CLEAN 1993 Nissan 240sx hatchback with Sr20det perfect condition [SOCAL]
I am selling my 1993 Nissan 240sx with an Sr20det motor and many parts. I bought the car stock in 2009 after looking for a clean/good condition one for over a year, and since then I've spent thousands on a motor swap, upgrading parts, and doing maintanence to keep the car in its best condition (I HAVE RECEIPTS FOR ALMOST EVERYTHING). I would say it is one of the cleanest ones around and it still has its original white paint. The car has a CLEAN TITLE and has always been garaged and babied ever since it has been in my hands. It has never been to any tracks or raced; I have always been light on the pedal. I changed the oil every 3,000 miles with synthetic Mobil 1 and only fill up 91 octane gas. I wish I could keep this car especially after buying so many new parts these past couple months, however I got a better paying job and I am in need of a truck (I am willing to trade/pay extra for a newer low mileage Toyota Tacoma only; no other trades, sorry). This car is very reliable and perfect for daily.
Chassis mileage is ~160,000 Sr20det red top mileage is ~60,000 (perfect shape; I have compression test results available) MOST gaskets have been changed (OEM only) prior to the swap and sealed professionally (almost all work has been done at G Dimension). The car has no leaks. *Motor (most parts are less than a year old)-have receipts:* Newely rebuilt stock Garrett t25 turbo on stock psi (never been boosted higher; comes with 1 year warranty!) HKS wastegate controller Circuit Sports steel braided turbo lines s14 water neck s15 side mount intercooler Circuit Sports hotpipe (w/ new silicon cups) with real HKS SSQV blow off valve Circuit Sports dual exhaust (rare) HKS cold air intake Nismo fuel pressure regulator Mines ECU (no speed limiter, perfectly tuned)- I have stock available too if you'de like Walbro 255 fuel pump Newely rebuilt starter New pulley belts Many new hoses Z32 fuel filter *Transmission (perfect condition, feels like butter)- have receipts:* New Exedy Stage 1 clutch (put less than 2,000 miles on it) Resurfaced OEM flywheel New OEM slave New OEM master New steel braided clutch line New lower wiring harness installed *Suspension:-have receipts* Tein Basics coilovers Cusco adjustable pillow-ball tension rods (stock ones on car right now), RUCA, forward link, and rear link Newly rebuilt rack and pinion JDM spec 5 bolt Viscus Limited Slip Differential 3.90 gearing 5 bolt axels Infiniti J30 calipers (larger 2 piston compared to stock) Nissan 300zx 5 lug rear hubs and Ichiba front 5 lug conversion s14 stock rims powder coated black *Exterior/Interior:-have receipts* stock- I have an original Bomex front bumper and rear valence available (rare) 2009 Kenwood head unit w/navigation, bluetooth, usb compatible, and iPod connection(sold separately) OEM privacy cover, carpets, and sunroof cover- complete interior (rare) Nismo shift knob Replaced SE trunk with wingless one and got it paint matched and installed with window-off restoration Has AC but needs to be charged Please don't low-ball me, I'm pretty firm on the price of $6,500 PM OR EMAIL at email@example.com OR CALL/TEXT ME ANYTIME at (818)429-8923. THANKS! (2 cracks on dash above steering wheel not in picture) Last edited by 240SeX_Turbo; 09-21-2012 at 01:59 PM.. |

The pictures don't justify how clean this car is and how well it's running. I bought the motor from my friend who had bought it from Sr20 store a month before. He had trouble covering the costs of the swap etc so I decided to give my running KA to him and bought the SR. Compression/leak down test came out good (also took a video of it being tested by James at G Dimension).

For those still wondering, the car has been sold months ago. I thought the thread would close by now. And as for you Sega, you douchebag, the car was sold well over my asking price due to a fight between 3 serious buyers.

FORESTVIILLE - Behind the pitching of Cole Stanbro, West Valley began the baseball season successfully on Thursday afternoon.
Stanbro fanned 15 and gave up just four hits in six innings as the downed Forestville, 7-5, in a non-leaguer.
Dylan Westfall finished up for WV with a scoreless inning in which he fanned two to make it 17 strikeouts altogether.
The game was tied at 2-2 when the Wildcats took the lead with four runs in the fifth for a 6-2 edge. Mike Grigsby, who had two hits, started it off with a double and checked out with two hits.
Stanbro helped his own cause with a two-run double in the WV first inning.
Forestville's Cody Jackson was the only batter to solve the WV pitching with three hits, including a double.

Steven Seagal Lawsuit: Actor, Arizona Sheriff's Office Sued
PHOENIX -- Actor Steven Seagal and the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office are being sued over a 2011 arrest that a Phoenix-area man says was staged for a reality TV show.
Jesus Llovera says Seagal and deputies unlawfully raided his home because they thought Llovera was raising fighting roosters.
Llovera says the birds on his property were for show and not for fighting.
The civil suit asks for a jury to determine unspecified monetary damages.
The Sheriff's Office insists in court documents that the use of a tank, a bomb robot and 40 deputies was part of its normal course of duties.
Check out photos of Steven Seagal:

Installation is simple and straight-forward - insert the included CD, plug the Digi VOX into a spare USB 2.0 port, plug in your antenna and then run the setup from the CD. The good thing about the Digi VOX is that no external power is needed - the USB port supplies all the power which is needed and it's a welcome relief not to have yet another power adapter lying around the place.
After a quick reboot, the device was working as it should with adequate signal strength (which can be monitored with the software) and after choosing a few options we were running a channel scan and then watching HDTV. Due to the bandwidth demanded by HDTV, you'll need to have a spare USB 2.0 port...USB 1.1 won't cut the cheese, so to speak. The included software is designed for Windows 2000 and XP (with support for Windows Media Center Edition) but we're not sure if the software will work on older versions of Windows - you should check into this with MSI before buying for an older or different OS.
In the past it's been a nightmare to setup other TV tuners from other companies - constant blue screens, system resource hogs and random crashes. Thankfully none of these were experienced with the MSI Digi VOX. In fact, as far as system resources go, we were very surprised since the Digi VOX is powered by the CPU (USB). On what we'd consider a mid-range computer these days (AMD Athlon XP 2100+ and 1GB of DDR-400 memory - nothing special), the software was only using around 20% of the CPU and around 40MB of memory after we setup the software to use real-time processing, which seemed to make things a little more responsive. We suspected when watching HDTV, it would make multi-tasking impossible but we were still able to surf websites and copy files while HDTV was playing in the background, without much interference.
As far as we can gather, even HDTV on set-top-boxes will lag sometimes during an intense scene. Only rarely did the MSI Digi VOX lag on our Shuttle XPC setup, which impressed us, as we thought it might struggle. The only real hassle we encounter was when you change channels, information is pulled from the TV station regarding screen resolution and audio quality etc, and this lags the picture for about a second each time you change the channel - which is kinda annoying but bearable. We tried disabling this information from showing but couldn't find any options to do so.
One issue worth mentioning - due to the height and width of the Digi VOX, if you want to plug the device directly into a USB port on your computer, you won't be able to use the port next to it or above (or below) it - as you can see in the image above.
This is a pain but there is a reason why MSI include the USB extension cable and that is to avoid this problem. When using the extension cable, you can place the Digi VOX wherever you please but we'd suggest on top of your PC with the device facing your way for much better range with the remote control. Again, this will only be worth considering if you're using the Digi VOX in your living room where you are sitting a decent distance away from the device.

A beautiful cake with a surprise insideIf you think Halloween is just for kids then you've never seen this cake. This stunning orange and dark chocolate cake is as fun to eat as it is to make! Although it looks hard, trust us, this cake isn't as difficult to assemble as you may think. Made from boxed cake mix, canned frosting and food dye, you can make and decorate it in under an hour. If you think this cake is fun to look at it, wait until you cut into it! Halloween surprise cake recipeServes about 12 Ingredients:
Mix cake into different shades of orangeMix cake batter according to directions on box, then divide the batter evenly into four separate bowls. To give the inside a really 3D, gradient orange, we mixed a few different shades together. We did this by adding different drops of red and yellow together to get three different shades of orange, leaving one bowl uncolored. If you want, you can just go with one shade of orange to make it simpler. 2
Swirl oranges togetherGrease and flour two 8-inch cake pans. Using a spoon, swirl the different color cake mixes together in each cake pan until each one is filled 3/4 full. 3
Bake cakes and let coolPreheat oven to 350 degrees F. Bake cakes for about 38-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Let cool on a wire cooling rack for at least an hour or until cool enough to frost. 4
Frost and add chocolate chipsLevel off the top of one cake to make sure it stacks perfectly. Then liberally frost the top of the cake. Carefully place the second cake on top. Using a cake spatula, spread the rest of the frosting over the cakes, smoothing it out after each addition. Sprinkle the top edge of the cake with mini chocolate chips. 5
Pipe ghostsTo make the mini ghosts, scoop the white frosting into a piping bag. Add a small tip and pipe little swirls to the top of the cake. Add black icing gel to make faces on each ghost. Then cut the cake and enjoy! More Halloween treats

Gov. Mary Fallin says crews are searching flooded areas for missing people and the death toll could rise.
Ten people are confirmed to have been killed in Oklahoma as a result of Friday's storms. Five others were killed by flash flooding in Arkansas and Missouri.
More than 75 other people were hurt, five critically.

Authorities are using a boat, raft and Humvee to evacuate residents of a mobile home park in Crutcho.
The Oklahoma County Sheriff's offices says they are also searching for missing man from the area whose vehicle was found washed off the road near E. Hefner Rd. and N. Dobbs.
The man left for work at 6:30 a.m. Friday and has not been heard from since, according the sheriff's office.
Images from the mobile home park near NE 23rd and Air Depot show flood waters halfway up the doors of parked cars.
Authorities in the Oklahoma City metro are discouraging travel Saturday morning due to flooding across the area.
The Oklahoma County Sheriff's Office reports flooding on NE 23rd Street Hiawassee and Choctaw Rd. and other areas in Choctaw. Multiple roads in Deer Creek are also impassable from high water.
Overnight, deputies report assisting with 10 water rescues. The sheriff's office has also called in additional workers to help with traffic and road closures.
As residents in Oklahoma pick up the pieces of their lives, there are many agencies and organizations providing disaster relief. KGOU has compiled a list of resources to aid in the recovery.

I'm more impressed with the 30+ year old videos that people upload to YouTube. Maybe because I can't imagine people actively trading old adverts the same way I can imagine people sharing music.I always assumed they came from one of two sources: either they were on a VHS tape with a bunch of other stuff, or they were on a shelf in some ad agency or archive and forgotten until the advent of YouTube.

I have had 2 disastrous facelifts,in that the results were nil. The results lasted only a matter of months,and i am sure that only the skin was lifted.? Certainly i traveled out of the country for these precedures,mainly because of costs,but on reflection i should have paid more,and concentrated on a doctor who specialises in faces. So just wondering what doctors really do a 'Deep Plane' lift,as to be honest ,how are we to know exactly what has been done?
Who Does a Deep Plane Facelift?
Doctor Answers (7)
I have been doing a composite facelift for over 20 years. The skin is not detached from the deeper "plane" which preserves nearly normal blood supply to the remaining skin. The deeper tissue supports the lift so the skin is sutured under little tension.
Web reference: http://www.zubowicz.com/subpag,13-atlanta-breast-augmentation.htm
The internet and the abundance of information, tends to cause people to focus on the wrong things. Getting a deep plane facelift is not the answer to your issues. I can tell you that and I have not even seen your photos. Deep plane, composite facelift, SMAS flap, SMAS plication--what is the best method for you? I can virtually guarantee you that the right surgeon can make any of these methods work for you. It is the surgeon and not the method that gets the job done. Look at the list of top contributors for facelift questions on this website. Virtually any of these surgeons will be able to help you with you situation. Focus on the surgeon and not on the method. Good luck and please be careful.
Foreign facelifts can be problematic..
I practice in South Florida and consequently have seen and re-operated on many "off-shore" facelifts.
A common feature is that they tend to be underdone compared to the local well trained plastic surgeon. An offshore plastic surgeon, no matter what his background is, has to plan and operation which allows the patient to return home with limited or no long term followup.
This means they typically do not use our more advanced approaches that require a much longer followup as well as the chance of complications that might extend the patients stay
in a foreign country.
It seems that you need to be seen by an American plastic surgeon who does multiple styles of surgery and who can redo your surgery. The style needed may not be a deep plane at all.
Unfortunately the cost will be that of a good surgeon doing hopefully a much better operation well suited to your needs.

Deep plane facelifts are one of the more technically demanding procedures in facelift surgery. The knowledge of facial anatomy is important as to not disrupt vital structures such as nerves while releasing facial ligaments to mobilize the face and neck. Several studies have shown further release and more skin excised after deep plane lifts than SMAS lifts. In addition, there are many acronyms and trademarked facelifts which can make patients seem like they are getting a unique lift but may be getting a variation of a standard facelift.
So how does a patient find out what a surgeon's lift is all about?
- -Ask the surgeon- He/she may tell you their technique in detail. Beware that many surgeons claim to perform a "deep" plane but are in fact doing a SMAS lift
- -Research any scientific writings by the surgeon- If the surgeon has written in a medical journal about deep plane technique and can demonstrate it in a scientific article, it is fair to assume that he/she actually performs deep plane lifts
- -Seek out results from other patients- Many facelift patients are word of mouth. Usually, other patients, hair dressers, people in the beauty industry know whose lifts are the best.
Deep plane facelift was receiving a great deal of press several years ago, but most plastic surgeons use either SMAS plication or SMASectomy techniques to treat the underlying tissue. A SMAS plication facelift has an almost nil chance of facial nerve damage, whereas the deep plane facelift can be several percent chance (or more). The results of a SMAS plication in the right hands can produce the result you want. Find the plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who has performed hundreds or thousands of facelifts. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA
Web reference: http://www.hughesplasticsurgery.com
Your experience regarding your travel medicine results unfortunately are all too common choosing cost as the most important feature rather than the best surgeon.
Please don't make a second similar mistake by choosing the technique rather than the best surgeon available and then following their advice.
The below link is how I would select the best possible surgeon to do a facelift.
Web reference: http://drnichter.com/find-best-plastic-surgeon-dr-right/
As the other doctors say, you just need a good facelift. Trust the right surgeon and let him or her use their preferred technique. It is true that the deeper tissues need to be lifted, but a "deep plane" facelift is a very specific procedure with considerable risk.
These answers are for educational purposes and should not be relied upon as a substitute for medical advice you may receive from your physician. If you have a medical emergency, please call 911. These answers do not constitute or initiate a patient/doctor relationship.

10 killer nuggets about US Navy SEAL Team Six, our new favourite action heroes
After the operation to kill bin Laden, there's a new wave of interest in the US Navy SEALs, and specifically SEAL Team Six, the elite and secret counter-terrorist section. One former SEAL's memoir, Seal Team Six: Memoirs of an Elite Navy Seal Sniper, was published in the US this week and is already at no.5 in Amazon' s sales chart (it's out in the UK in a fortnight).
Howard Wasdin took part in the Gulf War and won the Silver Star for his part in the 1993 Battle of Mogadishu (the Black Hawk Down episode). Since he's now a chiropractor in Georgia, some of his insights into kit and operations may be out of date, but here are 10 nuggets of SEAL life that gripped me, reading it last night:
1. "Hell Week" comes early in BUD/S (Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL) training. At any time, class members can ring a bell and quit. They get to sleep for about 4 hours in as many days and therefore hallucinate. Instructors keep them at roughly Stage 2 of hypothermia (shivering and confusion), edging towards Stage 3 (core body temperature drops and complete incoherence sets in). There is no Stage 4.
2. "Drown-proofing" is a particularly unpleasant part of early SEAL training. With arms tied behind the back and feet tied together, candidates have to "bob up and down 20 times, float for 5 minutes, swim to the shallow end of the pool, turn around without touching the bottom, swim back to the deep end, do a forward and backward somersault underwater and retrieve a face mask from the bottom of the pool with the teeth".
3. On quiet days in Somalia, Wasdin practised "goat lab". He'd stand with his back to a live goat while a surgeon shot it. He'd then have to find the wound, staunch the bleeding, restore breathing – all invaluable practice for saving lives in the field. And afterwards, the locals ate the goats.
4. SEALs train with their foreign counterparts – the SBS, the German Kampfschwimmer, the Swedish Kustjagarna… Swapping rations with the French "Commando Hubert", Wasdin was delighted to find they were issued with wine, cheese, and pate. Just as we'd all hope.
5. Wasdin wore no smalls in civilian life – he really did "go commando", like all of his colleagues he says – but for sniper work, he wore North Face blue polypropylene undershorts, which wick moisture away from the body.
6. The point of applying camouflage to the face is to make dark areas light, and light become dark. So the parts of the face that form shadows (eg the eye sockets) are made light green and the features that shine (forehead, cheeks, nose, brow, chin) become dark green. Even if seen, the face doesn't look like a face.
7. Most trainee snipers failed on stalking. Two miles from a target, a sniper moves quickly from cover to cover for a mile. But for the last half mile, he crawls at snail speed – one hand moves forward a foot in 30 seconds, then the other, at the same speed. If an observer spotted them in training, they were out.
8. The selection course for SEAL Team Six is a world beyond even basic SEAL selection. The curriculum includes land warfare, diving, parachuting (150 jumps in 4 weeks), free climbing, unarmed combat, defensive and offensive driving, Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape (SERE)… And a great deal of shooting. Wasdin says SEAL Team Six spent more on 9mm ammo in a year than the entire Marine Corps.
9. SEALs love a brawl, and there are plenty in Wasdin's book. But there's a commitment to restraint unless provoked that the first members of Team Six (set up by Richard Marcinko after the Iranian hostage fiasco) wouldn't recognise. "I went on a flight once with a pilot who was amazed at our behaviour in comparison with the loud, obnoxious, gun-waving attitude of Marcinko's SEALs."
10. If a couple of well built blokes wearing Oakley or Vuarnet shades bellow the word "Hooyah" at each other, you may be in the presence of SEALs. Or possibly some drunk college kids pretending to be SEALs, but why take the risk?

Publisher Synopsis

"A meticulous consideration of the legal issues surrounding same-sex relations grounded in a far-reaching investigation of how the notion of disgust has determined both civil legislation and public opinion...as the recent public discourse about empathy among Supreme Court judges indicates, Nussbaum's passionate advocacy of the power of imagination is profound and timely." -- Publishers Weekly

"Pity the enemies of gay equality who find themselves at intellectual odds with America's most prominent, and most prolific, philosopher of public life, Martha C. Nussbaum...Nussbaum presents a cogent and politically charged case against the unconstitutional legal arguments that have inhibited the privacy, marriage and full civil rights of gays and lesbians in the United States." -- San Francisco Chronicle

"Groundbreaking...Her book makes the most hard-and-fast case for the legalization of same-sex marriage..." -- MS Magazine Blog

"In all, From Disgust to Humanity is a must-read for anyone who is interested in the same-sex marriage debate and for those who want to better understand the Constitution's role in our everyday lives." -- Trial Magazine

"A refreshingly candid and insightful stance on the perpetuation of the discrimination against homosexual men and women in the United States, From Disgust to Humanity makes a convincing case for the role of disgust in the formation of both public opinion and law...While [this book] would certainly provide a valuable read to students of constitutional law, this reviewer recommends it also to anyone who has observed with interest and would like to better understand the ebb and flow of progress apropos recent sexual orientation legislation in the United States."--Contemporary Sociology

"Disgust is all around us, but the book presents fresh arguments worth considering...Summing Up: Recommended."--CHOICE

The Building Crew
The best architect and general contractor in the world can't build a house alone. He/she needs good workers. Similarly, a compliance officer can't establish or run an effective compliance program alone. He/she needs a strong compliance committee.
The OIG states the following about compliance committees:
Your compliance committee should be regularly involved in helping set up, operate, maintain and revise your compliance program, under the leadership of your compliance officer. A compliance committee that exists in name only, however, actually may do more harm than good if the provider becomes the subject of an investigation. So, each provider must determine whether creation of a committee is useful and practical (not everyone agrees that these committees are practical for small providers).
The role of the compliance committee is to assist the compliance officer in carrying out his or her duties and to assist with development, implementation, and oversight of the compliance program. Development of a compliance committee, comprised of people regularly present at the site of a provider's operations, is particularly important when a provider appoints a compliance officer who is not routinely on-site.
Here's some sample language you might want to use in your compliance program policy to describe the role of the compliance committee (modify this to fit your company):

Daytime Album of the Month: December, 2011
Our last Album of the Month for 2011 is The Black Keys' El Camino. This hard-hitting follow-up to Brothers picks up the heavy-handed blues of that record with the collaborative might of The Black Keys and producer Danger Mouse, whose fingerprints trace this LP much as they did on 2008′s Attack and Release.
The thick fuzz of "Lonely Boy" is quickly invigorated with a pop-esque melody that is becoming a singular sound for The Black Keys with each consecutive album.
The bluespop of El Camino reaches its peak on "Sister" as Danger Mouse puts together an ambiance that takes one to perhaps an imaginary place where the real rockers went and hid during the Disco era.
On the album's final tune, "Mind Eraser" an almost orchestral foundation gives way to a tongue-in-cheek refrain, "oh don't let it be over," as if the keys themselves knew they wouldn't be the only ones wanting more when this fine record was done.
Serenata de Amor, a musical theater project spearheaded by visual media arts associate professor Claire Andrade-Watkins, was brought to Emerson this past year. The project is a tribute to the morna of Cape Verde and Brava set in the 1940s. Andrade-Watkins worked with a team of faculty, staff members, and students from Emerson to bring [...]

Cougars Come Up Short -- 4/4
The Cougars blooded two brand new players in the game, saw Jack Prince (in his second game ever and 1st start) score a try, while two starting flankers sat out.
We trailed just 17-0 at halftime, and though the result was disappointing, we get another shot at Aquinas in the regular season and likely one more in the State tournament.
Jr. Blues Too Quick -- 3/28
Ranked #5 in the country, the Kansas City Jr. Blues beat the Cougars 29-5 at Rockhurst University in Kansas City, Mo.
The Jr. Blues were quicker out of the breakdown and in their decision making, but led just 12-0 at halftime.
The Jr. Blues are perennial National Championship participants and one of the oldest clubs in Kansas City.
Not Enough Possession -- 3/12
The first loss of the season came against a very good Park Hill South squad Saturday, 27-11, as the Panther outside center proved difficult to contain.
The Cougars played good field position rugby and were rewarded with two penalties in the first half, but trouble in the set piece and some inconsistency going for touch undid the game plan.
We trailed just 17-11 at halftime, but struggled to get much attacking ball in the second half.
Cougars Upend SME -- 3/9
The Cougars improved to 2-0 with a second win in as many days Saturday, beating rival Shawnee Mission East 18-12 at Swope Park. Sophomore flyhalf Matt Thorman scored the first try of the game after some physical defense forced East to lose the ball in their own try zone. Up 5-0, the Cougars let some penalties allow the Lancers field position, and East scored to go up 7-5. Thorman returned the favor by slotting a penalty in front of the posts to take an 8-7 lead. The Cougars wouldn't trail again, as wing Dan Kashani and hooker Nick Sosaya dotted down to make it 18-7. East managed one more score before the final whistle.
This is the Cougars' first-ever win over East. The Lancers beat the Cougars in our one match last year. The game is classified as a friendly, but it will be for league positioning when we meet again in April.
Cougars Edge Park Hill -- 3/8
The Cougars came back from 5-0 and 10-7 deficits to beat Park Hill Friday. Jorn Winkelmolen scored the first try for the good guys with a heads up play, and set up the second one with an offload to Ryan Ellis. Matt Thorman slotted one conversion, giving the Cougars the two-point edge. Thorman also came up with a huge defensive play at the end of the game, making a try-saving tackle and causing a knock on to give the possession back to the Cougars.
The win makes the Cougars 1-0 on the season and 1-0 all time against Park Hill Seniors Kyle Zarda, Nick Sosaya and Justus Pinno put in a lot of good grunt work during the win, and Ellis debuted nicely at scrumhalf.

So, I've had to re-schedule the meeting with the people in Toronto. Fortunately, they don't seem to be too put of by that. Trying to juggle both school and starting a business is really trickey. I'd say the most difficult part is knowing when to draw the line with respect to either of them.

Krak Addicts
Photo By: Michael T. Regan |
Zitner's Easter eggs are made just the way Philadelphians -- and only us -- like them.
Philadelphia is in the midst of a Krak epidemic. That's Krak with a "K," as in Zitner's Butter Krak dark chocolate Easter eggs, a local favorite now back on store shelves for their annual two-month stay.
We have Krak dealer Christine Murphy to thank for them being back on the streets. Murphy and her husband bought the North Philly candy company and its aging brick factory building near 17th and Allegheny from the Zitner family in 1990. Murphy says her Zitner CEO position is a much sweeter situation than her mid-'80s stint as Philadelphia's revenue commissioner.
"This company almost has a cult following. As soon as I say the name, people start telling me about their favorite flavor," says Murphy. She is tall and thin enough to make you wonder if she can smell the coconut and chocolate that hangs in her factory's air.
Like most Philadelphia-area candy companies, S. Zitner Co. makes chocolate Easter eggs filled with coconut, buttercream, marshmallow and peanut butter. But the flavor people favor is Butter Krak, consisting of a buttercream and coconut center covered in toasted coconut and dark chocolate. The treat was invented by company co-founder Annie Zitner in the 1930s and is unique to Zitner, probably because it is uniquely difficult to make.
Five years ago, in a labor-cost-cutting move, Murphy found a machine to place the soft centers on trays, but it made the centers a little drier. After receiving 125 letters of complaint, Murphy caved. Now, as in the old days, the centers are placed on wooden trays by hand. And the sticklers don't stop there: Even now, 11 years after the company went to coating the Kraks by machine, Murphy is still occasionally asked why the toasted coconut no longer pokes through the chocolate coating. (The answer is that the machines give Kraks a thicker chocolate coating, although no one has written to thank her for it.)
Zitner also makes chocolate-covered pretzels and caramel-covered apples. But 65 percent of their business is filled Easter eggs. Virtually all of the 7 million cream egg sales are made within a two-hour drive of Center City. Murphy has had difficulty expanding the market area.
"The look is not all that appealing," she admits, eying a factory floor 1.8-ouncer. Indeed, with its flat chocolate base, the egg is only partly oval and looks more like a clump of dirt or worse. Then there is the Krak name. It's the reason Murphy's 2002 attempt to, ahem, crack the Reading market laid an egg. Murphy encouraged the Weis supermarket chain to take that best-selling flavor. But, "Nobody knew what Krak was. I should have given them buttercreams or coconut, something people had heard of," she says, chiding herself.
Even Murphy doesn't know the derivation of the name "Krak," or why in the 1940s the Zitners took the platter piled with eggs out of the hands of the bunny pictured on packages. (On the 1.8-ounce wrappers showing the mascot's full figure, his wide-armed stance makes him look like a lapin Fred Astaire.) The "cocoanut" on the Krak ingredient list is a 1930s spelling for real coconut, not a way to cover up using an artificial ingredient (as is now common in the food industry).
Murphy used to think people bought the eggs "because they'd grown up eating them," but a 1998 company-commissioned survey revealed that it is largely because "they like the taste." She attributes that to superior, largely natural ingredients, product freshness and limited availability. The Zitner eggs you buy today were made on 17th Street within the past 16 weeks. Unlike bigger candy companies, Zitner does not warehouse its finished product or slap seasonal wrapping on year-round candy. Zitner eggs are only sold a few weeks a year and only here.
Zitner regularly sends out eggs to transplanted Philadelphians with Krak cravings in a money-losing goodwill mail-order operation. Murphy has yet to figure out how to send Butter Kraks to heaven, though a Philadelphia woman was once buried with some of the eggs. (Murphy's sister-in-law saw them in her open casket.)
No word on whether she died of a Krak overdose.
Zitner 1.8-ounce chocolate Easter eggs are sold at Wawa, CVS and many other drug and convenience stores for about 59 cents each. Multipacks and quarter-, half- and 1-pound sizes can be purchased at supermarkets and discount stores.

For any birders/naturalists heading for southern Spain in the future, this trip report of our adventures earlier in the year may be of some help....then again it may not _ you maybe better going to Surfbirds....
I take no responsibility for exaggeration, porky pies and licence used by John Bannon in the compilation of this report, but at least the bird accounts are correct. The photos are by Neill Hunt, and any childish field sketches which may appear are by me (I don't think Lars Jonsson has much to worry about).

More great stuff!
I'm sure you guys have heard of Perry Bible Fellowship. That dude has a dark humor pinned down. One thing about his work is that the art styles change with each comic, and it adds extra oomph to the punchline.
While I enjoy these comics (You guys are second only to PBF in my eyes), the art style is generally the same... I didn't recognize Toonhole as being more than one person...
Just to be clear, it's not the art itself I'm criticizing; you all have a great eye for detail. But I think you could use style more to your advantage... For example, I didn't feel any strife or torment in the first two panels. If I related to his suffering first, the punchline would be more personal, and funnier by that extension.
Thanks MossyStones! That's a great crit!

The science of economics can be traced to the beginnings of the early Empires. As Empires rose, so did their primitive economic structures. However, we cannot ignore them because of the foundations these laid for the development of the economic thought up to the modern days.
"The first great world Empire was that of Sargon of Asked and it lasted from 2350-2300 B.C." However, neither that nor any other early Empires had made any significant contributions to the economic development, but the smelting of iron ore. However, in spite of the near stagnation of technology, "the economic achievements of the ancient empires were considerable". Most important achievement was the "establishing order and common laws over larger areas". That facilitated trade and development in many areas, particularly the Mediterranean World.
Unlike the early ages of the Empires the classical civilizations of the Mediterranean world went much further in their economic development. In fact, "it was not surpassed, at least in Europe, until the 12th or 13th century".
Figure 1. The Parthenon still remains an architectural wonder that amazes people from all over the world even today.
"I was the first to really develop economics
as a science in the 18th century.
why they call me the "father of economics".
Since there was little technological progress, historians believe that "the achievement was made possible by a highly developed network of trade and markets". Trade was highly popular, especially with the Phoenicians who were "the first specialized sailors and merchants." Primitive forms of barter were also formed.
FYI: Barter is defined as the exchange of goods
without using money".
The other great maritime traders of the Mediterranean were the Greeks. Below is a comparison table of the Phoenicians and the Greeks:

Organization |
Autonomous city-states |
Concentrations of Greek cities |
Main Occupation |
Traders, merchants |
Cultivators, driven to sea |
Trade |
Western Mediterranean, Atlantic, Africa |
Black Sea, the Aegean, coast of Asia Minor |
As the trade developed within the early nations, the colonization process occurred as the countries acquired and discovered new territories.

in Bread Rolls
Calorie Table for Bread RollsPlease note: all calorie values are approximate
Return to Calories IndexPersonal Help To Lose Weight Counting calories in bread rolls helps you make better food choices, but when it comes to losing weight - PERSONAL SUPPORT IS CRUCIAL. And this is exactly what you get when you join this Weight Loss Program. The BEST diet motivation, the BEST personal help and the Weight Loss Forum on the Net. Calorie Intake to Lose WeightOne pound of body fat is equivalent to about 3500 calories. Thus in order to burn one pound of stored body fat we need to create a calorie deficit of 3500 calories. We can do this (1) by eating 3500 fewer calories than we need, or (2) by burning an extra 3500 in exercise, or (3) a combination of both. That said, if we eat too few kilocalories, our metabolic rate slows down as our body conserves energy. So if counting calories, do not allow your caloric intake to fall below 1000-1200 calories a day. |

Re: Costco Galaxy note10.1 in white
I wouldn't buy the original Note 10.1 so close to 2013. There's bound to be a new one soon, and I'm waiting for that one.
Also, you shouldn't call the next 10.1 the Note 2, as that is already the name of a released phone. - 01-12-2013, 11:31 AM #6
Re: Costco Galaxy note10.1 in white
My local Costco here in SoCal now has the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 WiFi only models for $479 (didn't check see if they are still offering a $50 rebate).
I sure hope Costco gets a batch of charging Samsung Galaxy note 10.1 Keyboard Docks when they finally show up here in the USA. It'd be nice to see them for about $40-$60.
Fingers crossed! - 01-12-2013, 06:31 PM #7
