Clemson star receiver Sammy Watkins burst onto the national scene in 2011 with a record-setting performance.
After a fantastic freshman season that saw him catch 82 passes for 1,219 yards and 12 touchdowns, Watkins suffered somewhat of a sophomore slump with off the field issues and injuries limiting him to only 57 catches for 708 yards and three touchdowns. His season came to a disappointing conclusion when he was knocked out of the Chick-fil-A Bowl with a leg injury on the first play from scrimmage.
Clemson comes into 2013 as one if not they favorite to win the ACC especially with Watkins and quarterback Tajh Boyd back on offense. Watkins spoke with me by phone earlier this week.
Q: What is your focus going into spring ball?
Sammy Watkins: My focus is being consistent and working with all of the guys on becoming a physical player.
Q: Do you have any goals going into 2013?
SW: Not at all. I'm just trying to be a team player and trying to get to the next level. We beat LSU, now we're just trying to win a national championship and get on the bigger stage. I don't have any individual goals.
Q: What did you learn from that bowl win last season?
SW: Yeah, when you're out on that field, just give it your all because your career or season can be taken away with one play. … It was a great experience. We beat the No. 9 or No. 8 team in the country, we won the Chick-fil-A Bowl and we beat an SEC team so obviously we were pretty happy. I was disappointed that I got hurt, but at the same time, it was a team accomplishment.
Q: You and Tajh Boyd will be the focus of the offense this season, what's your relationship with Tajh like?
SW: We connected my freshman year and we did a little bit more my sophomore year. I think we still have a connection, we just have to work on some little things like timing and stuff like that, but most of the time he knows what I'm doing and I know what he's doing. I know what he's thinking at all times. We're still clicking.
Q: What did you learn from DeAndre Hopkins?
SW: He just worked hard at all times. He just gave his all and he finished plays … Every ball that came at him, he basically caught it. At every opportunity, he just made plays. He finished plays as well. A great blocker. Works hard in practice and that just carried on to the field. He was a great player all around.
Q: Best feeling – breaking off a long touchdown run on a reception or on a kickoff?
SW: I think a kickoff return actually because you can change the game. The momentum is coming to your side. The defense got a stop and the offense is ready to score again. So I would say kickoff return.
Q: Clemson opens the season against Georgia. How important is it for you and the team to make an early statement, especially against an SEC opponent?
SW: It's very important. They're a top ten team and we're going to be a top ten team. It's going to be a great ACC/SEC showdown. It might be [ESPN's] GameDay, but it's going to be a challenge to go against a great quality team and seeing what we can do in our first game. How disciplined and well-coached that we are and how we can play against a great, physical team. It will be a great challenge.
Q: Some people have mentioned you as a possible Heisman Trophy contender, is that something you think about?
SW: Man, honestly I don't. I have so many awards that I got my freshman year, that I honestly don't focus on that. I haven't seen those awards yet since I got them. They are back home at my parent's house up in a case, but I'm not focused on that. I'm more of a team goal-person, trying to win a championship, trying to win 12-games, trying to win the ACC … that's the type of person that I am. It's a good accomplishment that you win individual awards, but it's a better experience with your team.
Q: How important is it to become a leader on this team?
SW: It's big now because from my ninth to 10th grade, my freshman and sophomore years, I was a quiet guy. I just try to lead by example. Now, I have to take that role and speak up a little bit. Not speak as much, but when I have to speak … If I see a problem, I have to speak up and tell the guys, 'Let's go. Let's pick it up, man. You've got to watch film' and stuff like that. I wasn't that guy, but now I have to be. I have to transition into that guy and become a better leader. That's why last year, I was too quiet. I was too nonchalant, but now I have to step up and come out of my comfort zone.
Q: Has Dabo Swinney talked with you about that or is that something you've taken upon yourself?
SW: That's just something I took upon myself. I literally looked at the things that I didn't do and things that I should do. … I didn't approach the season with the same attitude that I did my freshman year. That's what I think I lacked last season. I wasn't complacent or big-headed, but I didn't prepare the right way.

Summary of Sister Carrie Summary of Sister Carrie Reviews for Sister Carrie An Excerpt from Sister Carrie
A landmark in American literature, presented in its complete and unexpurgated version. Dreiser's unsparing story of a country girl's rise to riches as the mistress of a wealthy man marked the beginning of the naturalist movement in America. Both its subject matter and Dreiser's objective, nonmoralizing approach made it highly controversial, and only a heavily edited version could be published in 1900. In this restored version, the truly revolutionary nature of Sister Carrie is made fully evident.

Nuclear Physics (NP)
Our office supports four major research facilities, and a number of smaller ones. These are located at national labs and research universities throughout the country, plus one in Canada.
The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) is also known as time machine where heavy ions like gold are smashed against each other at nearly the speed of the light to re-create the state of matter which only existed right after big bang. RHIC is also capable of accelerating and colliding polarized protons at high energy to study the spin structure of proton.
This 2.4 mile long racetrack-shaped collider consists of two accelerators where beams travel in opposite directions. Each of the two RHIC accelerators is primarily made up of thousands of superconducting magnets, which have to be operated at a temperature as low as 4 degree of Kelvin to obtain zero resistivity to the electric current. These two accelerators also cross each other like a giant pretzel to provide interaction points where heavy ions can be brought in to head-on collisions.
For more details regarding RHIC, please go to the RHIC homepage
In addition to RHIC, the entire accelerator complex for RHIC also includes a 200 MeV Linear Accelerator, a Tandem Van de Graaf of two 15 kV accelerators, the Booster accelerator and the Alternating Gradient Synchrotron where beams are accelerated and injected into RHIC.
More information can be found at Collider/Accelerator homepage
The Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility (CEBAF) at Thomas Jefferson National Laboratory is employed by scientists to probe the interior of the nucleus to study its properties. This powerful microscope allows scientists to take a close look at protons, neutrons as well as their constituents like quarks and gluons. This 7/8 mile long racetrack accelerator consists of two linear accelerators which are linked by arcs at either side of them. Bending dipole magnets at both arcs guide electrons to circulate through the two linear accelerators made up with superconducting accelerating structures at radio frequency 4 times to boost them to higher and higher energies.
More information can be found at CEBAF home page

As the world's first superconducting linear accelerator, the Argonne Tandem Linear Accelerator System (ATLAS) is a leading facility for nuclear structure and nuclear astrophysics research in the Unites States. The full range of all stable ions can be produced and accelerated to energies of 9 � 20 MeV per nucleon, and delivered to one of several target stations equipped with state-of-the-art instrumentation such as Gammasphere, the world's most powerful gamma-ray detector. ATLAS is used mostly to study the properties of the nucleus, essential information for understanding the core of matter as well as the evolution of stars. Since its inception, the ATLAS facility has continually been upgraded in order to be at the forefront of nuclear research. At present, the Californium Rare Ion Breeder Upgrade (CARIBU) is entering into operation. This facility provides for acceleration of fission fragments from a one Curie 252Cf source to study the properties of neutron-rich nuclei, particularly those of relevance for the astrophysical rapid neutron capture process responsible for the production of a large fraction of the heavy elements in the Universe. More information can be found at ATLAS home page
The Center for Experimental Nuclear Physics and Astrophysics (CENPA), also known as the Nuclear Physics Laboratory at University of Washington, engages in a broad program of experimental physics research, range from neutrino physics to precision experimental studies of gravity. The facility at CENPA includes an injector, a Van de Graaff electrostatic accelerator, and a superconducting linear accelerator. The research programs are either carried out at its own facility or at other laboratories or sites. Currently, CENPA is heavily involved in the neutrino research at Sudbury Neutrino Observatory in Canada, KATRIN direct neutrino mass measurement at Germany and Majorana project for search double beta decay at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory.

Situated in the center of the beautiful Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory campus, the sector-focused 88-inch cyclotron is the home for Berkeley Accelerator Space Effect Facility. Based on Dr. Lawrence's design of a sector-focused cyclotron, this 88-inch cyclotron has been in operation to provide from proton to heavy ions like uranium since 1962. During its long life, the 88-inch cyclotron has supported a very rich research programs like nuclear structure, fundamental interactions, radiation effects on living cells, microelectronics, optics and other materials. It has also been the center for technology development at LBNL and is currently engaged in the development of couple of major instrumentations like the next generation Gamma Ray Energy Tracking Array and third generation superconducting electron cyclotron resonance ion source. As one of the oldest accelerators, 88-in cyclotron is also home of numerous student training programs.
More information can be found at 88-inch Cyclotron home page.
The superconducting cyclotron at Texas A&M University, one of only six world wide, accelerates particles from hydrogen to uranium for nuclear-science research. Current studies cover a broad range from fundamental symmetries to reaction dynamics in heavy-ion collisions and the rates of nuclear reactions in stars. An upgrade of the facility is nearly complete, which will provide accelerated radioactive ion beams with energies not available elsewhere in the world. As part of the upgrade, a room temperature cyclotron (an 88" machine) has been refurbished and will be used to produce radioactive ions that will then be accelerated in the superconducting cyclotron. The facility includes three experimental areas that are equipped with spectrometers and detector arrays.

Love This Pearl Necklace!! I love this necklace with the pearl. It has the knotted appearance on the chain, and It looks great with a pencil skirt and boat neck top, but what I love best is it looks just as great with jeans and a cardigan. I have always loved the quality and appearance of The Limited Jewelry. April 15, 2014
Pretty necklace I really like this necklace. I have it in gold, and the gold is a good quality. It doesn't look cheap. I searched for this style of pearl necklace for quite a long time before finding it here, and I am really pleased with the purchase. The pearl is about the size of a cranberry or blueberry, not like a pea, if that helps anyone visualize it. November 21, 2013
Nice, delicate piece I got this for my mom, and I was afraid when I saw it that the big pearl wouldn't look good with the dainty chain. When she put it on, though, it looked great! The pearl looks a bit cheap, but the chain the looks very nice. The chain is so thin that I'm afraid it will break easily, but it's held out for two months so far. March 21, 2013
Very sweet I love this necklace. It is very sweet and simple, but dresses up just enough for work. I adore it. February 6, 2013
Pearl is big but still looks good I bought this item for my mom as a gift, and was afraid she wouldn't like it when I saw how big the pearl was. But when she put it on, it looked really nice. She wore it with a button-up shirt, so I think the presence of the collar and neckline helped. The chain is really beautiful. January 18, 2013
Simple and Classy This seems to be a go-to necklace for me during the week. It is a very nice length and can go with many different things. I love it. December 17, 2012
Very cute necklace I was looking for a simple short necklace to wear with a blouse that had an open neckline. I thought this looked nice online and it had good reviews. When I received it, it exceeded my expectations. I love the small beading detail on the chain. I also appreciate that you can adjust the length some based on your preference or what you are wearing it with (the pendant moves easily). I would definitely recommend it. It is a great piece to have to wear when you want to class up some of your basic wardrobe pieces. April 26, 2012
Nice I really like this necklace. I love the uniquely designed chain! Very dainty and nice :) March 13, 2012

Well that's eye-catching.
LSU has created a gold-purple-gold lighting scheme for the exterior of Tiger Stadium and it looks straight out of 1977.
Don't get me wrong, I like it. But it does bring to mind the dance floors from "Saturday Night Fever." Or an ELO concert.
Or maybe the final scene from "Close Encounters of the Third Kind."
The new lights are part of a larger renovation project at Tiger Stadium. Shine a little love, indeed.

Jane's Addiction were one of the most hotly pursued rock bands when they gained notice in Los Angeles in the mid-'80s. Flamboyant frontman Perry Farrell, formerly of the band Psi Com, had an undeniable charisma and an interest in provocative art (he designed the band's album covers). Jane's Addiction played a hybrid of rock music: metal with strains of punk, folk, and jazz. The quartet was originally comprised of Farrell, bassist Eric Avery, drummer Stephen Perkins, and guitarist Dave Navarro. The band's new album, The Great Escape Artist, will be released on Capitol Records October 18, 2011. Dave Sitek, whose production work includes groups such as TV on the Radio and Yeah Yeah Yeahs, plays bass on the new album. Let's take a journey back and check out their rockin' music videos.

2011 The Great Escape Artist
Check out the latest video from The Great Escape Artist, "End To The Lies" and the ultra-cool "Irresistible Force", they're amazing.
1990 Ritual de lo Habitual
Ritual de lo Habitual served as Jane's Addiction's breakthrough to the mainstream in 1990 (going gold and reaching the Top 20), and remains one of rock's all-time sprawling masterpieces. While the cheerful ditty "Been Caught Stealing" is the album's best-known track, the opening "Stop!" is one of the band's best hard rock numbers, propelled by guitarist Dave Navarro's repetitive, trashy funk riff, while "Ain't No Right" remains explosive in its defiant and vicious nature.
1998 Nothing's Shocking
Like most great bands, it was not a single member whose contribution was greater: Perry Farrell's unique voice and lyrics, Dave Navarro's guitar riffs and wailing leads, Eric Avery's sturdy basslines, and one of rock's greatest and most powerful drummers, Stephen Perkins, all made the album memorable. Nothing's Shocking is a must-have for lovers of cutting-edge, influential, and timeless hard rock.

Read our feature article about
Neighborhood Press
The year is 1919. The Great War has ended, Germany has surrendered, and Siegfried Rodernwiller returns to the wine country of Alsace to find it is now in French hands. A reluctant soldier, Siegfried feels nothing but relief as he makes his hungry way to the family home. His mother and brother are dead, but perhaps he and his father can make their peace and work together to grow their beloved wine grapes.
Siegfried is in for a shock. He arrives home to find the house stripped of most furnishings and his father dead, a suicide. The estate has been foreclosed. Siegfried has nothing except a letter from his American grandmother, urging him to join her in San Francisco. She has a job for him – as a vintner in California's growing wine industry.
Shift to the wine country north of San Francisco, where Alice Roye is struggling to keep Montclair vineyard going after her husband's death in the war. When Alice receives a summons from Tati, her late husband's grandmother, to join her in San Francisco and meet the new vintner Tati has arranged, Alice is skeptical. She is taken aback when the vintner turns out to be her husband's cousin, Siegfried, who looks enough like her late husband Bill to be a twin.
Tati has more up her sleeve. She wants Alice and Siegfried to marry, to keep Montclair from falling into the hands of Bill's brother, Hugh. And Tati knows something about Alice that Alice would rather keep hidden: her mother ran a "parlor house" in San Francisco, and Alice grew up among whores. Siegfried, alone and nearly destitute, agrees to his part in the plan. They will marry, and it will be in name only, and they will keep Montclair going.
But lonely hearts have a way of opening up to one another. Siegfried is a master vintner, and his love for the land and the grapes is tangible. He has his work cut out for him, though; through Alice's naivete, the equipment has been allowed to rot and the last harvest has spoiled in the casks. Alice joins forces with him, wondering if she's only being used so Siegfried can get at the land. And what will happen if the truth of her background comes to light? Siegfried wonders how he can ever tell Alice that he fought on the side of the Germans, however unwillingly. Meanwhile, to save the harvest, he's forced to lie to Alice.
Prohibition looms on the horizon – will all their work be for naught? And someone is trying to sabotage the crops and the vineyard. But who?
This is a solid and stylish first effort by the writing team of Karin Welss and Marian Gibbons, writing as Michaela August. The characterizations are finely-drawn and sympathetic, especially Siegfried, left utterly alone at the end of a war he never believed in and didn't wish to fight. His longing for Alice is palpable; and readers are in for a lovely surprise when they finally come together. Not every European male is a playboy.
Alice is likeable and intelligent; she's struggled hard to hang on, and she is smart enough to know when she needs help. Her panic at the thought of her past being exposed is understandable given the time frame, as is her reluctance to trust Siegfried with the only thing she values – her land.
The only fly in the ointment is the climax, where both Siegfried and Alice learn the "truth" and instantly assume the worst of each other without making any effort to communicate. It felt a bit contrived and took on overtones of a Big Misunderstanding plot device.
It's quickly apparent that the authors were meticulous in their research. I enjoyed the details of the winemaking process that were incorporated into the story, and seen through Siegfried's knowing eyes, it was an effortless presentation.
Sweeter Than Wine is a champagne-sweet debut, and will enchant fans of historical romance who like something a bit unusual. Let's toast small presses for bringing books like these to light.
--Cathy Sova

Thermal Energy Storage Benefits
GundakerSt. Louis, MO
Air conditioning during summer daytime hours is the largest single contributor to a building's energy cost. A hybrd cooling system, which includes CALMAC ICEBANK® thermal-energy storage tanks and chillers, makes and stores ice at night during off-peak times when utility rates are far less expensive and when cleaner baseload plants are used, while still providing a cool and very comfortable environment for occupants.
Chillers are rightsized to handle energy demand efficiently and store energy kicks in when needed.
CALMAC Thermal Energy Storage Systems let you shift the largest moveable portion
of your building's electrical load from High-Cost Peak Hours to Low-Cost Off-Peak Hours.
The blue-tinted areas show the shifted kWh, and illustrate the savings created by the purchase of off-peak power. Hypothetically, on a 600 ton, 300,000 square-foot building, where the cost of a kW is $10, saving 600 kW per month translates to a savings of $6,000.
Energy Storage benefits for the owner or architect
As an added benefit, all of CALMAC's ICEBANK energy storage tanks are covered by a 10-year limited warranty.

Denbighshire Public Event - 21 April 2009
Date of Event: 21/04/2009
The event was a discussion group and tea dance, involving an open debate where members were able to ask questions about the future options available for law-making powers in Wales, as well as stating their own opinions on the current law-making process. After the discussion group had finished, guests were invited to stay on for light refreshments and some ballroom dancing, led by local dance instructors Ros and Eric Lawrence.
Former ITV presenter, Arfon Haines-Davies chaired the event which was attended by nearly 30 people.
Cllr Raymond Bartley welcomed all attendees present to the event.
There was a strong feeling in the audience that the National Assembly for Wales should have more powers, however not all attendees agreed with this notion.
Some people felt that the National Assembly had not done a lot to support business and employment in North Wales with one person commenting:
The National Assembly for Wales does not support local jobs in North Wales unlike the Irish and Scottish governments.
Others disagreed and commented that the National Assembly has been widely beneficial to the people of Wales, with one attendee saying:
I believe that the Assembly has helped the Welsh people to progress and develop without taking from its culture and roots.
This event was part of a series of 22 public meetings being held across Wales by the Convention, who aim to engage with the Welsh public.

10 things to keep in mind before you let your children quit
Life is difficult. It's a given! We're born, we open our eyes, dad misinterprets our cry, mom puts the diaper on too tight, someone else drops our pacifier - and it begins.
But this is how life works. Challenge is built into the equation; learning requires patience; problem solving is a key element to fulfillment; obstacles come our way every day. World leader Winston Churchill gave a speech at his old school in the darkest days of WW2; he'd had a miserable time there and was considered a failure. He walked to the podium and surveyed the crowd of awe-struck students. "This is the lesson," he said. "Never give in. Never give in. Never, never, never, never – in nothing, great or small – never give in, except to convictions of honor and good sense…."
But we also live in this world of entitlement: "'I deserve this." "I want mine now!" "Children should have everything they want." "It's my responsibility to make my kids happy." "Satisfy me now!"
But, and experience proves this every time, pretty much everything worthwhile comes at the price of investment. It's not just that the reward is sweeter after the long haul. It turns out that the process of getting from A to B is intrinsically worthwhile - regardless of the payoff at the end. The key to success is perseverance.
However, there are times we and our children should quit something. We do the math and realize the best option is to do something else. But what are the guidelines? Here are 10 worth thinking about:
- "Quitter" is a tough label to shake. Breaking a promise is a big deal; failing to follow through should never be brushed off. Quitting is never small potatoes.
Tenacity is a strong word for life:Thomas Edison famously "failed" 10,000 times on his way to inventing the light bulb. What if he had simply quit along the way?
This is a big life-lesson opportunity. If children don't learn to follow through now, when they have our support, how will they become equipped to follow through as adults, when they must rely on what we taught them?
Make sure we understand the entire story! It doesn't matter if we're talking about network news, witnesses to an accident, or kids - the principle's the same: one source of information is never enough.
Trust takes a long line of completions to build, but it only takes one broken promise to dismantle.
Quitting on impulse is never the right choice. Have your child outline the problem and then explain exactly why they believe quitting is their #1 option.
Kids usually quit for the wrong reason. Try to get at the bottom of why your kids want to quit. "It's not fun anymore" may be code for "kids make fun of me."
Challenging experiences invariably build character; the easy way out typically builds something else. Want your children to be diamonds? The only way is to have them take the pressure sometimes.
The more often children quit before completing a task, the less likely they are to finish the next one. Quitting, like perseverance, can quickly form a habit. Challenge your children not to give up too easily.
- Sometimes your child needs to make a tough choice and walk away.Once in a while, quitting is simply the right thing to do. Maybe the coach is bad news; maybe your child really is overcommitted; maybe there are principles of character he or she cannot compromise. If this is the case, your child needs your support and your help to make a gracious exit.

(HealthDay News) -- Going out for a run, as with any form of exercise, requires some physical and mental preparation.
The American Council on Exercise offers this advice on what to do before you start running:
Allow time for a pre-run warmup and a post-run cool down.
Don't go beyond what's comfortable for you. As soon as you finish running, talking out loud for 30 seconds should be a challenge, but not very difficult.
Pay attention to your body's warning signs and cut back on intensity, duration or frequency when you feel sore.
Alternate running days with strength-training days for a balanced workout regimen.
Never increase your running mileage by more than 10 percent per week.

Comments On Dec 05, 2012:The tape will mostly just protect the frame from boot ware rather than offer extra grip. If you apply it with heat it acts as shrink wrap and will last longer.

Comments On Jun 21, 2012:The grip tape is long lasting, easy to apply, and looks nice. It is similar in texture to the traction pads on a skateboard. I was looking for more of a rubbery feel from grip tape, and what I got was sandpaper like instead. I have come up with several uses for it, but no longer put it on any of my bikes.

Fuel Pump Modification, Dana 44 Disc Brake Conversion, and a 3/4-Ton GM Axle For A CJ-7! Yes, That's Right We're Bad!

Fuel Pump Mods For TBI Chevy V-8 Swap
Q I have a 1983 GMC with a four-speed transmission and a carbureted 350ci V-8. I want to take the 350 out of a 1990 Suburban with the TBI and computer. I think I have it all figured out except the electric fuel pump and return lines. The truck has dual tanks, and the Suburban doesn't. Any easy fix would be greatly appreciated. Also if there are any other fine points I may be missing, please let me know, but I think it is a pretty easy swap.
Aaron Buck
Trenton, FL
A That is a tough question, and the simple answer is: an external electric fuel pump as close to each tank as possible; a double-throw switch so one switch would control each pump; a control valve to open and close the fuel to either pump in front of or after the pump; and another control valve on each return line. Manual valves could be used, but the hose routing to put the valves in a reachable location might be difficult, so electrical valves would probably be needed. If you found a heavy enough rated switch, you could use one for everything or mount relays.
While it is tempting to use all rubber line for ease of routing, I suggest you use hard metal line as much as possible, as over time the rubber will degenerate due to weather and heat.
Maybe one of our readers has a better solution?
Disc-Brake Conversion For 8-Lug Dana 44?
Q I have a Chevy Dana 44 eight-lug front axle with drum brakes that I want to convert to discs. My question is, can the drum/spindle assembly be disassembled (i.e., like the full-floater 14-bolt), and Chevy eight-lug rotors attached to them without modifications? If not, what will I have to do to make this axle work?
Scott Chester
Hawkinsville, GA
A I had to think on this one a bit, and after a bit of research, was still not very sure of my answer. My first thought was, "Why not just exchange the complete front end?" But I'm sure you thought about that, so there may be some kind of problem with doing a complete axle swap. I had to have some help on this, so I went to Stephen Watson, owner of Off Road Design (www.offroaddesign.com). I figured that if anyone had the answer, he would-and he gave me the following information.
"Honestly, I don't know if you can take the drum off the wheel hub and just put a disc on it. I would guess not, since the spacing is probably different along with possible problems with the thickness of the drum versus disc center, stud differences, etc.
"One problem with drum-to-disc conversions that I am aware of is that the spindle bolt pattern on the knuckle is rotated different from the disc knuckles. The issue is that the caliper mount rotates with the spindle bolt pattern, and it moves the caliper up to where it interferes with crossover steering arms-and I assume it also interferes with a factory steering arm to some extent.
"The safe answer is to find everything from the knuckles on a disc-braked Dana 44 or GM 10-bolt and swap it all on, if you want to keep that Dana 44 centersection. If not, just run the whole disc brake axle.
"If you start sourcing just wheel hubs, you'll have to be careful because there was a spindle change in the 1/2-ton trucks, and I think there was a similar spindle change in the 3/4-ton trucks in the early '70s. It's probably safer to just keep the spindles and hubs together when swapping.
"This is probably not what you want to hear, but not much to do about that. It's hard to put much money into conversion parts when there's a chance to find a complete axle with better parts for a couple of hundred bucks."
"Another plus to finding a later-model disc-braked axle to use, or for parts, is that you have a chance to get away from the external-spline locking hub that's not terrible, but is less desirable than the later internal spline version. The newer housing may also be a larger diameter tube, though I don't know that would be a fact.

'Premium' beef began with one man's tough steak
By HAROLD HARPSTER
No matter what breed, type or color of cattle you raise, there's no escaping the fact that the Certified Angus Beef program changed how all beef cattle are promoted and marketed. As with most paradigm-changing events, it began with the strong convictions of a few individuals.
It started in 1975 when Harold Etling bit into a bad steak. Having raised Angus since 1944, the Marshallville, Ohio, businessman (now deceased) was disgusted with the lack of beef-quality predictability.
Etling envisioned a rigid contract and inspection program ensuring the integrity of consistent, high-quality beef. He took his idea to American Angus Association board member Fred Johnson (also deceased) of Summitville, Ohio.
Together with Kansas producer Robert Giess, Johnson brought Etling's ideas to the full board that same year. After a few months of research and development, Mick Colvin, AAA regional manager, was brought in to carry CAB into the marketplace.
Key Points
• A bad steak in 1975 spurred the vision of today's CAB program.
• Three breeders from Ohio and Kansas forever changed beef marketing.
• Black hides, not just Angus genes, pull the premiums.
In 1976, USDA changed beef-quality grading standards, allowing beef with less marbling to qualify as USDA Choice. That move just strengthened AAA board resolve.
Bob VanStavern, an Ohio State University emeritus meat scientist, led development of the quality standards necessary for that consistent, positive beef-eating experience. The first pound of CAB was retailed in 1978.
"No" was the most common word Colvin heard, as CAB's now-retired executive director tried to convince packers, restaurants, retail stores and even producers that the idea would fly. That fall, USDA abruptly halted the program, based on negative feedback from producers of other breeds and plant inspectors not wanting extra duties.
Intense work by Colvin, Johnson, C.K. Allen and others got the program reinstated six months later. By 1995, CAB sales passed 1 billion pounds. In 1997, sales reached 1 million pounds per working day. In June of 2007, monthly sales topped 56 million pounds.
Has CAB demand cooled?
Hardly! 2010 ended with 17% growth over the previous year. CAB President John Stika reports that sales October 2009-September 2010 were 777 million pounds — more than the program sold in its first 10 years of existence and 114 million pounds over the previous 12 months.
In the tight economy, you might think growth would strongly favor economy cuts. But it was largely balanced: strip steaks and tenderloins up 16%, end meats up 16.1%, ground product up 24.3% and value-added deli items up 34%.
Retail sales still accounted for 52% of total sales. Today, CAB has more than 14,000 licensees around the world.
At the farm level, CAB impact is hard to ignore. Registrations for purebred Angus cattle continue to grow. Today, more than 60% of the nation's cow herd has an Angus influence.
Harpster is a Penn State University animal scientist and a beef cow-calf producer.
What qualifies as Certified Angus Beef
Certified Angus Beef, or CAB, carcass specifications have been enhanced over the years. In 2006, for instance, the yield grade cap was replaced with more specific limits on rib-eye area, carcass weight and external fat thickness. Currently, the 10 specs are:
1. Marbling must be modest or higher.
2. Medium or fine marbling texture
3. "A" (youngest) carcass maturity
4. 10- to 16-square-inch rib-eye area
5. Hot carcass weight of less than 1,000 pounds
6. External fat thickness of less than 1 inch
7. Superior muscling (to restrict dairy cattle influence)
8. Practically free of capillary ruptures (ensuring a visually appealing steak)
9. No dark-cutters (to ensure bright, visually appealing color)
10. No neck hump exceeding 2 inches (safeguarding against zebu-type cattle having more variability in tenderness),
The animal must be verified as at least 51% black-hided or enrolled in AngusSource, a USDA verification program for Angus-sired calves. The program documents source, group age and a minimum of 50% Angus genetics. A second-tier program called Gateway verifies source and group age only. Once calves are enrolled, they're identified with an official tag as certified.
Black-hided loophole
A number of other breeds have infused "black genetics" into their purebreds. Consequently, resulting CAB beef may have little relation to the Angus breed. Proponents counter that in the final analysis, the high-quality eating experience is preserved regardless, as long as the 10 carcass criteria are met.
BLACK BULL? Not all that's black is Angus. Simmental breeders, for example, have quickly shifted genetics to capitalize on black genes.
