1998 GMC Sonoma SLS Supercharged http://www.barnfineclassics.com/inventory/1998-gmc-sonoma-sls-supercharged Here's a one family owned, super low miles, GMC Sonoma SLS! The truck has only 32k miles on it! And if that's not unbelievable enough, it also has a supercharged 4.3L V6 and a Transco built automatic transmission with a shift kit! The engine is a the original 4.3L with a Powerdyne Supercharger, MSD 6A box, MSD wires, Granatelli mass air flow sensor, JBA Cat4Ward headers, dual Flowmaster Exhaust, complete K&N air intake system, air conditioning, and power steering! The truck was Dyno'd between 400-425hp! This is the factory SLS sport edition of the Sonoma, so it came with a posi-trac rear end, lowered suspension (plus 1 inch of aftermarket rear lowering), and sway bars. The truck has had the front brakes upgrade to larger calipers and cross drilled/slotted rotors to slow all the new found power down! The battery has been relocated to a very cleanly installed box in the bed. Inside you'll find an interior that still looks and feels brand new! It has bucket seats, fold down rear seats, factory CD player, power windows, power mirrors, power doors, and there's a custom center console for the B&M ratchet shifter and Autometer Boost and vacuum gauges that looks factory as well! The truck is equipped with an anti theft system from the factory to keep all your stuff safe too! The exterior of the truck shows just how little use this thing has gotten! The paint is in great shape, it has a Truxedo bed cover, the bed is Rhino-lined, and it has an attractive set of 17 inch American Racing wheels with sticky Yokohama ES100 tires! (225/45/17 fronts and 275/40/17 rears) The truck comes with a Crane Cams PowerMax power tuner in case you ever need to have the dealership look at something. The truck can have the tune returned to stock for that. This Sonoma is as clean and sharp as they come! All the right products and equipment were used to build this subtle rocket ship!

1991 GMC Syclone Drag Racing Racelegal.com 1-6-2012 friday night watch as this 1991 gmc syclone drag races on the 1/8 mile drag strip. GMC Syclone is a high-performance version of the GMC Sonoma pickup truck. Produced in 1991, the Syclone spawned the similarly powered 1992-1993 GMC Typhoon SUV. Another vehicle, the GMC Sonoma GT, offered less performance but was seen as a companion model. At the time it was introduced, the Syclone was the quickest stock pickup truck being produced in the world. Auto magazines compared its acceleration favorably to a variety of sports cars including the Corvette and - in a memorable comparison test in Car and Driver magazine - a Ferrari. Featuring a turbocharged 6-cylinder engine, all wheel drive, and 4 wheel anti-lock brakes, the specifications had more in common with a Porsche than most other pickup trucks. Both the Syclone and Typhoon trucks featured a Mitsubishi TD06-17C 8 cm² turbocharger[1] and Garrett water/air Intercooler attached to a 4.3 L LB4 V6 engine with unique pistons, main caps, head gaskets, intake manifolds, fuel system, Exhaust manifolds, and a 48mm twin bore throttle body from the 5.7 L GM Small-Block engine. All Syclones and Typhoons had a 700R4 (4L60) 4-speed automatic transmission. A Borg Warner all wheel drive transfer case split torque with 35% forward and 65% to the rear wheels.[1] Both trucks featured sport modifications to the standard suspensions. The Syclone was the first production truck to receive a 4 wheel anti-lock braking system. Output was 280 hp (209 kW) and 350 lb·ft (475 N·m).[1] The Syclone, when new, was capable of accelerating from 0-60 mph in 4.6 seconds and could do a quarter-mile run in 13.4 seconds at 98 mph (158 km/h). Car & Driver tested the Syclone and it ran 0-30 in 1.3 seconds with a 0-60 in 4.3 seconds, the 1/4 mile was 13.06. In 1991 Syclones were available in black only.

Confessions of a Trey M.
The future has a way of arriving unannounced
Whether it's forever or just 3 weeks, I hate goodbyes
You are the best person I've ever met and you deserve the best. Don't ever think differently.
I can't even describe how much I love my small group, a best friend, a best guy friend and a boyfriend. It's unbelievable how lucky I am to have all of you, and I hope that this summer we go on a road trip and get to see somewhere that isn't here because I think we all deserve it. I honestly see all three of you in my future, you're perfect

@DJ Rubberman: Yea she told me you guys had to do several takes of this one, that sucks when the tools fail us down. I know you adapted a lot, Lisa is very monochordic and she is very faithfull to that one singing style. But I also think she brings your music to another level, as so you know as well. So even if that's the case, this turned out a very fine release, like I said before, lighthearted :)

@Hippie Sara: Thank you Sara :). La Lisa got the problem of cracking the mic even though she is standing far away and I think this is whats holding her back cause cant count the number of takes when this happened that we ended up not able to use. I had to totally change the way I make music starting working with her trying to create enough space for the vocals.

A truly amazing B&B that actually allows you to bring your four-legged family members with you. This is the only room on the entire island that permits Dogs and it is well worth the stay. The rest of Tybee is EXTREMELY Pet Restricted, so don't get your hopes up for long walks on the beach, Numerous Signage reiterating the $200 fine.
Be warned though, the Fido approved room has a spiral staircase to get to the commode, shower, and sink, this room is not for the physically restricted. It is absolutely worth the few trips up to stay in a very European layout styled room. The room is long and narrow with ornate brick, wood, and trim work throughout. The basics are present with a very good bed, modern technology, and an Electric Fireplace in the corner with an oversized highback lounger chair to cuddle up on.
The breakfast was mouth-watering and belly-filling. The entire staff will accommodate your dietary restrictions with ease and present you with a breakfast that far exceeds your expectations.
For how touristy the island is Tybee Island Inn does an excellent job at presenting, preparing, and making you all feel welcomed to their home.

Judge says Kirksville man who dismembered neighbor, not competent to stand trial
Wednesday, 21 August 2013 13:28 Published in Local NewsKIRKSVILLE, Mo. (AP) - A judge says a northeast Missouri man accused of stabbing and dismembering an elderly neighbor is not competent to stand trial.
Adair County Prosecuting Attorney Matt Wilson says a judge found 49-year-old Paul R. Potter of Kirksville incompetent for trial after he underwent a psychiatric evaluation.
Potter faces first-degree murder and other charges in the January death of 74-year-old Willis Edward Meredith. Prosecutors say Potter stabbed Meredith, chopped up his body and started fires to try to conceal the crimes. He is also accused of throwing the victim's arms at witnesses before his arrest.
The Kirksville Daily Express reports that Potter's status will be reviewed in six months.
Online court records indicate Potter was evaluated at Fulton State Hospital. He pleaded not guilty in April.

While there is no proven correlation between the quality of one's educational institution and the quality of one's professional competence, it is often an indicator.

Learn how markets work, what they accomplish well and what their limitations are.
We make economics decisions every day: what to buy, whether to work or play, what to study. We respond to markets all the time: prices influence our decisions, markets signal where to put effort, they direct firms to produce certain goods over others. Economics is all around us.
This course is a rigorous introduction to the microeconomic theory of markets: why we have them, how they work, what they accomplish. We will explore what outcomes they generate when they work well and what happens when they do not. We will learn why governments are important and when regulation and intervention is necessary. Examples are taken from everyday life, from goods and services that we all purchase and use. We will apply the theory to current events and policy debates through weekly exercises. These will empower you to be an educated, critical thinker who can understand, analyze and evaluate market outcomes.

Of course the biggest complaint from someone who is quite passionate about their classical music is that most of these are excerpt pieces rather than full arrangements.Ā This is often a common complaint because these are shortened versions that do not give the listener the full-effect of the composers work.Ā Most people are only familiar with certain excerpts from popular classic works, for example the Hallelujah Chorus from HandelÆs Messiah or the 4th movement from Ode to Joy.Ā
For some odd reason the Bach actually sounds better than the other titles.Ā Not sure why this is, but the Bach is much smoother and fuller than the other titles and you donÆt have to listen that carefully to hear the difference because itÆs quite apparent.Ā Even the look of the disc is a tad different and it operates more like a DVD-Audio than a DTS-CD might.Ā This could be part of the reason.Ā By comparison some of the 5.1 sound from the other titles is more pushed into the front channels and even sounds more like 2.0 in some cases.Ā There are great mood setters as you can just put them on and let the music shine through without having to sit around it to enjoy it.Ā The music is great background sound for when you have company over or just to relax.Ā The selections themselves are all quite popular and will most likely warrant involvement from the listener.Ā
While SACD seems to be taking great shape in the modern age of multichannel music, especially in the classical spectrum, these discs are still able to give superiority over CD, which makes them valuable in and of itself.Ā Despite some of the minor drawbacks these are great discs to be played again and again until more technology and advancements take place to further push the envelop of listening space.Ā Enjoy!

KRASNAYA POLYANA, Russia (AP) — Marielle Thompson and Kelsey Serwa got great air even with their ski boots on, kicking back their heels and flailing their arms so wide, they almost dropped the flowers.
That, Canada, is what you call owning the podium.
The Canadian women won gold and silver in skicross Friday, giving their country bookend 1-2 performances in the freestyle skiing events at the Sochi Olympics.
Freestyle opened Feb. 8 with sisters Justine and Chloe Dufour-Lapointe of Montreal finishing first and second in moguls.
"Being on the podium at the Olympics in itself is pretty cool," Serwa said, still all smiles long after a jubilant celebration during the flower ceremony. "To be standing beside your teammate is the best feeling in the world."
In all, the Canadians have sent two people to the freestyle podium four times during these games: men's and women's moguls, women's slopestyle and women's skicross. They also had the men's silver medalist on the halfpipe.
In all, that's nine freestyle medals for the country that pumped upward of $110 million into their "Own The Podium" program in advance of the Vancouver Games, hoping to boost the medal count and seed some potential in the raft of action sports added to the Olympics.
"It's been a huge force all the way through," Serwa said. "Heading out there and being able to train around the world all year-round — without that, we wouldn't be here today."
The Canadians dedicated this final freestyle victory to Nik Zoricic, the skicross racer from Toronto who died in a race in Switzerland in 2012.
Zoricic wore blue jeans to training in the early days because he didn't have the right kind of snow pants. The Canadian team, normally awash in red and white, went with blue bottoms to honor their fallen friend.
"I'm sure Nik is up there smiling and cracking open a couple of beers and we miss him," Canadian coach Eric Archer said.
Zoricic died only two months after Canada's most famous freestyle star, Sarah Burke, lost her life from injuries suffered in a training accident on the halfpipe.
If anyone needed reminding about the dangers of these extreme sports, women's skicross was Exhibit A.
The final on a foggy, drizzly day at Rosa Khutor served up its share of ugly accidents that could ignite discussion about whether the Olympic course is built too big for the women.
In back-to-back quarterfinals, Anna Woerner of Germany and Stephanie Joffroy of Chile were taken off the course on stretchers after wrecking despite not being bunched in a tight racing pack. Woerner broke her right shin and tore a knee ligament. No updates on Joffroy's condition were immediately provided.

iWork is an office suite of applications created by Apple Inc. for its OS X and iOS operating systems.
It comprises Keynote, a presentation program, the word processing and desktop publishing application Pages[1][3] and the spreadsheet application, Numbers.[4] It is generally viewed as a prosumer office suite targeted at home and small business users, with fewer features than competitors such as Microsoft's Office for Mac and the open source LibreOffice project, but a simpler user interface, strong touchscreen support and built-in links with Apple's iCloud document-hosting service and its Aperture and iPhoto image management applications. Apple's design goals in creating iWork have been to allow Mac users to easily create attractive documents and spreadsheets, making use of OS X's extensive font library, integrated spelling checker, sophisticated graphics APIs and its AppleScript automation framework.
The oldest application in iWork is Keynote, first released as a standalone application in 2003. Pages was released with the first iWork release in 2005; Numbers was added in 2007 with the release of iWork '08. The next release, iWork '09, also included access to iWork.com, a beta service that allowed users to upload and share documents,[4] now integrated into Apple's iCloud service. An iOS port was released in 2010 with the first iPad and has been regularly updated since. In 2013, Apple released a new OS X version and iWork for iCloud, a set of cross-platform web applications replicating the native software versions.
iWork was initially sold as a suite for $79, then later a la carte at $19.99 per app on OS X and $9.99 per app on iOS. Apple announced on October 22, 2013 that iOS devices purchased from September 2013 onward[5] and OS X computers purchased from October 2013 onward,[6] whether new or refurbished, are eligible for a free download of all three iWork apps. iWork for iCloud, which also incorporates a document hosting service, is free to all holders of an iCloud account.
The first version of iWork, iWork '05, was announced on January 11, 2005 at the Macworld Conference & Expo and made available on January 22 in the United States and worldwide on January 29. iWork '05 comprised two applications: Keynote 2, a presentation creation program, and Pages, a word processor. iWork '05 was sold for US$79. A 30-day trial was also made available for download on Apple's website.[1] Originally IGG Software held the rights to the name iWork.[7][8][9]
Although iWork was billed by Apple as "a successor to AppleWorks",[1] it does not replicate the functionality of AppleWorks's database and drawing tools.[10] However, iWork integrates with existing applications from Apple's iLife suite through the Media Browser, which allows users to drag and drop music from iTunes, movies from iMovie, and photos from iPhoto and Aperture directly into iWork documents.[1]
iWork '06 was released on January 10, 2006 and contained updated versions of both Keynote and Pages. Both programs were released as universal binaries for the first time, allowing them to run natively on both PowerPC processors and the Intel processors used in the new iMac desktop computers and MacBook Pro notebooks which had been announced on the same day as the new iWork suite.[11]
The next version of the suite, iWork '08, was announced and released on August 7, 2007 at a special media event at Apple's campus in Cupertino, California. iWork '08, like previous updates, contained updated versions of Keynote and Pages. A new spreadsheet application, Numbers, was also introduced. Numbers differed from other spreadsheet applications, including Microsoft Excel, in that it allowed users to create documents containing multiple spreadsheets on a flexible canvas using a number of built-in templates.[4]
iWork '09, was announced on January 6, 2009 and released the same day. It contains updated versions of all three applications in the suite. iWork '09 also includes access to a beta version of the iWork.com service, which allows users to share documents online. Users of iWork '09 can upload a document directly from Pages, Keynote, or Numbers and invite others to view it online. Viewers can write notes and comments in the document, and download a copy in iWork, Microsoft Office, or PDF formats.[12] iWork '09 was also released with the Mac App Store on January 6, 2011 at $19.99 per application, and received regular updates after this point, including links to iCloud and a high-DPI version designed to match Apple's MacBook Pro with Retina Display.[13]
On January 27, 2010, Apple announced iWork for iPad, to available as three separate $9.99 applications from the App Store.[14] This version has also received regular updates including a version for pocket iPhone and iPod touch devices, and an update to take advantage of Retina Display devices and the larger screens of recent iPhones.
On October 22, 2013, Apple announced an overhaul of the iWork software for both the Mac and iOS. Both suites were made available via the relevant app stores for free for current iWork owners and anyone purchasing and activating a new device that will run the relevant iWork version. (In other words, purchasers activating a new Mac after this date get iWork for OS X free and can install it on any other Macs they own, but do not receive the iOS version, and anyone purchasing a device that has already been activated still has to pay.)
The new OS X versions have been widely panned [15] for sacrificing professional features such as Bookmarks, 2-up page views, mail merge, searchable comments, ability to read/export RTF files, default zoom, and page count to integration with AppleScript and many others in order to create a more cross-platform product and UI. Apple has provided a road-map for feature re-introduction, stating that it hopes to reintroduce many of the missing features within the next six months.[16]
The new iWork version for OS X is only compatible with OS X 10.9 and does not overwrite the '09 versions, possibly to provide support for users needing removed features.

Common components[edit]
Products in the iWork suite share a number of components, largely as a result of sharing underlying code from the Cocoa and similar shared application programming interfaces (APIs). Among these are the well known universal multilingual spell checker, which can also be found in products like Safari and Mail. Grammar checking, find and replace, style and color pickers are similar examples of design features found throughout the Apple application space.
Moreover, the applications in the iWork suite also share a new model of the document. In most document-based applications there is a particular data type which forms the basis of the application's view of the world, for instance, in word processors the text is the first-class citizen of the application, while in a spreadsheet it is the cells in the table. Other objects, images or charts for instance, are managed by being attached to, or referenced to, the underlying primary data type.
In iWork, all of the applications share a common underlying document format, the "canvas", a generic container type that provides layout and storage mechanisms. Each application then adds its own custom objects and places them on the canvas. Pages, for instance, conventionally opens with a single large text object on the canvas. To the user it appears to be a typical word processor, but they can grab the corner and re-size it as in a page layout application. In Numbers, one initially sees a grid of cells like any other spreadsheet, but the user is free to size it smaller than the canvas, and then add multiple grids, charts or even drawings to the same canvas.
The difference is subtle, as many of these features are also implemented in more traditional programs like Microsoft Excel. However, the difference in UI can be significant. In Excel, for instance, charts are stored as part of a sheet, and can be moved inadvertently through natural user actions. In Numbers, charts are, like everything else, part of the canvas, and changes to the sheet(s) are normally independent.
The iWork model bears some resemblance to the earlier Apple effort, OpenDoc. OpenDoc also used a single underlying document engine, along with a single on-disk format. Unlike iWork, however, OpenDoc also used a single application, in which various editors could be invoked. For instance, one could open a generic document, start a spreadsheet editor, then add a spreadsheet. iWork lacks this level of flexibility in editing terms, but maintains it in layout.
Desktop applications[edit]
Pages is a word processing application with page layout features. Many of the layout features are missing from Pages 5.1. Besides basic word processing functionality, Pages 4.3 included 140 templates designed by Apple that allow users to create various types of documents, including newsletters, invitations, stationery, and résumés, along with a number of education-themed templates (such as reports and outlines) for students and teachers.[1][4] Pages 5 includes about only about 60 Apple-designed templates and lacks many features that were present in version 4.3, including mail merge, bookmarks, the ability to place inter-document hyperlinks, linked text boxes, 2-up page view, alternating margins, headers, and footers for left and right pages, the ability to view comments while editing, the ability to print comments, and more.
Along with Keynote and Numbers, Pages integrates with Apple's iLife suite. Using the Media Browser, users can drag and drop movies, photos and music directly into documents within the Pages application.[1] A Full Screen view hides the menubar and toolbars, and an outline mode allows users to quickly create outlines which can easily be rearranged by dragging and dropping, as well as collapsed and expanded. Pages includes support for entering complex equations with MathType 6 and for reference citing using EndNote X2.[12]
The Pages application can open and edit Microsoft Word documents (including DOC and Office Open XML files),and plain text documents.[17] Pages 5 can no longer read or export rich text format documents. Pages can also export documents in the DOC, PDF, and ePub formats.[11] However it cannot read or write OpenDocument file formats.
As a word-processing application targeted towards creating attractive documents for a range of applications such as lesson plans and newsletters, Pages competes with Microsoft Word, Microsoft Publisher (never ported to OS X), Apple's own free PDF and e-book authoring application, iBooks Author, and Adobe's much more expensive professional-market desktop publishing application InDesign.
Keynote is an application used to create and play presentations. Its features are comparable to those of Microsoft PowerPoint, though Keynote contains several unique features which differ from similar applications. Keynote, like Pages and Numbers, integrates with the iLife application suite. Users can drag and drop media from iMovie, iTunes, iPhoto and Aperture directly into Keynote presentations using the Media Browser. Keynote contains a number of templates, transitions, and effects. Magic Move allows users to apply simple transitions to automatically animate images and text that are repeated on consecutive slides.[1][4][11][12]
The Keynote Remote application lets users view slides and presenter notes and control Keynote presentations with an iPhone or iPod Touch over a Wi-Fi network.[12]
Keynote supports a number of file formats. By default, presentations are saved as .key files. Keynote can open and edit Microsoft PowerPoint (.ppt) files. In addition, presentations can be exported as Microsoft PowerPoint files, QuickTime movies (which are also playable on iPod and iPhone), HTML files, and PDF files. Presentations can also be sent directly to iDVD, iTunes, GarageBand, iWeb,[11] and to YouTube.[4] The Keynote 09 file format is not backward compatible; .key files saved with Keynote '09 cannot be opened with earlier versions of Keynote.
Numbers is a spreadsheet application that was added to the iWork suite in 2007 with the release of iWork '08. Numbers, like Microsoft Excel and other spreadsheet applications, lets users organize data into tables, perform calculations with formulas, and create charts and graphs using data entered into the spreadsheet. Numbers, however, differs from other spreadsheet applications in that it allows users to create multiple tables in a single document on a flexible canvas. Many prebuilt templates, including ones designed for personal finance, education, and business use, are included.[4][12]
Numbers 2.0 was included with iWork '09, with several improvements. Charts that are pasted into Keynote and Pages are automatically updated across documents when they are changed in Numbers. Additionally, Numbers 2 lets users categorize data in tables by column, which can then be collapsed and summarized.[12]
Numbers 3.0, the latest version released in October 2013, adds in the ability to create interactive charts, a new user interface resembling Keynote and Pages among other things.
Web services[edit]
iWork.com was a free service that enabled users to share iWork '09 documents online directly from within Pages, Keynote and Numbers. Users could click the iWork.com toolbar icon and login using their AppleID to upload a document and invite others to view it online. Viewers could leave comments and notes on the document and download a copy in iWork, Microsoft Office, or PDF formats. Document owners could track comments at the iWork.com website.
Apple announced that after July 31, 2012, users would be no longer able to publish new documents to iWork.com from any iWork application.[18]
With the latest versions of the iWork applications for OS X and iOS, users can now save documents to their iCloud storage.
iOS apps[edit]
On June 7, 2010 while showcasing the new iPhone 4, Apple posted a few screenshots of the device in action and inadvertently showed the possibility of opening an email attachment inside of Keynote, leading some to believe that an iPhone version of the iWork suite would soon be available in the iOS App Store.[19]
On June 28, 2010, several websites reported that in an attempt to sell AppleCare for the iPhone 4, several examples of services offered were given including one that read, "Using iWork for iPhone and other Apple-branded iPhone apps." These sites also report that it was quickly removed.[20][21]
On May 31, 2011, Apple released a press statement that iWork would be available on the iOS app store for the iPhone and iPod Touch.[22]
On September 10, 2013, Apple announced that iWork, iMovie and iPhoto would be available to download for free on new iOS devices activated since September 1.[23]
iWork for iCloud[edit]
During the 2013 Apple Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) keynote speech, iWork for iCloud was announced for release at the same time as the next version of the app versions of iWork later in the year. The three apps for both iOS and OS X that form Apple's iWork suite (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote), will be made available on a web interface (named as Pages for iCloud, Numbers for iCloud, and Keynote for iCloud respectively), and accessed via the iCloud website under each users iCloud Apple ID login. They will also sync with the users iOS and OS X versions of the app, should they have them, again via their iCloud Apple ID.
This allows the user to edit and create documents on the web, using one of the supported browsers; currently Safari, Chrome, and Internet Explorer. It also means that Microsoft Windows users now have access to these native –previously only Apple device– document editing tools, via the web interface. iWork for iCloud has somewhat limited functionality compared to the OS X version. For instance, the fonts available are more limited and the web version doesn't fully support printing and may display documents created with the support of external plug-ins incorrectly/improperly.
