gregplatt wrote:Needed Car Upgrades
BodySecond windows upgrade to lexan?
The hood is very heavy, possibly build a carbon fiber or fiberglass hood, possibly even all the body panels:
Other ideas???
Fix-----I've been looking online at a company in england that makes a carbon fiber kit, it includes everything to make the mold and build the part, sets up at room temperature, looks amazing, I'll find the url
There are definitely lots of opportunities for weight loss here. If you don't care too much about aesthetics, you can make your own panels from glass or CF. CF isn't going to gain you any more in weight savings than CF unless it is used in a structural part. For parts which are readily available though, you will probably spend less just buying them. Making molds is very expensive, especially if your time is valuable.
Chassis/SuspensionThe handling is horrible, we couldn't make any changes to the suspension due to the rules. The front is still UFO setup. The camber needs fixed badly, and we need to drop the car by literally 6 to 10 inches, no joke it looks like it's lifted, I think we took out well over 1000 pounds. Possibly upgrade the bushings etc...
Fix----2bennet has a full suspension setup http://www.2bennett.com/body_5000_200_suspension.html, pretty expensive at $2k but you get adjustable shocks front and rear, coilovers and the really nice camber plates.
I've also looked at the DIY write ups on the suspension but I'm not sure if it would be much cheaper, or more reliable??
The 2bennett kit is not designed for racing use, not at the $2k price at least. I'm sure they are capable of shortening the strut housings and getting you Koni race struts to fit, but it's going to cost you FAR more than $2k for them to do that. Their camber plates are nice enough. Take a look at the V8 DTM car's suspension setup in the front for ideas here. They run the most camber and castor possible in the front with fixed plates configured as such.
You might consider playing with various sway bars front and back. The V8 DTM cars also used rather large swaybars up front contrary to popular belief that front sways will cause a car to understeer more... it depends on too many other factors to always say that. So try a few things out there.
Back to the coilovers... I think you are going to have to go the DIY route. You will want to shorten the strut housings by at least 1.5" to be at a height appropriate to what you want to do and still retain some suspension travel. What you do with the rest of the suspension components to retain geometry is going to be up to you and where the car ends up. Anyway, DO NOT attempt to run Koni or Bilstein sport struts on this car. You will probably want to be running 600-700+ lb/in springs and those struts will blow out in VERY quick order with those spring rates. In the front end, you will either need to look into re-valved and shortened regular Koni/Bilsteins or Koni racing struts. The other option would be external reservoir struts, but that might be better for a later iteration. Look at what Josh and Nick S. did recently for double adjustable rear coilovers.
BrakesRight now we really like the 17z's up front with the C230 disks, cheap parts, we only pay $110 per caliper rebuilt and $50 for the drilled rotors. Only problem is the pads are really expensive, hawks are $250 per... Thinking about changing to Wilwoods, they have cheap racing pads, even though the setup is more. I'm not sure if I need more in the rear, seems to be fine stock, the car is so heavy in the front.
Need to add a bias valve though.
Need to change to wheel studs instead of bolts, bolts are the worst during a pitstop, I saw a conversion kit somewhere.
I think this is a good idea (changing out to the Wilwoods). You'll make up for it quickly I think.
Wheels/TiresWe are running an old set of speed lines, they are 17x8". They have an odd drop step in the wheel though and I think that they are close to a 16" wheel on the inside, we really had to grind down the 17z's!
We run a 180 tread rating tire, so we have a few different sets that we like, that's pretty easy.
We need to find one more set of lightweight wheels, perferebly 9 or 10" wide, we run 255's right now.
You should be able to run 275s on a 9-10"wheel at all four corners with the kind of camber you will want to be running up front. Rear is no problem to run at least that much.
EngineThis is the big one, I believe our timing belt skipped last year and crunched some valves. We race street tracks, usually around 2 miles in length. We need good reliable power, not crazy drag power, more revs the better. we are on a budget so we can't get to exotic.
Fix---Head: Thinking stock valves, springs etc. Repair them and surface the head
Block: Try and get by with what we have, it's a 200K mile stock short block
Exhaust: Upgrade the manifold, 3" downpipe, right now it's a stock down pipe with 3" exhaust out the back now muffler. Maybe do a side pipe out the b pillar passanger side.
Turbo: Thinking Garret BB possibly GT 3071 or GT30r not sure.
Wastegate: maybe Tial drop in
Ignition: Deffinetly coilovers or ls2 coils
Intake: one of the cool redisigned jobs for the 3b??
ECU: Deffinelty VEMS I think, V3 harness start from scratch
Intercooler: Not sure, craigslist special, custom piping with v bands?? Really like v bands for race repairs, makes it much easier
I would advocate for the inconel exhaust valves too. They are cheap insurance against a valve dropping.
I would throw rods in that short block also. It is cheap enough and will ensure that your 450 hp goal is achieved safely at the track. It's one thing to make that power on the street, but another to do it on the track where conditions are far less than ideal.
Exhaust-wise, you won't need anything more than 3" especially if you aren't running a muffler. An RS2 evo manifold would probably be OK, but it never hurts to have a nice tubular manifold from Hank. You can't go wrong either way. Don't try to run a side exit exhaust under the car. It will scrape things, especially when at the kind of ride height you are talking about. It'd be kinda cool to run it inside the car and out the side like the trans am cars did! You could always do a hood exit too if you run out of money! lol
Turbo - 3071 size will do well for you in terms of power output. I'd definitely go with what will be the most responsive (like the equivalently-sized EFR), but I doubt if it is cheaper than a regular gt3071! Just make sure to run the thing in it's efficiency range if you get an EFR. Step out of that by much, and it will go kabloom.
Wastegate - you really shouldn't need an upgrade here, but if you do, you might as well get a water-cooled one from Tial. There is no more reliable wastegate than a Tial.
Ignition - Yes, coils. I'd probably go with coil over plug like the R8/2.0tfsi coils. They'll save weight, are reliable, quick to change out, and have great output. They are being used on multiple 800 whp+ setups including my own (in the future).
Intake - not necessary at these power levels, but doesn't hurt...
Definitely go with VEMS for ECU. It will do everything you need and more.
Intercooler - the biggest and most efficient intercooler you can fit within reason in a 200 20v is this one, the Treadstone TRV25.
I fit it with same side end tanks. It probably wouldn't fit with opposite side end tanks unless you found a good way to route the pipe by cutting something unnecessary, etc. It will definitely fit with same side facing end tanks though. You can get cast 90 deg aluminum elbows to help with clearance coming out of it. It's that close... 90 deg silicone couplers probably wont fit without getting creative somehow.
On that subject, I would highly recommend you get some VanJen clamps. They will allow for more flex than v-bands do, they are arguably easier to put on and take off than v-bands (if you have alignment issues), and make a nice and reliable seal. Plus they look sweet
Gearbox/ClutchGearbox is making metal and leaking badly at the input shaft seal. Would love to put a dsg in this!!! but way to hard I think. Probably just pull it and rebuild, it's the 5 speed. We spend most of our time in 2nd and 3rd.
Fix---Clutch masters said they had an aluminum flywheel and custom cluth setup, seemed the cheapest good route. Right now we have a kevlar cluth on the stock flyweel and pressure plate.
I'd see if you can make the 016 work for you. It has much better ratios than the 01E does, and is arguably more reliable than an 01E. They have synchro issues. 016's only start to have issues when you launch them hard repeatedly and/or make about 450 torque at the wheels. Just something to think about.
Fuel SystemRight now it's the stock tank and pump, fuel regulator etc...
Fix---Would love a Fuel safe setup, dry break, dual 44 pumps and regulator, not sure if it makes sense to spend money in this area yet.
Stock pump should be sufficient, but it wouldn't hurt to have a surge tank or something to baffle the fuel. Twin pumps is not really a good thing for reliability. The reason? If one pump goes bad, you have a lean condition that will probably cause the engine to lean out, but not enough to stop the engine which would then lead to a total meltdown. A single pump going out (if it fails suddenly rather than slowly dies) will cause the engine to just shut off. Nothing will be harmed.
The dry break fittings are awesome though
Fix---Would love to switch to wilwood pedal box on a slider, instead of the seat on a slider. That way the seat could be pushed back further helping with the front weight issue.
Need to ditch the factory cluster, it's to hacked up. I've been looking at the AIM system , even the GT Wheel http://www.aim-sportline.com/eng/products-car/gt-steering-wheel/index.htm or the MXL dash. Also the Dash2Pro https://www.race-technology.com/gb/racing/products/display-products/dash2-pro. Both work with the vems inputs, the wheel would be pretty trick.
Nothing to comment on here
Fix---Need to get this car to handle better, need to lower it, camber around 2 degrees or so, balance it better, not sure???
See suspension section above for ideas there. Corner balancing and having the struts valved accordingly is also helpful.
AeroNeed some cool aero items, doesn't make that much of a difference I don't think, but looks cool
Fix---Front lip, rear wing, diffuser, who knows. Possibly try and make a completly new bumper, the factory one looks horrible without the chrome trim
::We have races coming up soon so I'm in high speed mode, any ideas are greatly appreciated, no mater how crazy, I even dream about running a compound diesel style dual turbo system, maybe next year. I'll choose what we do by the concensus of whoever chimes in.
Thanks in advance... I'll include lots of pictures and videos
That'd be cool! I'm all for a compound setup. Also, look into quick spool valves. A lot of times the engine can't even swallow enough air to take advantage of turbos like the smaller EFRs on a quick spool valve, but the boost can be down-regulated to still provide a lot of benefit from it. I honestly think that'd be all you'd need if you had someone who knows how to set it up properly. It isn't the easiest, but it is certainly doable.
Looking forward to seeing where this goes.

gregplatt wrote:Taking a look at the Borg Warner turbos vs the Garret turbos. Borg Warner is much cheaper or at least I've found some deals. Does anyone have experience with the BorgWarner AirWerks line, particularly the S200sx products. Nearly half the price as a Garret BB of similar specs, built for racing. They are not water cooled??? only oil feed lines. Looks like a good option to save a little and put that money towards something else.

Do you think that the Treadstone TRV25 is a little to much for me. It's rated at 1000hp and is pretty big, the bumper would block most of it.

My opinion is that you might as well do the rear main seal trigger if you have the engine out. It will give a better signal I believe (which is why it is planned for use on my revver project), and you leave the distributor hall sensor in the head in case you need a backup during a race!

When looking for toys in Olympia, chances are you'll Wind Up Here
It is virtually impossible to walk into Wind Up Here without feeling the corners of your mouth curl up into a smile. The Downtown Olympia toy store has a knack for turning even grown men and women into playful, adventurous children. I've visited Wind Up Here with my daughter on many occasions and, without fail, I always end up tinkering with something. And with over 4,000 square feet, there is plenty of room for everyone to tinker.
Established in 1993 by a group of 4 friends, Wind Up Here has sought to bring joy to Downtown Olympia through educational toys and an engaging lineup of children's events. That vision and energy is what attracted current owners, Brekke Hewitt and Gail Small to purchase the business in March 2007. The mother-daughter partners had just opened their first toy store, Dragon's Toy Box in Seattle's Pike Place Market, two years earlier. They soon decided to expand and began searching for new opportunities. When they found that Wind Up Here was for sale in Olympia they decided to take a look. "It was just a perfect fit. We came down and met the owners and met the staff and it was love at first sight," says Hewitt.
We focus on gathering a great selection of toys that promote creativity, interaction, cognitive thinking and positive play. Wind Up Here brings you toys from companies that are conscientious of the environmental and social health of both our community and the entire globe.
What's not to love? As a parent, it is refreshing to find a toy store that places education as their top priority. But that doesn't mean the toys aren't fun too. "There is so much that is educational to children through their process of play and learning that wouldn't seem educational to a grown-up," says Hewitt. The toys featured at Wind Up Here are not the typical selection of toys you might find at some of the bigger toy stores. Instead, recognizing both the responsibility and opportunity that comes with selling products designed for children, they select toys that promote creativity, interaction, cognitive thinking, and positive play.
Its not just about selling toys either. The folks at Wind Up Here have a strong sense of community and they provide a fun, safe place for kids and parents to come hang out. "We have 2 game nights a month, we participate in First Friday, we're always part of Arts Walk, we do different Play Day series during the summers, and when someone local comes to us and says they want to come play with the kids and do a show of some sort we almost always can make that possible," Hewitt says.
The next time you are looking for Olympia WA toy stores, we're confident you'll Wind Up Here!
Wind Up Here toy store is located at 121 5th Avenue, on the corner of 5th and Washington in Downtown Olympia. Be sure to check them out on Facebook and on Twitter. And if you can't make it in to see them in person you can always shop for toys on their website at winduphere.com

Jenni Rivera Memorial: Fans Mourn, But Celebrate Her Life
Fans of regional Mexican star Jenni Rivera said that they personally showed up to pay tribute to the singer who was a true American success who never gave up despite many challenges.
During the entertainer's memorial services at the Gibson Amphitheater in Los Angeles on Wednesday (Dec. 19) fans couldn't help but get emotional as they, along with Rivera's family and friends, bid farewell to the singer who for most of her career was an open book, often chronicling her own life on Twitter and television programs.
Jenni Rivera Honored By Family & Stars in Emotional Memorial
"I'm a fan because every time she fell in her life she would stand right up," said Melissa Rodriguez, 21, of Pomona who attended the memorial. "She was a woman and fought for what she wanted."
Miriam Gallegos, 30 of Lomita, Calif., said that that Rivera taught her that she, too, could do anything in life no matter what came her way.
• PHOTOS: The Latin Diva's Life
"She's my hero and my 11-year-old son also calls her a hero," said Gallegos, who wiped away her tears. "She started from nothing, selling music at swap meets and became a huge star. And she did not need a man to get her there. I'm going to continue buying her music for the rest of my life."
Fan Samantha Diaz said that she once went to see Rivera's brother Lupillo in concert. He invited his sister on stage and that changed everything for Diaz, who also managed to get tickets for the memorial.
"What struck me most about Jenni is her charisma and that instantly made me a big fan," Diaz said. "She had a way of connecting to people."
Fans at the Gibson dressed like their idol, carried posters and became emotional when they heard tributes from Rivera's family and friends such as Mexican superstars Joan Sebastian and Ana Gabriel, who performed during the ceremony, which lasted for more than two hours and was televised on Univision and Telemundo.
Some fans were given a program at the memorial. Not everyone received the booklet, which featured a picture of a smiling Rivera on the cover and more than 20 glossy pages of Rivera tributes and pictures.
"The best mom we could ask for," wrote Rivera's daughter Janney "Chiquis" Marin, who most recently has been featured on her own mun2 reality program. "She's funny, playful, passionate and strict when needed and an absolute warrior when it comes to making sure we're okay!"
Even on the Internet, some fans were responding to those who tried selling tickets to the memorial for $300 each. "You're pretty pathetic trying to sell those tickets," one fan wrote. "They were free … not to make money off her."

ArtsPath visual artist and painter Bernie Wilke recently completed a highly successful residency at the Mars Home for Youth in Mars, Pennsylvania. The youth created a mural, which will be unveiled at the first-ever MHY Historical Tour and Open House—free and open to the public—on Saturday, October 1, 2011, from 10:00 a.m. to noon.
The Mars Home for Youth has been serving the greater Pittsburgh region for over 130 years, evolving from the care of orphans by members of the Fourth United Presbyterian Church of Allegheny City, to caring for children from broken homes in the early to mid-1920s, to the current mission of caring for the special needs of troubled and abused children and youth. This setting of providing a sanctuary to help youth ages eleven to eighteen heal and cope with psychological and social traumatic experiences was the perfect setting for ArtsPath artist Bernie Wilke to employ the healing power of art in a ten-day residency.
The thirty-five youths participating in the residency were involved in every aspect of the five-by-sixteen-foot mural, including research on the Mars Home for Youth history, brainstorming and creating the design, and then finishing with painting the mural. Although the initial plan was to tell the history of the home, the students selected a design that shows others their experiences at the MHY, one that highlights their journey as they move from dark to light. In the end, they simply had a desire for others to understand them as important members of the community.
Said Judy Rodgers, the Mars Home for Youth director of Development, "They wanted people to know what the home is there for and what it is like to be here, so we were delighted to let it quickly evolve from our idea on the home's history to their project and story."
Through various exercises to help find a theme, identify the emotions they wished to show, decide on color choices, etc., Wilke discovered that "These students really have a lot of ideas and creativity." When asked about his artistic vision for the mural, Wilke said, "I never go into a project such as this with a preconceived idea of its outcome. It has to come from the kids."
His relaxed and mentoring style of instruction guided the students, but yet allowed them to think on their own in making creative choices, and was in no small part a major contribution to the success of the residency. Said one resident, "I like him because he explains and gives ideas, but the kids can do their own thing," while another mentioned that the project showed her a new way to express her emotions.
Artist Bernie Wilke has been an artist on the state directory of teaching artists through ArtsPath for over six years and has established himself as a visual artist who is committed to using his talents in a community setting. After completing his B.A. in visual arts from Antioch College, Bernie received his M.F.A. degree in studio art from Indiana University of Pennsylvania in May 2001.
Since then, Bernie has completed over fifty-five collaborative mural projects in places such as schools, community centers, nursing homes, and churches. Also an active teacher, he has taught painting, drawing, color, 2-D design, and art history at many types of institutions, including two colleges, a correctional institution, and a guidance center.
Bernie spent 2005–2010 in Philadelphia, where, in addition to teaching art classes with several arts organizations, he was an active artist for the Mural Arts Program. Part of his vision is to continue to utilize the power of art to build community and cultivate social healing.
The residency was brought to the Mars Home for Youth by ArtsPath, the arts-in-education arm of the Lively Arts in the College of Fine Arts at IUP and in partnership with the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts. Further contributions to the project were made by the Pittsburgh-based law firm of Cohen & Grigsby.

We're days away from the All-Star festivities (February 16 to 18, yo!), and it feels like the NBA is still stuck in the regular season.
The revamped Cleveland Cavaliers are invincible (2-0, but not better than the Toronto Raptors), Giannis Antetokounmpo claimed another player's soul, and Damian Lillard (44 points, plus the win) and Kevin Durant (50) just had the most epic duel—not before Steve Kerr told Draymond Green, "Ah, f*ck it. You coach."
To take your mind off the recent intense developments and to get you revved up for the highly anticipated midseason extravaganza, FHM compiled the sneakers that will be rocked by your favorite players come Sunday. Most of these pairs can be purchased, so choose wisely:
These special LA Chuck Taylors
While unlikely to be game-worn, an NBA-themed release from Converse is only fitting in time for the exhibition, especially with a pair made popular by the likes of legends Bill Russell and Wilt Chamberlain. The collection, which used the Chuck 70 sillhoutte, celebrates some of the league's most decorated franchises and is available in "Franchise" and "Legends" designs.
Air Jordan 32 'Free Throw Line' and Jordan Why Not Zer0.1
His Airness taking over the All-Star apparel doesn't end with those crisp B&W uniforms. The event pack includes fresh takes of the Jordan flagship's latest model and Russell Westbrook's sigs, if you're not a fan of the Air Jordan 3 retro. It also features a custom tribute jersey for the Chicago Bull buff, as well as modernized classic Air Jordans for female fans.
Bape x Adidas Dame 4
Well, that's one way to get noticed. After being snubbed for the past two consecutive years, Dame Dolla marks his ASG comeback with an off-the-wall collab with the King Kong of streetwear. Lillard's signature sneaker with Three Stripes gets the iconic "shark teeth," camouflage, and WGM (world gone mad) treatment in three colorways—green, red, and black.
Nike LeBron 15 'Rust Pink,' KD 10 'All-Star,' Kyrie 4 'Tie Dye'
It's been quite busy for the Swoosh brand in recent weeks, and not just as the NBA's official outfitter. For the superstar-studded affair, LeBron James will lace up a rose-colored unit, complete with speckled midsole and gold details. Meanwhile, both Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving are set to debut vibrant styles that were inspired by top beaches in the host city of Los Angeles.
Under Armour Curry 4
Stephen's Curry intially crucified basketball shoe line has officially turned into one of the sweetest kicks around. This all-white scheme and translucent blue outsole make up for a simple yet stunning look. The knit internal sleeve, microfiber synthetic quarter panel, and dynamic seam taping are just half of what the Curry 4 offers. Kevin Plank, you've outdone yourself again.

This just in: Congress overwhelmingly passed sanctions against Russia last year to punish them for influencing our elections.
Trump has refused to implement these sanctions based on the idea that "The Russians have learned their lesson."
At the exact same time, every national security agency is saying loud and clear, "Russia has not learned any lesson and is already trying to influence the 2018 elections."
On a completely unrelated note: Collusion between Trump and Russia to influence the last election is not a crime UNLESS….Trump offers Russia something in return for their help. Something like….refusing to implement sanctions.
On the Fetish Page…
Somewhere in my youth, I heard the word "fetish". This is a term that I somehow have come to associate with the idea that some men find women's feet particularly sexy. Interesting. I don't get it but interesting none-the-less.
Today, "fetish" to me is a reminder that we all have secrets. We all have these little things we keep to ourselves, about ourselves because we have determined that we are ashamed of them.
I don't have a problem with this and my guess is that I'm about average when it comes to "dirty little secrets."
However, there is a class of "dirty little secrets" that has become rather transparent.
That class is "Trump Supporter."
When someone supports Trump, I immediately assume that several of the following "dirty little secrets" apply to them:
- They are too lazy to educate themselves about facts.
- They are gullible.
- They are fearful.
- They are bad at math and the sciences.
- They are selfish.
- They are short-sighted.
- They are racist.
- They are evangelical.
- They are poor (and will be taken advantage of)
- They are rich (and willing to take advantage of others)
- They watch Fox News.
- They are excellent at mental gymnastics needed to justify Trump's actions.
- They are white, male and over 55 years of age.
- They believe in conspiracies.
- They believe that their failure in life is due to someone else.
- They gobble up Cherry Picked data that supports their position.
These are all things, that if they belonged to me, would be filed in my "dirty little secret" box. I would be ashamed to let you know these things about me.
But…when someone says, "Gotta get me some more Trump!" They are spilling this secret box for all to see.
And I pity them for it.
Up, up and away…

Free US Ground Shipping on Purchases over $25
Our Premium Thunderbird Mexican Yoga blankets are thick, heavy, and made of a wonderfully soft blend of cotton, acrylic, and polyester. These beautiful heavyweight blankets come in several color combinations and thunderbird patterns. Understanding that these blankets are hand made in different villages throughout Mexico there may be some slight variations in the shades and pattern from the picture shown.
Mexican blankets are used frequently in Iyengar and restorative yoga practices. They can be used folded under kneeling and sitting poses to cushion bones and joints, underneath you in repose positions to insulate from cold flooring, rolled or folded to provide support or add stretch in poses, or just as a cover to warm you in Savasana.
The Thunderbird (Golondrina) represents a bird of power and strength in certain North American indigenous cultures. Its name comes from the belief that its wings cause thunder and stir the wind. Find your power and strength using these Thunderbird blankets during your yoga practice or using at home. Adds a beautiful splash of color and design as a throw blanket or lying on your bed. Use for a picnic blanket or to cover your outdoor table. Use for your pets, as an emergency blanket, or as a fun blanket to use at your kids' games or your favorite team games.
As mentioned previously, the blankets may vary from what is pictured. Some of the variations could be that some blankets have solid-colored thunderbirds, while others have multi-colored birds. Some blankets may have different colored thunderbirds, while others have the same colored bird throughout. Shades of color can also vary from blanket to blanket. These blankets are handmade in different villages of Mexico and so each shipment we receive can be different.

Love this meditation from the 54 day Novena:
Fruit of Patience: A form of the moral virtue of fortitude. It enables one to endure present evils without sadness or resentment in conformity with the will of God. Patience is mainly concerned with bearing the evils caused by another. The three grades of patience are: Lowest: to bear difficulties without interior complaint, Middle: to use hardships to make progress in virtue, Highest: to desire the cross and afflictions for Christ's love, to have something to offer up, and to accept them with spiritual joy. (Fr. John Hardon, Modern Catholic Dictionary)
The meditations are among the best spiritual food I've encountered in a long, long, time.
It's like a mini retreat and the fruit of the Rosary is just so magnificent. So many holy people remind us not to let a day go by without saying the Rosary, especially if we're working in God's vineyard. I continuously talk to God and pray throughout the day so I feel plugged in, but I confess to not keeping up with the daily Rosary. Its the best 20 minutes of my day, so why I let it go by the wayside is beyond me.
And ohhhhhhhhh the stupid things we do.
Speaking of stupid things, the Holy Father continues to give Catholics plenty of things to write about.
Phil Lawlor gives readers a more articulate article on the paganism in Rome than my cryptic post of yesterday.
again—I stress the point because I don't want to be caught up in the wrong argument—I am not disputing the Pope's argument that Christians should exercise greater care for the environment. What troubles me is another, more specific aspect of this message: the assertion that care for the environment should be understood as one of the corporal and spiritual works of mercy.
It's actually worse than that as the Holy Father went so far as to say not turning off lights is a sin - and here is the real kicker - which can be absolved by recycling and carpooling.
Even Jeff Mirus has conceded the Pope is confusing pagan ideas with Catholic theology.
This is a great article to read again and again.
Dear God, please help us through this insufferable buffoonery of a papacy. That is all.

Most Beautiful Post
Now this is hard, I've really no particular favorite post and I haven't really thought about this before. Looking at my archive, if I really have to pick, I guess it would have to be the Dinner at The Ruins Bacolod post. Wait, scratch that, I think it's my Moon Garden Tagaytay post. I feel this is my most beautifully written article (which I suppose crossed the border into being too flowery, but what the hell, right? hehe). I guess it kinda worked well combined with the photos I took of the place.
Most Popular Post
Now, this is easier. According to my Blogger stats page, my all-time most popular post is the Jetson-esque Centris Walk in Quezon City. I guess people are really just curious about the new futuristic eat-out place in the city.
Most Controversial Post
Hmm... I really don't have a post that stirred up much controversy. The only thing I can think of is my bad review regarding Baguio's much revered Pizza Volante. It really didn't generate much response, but I just can't forget the very bloody chicken that was served to us (ughh).
Most Helpful Post
My grand misadventures in the marshes of Candaba prompted me to write the Candaba Travel Tips article. Filled with all kinds of useful info for first time travelers to the swamp, I wish I could have read my own post before heading to the famed bird sanctuary of Pampanga.
A Post Whose Success Surprised Me
Sunrise at the Port of Banton Town was a definite surprise at the number of comments and how fast they came. I think it generated the most number of comments on all my blog posts (which is really not that many really compared to other travel blogs out there, haha).
A Post I Feel Didn't Get the Attention It Deserved
A jaunt through the darkened and bomb-hewn, rough passages of Malinta Tunnel in Corregidor, I felt, deserves more attention that what it got. I guess the lousy ultra grainy photos turned off the commenters, haha.
The Post That You Are Most Proud Of
My Nine-Day Jaunt through Southern Luzon is by far the longest I've been away from home. It took me to a lot of different places, enabled me to attend a festival, forced me to stay at a total stranger's house, visit the islands of Caramoan, scour Naga's old churches, and wreaked the most havoc on my feet from all the walking and hiking I've done. This is my grandest adventure to date, and it really made me feel like a true-blue traveler.
Thanks to Tina of The Frustrated Traveller for tagging me. This is long overdue, but better late than never eh?

Tara Lain
Tara Lain Signs New Three-Book Contract with
Dreamspinner Press for LOVE IN LAGUNA Series
Publication Dates for the contemporary gay romances set for 2015 and 2016
Laguna Beach, CA., June 10, 2014 — Known for her romance novels set in Laguna Beach, a small, seaside town of artists and surfers in the middle of the huge southern California megaplex, author Tara Lain today announced the signing of a three-book contract with Dreamspinner Press for a new series entitled Love in Laguna. The individual book titles are Knight of Ocean Avenue, Prince of the Playhouse and Knave of Broken Hearts. The contract was negotiated by Tara's agent, Saritza Hernandez of the Corvisiero Literary Agency, New York.
"These books are very close to my heart," said Lain, who is best known for writing MM romance which is growing rapidly in mainstream popularity. "Each of them is wholly or partly set in my favorite town and concerns real issues of 'coming out' or even realizing true sexual orientation in a man's twenties or thirties versus his teens. Like all my books, they're very romantic and concern couples who often have strong differences — and strong attraction."
Among Lain's most popular works are her Balls to the Wall series all of which take place in Laguna Beach. Most of the books in this series — Volley Balls, Fire Balls, Beach Balls, Snow Balls, and F.A.S.T. Balls — have appeared on the Amazon list of 100 top-selling gay romances in their publication years.
Lain is also known for her recently introduced paranormal series with Dreamspinner Press. Tales of the Harker Pack, the first two books of which — The Pack or the Panther and Wolf in Gucci Loafers — have been Amazon bestsellers and have reached number one at All Romance eBooks.
"I'm very happy to be working with Dreamspinner on this new series. We're two books into my recently signed contract for the Long Pass Chronicles, and I'm enjoying their editing and publishing process so much. Love in Laguna couldn't have a better home."
The first book in the new series, Knight of Ocean Avenue, will be introduced shortly before the Romantic Times Conference in May 2015. Prince of the Playhouse will follow in the fall of 2015 and Knave of Broken Hearts in 2016.
About Tara Lain
Tara Lain writes the Beautiful Boys of Romance in LGBT erotic romance novels that star her unique, charismatic heroes. Her first novel was published in January of 2011 and she's now somewhere around book 25. Her best-selling novels have garnered awards for Best Series, Best Contemporary Romance, Best Erotic Romance, Best Ménage, Best LGBT Romance, Best Gay Characters, and Tara has been named Best Writer of the Year in the LRC Awards. In her other job, Tara owns an advertising and public relations firm. She often does workshops on both author promotion and writing craft. She lives with her soul-mate husband and her soul-mate dog in Laguna Beach, California, a pretty seaside town where she sets a lot of her books. Passionate about diversity, justice, and new experiences, Tara says on her tombstone it will say "Yes"!

Let's get one thing out of the way before we go any further… you know, the big purpley elephant in the room. Let's all just agree that the album cover to the Dum Dum Girls' third full-length album, Too Soon, is horrendous and tacky. What is Dee Dee wearing? Why is she looking at me like that? Why is she even on this cover at all? Up until now, the Dum Dum Girls' album covers have been pretty cool, at times, beautiful. This gaudy thing belongs in the shreader, but I can't tell if this is on purpose or not.
Right, where were we? The music. Yes, well the music a completely different story all together. In fact, Too True is yet another bold step from a band that seems to get better with every release. Voice problems be damned, frontwoman Dee Dee Penny followed her music ("desire") deep down the rabbit hole and what has come out on the other side is a lush haze of 80s-goth inspired garage pop.
Like a flower that's slow to bloom, Too True takes its time to open up. The first three tracks are come across as half-baked ideas that never really seem to take off. "Rimbaud Eyes" is the most generic out of the three, and like the album art, you begin to wonder why these songs were included. Perhaps that muse Dee Dee was after led her down the wrong path.
Yet, as soon as the gorgeous "Are You Okay?" comes along, Too True turns into a completely different album; the sequencing is more balanced and the songwriting is much sharper. "In The Wake of You" is an immediate stand-out, as it is the culmination of everything the band has done up to this point. Its widescreen chorus points to the future, but the rhythm and grungy guitar hint at the Dum Dum Girls' roots in garage rock.
The great thing about Too True is that while every song on here is unique, the overall vibe and sound remains constant. That's not an easy thing to do. I can't picture any of these songs on another Dum Dum Girls record, and I think that's a good thing. Dee Dee is mastering her craft, and album by album, she remains looking forward. In the past, she has made this sound easy, but on Too True it feels a little more earned. Give this album some loving care, and watch it blossom into the beautiful flower it truly is.

Krys grows up
Krys slyly sneaked into her grandmas and grandpas bedroom. She was 10 years old, long natural blonde hair, big brown eyes, 5'2" 100ilbs, she started her period when she was 9 years old, so she had already had 26B breasts, and she had a big bubble butt that she simply hated. She went to their closet and found what she was looking for. The movies her grandma and grandpa said "was not suited for children" Krys was tired of being called a kid. She wanted to grow up, so she figured if she watched these grown up videos that would make her grown up.
Krys stood up on a pile of clothes and stretched and got a random video. She hurriedly got out of their bed room. She looked back at them and they was still snoring, so she went to her room, locked the door and inserted the video into her tv/vcr combo.
The screen was black for awhile then this woman came on there moaning with a guy behind her doing something odd with this long thing sticking in and out of her vagina. Krys watched with intrest, the woman looked to be having so much fun and the guy was all red. Krys didnt know why, but her pussy started to feel funny, she got the sudden urge to rub herself down there. She stuck her hand down her little shorts and under her panties and stroked her finger down her slit. She shivered all over "wow that felt so good!" Krys thought, then she touched that little sensitive nub and gasped with delight.
Her grandpa woke up from hearing moans and groans. He sled out of bed trying not to wake his wife, and went to his granddaughters door and he put his ear on the door and listened attentively. He heard two people moaning and groaning and another gasping. He tried to open the door but it was locked, he went back to his room got his wallet got a credit card and went back to the door quietly. He then sled the card and poped the lock and opened it just a bit so he could see.
He saw Krys on the bed touching herself watching a porno. He didnt know why but he got so hard watching this. "God what is going on, I shouldnt be excited shes my granddaughter for Godssakes!" He watched for a little while longer and couldnt take it anymore so he closed the door and went to the bathroom to jerk off. After he was done he cleaned up and went down stairs.
Krys was sitting at the table looking at the newspaper, her cheeks was a little flushed from getting herself excited.
"Good morning Pappy!" Krys said happily. She loved this man so much, he took her in when her mom and dad didnt want to. Her grandma really didnt want her, nor liked her. But he always treated her well.
"Morning Sweetie" He answered just as happily. "Hows my little princess this morning? You look a little flushed, you okay?" He said smiling inside knowing why she was so flushed.
"Oh..I'm good, I was just running around I suppose" Krys said and giggled. Oh God I hope he doesnt know what I did. She thought
Pappy sat down across from her.
"Are you done with the newspaper?" He asked with a smile.
"Oh ..Uhmmm.. YUP!" Krys said and handed him the newspaper.
"Thanks hun" He said.
Krys went to the fridge and didnt see anything appealing to her so she decided to head off to school early.
"Well Im off to school now Pappy! I love you, see you this afternoon" Krys said and started to leave.
"Hey wheres my kiss and hug little missy?" Her grandfather asked staring at her nice rounded butt.
"Oh..I forgot! Im sorry Pappy!" Krys said and ran up to him and kissed his check and hugged him.
"Awww thats okay…" He said and ran his hand down her back and down to her ass and let it linger there. "You be careful going to school and on your way back. Remember to be here at 5pm exactly, you know how I'am with your kerfu"
"Y-yes sir!" Krys said a little embarrassed because she got so excited by his hand touching her there. "Good-Bye Pappy" She said and let him go and his hand slide down her butt slowely.
Krys shivered and walked out the door and went to school. She had fun at cheerleading practice, and was asked to go to the mall. With out thinking that it was only and hour before she had to go home she went. After buying a new pair of earrings she made it home at 6pm. She walked in the door happily.
"Pappy I'm home!" She hollared happily. Then she glanced over at the clock and it was 6:02pm. 'Oh no' She thought.
"Krys come up to my bedroom. Now!"
Krys jumped and sniffled and walked up to his room slowely. "Yes..sir?" She said sadly trying to get out of a spanking with a sad pittiful face.
"Take your uniform skirt off and panties and lay across my legs, I'm going to teach you a lesson" Pappy said sternly.
"OH PLEASE NO NO!!! I DONT WANT ONE PLEASE PAPPY IM SORRY!!"Krys cried beggingly.
"I DONT CARE DO IT NOW!!"Pappy yelled angerly
Krys knew better to back talk him now so she sled her skirt and panties down and layed across his lap.
He gently massaged each of her butt cheeks. She shivvered and started to get moist being really turned on by just this simple gesture. He slapped one butt cheek gently then the other.
"Oh Pappy no PLEASE!" Krys cried out.
"Shut up!"Pappy said and slapped her ass really hard.
Krys pussy was bumping up against his knee, and it felt really good, but her ass stung really bad. She started to get even wetter as he keeped slapping.
"Pappy..please" She cried
He slapped and slapped her ass until it was red and burned.
"Now that will teach you to come home late."He said.
"I'm sorry Pappy.."She sniffled and got off of his lap and sat in the floor and cried.
"Stop crying..Sweetie I'm sorry" He leaned down and kissed her forehead.
Krys looked up and kissed him back..but on the lips instead. Pappy gasped when she did that
"I'm sorry Pappy!" She said "I dono what came over me."
Pappy took he shirt and pulled it off, and then took her and slung her on the bed and got ontop of her.
"P-pappy!" She yelled shocked.
Pappy didnt answer he started kissing her deeply sliding his tongue in and out of her mouth probing around licking and sucking. Then he kissed down to her breasts and kissed each one of them. Krys moaned with pleasure. He then went down to her hairless pussy and stated sliding his tongue up and down the slit of her pussy. Krys moaned with pleasure arching her back begging him to lick her more. So he did he licked her pussy up an down..up and down..then swirled it around her nub, then went down to the hole and stuck his tongue in her pussy. Krys cried out. "Oh pappy oh god that feels so good OOHHH" She moaned so he moved his tongue around in circles inside her pussy hole then moved it in and out fast. She moved her hips making her pussy ride his tongue and started to shake all over. "OOHH GOD IT FEELS SO GOOD OH SHIT OOHH PAPPY!!" She moaned loudly and started to cum all over her grandfathers face, and he just keepd licking all her sweet pussy juice up.

How do I become a Catholic?
Adults and children (RCIA Adapted for Children) who have reached the age of reason (around age seven)and who are unbaptized or baptized in another Christian faith tradition and seek to embrace the Catholic faith participate in an initiation process called the RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults). Both adults and children are fully initiated into the Catholic Church during this process, celebrating Baptism, if needed, Confirmation, and First Eucharist. Below is some general information about the process. For more information about the RCIA process or to begin the process, contact the Director of Faith Faith Development.
Holy Infant offers a year-round RCIA process, so a person may enter the first phase, Inquiry, at any time throughout the year. Inquirers bring their questions about Christianity and Catholicism to the meetings which are led by members of the RCIA team.
During the Inquiry phase, there are no expectations for participation and no obligation to provide the RCIA team with any notice or reason for missing sessions. Participants may choose to come one week and not return for 6 or 12 months. At that time they are happily welcomed back.
The focus of the Inquiry phase is to address the concerns and questions of the participants and to provide a basic understanding of what it means to embrace the Roman Catholic faith. Some will decide that the Catholic faith is right for them. Others may decide not to go further in the process at this time. Inquiry meetings are held approximately twice a month on a weekday evening. Check the parish calendar for a schedule of meeting times.
For those who decide to become a member of the Catholic Church, the next step is a transition into the second phase of the RCIA, called the Catechumenate. The transition is marked by an Entrance Rite, celebrated during one of the weekend liturgies.
The Catechumenate phase is more structured than the Inquiry phase, and participants are expected to attend as many of the Catechumenate sessions as possible. As in the Inquiry phase, there is no set length of time for this phase.
The curriculum for the Catechumenate is based on the Lectionary and on the needs of the members of the Catechumenate. Those in the Catechumenate, called catechumens (unbaptized) or candidates (baptized in another Christian faith tradition), are expected to attend liturgy once each weekend. The liturgy time will be specified by the RCIA team and will rotate from week to week.
During the liturgy, following the Liturgy of the Word, participants in the Catechumenate are 'sent forth' ('dismissed') to discuss the weekend's readings while the rest of the parish prepares for and celebrates the Liturgy of the Eucharist (Communion). After the liturgy, spouses, sponsors and the rest of the RCIA team join those in the Parish Center for the Catechumenate session that lasts about an hour.
Purification and Enlightenment
This third phase of the RCIA process, Purification and Enlightenment, immediately precedes the celebration of the sacraments of initiation. The focus of this period is on prayer and spiritual reflection. For those preparing for Baptism, this phase takes place during the season of Lent, as catechumens prepare for full initiation at the Easter Vigil. For those who are baptized and seeking full communion with the Catholic Church, the Purification and Enlightenment phase and the initiation sacraments of Confirmation and Eucharist can be celebrated at different times of the year.
The fourth phase of the RCIA process, Mystagogy, occurs after one has become a fully initiated member of the Catholic Church. It is a time to ponder one's experience of the sacraments, as well as a time to reflect on how to live as a Catholic Christian.

The Open Road
With the advent of Henry Ford's Model T in 1908, cars became available to the masses. Cities and towns built their own asphalt roads but there was no organization on a national level. The Federal Highway Act of 1925 sought to resolve confusion between state and local routes. Highways were given a standard numerical designation--north to south highways were odd numbered, west to east highways were even numbered. Redundant numerical highways were renamed.
The automobile industry struggled during the Depression and World War II but the early 1950's saw a major increase in car ownership. Road trips emerged as a desired vacation choice and a spate of new businesses were born: gas stations, roadside diners, repair shops and highway motels. President Eisenhower argued that in the event of a foreign invasion the army would need highways to transport troops and supplies across the country. He passed the National Interstate & Defense Highway Act of 1956 which authorized the creation of 41,000 miles of highways. Today the US highway system totals more than 157,000 miles.
I love road trips. My favorite trek is driving north on Highway 1 up the California Coast. I stop for chicken pot pie at Linn's in Cambria, go jade-hunting at Jade Cove in Lucia then hike through the redwoods in Big Sur. There's something magical and liberating about leaving the city behind and taking unknown roads through small towns and the beautiful back country. You're filled with a sense of possibility and you never know where a mysterious road might lead. It can be scary too, but that's part of the adventure. The open road beckons and the lucky few heed the call. (5" x 10", black ink print)

This is really interesting, Loren! I didn't know there used to be private roads only for members. Also, I agree about Hwy 1 up the California coast, beautiful!ReplyDelete

Great words. I miss road tripping. The USA is the best country in the world for it.ReplyDelete

That's really skilful, Loren!ReplyDelete
I named my book "Maya ROADS, One Woman's Journey Among the People of the Rainforest," because it travels an unknown path toward a beckoning point, much as your road here reflects. Thank you for this, Loren, proving again that an image is worth a thousand....well, you know.ReplyDelete
Thanks for letting me know about your post on the open road. I love it!ReplyDelete
I had no idea this was the history of roads but I guess it makes so much sense. I love the imagery here, there is such a sense of adventure.ReplyDelete
Very cool. I've seen lots of road scenes just like this one, and it's inspiring every time.ReplyDelete
Very nice work.
Interesting bit of history to accompany your artwork. Nope, there's nothing like a road trip, and the USA is a great place for them. We did 3300 miles on our last one in 2011. Thanks for sharing, Loren.ReplyDelete

by: the Common Constitutionalist
If you are a Ted Cruz supporter like me, you thought he won the debate. The same goes for Trump and Rubio supporters. To supporters of all others – Rots-a-Ruck.
This time around it seems more people are talking about the Cruz v Rubio battles than anyone else, including the Trumpster, concentrating on their immigration back and forth.
Cruz said during the debate that he is against the amnesty Rubio was pushing for and then added that, "I have never supported legalization, and I do not intend to support legalization."
Many have jumped on this as some sort of "Gotcha" moment – like – now we have him – he's waffling! He refuses to commit to a definitive statement. Well, only a stupid person, a politician or liar (usually redundant) would ever be that definitive. A smart person would never say never.
Yesterday Glen Beck used the analogy of a president saying he would NEVER raise taxes – ever. Well, that's a great sound bite and it may garner a few votes, but what if we were to find ourselves in the next great war, without the additional funds needed and taxes had to be raised, even temporarily, to pay for the war effort? There goes the President's grand definitive pledge. Does this now make the president a liar? Cruz is far too intelligent to make that type of mistake. read more

ALISON MACLEOD was one of the first talented friends i chose to share with you when i started this blog last year – and i am pretty sure i will want to share every single collection she creates and every lookbook she ever shoots with caro weiss photography for as long as i have this space..
alisons delicate designs are inspired by the art of collecting things – all of her pieces like treasures. beautiful trinkets to wear and cherish over years. intricate fine little objects to keep and become attached to and maybe pass down to someone later in life. the kind of jewellery you can wear every day – charming and demure – but when you do take it off, is kept in some kind of wonderful little open box or dangled displayed on a table alongside other collected curios in your home.
the tiny catkin necklet in gold is the daintiest beautiful thing on my wish list this year (and lasts) and i patiently – tolerantly – wait for the day that the husband and alison have that conversation ..
read more about alison back in my first post and see & shop the full collection on her lovely website here.

Key Stage 2 includes classes in Year 3 - Year 6 and caters for children aged 8-11years.
In studying English, children develop skills in speaking, listening, reading and writing. This enables them to express themselves creatively and imaginatively, and helps them to communicate with others effectively. Great emphasis is placed on developing children's spoken language, as this is crucial for learning to read, write, to be numerate and successful in all areas of learning.
The teaching of grammar allows for the expansion of children's language and for deepening their understanding. We believe it is better taught using methods that allow fun to be combined with clarity, interest and improved skills. Our grammar teaching is incorporated into Literacy lessons and is mostly taught through understanding the genres.
On Friday the children have 'Big Writing'. What is BIG Writing?
- It is a philosophy about writing, which was originally devised by Ros Wilson. (A former teacher and Ofsted Inspector.)
- It is based on the premise that to write well children need to be able to talk. They need to 'have a go'.
- It is a way to assess children's writing and provide targets for 'next steps'.
Bug Club
Bug Club is a finely levelled, phonically based reading scheme, which ensures that each child can find a book at exactly the right level for them. Each child has a personalised homepage where they will find the eBooks they have been allocated by the teacher and motivating rewards. Please click here to find out more about Bug Club.

Year 3 - Summer term
Year 4 - Autumn term
