Better, Faster Shifts. Get rid of the sloppy feel of your stock shifter with a Steeda Tri-Ax short throw shifter. The Steeda Tri-Ax shifter has a unique design that will make your shifts faster, more precise, and even more comfortable. Make missed shifts a thing of the past with the Tri-Ax.
Innovative Design. The Steeda Tri-Ax uses a number of unique design features to provide the best shifting experience possible. The factory steel mounting rail is replaced with a substantial billet beam for more positive location. Then, to firm up shifter feel, upgraded bushings are supplied to further reduce deflection under hard shifting. And Steeda's Tri-Ax for the S197 has a tensioned internal spring so you'll never miss 3rd gear again.
Legendary Steeda Quality. The Tri-Ax base, handle, and beam are all made out of billet aluminum to be extremely lightweight. This shifter is also made using CNC machining for a precision fit.
Application. This Steeda Tri-Ax shifter is designed for the 2005 to 2010 Gt and Bullitt Mustangs with the TR-3650 manual transmission. Shift knob not included.
Technical Note: Compatible with stock GT shift knob; stock knob is not threaded but has a nylon insert which grabs the threads when twisted on. Bullitt models will require a new 12mm x 1.75 threaded shift knob, as the stock Bullitt Knob has an incompatible 12mm x 1.25 thread pattern.

text: I have a Kenmore UltraSoft 480 water softener, model number 635-388480. I am getting an error code, error 3, on the screen. I have tried using the manual and troubleshooting myself. I have gotten up to recharging it. It did not go into the fill cycle. It said backwash which the manual tries to explain but I get a bit lost at that point. I never say water flow into the brinewell. It then kept making a loud running water sound. I unplugged it and the sound continued. I plugged it back in and it started to recharge again but had no remaining time on it. It then said fill but still no water was running into the brinewell. I left it alone and when I returned it had error 3 on it again. Today I unplugged it again and plugged it back in and after a few minutes it started making that loud running water sound and got stuck there. I called Kenmore and he told me to push in the bypass thing. He said to replace these things in this order. First, the switch, then the wire harness, then the control panel. Sears said I can not return parts if they are not the right ones so I would like to know what is wrong before I replace it myself. The softener did not cost that much to pay the ridiculous fees that they will charge me to come out and then fix it. I try to do everything myself if I can. I was advised by the parts department to come to this site and have someone help me diagnose the problem before I buy the parts.

great food with a view – We greatly enjoyed our dinner here, sitting outside on the Tampa waterfront . I was offered tastings of 2 wines, in order to make a choice for dinner. The seafood was fresh and delicious. Sea scallops were huge, sweet and seared beautifully, served over home made noodles with mushrooms and fresh ricotta. The flight of appetizers we selected-salmon carpacchio, oysters on the half shell and prawns were beautifully presented and seasoned perfectly. The service was slow in taking our order and presenting the bill, but the waitress was apologetic and coffee after dinner was on the house. Overall, a lovely dining experience in Tampa, recommended.
These Guys Hate Life – Stallones is located on the over priced and over snobbish Isle known as Harbor Island. I wonder if thats why these guys are such jerks? You walk in and they do not say hello and they do not offer you assistance. They just look at you. The food, however, is very good. They offer excellent Meatball and Chicken Parm sandwhiches and solid pizza, far better than most Florida joints. They just simply dont like their jobs!

"I used this card as a joint christmas card and birth announcement and it was perfect! I included birth announcement on the front of the card and than a christmas greeting on the back. The card is beautiful and exactly what I was looking for."
"I knew once I saw this card I had to order it, and was I impressed on how wonderful it came out! I love the option of putting more pictures on the back of the card, so even though there is only room for one pic on the front, I chose to put the three pic layout on the back! Everyone that I sent this card to loved the quality and asked me where I got it from. I did my son's baby shower invitations from Tiny Prints as well, and those were wonderful too! If you want 5 star quality, pick this birth announcement card!"
"So sweet! Announcements turned out beautifully. The colors in person are even better than on screen. Very sweet and simple. We used the "vintage" effect offered on our photo and it seemed to enhance the style of the whole announcement. Also shipping arrived faster than on conf receipt! Whole experience was five stars!"
"This is a beautiful card to announce our daughter's birth. All our friends and family loved them. Would have liked to have white as a text color for the details and to have the option of "she's arrived" on the back no matter what color is chosen on the back."
"The card is just lovely! I got the matte paper and had it cut with rounded edges. Talking to a customer service rep about the image was also incredibly helpful. Great company, excellent product, outstanding customer service. Order the card! (mine arrived DAYS before I expected it to)"

Legal Scholar Appointed Director of Burkle Center
Kal Raustiala assumes leadership of UCLA's primary academic unit that fosters interdisciplinary research and policy-oriented teaching on the role of the United States in global cooperation and conflict, and military, political, social and economic affairs.
Published: Friday, December 15, 2006
By Judy Lin
Kal Raustiala, an expert in international law who studies and teaches about international cooperation and global governance, has been named director of the UCLA Ronald W. Burkle Center for International Relations.
As director of the Burkle Center, Raustiala assumes leadership of UCLA's primary academic unit that fosters interdisciplinary research and policy-oriented teaching on the role of the United States in global cooperation and conflict, and military, political, social and economic affairs.
"We are very fortunate to have a scholar and academic innovator of Kal's stature in this role," said Ronald Rogowski, interim vice provost for international studies and dean of the UCLA International Institute, who announced the appointment. "His leadership will strengthen the center's interdisciplinary focus and expand its ongoing efforts to create better understanding of global issues."
Raustiala holds appointments in the UCLA School of Law and the UCLA International Institute — the home organization of the Burkle Center and a unit within the College of Letters and Science.
"Professor Raustiala brings exciting new energy and a fresh perspective to the leadership of the center," said Patricia O'Brien, executive dean of the UCLA College of Letters and Science. "I am confident that Kal will make the center an even more visible and important source of expertise and commentary on the critical issues facing our nation and our world today."
Raustiala has been a fellow in the Foreign Policy Studies Program at The Brookings Institution, a Peccei Scholar at the International Institute for Applied Systems in Austria, and a fellow in the Program in Law and Public Affairs at Princeton University's Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs. He is a member of the Pacific Council on International Policy and the American Society of International Law and has served as a consultant on legal matters to numerous international organizations.
Raustiala has written extensively about global legal issues. His article on international agreements in the American Journal of International Law won the 2006 Francis Deak Prize from the American Society of International Law.
The Ronald W. Burkle Center for International Relations
The UCLA Burkle Center (http://www.international.ucla.edu/bcir) supports research initiatives and sponsors innovative teaching programs on global studies. Among the center's most prominent programs is the Burkle Forum, which brings to campus internationally renowned political leaders, policy-makers and analysts to present their perspectives on global issues.
Recent Burkle Forums have featured a number of high-ranking and influential former government officials, including President Jimmy Carter, Secretaries of State Warren Christopher and George Shultz, Mexican Foreign Minister Jorge Castañeda, Secretaries of Defense William Cohen and William Perry, Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volker, Russian Finance Minister Yegor Gaidar and Special Middle East Coordinator under President Clinton Dennis Ross, as well as Nobel laureates Shirin Ebadi and Robert Mundell, current State Department Policy Planning Director Stephen Krasner, syndicated columnist Thomas Friedman, scholars Alan Dershowitz and Edward Said, and ambassadors from a dozen countries.
In September 2006, Gen. Wesley Clark, former supreme allied commander of NATO and author of "Waging Modern War," joined the Burkle Center as a senior fellow. Clark will teach seminars, publish opinion articles and commentaries, and host the center's inaugural conference on national security. The first conference, to be held March 6–7, 2007, will explore the emerging challenges of nuclear weapons in the 21st century. Beginning next year, Francisco Gil Diaz, Mexican finance minister in the outgoing Fox administration, will also join the center as a senior fellow.
The Burkle Center also sponsors innovative teaching programs at UCLA, including a seminar taught by former Secretary of State Warren Christopher on international flash points and an undergraduate course taught by UCLA law professor Richard Steinberg on international law and politics. The center also supports student-led initiatives, such as the UCLA Darfur Action Committee and the UCLA Undergraduate International Relations Society.

SACRAMENTO — "Living in parallel universes," is how Senate leader Darrell Steinberg describes it. Gun control and gun rights advocates "talking past each other."
Emanating from different cultures, incapable of agreeing on how to make us all safer from firearms.
Their opposite views were in full voice last week in the Legislature during a marathon 10-hour committee hearing — longest anyone could remember — on gun bills.
- Bio | E-mail | Recent columns
Unlike in Washington, where gun control forces couldn't muster enough strength in the U.S. Senate to pass legislation expanding background checks, a state Senate committee in Sacramento approved eight bills to strengthen California's already stringent firearms regulations.
Unfortunately, without universal background checks nationwide — not only in gun stores, which already is the law, but at gun shows and via the Internet — California is vulnerable to Wild-West dealing in other states.
Criminals and mental misfits can buy virtually any weapon they want at a Nevada or Arizona gun show and cart it into California, circumventing this state's tough background checks.
Actually, in Washington there was solid majority support for expanding background checks — 55 Senate votes. But because of that chamber's arcane rules born of undemocratic filibusters, the bill needed 60, or a 60% supermajority.
In Sacramento, where Democrats overwhelmingly rule, most gun legislation can be passed on a simple majority vote.
One exception is a bill to speed up the confiscation of guns from Californians who bought them legally, but later were disqualified because of a violent crime, a restraining order or mental illness. There are roughly 20,000 people possessing around 40,000 firearms who aren't supposed to have them.
The bill, SB 140 by Sen. Mark Leno (D-San Francisco), requires a two-thirds vote in each legislative house. It would appropriate $24 million to hire enough agents to seize the weapons.
But despite opposition by the gun lobby — it objects to using money from background check fees paid by gun buyers — the measure has been sailing through the Legislature. It passed the Assembly 57-10 last week, with only Republicans voting "no."
This bill, however, offers a clear example of political polarization in the Capitol.
Republicans proposed a perfectly sensible amendment that would have required all the illegal weapons to be confiscated in one year, rather than over three as mandated by the bill. Democrats quickly tabled the amendment, cutting off debate.
"If we're going to be serious about dealing with felons with guns, then we need to take advantage of the money and make it a priority," Assemblyman Donald Wagner (R-Irvine), the amendment's author, told me.
"A lot of folks on my [GOP] side want to do something. They don't want to just be saying 'no.' But they didn't even let us debate….
"I won't say it's impossible to come together. And I won't say one side is entirely right and the other is entirely wrong. But both sides need to get beyond their hardened positions of the past."
Hardened positions, however, dominated the long meeting of the Senate Public Safety Committee. Republicans followed the gun lobby in opposing every measure. Democrats passed all of them on party-line 5-to-2 votes.
"There's a difference between opposing every bill and your saying, 'We would support it if you did this or that,' " Steinberg, a Democrat from Sacramento, finally vented to gun lobbyists. "It would help your credibility."
The committee approved bills to:
•Prohibit the sale of semiautomatic rifles that hold detachable magazines. SB 374, Steinberg. The senator called them "mass killing machines."

10 Helpful Tips For Bending The Masses to Your Will
If you're anything like me, you're constantly, pants-soilingly furious that the world hadn't given you your due. "Damn you, you motherfuckers!" I scream every morning at the world, or more accurately, the portion of the world visible from my front door - which includes a length of sidewalk and a day care across the street. "If there was any justice in the world, I'd be carried around on the backs of people like you," I tell fellow commuters at the bus stop, who often concede my point and offer to make space for me as a sort of token reparation. "When I'm in charge, pants will be an option, and not the chains of your tyranny," I tell the human resources director, again every morning. But unlike you, with your Cheetos stained fingers and Cheetos stained private parts, I've actually got the tools to correct these deficiencies in the world, to bend these simpler minds to appreciate the glory I have hammered out with my brain. Although there's some ethical issues with this (it's completely unethical, that's the main one) I feel I've learned enough from my experience to share these techniques of manipulation and coercion with you. Whether you use these persuasion techniques to start your own cult of personality, or merely get a date, I wish you well on your journey.
Also, they hate the son of Hercules.
How the world works is this: it doesn't, because it is full of incredibly stupid people. Laying out a rational, well reasoned argument to an average American is like wearing a condom while eating at Burger King - it's ineffectual and makes everyone present confused and lose their appetites. The kind of mind that looks at a can of Axe Bodyspray and thinks "Hmmm, that's not a bad idea," is completely immune to the powers of evidence and logic. An Example: "Hey, friend, would you like to listen to me for a second? Worry not, you can continue to eat your tacos while you listen. How about you join me in my effort to make the world a better place. As you can see by the way my shoes have shoelaces, I've got a better handle on life than you do. This could really be a win-win for both of us."
Look at these gorgeous motherfuckers. These shoes could run your life better than you.
Unfortunately good public speaking skills don't come easy, and may be impossible for some people (Floridians) to learn at all. A larger problem, again, is the people themselves, with their corn-like intelligences. While the will be readily convinced while you're actually talking, as soon as you go away, they're apt to forget everything you said, and return to rooting around in their own assholes, or whatever they were doing before you started talking. An Example: "Attention friends! I'm looking for smart, intelligent, well-odored people, just like yourselves, to join me on an exciting adventure. Look at my teeth. LOOK AT MY TEETH. See the honesty and smell the future people!"
"I can seriously bite a pencil in half."
An Example: "CINDY YOU STUPID COW! In my basic PC skills class, you will follow my instructions to the letter! Just like Sandra is doing. Very good Sandra. Not like Cindy. Between you and me, I think her parents nursed her with kerosene. Yes I know that more than just you and me heard that."
Sometimes I'll douse a few in LSD and serve them to schoolchildren.
Lack of stretch pants?
Also no talent and resources and charm? Even if you did possess these characteristics, it's hard work. I've been working on this myself for a few years, in the form of a column at a middle-brow comedy site. Building your audience isn't easy, and thanks to setbacks like that one mass suicide in 2009, it's slow work, burdened by tedious, transparent self promotion. Beyond that, the only other advice I can offer is to read my column every week, and write the url for it (http://www.cracked.com/blog/author/chris-bucholz/) on various surfaces around your home town.
An Example: "Beyond that, the only other advice I can offer is to read my column every week, and write the url for it (http://www.cracked.com/blog/author/chris-bucholz/) on various surfaces around your home town." - Chris Bucholz, February 1, 2011
Highly visible tattoos are also acceptable.
Except for the people who make the bags of course. They envy no man.
Of course from a strictly technical sense, this isn't bending someone to your will, as much as it is securing temporary, conditional cooperation. To get these people in your camp permanently, you're going to need a steady supply of money to get them addicted and then dependent on your largess. If you have that media empire already, this shouldn't be too tricky. Alternately try leveraging an initial bribe to access the public treasury. This is called a kleptocracy, and there are absolutely no downsides to one, so long as you're the one perpetrating it. An Example: "Do you think that if there were three $20 bills in that ditch over there you could go have a good look at them for about 15 minutes, with your back turned to this container truck full of thorium? That's a sport. There might even be a fourth twenty if you look long enough."
Just stare at the sky for a few more wheels and everything will be OK.

For a college girl with limited space and lots of jewelery this is a must have. It's keeps everything together.

I am not happy with the jewelry holder's material. It is made cheaply. I got a jewelry holder from another place and it is superbly made and much more sturdy. I also like the material more. I made end up giving the Aspire jewelry holder to Good Will.

I was so tired of trying to find my jewelry and when I got this it was just what I needed. I holds so much and I can see at a glance what I want to wear. I just wish I had ordered it a long time ago. Thanks

Very nice, exactly what I expected. Good size for the jewelry for which granddaughter wanted to use it. Mostly better for bigger earrings, smaller bracelets, necklaces that aren't too big or chunky.

Dahlonega, GA – North Georgia College
& State University played to a tie at the half, but the
Tornados of Bravard College used a late goal to deny the Saints
their first home win of the season, taking a 2-1 victory Tuesday
evening at the Soccer Complex.
Brevard (3-9-1) got on the board first in the 17th minute as Henri Erti took a pass from Jusse Halonen in the box and sent a shot past a diving Rade Tanaskovic to give the Tornados a 1-0 lead.
The Saints would answer right back however, scoring 20-seconds later on a Terry Gibbs goal to tie the game. Bradley Rose tallied the assist for North Georgia as the game went into the half knotted at a goal apiece.
The game remained tied until the 83rd minute when Jussi Halonen dribbled past a pair of North Georgia defenders and sent a shot inside the left post to give Brevard a 2-1 advantage, a lead they would never relinquish.
The Saints had a pair scoring chances in the final five minute, but Tornado goalkeeper Jerry Hatsady kept the Saints from finding the net. Hatsady tallied five saves for Brevard, while Tanaskovic stopped five shots for the Saints.
The Saints outshot Brevard 14-8, and had an 8-3 lead in corner kicks.
North Georgia (5-8, 0-2 PBC) returns to action this Saturday, hosting Clayton State University in a Peach Belt Conference clash at 3:30 p.m.

Every single time I have spent an extended period of time out of the water, either due to health/injury or other RL problems, when I finally get back to business I feel SO bad in the water, and get tired so easily, that I always vow fervently NEVER AGAIN to spend that much time out of the water! So I try to remember that feeling whenever events conspire to keep me out of the water for extended periods.
You know you will be competing again eventually even if the specifics are uncertain right now. Kicking, streamlining, SDKs aren't a lot of fun if that's all you can do. But even a little bit of time spent in the water regularly can go a long way to maintaining some portion of your swimming fitness. Next year you are at the "bottom" of your age group and every little bit you do now will help you be faster next year.
And who knows, maybe your kicking and SDKs will improve A LOT and give you another weapon in your arsenal when you enter your next meet.

Indian Treaties
In October 1865 hundreds of Plains Indians camped on these prairies to
negotiate peace with U.S. government officials. Among them were Chiefs
Black Kettle and Seven Bulls (Cheyenne), Little Raven and Big Mouth
(Arapahos), Rising Sun and Horse's Back (Comanches), Poor Bear (Apache),
and Satanta and Satank (Kiowa). Federal commissioners with great
prestige among the Indians were General Harney, Jesse H. Leavenworth,
Christopher "Kit" Carson and William Bent.
Both sides wanted to end the hostilities on the Plains. The commissioners also hoped to reach an agreement that would make travel on the western trails safer and further restrict Indian lands. Native Americans sought unrestricted hunting grounds and reparation for the Sand Creek Massacre suffered the year before by Black Kettle's band.
The negotiations resulted in treaties that gave the Indians reservation lands south of the Arkansas River and denied them their hunting grounds north to the Platte River. Peace was proclaimed; however, the treaties were never ratified by the U.S. Congress and both sides later charged the other with violating the agreement, resulting in further conflict. There is a monument one mile west.

CONCORD, N.C. — Kevin Harvick and Richard Childress are NASCAR's odd couple. Their relationship would be "complicated," if they were using Facebook terms.
Harvick has filed for divorce, and is ready to see other people, but not quite yet.
Somehow it's all working out. Witness the Budweiser-infused victory celebration late Sunday night, when Harvick rallied to score his second Sprint Cup victory of the season at the Coca-Cola 600 on a bizarre night we shall label "Cablegate."
"Happy" Harvick is indeed living up to his nickname. He is in seventh place in the Chase standings, with two victories. It's a unusual resume for a lame-duck driver. Harvick will leave Richard Childress Racing this season to join his buddy Tony Stewart on his team in 2014. Ironically enough, the Stewart-Hass Racing team has struggled this season, while Harvick remains a solid contender for the title.
A reporter zinged Stewart's team in the post-race press conference, asking "You've won two of the last four races. Stewart-Haas is running like a bag of [bleep]. Are you regretting the decision you made?"
Harvick laughed heartily before replying: "You look at what we're doing and we're focused on this year. We go out and race week to week, do the things that we do to try to win races, win a championship. Whatever happens in the future, we'll work on some other time. Right now we're working on winning next week's race, no matter who is running like a bag of [bleep]."
It's a tribute to the professionalism of Harvick, Childress and crew chief Gil Martin that there are no rumblings in the pits other than the roar of the engine in Harvick's No. 29 Chevy.
Harvick, on two fresh tires, easily overtook Kasey Kahne on a late, 11-lap restart after Kahne's crew chief, Kenny Francis, chose not to pit when a caution came out late in the race. Kahne was second, followed by Kurt Busch and Denny Hamlin.
It was a crushing night for Kahne, who had the best car in the field, leading 156 laps.
"We had a great car from the top of the green," Kahne said. "It was definitely our race to lose. We thought some of the guys would stay out and that would be a big enough buffer. It didn't happen. That was the end of our race."
The first quarter of it was something else, too.
An overhead TV camera cable snapped, forcing race officials to stop the race for nearly a half-hour to clean up the debris and allow pit crews to fix the damage on some cars.
The cable -- set up by Fox Sports -- fell over the grandstands in Turn 4, injuring 10 fans, including three who were transported to an area hospital for further evaluation before being released.
Three drivers also took a hit, including Kyle Busch, who was leading the race after 123 laps when the cable tore into his right fender. The cars of Mark Martin and Marcos Ambrose also suffered damage.
"I've never seen anything like it," Kahne said. "I came around Turn 4, saw it wrapped around Kyle's car, hit mine. I thought I was seeing things, there's no way there could be a cable on the racetrack."
NASCAR and Fox officials will discuss the incident before deciding whether to use the overhead camera technology again. It most likely would come into play again for the Coke Zero 400 at Daytona International Speedway in July.
A snapshot of the Harvick-Childress relationship would present no such convoluted circumstances.
"You know, we're in a business world," Childress said. "In a business world things happen, changes happen. You do everything you can in the business world. Like I told Kevin, I wish him the best of luck at the end of the year, but right now we got a job in front of us."

Rifle Wraps up Final Home Match of Season
DAHLONEGA, Ga. – The University of North Georgia mixed rifle team hosted two NCAA Division I teams on Saturday, Feb. 2 to close out its home schedule. Competing against the Saints were the No. 9 University of Memphis and No. 13 North Carolina State University.
The three position smallbore (.22) event was contested in the morning with N.C. State posting a score of 2269/2400 points to sneak past Memphis' 2250 by 19 points for the event win. The Saints recorded posted a 2160 to place third.
Contributing to the team score for smallbore were freshmen Casadie Bragg (549/600) and Cadet Kyle Bailey (546), along with sophomores team captain Cadet Luke Duncan (542), and team co-captain Chris Tam (523).
In the afternoon, the teams competed in standing air rifle with Memphis taking the event win with a 2329/2400 score, just six points ahead of N.C. State (2323), while UNG claimed third with 2274 points.
Combining for the team score for the Saints were Bragg (580/600), sophomore Cadet Chris Tiller (566), freshman Sara Howell (565) and Duncan (563). Howell tied her personal best, while freshman Cadet Andrew Abernathy posted his new personal best (560). Bragg's excellent score placed her fifth in a very strong field of competitors from the Division I schools.
N.C. State was able to hold off Memphis for the upset win in the combined aggregate, 4592 to 4579. UNG finished third with 4434 points overall.
The Saints return to action this weekend with a match at Virginia Military Institute on Saturday, Feb. 9.

How we can [actually] change the world
We are excited to announce that our transformative educational programs, including The Awakening The Dreamer Symposium, are now a part of Up to Us – our new educational pathway designed to inspire and educate a critical mass of conscious, committed people working together to bring forth a just, thriving and sustainable future.
The Pachamama Alliance and its workshops were inspired by a request from our indigenous partners who issued a call to "change the dream of the modern world" and transform the culture of over-consumption driving the destruction of the rainforest.
In response, we launched the Awakening the Dreamer Symposium in 2005 – a half-day transformative journey that educates people on the challenges and possibilities of this moment in time.
Now, in the Fall of 2013, we are excited to introduce our community to Up to Us – a transformative pathway that unleashes our power as global citizens.
Up to Us builds on the international success of the Awakening the Dreamer Symposium by providing people a continued pathway of engagement to dive more deeply into the issues and possibilities presented in the Symposium.
The Awakening the Dreamer Symposium — a half-day transformative journey that educates people on the challenges and possibilities of this moment in time.
Game Changer Intensive — an interactive, online course to transform the way you relate to the world and prepare you to take action. The Intensive is about both personal and planetary transformation: who we need to be and what we need to do at this momentous time in human history.
Action Circles — small groups of people committed to living the change they would like to see in the world. Members meet regularly to educate themselves on social change issues and other topics of interest, connect with one another, and work to take action together.
Game Changing Movements — Pachamama Alliance partner organizations that work to address the root causes of two of the most pressing issues of our time: democracy and climate change.
Pass it On — Pass It On is a community of leaders actively engaged in delivering Symposiums, hosting Circles, organizing their community, and reaching out to local media.
If you're a Symposium Facilitator, everything for you is exactly the same. You still access your events through the Facilitator Hub, and you still have access to all the support you've always had. The only difference is that the Symposium is now part of a larger pathway, and your guests will register through the Up to Us website. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com.

The internal combustion engine is far from deadOctober 22, 2012: 11:22 AM ET
Carmakers from Volkswagen to BMW are finding new ways to work with what they have.
By Anne VanderMey, reporter
FORTUNE -- Auto manufacturers and drivers alike have long yearned for a simple solution to fuel efficiency. For a while, it looked possible. In 2009 Fortune wrote that, thanks to advances such as electric cars, hybrids and diesel vehicles, "It seems certain that the traditional gasoline internal-combustion engine is on the wane."
Truth is, an affordable technology to upend the standard engine still has yet to materialize. Forecaster LMC-Automotive predicts that by 2020, more than 98% of vehicles will still incorporate an internal combustion engine of some kind. And some 72% of new car sales in 2020 will run on gasoline only, says LMC analyst Michael Omotoso, down just a few points from today's 84%. (Most of the rest are hybrids, diesel or ethanol-powered.)
Absent a revolutionary breakthrough within the next few years, carmakers from Volkswagen to BMW are now finding new ways to work with what they have. That's becoming especially important with a looming hike in fuel economy standards in the U.S. to 54.5 miles per gallon by 2025. (America is the world's second largest car market, after China.) To meet the new standards, companies are combining an array of existing technologies to eke out every possible bit of fuel savings from the 120-year-old internal combustion engine.
MORE: 11 best new cars in America
Asked about the disparate technologies being crammed into the standard engine, Society of Automotive Engineers's Andrew Smart puts it this way: "When you look at 2025, the expectation is there is no silver bullet, but there is plenty of silver shrapnel."
Ford (F), for one, took this approach in its new, much talked-about EcoBoost engine, which was introduced four years ago and has already sold more than 350,000 models. The EcoBoost is a compilation of long-standing technologies like direct injection, turbocharging and variable valve timing. Not much in it is new, but all together, the incremental improvements achieve a 20% gain in efficiency over its predecessors. (For more on the EcoBoost, click here.)
How'd they do it? For starters, the EcoBoost is light. The one-liter, 3-cylinder model it plans to release in the states next year will be the carmaker's smallest engine ever. Part of the weight loss is achieved by using aluminum instead of cast iron in the engine construction. It's also smaller, thanks to the other tweaks that allow it to downsize and still pack a punch.
MORE: 10 best new trucks in America
The engine's scale is in keeping with a trend. Throughout the industry, automakers have swapped V6s for four-cylinder engines. That applies to luxury cars, too, where once it was sacrilege to have anything smaller than a V8. Even BMW is joining in, with a tiny, three-cylinder engine slated to go on sale next year.
There are a few ways carmakers get smaller engines to deliver high performance. One is direct injection. The technology has been around for a while, but it has recently gained traction with U.S. manufacturers. To avoid wasting gas, precision injectors within the engine shoot fuel into an exact location in the cylinder. That allows for a cleaner burn, with a computer determining the exact amount of fuel needed and the exact spot it should land. Also, because the fuel goes directly to the cylinder without passing through other parts of the engine, it's cooler once it gets there. The colder temperature means the gas is denser, allowing for more of it to be used in a smaller space at higher levels of compression. The end result is a bigger punch.
Another method is turbocharging. According to Honeywell Transportation Systems, turbochargers were in about 25% of new cars sold globally, and could end up in 40% of cars as soon as 2017. The technology itself is nearly a century old, but automakers are increasingly embracing it. A few turbocharged engines: Ford's EcoBoost, Mazda's Skyactiv, BMW's EfficientDynamics. Turbocharging uses a car's own exhaust to power a pump that forces more air into the cylinders. That compressed air can mix with more compressed fuel (hello, direct injection), resulting in more power.
MORE: Ford's amazing little engine
Supercharging is a more expensive, but similar option. Superchargers do essentially the same thing as turbochargers, but instead of being powered by a vehicle's exhaust, they're mechanically driven, usually by the engine's fan belt. The supercharger's advantage is that there's no need to wait for exhaust to come out for the boost to kick in. The supercharger is more commonly used for performance rather than fuel economy.
This has been largely deemed too pricey to justify the extra power by U.S. automakers, Ford included (except for one high-performance Mustang variant). These firms have largely opted for turbochargers instead. However, some vehicles -- like the Volkswagen 1.4-liter TSI Twincharger four-cylinder engine -- have both. Volkswagen and its overseas counterparts were early pioneers of combining efficiency technologies, including diesel power, in engines for hyper-fuel conscious European customers.
Other increasingly common tactics include, but aren't limited to, reducing friction wherever there are moving parts. And variable valve timing, which was rare a decade ago and is now almost ubiquitous. Honda (HMC) pioneered the technology, with its VTEC system, which even got its own meme. And BMW has also made strides with its Valvetronic system. In cars equipped with the system, a computer intelligently times the opening and closing of air intake and exhaust valves to match a vehicle's speed and load.
MORE: 4 new myths of the auto world
In the future, expect big gains from variable valve timing systems becoming more precise, says Eric Fedewa, director of IHS Inc.'s global powertrain and component forecasting. Also expect more hybrid electric engines to work as a support to traditional engines. At the same time, transmissions will get more speeds, in an effort to make engines operate at their most efficient. In 10 years: "engines will necessarily be a lot smaller and probably as powerful or more powerful than they are now," Fedewa says. In the past, gains have focused on power. "You've essentially got consumers driving race car engines," Fedewa says of today's cars. In the future, gains will focus on efficiency.
The impact of all these innovations is substantial. According to analysis by the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute, fuel economy for light-duty vehicles has improved 18% since 2007, to 23.8 miles per gallon. Part of the credit for those gains goes to smarter engines, along with a host of other incremental improvements in vehicle efficiency. The increase isn't huge in real terms, but it's a giant leap compared with the scant 23% gain in the fuel economy of all vehicles between 1923 and 2007.
Of course, the world is still a long way from breaking its gasoline habit, and internal combustion won't change that. There's a physical limit to how small an automaker can make an engine and have it still power a car, and we've already hit it in large and midrange vehicles, says Automotive Engineering International senior editor Lindsay Brooke, and we're close in other classes. After that, to reduce fuel consumption the country will need more public chargers for electric cars, better batteries, and maybe even a new take on internal combustion. (Several startups are working on it.) But for now, it looks like the old-fashioned engine will be with us for a long time still -- and that might not be so bad.

[04-19, 20:41 UTC] <nash_makineta> yeah, I think that if you are looking for something in particular you could ask for it maybe here and perhaps someone has it...
[04-19, 20:10 UTC] <lae> no, there isn't. the torrent's dead unless you can find someone with a copy of it (i.e. find the uploader and ask them). Whatever you're looking for may also be on XDCC bots on IRC, or random DDL file hosts online.
[04-19, 20:08 UTC] <sh_yuna4ever> finally diva f 2end .. im going to explode.....
[04-19, 20:05 UTC] <TheMangaLab> Hello guys, just a quick question, how do we do when a torrent has no seeders? Is there a way to ask for seeds?
[04-19, 19:35 UTC] <nash_makineta> Soredemo Sekai... first episodes have been good for me. Although I cannot assure anything, its worth a shot ;)
[04-19, 19:35 UTC] <NeVe12p4wNeD> >.>
[04-19, 19:28 UTC] <mlcloud> @xDev, it has a pleasant theme and idea, but no, it wouldn't be considered "good." I'd watch up to the 2nd episode and make a decision from there.
[04-19, 19:27 UTC] <[TRVE]> xDev, no.
[04-19, 19:24 UTC] <akiranyo> Nyaa is pretty much for everything anime related. Though I myself use it 99% for anime, like 1-2 games what I ever got, which otherwise would be impossible to get for me
[04-19, 19:15 UTC] <xDev> Is "Soredemo Sekai wa Utsukushii" good?
[04-19, 18:53 UTC] <fafnyr> i thought nyaa was for video, why are games even here?
[04-19, 18:50 UTC] <HerbalNekoTea> Your blade and soul server for your client's dead for 2 years, so this torrent's useless... Wait for official release in west or play Chinese, Korean or Japanese release with english patch.
[04-19, 18:44 UTC] <nash_makineta> I think isshuukan friends can be a big one. Also mahouka looks good, and brimil or whatever in the darkness too.
[04-19, 18:43 UTC] <NIAIK> Guess I;ll need to learn BBCode, maybe later. Anyways, hf you guys, I'm out!
[04-19, 18:40 UTC] <NIAIK> huh, that failed!
[04-19, 18:39 UTC] <NIAIK> Well, I guess I should say hi now that this is back, so... Hi! [s]I guess.[s]
[04-19, 18:36 UTC] <NeVe12p4wNeD> Thanks <Seizhan> ^^
[04-19, 18:33 UTC] <nash_makineta>
testing again...

When you are not much better than they are (the situation everyone is in at the top levels) it is almost always a poor strategy.
Rudisha is a cut above the rest and did succeed at the OGs, but the same strategy the next race cost him, didn't it. For him, it is not good strategy to have it go slow so that everyone is still in it with 200 to go, but even there he is reputed to have possibly the best 400 capability and he might do pretty well letting other race plans play out.
Not to mention the fact that the benefits of drafting for an 800, especially with staggered starts pale in comparison to what benefits you get / or lose in a 5k or 10k. There are simply few guys, if any at the current level who could count on breaking away in top level races. With teamwork sacrificing for their "captain" perhaps, but not individually. Hence most guys waiting until the final 3 or 4 laps to show their strategies.
