I drop my fears into your ocean
and watch them sink from sight.
I place my fears on your broad Earth
and see them rot away.
I put my fears into your hands
and they are no more.
When you offer your arms to me,
Great Mother,
your hands hold nothing but love.

Review of the 1999 Chevrolet Astro
Info is not yet available.

Last midsize you can buy, eight-passenger seating, versatile, rear-driver tows like a full-size.
Design is two decades old, cramped front footwells, boxy sheetmetal, can't hide its truck roots.

Poor quality build - nightmare
by bosnol on Aug 28, 2011
Vehicle: 1998 Chevrolet Astro 3dr Minivan
Awful build quality - it is too bad since the Astro fits a perfect niche for families with diverse outdoor interests. They made this vehicle out of trash - and it did not help with the dealer contesting every warranty claim. The extended warranty saved us $10k in unexpected, chronic breakdowns. Security Chevrolet in Vista, California, now out of business was the nightmare dealer.
Family hauler
by Chevy Fan on Dec 21, 2008
Vehicle: 1998 Chevrolet Astro 3dr Minivan
Bought from a frequent traveler with 98K on it. We now have 271K on it. Nothing unexpected - usual replacements of water pump fuel pump, trans rebuild, and so forth. Still no oil consumption. We use on trips for family of 4, plus it served as the "Mom wagon" for several years, racking up 300 miles a week. We are ready to let it go after a long service life. Everything still works. Needs a radiator, uses too much gas at today's prices. We got our money's worth.
I like it
by yakimagal on Jun 21, 2008
Vehicle: 1998 Chevrolet Astro 3dr Minivan
I am getting ready to purchase another car as I have had this one for 10 years. I find I am comparing everything I look at to my Astro. The interior and exterior still look almost new. I have replaced the tires 4 times in 10 years, whatever that means. I love how it handles on wet pavement and snow. With the AWD, I can travel the mountain pass without putting on chains. Compared to my last car, 89 Astro, the handling is so much better. There has been some repair work, but standard stuff as a car ages. Check engine light 3 times in 10 years. The lighting on stereo has burned out but stereo still works well.
Full 1999 Chevrolet Astro Review
What's New for 1999
A new, all-wheel-drive active transfer case replaces the previous AWD system, and includes a new control module and service light. There are two new interior roof consoles: one with storage is optional on base model, another with trip computer is standard on LS and LT trim. A new LT stripe design comes in three new colors. Dealer-installed running boards are available, as are new optional aluminum wheels. Three exterior paint colors are added for '99, while depowered airbags finally arrive this year. Finally, the outside mirrors are redesigned, available heated and with or without electrochromic glare reduction.

Pancreatic cancer legislation gives hope
Pancreatic cancer remains one of the deadliest cancers with a five-year survival rate of just 6 percent and no early detection tools or effective treatments.
Thanks to the Recalcitrant Cancer Research Act, a new law enacted in January, there is hope for those touched by this disease. I would like to thank Sen. Bob Corker, Sen. Lamar Alexander and Rep. Chuck Fleischmann for supporting this historic legislation, which requires the National Cancer Institute to evaluate its current efforts in researching pancreatic cancer and focus on ways to improve outcomes for patients.
Due to sequestration, however, federal funding for medical and cancer research has been cut, and the progress we have made is being threatened. Without adequate NCI funding, it will be difficult to leverage the opportunities that develop as a result of the passage of the Recalcitrant Cancer Research Act.
On June 18 thousands of advocates across the country joined for the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network's (www.pancan.org) National Call-in to Congress to urge them to save medical research that saves lives. This disease has had a devastating impact on my life, but with Congress' help, we will be able to develop the tools and treatments so desperately needed to give hope to future generations.
Father of the year goes to Orlando Shaw
I nominate Orlando Shaw of Nashville as 2013 father of the year. It was reported that Shaw is only 33 years old and already has produced 22 kids with 14 women, and he's not through. He most likely was working on number 23 last night somewhere in Tennessee. Yes, he's one of our own and we support his proclivity at the tune of over $7,000 each month in entitlements.
Orlando pays no child support. He says he can't find a job because he's a convicted felon and refuses to use contraception because the women want the babies. He professes his love for women and says they know he can't pay child support but still love him.
How many Orlando's would it take to bankrupt America? Any idea?
Shaw has discovered a program to destroy America without bombs, drones, guns or killing anyone. No bloodshed, only love, love and more love as God refers to throughout the Bible.
So how about a father of the year vote for this handsome hulk who is spreading all this love for us?
Father's Day edition highlighted great dads
The Sunday paper on Father's Day had the best notes about Fathers I've ever seen.
I didn't have a father, neither did my two sons. Their dad lives out of state and never sees them.
I worked every day supporting them. They each started to work early. They have never been in trouble; both went to a two-year college and have well-paying jobs.
I'm very proud of all the great fathers out there who were praised by their children.
I'm a senior, and still wish I'd had and known my dad.
Right on Bill Watkins. The greatest threat to this country are the sperm donors and brood mares in the black community. Thank you LBJ and the Great Society.
Don't forget those sperm banks. Where some white males have perhaps 100s of children out there somewhere floating around. Surely some of the babies are on the dole too. Not only that, at least in the case of Mr. Shaw, his children will grow up knowing who their siblings are and won't likely marry their own sisters and brothers. Not so, with so with 100s of white babies produced from sperm banks out there who might one day unknowingly chance marry their own siblings.
You are a racist. You are ignorant. You are highly illogical. I could go on, but you get the picture.
Sorry Easy, what I am is a realist and a problem solver. In 2010 SEVENTY-THREE percent of black babies were born to a single mother. How many of these idiots that get shot every day in Chattanooga do you think were born to a single mother? For society to solve a problem we first have to identify it. The biggest problem is the 73% rate among black babies AND the 30% of white babies born in a one parent household. Sorry if the facts don't fit your politically correct model.

It works as well as Oxiclean and this company claims not to do animal testing. I was disappointed to learn that Oxiclean does some animal testing so I was pleased to have found this product.

The best natural stain remover!
Posted by Reviewer2251020 From Washington on May 04, 2013
Purchased at iHerb
Switched from oxi clean to oxo brite a few years back...glad I did, it works just as well and earth/animal friendly. The trick is to soak heavily stained clothing with 2-5 scoops for a few hours or overnight depending on how badly stained. For whitening usually 30 minutes works although I dont always soak and my whites come out white. Or mix 1-2 scoops in a small bowl with a small amount of water for a pretreatment solution for old stains apply and rub with a brush (I use a toothbrush) and let sit overnight. Wash and voila no stains! This gets everyday kiddo grass/food stains out without soaking if washed within 1-2 days. Also I really like the quantity and the price! Their are a few other brands that are less quantity and twice the price! So glad I herb carries this product!

Tchaikovsky's beautiful score and an enchanting Christmas ballet. The Nutcracker series start on 29 November and will be on 21 times at the Hungarian State Opera.
Managed by the Hungarian State Opera, the Erkel Theatre is scheduled to officially re-open its doors one year from now (7 November) to the date we intend to establish and celebrate as Hungarian Opera Day. It is for this reason that, on the 202nd anniversary of the birth of Ferenc Erkel and in accordance with a government decree requiring the Erkel Theatre's "restoration to a state suitable for staging theatrical productions", we will be announcing that the public procurement tender for this work has been won by Laki Épületszobrász Zrt. on 17 November, directly following the expected expiry of the legally specified ten-day moratorium. From the end of the first phase of construction in March 2013, 100 days of test operation will begin at the Erkel Theatre, during which time the Opera House artists will play a total of 80 times in the famous building on Pope John Paul II Square. /7 November 2012/
The first premiere of the Hungarian National Ballet on the stage of the Budapest Opera in 2012/13 has been regarded as a ballet "flagship" worldwide for decades. For the picture gallery click on the photo.

Posted by: Terrance PitreMIAMI BEACH, FL – Beginning June 27, 2004 celebrate with friends and family and become part of a new tradition of Emeril's Sunday Brunch at Emeril's Miami Beach. Start Sunday off right with a festive cocktail such as a Mint Julep, Sazarac or a Brandy Milk Punch, followed by a menu of specially created dishes such as Grand Marnier Citrus French Toast; Blue Cheese Crusted Oysters; and Emeril's Huevos Rancheros. Sit back, relax and enjoy the entertainment provided by a jazzy jazz trio, and the beautiful backdrop of the Atlantic Ocean.
Hours of operation on Sunday include: brunch from 11:00 am-2:30 pm, dinner from 5:30 pm-10:30 pm. The bar is open from 11:00 am-2:30 pm and 5:30 pm-'till. Please call (305) 695-4550 for reservations.
Emeril's Miami Beach, located at the Loews Miami Beach Hotel, opened its doors in November 2003. It is the ninth restaurant owned and operated by Chef Emeril Lagasse. Like at Lagasse's flagship restaurant, Emeril's in New Orleans which opened in 1990, the menu features what Lagasse calls 'new' New Orleans cuisine, which includes the history and richness of Creole cuisine with the addition of progressive, cultural and seasonal influences. Emeril's Miami Beach features an extensive wine program with over 400 selections.
Designed by the renowned Rockwell Group of New York City, Emeril's Miami Beach includes signature touches that the Rockwell Group and Lagasse have developed, while paying homage to the architectural grandeur and significance of the unique historical art deco property. The restaurant occupies a ground floor space of 8,000 square feet and seats 240 guests in the main dining room, the bar, the food bar and the terrace. Design features include two vault-sized wine
towers with cascading Art Deco beaded chandeliers in the main dining room; a food bar with a signature metal and glass proscenium filled with spices; a long communal banquette in white leather, accented with sea foam green, paprika and silver fabrics; a solid onyx bar; theatrical lighting by Focus Lighting in New York; and a beautiful outdoor terrace overlooking the Atlantic Ocean.
Chef Emeril Lagasse is the chef/proprietor of nine restaurants including three in New Orleans (Emeril's Restaurant, NOLA and Emeril's Delmonico); two in Las Vegas (Emeril's New Orleans Fish House and Delmonico Steakhouse); two in Orlando (Emeril's Orlando and Emeril's Tchoup Chop); one in Atlanta (Emeril's Atlanta) and one in Miami (Emeril's Miami Beach). Lagasse became a national TV personality with the Food Network's production of "The Essence of Emeril" and "Emeril Live." In addition, Lagasse is also Food Correspondent for ABC's "Good Morning America." An established cookbook author, Chef Emeril Lagasse has written nine books including Emeril's New New Orleans Cooking, Louisiana Real and Rustic, Emeril's Creole Christmas, Emeril's TV Dinners, Every Day's A Party, Primetime Emeril, Emeril's There's A Chef in My Soup!, From Emeril's Kitchens and Emeril's There's A Chef in My Family, his second children's cookbook. As of July 2003, over 3.5 million copies of his books have been sold. In September 2002, Emeril established the Emeril Lagasse Foundation to support and encourage programs creating developmental and educational opportunities for children. Lagasse's corporate office, Emeril's Homebase, is located in New Orleans. Emeril's Homebase houses Lagasse's restaurant operations, as well as cookbook and recipe development and testing, product shipping, the emerils.com website, and a store front for Lagasse's signature products.

Affliction Cluster Polo
SALE $46.00 was $58.00 Item #10400A6192- Embroidered crystal wash pique polo
- "Standard" patch
Affliction Cluster Polo 1 1
Nice Shirt Purchased this shirt in the store. I normally wear a XXL, but this shirt seemed to run a little smaller than most of the Affliction shirts I own, so I chose to get the XXXL. I wear a lot of Affliction t-shirts and wanted something a little different so I chose this. Had several comments on it, so I would recommend it. December 29, 2012

The playoffs are coming! The playoffs are coming!
I don't know why but that line reminds me of something... I tried googling it, turns out "The Russians Are Coming, the Russians Are Coming" is an American comedy film from 1966.
Basically, I have no idea what "The playoffs are coming!" makes me think of; because I sure as shit have not seen any comedies from the year my dad realized lotion wasn't just for girls.
That's all pointless anyway, we're here to talk about football! Playoffs more specifically! WHY ALL THE EXCLAMATION POINTS?!?! SO EXCITED!!!
Why am I excited?
Allow me to itemize...
1. We're over halfway through the year, the playoff picture is clearing up.
2. The Seahawks are right in the middle of that picture, for the first time in five years (not including the time Seattle made it in with a losing record - that doesn't count).
3. Both of America's annual favorites are already just a couple short weeks away from being eliminated!!!
4. Number three is referencing the Cowboys and Jets, I get so damn tired of hearing about them.
I'm going to try to do a few things for you every week: Talk about each teams remaining schedule in an attempt to guess who I think makes it in, as well as list some reputable websites predictions on how everything will shake out. I'll also give you insider tips on who to root for this weekend, and who to send all your bad juju to.
As it stands now
Right now the Seahawks (5-4) are sitting on the second wildcard spot behind Green Bay (6-3), one and one half games back of San Francisco (6-2) in the division.
On the outside looking in are:
Vikings (5-4, lose tiebreaker to Seahawks by virtue of loss in week 9)
Lions (4-4, own tiebreaker over Seahawks by virtue of win in week 8)
Buccaneers (4-4, 2-4 in conference)
Cardinals (4-5, own tiebreaker over Seahawks currently by virtue of week 1 win)
What do those other guys have going on right now?
Green Bay: With road games against the Lions and Giants following this week's bye, the Packers are in immediate danger of losing their grasp on that fifth playoff spot. They'll likely need to win at least one to keep ahead of the Seahawks, Vikings, & Lions.
Minnesota: A visit from the Lions awaits them this weekend, with Green Bay on a bye, this is a chance to pull to within a half game of the Pack.
Lions: Same goes for the Lions as goes for the Vikings. Keep up with the Packers.
Cardinals: Having lost five straight games, I want to say talking about the Cards is a waste of time; but they won four straight before that and there's always the chance they could run off a few straight wins with... nevermind. They are on a bye this week, and face an Atlanta team that hasn't lost yet in week 11. If they lose that game, you can pretty much call them cooked.
49ers: At home against the Rams this week, the Niners will likely hold serve going into their bye. A loss would open the door for Seattle, should they win this week against the Jets
What're the Odds?
By that I mean, what are the odds these guys end up in the playoffs?

I pulled these from the sites listed above; a few interesting things pop up to me at first glance, Football outsiders seems to have almost completely decided it knows who is going to make the playoffs. I'm guessing that's because they use their DVOA ratings to calculate odds, so teams that are rated highly will come out on top over the thousands and thousands of simulations they run.
MakeNFLplayoffs.com gives each team a 50% chance in each remaining game; Playoffrace.com doesn't state how it comes up with calculations, although I'd assume it's similar as the odds for the two seem to mirror each other.
I'm not a fan of giving everyone even odds in each remaining game personally; we're far enough into the season that we know the Rams won't beat the 49ers half the time, maybe one in three at best.
-Sidenote- Really PlayoffRace? Was this really necessary?
Who should we root for?
Besides the Seahawks obviously? These are the games that most impact Seattle's chances to make the playoffs, and who you'd hope to win.
Chargers @ Buccaneers: Chargers all the way. The Bucs have a tough schedule and I don't see them winning more than 9 anyways, but we may as well hope they get the first of their three required losses out of the way this week.
Texans @ Bears: Go Texans. There's no huge impact for the Seahawks here unless a Bears loss kicks off some sort of crazy slide for them, but when in doubt, root against other NFC opponents
Falcons @ Saints: Falcons all day. Saints look like they're out of it right now, let us all hope together that they stay that way.
Rams @ 49ers: DOWN WITH THE NINERS!!! I hate them, and the Seahawks are only a game and a half out.
Giants @ Bengals: Send your "bad juju" Eli Manning's way, down with the Giants.
Broncos @ Panthers: I'm rooting against the Broncos here, in hopes that it lights a fire under their asses and they use that to whoop the only NFC team remaining on their schedule, the Bucs, in a couple weeks.
Cowboys @ Eagles: Always root against the NFC East. In this case... just shoot your television, or hope a black hole opens up and sucks both teams into it, along with all those nasty Philly fans.
By the way, I figured it out... it was Paul Revere. The BRITISH are coming! And by the way, he didn't actually say that.
We won the war anyways, so now we vote and there is no queen. Good work Paul, voting is all thanks to you.

Fleet Is Fully Renovated and Renamed to Honor Viking's Russian Heritage
Viking's completely renovated Russia ships form the very best fleet of river cruise vessels in the region. Viking has rechristened the ships to honor important figures in Russian history and would like to share their story with you.
In the 9th century A.D., a Varangian (Viking) warrior called Rurik came to the large medieval state of Novgorod, which stretched from the Baltic Sea to the Ural Mountains. There he established Kievan Rus, which absorbed Novgorod and more. Rurik and his family began the Rurikid dynasty, which ruled a powerful and successful state for several hundred years. This land became the country we now know as Russia. One of the Russia ships has been named Viking Rurik to honor the leadership of Rurik and the Rurikid dynasty.
Viking Rurik's sister ships—Viking Helgi, Viking Ingvar and Viking Truvor—are named for members of the original Rurikid family of explorers. Helgi was a contemporary of Rurik's, perhaps a brother-in-law; he is known in Russian as Oleg of Novgorod or Oleg the Seer. Truvor, one of Rurik's brothers, took charge of Izborsk, an area near what is now Russia's border with Estonia, securing those lands for Kievan Rus. Ingvar, a son of Rurik known in Russian as Igor of Kiev, was seated in Kiev in 907 A.D. by Helgi, who had raised young Ingvar after his father's death.
What makes these ships worthy of such distinguished names? We are glad you asked.
In addition to redefining the interior space to create significantly larger staterooms, the ships' full bow-to-stern refurbishment is highlighted by full, private verandas added to all staterooms on the Upper and Middle decks, which house four Suites, two Junior Suites and 60 Veranda Staterooms. At 405 square feet, the two-room Suites will each have separate sleeping and sitting areas, two Sony 26-inch flat-panel televisions, a walk-in closet and a full bathroom with double sinks and a separate bathtub and shower. Other in-room amenities for all staterooms include hotel-style beds, a safe and refrigerator plus premium bath products.
The ships also have fully renovated public areas such as the restaurant, lounge (complete with grand piano), library and bar, featuring Viking's signature Scandinavian décor. Other upgraded ship areas include a shaded sun deck and a walk-around open air promenade deck. These modernized ships also include elevators that go to all decks.

I once called Playboy "pornography" on Loaded and, boy, did I ever get some heated e-mails!
"Playboy is not pornography! It is art!"
OK, calm down. Can we at least agree that Playboy is adult content?
Hopefully, that does not offend those who are so loyal to the bastion of nude female portraiture.
And, now, that portraiture will come in 3D. The June issue will be equipped with polarized glasses so that the centerfold jumps right out at you. In an artistic manner, of course.

While he did not make a great impression on WWE officials during his extremely brief stint on the main roster, Bo Dallas had a huge fan in CM Punk, who was said to have actually pushed management into bringing the developmental wrestler back up from WWE NXT.
Two of the hottest developmental performers in WWE are Emma and Paige, both of whom are expected to be a part of the main roster in 2014. The company is planning on featuring them heavily on the special WWE NXT live event that will be shown on the WWE Network.
One of the reasons why fans were protesting the backstage heat incident with CM Punk at WWE NXT is because security was taking away any and all signs that were related to the superstar. Fans felt like they were being censored, so they retaliated by chanting for Punk the entire night.
When Alexander Rusev made his debut at Royal Rumble 2014, many were under the impression that it was a permanent call up to the main roster. However, it appears that management wants the developmental wrestler to have a little more seasoning by working in WWE NXT for a few more weeks.
When WWE NXT makes its debut on the WWE Network, management wants it to be viewed as a huge event. So, instead of just featuring developmental wrestlers, the company has booked Billy Gunn, Bret Hart, John Cena, Road Dogg, Shawn Michaels and Sheamus to make appearances throughout the night.
A lot of fans are upset about the backstage heat situation with CM Punk, and they decided to let management know about it. The audience at the WWE NXT show this week hijacked the event by constantly chanting Punk's name throughout the night.
Kenta Kobayashi has been in the United States this week, trying out for a potential developmental contract with WWE. There are now talks that the Japenese star could be making an appearance and working a match at the WWE NXT show tonight.
Cody Rhodes and Goldust will be mixing business with pleasure this week, as the siblings are going to down to Florida on Thursday night to work a WWE NXT live event. Their father, the legendary Dusty Rhodes, works closely with the developmental program.
Santana Garrett, one of the most talked about female performers on the independent wrestling circuit, has signed a deal with TNA, where she will become the newest Knockout for the company. Aside from her work in SHINE and SHIMMER, she also appeared on WWE NXT before.
WWE has quietly released Judas Devlin, a developmental wrestler who was supposed to have been called up to the main roster to join Bray Wyatt, Luke Harper and Erick Rowan in the Wyatt Family stable. He has been removed from the official roster page for WWE NXT.
Leah Van Damme is now known as Carmella in WWE NXT. The developmental diva is still training to become a professional wrestler, and it appears that it might take some time, as she is simply being utilized as a ring announcer at the various live events that NXT runs in Florida.
"As far as my future goals, I hope to be a regular commentator on WWE NXT. From there, I hope to be part of a team to call Monday Night Raw or SmackDown. I would also like to be a trainer and producer for WWE at some point. I like to set lofty goals and tackle them a day at a time."
- Tensai
"At the WWE camp, Bill DeMott said nobody on the indies is as good as NXT guys. I'd LOVE to debate Bill DeMott on what he thinks "good wrestling" is."
While he still continues to appear as an active in ring performer for WWE, Tensai is also working a side job as a commentator for NXT. The belief is that the veteran is simply preparing himself for a potentail career after he retires from the ring.
Billy Gunn wrestled a match at an NXT event in Tampa last night. The former WWE star worked the main event against Bo Dallas. Since it was a no disqualification match, lots of weapons were used and interference was aplenty.
Aside from working as a trainer, Nick Dinsmore is also making appearances for NXT as well. At a live event in Tampa this week, the former WWE star showed up in the ring to save Santa Claus and his diva helpers from an attack by Aiden English.
Batista was backstage at the NXT television taping this week, and the belief is that he was there to meet with Triple H, who made an appearance on screen.
Fans at the NXT television taping this week were very vocal towards special guest Triple H, as many beleive that he is the reason why Kassius Ohno is no longer with WWE.
A lot of names are being thrown around as potential candidates to join Jeff Jarrett in the new wrestling promotion that he is currently working on. Rob Conway has become an interesting candidate, as he can also do other things backstage to help the company grow.
Rob Conway has now become a double champion, serving as the NWA heavyweight and tag team champion.
Former WWE star and current NWA champion Rob Conway is currently doing a tour of Japan.

Ben Carson is a hero in my book, and so needed at this time.

The country has lost its way....anything is OK ´cause there are no moral absolutes, Fairness is the equal opportunity to achieve to whatever level you are capable of. There will be help available but it will not be given to you just because you are black, poor, white poor, etc.Because of your birth in whatever family condition it is, it is NOT your right, just because you are breathing, to have everything given to you without the sweat from your brow.Obama has no core moral values. It is all about fairness in his mind. If he has read much of the Bible, it is by accident ´cause he certainly doesn´t seem to embrace much of its teachings except to co-opt a verse here or there to suit his political need.What a great speech.

The largest wind turbine on the eastern seaboard was recently dedicated to a former Fredonia resident.
Bruce Stokes - who was born in Dunkirk, raised in Fredonia, graduated from SUNY Fredonia in 1977, received an Masters of Business Administration in Industrial Relations from West Virginia University and last worked as vice president for human resources at Varian Semiconductor Equipment in Gloucester, Mass. - was honored posthumously with the dedication of Varian's $8 million wind turbine. The turbine stretches 492 feet from base to the top of the rotor and will generate about a third (9 Million kWh hours) of the electricity the company uses.
Nancy Langevin, who worked in human resources with Stokes wrote, "He left an indelible mark on the company and those he helped with his kindness, laughter and endless wisdom."

This memorial in Bruce Stokes' honor sits at the base of a wind turbine measuring 492 feet in height. Stokes grew up in Fredonia, and two of his children and their families reside in Fredonia.
She explained that employees of the company decided they wanted to do something in his honor. In addition to the turbine itself, a granite boulder done by O'Rourke Brothers Memorials was placed at its base. A likeness of Stokes was etched into the stone. The words offering tribute read: "When the Winds of Change Blow, Some People Build Walls and Others Build Windmills."
Speaking of the likeness of Stokes, Langevin wrote, "What an amazing job they did! It captures the twinkle in Bruce's eyes."
Company employees as well as members of Stokes' family gathered for the dedication.
Sandra Stokes, Bruce's widow, who turned on the turbine during the dedication, admitted she is not fond of heights.
"Bruce loved this project," she said, "so in spite of being afraid of heights, I did it. It was such an honor."
Sandra was delighted that their four children, spouses, and all seven grandchildren traveled to Gloucester for the dedication. Patrick and Tracy Stokes, as well as Amanda (Stokes) Thompson, her husband Bruce, and their daughters Emma, Sophie, and Tess are residents of Fredonia. Lindsey, Sung, Jordan and Jonathan Baek, are from Hillsborough, N.J. while Brian, Robin, Noah and Cameron Shaw live in Watertown, Mass. Sandra lives in Seabrook, N.H.
Speaking of her husband, Sandra said, "Bruce was unique in the corporate world. He was a steadying force for the executive team."
Speaking about the turbine, she added, "It's a wonderful thing. I can look across the ocean and see it. I know that Bruce is still a steadying influence in our lives."

Have you ever seen a grown man cry?I have been in a state of deep depression after almost finishing my super A I dead ended the hydralics and blew the hydralic pump and the camshaft gear broke. My mental state is better now so I just want to get this thing done and running. I have a new camshaft gear and wanted to know how to get the broken gear off without pulling the camshaft and puting the new one back on. Thanks Bob Good judgment comes from experience, and experience comes from poor judgment.

Re: Have you ever seen a grown man cry?WOW
I never knew that could happen. If it's similar and presses on as hard as mine did on my last cub it'll need to come out. Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote. Ben Franklin
Re: Have you ever seen a grown man cry?Sorry to hear this........I know you worked long and hard on it.
Re: Have you ever seen a grown man cry?bob, i got your pm and would be happy to help you out. but the camshaft has to come out of the engine. that means removing the engine so you can invert it, removing the valve and oil pan covers, the rocker arms and push rods, and the front cover. then the cam can come out leaving the tappets in the engine. we'll need to clean the broken metal parts out of the block and look at the oil pump.
it could be done in chassis, but you'll have trouble with tappets falling out and the cleaning part. better to spend a couple hours and pop the motor. i'll pm you with my number. 'If they're tappin', they're not burnin'
Re: Have you ever seen a grown man cry?I've replaced the gears before and there is no need to remove the cam. You can drill and tap 3 3/8"s holes in the came gear and use a regular gear/wheel puller to remove it. Then when putting the new gear on, just go easy and tighten the bolt slowly to pull it back into place. I have actually replaced several this way in many of the lettered series, including my 45' A and 42' M. It seems many of them have chipped teeth and if they line up right, they can jump time. My A and M both had cam gears and governor gears with chipped teeth.
Also, just so there is no confusion, to pull the gear back on, I thread a bolt with a nut and washer on it, into the cam after the gear is started on the cam. I then hold the bolt head in place with one wrench and slowly turn the nut with another wrench, toward the cam and pull the gear onto the camshaft. This has always worked great for me. If you have any questions let me know. I had pictures of this at one time, but they were on my old computer that has since crapped out on me. Last edited by IH560 on Wed Jun 08, 2011 4:04 pm, edited 2 times in total.
Re: Have you ever seen a grown man cry?I just went out in the garage and looked for one of the old gears that I had removed this way and then I remembered my wife got mad about all the "broken junk" I was keeping around, so I had to throw everything away that wasn't good for anything anymore (her words not mine).
Re: Have you ever seen a grown man cry?the A and super A cam gear is pressed on, and lacks a threaded hole or bolt in the camshaft. otherwise it would be possible to do it in chassis. i suppose one could drill and tap it, but its probably hardened.
in this case the engine is ready to remove as it sits after pulling a couple of misc assemblies off, so its not a big job 'If they're tappin', they're not burnin'
Re: Have you ever seen a grown man cry?Yes, I do tap the center of the cam, it is very easy to do, taps really easy. After it's tapped, I either use a bolt as described or a stud. If I remember right I tap it to 7/16" coarse thread, your pilot hole is already in the cam and you just barely have to remove any material to tap it for 7/16 thread. I have done several this way and it is very easy.
Just don't do like some people and try to hammer the gear back onto the cam and break something or knock the plug out of the back of the engine.
Re: Have you ever seen a grown man cry?I took a trip to Art's house this past satureday and in about two hours Art and I had that cam gear swapped out. Art also installed a new gasket in the oil pump. So the gear is fixed and all I have to do is bolt the front of the SA back to gather again. kinda like Humpdy Dumdy.
Thanks Art for all your help. Bob Good judgment comes from experience, and experience comes from poor judgment.

Re: Have you ever seen a grown man cry?glad i could help. i found my spare a driveshaft, BTW. so i can align my clutch
'If they're tappin', they're not burnin'
Re: Have you ever seen a grown man cry?That's great news! I can't wait to see and hear it run (again).
Re: Have you ever seen a grown man cry?
Bob, I don't understand what you mean by "dead ended the hydraulics and blew..." Just how does one dead end the hydraulics. I want to know so I don't do that! Because if it can be done, I'll do it!!! Did you have the pump mounted with the manifold blocked causing pressure that killed the pump, etc? Thanks in advance for the explaination. Dale F Dale Finch
Re: Have you ever seen a grown man cry?
I have an IH 1000 loader that I am going to put on the SA. So when I bolted the hydraulic manifold to the touch control I installed the bypass block for the loader (DUMMY). The bypass block rerouted hydraulic fluid (there was also a plug in one of the fittings of the bypass block) and it had no place to go because the hoses for the loader were not installed. Hence the hydraulic fluid dead ended and the hydraulic pump build up too much pressure and blew out the side of the pump. At the same time the pump became very hard to turn (because of the built up pusher) and this broke the teeth on the cam gear. If my theory needs correcting please do so. Good judgment comes from experience, and experience comes from poor judgment.
1959 LO-Boy 1950 Super A
Re: Have you ever seen a grown man cry?Well, since I don't own a loader (yet!) at least that is ONE problem I won't face/cause!!! Thanks for the clarification.
Dale F Dale Finch
Re: Have you ever seen a grown man cry?Wow, after reading this post, I did not know you can "dead ended the hydraulics". But further, clarification helped!!! Spaceghost I am happy your SuperA is back running with the help of Artc. I just completed a overhaul on my SuperA and like DaleF(BDFinch) I did not want to compromise my SuperA with something I did that could have been avoided.

Over the past couple of years, gamers have been witness to a rebirth of the fighting game genre. Thanks to the efforts of many companies, but perhaps most notably Capcom, the genre has quickly risen to the top once more. Titles such as (Super) Street Fighter IV, BlazBlue, Mortal Kombat, and Marvel vs. Capcom 3 are at the forefront of the industry as they were over a decade ago. In the fighting game world, there is one gleaming difference between the casual player and the seasoned veteran: the fight stick. A lot of gamers can hold their own using the standard console controllers but anyone looking to take their game to the next level needs to seriously consider getting a true arcade-style stick. Just take a look at the competitive scene; you won't see a single player using a controller. All serious play is done using arcade controllers.
When it comes to picking an arcade stick for use at home, the market offers you a variety of options. Mad Catz in particular offers consumers a variety of options taking the step into the competitive fray regardless of their budget. Their latest release is aimed at the higher end of the market: the Marvel vs. Capcom 3 Tournament Edition fight stick. The lower end offerings provide a nice alternative to the regular controller but if you are looking for a true arcade experience and quality, this is the level of fight stick that you need. What exactly sets the sticks apart other than price? well, I am glad that you asked...
The most noticeable difference in the MvC3 Tournament Edition FightStick over the lower end sticks is the quality of its build and the parts used in the design. This stick uses genuine Sanwa Denshi parts for both the pushbuttons and joystick; specifically it uses a ball-top joystick with 30MM standard buttons. In terms of layout, the stick utilizes the standard Vewlix cabinet configuration, which has become pretty standard for most 6-button fighting games. In comparison to the standard Mad Catz joystick (as shown in the pictures included in this article) all of the components feel a lot tighter (physically) and are much more responsive. These components are built to take a pounding and maintain their responsiveness after hours upon hours of usage. I have easily racked up well over 20 hours of play directly on this stick and it is still as responsive as it was when I first took it our of the box.
The entire controller case is incredibly solid in terms of its physical build. Weighing just over 9 pounds, the controller is made to stay secure when rested on a flat surface. You won't have to worry about it slipping or sliding on the surface thanks to four rubber feet screwed into the bottom. The top surface is much larger than the standard edition controllers, making it a more comfortable place for players to rest their forearms during play. The striking black casing with red trim is topped off with a fantastic collage of the Marvel vs. Capcom 3 cast, giving nod to its pedigree. The whole package looks very slick and really stands out when placed next to other sticks; it looks like it means business and let me assure you, it does.

UoN staff are ready, steady for world's biggest health challenge
441 staff from across UoN campuses are primed to hit the pavement for health from May 24.
They will join a 180,000-strong legion of workers worldwide and walk, cycle, swim, skip or even salsa their way through the world's largest corporate health initiative: the Global Corporate Challenge® (GCC).
Diane Bunch, Safety and Wellbeing Advisor, from Health and Safety said that they are excited to participate in the program that has proven to enrich employee health and wellbeing.
"Many of our employees, like so many Australians, spend an unhealthy amount of time seated - at their desks and in their cars travelling to and from work. We want to empower our employees to shake up their sedentary lifestyles and incorporate some beneficial physical activity into their daily lives. GCC provides a great way to achieve this."
Over 16 weeks, UoN staff will team-up and work together to boost their daily physical activity levels, both in the workplace and at home. By adopting more health-conscious lifestyle habits, staff will strive to meet the equivalent of the World Health Organization's (WHO) active lifestyle recommendation of 10,000 steps per day. As well as making improvements to their overall physical health and emotional wellbeing, employees' daily steps will also take them around the world on a virtual travel adventure designed to keep spirits and commitment high.
Increasingly, desk-based roles, plus modern conveniences, mean today's typical employee takes just 3,000 steps per day - a far cry from the WHO recommendation. With inactivity linked to a host of chronic and increasingly common health conditions that include obesity, type II diabetes, heart disease, stroke, some cancers and depression, this shortfall presents a serious personal health threat to employees.
"Investing in the long-term wellbeing of our employees is an important step towards a happy and healthy workforce. We want our employees to feel good and to perform at their best, both in the workplace and out," said Diane.
Commitment to our community
Not only is the GCC and UoN helping to improve the health of our employees, they're also helping the community. For every adult employee participating in the GCC, UoN will sponsor a local student to participate in the free-of-charge Global Children's Challenge™. This is a classroom-based health program which encourages physical activity and the formation of healthy and life-long daily exercise habits.
"Community involvement is an important component of the University's Corporate Social Responsibility commitment, so we are delighted to support these children in getting active and healthy for life," said Diane.
UoN is looking forward to stepping up to the plate on May 24, and showing other local - and global - organisations what UoN can do. More information about the program can be found at www.gettheworldmoving.com
