I'm going to go out on a limb and say, no way...those two engines are from different worlds. Just eyeballing the intakes you see major differences. The 5.3 is plastic or composite and the lifter galey is sealed off by a plate rather than the bottom of the intake itself.
If you're looking for more HP, try swapping out an intake from a camaro or firebird with the 5.7...and TB, and injectors, ect ect...

Basically nothing from the new gen LS small block swaps to the old SBC series (265-400ci).

User Review: Therm-a-Rest NeoAir XTherm
Source: received for testing via the Trailspace Review Corps
(Sample provided by Therm-a-Rest for testing and review)
This is a great 4-season sleeping pad.
- Warm
- Durable
- Light
- Compact
- Maybe price
From the Manufacturer:
New for 2012: The XTherm mattress is the warmest mattress in the NeoAir collection, allowing you to go lighter than ever in winter conditions. Patent-pending Reflective Barriers give the XTherm mattress true 4-season warmth without the weight or bulk usually found in a winter-worthy mattress. The result is a mattress that weighs less than a pound, takes up less pack space than your water bottle, and provides serious comfort in extremely cold conditions. Pump sack and repair kit included.
First Impressions
Yes, everything I've read from Thermarest about the new XTherm mattress is true in my opinion. Over the years I've owned more than a few pads for sleeping in the outdoors ranging from yoga mats to full sized four seasons inflatables. I've owned the Walmart blue mats, the "Z" pad, the '90's version of an ultra-lite inflatable from Thermarest weighing in at over 2 lb., and I have slept on pine branches spread out to look like the pad that I forgot at home. I have slept in weather down in the minus digits, and always, without exception, when I get cold at night... It is from the ground up.
I don't go out without some kind of sleeping pad. For me, it is as essential as the tent that surrounds me, and the sleeping bag that keeps everything except my big nose covered. I am not over exaggerating when I say that I love ground pads. Heat conduction from the ground is very hard to combat due to the fact that our rated sleeping bags often don't do a good job of protecting us when we smash them down under our body weight. Our bodies can only heat up the bag that has loft, and loft doesn't happen under my big butt.
Sleeping pads put a barrier between you and the ground in two ways: They give your body a cushion from the hard ground, and they give you a thermal break to stop conduction up to your body that a sleeping bag can't. Sleeping pads are rated just like a sleeping bag. Some are rated for 3-season use and are often lighter in weight and more compact.
The NeoAir XTherm has an R rating of 5.7. That is an insulation rating that is comparable to other 4-season pad on the market. The NeoAir XTherm is a true, compact, lightweight 4-season sleeping pad that has lived up to my expectations.
Opening the Box
My NeoAir came shipped from the manufacturer in perfect condition. The instructions, repair kit, inflating sack that you carry the pad in, and the pad itself were all undamaged. The fit and finish is nice. Out of the 8 pads that I've owned over the past 25 years, this is by far the nicest (and most expensive).
For a four season pad I couldn't get over the size and weight of this thing. I tested the large, full size pad and it weighed in at a more than respectable 20 oz. The regular size pad is only 15 oz. It also packs down to the size of a water bottle, and that's not hype. It really does pack that small.
After opening the package, the first thing anyone would do is blow it up and let their 4- and 8-year-old daughters jump and play on it in the living room for an hour. That's what I did. It held up just fine, and to be honest, I probably couldn't have done that kind of torture test in the field. I left it inflated for two more days looking for any leaks. There were none.
Quality and Durability
At the time I'm writing this, I've spent 8 nights on the XTherm without any problems. The R rating for this pad is 5.7, and has I feel has lived up to the rating. It's definitely warmer than any 3-season pad you'll likely use. The bottom has a more durable fabric, and the top is reflected to be able to use your own body heat that has escaped from your bag and push it back up to you. All the fabrics used seem sturdy as well as the valve which seems to be the standard Thermarest twist valve.
The Thermarest NeoAir XTherm comes with a stuff sac that doubles as a inflation bag. I have used this method and found that while it wasn't as fast as using your mouth, you avoid getting condensation into the pad itself which could be a problem when using the sleeping pad in below freezing temperatures. It was a good idea to include this feature in a true 4-season pad.
I also like the thickness of the pad. At 2.5 inches It has enough loft to it to where I can fully inflate it, then use the valve to let out air once I'm on the pad to find that "sweet spot" of comfort. I'm glad I went with the large pad over the regular. The large gives you an additional 5" of width giving you 25" overall. At 6' and 200 lb. I've never owned a more comfortable pad.
Some of my testing happened indoors. My two daughters fall asleep much faster at night if Daddy is lying on the floor in between their bedrooms. I thought this would be a good test of the NeoAir XTherm. It usually takes them about 20 minutes to fall asleep in which I lie there, checking my e-mails or playing a game on my smart phone. Once they are asleep, I go back downstairs and usually clean up from the day's events.
To my surprise, I awoke to my laughing daughters taking pictures of me sleeping on the floor at 9 a.m. I had slept in the hallway all night which was certainly not the plan. I guess that shows just how comfortable this pad really is.
I like to talk about price in the Quality and Durability section. As of 2012, the large pad would sell for $219. The regular pad is $189. I don't know how you might feel about those prices, but let me put it into my perspective: I've owned a $40 inflatable 3-season pad from Thermarest for 19 years, and I've never had one problem with it. It has more than paid for itself over the years, and in fact, my wife used it just last weekend and loves it.
I'm confident now after using the XTherm that this pad will also hold its value for years to come. When I first saw the price tag I was hesitant; now I feel it's properly priced. Remember, The NeoAir XTherm is a 4-season pad with advanced material and technology that makes it an ideal choice for winter outings. Sometimes the best just costs more.
I count every ounce in my pack, so it's no surprise that I like how the NeoAir XTherm is lightweight and very compact. I use my sleeping pad as structure in my backpack due in part that my packs are frameless. I've hiked with this pad both on overnight and day hikes, and it's everything the manufacturer says it is.
Let me add: Versatile for frameless packs, and small and compact enough to take along for a rest nap on a day hike.
Bottom Line
I can't see how anyone who tries the NeoAir XTherm is going to have much bad to say about it. There are always pros and cons to everything, but in my opinion the pros far outweigh the cons. Perhaps if you are used to a rectangular sleeping pad, the mummy style pad might be a con, but I found it to be adequately roomy. It gets a 5 star rating from me.
So far I've had no leaks, I've stayed warm and toasty on some cold nights, it packs small and light for backcountry use, and Thermarest is a company known for quality, innovative products that I've trusted for years.
I don't think you can go wrong with the NeoAir XTherm by Thermarest.
Does it make any noise when you move on it? My friend has a winter rated pad that makes sounds everytime he turns over. I find that most irritating.
1 year ago
I agree. I have one as well and it is the best pad that I've owned. My son says it makes noise when I turn over in my sleep but it has not woken me up. I wish it was about 2 inches wider. I'm 5'10" and 250 and sometimes I have a hard time staying ontop of the pad while I sleep. But my hips no longer hurt when I wake in the morning after using this pad.
1 year ago
It does make a noise when you turn over, but I never thought about it bothering someone enough to keep them awake. I'm such a light sleeper that I've worn ear plugs for years so I didn't get woken up by the sleeping pad. If you've had problems with noisy sleeping pads in the past, then this pad might be a problem. It's not as noisy as the regular NeoAir because of the heavier materials used to make it a 4 season pad, but it does make noise when you turn over. I'm sorry for not thinking about that as a possible problem when doing my review.

We just bought the NeoAir XLite at Campmor for half price because they were irregularly colored. They do not have the inflation bag stuff sack (at least it does not appear it would work the same way.) I got the Women's which is 66 inches and R 3.8 and my husband got the large which was 77 inches (25 inches wide) and R 3.2. Same mummy pad shape as the one reviewed. We'll be interested to see how they measure up to our old Thermarest self-inflating which had a similar R value. They are certainly smaller and lighter to pack. I'm sure they will be more comfortable although we'll miss the chair adapter kit we had for the old pads. Check Campmor to see if they are still in stock and on sale. Good price although the yellow is kind of a weird off-color.

Great review, thanks, you don't mention 'party balloon' effect - you know where you push down on one place and in another place the displaced air pushes it up. I ask because my wife can't use our NeoAir Allseason for this reason - the displaced air from her hips 'digging in' makes her feel that it's trying to push the rest of her body off the pad. Other pads use internal bracing to minimise this - what's your opinion on the XTherm? Also Google 'InstaFlator' for a very lightweight, small, inexpensive and clever inflator meant for inflatable toys etc. We use in for our inflatable pads and it cuts the time in half.

I've had the "balloon effect" in every inflatable I've ever owned. I simply use the valve to deflate the pad to the desired pressure in order to minimize this.

@middle aged campers: I have a 77" x 25" NeoAir. I bought a 25" Trekker chair and it works a treat with the pad.

Idk much about it. I've heard it's more of an addition to a stack kind of steroid. I've seen it in blends w tren mast test.
Whats the consensus on trestolone acetate?! I've heard so many mixed reviews but it's hard to distinguish between bro talk and real world experience. Pros would be the appearance on paper, and its ability to not be as androgenic. Cons would definitely be estrogen and suppression issues. But what's literature info and what's real world info. Let's discuss.
Idk much about it. I've heard it's more of an addition to a stack kind of steroid. I've seen it in blends w tren mast test.
My $0.02 from another similar thread
A good rule of thumb is that if it's that great, there will be a demand more so than what's tried and true. There is little known on this from the 5 minutes I spent on it besides he said she said. It is methylated, I can give you that much
It is 7a methylated and doesn't have a series of conjugated double bonds, making it less hepatotoxic than 17a methylated from what I know.
Found this on pubmed, granted they used much lower dosages but any liver effects would be marked. It seems a lot of people are getting the toxicity confused with cheque drops.
"Structural modification of testosterone include 17 beta-esterification, 17 alpha-alkylation, 1-methylation, addition of a 19-normethyl group, and 7 alpha-methylation. 7 alpha-Methyl 19-nortestosterone, a potent, synthetic androgen free of hepatotoxicity, has tissue-specific selectivity, being susceptible to aromatization but not 5 alpha-reduction, thereby potentially avoiding intraprostatic androgen amplification."
This^ is correct; trest is in fact fairly liver-friendly from what I've seen so far and there was another (animal) study that showed minimal toxicity even at very high doses. It's not a huge mass monster on it's own. It can be used like a moderate dose of test either by itself for slow steady gains and a recomp effect or used as a base in a stack. The 7-methyl estrogen it converts to is also quite potent leading to the wetness a few guys have discussed. I have topical formestane very effective at minimizing/eliminating this issue. I'm not sure whether or not it 5a reduces but if it's like other 19-nors then even if does it's not a very strong metabolite. Now, whether or not trest in it's normal state can interact with the prostate, I don't know. From personal experience; I'm not waking up any more frequently than usual to pee or having trouble fully emptying my bladder.
If the aim is something less androgenic, it should be noted that trest is androgenic enough to stimulate a sharp increase in libido and I personally have noted a slight increase in shedding since starting it...
What else do you bros wanna know?
Nostrum420 thanks for the input man. Yeah I believe the 7a methyl group prevents much of any metabolite formation so it stays in its true form for longer. And it won't 5alpha reduce into DHT, which makes me wonder what the androgenicity is from. I guess because it binds to the androgen receptors so much stronger? Also, I was just comparing aromasin and formestane. What are your thoughts on aromasin and injectable form? They seem similar, any key differences?
How U like the typical formestane? You apply it to the nipple area?
Well idk about ralox but I'm not talking about oral availability. Direct skin absorption into the nipple and mammary tissue would be better most likely than a systemic absorption where plasma levels are increased, and E2 crashes. Several people complain of low sex drive, lethargy, sore joints etc on letro dosages to reverse gyno, why not attempt to reduce those sides by targeting specific areas?
I agree most, but not all. Check out
"Formulation and biopharmaceutical evaluation of a transdermal patch containing letrozole"
"Oral low dose and topical tamoxifen for breast cancer prevention: modern approaches for an old drug"
"Transdermal patches for site-specific delivery of anastrozole: In vitro and local tissue disposition evaluation"
Ok. I'm sold. Where do I get transdermal legit anastrozle or letrozole? I wanna apply that straight to my nipple area. Pm me if u feel more comfortable
^I don't think they're available; at least not widely enough for bros like us to get ahold of 'em. Try the TD form though (formeron) perhaps AIs have some slightly different properties than other TD ingredients and can have some on-site bennefits...

However, one brand is leading the way with an email newsletter that has kept me hooked for nearly two years with fresh and engaging content.

CES: LG coins Super LED, introduces E41V monitor
LAS VEGAS--Though a few years ago LED backlights were a fairly novel concept to most, today virtually every monitor vendor is pushing LED-based displays out the door.
That must make it difficult for one manufacturer's LED monitor to stand out from the rest. LG's current solution is Super LED. This feature can be found in its new line of LED monitors that, according to the company, use 25 percent less power when Super LED mode is activated.
When the low-power mode is activated, the monitor's backlight dims and the display's gain is adjusted. However, it's … Read more

An astronomical unit of measurement that is used by astrophysicists and theoretical scientists. It measures the singular gravitation at a single point in space realative to the summation of all bodies of mass that lay within pull of the specific point. The unit is based on a number of mass bodies, as the number approaches infinity, that affect the gravitation on a singular point. The unit specifies that the summation as the number approaches infinity of mass bodies lay at a distance of 1.00*10^7 km in any given direction, thus making the point of reference the center in a circle of raduis 1.00*10^7 with the outerline defined by an infinity number of masses all with mass of 1*10^20 kg.
The point force on the particle, in Cowies, is 3000 Cowies, or 3 Killacowies.

If you're pregnant and haven't gotten a flu shot it's time to get one, says Geeta Swamy, MD, a Duke Medicine ob/gyn who recommends pregnant women get the vaccine each year, whether their pregnancy falls before, during and even after the flu season peaks.
"Maternal immunizations protect the mother, but have an even greater potential impact on your baby," says Swamy, a nationally recognized expert on immunizations during pregnancy. "It's only one vaccine but it has three very important benefits – it protects the mom, it protects the fetus by preventing the risks of preterm delivery and low birth weight, and it protects the newborn before he or she is old enough to be vaccinated."
While pregnant women are not at higher risk for getting the flu, they are more likely to suffer serious complications, Swamy says. Data show pregnant women are more likely to be hospitalized; and they have higher rates of pneumonia, respiratory complications and death related to the influenza infection.
The risks to the unborn child are just as severe.
"Babies who are exposed to influenza during the mother's pregnancy may suffer from long-term implications," says Swamy. "Even if mom is fine, there is some evidence to suggest that influenza exposure can lead to medical problems that include psychiatric disorders in the baby's future."
Swamy stresses that pregnant women who get a flu shot are not exposing their fetus to the infection. Rather, they are transferring antibodies against influenza to their unborn baby. That reduces the infant's risk of contracting the flu before they are old enough to be vaccinated.
The ability to transfer antibodies in utero is also important for other infections like pertussis, also known as whooping cough, which has reached epidemic proportions in some states. "The Centers for Disease Control now recommends that women get the pertussis vaccine during each pregnancy to protect their unborn child," says Swamy.
Since no immunization is perfect, pregnant women who have been vaccinated against the flu should continue to take precautions. "If you think you have been exposed, we can offer prophylactic treatment with anti-virals," says Swamy. If you experience flu-like symptoms, including severe headache, malaise, fever and body aches, call your doctor.
"The ideal scenario is to obtain treatment within the first 48 hours," says Swamy. That and a flu shot are your best lines of defense against a rampant infection that could have severe consequences for you and child.

The Phillies and Eric Bruntlett avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year, $600,000 deal. Ryan Howard is the only remaining arbitration-eligible Phil.
The article linked above also says that the Phillies designated Anderson Garcia for assignment to make room for Feliz on the 40-man roster. Garcia made one appearance with the Phillies, which came in 2007. On July 7 in Colorado he started the seventh with the Phils down 5-3 and gave up two hits in 2/3 of an inning.
This article suggests that the Phils are "trying to get to the finish line" with Kris Benson and that today is an important day in the negotiations with Benson scheduled to pitch for other teams tomorrow.
Anibal Sanchez says he may be healthy enough to join the Marlins rotation around the All-Star break.
A reader sent an email suggesting more attention should be being given to all the home runs that Johan Santana gave up last year. I'm here to help. Last year Johan Santana led the AL in home runs allowed, surrendering 33. Not only that, if you look at his hits, walks and home runs allowed per nine innings over the past three years, things have been deteriorating:
2005 | 6.99 | 1.75 | 0.85 |
2006 | 7.16 | 1.81 | 0.92 |
2007 | 7.52 | 2.14 | 1.36 |
And if that's not enough, last year he only finished fifth in Cy Young voting, which was his worst showing since 2003.
The next update to Philliesflow will be on Tuesday.

Celebrities And Their Botox
Kelly Ripa is the latest celebrity to face questions about cosmetic surgery with an honest answer: Yes, she uses Botox! Here are a few other familiar faces that have admitted to using it, too.
Kelly RipaIn an interview with Elle magazine, Kelly Ripa admitted that she uses Botox in her armpits to control sweating. She also said she figured that since the doctor already had the needle out, she'd take a stab or two in the face once in awhile. We would expect nothing less from the 42-year-old, tell-it-like-it-is daytime personality. Now, if we could just get celebrities to admit that they've had a tummy tuck following the delivery of their twins (are you listening, Mariah Carey and Jennifer Lopez?). Image courtesy Joseph Marzullo/WENN.comKim KardashianAt first this flawless Armenian princess denied having Botox, but in a 2010 episode of Keeping up with the Kardashians, Kim had Botox injections by her eye. She thought she had an allergic reaction, and swore off the stuff. In July of 2012, KK told Now Daily that she did swear off Botox — by her eyes, not in her forehead. By September 2012, rumors swirled that Kim had given Botox the boot for good, out of respect for boyfriend Kanye West, who lost his mother to plastic surgery complications. According to ABC News, most medical professionals recommend pregnant women avoid Botox injections, due to a lack of research on the subject. Something tells us Kim's image won't suffer. Image courtesy WENN.comNicole KidmanNicole Kidman's fans have noticed a change in her looks over the years, so the revelation that she used Botox is no more shocking than if she admitted to getting lip injections. Botox gives some users a Barbie forehead, but it makes others look like an ice princess. Nicole fell into the latter category. While using injections, Nicole had a frozen glare than made her look like the Wicked Witch of the West. She's admitted to trying Botox, but told TV Movie that she didn't like how her forehead felt afterward and that she "doesn't use it anymore." That's not how it looks from where we're sitting. Nicole's forehead is either still hopped-up on Botox, or she's just in a really foul mood. Image courtesy Apega/WENN.comSimon CowellSimon Cowell admitting that he's had Botox certainly helps answer the "What the hell happened to Simon Cowell's face?" question. Lately it's hard not to notice that his face has blown up to twice its normal size. So what's going on here? Is Cowell getting a little trigger-happy with the Botox or has he been attacked by bees and is experiencing an allergic reaction? Cowell has said that using Botox is "no more unusual than using toothpaste." Most people use toothpaste morning and night, so that may explain Cowell's present look.

All mock scenarios on the table
Trades could impact landing spots for quarterbacks and offensive tackles
Gruden's QB Camp: Matt Barkley
With the NFL draft a little more than two weeks away, my final board is coming into focus, but solidifying prospect rankings doesn't mean the intrigue is subsiding for NFL teams.
There are still plenty of options on the table as team needs are adjusted and players make final visits to NFL cities, working out for teams and interviewing with coaches, scouts and front-office personnel.
With that in mind, it's time for my annual scenario-based mock draft. I've laid out three possibilities for every first-round pick, with Scenario 1 reflecting the ideal selection for each team (within reason), but not necessarily including the player ultimately projected to that team, based on how the first round unfolds.
And trades are a consideration in this mock draft projection, which means plenty of possibilities for the top quarterback and top offensive tackles on the board.
Here's how I see things playing out at this point. As always, non-seniors are noted with an asterisk.
Scenario 1: With Branden Albert's future up in the air, the best bet for the Chiefs is to get a left tackle who can step in now, or perhaps a year from now after Albert plays out his franchise tender. Joeckel is a plug-and-play prospect with 39 career starts at the highest levels of college football.
Scenario 2: If not Joeckel, then Eric Fisher is the next-best option. He's not as technically sound and didn't face the same level of competition, but Fisher's ceiling is a little higher because he's a slightly better athlete.
Scenario 3: Trading out could be an option if Kansas City should get a reasonable offer that would allow it to stockpile picks, and also stay within range of Oklahoma OT Lane Johnson or a difference-making defensive end for its 3-4 scheme such as Utah's Star Lotulelei.
Stats and Info: Chiefs quarterbacks were sacked or under duress on 35.3 percent of their drop backs against five or more pass-rushers last season, the third-highest rate in the NFL. Joeckel was not responsible for any sacks against the blitz last season.
Scenario 1: The Jags would be perfectly content to stay home and take Jordan, whose rare combination of length and versatility against the pass make him a perfect fit for the Leo position in Jacksonville's new defensive scheme.
Scenario 2: If they don't opt for Jordan or another pass-rusher like BYU DE Ezekiel Ansah, the Jaguars could fill their need at cornerback with Alabama's Dee Milliner, the one elite defensive back prospect in the class.
Scenario 3: If the new coaching staff isn't sold on Blaine Gabbert as its quarterback of the future, this pick could be used (whether by trading back or staying put) to acquire the quarterback it thinks is the best fit, whether that's West Virginia's Geno Smith or USC's Matt Barkley.
Stats and Info: The Jaguars' defense averaged a sack every 32.9 drop backs using standard pressure, worst in the NFL. All 4.5 of Ansah's sacks last season came when BYU did not blitz, including two sacks when he was one of just three pass-rushers.
Scenario 1: For a Raiders team facing serious salary cap issues this season, the absolute best scenario is to find a trade partner that would allow Oakland to move back, get extra picks and ease its financial burden.
Scenario 2: There is a lot of speculation that Florida DL Sharrif Floyd is going to be the pick here, but I see defensive end as a bigger need. Floyd's lack of pass-rush production on the interior is a bit of a concern as well, and if I'm going to take a chance on potential I'd rather bet on Ansah and his rare physical gifts.
Scenario 3: If Oakland likes Floyd, he makes sense as a penetrating 3-technique in its system. His 13 tackles for loss last season are proof of his ability to disrupt inside.
Stats and Info: Four individual players had more sacks as part of a standard pass rush than the Raiders had as a team (12). Though Floyd had only three sacks, Florida's defense had nine players with at least two sacks, tied for third most in the country.

In the beginning there was... FIFA International Soccer?
It wasn't long ago that FIFA 13 was crowned the king of 21st century sports games, with 4.5 million copies sold in the five days after its launch, (1.23 million of those being in the first 48 hours) it's figures worldwide trounced sporting rivals such as NHL 13 (0.48m), and Madden 13 (1.65m), more importantly though, it exceeded its closest rival, Pro Evolution Soccer, (0.86m) which had Christiano Ronaldo spearheading the advertising campaign, who in this case, off of the pitch, as well as on, has been left in the shadow of this year's FIFA ambassador Lionel Messi.

Discover the Artist Within… at the 2D – 3D Showdown!
What sets 2D and 3D visual effect artists apart? Most would say, not a lot. Both teams of artists are necessary in the creation of stunning CG visuals. But have you ever wondered why someone would choose one path over another? What makes the ultimate Compositor or 3D VFX artist?
Anyone else bored of Apple?
I have been a long time aficionado of Apple products, thinking and innovation. I'm not sure what this means about me or the world around me, but I think I am finally bored of Apple and their products.

Don't get burned by an AC repair companyBBB tips for finding a trustworthy air conditioning repairman
AUSTIN, Texas – June 26, 2012 — There's no worse time for your air conditioner to go on the fritz than when temperatures are in the 100s. Before hiring a contractor to make repairs, Better Business Bureau advises you to carefully research contractors for a cool experience.
BBB has received more than 300 complaints against air conditioning companies within the past 12 months. Most complaints allege contractors were not on time and would not respond to messages. Other consumers claim problems still persisted even after the repair, or that some companies would not honor their warranty.
"BBB Business Reviews are a great place to start when looking to hire a contractor," said Carrie A. Hurt, president and CEO of BBB serving Central, Coastal, Southwest Texas and the Permian Basin. "Taking the time to properly research a company can often save consumers the grief of dealing with an untrustworthy contractor."
If you find yourself in need of AC repair, BBB recommends the following:
· Research company background and licensing. Visit bbb.org for the Business Review of any AC service company you plan to hire to learn more about its reputation and history of complaints. Confirm the company is licensed and insured.
· Compare prices and service packages. Get at least three estimates for any air conditioning repair or maintenance work. Utilize BBB's Request-a-Quote service to instantly connect with BBB Accredited Businesses. All bids should be in writing and should provide a full description of the services to be provided and the materials to be used.
· Review warranty coverage. Find out if the company offers any type of warranty or guarantee. Make certain you understand the terms and conditions of the coverage. Also, be sure to check the warranty on your current air conditioning unit to determine whether any repairs or replacements may be covered.
· Ask about energy efficiency. Many new air conditioning units are manufactured to be more energy efficient than others, which often qualifies them as tax deductions. Make sure you get the necessary paperwork to cash in on those savings.
To check the reliability of a company and find trustworthy businesses, visit bbb.org.About Better Business Bureau:BBB's mission is to be the leader in advancing marketplace trust. BBB accomplishes this mission by creating a community of trustworthy businesses, setting standards for marketplace trust, encouraging and supporting best practices, celebrating marketplace role models and denouncing substandard marketplace behavior.
Businesses that earn BBB Accreditation contractually agree and adhere to the organization's high standards of ethical business behavior. BBB is the preeminent resource to turn to for objective, unbiased information on businesses and charities.
Contact BBB serving Central, Coastal, Southwest Texas and the Permian Basin at (512) 445-4748.###

May 21, 2013 Sporer ReportHas Coors Gone Light?Patrick Corbin's filthy, complete-game gem on Monday night in Coors Field drew a chorus of Twitter facepalms as many fantasy managers shied away from the excellent-thus-far-but-still-unproven lefty in the terrifying Denver venue. Of course, if they read last week's Two-Start Planner, they would've had Corbin in their lineups, as I gave him a full "Start" recommendation despite the risk associated with Coors. Back-patting aside, I've been keeping a close eye on Coors Field this year and as I mentioned in the aforementioned Planner "it really hasn't been as scary as it was last year," and we may need to lower our threshold for starters to consider when they're traveling to Denver. It's not like the Rockies offense has completely fallen off, either. Their 5.02 runs per game is the National League's best clip and baseball's second-best, while their 5.55 runs per game at home also tops the NL and checks in third overall behind Detroit (6.20) and Texas (5.58). Last year, the Rockies were scoring six runs per game at home—baseball's best by half a run—so the competition hasn't been as fierce when opposing pitchers toe the slab in Coors Field. But it hasn't been anywhere near easy, either, and yet we are seeing a lot more success from the starters facing the Rockies. In fact, prior to the four-game set that started last Thursday against the San Francisco Giants, Coors Field had proven downright easy on starters. Before all four Giants starters were tagged for at least five earned runs, only Dillon Gee had been touched up for at least five there. Here's a look at the runs allowed breakdown for starters through May of last year and through Corbin's outing Monday night: |
