I am planning on building a sub enclosure for a MM1040, should I go sealed or ported? Seems to me that building a sealed enclosure is easier but less efficient. I plan on putting the sub under my 02 sierra's rear seat, so I may have to get creative to fit it with only about 7" of space from the floor to the seat, foot and a half or so wide and maybe a foot long (sorry for not having exact dimensions at the moment). Its going to be powered with a pa880 unless any of you have any suggestions for an amp in the same price range that would work better.
Finally getting around to this build, already have the deck in and the rca's and amp remotes wired and ready to be hooked up.

Brothers Joe and Josh are used to doing things together. Fifteen-year-old Joe is the older brother and in the eighth grade. Josh is 13 years old and in the seventh grade.
Both brothers do well in school. Joe would like to farm when he grows up and Josh just knows he wants to go to college. Before they reach those dreams, Joe and Josh want to grow up together in their own forever family.
The brothers are good athletes. They both play football on their junior high squad and once even team tackled a runner at the same time. They also love golf, baseball and hunting.
They support each thru thick and thin. Joe and Josh say that because they don't have any parents, they have to support and look out for each other. That's why in any adoptive home they want to stay together.
If you think you may have a loving home for Joe and Josh, call 1-877-457-5430 or click on the link below for adoption information.

FAIRBANKS, ALASKA — An Alaska Air Force base is among nine finalists for the services new F-35A Joint Strike Fighter squadron.
Pacific Air Forces commander Maj. Gen. Hawk Carlisle commended Eielson Air Force Bases abundant training space but said the bases winters and its remoteness presented challenges.
The Fairbanks Daily News-Miner reports the Air Force plans to identify a list of candidate bases among nine Pacific Rim installations.
Criteria include capacity, environmental considerations and cost.
The three members of Alaskas congressional delegation plan to draft a joint letter about the F-35 basing criteria next week.
Eielson was the target of a Defense Department reduction effort in 2005. Defense officials proposed removing the bases F-16 and A-10 squadrons, but a congressional authorized independent panel ultimately recommended that only the A-10s be transferred out.

From Staff Reports
Cumberland Times-News
RIDGELEY, W.Va. — The town of Ridgeley will have a new mayor and three new councilmen as a result of Tuesday's election, according to a complete but unofficial count.
Current Councilman Lynn Carr will be sworn in as mayor July 1 along with new Councilmen Bill Shepherd, Butch Hawse and Dr. Richard Lechliter, and in-cumbent Councilmen Don McFarland and Mark Jones.
Carr had the most votes for the mayoral seat at 55 with Thomas Hedrick a close second at 52. Incumbent mayor Jim Twigg received 41 votes.
Shepherd had a landslide victory with 111 votes, followed by Hawse, 87; Lechliter, 86; McFarland, 75; and Jones, 72.
Council candidates who were defeated include Jake Ryan, 66 votes; Tanya Ryan, 63; and Dawna Twigg, 36.
Lechliter is also a Mineral County commissioner and has said that he intends to serve in both positions as allowed by the West Virginia Ethics Act because they are both part-time jobs.
Of the approximate 352 registered voters in Ridgeley, 152 cast ballots in Tuesday's election, according to Town Clerk Renee Martz.
The votes will be canvassed Monday, Martz said.

The Great Debate (India)
COLUMN – Karun Chandhok: Canadian GP a mixed bag
The Canadian GP weekend was a real mixed bag of ups and downs for me. It was my first visit to the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, or for that matter to Canada.
I've grown up watching lots of races there on TV and was really looking forward to driving there this season.
There were two things that hit me when we reached Montreal -
1) Just how big the hire cars were — we all ended up with huge SUVs out of some Puff Daddy video or in Bruno's (Senna) case a 5 litre Mustang GT and
2) the weather was just as cold, wet and miserable as the UK.
The circuit itself is set alongside the old Olympic rowing basic built for the 1976 summer Games and provides the most picturesque backdrop to a paddock of the season.

Reports that Assad Lives on Russian Warship Likely False
There is little incentive for the Syrian president to flee his country yet, experts say.
Reports that the Syrian president has been living on a navy ship off the coast of his wartorn country under Russian security are likely false, experts say.
Saudi Arabian news service al-Watan issued unconfirmed reports that family and senior advisors of Bashar al-Assad have joined the president on board a warship in the Mediterranean, secured by Russian operatives. Assad uses a helicopters to travel to Syria, reports al-Watan. This story has been re-reported by Israel's Y Net News, Business Insider, and UPI, all citing the same unconfirmed source.
Expert observers of Russian foreign policy and the behavior of the Syrian president, including the U.S. State Department, say this is likely untrue.
"There's no reason for [Assad] to be on a warship in the Mediterranean," says Syria specialist Michael Weiss, a columnist with Middle East news website NOW Lebanon. "He has to be in Damascus, because that's where he's running the whole war machine."
[RELATED: Kerry's Words on Assad Draw Scrutiny]
Al-Watan is so far the only news service to report on the rumors independently. Private intelligence company Stratfor points out Riyadh has a vested interest in making it appear Assad—a vocal critic of the Saudis as a U.S. ally—does not feel safe in his home country.
"If things had come to that point then he would have lost Damascus," says Kamran Bokhari, Stratfor's vice president of Middle Eastern affairs, adding that the Saudi government is working "feverishly" to topple Assad and his Iranian allies.
The Russian government supports Assad's efforts to crush Syria's rebellion, Weiss says, such as printing currency for the regime and supplying arms. But hosting the Syrian leader in an effort to protect him would go against the Russian's own interest, says Weiss, formerly cochair of the Russian Studies Center at the London-based Henry Jackson Society.
"If he were looking to flee, it's possible the Russians would give him safe passage out of Syria. They would not host him, they would take him somewhere else," he says.
[READ: U.S. Labels Syrian Rebel Affiliate a Terror Group]
"To host him on a warship sends the kind of signal his hold on power is kind of slipping and the Russians are preparing some kind of exit strategy for him," Weiss adds. "Things aren't dire enough for him to leave just yet."
Rebel fighters have captured roughly 70 percent of Syria, but most of that is rural territory. They remain locked in intense fighting with regime-loyal forces in and around urban centers like Aleppo and Damascus, the capital.
If Assad were to flee, he would likely retreat to the strategic mountainous stronghold of Latakia from which he could wage a chemical weapons campaign.
Joshua Landis, Syrian expert with the University of Oklahoma, predicts the Assad regime will survive to 2014. The academic, author of politics newsletter Syria Comment, accurately stated Assad would make it through 2012.
[RELATED: How Qatar Punches Above Its Weight]
The Syrian ruling regime continued its violent assault on its own people Monday as it bombed areas around Damascus in an attempt to quell rebel fighters, the AP reported. This follows the regime's use of Scud missiles and cluster bomb attacks. Human rights organizations, including the United Nations, believe more than 60,000 have died since fighting began in March 2011.
Assad strategically keeps daily body counts below 100, Weiss says, to attract minimal attention from Western countries on the brink of intervention. The United States has provided hundreds of millions of dollars of humanitarian aid, as well as non-lethal supplies such as cameras to document atrocities and post them to YouTube, but has fallen short of military intervention.
"The U.S. government has given [Assad] every reason to believe he can carry on this way, and there will be no consequences," says Weiss.
The United States, Germany, and the Netherlands have sent six Patriot batteries and hundreds of troops to the Turkish border with Syria to deter or defend against missile strikes. It is unclear if those forces are willing to engage in a preemptive strike.

Every roadway project should be a bike project, and a walking project, and a transit project, and not just a car project.
When the streets you ride on or walk across are repaved, a bike lane should be striped, crosswalks upgraded, traffic speeding issues addressed, and transit improvements incorporated from the start.
Before roadway projects start, planners should first consider how to spend your city's transportation dollars, considering the needs of everyone who uses the streets, including people like you who walk and ride. They should also consider how proposed projects meet the City's goals for better roadways and better communities. The result would be streets that look more like Photo A (A vision of Telegraph Ave as a "complete street") and less like Photo B (East 14th Street in San Leandro today).
Good news! The days will soon end when planners and engineers devise ways to move more cars and speed them up on the roadways without regard to the impacts on pedestrians, people on bikes, and transit users. In the coming years, these transportation professionals will be required to sit down with community stakeholders and ask what improvements to the streets people would like to see, what problems they are experiencing, what goals should be set to increase the number of people walking and using a bike. And the day is coming sooner rather than later thanks to the Metropolitan Transportation Commission approving a new Complete Streets Policy on May 17, which will govern future transportation projects in the Bay Area.
Despite Tea Party distractions, our elected officials are committed to directing more transportation money towards in-fill, transit-oriented development, and they are committed to ensuring these dollars are spent for the benefit of all, drivers and bicyclists alike. Every city in the East Bay is now required to adopt a Complete Streets Policy by Council resolution no later than January 31, 2013. Your Bicycle Coalition will be working with local bicycle/pedestrian advisory committees and planners in each of our cities to start the challenging work to develop these policies and seeing that they are implemented, so that they result in new bike lanes and safer streets for you to use everyday.
What you can do:
Attend an upcoming meeting of your city's Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee and provide your input on what improvements you want to see in upcoming roadway projects:
• In Berkeley, the next meeting is from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m. Monday, June 11, at the North Berkeley Senior Center at Hearst Avenue and MLK Jr. Way.
Here's the schedule in neighboring cities:
• Oakland: The Complete Streets Policy is on the July agenda. Oakland's Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee meets from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. on the third Thursday of every month in Hearing Room 4 of City Hall, 1 Frank H. Ogawa Plaza.
• Emeryville: The Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee meets from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. on the first Monday of every month in the ground floor Garden Room of City Hall, 1333 Park Ave.
• Richmond: Meetings are held from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. on the second Monday of every month on the second floor of City Hall, 450 Civic Center Plaza.
If your city is not listed here, please contact Dave Campbell, EBBC Program Director, and help us form a Bicycle Advisory Committee in your City.
The East Bay Bicycle Coalition works for safe, convenient and enjoyable bicycling for all people in the East Bay. Visit our website: www.ebbc.org to learn more about our efforts to encourage more people to try bicycling.

The Salem News
---- — Ross Murphy ran for four touchdowns for the second straight week as North Shore Tech hit the road and won the Commonwealth Small title outright with an emphatic 48-6 win over Chelsea.
The Bulldogs (8-2) ran the table in the CAC Small, finishing 3-0, and had already clinched the league's playoff berth.
"It was a good win," said Bulldogs head coach Paul Worth. "The defense played solid again and we moved the ball around the field, Tim Andersen threw ti well and we should some real speed with the Sanchez brothers (Jazmanny and Yordanny)."
The Bulldogs scored three TDs in the second quarter to break the game open, with Jazmanny Sanchez (11 yard run) and Yordanny Sanchez (78 yard run) finding the end zone. Murphy scored on runs of seven, 18, eight and 11 yards and combined with three conversion rushes totaled 30 points on the evening.
The Tech will play Northeast next Saturday in their final game before the playoffs.
"That's going to be a tough one," said Worth. "They've owned us the last three years, but we're playing some good football."
North Reading 15, Ipswich 13: In his third game back, Peter Moutevelis scored two touchdowns for the Tigers (2-8). Moutevelis ran for 110 yards in the close contest.

Last week's report from the National Research Council — a wing of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences — is being spun by NOAA officials and the giant green nonprofits as showing that the agency's steps toward rebuilding many fish stocks have proven successful.
And the report indeed finds that 43 percent of the stocks initially categorized as being "overfished" are in full or partial recovery — thanks, of course, to the fact that Gloucester's, New England's and America's fishermen have, for years now, abided by federal rules.
But those figures should hardly be seen as justification for the 78 percent cod limit cuts and the other dramatic landing reductions that have led fishermen to put their boats and/or houses up for sale this summer, while spending far more time on the dock than working, as they always had, to harvest one of our primary sources of protein from the sea. Indeed, the rebuilding of stocks should make the case for further easing limits on many stocks that have shown recovery.
Above all, however, the report makes the most profound, scientifically-based case yet for reforming the federal Magnuson Stevens Act and providing fishermen the flexibility they need — and that most state and coastal federal lawmakers have argued now for years.
"We point out that, basing (limits) on fishing mortality rather than biomass, and not shooting for a fixed timeline, might be a more robust way to go," said Patrick J. Sullivan, the professor at Cornell University and co-chair of the committee of scientists and researchers who contributed to the report. And that should be a call to NOAA officials and lawmakers alike to step up their push for changes in a law that, aside from its timeline failings, has also been poorly followed and enforced by NOAA for at least the last five years.

Reunion week continues in Sabreland on Saturday night when former Colorado head coach and current Sabres assistant Joe Sacco gets to face his old club at First Niagara Center.
Sacco admits it might feel weird seeing Avalanche players he used to coach, including Gabriel Landeskog, Ryan O'Reilly and Matt Duchene, on the opposite bench. Sacco also said he's not surprised the Avs have gotten off to a sizzling 6-1-0 start under new coach Patrick Roy.
"No. They're a good team. Their young players have some experience now. They're heading in the right direction. They play a fast game. They play with a lot of pace in their game, so no I'm not surprised."
"I think when I look back over there and see some of the young players who are starting to mature come into their own, you feel good about some of the things that you see as far as that goes," Sacco said. But on Saturday, "that all goes by the side."
While the Sabres have matched their worst nine-game start in franchise history, the penalty-killing unit has been one of a few bright spots. Sacco runs the PK and his unit enters Saturday night's game against the Avs ranked fifth in the NHL, having killed off 25-of-29 chances.
Full interview below. Quality eight minutes of chatting (sorry about floor machine that made a noisy appearance around six-minute mark).

Sometimes in the world of modern art, the patrons themselves are worth the price of admission. Tina Howe's Museum offers an absurdist take on the last day of an exhibition where some 40 outlandishly entertaining characters peruse the work of a trio of artists. Their reactions range from transfixed reverence to hopeless giggle fits and everything in between, while a nervous security guard tries in vain to keep things under control.

Matinee on April 13, 2014 at 2pm
Eurydice is just getting used to death in the Underworld when her husband shows up at its gates, singing the blues to bring her home. Now the god Hades wants to know why the snake took Eurydice's life without authorization, but Eurydice is not talking. Unless the gods get some answers, the end of Eurydice's journey could soon be Lethe, the river of forgetting.
With the help of physical theatre, puppetry and ensemble devising, U.Va. Drama Associate Professor Marianne Kubik imagines the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice from a point of view ancient mythology never reveals: Eurydice's. By examining the story's plot from her perspective, this original stage production unveils a woman facing life-altering choices that resonate across cultures, past and present, endeavoring to ask how we shape our future.
Please note The Forgetting River is intended for mature audiences.

Springfield, Mass. -- May 1, 2010 -- An eight-run fifth inning led the Tufts University baseball team to a come-from-behind 12-10 victory over Springfield College in game #1 of a doubleheader this afternoon at SC's Berry-Allen Field. The Jumbos trailed 7-0 after four innings, before they made two comebacks in this contest. Then an eight-run fourth inning proved key in game #2, as Tufts went on to victory, 12-4.
The losses closed Springfield's season with a record of 12-22. Tufts upped its overall mark to 24-5.
Springfield closed its 2010 season by honoring six seniors at the start of the day. They were: co-captains centerfielder Joe Kropa and pitcher Jon Wurster, catcher Ben Stephenson, and pitchers Chris Collard, Mike Cole, and Ryan White.
Game #1 -- Tufts 12, Springfield 10
Overall, Tufts finished with 12 runs on 12 hits with two errors. Springfield finished with 10 runs on 13 hits and two errors.
Springfield was able to jump on the board first with one run in the bottom of the first inning. Joe Kropa led off the frame with a single up the middle and later stole second base. Two batters later, John Schmaltz took the two-one offering and lined a single to left field, plating Kropa.
The Pride added two more runs in the bottom of the second, increasing the lead to 3-0. Mike Micik led off with a walk and was followed by Mike Robilotto reaching on an error by the second-baseman. Lou Nucci successfully advanced both runners into scoring position with a sacrifice bunt. Pete Calandra brought Micik in as he grounded out deep in the hole to second base. Kropa then hit a chopper to the shortstop and was able to beat the throw, plating Robilotto from third.
The Jumbos threatened to score with runners on second and third with just one out in the top of the fourth inning. David Orlowitz hit a fly to medium-deep center, where Kropa made the catch and threw a perfect strike at home to nail the runner.
Springfield kept the offense rolling in the bottom of the fourth. Robilotto lined a double down the leftfield line to lead off the inning and advanced to third on a wild pitch. Nucci brought the run in hitting a deep fly ball to right-field allowing Robilottto to tag from third and just barely beating the throw to home. Calandra followed Nucci with a single to left field and advanced to third on two wild pitches. Kropa successfully reached base for the third time in the game by walking on four straight pitches. After Kropa successfully stole second, Calandra was able to score from third as the catcher's throw was air-mailed into centerfield. Miike Corletta singled to centerfield, setting runners on the corners with just one out. Schmaltz grounded out to the second basemen for the second out, but Kropa scored on the play. Brian Harris broke through with his first hit in the afternoon, scoring Corletta and increasing the Pride's lead to 7-0.
But the Tufts offense came to life in the top of the fifth as they were able to take the lead, pushing eight runs across. Nate Bankoff led of the inning for the Jumbos, lining a single to right field. Corey Pontes followed with a single of his own to left-center field. Frank Petroskey then lined a single up the middle to plate Bankoff for their first run. Pitcher Ryan White seemed to lose control after this and walked the next two batters, plating Pontes and ending his afternoon on the mound. Chris Collard came in to pitch for the Pride and immediately gave up a two-run double to Sam Sager, cutting their lead 7-4. The big blow came off the bat of Bankoff with two outs as he crushed the go-ahead two-run homerun over the right-centerfield fence. The score after four and a half was 8-7, Tufts.
The Pride retook the lead in the bottom of the fifth, scoring three runs on two hits and two walks. Robilotto and Calandra reached base on walks and Kropa continued his strong day at the plate, lining a double into right-centerfield, plating Robilotto. Corletta lined out to centerfield, plating the go-ahead run in Calandra. Schmaltz followed, lining a single to right field, plating the 10th run for Springfield and giving the Pride a 10-8 lead.
The Jumbos added four runs in the top of the sixth, as they batted around for the second consecutive inning, making the score 12-10 in favor of Tufts. Ian Goldberg and Sam Sager highlighted the inning for the Jumbos with an rbi triple and double, respectively. Mike Cole came in to pitch for the Pride and held the Jumbos in check for the remainder of the frame.
The winning pitcher for Tufts was freshman right-hander Dan Eisenberg (2-0). Recording the save, his seventh, was sophomore Chris DeGoti with a scoreless seventh inning. For Springfield, sophomore lefthander Adam DeFelice was the losing pitcher (0-3).
Game #2 -- Tufts 12, Springfield 4

The Jumbos broke the game open in the fourth with its second eight-run inning of the doubleheader. Sager led off the inning with a single down the left field line. Matt Collins followed with a monster homerun to left field. Orlowitz continued the inning with a single to left field, and advanced to second when Alex Perry reached base after getting hit by a pitch. Alex Gryzmala laid down a successful sacrifice bunt, but reached base when the first baseman airmailed the throw into right field, allowing Orlowitz to score. The Jumbos strung together a few more base hits in the inning, including a pair of singles from David LeResche and Ben Walkley, as well as a double from Goldberg. At the end of three and a half innings, it was 10-0, Tufts.

Essential capabilities of content management are the abilities to view the 'change history' of a content item, to compare various versions with one another, and optionally, to revert to a previous version of a content item.
In this article, Darci Hanning discusses how to use versioning in Plone to examine the history of changes made to a content item, to preview and compare versions, and to revert to a previous version of a content item.Read Safely Manage Different Versions of Content with Plone in full
jQuery UI Accordion Widget - Part 2
The accordion widget is a robust and highly configurable widget that allows you to save space on your web pages by only displaying a certain section of related content at any one time. This is like a tabbed interface but positioned vertically instead of horizontally. It's easy for your visitors to use and it's easy for us to implement. It has a range of configurable properties that can be used to customize its appearance and behaviour. It also has a series of methods that allow you to control it programmatically.
In the previous part of this article, we looked at the structure of an accordion widget and its configurable properties. In this second part by Dan Wellman, we will cover the following topics:
- Built-in types of animation
- Custom accordion events
Simplifying Parallelism Complexity in C#
In order to simplify parallelism complexities and to avoid many concurrency pains, we must use the object-oriented capabilities offered by the C# programming language and design patterns. In this article, we will drastically simplify the creation of new parallelized code avoiding some advanced concurrent programming difficulties. Reading this article by Gastón C. Hillar and following the exercises we shall :
- Learn to combine single-threaded code with multithreaded code
- Use of object-oriented design patterns to simplify the creation of parallelized code
- Solve various problems to specialize in segmentation algorithms and achieve thread affinity
- Encapsulate multithreaded algorithms to create high-performance and safer independent pieces

Adding Interactive Course Material in Moodle 1.9: Part 1
In this three-part article series by William Rice, we will learn how to add Interactive course material in Moodle. Interactive course activities enable students to interact with the instructor, the learning system, or each other. Note that Moodle doesn't categorize activities into 'Interactive' and 'Static'. In Moodle, all activities are added from the Add an activity... menu after turning the editing on. We use the terms 'Interactive' and 'Static' as a convenient way to categorize the activities that Moodle offers.Read Adding Interactive Course Material in Moodle 1.9: Part 1 in full
jQuery UI Accordion Widget - Part 1
The accordion widget is another UI widget made up of a series of containers for your content, all of which are closed except for one. Therefore, most of its content is initially hidden from view. Each container has a heading element associated with it, which is used to open the container and display the content. When you click on a heading, its content is displayed. When you click on another heading, the currently visible content is hidden while the new content is shown.
It should be noted that the height of the accordion's container element will automatically be set so that there is room to show the tallest content panel in addition to the headers. This will vary, of course, depending on the width that you set on the widget's container.
In this article by Dan Wellman, we are going to cover the following topics:
- The structure of an accordion widget
- A default implementation of an accordion
- Adding custom styling
- The configurable properties
- Built-in methods for working with the accordion
JBoss Portals and AJAX - Part 1
JBoss portal blends the dynamism and rich functionality offered by AJAX with its strong portal architecture to provide users with choices for developing highly-functional portal applications. The latest portlet specification, JSR-286, provides an easy and intuitive approach to implementing asynchronous calls that was not possible in JSR-168. In the first part of this article, we will discuss the limitations of the current specification and walk through an example portlet to understand how AJAX can enhance portlets. The next part will talk about AJAX support for markup.Read JBoss Portals and AJAX - Part 1 in full

A Primer to AGI: Asterisk Gateway Interface
This article by Nir Simionovich is all about AGI (Asterisk Gateway Interface)—its working, its three types, and the different frameworks.
Asterisk AGI enables an IVR developer to develop IVR structures that are sometimes, bordering on the absurd, as applications tend to become more and more complex by using AGI. However, there are some scenarios where common dialplan practices are no longer applicable, and the use of an external logic is a must. Enter AGI!Read A Primer to AGI: Asterisk Gateway Interface in full
Custom Data Readers in Ext JS
Ext JS is an extremely powerful, cross-browser library, providing any developer with a beautiful, consistent set of tools for laying out browser-based applications. But there's a lot more here than just pretty boxes and grids. An application without data is really nothing more than an interactive static page, and our users are going to want to manipulate real information.

Someone in my family found this recipe for Block Party Beans years ago and it's been a winner ever since. My Aunt Colleen always makes this for the big family reunion around the Fourth of July.
This makes a big, big dish of beans! It's definitely enough for a yard full of hungry guests at any summer picnic and BBQ.
The flavor is a unique combination of something between old fashioned, slow-cooked baked beans and chili. Don't be put off by all the canned goods - it works!
Like chili, you can make it a day or two ahead of time. The only problem I've every experienced is finding a really big spot in the refrigerator for it!
Have a safe Memorial Day weekend.
Block Party Beans - for a crowd
1 lb. ground turkey
1 lb. ground beef
2 cups onions, chopped
1 cup celery, chopped
1 can (10 ¾ oz) condensed tomato soup, undiluted
1 can (6 oz.) tomato paste
½ cup ketchup
1 can (16 oz) green beans, (not french-style), drained
1 can (17 oz.) lima beans, drained
1 can (15 ½ oz) yellow wax beans, drained
1 can (15 oz) chili beans (pinto beans w/chilies - Mexican section), undrained
1 can (16 oz) pork & beans, undrained
½ cup brown sugar, packed
3 T Dijon mustard
In a very large pot, brown turkey and beef, drain off fat. Add onions and celery, and cook until vegetables are tender, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in tomato soup, tomato paste and ketchup. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes.
Add all remaining ingredients, stir well. Cover and simmer on very low heat for an hour, stirring occasionally. Don't let it burn.
This serves about 15-20 people as a side dish. If you need more, you can always add a can or two extra of the veggies or beans.
What are you cooking up this weekend?

Hope you can help. 2002 Chevrolet Suburban LT 1500 4x4. For a couple of weeks now the A/C hasn't worked, on Friday I had it re-gassed, there was only 2lbs in the system when there should have been 3lbs. Tried to get the A/C to cut in but no joy. The engineer said he had no idea why. I've bridge the terminals at the pressure switch and checked all the fuses and checked the relays (all OK) and can't get the compressor clutch to "Click in". Then somebody said, "Maybe it's because over the last month the temperature here in the UK has not been higher than 4 degrees, and having "Computer Climate Control the A/C wont kick in because the ambient temperature is too cold, they also suggested maybe I need to re-set something after re- charging.
Kind Regards
Happy Birthday! Hope you have a good day!
I've just done an axle oil change on my 2002 Suburban 1500 4x4 LT. I have the build sheet for it, it stated "Locking Rear Differential $252" however, when I drained the oil it was obvious the rear axle was a bog standard rear axle, which made me think the dealer had "Bumped" the original owner for $252,but when I dropped the skid pan, the front axle was I believe to be, according to the glove box info' a G80. My question is: Is this normal to fit a locker to the front axle?

"Rock of Ages," the Broadway musical that's also been made into a movie starring Tom Cruise, has landed in Las Vegas as the latest in a line of productions to be formatted for the Sin City stage.
Its website says the two-hour performance celebrates the "great rock music of the '80s." It's set along the Sunset Strip and tells the tale of two young people -- Drew (Justin Mortelliti) and Sherrie (Carrie St. Louis) -- who move to Los Angeles in 1987 to pursue their dreams.

Kate Bosworth: The Simple Life
On a single afternoon in the fall, Kate Bosworth visited one talented young American designer after another—each of whom was frantically preparing for the spring collections. Bosworth wore an electric-blue strapless dress with a single dart in the front, which is to say, a Jil Sander skirt by Raf Simons that the actress had hiked up to add yet more edge to an already edgy separate. On her feet were strappy flats from Chloé, and on her shoulder hung, a little demurely, an ivory leather Marc Jacobs bag that was an It bag: One of the hazards of being Kate Bosworth is that every bag you carry automatically becomes an It bag. That bag was tossed onto the long refectory table (itself suddenly an It table as a consequence) in the Chinatown studio of Proenza Schouler. At the Met's Costume Institute Gala six months before, Bosworth had knocked out Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez (and indeed le tout New York and le tout fashion world) with a silver Prada dress and marcel-waved hair—a look both fabulously flapperish and ultra-up-to-date. It was mutual friendliness at first sight, and the designers joined Bosworth and her boyfriend, James Rousseau, for an after-party drink at the Beatrice Inn. "They called the next day and asked if I'd be their date for the CFDA awards," she remembers. And she was their date, in a restrained feathered sheath, and they were the Designers of the Year of 2007 (jointly with Oscar de la Renta). Little wonder, then, that she found herself invited back to preview (and bring luck to) their spring collection, and she was happy to oblige: "The fashion world feels more normal to me when I'm with them."
While a very tanned and sinewy Erin ("Honey, I'm running 20 miles a week to prepare for a marathon") Wasson walked for the designers in a drum-majorette-on-safari suit, Bosworth carefully surveyed the photographs of the upcoming looks. Feathers featured, naturally, and plastic plumage, and chiffon cut to look like something feathery.
"Your CFDA dress took us in a whole different direction," Hernandez happily admitted. "I feel that feathers can sometimes be an older thing," Bosworth remarked. Hernandez answered, with a laugh, "We love taking stuff from an old lady's closet and giving it to you." He added, more seriously, "Everything is really personal for us—this transition between growing up and being young, being a grown-up and being wild."
Then it was time for Bosworth to transition out of the Proenza Schouler loft, jump into a car, and zoom off to Chelsea. There, at Derek Lam's studio, the actress admired a streamlined peasant dress in vivid emerald and a red silk dress that reminded her of "a little tulip." Lam became enamored of Bosworth after meeting her at a Tod's event in Los Angeles. "She's so down-to-earth, and yet she's already made an iconic movie." He was speaking, of course, of Blue Crush, in which the then nineteen-year-old actress put, one can safely say, a new spin on the Gidget story.
After Lam came the sisters Mulleavy, the Pasadena duo behind Rodarte. They were holed up in a Chelsea walk-up rented temporarily for the collections, and this was their first meeting with the starlet. Bosworth was clearly enchanted at finding herself in a room filled with dresses that looked like haystacks, or cherry blossoms at Mount Fuji, or cobwebs, or peach ballerina tutus that seemed to have sprung out of a Degas.
"Do you have a theme in mind when you start a collection?" Bosworth asked.
"Japanese animation," said the girls, and then everything made sense—including a pair of clawed and studded strappy platforms that Bosworth couldn't keep her eyes off.
"Every girl in your creations is a fairy, delicate and beautiful," she said, spellbound. Once out of the designers' earshot she said, "I would love to know how they were raised. They must have had an amazing childhood."
Last was Lim—Phillip Lim, a Polaroid of whom (doing a fitting with Bosworth) is permanently affixed to Bosworth's dresser in Los Angeles. His new collection, he explained, was based on images of people exiting airport buildings: "They leave with what they know and come back with something exotic added."
Exiting Lim's building, the actress was ecstatic. "I actually hate shopping. If I could go through the collections as I just did, that would be heaven. Phillip's clothes are so easy to wear, and for me that matters most." What she'll order from this collection is Lim's khaki skirt ("I need a good pencil skirt in my wardrobe"), a black jacket with ribbon sleeves, and a soft, slouchy bag in taxi-yellow leather ("a happy bag," says Lim). What Lim gets in return (apart from instant It-ness) is the peculiar clarity and unity that Bosworth brings to what she wears. If anybody thinks that she's just beautiful and game, they're failing to recognize the difference between, over here, a pretty girl in a pretty dress and, over there, a muse.
What these young designers look to Kate Bosworth for is, in a word, easiness. Neither directional and edgy like Chloë Sevigny nor regal and polished like Nicole Kidman, Bosworth is the embodiment of offhand, pared-down cool. Says Thakoon Panichgul, from whose spring collection she added his raspberry silk dance dress, "She really puts ease into clothes, even if they're grown-up clothes. It's the T-shirt generation that understands this idea, and I think what we have in common is this understanding—the juxtaposition of elegance and ease. I naturally design with this attitude in mind, and I think she dresses with the same attitude in mind." Kate Mulleavy puts it thus: "She is a magical hybrid—a mix between Nancy Drew, Sylvia Plath, and C. Z. Guest." To the young generation of American designers, who are importing European and Japanese techniques and subtleties and introducing them to the vernacular of American sportswear, this is an irresistible combination: Who better to carry off shrunken proportions with occasional voluminous counterpoints, and all of it somehow unforced and understated and able to be worn with a flat shoe? For the Rag & Bone show, for example, Bosworth entered a blizzard of paparazzi flashes in their deconstructed skinny tuxedo ensemble that somehow combined all-American sexy denim with a refinement you'd associate with back-in-the-heyday Charlotte Rampling or back-in-the-Hedi-day Dior Homme. (David Neville, one of the Rag & Bone duo, says, "I think she definitely embodies some of that boy-meets-girl, quite sassy quality. She can look really pretty, but she can also wear menswear pieces in the right way when they're tailored to the female form.")
It's no surprise, then, that Calvin Klein, the überbrand of effortlessness, should have plucked Bosworth from the Hollywood talent tree and dropped her into its new jeans campaign. Francisco Costa explains, "The hair is always beautiful, the makeup, the nails—she's never overdone. There is this casualness about her. I love her in T-shirts and jeans. I think she's a Lauren Hutton for today."
Hutton, of course, was fashion star first, movie star second. The reverse is true for Bosworth—and never more so than this spring, when she is to be seen in 21, Robert Luketic's adaptation of Bringing Down the House, Ben Mezrich's best-selling account of how a bunch of MIT students cleaned out Vegas. Her costar is Jim Sturgess, the rakish heartthrob from London who made such a splash in Across the Universe. The two became instant pals: "We met at the read-through, got drunk, went gambling, and have been friends ever since," he says. "Kate is one of the most down-to-earth, funny actors I've met." "I get along with a British guy," she says. "It's my very dry sense of humor."
The actress will also be seen in David Auburn's The Girl in the Park, in which she plays a troubled, lonely grifter who attaches herself to an even lonelier and more troubled Sigourney Weaver. Auburn says, apropos his thinking behind casting her, "I thought she was really good in Beyond the Sea. I liked her in a little movie called Wonderland. And I liked Blue Crush—she gave a real magnetic and wonderful performance in that movie. But what I hadn't seen from her was wit, and I was concerned about that. When I met her I found that wit was cascading off of her. She was throwing off sparks on every take…. She has a range that she's only begun to tap into." This winter she traveled to Australia to play a sword-wielding ninjette in Sngmoo Lee's Laundry Warrior, costarring Geoffrey Rush. And she and her great friend Nadia Conners, the director of the environmental documentary The 11th Hour, are currently developing Catherine Hanrahan's novel Lost Girls and Love Hotels into a feature film.
It's the trajectory of a 25-year-old learning her craft back to front, in the aftermath of fame's gigantic, crashing arrival. Bosworth was scheduled to go to Princeton—not going "was definitely a hard pill for my parents to swallow; I was the first person in my family to be accepted into an Ivy League school"—but then a surf movie and a boyfriend she stumbled into both suddenly went huge. "Orlando [Bloom] and I met when we were kids. Blue Crush hadn't come out. Lord of the Rings hadn't come out," says Bosworth over dinner at Omen, a Japanese country restaurant on the fringe of SoHo that's as modest and perfectly pitched as she. She's wearing a Balenciaga ikat-print wrap dress, flat sandals, and a tiny three-diamond late-Victorian ring from Fred Leighton. No! She's not engaged! (as the tabloids, her self-appointed biographers, might shriek it). But she does have a new man; more on James later. As for Bloom, Bosworth is appropriately wistful (he was, after all, the "first big heartbreak" and the "first love: You feel like it's the be-all and end-all") and appropriately insightful ("To put as little pressure on the relationship you're in is very important. I regret that it was too intense for both of us"). She and Bloom remain friendly, which again is very appropriate. "The fact that I'm very close with my past relationships is something I pride myself on. My mom is still close to her first husband. It's nice to be able to enjoy someone in a different form."
This wisdom has been hard-earned: For all her nonchalance and poise, Bosworth is not immune to ups and downs mental and physical. At the height of the media storm surrounding her split with Bloom, the coverage intensified still further when photographs of Bosworth looking gray and gaunt emerged. An intelligent and sensitive young woman was suddenly caught in outlandish narratives of anorexia and the perils of having a body in Hollywood. It was true, Bosworth says, that up to a dozen pounds had dropped off her petite frame; but it was also true that she was distraught about an illness in the family, and that "whenever anything happens that's very painful or stressful, we all lose weight—my mother, my aunt, my grandmother."
Bosworth is the only child of a Boston-based retail executive (dad) and a loving homemaker (mom). From them she receives her Yankee perseverance: "My personality is such that I will tread and tread on; I have a certain armor. I'll try to deal with things as well as I can until an absolute breaking point." Says her close friend Kristine Hardig, creator of the small lingerie line Tra-La-La, "She's the most generous person I know by far. She has no qualms about helping out and rolling up her sleeves. She will do anything for her friends." And Conners observes, "She is incredibly mature and responsible. When you look at the youth culture in Hollywood, she is completely outside all that. She has a different moral fiber." It is not irrelevant that Bosworth remarks with a laugh, "If I ever started drifting up, my father would rip me down so fast." What the tabloids gleefully suggested might be a case of values gone awry was in fact a case of the best values asserting themselves under duress. Luketic comments, "What is most striking is that Kate has remained this warm person I met six years ago. She has a great support system around her." Thus, on losing all that weight, Bosworth went to a nutritionist ("I honestly thought something was wrong with me") and, crucially, formed zero attachment to her undersize self. "I was concerned for my health and my fans, the public. I would have said, Please don't look at this as the standard of some kind of beauty or health."
Into this turmoil—September 2006, "a very dark time in my life"—came a handsome British musician/model, James Rousseau. It was Fashion Week, and Bosworth was hanging out with her friend Helena Christensen at Marc Jacobs's after-party at the Gramercy Park Hotel. (The two women share musical enthusiasms for Interpol and Razorlight, not to mention the usual girly banter: "We'll be in an old-folks' home in wheelchairs at 90," says Christensen, "and I'll be like,'Check out that guy in 4B.' ") When Rousseau appeared, Christensen "literally pushed them toward each other: Just go flirt! And they did." Bosworth recalls, "I looked like a mess. I always ask him why he didn't turn and walk away. He had no idea who I was. He said, 'You're an actress? You're not Kate Hudson, are you?' For a little while there he called me 'Miss Hudson' as a joke." Afterward, "we left and sang Dylan songs at Maggie's Pub. Sitting on a bar stool, having a beer. He saw the potential. He wanted to fix me in a little way. And to be quite honest, he did. He was such a ray of light in my life."
"James is amazing," says Lazaro Hernandez. "He's such a mellow, cool guy. He's not competing for any spotlight or anything. He's happy to sit back and watch and thinks it's really funny. He's very protective of her." As for Kate Bosworth, she sums it up in the style we've come to know as entirely her own. "He introduced me to the Fratellis," she says. "Simple lyrics, simple melody. I like simplicity."
