Orono Wor Petchpun Still Interested in MMA But Says Coaching Commitments Come First
- Written by Dave Walsh
Orono Wor Petchpun was already a world renowned Muay Thai fighter so when he announced plans to make his MMA debut in 2012 there was a lot of interest in the international media. The former WMC, WPMF, Lumpinee, Thailand and It's Showtime! champion is still hoping to make an appearance in the cage but says other priorities have taken precedence,
"Everything that I have I owe to Muay Thai and now a lot of students in Singapore want to learn with me and it is an honour for me to be able to teach them this sport, even if it means I am very busy. I have trained MMA and would like to fight for ONE FC but I am very busy with teaching my classes and giving private lessons, I do not want to let my students down or disappoint them and I have won many belts and titles in my career so now is the time for me to help others instead of looking for glory for myself," he said.
Were he to make his MMA debut Orono would probably be the most decorated Muay Thai fighter to ever take up the sport. He faced the best of the best during his career which began when he was a teenager,
"I did not start Muay Thai until very late, I was 15 when I had my first fight. The reason that I decided to become a fighter was that I wanted to make money for my family. The place I am from, Suphanburi, is not very famous for producing fighters but I was able to be successful and to earn a lot of money by fighting,"he said.
Orono would go up against the best fighters of the era and, more often than not, emerge victorious. During his prime he was thrown in against the best pound for pound fighters in Thailand almost every month but had no hesitation in naming his most fearsome opponent,
"It was Singdam Kiatmoo9. We fought nine times I think and every time it was a very hard fight, he had a very strong kick. I fought with many big names including Saenchai, Buakaw, Nong-O and Yodsaenklai who I knocked out two times."
Buakaw and Yodsaenklai would go on to win international recognition, the former with K-1 and the latter with an appearance on 'The Contender Asia' reality series. Towards the tail end of his career Orono was offered the opportunity to fight outside of Thailand and he says this remains one of his fondest memories,
"To win a title at Lumpinee Stadium is the most difficult thing to do in Muay Thai and winning the belt was a special moment in my career but I was fortunate to get to fight in some other countries, something which many very good Thai fighters never get to do. I fought in Holland, Japan, Italy and Sweden and got paid as much as $10,000 for a fight which is more than I could ever have earned fighting in Thailand," he said.
Orono is a key member of the team of world champion trainers at Evolve MMA which also includes Namsaknoi Yudthagarngamtorn, Lamnanmmoon Sor Sumalee and Yodsanan Sityodtong. As well as teaching Muay Thai he also works every day with the fight team and says being in such an exciting environment has given him a new lease of life,
"Before I came to Singapore I did not know about MMA and I did not know who Shinya Aoki was but now I have been to a lot of live events and I think I understand this sport. Evolve MMA has the best trainers in the world and it was an honour for me to be invited to work here and to coach some very famous fighters, I have been training Muay Thai for 20 years now and I enjoy being able to teach the things that I have learned and to help fighters to win fights," he said.
Orono had a reputation as being an aggressive fighter and his style would be well suited to MMA. He has been studying the sport for several years now and finds helping young fighters to apply Muay Thai techniques inside the cage a very satisfying task,
"There are some differences, for instance you cannot use the clinch in the same way in an MMA fight as you can in a Muay Thai fight. When I teach an MMA fighter how to strike with their elbow or their knee and then they are able to use that to win a fight it gives me a very good feeling, I was lucky to have some good teachers during my career and I hope that I can help other fighters at Evolve MMA in the same way," he said.

Polmais and KM, do you ever use training drills involving a tight grouping of 5 to 8 bumpers?
Or do you only use one or two bumpers per destination at a time? The Irish trainer I've spoken to only uses one bumper per location to prevent shopping.
So do you prevent shopping in this way, or do you introduce the temptation in training in order to train it out?
Edit: As example, I found it interesting that the Irish trainer teaches/tests his dogs skills of casting, sending and whistle stopping using a drill called the "rotating diamond" instead of what most use here, the T or Double T. He has 4 destinations that form shape of a diamond 100 yds apart. He stands at one of the 4 spots and sends dog for directly opposite spot, whistle stops dog and casts to either back, left or right. Then switches to another of the 4 positions and runs again. Always having only one bumper or bird at each destination.

SINCE, then, we cannot set capital rolling up for our own use without the risk of creating frightful evils, what can we do with it? The old proverb that money breeds money is the text of all the books upon self‐help. Two shillings are certain to make twenty‐five pence. That little surplus produced by a day's work overtime, or because my head is better than yours (or vice versâ), is like a stick which will grow thicker and longer till it quadruples the power of the hand which holds it. And it will not remain quadruple; it will increase manifold till, in the hand of a Napoleon, it becomes an engine capable of hunting a million men to their destruction. Consider the pins—how they are made and what is their profit. Look at a steel "J" pen, and remember that this little thing accumulated one of the greatest picture galleries of modern times. page: 260 We are in the midst of immense forces which it would require a far more powerful brain than mine, or than, I think, Count Tolstoi's to define. But the thinkers have begun to analyze them, and the artists in merely following Ruskin have begun to paint their doings, and the thoughtful working man is crying out that they are devouring him and his brothers, and that their misdeeds must no longer be.
Of practical politics in this matter there seem to me to be but two. Some would throw the responsibility of the use of capital upon the State, and some have had faith in a sporadic movement, born of the popular conscience, and directed by a more educated popular thought. It is very difficult to see how the State could become an immense bureau, without frightful dangers occurring from any blow to the central power. In spite of the endless speculations of the Socialists of the type of Louis Blanc, it is plainly Fourier who will win the day. I cannot conceive the method by which all the complicated processes of victualling and clothing London could be organized by a central committee, and London is only one of many cities. page: 261 Let anyone ascend the dome of St. Paul's, or stand upon the Shropshire Wrekin, or count for one twelve hours the people passing the sculptured "Griffin" at Temple Bar, or take any other method by which the imagination may be assisted to grasp the vastness of a million units, and I think that State Socialism will be felt to be an intellectual dream. In the army and navy results are obtained by strict coercion—the welfare of the individual is quite a secondary matter. In the French navy two deserters were, not long ago, chained down in the hold; a punishment from which men never recover. A serious State Socialism would require its police and its prisons to control its deserters, and its successes would demand a co‐ordination of parts in which no joint or screw or rivet could go wrong.
But the same objection does not apply to the gradual growth of a Socialistic conscience; and this it is which is really growing, springing up every day in the most unlikely places. The "all things in common" of the early Christians is a doctrine regaining its place in England after centuries of disuse. In the religious Orders page: 262 private property is deliberately laid aside; the dower of the nun is absorbed in the common fund. In the Salvation Army everything is given up—of the 9000 officers, many of whom are married couples with children, not one has retained any portion of their private property; they are sustained by a common fund, which often runs low and causes privations of a severe kind.
The old theory of nobility controlled by the mediæval Church, provided for the redistribution of the funds accumulated by the big baron. He had to keep the baroness and the little barons suitably, and in all honour; he had to feed and clothe his men‐at‐arms. He dined with his servants who sat below the salt; he had his chaplain and his leech; and up to past middle life he was generally bullied by his nurse. In all the old romances and plays a decent baron behaved as such, or otherwise a neighbouring baron came and put an end to him.
It is only the modern capitalist who is really irresponsible. He may plan and plot and undersell, and if he has only the shrewd wit to maintain strict personal respectability, no one page: 263 has any claim upon him. He may be a miser in the household; he may live in a flat and marry his cook, or build a suburban palace outside the town where he has heaped up his gold, and support all the local charities. He may keep twenty servants, or hire them in relays like post‐horses. He may live entirely on his yacht, like one millionaire who has made the solid earth of the civilized world too hot to hold him; or like another enormously wealthy gentleman who for some years dwelt on the high seas with his neighbour's wife, being unable by reason of his nationality to pass any divorce court.
In England, it is true, the possession of immense wealth opens the way to nobler ambitions, but this is only because we have preserved the tattered fragments of the old flag, and they are still worth fighting for. The day may come when the capitalist can sit upon his pile, owning, even in England, no social master, and when his sole object will be to keep his equilibrium on an unstable heap of gold.
But though this picture be economically conceivable, there are other forces at work which threaten to abolish the cormorant, even as the page: 264 mediæval baron has been practically abolished; and more rapidly, for the modern sinner is much the worst, and his redeeming points are few. Power of brain and industry he must possess, and tenacious grip; but he appeals to none of the softer feelings or nobler emotions, and if he were got rid of, history would only remember him as a curious phenomenon of trade. Nobody will write romantic memoirs of him—the ruins of his dwelling will appeal to no tourist of the future—nor will the last capitalist be borne to his grave with any tribute of human tears.

[font=haettenschweiler]Double Feature![/font]
A scientist (Hugh Jackman) loses his grip on reality as he races against time to discover a cure for the tumor that's slowly killing his wife (Rachel Weisz) in 2006's The Fountain. The story blends two narratives that run side by side. In the first, Jackman is a modern-day scientist that uses a compound developed from rain forest tree moss to treat tumors in laboratory animals, only to learn that it reverses the effects of aging; and in the second story line Jackman is the conquistador hero in his wife's unfinished novel, who is ordered by the Spanish queen to find the Tree of Life, a fountain of immortality thought to be in Mayan territory and hidden by God when Adam and Eve were banished from Eden.
And I didn't watch the Super Bowl, but I did watch a football movie:
Football Coach Knute Rockne (Pat O'Brien) leads Notre Dame through victory and loss on and off the field in the smarmy 1940 biopic Knute Rockne, All American. The film starts with Rockne's not-so-humble beginnings in Norway to his college heydays popularizing the forward pass as a star football player at Notre Dame. After joining the faculty, he later becomes full-time coach for ill-fated George "The Gipper" Gipp (Ronald Reagan) and revolutionizes the game with the backfield "Notre Dame Shift," executed by star players The Four Horseman. And in the famous rivalry with Army and behind at the half, he rouses his team to victory by imploring them to win one for the Gipper.

I get books at a much faster rate than I read them. I am hoping to play catch up this year on books I got last year but never started, as well as start and finish new books published this year. So, here's what's on my list to read this year.
THE UNNAMED, Joshua Ferris – I read Ferris's debut novel THEN WE CAME TO THE END a couple years ago and enjoyed it, and have been looking forward to reading his second, which comes out in January 2010.
THE FINANCIAL LIVES OP POETS, Jess Walter – This book is highly recommended by Nick Hornby, my favorite author, and I actually purchased it before learning about that because I was
EMPIRE FALLS, Richard Russo – My boss recommended this book, and I bought it.
PLAN B, jonathan Tropper – Last year I read three of Tropper's novels, and have two more. This one is his debut novel (the first one I read was his new one, THIS IS WHERE I LEAVE YOU) which I started, but didn't finish. After this one is done, I move onto EVERYTHING CHANGES.
HOW WE ARE HUNGRY, Dave Eggers – I've been looking to read Dave Eggers for a while, and figure this collection of short fiction is a god place to start.
IT FEELS SO GOOD WHEN I STOP, Joe Pernice – Another book with high marks from Nick Hornby. I plan to get a copy at some point this year and read it.
There are other books on my shelf I hope to read this year as well, but the aforementioned books are higher priority reads. Of course, there are bound to be new releases that I am not aware of that I'll want to read and give high priority to, but for now, this is my short list of must reads for 2010… in actuality, I'll read more.
Not on the list is James Patterson, whose novels used to be absolute must-reads, but have now became When-I-Can-Get-To-Them books. Once a devoted fan of his Alex Cross series, I've felt his recent books of that series to be lazy and less developed as the early books of the series. The Maximum Ride series started off great, but after the second one, they took a horrible turn for the worst. A new book of the Alex Cross series (which i haven't read yet) came out last year and a new one of the Women's Murder Club series coming out this year, so I'll probably take a chance on them.

By Errol Castens/NEMS Daily Journal
Dear Mr. President: Thank you for your promise to make our country safer for children.
You noted Wednesday, "In the month since 20 precious children and six brave adults were violently taken from us at Sandy Hook Elementary, more than 900 of our fellow Americans have reportedly died at the end of a gun – 900 in the past month. And every day we wait, that number will keep growing."
Well said, Mr. President.
Yet there's an ongoing massacre that renders all the gun-related deaths that have ever happened in America statistically insignificant.
Since evil was unleashed at Sandy Hook, 3,315 children have been slaughtered in America – not in a month's time, but every DAY. (That's using 2008 statistics, the latest available from the Guttmacher Institute.)
That's a confirmed body count of more than 109,000 Americans killed in the United States from the Sandy Hook shooting until the hour you were outlining your anti-violence proposals, Mr. President.
Each of the 900 gun-related homicide and suicide victims you mention represents a tragedy, sir. But for every one person killed by firearms, 121 were killed by curette and forceps or poison – ripped out of their mothers' wombs, chemically scalded or stabbed in the head.
But no SWAT teams rush into abortion mills. Abortion victims' screams don't pierce the air. No anguished parents try to break through police barricades, desperately hoping against hope to find their children alive.
We keep this massacre behind closed doors, conveniently keeping the icky factor at arm's length.
The tragic death of 20 first-graders apparently gives you license to pass all kinds of new laws, constitutional or not, yet you dismiss the federally sanctioned slaughter of 50 million innocents in 40 years of Roe v. Wade as the exercise of a sacred right.
With all due respect, sir, you don't really believe that. As a father, you well remember that a gestating life is indeed a life.
You and Mrs. Obama loved Sasha and Malia while each was still unborn. You talked to them, sang to them, dreamed dreams for them. And surely you would have tried to protect them if anyone had threatened their lives in the womb.
And despite the legal blinders it has worn for 40 years, even the U.S. government recognizes gestating life as worthy of protection: Destroying an eagle egg is a crime punishable by prison and six-figure fines.
Who are we, Mr. President, to decide that unborn humans are less deserving of protection than unborn birds?
Here's another part of your speech from Wednesday: "[I]f there is even one thing we can do to reduce this violence, if there is even one life that can be saved, then we've got an obligation to try."
Mr. President, I'm sure if they had voices that the 50 million victims of America's biggest massacre would agree.

Hematologic Oncologist
Medical Director, Cytotherapy Laboratory
Conditions Treated:
About Me
I am a physician-scientist whose clinical focus is treating patients with hematologic malignancies, and I have particular expertise in allogeneic (donor-derived) hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for patients with leukemia, lymphoma, myelodysplastic syndrome, and multiple myeloma. At Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, we are pioneering a new type of stem cell transplantation in which we remove a specific subset of cells (T cells) from the donor's stem cells before the transplant; this significantly reduces the so-called graft-versus-host reactions. As the principle investigator, I am leading clinical trials to study the effectiveness of T cell-depleted transplants from related and unrelated donors in patients with high-risk multiple myeloma.
My research has focused on ways to reduce rates of disease recurrence following allogeneic stem cell transplantations. In particular, I am developing specific donor-derived immune cells (T lymphocytes) to treat both the viral complications of transplantation and disease relapse following transplantation. This treatment approach has been termed "adoptive immunotherapy" and we are testing it in several active clinical trials here at Memorial Sloan Kettering.
In my function as the Medical Director of the Cytotherapy Laboratory (Bone Marrow Transplantation Laboratory), I am establishing new T cell depletion techniques and other methods to manipulate donor stem cell products that will optimize patients' outcomes.

question on an overflow box
OK, so I'm almost finished with my nano tank that I built, already drilled, plumbed etc... the last thing I have to do is put the overflow box on... my question is... I've seen both types of overflow boxes, with the comb/teeth and then without them... my question is... cutting the teeth is proving to be a real b!tch... do I really need the teeth? or can i just have the box and let the water just flow over the top of it?
Is this a over flow box gravity based drain ?
You could always just cut the glass for the box a inch or two below your target max waterline and use some egg crate to make up the difference to bring it up about 1 inch over the water line
If you take your time to do the research FIRST, you can successfully set-up and keep ANY type of aquarium with ease.

NEW ALBANY – Tupelo Lady Wave coach Matt Justice wanted his squad to respond in a positive way on Saturday following a heartbreaking one-point division loss.
Justice got his wish as the LadyWave dispatched the Lafayette Lady Commodores 61-41 at the Renasant Bank Girls Challenge.
"We used a lot of energy last night, so I knew we would not be as sharp," said Justice, whose LadyWave lost 50-49 to Columbus on Friday. "The main thing is that we came in here and got a win."
The Lady Wave (10-7) moved swiftly to the lead in the first quarter. A pair of baskets by senior Casey Marshall pushed Tupelo up 10-4, and a three-point play by Zierra Long helped the LadyWave to an 18-9 lead.
Lafayette (7-5) kept it close in the second quarter, with a Janae Westbrook rebound and basket with 2 seconds left in the half to cut the margin to 30-25.
But the Lady Wave got it together out of the locker room, beginning the third quarter on an 11-2 run. Sophomore Jaleighia Polk capped the effort with a layup in transition, and Tupelo held a 41-27 lead.
"We're a young team, and limiting our turnovers and shot selection eludes us," Lafayette head coach Amy Sutton said. "We hurt ourselves not moving our feet, then letting them get to the foul line."
Polk scored 17 points for Tupelo, which plays its first Division 2-6A home game Tuesday against South Panola.
"We don't want to forget the Columbus loss," Justice said. "We want it to be the motivation for the rest of the season."
(G) NEW ALBANY 85, VARDAMAN 32: Jasmine Spears tossed in 29 to help the Lady Bulldogs (10-4). New Albany led 43-16 at the half.
(G) PONTOTOC 86, ASHLAND 41: Marlee Hatcher's 28 points paced the Lady Warriors, who led 46-15 at the half.

A friend of mine lost her BC yesterday in St. Francis MN. He is a 7 yr old intact male, classic black and white markings. He is wearing a blue Julius K-9 harness with labels Yogurt Bogurt on one side and Double Yogurt on the other. The closest intersection to where he was lost is 9 and 22. I am not familiar with the area but hopefully that means something to those of you that live there. He is probably very scared but he is a friendly dog. If you see him there are several contact numbers.
I will try to post a picture later but I can't access facebook at work to pull the photo down. If you are familiar with Elicia Calhoun's lost dog facebook page there is a photo there.

Lycopene is a natural compound found in plants. It's involved in photosynthesis and helps to protect plants from damage due to constant exposure to light. It's lycopene that gives certain plant foods their vibrant red color including tomatoes, pink grapefruit, papaya, guava, watermelon, goji berries and apricots. These foods are some of the best sources of this strong antioxidant pigment. Humans can't make lycopene, and it's not a dietary requirement, but research shows that lycopene may have health benefits.
Because of its antioxidant properties and its ability to keep inflammation in check, lycopene may lower the risk of some diseases including heart disease and certain types of cancer. Lycopene is more potent from an antioxidant standpoint than vitamin E, as much as 100 times more powerful. That puts it in a special class among molecules that help to prevent oxidative damage, the type of damage that occurs to cells from exposure to oxygen.
Unfortunately, most people don't get enough lycopene in their diet. The best way to get lycopene is by eating tomatoes that have been heated or processed from sources like tomato sauce and ketchup. The lycopene in raw, unprocessed tomatoes can't be as readily used by the body. There are also lycopene supplements available.
Lycopene also offers skin benefits because of its antioxidant properties. When skin is exposed to sunlight, it causes free radicals to form. Free radicals damage skin cells and cells that produce collagen and elastin. They also activate enzymes that break down collagen. This is one mechanism by which sun exposure causes premature aging and skin cancer. Lycopene, by acting as an antioxidant and a powerful free radical quencher, may reduce this type of damage. It's well-suited to protect skin cells since it works best in a lipid-rich environment like the skin.
With so many people worried about ingredients in sunscreens, lycopene appears to have natural sun protective benefits. In a study published in the British Society for Investigative Dermatology in 2008, researchers assigned participants to a diet high in lycopene for 3 months. Another group ate a regular diet to serve as a control group. The results? The group that ate a lycopene-rich diet enjoyed 33% greater protection against the sun's damaging rays. That's the equivalent of a sun protection factor or SPF of 1.3. That's not good enough to throw away your sunscreen, but lycopene offers additional protection against the sun that goes above and beyond standard sunscreen products.
What's even more exciting about lycopene is the effect it has on collagen production. When researchers took skin samples from participants in the lycopene study, they found the participants that ate the lycopene-rich diet had higher levels of pro-collagen in their skin. Pro-collagen is the precursor to collagen, a protein that gives skin its support and youthful firmness. Collagen levels decline with age, which is partially responsible for the wrinkling and saggy skin that comes with age. Lycopene may help to replace some of this lost collagen.
With all of the good positive news about lycopene and its effects on the skin, it's not surprising that manufacturers of cosmetics and skin care products are adding lycopene to their products. Some cosmetic products that contain lycopene include anti-aging treatments, facial moisturizers, eye creams, lip gloss and lipstick. In lip gloss and lipstick, lycopene serves as a colorant. Absorption of lycopene from skin creams doesn't appear to be a problem. It's lipid-soluble, which makes it easily absorbed across the lipid barrier of the skin. It has a bright orange color and can color the skin if a product contains a high concentration.
Lycopene appears to be safe cosmetic ingredient. In fact, it has health benefits. The Environmental Working Group classifies it as a low hazard cosmetic ingredient. That means you can feel safe putting it on your skin. Lycopene generally doesn't cause skin irritation, although there are reports of allergies to lycopene. When used orally in supplement form, it can cause mild stomach upset for some people but is usually well tolerated.

Speaking Event: Cities Will Save the Planet with Alex Steffen
How do cities succeed in the age of climate consequences? 2012 saw some of the most extreme weather events ever recorded, from record floods to rising seas, polar ice melt to epic droughts, Australian megafires to Hurricane Sandy's unprecedented storm surge. At the same time, urbanization has hit a breakneck pace, with increasingly cosmopolitan cities around the world pushing a new wave of technological innovations and urban solutions. How does a planet of cities respond to a planet in crisis — and what does that mean for us? In a special evening talk with SPUR, Alex Steffen — one of the world's leading voices on sustainability and the future of cities — presents his provocative ideas for understanding how urbanization can save the planet, and how San Francisco and the Bay Area can thrive amidst massive change. Watch Alex's TED Talk, "The Shareable Future of Cities," and read his new book, Carbon Zero. Cocktail reception to follow.

Arts groups to perform in fundraiser
Posted September 24, 2008; 11:23 a.m.
Nine Princeton performing arts groups will present a show Friday and Saturday, Sept. 26-27, to raise funds for an international nonprofit microfinance organization.
The performance, titled "''Princeton 5,000 for 5,000: Princeton Performs for Change" is set for 7 p.m. in the Frist Campus Center theater. It will feature Sympoh, BodyHype, eXpressions, Capoeira, Naacho, Tigerlilies, Nassoons, Black Arts Company-Dance and Raks Odalisque.
The goal is to raise $5,000 from about 5,000 people at Princeton in order to create a village bank through FINCA, an international nonprofit microfinance organization, in order to encourage investment and economic growth in the developing world.
All technical and crew members for the show are volunteers, so that all ticket proceeds can go directly to the fundraiser.
Tickets are $7 and are on sale at the Frist ticket office or online through University Ticketing.
The event is sponsored by the newly formed Princeton Microfinance Organization.

Charles Centinaro, director of the Office of Attorney Ethics (OAE) of the New Jersey Supreme Court, has announced the release of the 2011 Attorney Disciplinary System Report.
The OAE investigates allegations of serious attorney misconduct and files formal complaints when warranted. In addition to its investigative and prosecutorial responsibilities, the OAE oversees 18 district ethics committees, 17 district fee arbitration committees, the random audit program, and the annual attorney registration process. Its annual report contains detailed information and statistics on each of these areas. The report can be found online at judiciary.state.nj.us.
OAE Report Highlights
Improvements in Case Processing
The OAE continued to make significant improvements in case processing. It improved the timeliness of its investigations, resulting in 83 percent of its investigations being completed within established time goals. The district ethics committees (DECs) also improved the timeliness of their investigations, and 76 percent of those were completed within established time goals.
Investigations and Formal Complaints
In 2011, a total of 1,392 new investigations were added, a 2.7 percent decline from the 2010 total of 1,431 investigations. The OAE filed 310 complaints, an increase of 32 percent over the 240 complaints filed in 2010. The report notes that the increase is largely due to multiple complaints filed against some attorneys.
Public Discipline
Disciplinary sanctions are imposed by the Supreme Court and include both final discipline, which is imposed after the completion of an investigation, hearing and review by the Disciplinary Review Board, and emergent actions, which are imposed to protect the public while the disciplinary case is pending.
The report reflects a 6.3 percent increase in the number of attorneys sanctioned by the Supreme Court, from 160 in 2010 to 171 in 2011. These totals include all attorneys on whom final discipline was imposed as well as those against whom emergent action was taken.
The orders for final discipline issued in 2010 included:
The Supreme Court also issued 33 temporary license suspensions and two license restrictions in 2010.
Suspended attorneys can apply for reinstatement with the Supreme Court. The application is reviewed by the OAE, the Disciplinary Review Board, and the Supreme Court. In 2011, the Supreme Court granted reinstatement to 13 attorneys, an 8.3 percent increase from 2010, when 12 attorneys were reinstated.
Fee Arbitration Program
The fee arbitration program, adopted by the Supreme Court in 1978, provides a neutral, confidential forum in which clients and attorneys can resolve legal fee disputes. The 17 fee arbitration committees rely on approximately 280 volunteers, both attorneys and members of the public, to determine the appropriateness of attorneys' fees. In 2011, the program received 922 new filings and resolved 1,052 fee matters involving $14.1 million in legal fees.
Random Audit Program
The OAE conducts random audits of private law firms that handle client funds to ensure their compliance with the Supreme Court's stringent rules on financial recordkeeping. The purpose of the program is to protect the public from those few attorneys who misuse client funds and to educate and inform attorneys about proper accounting procedures. As a result of the audit program, final sanctions ranging from admonishment through disbarment were imposed on seven attorneys in 2011, including five disbarments.

Putting the CD on while driving a few days later, Wahlberg heard two songs that spoke to him powerfully. "I got in the car in Boston on my birthday and I popped it in," he recalls." The first song was called "Click, Click, Click" and from the minute it started, it just grabbed me. I kept waiting for this kid to falter, but he never did. Not only that -- I immediately recognized that Joey McIntryre is going to love this record, Jordan Knight is going to love this record and I love this record. The music speaks to all of our sensibilities, but they're all totally different. It was hip-hop and honest enough for me. It was soulful enough for Jordan and pop and unselfish enough for Joe. It just had it all. I spent the next few hours driving up to girls at red lights and playing them the song. They said, `Is that your song?' I said `Not yet.'"

If I was granted one wish, it would be the ability to bottle Senegal. Imagine that, the essence of a beautiful, mind-wangling, topsy-turvy place caught in a bottle. My idea of perfection; to sit getting drunk on the Senegalese atmosphere. Nothing else could capture the rhythm of life. The beauty of the African sunset over the Atlantic Ocean, the bobbing pirogues with their vibrant colours, 'REAL MADRID' painted in swirly black writing next to a Senegalese flag. After a while, you forget about the rubbish that lines the streets, the plastic bags, the fish scales, the bottles and cans and papers. Instead you see the blue of the sky, hear the clip-clop of the horses pulling their wooden carts, smell the fish they are transporting. I haven't always thought this way about my town. One early-on diary entry reads 'I live in a pigsty, Joal is a dump.' But now it's almost difficult to remember that way of thinking
The lazy market where vendors while away their hours making ataya, strong sweet tea, debating football or money or politics in their sharp wolof tones. 'Wey-yo! Bayil ngay wax! Danga doff!' The serer women stroll in their bright, stunning boubous. Seldom are the streets empty of locals sitting, chatting, laughing. Don't forget to greet everyone, shake their hands as if they've been your lifelong friends and make sure there are at least 5 greetings, in at least 3 languages. 'Asaalam alekium!' 'Maleikum salam!' 'Nanga def?' 'Mangi fi!' 'Ca va?' 'Waaw, ca va bien' 'Yangi noss?' 'Noss bi yam rek' 'Ana wer ker ga?' 'Nyunga fa!' 'yangi si jam?' 'Jamm rek!' The bustle of the streets as the kids amble around, half-dressed, dirty-faced, yelling 'katty toubab' and chasing me with dead chickens. The jambaar women carrying a baby on their back and a bucket of water on their head, going home to cook the delicious thieboudien. The one paved road of Joal, where the spluttering, unworthy-of-an-MOT cars, monstrous lorries, wandering goats, students cycling 15 kilometers to-and-from school, donkeys pulling carts and falling-apart minibuses with kids hanging out of the back fight to be king of the road
But at the centre of it all, the people… the lovely old man from church who buys me coffee (liquid sugar in a plastic cup) as we walk home, the fruit seller who gives a handful of free bananas because I manage to splurt out something in Pulaar, the choir conductor who does a mean impression of the queen and talks to donkeys, the basketball coach who never stops smiling, the enthusiastic and cheeky students who speak English with a grin etched across their faces. They're what make Joal.
If I could, I'd send you a bottle of Joal so that you could taste it too.
P.S. Very sorry I haven't updated my blog in so long – I have been so busy with work, travelling and just generally yanging my noss! I will post soon about what I've been up to. Sending lots of love xxxx

We were at Target this weekend and I was looking through the DVDs. They had a series of DVDs with 3 episodes of The Muppet Show on each. Of course, I had to buy the DVD that had the episode where Luke, R2, C-3PO, and Chewbacca on it. Of course, I hadn't seen that episode since it aired waaaaaay back in the day.geez, I'm getting old
So, I popped it in and watched it with my daughter and I came up with these notes:
--Mark Hammil is a cheese ball.
--Anthony Daniels can tap-dance really well in that C-3PO costume. I was suprised he had that much mobility.
--Chewbacca was naked. He was missing his bandolier. (Chewbacca isn't that good of a dancer)
Anyway, the Paul Simon episode wasn't bad. I didn't finish watching the Raquel Welch episode...it was an interesting combo: "Stars of Star Wars," Paul Simon, and Raquel Welch.

This document was very controversial since many people were apparently expecting the Catholic Church to change her teaching and accept birth control. Of course, the Church did NOT do this. In this study, you will see how the Holy Father's words concerning the consequences of accepting birth control turned out to be prophetic. This book has four chapters/lessons and includes answers.

|If you want to improve your health, slow aging and get to a good weight, you have to eat a nutritious diet. Understanding what that means isn't so hard. Putting that knowledge into practice with a hectic schedule and less-than-stellar food choices available at every turn — well, that's where things get challenging. One of the best ways to guarantee you'll be successful at eating right, say experts: a well-stocked kitchen.

|"If you have healthy foods on hand, you will be much more inclined to stay on track with your nutrition program," says Amy Jamieson-Petonic, MEd, RD, CSSD, director of coaching at the Cleveland Clinic and creator of the online eating program GO! Foods for You. After all, with the right ingredients in your pantry and fridge, throwing together a good-for-you meal can be quicker, tastier and certainly less expensive than takeout.

|We asked Jamieson-Petonic and other Cleveland Clinic healthy-eating pros about the ingredients they keep on hand to stack the nutrition odds in their favor. First and foremost, they vote for fresh fruits and vegetables. "I always say to buy local and in season when you can," says Jamieson-Petonic. The reason? Local, in-season produce is often the least expensive; it also tends to taste the best and have a high concentration of nutrients since it hasn't been in transit for days.

|An inexpensive source of dietary fiber, B vitamins and antioxidants, beans offer a combination of carbohydrates and protein that will keep you feeling full for hours. What's more, they are extremely versatile, says Jamieson-Petonic. Wondering whether it's worth the time to hydrate your own beans? Bottom line: Both canned and dried beans are packed with nutrients and extremely economical. If you use canned ones, just be sure to rinse them well to cut the sodium by as much as one-third.

|Whether they're dried, fresh or frozen, herbs and spices add a depth of flavor and intrigue to your meals without adding calories or sodium. And as a bonus, they're a potent source of disease-fighting antioxidants. "There's good evidence that many herbs and spices have all kinds of health benefits," says Roxanne Sukol, MD, MS, the medical director of Wellness Enterprise at the Wellness Institute at the Cleveland Clinic Foundation. "For example: Turmeric is an anti-inflammatory." So which are the best to include in your diet? As many as you can, says Sukol. "The greater variety you eat, the more likely you are to hit on something that's healthful for you at the moment."

|"Both are high in omega-3s," says Kirkpatrick. And aside from being inexpensive sources of heart-healthy fats and protein, both have added bonuses: Canned salmon is usually caught wild, which means it has fewer pollutants and more omega-3s than farmed fish, and sardines can also be a good source of calcium since they usually contain small, barely noticeable bones. Frozen salmon burgers are another less-expensive, in-a-pinch fish option, says Kirkpatrick.

|It's great to have a fridge full of fresh fruits and veggies — but the reality is, produce isn't always readily available in much of the country. And when it's shipped from far away, it loses much of its nutrient content. Enter frozen produce. "In the summer, I buy fresh. I don't always do that in winter because I want to get the most nutrients," says Kirkpatrick. Frozen produce can also come in handy if you live alone or your family has trouble using certain veggies before they go bad.

"There's a lot you can do with eggs," says Kirkpatrick, from snacking on a hard-boiled egg to whisking them into a quick omelet or scramble for lunch or dinner.

BARABOO, Wis. - Operators of Circus World, the Baraboo museum rich in the history of the Ringling brothers, asked community members Thursday to help them stay independent of the state.
Gov. Scott Walker's budget proposal calls for a state takeover, along with a funding increase, for the attraction.
About 80 people came to a town hall meeting Thursday. They included state Rep. Fred Clark, D-Sauk City, who said he opposed the takeover but would advocate for a state audit of an ongoing debt dispute between Circus World and the Wisconsin Historical Society, which would also include an audit of the museum's operations.
The museum's operators said they would have trouble paying the bills in 2014 and said they and the Wisconsin Historical Society directors agreed that more state money was necessary.
The state currently owns the museum but a private group of donors runs it. A state takeover would make those donors outcasts, said Steve Freese, Circus World's executive director.
"Why would you just discard them as if they're no use anymore, when they have shown they can very successfully do the fundraising?" he said.
Circus World's operators point to bigger crowds over the past five years, while attendance at the state-run Old World Wisconsin attraction near Eagle has faltered.
Historical Society Director Ellsworth Brown was in the crowd Thursday, at one point rising to refute what Freese was saying.Circus World, historical society debate state takeover
"What you didn't hear was the amazing depth and range of the Wisconsin historical society," he said.
Accusations that funding for the museum would fall apart under government operation are false, Brown said.
"It might be most efficient to use an existing state agency that's accountable, that runs 11 other sites around the state, whose job it is to market, to organize staff, to organize programs and to engage people," he said.
Walker's budget proposal now sits in the state legislature.

Release Date. 30/01/12
Catalogue Number. BDDNL196
Wiley builds up to the birthday release of his new album, Evolve Or Be Extinct, with the club smasher "Boom Blast". Produced by Most Wanted Mega, "Boom Blast" sees Wiley spitting pure party lyrics over a low-slung, bass-led groove. With enough vocal hooks to keep an angler in fish for a decade, this is perhaps the most immediate tune from the Godfather of Grime™ since "Rolex", three minutes thirty of energy and good humour.
The package is completed by three excellent remixes. Herner Werzog takes
the tune into housier territory, giving things a distinctly cartoonish
feel, whereas Sticky hardens up the funk and gives Wiley the disco
work-out of his life. Wiley's loyal soldier Alex D comes with the
crunch-funk in a superb electronic reinterpretation.
Evolve Or Be Extinct is perhaps WIley's most complete album to date, showing many facets of his fascinating and at times contradictory character. It will be released on Thursday 19 January because that's Wiley's birthday and that's what he wanted. Go figure.

Type 1 diabetes, previously known as juvenile diabetes, is an autoimmune disease in which the body does not produce the hormone insulin. There is no known way to prevent type 1 diabetes.
Type 2 diabetes, previously known as adult-onset diabetes, is a metabolic disease in which the body does not make enough insulin or use it effectively. Type 2 diabetes can be prevented or delayed by maintaining a healthy weight and exercising regularly.
Gestational diabetes occurs in pregnant women who have never had diabetes before but have higher than normal blood glucose levels during pregnancy. Without intervention, women with gestational diabetes have a 40-60 percent chance of developing type 2 diabetes within 5-10 years.
Prediabetes is a condition that raises the risk of developing type 2 diabetes, heart disease and stroke. People with prediabetes have blood glucose levels higher than normal but not high enough to be classified as diabetes. Without intervention, about 25 percent of people with prediabetes will develop diabetes within 3-5 years.

Family: Anatidae, Ducks and Geese view all from this family
Description ADULT MALE Has proportionately large, rounded, iridescent purple head with very steep forehead and vertical white crescent marking just behind base of bill. Ladder of white markings can be seen on otherwise black back; black extends forward as prominent "spur" shape in swimming birds. Vent is black, but neck and underparts are otherwise white. Note the beady yellow eye. First-winter plumage has colors of adult female, but hint of adult's facial crescent. ADULT FEMALE Dark brown head separated from gray-brown body plumage by pale neck. Bill is mostly dull orange-yellow (color confined to tip in female Common), but a bit darker in summer. JUVENILE Similar to adult female, but bill and eye are dark.
Dimensions Length: 16 1/2 -20" (42-51 cm)
Habitat Local in east (far more widespread in western North America). In summer, found on Arctic lakes and ponds. Most move to sheltered coasts in winter.
Observation Tips Search northern coasts in winter.
Range Eastern Canada, New England, California, Northwest, Plains, Great Lakes, Alaska, Western Canada, Rocky Mountains, Mid-Atlantic, Southwest
Voice Mostly silent.
Discussion Compact diving duck that feeds on aquatic invertebrates. Similar to Common Goldeneye, but note Barrow's steeper forehead and smaller bill. Adult male's crescent shaped (not oval) white face patch is diagnostic, and greater extent of black on back is a useful distinguishing feature. In flight, white on inner upper wing is less extensive than in Common Goldeneye.

Publication 101, Sales Delivered Outside California
March 2014
- Interstate and
Foreign Commerce
- Special Delivery
- Documenting your Sale
and Delivery
- Registration Requirements
and Reporting
- Additional Information
Sales tax generally does not apply to your transaction when you sell a product and ship it directly to the purchaser at an out-of-state location, for use outside California. Your sale is not taxable if you:
- Ship the product directly to the purchaser, using your own delivery vehicle or another means of transport that you own; or
- Ship the product by delivering it to a common carrier (including the U.S. Postal Service), contract carrier, customs broker, export packer, or forwarding agent (see Note, below); or,
- Sell items that will be used in other countries, deliver the product in a way that meets the special delivery conditions explained below; or
- Sell new, noncommercial vehicles to foreign residents, deliver the vehicle in a way that meets specific conditions explained in Regulation 1620, Interstate and Foreign Commerce.
In most cases, if a purchaser or their representative takes possession of an item in Californiaeven temporarilyyour sale does not qualify for this particular sales tax exemption. The sale is taxable even though the fabricator may later ship the property out of state according to its contract with the customer. In addition, if you deliver an item to a California resident at an out-of-state location, you should apply tax unless the purchaser states, in writing, that the item was purchased for use outside California. For additional information, please see publication 34, Motor Vehicle Dealers, and Regulation 1620, Interstate and Foreign Commerce, also available by calling our Customer Service Center at 800-400-7115.
Note: An individual or firm does not qualify as a carrier, forwarding agent, export packer, or customs broker simply because a purchaser designates them to receive and ship goods to a point outside the state. They must be regularly engaged in the shipping or transporting business.
Note: This publication summarizes the law and applicable regulations in effect when the publication was written, as noted above. However, changes in the law or in regulations may have occurred since that time. If there is a conflict between the text in this publication and the law, decisions will be based on the law and not on this publication.
Products bound for a foreign country in an airplane, ship, or other conveyance furnished by the purchaser
Certain other sales may qualify as tax-exempt foreign exports. The means of transportation and the nature of the property shipped must provide certainty that the property is headed for a foreign country and that it will not be diverted for use in this country. For example, your sale may be considered a tax-exempt export if you deliver the merchandise to:
- A purchaser's airplane, ship, or other conveyance (not a car or pickup truck) that will transport the item to another country; or
- A scheduled commercial carrier hired by the purchaser to transport the property to another country.
You must obtain special documentation that demonstrates the property is bound for a foreign country on a continuous journey (see Documenting your sale and delivery).
Determining whether your sale meets the required criteria can be difficult. If you are unsure whether your sale qualifies as tax-exempt, please contact the Board of Equalization (BOE) for help at 800-400-7115.
It is important to retain documents in your records that will support any tax exemptions you claim for sales delivered outside California. Examples are given below.
Deliveries made with your own vehicle or with another means of transport that you own:
- Delivery receipts
- Expense voucher supporting delivery expense
- Purchase order or correspondence supporting shipping requirements and completion of delivery
Deliveries to customs brokers, export packers, or forwarding agents:
- Bills of lading
- Copies of import documents of the foreign country
- Notation on invoice of delivery
- Invoices for services of customs broker or forwarding agent
- Delivery receipts
Deliveries made for you by a common or contract carrier:
- Bills of lading
- Express or parcel post receipts; express company invoices
- Sales invoices showing postage
- Record of parcel post shipment charges and shipping instructions
- Freight invoices
Deliveries to a carrier owned by the purchaser and bound for a foreign country (see Special delivery conditions):
- Bills of lading or other documents showing that delivery was made directly to the carrier
- Copy of transportation plan showing that carrier was bound for a foreign country
- Import documents of the foreign country, other documentary evidence of export, or evidence that the item was designed for use in the foreign country or altered for use there
Deliveries to scheduled commercial carriers hired by the purchaser to export property (see Special delivery conditions):
- Bill of lading or other document showing property was delivered directly to the carrier
- Documentary evidence of transportation plan showing that property will be transported on a continuous journey to a foreign destination and not diverted for use in California
California Sellers Permit
When you sell or lease merchandise, vehicles, or other tangible personal property in California, even temporarily, you are generally required to register with the BOE and to pay sales tax on your taxable sales. Although, in some cases, a seller's permit is not required to be held by persons whose sales are made exclusively in interstate or foreign commerce; however, your business may meet the requirements of a "qualified purchaser," and you may be required to register for a use tax account as discussed below.
Required registration to report use tax
California law requires a "qualified purchaser" to register with the BOE and annually report and pay use tax directly to the BOE. Reporting and paying the use tax is done through our eFiling system. A "qualified purchaser" includes any business with at least $100,000 in annual gross receipts from business operations. Gross receipts are the total of all receipts from both in-state and out-of-state business operations. For additional information, see publication 126, Mandatory Use Tax Registration for Service Enterprises.
Properly completing your sales and use tax return
You must report your total gross sales for the reporting period when submitting your sales and use tax return. If your gross sales include amounts for nontaxable sales delivered outside California, take a deduction for those amounts under Sales in Interstate and Foreign Commerce. If you don't take the deduction, you'll pay more tax than you owe.
Online Registration
You can register on our website at www.boe.ca.gov, by selecting New Registration, and then Pay use tax, file and exemption or request a tax clearance. You can also register in person at any of our field offices. Please contact our Customer Service Center for assistance at 1-800-400-7115 (TTY:711).

CONWAY, Ark. (AP) -- Cody Stroud threw three touchdown passes and Ryan Bronson had a 98-yard interception touchdown return to help McNeese State roll past Central Arkansas 59-28 in a Southland Conference matchup Saturday night.

The Bears (2-3, 0-1) tied the game at 21 in the second quarter when Wynrick Smothers connected with Damien Watts for a 39-yard touchdown. McNeese State countered with three unanswered touchdowns, highlighted by wide receiver Diontae Spencer throwing a 46-yard TD to Jereon McGilvery.
Smothers was 35 of 65 for 484 yards, but had three interceptions.

(2003 vintage, 750ml bottle) :
January 8, 2007 , James Janega
"Gigondas, along with the neighboring villages of Vacqueyras and Chôteauneuf-du-Pape, produces the finest red wines of the southern Rhône. Relying upon old vines of Grenache, married to lesser quantities of Syrah, Mourvèdre, and Cinsault, Gigondas turns out a startling array of big, beautiful, tasty reds from nearly 2,500 acres of vineyards. Spanning a combination of soils, from the gravelly clay of the flat plains at the base of the craggy Dentelles de Montmirail, to the sheer bedrock of the Dentelles themselves, Gigondas is testament to the belief that in this enchanted corner of Provence one can even extract blood from stones, in the form of deeply colored Gigondas. Originally the premier village in the sprawling Côtes du Rhône-Villages appellation, Gigondas was elevated to its own appellation in 1971. Quickly, Gigondas made a name for itself; and after several decades of notoriety, the wine that bears the name of Gigondas has taken the world of wine by storm. Yet, the village of Gigondas itself remains one of the prettiest and least spoiled of the comely hilltop villages in this corner of Provence known as the Vaucluse. Nevertheless, Gigondas is a wine that has captured the palate of critics and savvy consumers alike. Today, the wines of Gigondas are highly sought after in fine wine shops around the world and they are increasingly well represented at upscale restaurants, whose clientele can appreciate the bold, extroverted, savory nature of this appellation's red wine. For the record, tiny quantities if white and rosé wine are also made in Gigondas, but only the red wine of this endearing appellation is entitled to the name Gigondas. Tasting Notes: The 2003 Domaine Raspail-Ay Gigondas is one sexy, seductive wine, owing its allure to a combination of expert winemaking and the searing summer heat of 2003. Gigondas is, perhaps, best known for its rustic charm and unfailing ability to ward off the chill of a cold winter night . . . and Dominique's Ay's heaven scented, full flavored, sensual 2003 Gigondas can more than fill that bill; it reflects back every bit of the glorious warmth of a Provencal summer that is so thankfully captured in every glass. It may be cold outside, but it won't be inside, not as long as this fine Gigondas is open. The 2003 Domaine Raspail-Ay Gigondas offers up plenty of flavors to savor, too, including black fruits, oriental spice, and more, all if which are set in a silky smooth body and a sea of soft tannin. The 2003 Raspail-Ay Gigondas is a pleasure to drink now. Yet, it will continue to develop additional complexity over the next 4 to 5 years. We highly recommend allowing this hedonistic Gigondas a few minutes of aeration before serving. In addition, this charming Provencal delight is at its best when served cool (60°-66° F). Anticipated maturity; now-2011. Santé! Accompaniments: As a child of the southern Rhône, the 2003 Domaine Raspail-Ay Gigondas provides a superb match for grilled meats, especially lamb or chicken flavored with rosemary, garlic and black pepper. With such a glorious combination, we guarantee you will soon be picturing the rocky terrain of the "garrigue" of the southern Rhône, inhaling the scents of rosemary, lavender and wild flowers that infuse the summer air, and feeling the refreshing shade of a hot summer's day — Provence in a glass. What more can one ask? If you can't make a trip to the south of France, a glass of this wine is most assuredly the next best thing. However, with all this talk about Provence, let us not forget the surfeit of culinary delights that await the intrepid gastronome, dishes like Ravioli Stuffed Lobster, Roast Quail, and sumptuous Ratatouilles. Traditional Italian favorites, such as Lasagna, Manicotti, and almost anything else with fresh tomato sauce, garlic, or olive oil, marry well with Dominique Ay's superb Gigondas as well, so set the table and let the good times roll. Enjoy! "

"Dark red. Flamboyant red berry and floral nose accented by a strong garrigue character. Pure red fruit flavors expand through a long, sweet finish, with gentle, dusty tannins giving the wine shape and grip. With air, this displayed a fascinating array of fruit, mineral and floral tones." Best 2007-2017

Automakers Eye Weight Reductions to Meet Fuel Economy Goals
Shane McGlaun

Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Hydroforming and new welding methods help reduce vehicle weight
New CAFE standards
have automakers reaching for any technology they can find to help improve fuel economy. Many manufacturers are going to electric vehicles or hybrids to increase their overall fleet mileage averages. The problem with focusing only on hybrids and electric vehicles, however, is that most consumers aren't in the market for that type of vehicle.
On traditional gasoline-powered vehicles, automakers are increasingly turning to weight savings as a way to help improve fuel economy. The lighter a vehicle can be made, the less weight the engine has to push or pull around and the less fuel it uses because engines could be made smaller without sacrificing performance.
Some automakers are even turning to removing some features of cars such as CD players and the spare tire to reduce weight according to the
Detroit News
. Both General Motors and Ford are turning to new processes in vehicle assembly to help remove weight from the body of mainstream vehicles.
2013 Ford Fusion
Many automakers are using aluminum rather than steel to help reduce the weight of their vehicles. Hoods, trunks, and lift gates as well as door skins are commonly made from aluminum today. Ford is also
experimenting with carbon fiber
on the Focus.
Switching to lighter materials isn't the only way automakers are going about reducing the weight of the vehicles they produce. They're also reducing weight by changing the manufacturing processes used. Ford, for instance, is using hydroforming on the steel structural pillars of its
2013 Fusion
One of the big benefits of hydroforming is that it allows the forming of complicated and larger parts that don't need to be welded together. Traditional stamping produces multiple parts that have to be welded at joints. Those joints are points of weakness and add weight. Using hydroforming, rather than other forms of stamping, sheds 18 pounds from each car by eliminating the additional welds.
GM is also doing its part testing a thermal-forming process for lightweight magnesium that weighs 75% less than steel. GM also plans to use a patented welding technology to allow the company to integrate more aluminum into automotive bodies by saving the company from using rivets to join aluminum body panels. The use of the welding process rather than rivets will cut nearly 2 pounds from parts such as hoods, lift gates, and doors.
