politicos based in Washington DC. Choosing somebody outside the Beltway might be the only viable option.
But here's something I've been wondering. How come nobody–not the slick consultants, the overpriced underperforming tech gurus, or the high-powered campaign honchos–could figure out just how stupid and self-defeating Mitt Romney's pro-life positioning was?
Think about the journey Romney took to become an anti-abortion presidential candidate. Homeboy was pro-abortion for most of his public life. He only started making vaguely pro-life noises in 2005. He then tried to assure the GOP faithful that he was pro-life.
There were several problems with Mitt's messaging. Most pro-lifers were very skeptical of Romney's rather recent and not completely convincing conversion. That alone probably depressed social conservative turnout and hurt Romney's chances on Election Day.
However, Mitt being perceived as an insincere opportunist wasn't his biggest problem. Romney never used his pro-life position for anything except winning the GOP nomination. Once he got that, being anti-abortion was more or less forgotten by the campaign and the candidate.
Funny thing is, Obamaton propaganda ministers David Plouffe and Jim Messina didn't forget. While Romney was trying and failing to make the election about the national debt going supernova and the sputtering American economy, Obama succeeded in making 2012 about Mitt being a misogynistic piece of dogshit. Naturally, Team Barry used Romney's pro-life stance as the convenient hook to slam the former Massachusetts governor as a vagina-hating douchecanoe. Romney never defended being anti-abortion except in the weakest most mewling ways. Even worse, the GOP standard bearer never employed his pro-life stance as a club to beat up Obama at all.
For God's sake, Obama voted against the Born Alive Act when he was an Illinois muckety-muck. He gave (and continues to give) lots of federal tax dollar love to Planned Parenthood, the same organization that was cool with giving abortions to what it thought were underage sex slaves. There was plenty of anti-life extremism in Obama's curriculum vitae that could've been exploited by the Romney camp. But they just couldn't bring themselves to do it.
So why did Mitt Romney even bother going through the motions to become a pro-lifer in the first place? His position on the abortion issue didn't energize evangelical Christians and other components of the social conservative movement. It didn't expand the party's base by getting significant chunks of the Latino vote, a constituency I keep hearing is full of natural Republican voters. Further, Mitt never employed his pro-life stance as a pivot to attack Barack Obama's shockingly radical anti-life actions. Once the primaries were over, being pro-life didn't help Romney in any way. It can be credibly argued that being a squishy half-assed pro-lifer hurt Romney because it gave Obama an opening to create the War On Women narrative against the GOP standard-bearer.
This should be an iron-clad rule in politics: If your ideological positions are not helping you, they will be used by your opponent to hurt you. This is especially true when it comes to abortion, which is far more emotional and polarizing then an issue like energy independence or entitlement reform. Mitt and his team forgot this law of partisan warfare and it cost them dearly.
I'll admit that this post is a lot of gussied-up Monday morning quarterbacking. On the other hand, the Republican Party consultant class gets paid to figure this out before the election and they still don't know how to play the game. If you listen to Karl Rove and his ilk, they still think the GOP's problems are caused by being too right-wing. They've had just as much time as I've had to do a post-game analysis of the November debacle. Their strongest recommendations involve letting Obama get his way on everything, then lather-rinse-repeat until 2016.
To be fair, Karl Rove won two presidential elections in the last decade, so its not like he's got no game. The problem is that he doesn't understand why Mitt Romney got his ass beat two and a half months ago. Nor does anybody else who runs anything in the Republican Party seem to get it either. If Turd Blossom is the best the GOP can do, then they deserve to perish because they suck at politics.
RELATED: I don't wanna belabor the point, but I'm going to anyway.
Politics–like life itself–is often not about what you say, but how you say it. If Barack Obama stated, "I'm going to raise your taxes because I think you're too stupid to know what to do with all your money", he'd win 10 states, tops. If the President declared, "I'm going to obliterate the Second Amendment and incrementally take away your guns because I don't trust you, the great unwashed bitter clingers", his approval rating would hover just above herpes. If Two-Pack Attack Barry admitted that ObamaCare was going to feature death panels to determine who gets what kinds of medical treatment, Romney would've won the 2012 election with seventy percent of the popular vote.
But of course, Obama doesn't do that. The Duffer-in-Chief believes all those things in his heart, but he never says them out loud. Instead, he always couches his ideology in nicey-nice pablum: "balanced approach", "common sense gun laws", "Obama does care". Even better? As he describes his own campus Marxism as true-blue Americana, he's turns the Republicans into the Ku Klux Klan, the Taliban and the Nazis all rolled into one big slimy ball of extremism.
It doesn't help matters when prominent candidates on the Republican side completely lose the plot and play into his hands. The problem with the GOP isn't that Todd Akin misspoke on the life issue. It's that Todd Akin was never taught how to speak credibly and effectively about his political views in the first place.
To stick with the abortion issue, being pro-life isn't enough for a political candidate. Being extremely pro-life isn't enough. Being pro-life and then turning your position into a cudgel to beat up your opponent is what has to happen if you want to win. Allowing yourself to get bogged down in some weird rhetorical side street will only get you in trouble. If you're not on offense, you're on defense. That means you're getting your ass kicked.
This is true of every political issue. Why take a stand on any topic if it cannot be weaponized and deployed against an opponent?

Big turbo engines are nothing new in the world of Outlaw drag racing, but it's a rare engine combination that makes 2,000 hp from only 400 cubic inches. And we're pretty sure the number of LS engines that have achieved that impressive result can be counted on one hand.
This is the story of one of them.
In an experiment backed by GM Performance Parts (GMPP), Detroit-area engine builder Thomson Automotive (www.thomsonengines.com) decided to push GMPP's LSX block to see whether it lived up to the advertised claim of supporting 2,000 hp. It did it with some custom parts and a couple of huge turbochargers.
Because of projects like this one and a symbiotic relationship with GMPP, Thomson is rapidly becoming one of the country's foremost experts in high-horsepower LS engine development. The turbo LSX project was launched nearly two years ago, when the LSX program was in its infancy and parts for it were being custom-built.
GM Performance Parts was eager for an independent party to verify its claims for the LSX platform, so it donated the cylinder block, as well as a set of prototype LSX racing heads.
"One of the keys to the success of the LSX block is the additional cylinder head bolt provisions," says Brian Thomson, president of Thomson Automotive. "Production LS blocks have four head bolts per cylinder, but the LSX blocks accommodate six bolts per cylinder. It makes a huge difference in clamping power and, frankly, with the amount of boost this engine makes, it wouldn't survive without that added clamping power."
Those prototype heads were all the more necessary, too, because when the project started, they were just about the only six-bolt heads Thomson could locate. Today, GMPP and a couple of other aftermarket manufacturers offer ready-built six-bolt heads.
So, Thomson had the block and heads secured, but the rest of the assembly was still up for debate-including the displacement. A previous experiment with a boosted, 454ci LS engine brought about concerns of crankshaft flex, so the decision was made to go a little conservative on the stroke.
"We planned to rev the engine pretty high and throw a lot of boost at it, so we felt we could overcome the displacement deficit without too much trouble," says Thomson. "What we gave up in cubic inches, we'd hopefully make up in longevity and durability."
Thomson's caution paid off. The engine has made nearly 2,050 hp on the dyno-more than five horsepower generated for every cubic inch of displacement-and has survived approximately 150 full-load dyno pulls without so much as an oil leak.
"We've never lost a head gasket or had any real issues with it," Thomson says. "We inspected the bottom end numerous times and it all looked great. We replaced some bearings for good measure after so many dyno pulls, but the engine has been very reliable."
THE BASIC COMBINATIONWhen you first look at the twin-turbo LSX engine, it looks as if a couple of Caterpillar loaders were robbed of their turbochargers. A pair of 88mm Turbonetics turbochargers dominates the assembly, along with a custom intake system that looks somewhat like a Mad Max version of a tunnel ram. There's a front-mounted distributor in place of the typical LS-engine coil packs.
Here's an overview of the basic parts and why they were selected:
ROTATING ASSEMBLY A Callies 3.750-inch-stroke forged crankshaft is connected to a set of GRP forged aluminum connecting rods. The pistons are from Diamond and in order to keep the compression ratio at a boost-friendly 9:1, they feature large, 50cc dishes.
The rotating assembly is housed in a tall-deck version of the LSX cylinder block. Its 9.70-inch deck height enabled the racing-style connecting rods to swing freely, without the need for internal block clearancing.
By the way, the bores measure 4.125 inches. With the 3.750-inch stroke, that makes the displacement just a hair less than 401ci.

I'd sooner walk into oncoming traffic than under a ladder. Quite a few of you suggested I visit Le Pere Lachaise.
Are you kidding me?
My father instructed us anytime we passed a cemetery, funeral or hearse to spit 3 times (figuratively of course).
I do it to this day.
One of you PBers sent me this photo of a black cat in Le Pere Lachaise cemetery! If my dad saw a black cat crossing the road... He would turn the car around. No questions asked.Whenever the family went off on a trip...
In fact we've already left.I never go to Paris or anywhere without saying this. Once I tried to explain to a French woman in Provence that we could not go to Cezanne's Mont Sainte Victoire without saying the travel incantation.
I tried to translate -
Do tell all!
Writing's on the wall,
Very superstitious,
Ladders bout' to fall,
Broke the lookin' glass
Seven years of bad luck,
The good things in your past
That you don't understand,
Then you suffer,
Superstition ain't the way

Following five years of extraordinary success with La Sonnambula, Norma and Beatrice di Tenda, I Puritani, the last opera written by a young Bellini, who died at age 34, is the richest example of transition from the lyrical classicism to the passion of romanticism. The first performances, in Paris, 1835, interpreted by the most beautiful voices of the time, became a legend. For this production of I Puritani, the Teatro Comunale di Bologna has reunited two young stars who could well become the dream couple in the opera world: Juan Diego Florez and Nino Machaidze. Conducted by the extremely talented Michele Mariotti, I Puritani has been directed by the internationally renowned Pier'Alli, who, for more than 25 years, has set milestones in the story of opera direction.

Inspiration for decor comes from many sources. The ancient Egyptians based much of their art on their belief system, daily royal life, and the wildlife that occurred in the valley of the Nile. Sculptures of Greek deities were also based on a belief system while Greek statues of fauns and other mythical creatures came from their legends and folktales. Despite the passing of hundreds of years, Egyptian art continues to be popular in many parts of the world, and many a garden boasts a statue of a Greek deity.
Another source of inspiration that has endured since people made paintings on cave walls is that of the animal. The variety and beauty of life on this planet has given rise to countless paintings, sculptures, and wall decor. Several beautiful animal-inspired works are featured in our Basil Street collection, including the realistic Leopards Lair Sculptural Wall Frieze. This unique sculptural wall decor mirrors the behavior of an African Leopard at rest.
Another animal that has inspired many a work of art is the Indian Peafowl. Glad in shimmering blue, green, and bronze, it almost looks too extravagant to be real. Our Peacocks in Paradise Statue captures the incredible beauty of these amazing birds and is a regal addition to home and business.
At Basil Street, we also have animal-themed decor that blends lighting with animal sculptures. The Heads Above Giraffe Floor Lamp is one such unique decor item.

A Robed Revolution: Female Ordination in Buddhism
Female ordination in Buddhism is one of the most hotly contested issues in the Buddhist world today. Dr. Susanne Mrozik of Mount Holyoke College will examine what is at stake—and for whom—in international and local campaigns to grant women access to full ordination as Buddhist nuns (bhikkhuni). She focuses particular attention on Sri Lanka, where she spent two years conducting ethnographic research on the 1998 revival of the Sri Lankan Theravada Buddhist nun's order.

MABEN – The campuses of West Oktibbeha and East Webster are just a stone's throw apart.
Friday night's basketball game between the two rival schools at the East Webster Invitational Tournament was just as close.
The Timberwolves used a strong second half performance from Kendrin Yates to slide past the Wolverines 64-62.
"It's always tough when you play your rival from right down the street," said West Oktibbeha head coach Danny Crawford. "The kids have grown up together and played ball together. Then, you play them on their court, they are going to play extra hard. That makes us have to play extra hard."
East Webster, who fell to 1-2, controlled much of the first half, carrying an 18-12 lead after one quarter and a 33-28 advantage into the locker room at halftime.
"My kids didn't respond to the atmosphere and climate of the game in the first half, but they finally found enough in themselves to pull it out," said Crawford.
Two key factors helped the Timberwolves cause.
First, East Webster point guard Ledrick Patterson found himself in early foul trouble that forced him to the bench for the middle portion of the contest.
"That hurt a lot," said East Webster head coach Corey Stidham. "Our guys stepped up off the bench though and did a great job of coming in. Still, it's different when you don't have Ledrick out there making things happen."
Additionally, Yates bounced back from first half foul trouble himself to put up 16 of his 22 points in the final two quarters.
"I got after (Yates) pretty good at halftime," said Crawford. "He got those two quick fouls in the first four minutes and I had to sit him, so I had to get on him."
Whatever Crawford said, it worked.
"My momentum went up," said Yates. "I knew it was time for me to step up. At first, it was like we were going to lose against our rival. That would be the worst feeling ever. But when we turned on though, we turned on."
Dantaveous Crawford and Aaron Brownlee aided Yates' big night.
Dantaveous Crawford finished with 19 points and Brownlee tallied 14 as West Oktibbeha improved to 10-2.
Damion Britt led East Webster with 22 points.
Patterson finished with 17 and Jamie McKee added 11.
The Timberwolves will look to wrap up play undefeated in the East Webster Invitational as they face Ackerman at 5:30 p.m. today.
East Webster will tangle with Eupora at 8:30 p.m.
Stidham says he hopes his team can put Friday's close loss behind them and focus on getting a win against the Eagles.
"It's a county rival," said Stidham. "No doubt, Eupora will step up. We'll step up too. Our guys have too much heart and too much fight to not be ready to go at them."
Eupora 72,
Ackerman 47
MABEN – Eupora boys basketball coach Curtis Ford makes no secret about his team's struggles in the early portions of this season.
At least for a day, his concerns were alleviated thanks to a dominating win over rival Ackerman Friday at the East Webster Invitational Tournament.
"Right now, both (Ackerman) and us are struggling, so it did feel good to get a win," said Ford. "I felt like we played with a little more intensity on defense, got up and down the floor better in transition, and we rebounded a little bit better."
Derrick Jones, Deshawn Starks and Jeremy Wright did the majority of the offensive damage for the Eagles.
Jones scored a game-high 27 points, 20 of which came before halftime.
Starks tallied 21 points while Wright finished with 18.
"(Starks and Wright) are our best shooters," said Ford. "(Jones) is our point guard and he's not a jump-shooter. He can drive and penetrate and dish it out. We just tell him to get the ball to (Starks and Wright). Tonight he did. (Jones) took his when it was open in the middle."
Ford's talented trio definitely left an impression as the Eagles improved to 1-3.
Ackerman head coach Gary Beals said his team was simply overmatched.
"It kind of looked like the big Tonka toys up against the Hot Wheels out there," said Beals. "We did have some positives though. When you get out-athleted, people bigger than you are, I told my guys we've got to take some charges on the baseline. I thought we did a good job of that. That kind of thing makes me think in two or three years, we're going to have something special."
The Indians dropped to 0-4 with the loss.
For the Eagles, Ford said the lopsided win created a sense of relief and makes him believe Eupora is starting to turn a curve.
"The dressing room was a whole lot livelier and happier than we have been these last few nights," said Ford. "And I think these guys that played football are getting in a little bit of shape. Tonight, I think our chemistry was a little bit better than it has been too."
Eupora will try and build off of Friday's win tonight at 8:30 p.m. against county rival East Webster.
"That's a big game," said Ford. "Ackerman, Eupora, East Webster, any mix of those is a rivalry. Those games are number one on the schedule."
Ackerman will try rebound at 7 p.m. as they take on West Oktibbeha.

This application note describes the extraction of THC and metabolites from urine using ISOLUTE SLE+ columns or plates. Globally, cannabis is one of the most widely used illicit drugs. The naturally occurring cannabinoids found in hemp species bind to receptors in the brain and cause sensations of relaxation and calm. Widespread legislation against the use of cannabis has led to the necessity for rapid and reliable methods for the analysis and quantitation of cannabinoids and metabolites. The most prevalent marker in biological samples taken from cannabis abusers is 11-nor-9-carboxy-Δ9-THC. This study demonstrates a supported liquid extraction procedure for 11-nor-9-carboxy-Δ9-THC.

Besta work station with lots of storage
The Besta, though a storage system, came together really well as a work station for Thomas.
He says, "Searching for a desk for my workplace was very hard and I could not find anything which fitted my new appartment.
So I came up with my own solution: Building up a rack with Besta and leaving a gap for the countertop. The base for the countertop are Besta racks as well. The countertop itself is a high gloss Personlig with a stainless steel border at 7.6 cm height (about 3 inch).
The length of the countertop is derived from the size of the Besta racks: For this one the depth of the racks at the wall and the three Besta racks at the front are all together 228 cm (about 7.5 feet). The depth depends on the gap between the wall mounted racks, in my case 100 cm (about 3.3 feet)
It was very easy to install this desk. The countertop was delivered finished, so the only work I had to do was put it up on the Besta racks and fix it with some screws. I have cut in some holes to put the cables under the countertop. Because the countertop hung down 7.6 cm at the edges, I had a lot of place to hide the cables underneath the countertop.

Very nice looking work station. I do have a question though. On the right side of the desk (if seated), you have 2 Besta cabinets back to back with a 20cm gap between them. What did you use to fill that gap and how did you finish it?
ikea japan?

The room and furnitures are really nice! Looks very upscale and modern, it's looks fantastic and beautiful!

Thanks for all your comments about my desk.
Here some facts to answer all the questions above: The whole desk and the wall unit is Besta. If you like a little bit more information take a look at the instructions on my blog kopflos. I hope the pictures telling the whole story if you have problems with the German language
Here in Germany the Besta units are also available in white as you can see on IKEAs website.
The countertop is called PERSONLIG and I got it from IKEA but it is only available at the store and not online. I don't know whether or not the PERSONLIG countertops are available in the US IKEA stores.
@Juliet: The low seating on the right side belongs to my sofa from a local store.
Please send an email (thomas[at]kopflos[dot]eu) if there are any questions.
I love the countertop, can I find that in the US?
P.S. Where is that taupe low seating from? In the second picture on the right side? Is that from Ikea too? Thanks again.
I agree — it's beautiful! I love the space, too! I don't see Besta in white in the US. I see the doors in white, but not the frames or base units. Is the wall unit also Besta? Thanks.
Wow! That looks fantastic!
Thomas, your Besta workstation takes my breath away! Gorgeous!
Really nice! Looks very upscale and modern.
Awesome hack, looks great.
Any problems with the Mighty Mouse on the high-gloss finish?
daktari, the besta range is here
Is there a materials list for this project. I really like it, but I can't figure out what a Besta rack is. There isn't anything by that name on the US Ikea site. Also, what is the name of the base units?
i thought that your blog is about hacking a software so i check it out…anyway i like your blog content…its kinda good…im a blog observer im visiting blog everyday…
please visit my site
nice page with ikea products
beautiful workstation! The entire room is wonderful. So clean, modern. Makes me want to go clean and organize my studio. thanks for sharing.

Why I Teach
My approach to teaching, like many philosophers, is about asking individuals what an author means and how and why they agree or disagree with the author's arguments. I emphasize lively discussions in which students can better understand the ideas at hand — and how these concepts might better inform the way they think and ultimately live their lives.
I teach because I want to have a positive impact on the future of my students.

Release: 03/10/2013
AMHERST, N.Y. — Senior Ben Bennett became just the second four-time Mid-American Conference champion in Central Michigan history and sophomore Mike Ottinger began a quest at the same feat with his second-straight MAC title Sunday at the 2013 MAC Championships at the University at Buffalo.*
Bennett and Ottinger led a group of five Chippewas to earn automatic bids to the 2013 NCAA Championships in Des Moines, Iowa March 23-25 as the Maroon and Gold finished second in the team standings with 88 points.*
First-year conference affiliate Missouri won the team championship with 136 points, ending the Chippewas' 11-year reign at the top of the conference.*
Ottinger became the first champion of the day for the Chippewas, defeating No. 3 seed Mark Lewandowski in the finals by 8-5 decision. The No. 1 seed and defending champ at 165 fell behind on a takedown by Lewandowski in the first period, but quickly earned a reversal to tie the match.*
Lewandowski was able to grab a 3-2 lead after the first period with an escape, but Ottinger chose down to start the second and evened things up with an escape of his own. A takedown with one minute remaining in the second gave Ottinger an advantage heading into the third, 5-4. The sophomore held the key riding time point when Lewandowski evened the match with a third-period escape, but quickly thwarted any chance of a comeback by the Buffalo wrestler with a late takedown to secure his second-straight title.*
Bennett quickly followed with his fourth MAC title - second at 184 pounds - by defeating No. 2 seed Ryan Loder of Northern Iowa, 5-3. The two nationally ranked wrestlers were even following the first period, but Bennett quickly took a 2-0 lead in the second after choosing down and earning a reversal. Bennett continued to ride out Loder to grab riding time advantage and after an escape by Loder was able to earn another takedown to secure the win.*
The victory improved Bennett's record to 26-0 on the season and moved him into sixth-place all time in CMU history with 116 career victories.*
Three more Chippewas punched their ticket to the NCAA Championships in senior Scotti Sentes (133), redshirt freshman Lucas Smith (157) and senior Jarod Trice (Hwt.).*
Sentes bounced back after falling in the semifinal by earning a 5-0 decision over Mackenzie McGuire of Kent State and an 11-8 decision over Nick Smith of Northern Illinois in the third-place match.*
Smith entered the tournament as the No. 5 seed and claimed one of the three automatic qualifier bids by finishing third at 157 pounds. A 7-0 decision over Andrew Morse pushed Smith to the third-place match where he picked up a 3-2 decision in the first tiebreaker over Eastern Michigan's Aaron Sulzer.
The two were tied after regulation and both held off takedown attempts in the sudden victory period before Smith took advantage by riding Sulzer out for all 30 seconds of the tiebreaker. Sulzer chose an optional start and rewarded Smith an escape point in hopes of earning a takedown to win the match, but Smith was able to hold off each attack to secure the win.*
Trice advanced to the championship match of the heavyweight division where he had a rematch from earlier this season with No. 1 seed Dom Bradley of Missouri. Bradley took a 1-0 lead with an escape in the second period and was able to build over a minute of riding time before letting Trice escape in the third. With a riding time point secured for Bradley, Trice was forced to push the pace and got caught for a takedown to suffer a 4-1 loss.*
Senior Donnie Corby (149), junior Scott Mattingly (141) and redshirt freshman Jackson Lewis (197) also responded with strong performances in the consolation brackets to finish third, fourth and fifth respectively.*
Corby defeated Andrew Romanchik in the consolation semifinal before defeating Robert Jillard of Northern Illinois by a decision of 6-1 to claim third. The senior and two-time NCAA qualifier went up in the first with a takedown, extended the lead to 3-0 with a second-period escape and secured things with his second takedown of the match in the third. Corby will hope for an at-large bid for the NCAA Championships.*
After falling in the first round of the tournament to Missouri's Nick Hucke, Mattingly won three-straight matches to earn a rematch versus Huckey in the third-place match. Unfortunately, the result was the same as Hucke came out on top and defeating Mattingly, 7-4.*
Lewis, seeded No. 8 at 197 pounds, was able to finish fifth with a 4-3 decision over Northern Illinois' Parker Settecase.*

"Great location!"
"Great .... pulled right in the lot off E. 9th Street - was treated by friendly attendants - easy out after the game !!"
"Great, convenient parking!"
"The lot at 905 Carnegie's entrance was closed, even though it was indicated to enter from that side of the lot. Fortunately, the lot at 1333 Carnegie's attendant let us in his lot to cut thru an alley to get to our lot at 905 Carnegie, so this was a bit misleading. But once we got into the lot at 905 Carnegie the attendant acknowledged us, took my parking pass, showed us to the parking spot, and it was in close proximity to Progressive Field. We had a parking spot even though we arrived late due to the amount of traffic in downtown for the event. I would use ParkWhiz again for any event when I come downtown, it was convenient. Thank you"
"best parking i ever had for an event.. parked the car next to exit, walked across the street into the stadium and came out when event was over, walked across the street to my car, drove right out of parking lot and 1/2 bloom from my entrance to the interstate i-77 to go home. it was seamless and no hassles. worth every penny. rate as a 5 star plus location and service"
