"Millions of men have lived to fight, build palaces and boundaries, shape destinies and societies; but the compelling force of all times has been the force of originality and creation profoundly affecting the roots of human spirit." — Ansel Adams, American photographer and environmentalist (1902 - 1984)
There has been a movement to encourage people to shop locally this holiday season. I would like to take it one step further and encourage people to shop for local art and fine crafts for gifts this season. Sustaining local artists helps foster creativity.

Cape Comment 9/21/07
Written by Ed Semprini
September 20, 2007
CHOWDAH BOWL -- There's a clan of self-described
watchdogs that calls itself the Chatham Coalition for Regulatory Compliance that is giving Chatham residents
a mixed portion of the willies and tickles. It's an anonymous group whose mission, described on letterheads,
is to "preserve Chatham's character." Its anonymity is so well protected
that not even The Cape Cod Chronicle, which covers the town aggressively, has been able to come up with confirmation of names of coalition
officers and members, according to staff writer Allan
Pollock. Late in August, under a headline, "Chatham Coalition Strikes Again," the Chronicle reported the coalition mailed an unsigned letter to the Chatham Golf Advisory Committee stating that the Seaside Links Golf Club's pro shop violated the town sign code by permitting internally-lighted vending machines. Douse the lights or a formal complaint will be filed, the advisory group was informed. That warning
followed a letter sent to St. Christopher's Church last month warning that a sandwich sign on the church lawn was illegal. The sign was removed by the church pastor,
who said he was unaware of the sign code. There can be no quarrel with a mission
to preserve a town's character. It's unfortunate -- and cowardly -- that Chatham
characters pursuing that mission choose to be masked . You can hear him sing and play at Amari Bar & Ristorante in East Sandwich; students at SCORE Music in Sandwich know him as their music teacher, and he is well known as far away as Liverpool,
England. Tom Kelley's popularity and recognition vaulted to an international status because of the "Pool of Life" song he composed to recognize Liverpool's 800th birthday. Silene Gordon of The Register tells the story of the teacher-singer-songwriter
who says his love of the Beatles' songs and lyrics led him to write "Pool of Life," which spotlights Liverpool, the home of the Beatles. A Liverpool newspaperman "caught" the song and his story led to Kelley's fame (see Newsquotes) . Cape Cod's winds are carrying the Cape Wind Blowfest into many corners of the land, and responses are blown back to the Cape press. One of the latest came from Albany, N.Y. David R. Paige in a letter to The Cape Codder wrote, " Whatever happened to those 'Stop the Outfall Pipe' folks? According to them, the Cape's beaches were going to be knee-deep in Boston, ah fecal matter by now On Cape Cod, it seems, paying lip service to environmentalism is OK so long as it is NIMBY." Who's This Guy? One of late Summer's better chucklers comes from Nantucket, but the happening was in Wellfleet.
Therese Murray, the first woman to preside over the Massachusetts Senate, passed it along to a reporter while on a visit to the island. A woman asked, "Who's this Murray?" when she spotted the political bumper sticker. Told that Murray was a state senator, the woman then asked if "he was a good one." "I told her 'yes' and then introduced myself," Murray told the reporter . Flag Flap: There's a Confederate flag flying at a huge home overlooking Stage Harbor, and a Chathamite claims it's a blight on the community.
"I'm ashamed that our community, that our harbor is marred take it down!" Shannon Griscom wrote in a letter to The Cape Cod Chronicle . Nah! Can't Be: Yes, there is another Provincetown,
but from what we read it's about as attractive as an artichoke, and the mayor is calling for a face-lift. This Provincetown is actually a section of Country Club Hills in Illinois and is associated with crime and trouble. The mayor wants it renamed. That led The Cape Codder to crow: "It's just as well, because as we all know there is only room for one Provincetown in the world."

Newsquotes: "I've found it to be personally very inspiring
to be in the same places, walk the same street and now even go in the homes where such timeless music as born." -- Tom Kelley on visits to Liverpool. (In The Register). ."The general consensus among the hospitalities and retail shop-owners is that it was a very good year. The bigger
established businesses did fantastic." -- Spyro Mitrokostas,
executive director of Dennis Chamber of Commerce,
on vacation season. (In The Register).
• • •
Press Speaks Out: " As for the argument that the (Cape Cod National) Seashore
as we know it will always be there, think again. The park is facing serious challenges from private developers
who are finding wasy to replace modest-sized homes in the Seashore with trophy homes." (Provincetown

Starting & Starter
starter fitment problems!
Bosch and Valeo
Starter motors.
Converting from a Bosch to a Valeo (and vice-versa).
Starter relays, starter solenoids, notes, advice, etc.
DENSO starter install
photo and notes.
Copyright, 2012, R. Fleischer
article 16-A
Refer to startingprobs.htm article for more information!! CLICK HERE!
Problems with starting BMW Airhead motorcycles can often be traced to a bad battery or its connections, but here are other possibilities:
1. Poor contacts on the starter relay
under the fuel tank. This can be repaired by opening the
can and
burnishing the contacts.
It is possible for you to hear this relay's faint click, and yet the
contacts are
not making electrical connection.
2. Poor solenoid (located on the starter motor) internal contacts.
A replacement is best; but I will have
more to say
later, herein, about how you might be able to repair one.
3. The starter itself may have worn brushes, worn bush/bearing, poor drive gear
assembly, or an
armature that needs undercutting
the commutator and truing on a armature lathe. It may
also be
heavily grunged-up with dirt/filth.
4. Early Valeo starters had a nasty habit of the
glued-in-place field
magnets coming loose and jamming
the starter. Some folks have
rebuilt them
using Saturn car starter parts. Better to change to a
Bosch...or, get an updated Valeo, or EnDuraLast, which is the easiest thing to
do, and
not expensive,
5. You CAN change the original Bosch
Starter to a late model improved Valeo (see 4 above). You may
have to do a tiny bit of metal
work, described later in this article. Be SURE to get the appropriate 8 or
9 tooth starter!!! Same, regarding metal
work and 8/9 teeth, if converting to the Denso starter.
6. A more expensive solution is to install the modified
Denso starter that is available from numerous
I am not convinced it is worth the large cost. Distributed/Sold by Motorrad Elektrik,
www.motoelekt.com; and
possibly available from such as Ted Porter's BEEMERSHOP.
These are modified-nose versions of the DENSO-made starter used
on Toyota's, etc.
Possible interference problems with this
starter, and need for some mild metal grinding, is shown with a
photo, at the end of this article. NOT a major problem.
some BMW's the starter is the ground for the headlight relay coil, but this is not a problem
starting; as all it does is turn off the headlight during starting,
yet leave the instruments & tail light on.
Starter relays:
See #1 above too.
Some later model Airheads use a starter relay
with a diode
inside. Some have substituted
0-332-014-118 relay (03-32-014-118), and some HAVE used a DF005 'Blazer' relay from AutoZone
stores (which has two 87 terminals and no 87a terminal). The Bosch starter relay uses two #87
and may sub to Bosch 03 32 019 150 for 1977+ bikes. That is a common Bosch
accessory use relay. Connector,
if you need one, is 0 334 485 007, while
the spring loaded terminals are 1 901 355 917. It is
certainly possible to substitute
almost any common 20 or 30 ampere 12 volt relay for the starter
relay on
Airheads, but there are some
such as with the /5;
and with late models with diodes in the relay, so ask ON THE
about it. Complications,
if any, are rather easy to deal with, so don't be discouraged
with my remarks here. MORE information on starter relays
in this article!!
Types of Bosch Starters used on BMW Airhead motorcycles:
There are at least THREE types of Bosch starters used on the Airheads
as original equipment: Bosch starters up
through 1974 were 8 tooth 0.001.157.007, rated 0.5 hp and 290 A. The /6
bikes for 1975 and 1976 used
an 8 tooth 0.001.157.015 rated 0.6 hp and 320
A. The 8 tooth starters are used ONLY with the
93 tooth flywheels; and are
for all practical purposes, interchangeable.
For 1977
and later, the starter
has to be 9 tooth, for use with the 111
flywheels (or more properly called the clutch carrier from 1981).
The starter is 0.001.157.023, rated 0.7 hp and 320
A. If you
divide the flywheel teeth number by the starter motor teeth number,
you get the gear ratio for the starter to engine drive. You will see
that the change made the gear ratio a bit larger; which
likely was to get the additional power. NOTE: The "Airheads
Beemer Club" had an account with Ace Houston Warehouse, a
wholesaler/importer/remanufacturer, ETC. The Airhead Bosch starter uses ELECTROmagnets, not permanent magnets, for the field coils.
Bosch does make a
permanent magnet starter, but I have never seen one in the
Western Hemisphere. It has been theorized that the Valeo permanent magnet type MIGHT
loose some magnetism over TIME and USAGE.
have held up surprisingly well....and I have had NO reports of this
problem. I would suggest ignoring this 'supposed' problem. The Bosch starters
have a bent metal plate at the forward end,
using one bolt to the timing chest wall. This supports the
starter to the timing chest wall, needed with the heavy Bosch. When
installing a Valeo in place of a Bosch, you do
not use the the plate nor bolt, and
the Valeo installation is maybe 6 pounds
lighter than the Bosch. When
installing ANY starter
especially careful that the starter is properly and squarely mounted,
you want to avoid
breaking or
otherwise cracking the nose (the casting that is the rear part
over the flywheel) during
operation. Be sure the mounting
cradle, nose area, etc., is
CLEAN of filth and proud metal, etc.
See later on that subject
in this page. This caution on fitting INCLUDES the original starter! The Valeo
Starter, and some Bosch information: We all know about the magnet failures on the
early Valeo's. Using epoxy to glue magnets may have its place
in this world, but there
were lots of failures, especially in Airheads where the starter is subject to so
repetitive heat-cool cycles and just plain engine
heat by direct contact. I do NOT like the ideas of epoxies being subjected to
constant wide temperature changes, their
expansion-contraction rate is vastly
different than the surrounding metal. The starter in an Airhead does,
sit right on top of the In the past I have been outspoken in that I personally
preferred the Bosch electromagnet type for our Airheads. However,
I am
on the latest Valeo starters (especially those from Euromotoelectrics)....and think them now OK....so, if you are making a decision between
overhauling your
Bosch, or replacing it with a Valeo.....or; replacing a Valeo
with a Bosch....I no longer have any especially
strong preferences
for the
Bosch over the Valeo (or the aftermarket Denso, for that matter).
For sure, overhauling your
existing Bosch starter, assuming the armature
is not going to
have to be replaced, is going to be much cheaper than replacing
it with a brand-new 'anything else'. The stock Bosch
starters are perfectly adequate. For
parts for rebuilding for both Bosch and Valeo, see
www.euromotoelectrics.com, John
Rayski. You may run into information leading
you to think about using a Saturn housing
when rebuilding an original troublesome
Valeo. Unless you
are trying to save the absolute maximum amount of money, I recommend you
get a new upgraded version
Valeo from
Or get them to fix you up otherwise.
Going from a Valeo to a Bosch and vice-versa: If you decide to change your failed Valeo to a
Bosch: Brand New Bosch's are very pricey and probably not
available. Try to find a
good used one,
rebuild it if needed. Generally you need only a set of brushes and bushings (bearings)
and a solenoid assembly.
If the Bendix drive is questionable, replace it.
The solenoids
can often be rebuilt too but I do NOT recommend it, although I
the information in this article. You may have to undercut the
armature, farm this out
or do it yourself, it is not difficult.
MUST obtain and
use the forward bent metal plate when using the Bosch. NOTE!: This is applicable to
1985-1988 models: There is a POTENTIAL
problem, not commonly known, and there is even a BMW SI (Service
in other words, a Bulletin) on it, and the bulletin is 12-013-9
(2389). If the
original starter relay is the
61-31-1-244-019 (that's a BMW number, not a
Bosch number!), it contains a diode, and has other properties that
BMW thinks
do not match

continue to run! Valeo install where original
was Bosch: When
retrofitting a Valeo to a BMW Airhead that had come originally
a Bosch starter, there can be an metal interference problem, which can
very slight
and hardly noticeable, ...to more moderate. The problem comes
about because
the starter nose machining is NOT EXACTLY the same between
the Bosch and the Valeo
starters themselves, and BMW was, perhaps, a
bit more careful about
machining the engine case
when the Valeo was
installed as the stock starter. It is my belief that
when BMW shipped their
own Valeo starters on the later Airheads, that the machining on
their Valeo
nose might be very slightly different. I have not made
enough measurements
to prove this.
I strongly suggest that
ANY time
you replace or even re-install, ANY starter, that you CAREFULLY check its fitment!!
There have
been instances of a starter poorly
fitted, and the nose breaking! The starter does not fit perfectly,
may not want to go
fully downwards at that nose
area and the Valeo threaded bolt
holes (or even Bosch unthreaded ones??) may
line-up perfectly. Inspect carefully, and use a
half-moon fine file, or a small
electric rotary tool of some sort, to make this inside area
smooth at the top, with
NO metal that is 'proud' (or of lesser diameter, causing a reduced
can feel this with a fingertip, and usually see it with your #1 eyeball.
I have personally
seen this and had to remove about .020" (+-), on both sides, at that
top area. This is easy to do, and
then the Valeo (Bosch?) SHOULD fit/mount correctly.
Overhauling the Bosch: Bosch
starters are used in a variety of makes and models of
vehicles. Sixties and Seventies VW's, for
one example use similar starters to the ones in Airheads. They vary some, but are mostly the same.
So, it is not difficult, even at some auto-parts stores,
to get
parts. I do, however, suggest you get them
www.Euromotoelectrics.com ,
so you can be sure of getting
correct parts, and at very nice prices. Not shown anyplace that I know of, is how to overhaul a
malfunctioning solenoid switch. I have removed the terminal end cap.
To do so, you need a large soldering iron with a big tip.
Even a 35 watt
iron with a big tip will work. It is the MASS of the tip
that is important. A
very large soldering
gun (perhaps the
275 watt size) might also work OK.
Inside you will see the flat switch
contacts recessed in the cap you removed....and the mating
contacts held to the
solenoid with a funny 'nut'. I usually don't
bother disassembling further the plunger side. BEST way to clean the contacts in the
cap and at the end of the plunger: Use one of the very
small rotary
stainless steel (or brass) cone-shaped brushes, that
you can put in your drill press or electric drill. They
very little material, and it takes only a few seconds at
modest rpm.
An acceptable other method is with
the flat
end of a piece of doweling or other tool, covered in 220
grit sandpaper. You MUST keep the
contacts FLAT and square to the assembly, so maximum contact
surface will be obtained. The solenoid should be tested with it mounted
and connected-up to the starter.
Do the testing on the repair bench,
before you install the starter into the engine block. You
will need heavy gauge wires. Connect the + terminal of the
battery to the
battery large
threaded terminal on the solenoid. Connect the - terminal
of the battery to a starter nose
ear. If you get a small spark from this, you
mis-wired the solenoid! Hold the starter strongly...it will tend to jump
around as it starts!.....and, using a jumper wire or screwdriver,
momentarily connect the SPADE terminal to the
+ battery
connection at the solenoid. The solenoid
should clicking strongly and loudly and the starter should run.
Overhauling the Valeo I was
going to write up how to do this, but a fairly decent article
with photos is on Anton Largiader's website, so here is the
direct URL: Note: Valeo starters
can be purchased from
www.Euromotoelectrics.com; and they have parts for Valeo, and Bosch, and
many other things. I highly recommend them (over Ace
Houston Warehouse, which is mentioned in Anton's article as well
as the one you are reading, well above this area). Euromotoelectrics Valeo's are the latest type, with the modified
magnets AND magnet clips. NOTE the information and photo,
well above, on fitting Valeo's to an Airhead that previously came

Bob Spencer thought that the Bosch starters MIGHT be put back
into production at some point. Quite frankly, I have
not had a good reason to
deal with these folks.,...that is, I have had NO dealings with them. I
consider the prices HIGH....and I think their stock of
starters may
be getting thin anyway.
NOTE! The above
information is supplied as a
courtesy. MY SUGGESTION is to get your updated
starter here:
had dealings with John Rayski at
www.euromotoelectrics.com and
I CAN recommend him
for Bosch
starter (and other parts) and for Valeo starters (yes, brand-new
updated Valeo's) and their own EnDuraLast. He has the
proper Valeo starters with the updated magnets and clips; his prices are good, he
free shipping
(on some orders...and can be quite a savings on a
heavy starter)....and he is knowledgeable
about the use of these
in our Airheads. He is the same person who makes and sells
the EnDuraLast alternator
conversion for BMW airheads and for MotoGuzzi's. He can supply you
with proper spark plugs
and a lot of
other things. Look at his website:
www.euromotoelectrics.com You can also get these starters from
such as Ted
Porter's Beemershop
Be sure to use the Bosch (or other) starter with the proper number of
The Bosch electromagnet starter is very old-fashioned technology,
reasonably rugged, reliable, but less powerful
than the "permanent
high rpm with planetary gear type" like the Valeo. A nice property of the
Bosch field coil type is that as
it 'sees' a heavier and heavier load (cold
engine, thick oil,
it draws more and more current, producing more and more
power. Still, the ultimate power is less

are somewhat less rugged, but that appears not to be any big
even over many miles, at least with the updated type with the secured field
engine, inside a cover!
The constant heating
and cooling cycling can crack or otherwise ruin the bond of the magnet glue.
Valeo addressed
problem (in 2001) by changing the type of glue and reshaping the side of
the magnet that fits against the starter shell.
late manufacture Valeo
starters are adequate and seem reliable. BUT:
There is an aftermarket
type of Valeo housing available
with a modification to help keep the magnets
from moving,
spring-type separating pieces (clips). Valeo permanent magnet
starters....as well as permanent magnet starters from many
manufacturer's, even Bosch, work fine in cars.
The proper
aftermarket Valeo's with the updated magnets,
bonding, and clips, are available from
www.euromotoelectrics.com and
probably from such as Ted Porter's BEEMERSHOP.
John knows the in's and out's of
all of them, and has a stock of all the pertinent Bosch
and Valeo parts;
and has Valeo starters
of the correct type in stock. Remember that there are both 8 and 9 tooth
The Bosch is a common starter for many starter repair shops, easily worked
on...but some may not have the parts for the
starter used in our
Airheads. The same sort of comment could be
made about the Valeo and Denso.
Keep the Bosch 'Bendix' drive lubricated. I like to use a
silicone grease due to its general non-hardening and
temperature range. But, I have some mixed feelings about the use
of silicone's on fast moving parts, and
maybe a lightly laced moly grease is better...I am NOT sure about
this. Starter
rebuilders may have ideas.
BMW says that the proper relay is 61-36-1-391-397, which has a higher
capacity, and a stronger spring to help the contacts open.
If you have to
replace the -019
relay, BMW will supply the -397 relay.
It also has the diode
inside. Some have substituted generic 30
ampere relays.
NOTE that I have not
actually heard of anyone having this sticking problem due to the
starter-swap. I
have heard of it happening due to sticking relay problems, but
maybe only once
or twice since I began working on Airheads! So, it is likely a
very rare event. On the
other hand, it is my belief that if there IS a problem with
putting a Valeo into an
Airhead that came with a Bosch, that the problem is likely only
with 1985-1988
To avoid
confusion, if you have a
pre-1985 Airhead, the
stock relays seem to
hold up just fine with the Valeo.
have MEASURED the current draw of the
Bosch and the Valeo solenoid coils
under actual starter use, and they are NOT
excessive, and are just about equal!
The inductive kick-back voltage is also
comparable. This solenoid
coil current is the current
that passes through
the starter relay contacts. I would
not be
inclined to replace the
early stock relay,
although I might open
it and burnish the contacts. Again.....it is my belief that
problem, if there really is one (per BMW), that it is confined to the
1985-1988 models.
I THINK that this particular metal interference problem will be seen
only when
installing a Valeo in place of a Bosch, but I am not 100% sure about that.
So, my advice here is generic, and assumes you will check
fitment of either Bosch or Valeo (and Denso, for that matter!,
see much later in this article for that starter).
Frankly!!....I think that anytime you remove and replace even the
SAME starter that
was in the bike....that you should check for the proper
you remove the old starter, LOOK carefully at the area the
aluminum nose
of the old starter had
recessed into, just forward of where the gear mates to the
flywheel (or 'clutch
carrier', 1981+) teeth. On some Airheads, BMW may
have cleaned up excessive metal over the
last 1/2" or so of the round
cavity, at the top inside
edge. When you try to
install the starter (probably this
happens only with the Valeo, but I am NOT sure about that), you
may find
some combination of the following:
The Valeo, as opposed to the Bosch, has threaded holes,
so you use the bolts
you had from the Bosch, sans nuts, from the rear.
Note the excess material at the left. Don't worry if
you remove a bit too much material! DO NOT
remove material at the bottom. Since I can not
visually see YOUR installation, check how the
nose fits, very carefully, at ALL POINTS. Use
a dentists mirror and strong light.
That is because most people will replace the solenoid. A malfunctioning solenoid
that has an open winding is
not repairable. However, most
of the time the problem is poor contacts inside; although poor
contacts at the
brushes of the starter can make the solenoid act
like it was bad. Below are
photos of a Bosch solenoid unit
as used on our Airheads. IF THE SOLENOID CONTACTS ARE REALLY WORN OUT, IT
You undo the 2 screws as shown,
and then put a slight to modest amount of pressure on the end cap
(as if
trying to remove it), whilst you heat the solder joints until
they release. Go back and forth to the soldering places;
until the cap comes
Clean up the solder holes. It is
VERY important not to mix up which wire goes to what
hole!!!...so watch them as you remove the cap. DONT
GOOF HERE!!! The easiest way to avoid this is to
mark the end cap and body before removal!
There are 4 solid conductor wires. The
wires (push the insulation back a bit if you need to, to see the pair)
go to the battery terminal, and the single wire
goes to the SPADE terminal.
DO NOT mix this up!
You've already
marked the case and cap so you won't mix them up, right?
There is one
other wire that is
spot-welded to the
metal end case. The single wire next to it is
the one that goes to
the spade
terminal. You did note where the
went when you removed the cap? If you goofed and did not
mark the cap and body, the
information here
guide you to the proper fitment of the
wires before you re-solder.
When re-assembling, you need to be sure the solenoid contacting
plate fits into its mating cap depressed area
portion, and the
wires go to the
correct terminals! You can assemble the
cambric ring and the wires to the cap,
and lift the cap
a wee
bit, and rotate the tang at the far end of the solenoid, to line
up the contacting plate with
the cap cavity.
Push against the tang
end, holding the cap end, on your bench top, to be sure the
plate actually moves
into the cavity for it. Assemble cap (align wires and pegs) to the plunger side of the
unit carefully, using #1 eyeball, and
test that the solenoid plunger
mechanically works OK with your fingers, then
screw the
cap on with the two
screws (locate the pegs!)...and THEN solder the terminals.
Use ONLY a very hot
large tip soldering iron. Use standard rosin core
electronics solder. Be careful to assemble
1. Light interference with the solenoid to the
starter cavity cover (rib on it).
2. Interference at the mounting ear on the back
cover. In the photo, below, you can see that the ear has
been ground down so as to give about 1-2 mm of clearance between
the crankcase and the starter ear.

As the country�s IT-BPO services export industry is ramping up its presence in the US amid a protectionist stance, Wipro has embarked on a globalisation initiative to groom a new set of leaders overseas. Under its �Gateway of India� programme, the Bangalore-based IT firm is making its foreign hires in the US, Europe and South Africa undergo a stint in India with an aim of expanding its global talent pool.
Wipro has already provided intensive training programmes to local hires and interns from countries such as South Africa and UK along with a three to six months training in India to familiarise with the company�s culture and work.
�Globalisation is not about physical presence in different countries. The idea is to build local leadership. We are going to hire locals and get these people come to India to understand Wipro and its culture and groom them to become future leaders in their respective countries,� Wipro senior VP (HR) Saurabh Govil told FE. Besides UK and South Africa, Wipro is now planning to extend this programme to other countries such as France, Germany and Nordics region.
In South Africa, Wipro recruited 30 local students from leading universities to undergo training programme for three months on various technologies of the industry. They have been deployed in various projects of Wipro in South Africa. Similarly, the first batch of 19 UK engineering students are in Bangalore for a nine-month information technology internship programme to gain hands-on industry experience.
These initiatives are expected to help foreign hires get a better understanding of India and its different cultures. Wipro has been involved with these initiatives to get connected with the local communities in foreign countries where they have their presence. In the US, Wipro and the University of Massachusetts Boston have jointly announced the launch of a 12-month fellowship program in the US to train 120 school teachers over three years, with the aim of fostering excellence in science education among students from disadvantaged areas of Boston and New York.

Nats collapse as Cardinals rally for 9-7 win, ending Washington season
WASHINGTON (AP) -- Doesn't matter how bad things look for the St. Louis Cardinals. Trailing by a bunch, down to their last strike, they simply stay calm and do what it takes to win.
Erasing an early six-run hole in Game 5 slowly but surely, the defending World Series champion Cardinals got a tying two-out, two-run single from Daniel Descalso and a go-ahead two-run single from Pete Kozma in the ninth inning and came all the way back to beat the Washington Nationals 9-7 Friday night and win their NL division series.
It was the largest comeback ever in a winner-take-all postseason game, according to STATS LLC. No other club in this sort of ultimate pressure situation had come back from more than four down.

It is perhaps especially true for opera that there is a reason that some are not often staged. In the case of Ambroise Thomas's Hamlet, it is a matter of the music and of Shakespeare. Although there are moments of gratifying menace, winsome beauty, and some interesting articulations of a somber and contemplative Hamlet in this score, there is something about Thomas's style that leaves one feeling, despite the finalities, little sense of catharsis.
Over troubled water: Elizabeth Futral as Ophelia
(Photo by Karin Cooperfor/Washington National Opera)
Furthermore, by its very nature, this is a translation as much an interpretation since we must move from the spoken word to the sung via a libretto that cannot possibly reproduce the entire play. Does this opera capture the emotional intensities Shakespeare builds with his genius for language and the internal human map? No. As a composer, can Thomas succeed in generating an equivalent level of emotional conflict, darkness and intensity? No. So is it worth seeing? Yes, provided one takes it as a riff on the Hamlet theme - and a showcase role for the soprano singing Ophelia.
Avoiding a traditional staging of the play, which is probably a good thing, this Washington National Opera production sets the action in an anonymous vintage-era totalitarian state. The set – save for Ophelia's intriguing though incongruous riverbed – is something akin to the decrepit backside of a coliseum. Not as obtrusive as it sounds, this space is used deftly to suggest both interior and exterior scenes. It generally succeeds in conjuring the bleak emotions of the piece despite the distractingly anachronistic graffiti.
Offering an extended mad scene for Ophelia and other choice moments for a light, dexterous voice and plenty of dramatics, any review of this opera should be about the soprano. Unfortunately, on the night this Hamlet was seen, soprano Elizabeth Futral, a major draw to the production, sang only the first act before passing the reins to her understudy due to allergies. What we did see of Futral offered a promising glimpse of the control and sweetness of tone she might have brought to Ophelia's dissolution, even if her acting tends toward the overly affected. Domingo-Cafritz Young Artist Micaela Oeste served valiantly in a demanding role, which Futral will apparently resume for the remaining performances. Unfortunately, this interruption in proceedings damaged the narrative tension and subsequent scene transitions, which were longer (and louder) than usual.
Once Futral left in search of her Claritin, the evening belonged to Michael Chioldi in the title role (shared with Liam Bonner) and Elizabeth Bishop as Hamlet's mother Gertrude, newly widowed by the king's suspicious death. Chioldi, a solid baritone inflected with more wool than silk, delivered some affecting and powerful notes. His main contribution, however, was in imbuing his Hamlet with some distinct personality; he wasn't so much likeable as credibly frustrated and ineffectual. On one level this energy seemed at odds with Thomas's almost lugubrious score and yet on another it worked. As the conflicted Gertrude, Bishop sang with an expressive golden mezzo-power which was perhaps the one voice truly simpatico with Thomas's score. The scene in which Hamlet forces Gertrude to admit her role in his father's death, however, played like a pro-wrestling out-take and falls squarely in director Thaddeus Strassberger's lap.

Tenor John Tessier sang his Laertes with a tautness begging for a bit more bravado while Samuel Ramey brought significant presence, if not great voice, to his role of the usurping Claudius. In the small roles of the gravediggers, tenor Jesus Daniel Hernandez and baritone Aleksey Bogdanov offered handsome voices with potential.
Although the WNO orchestra played with expressiveness under the hand of conductor Placido Domingo, there was a lack of ease and unevenness, which echoed the disruptions onstage.
And so: To see or not to see this opera? That is the question. Futral is the answer.

Best Wishes S2: Episode 6 Review - A very meh/okay episode.
, 2nd August 2012 at 09:50 AM (442 Views)
It was okay for the following things;
- Trip displaying more emotions in one episode than in BW as whole.
- Langley saying that she didn't lose to Iris, but to her Dragonite since Iris pretty much just stood there and did nothing while her dragon disobeyed her.
- Caitlin, Cynthia and Alder - Caitlin's intro.
- Caitlin and Cynthia interacting, Alder chasing after Cynthia.
- Ash using Leavanny.
It was a very meh episode for the following things;
- Dragonite was WAY too overpowered.
- Iris was cheering when she won, for some reason.
- Disappointing, rushed battles.
- Burgundy being kicked in the ass by the writers, what a surprise. -.-
So yeah, overall, a meh episode - I don't really give a crap about it.

It is no coincidence that such fantastic castles in the air are invariably the work of petit-bourgeois academics and bureaucrats with little experience of life and few real accomplishments to their credit.The coarse, crude, insulting materialism of these simplistic carrot and stick attempts to manipulate behavior from above is breathtaking. It plainly reveals the underlying values and beliefs of the architects of such projects to others, but not, it appears, to themselves. Click Here if you Like this Comment 1 person like this.

Part of the hidden agenda of Obamacare was to cripple Medicare Advantage while taking the money that had been the incentive for creating the program and use it fill some of the budget holes of Obamacare.For those that don´t know the Medicare Advantage program is based on healthcare providers contracting to provide care for individuals for a year. The provider is responsible for preventing fraud. If the cost of care for the group-year cost less than contract, the savings are shared between provider and government. To make there programs more attractive to the clients (and to make the cost more predictable), the often include vision and dental care. For the 20% of senior on very limited budgets, this is the preferred health care choice. Because there is a contract for care, there is no problem with access to care.

Mercedes-Benz Tuner Challenge at SEMA 2008: The GLK in Las Vegas

Stuttgart/Las Vegas - Mercedes-Benz has created an unconventional presentation idea under the heading "Tuner Challenge". Ahead of the equally unconventional SEMA Show in the gaming hotspot of Las Vegas
, the Stuttgart company announced a competition for tuning firms. The object of desire – the compact GLK-Class. The distinctively styled automotive character with an edge seems predestined to arouse a wide range of tuning fantasies.
Tuning operations were tasked with highlighting the possibilities presented by the GLK's wide-ranging talents through their ideas and designs. The four most convincing concepts were selected and the winners given the opportunity to implement their proposals. This process saw the creation of GLK models that are as leading-edge as they are unorthodox, and that now take centre stage in Mercedes' participation at this year's SEMA Show. "Widestar", "The GLK Urban Whip", "The GLK Pikes Peak Rally Racer" and "The GLK Rock Crawler" will attract attention even at SEMA, which is not exactly short on highlights and is becoming increasingly important as a trendsetting springboard for the European tuning scene. This presentation also represents the GLK premiere on the North American market, where sales are scheduled to begin in January 2009. "Our GLK is a character bursting with expressiveness, and a new model for us within a young market segment in the U.S.," comments Mercedes-Benz Head of Design Gorden Wagener. "We selected SEMA in Las Vegas as the backdrop for its first appearance in North America because we want to take advantage of the show's glamour and to underscore the highly individual character of the GLK. An SUV with an edge that is so refreshingly alternative, demands a somewhat alternative setting."
Good market prospects are being forecast for the compact GLK in the U.S. The visual appeal and functionality of its exterior design make the GLK a distinctive and versatile vehicle, as do its exceptional handling and excellent safety characteristics combined with superb comfort both on and off-road.
GLK-Class freely interpreted four times
Four fundamentally different rebuilds make one thing abundantly clear – the GLK-Class is one of the most multi-faceted SUV models ever, and one that retains its distinctive character, even in the face of somewhat unconventional modifications. With each respective tuner fantasy and the help of some exotic ingredients, the SUV has been turned into an exclusive specialist for the road, beach, city or rally stage. "We wanted to see what kinds of interpretations were inspired by our GLK and how they would further sharpen this very strong character. The tuners opted for completely differing approaches, demonstrating the potential of our GLK concept," continues Gorden Wagener.
With its
Pikes Peak Rally Racer
, RENNtech from Lake Park, Florida has created a motorsport vehicle inspired by the unlimited class of the legendary Pikes Peak Hill Climb in Colorado. The drivetrain of the RENNtech GLK is complemented by a hybrid module that guarantees excellent acceleration figures.
BRABUS, based in Bottrop, Germany, represents the German element of this tuning fraternity and presents the
, a production-ready, high-performance on-road vehicle that also pays tribute to the distinctive refinement
of vehicles bearing the three-pointed star.
GLK Urban Whip
is the name given by Boulevard Customs from St. Petersburg, Florida to its creation, which makes its entrance with a significantly widened bodyshell, massive 26 inch wheels and a mighty on-board entertainment system that, according to the figures, is likely to have an impact at full blast of seismological proportions.
The team at the Legendary Motorcar Company from Ontario, Canada, which is more commonly associated with the restoration of American muscle cars, created
The GLK
Rock Crawler
. The exotic design for snow and sand includes a winch system that can provide wakeboarders and snowboarders alike with the necessary impetus.
The base vehicle for Boulevard Customs, Legendary Motorcar and RENNtech
is the series production GLK350 with a 3.5 litre V6 engine generating 200 kW/272 hp, while BRABUS opted for the diesel-driven GLK 320 CDI 4MATIC. The base versions of all models are equipped with the 7G-TRONIC seven-speed automatic transmission.
Show vehicles with public voting
Mercedes-Benz is combining a voting program for the North American public with its appearances at SEMA and the subsequent Los Angeles Motor Show, where the customized GLKs will also be presented. At either show, or in the internet at www.mbusa.com, visitors can cast their vote for their favourite model. The winner of the "Tuner Challenge" will be announced on 2nd December.
The American trade body SEMA (Specialty Equipment Market Association) has been hosting the tuning show of the same name for over forty years. Starting out as a performance show for a specific few industry insiders, SEMA has grown to become the most important trade show in tuning, accessories, components and workshop equipment throughout the American continent, and is exercising an increasing influence on the European tuning scene. SEMA 2008 take place as always in the Las Vegas Convention Center, and is open exclusively to trade visitors from 4th – 7th November.

Despite the game being close early, the Aurora Christian Eagles took control to run away with the 41-7 victory in Saturday's IHSA Class 3A semifinal contest at Roscoe Eades Stadium in Sterling.
The Eagles struck first as Aurora Christian QB Ryan McQuade found Cory Windle for a sixteen yard scoring strike. The Comets fumbled the ensuing kickoff which was recover by the Eagles Trevor Hills on Newman's thirty seven yard line. Aurora Christian found the endzone again with McQuade hooking up with Windle on a twenty six yard TD pass.
The Comets got on the scoreboard as they completed a thirteen play, sixty nine yard drive, capped off by a four yard TD run by Jake Snow.
It was all Eagles from there as AC head coach Don Beebe's son Chad snagged a fourteen yard touchdown pass. Beebe would add a nineteen yard TD pass catch later in the quarter. A sixty four yard fumble recovery for a touchdown by Aurora Christian's MJ Zepeda extended the Eagles lead and the rout was on.
Aurora Christian piled up three hundred fifty one yards of offense to Sterling Newman's one hundred eighty four. The Eagles ground game was led by QB McQuade who rushed for two hundred nine yards and a score. He also completed twelve of twenty one passes for one hundred fifty six yards and four scores.

Early in the morning when the dew is still fresh on the grass, when the kids are asleep and the birds are starting to sing, I take a walk through my flower garden. It's not a long walk, and believe me, it's not the most immaculate garden in the valley. But it's not the flowers and weeds that encourage me to get my feet wet at that time of morning. It's the wonderment and magic that Easter morning brings.
Besides the distant hum of the milking pump in our barn and the birds passing notes back and forth from tree to tree, the earth is tranquil. And it makes me wonder how creation reacted the morning Christ arose? And once the wondering starts for me, well, I just wonder one thing after another:
I wonder, what were the birds singing when a grieving Mary Magdalene came to the garden to spread spices over her Lord's body?
I wonder if the earth could feel her frustration when she realized He wasn't in the grave where she left Him?
I wonder if the flowers bowed to the ground as Mary fell at her Masters' feet after hearing her name?
I wonder, were the trees dancing as she ran to tell the others the good news?
This year, I had my traditional morning early, just to make sure I didn't miss anything enlightening for this article. And you know, it wasn't any different than last year's walk in the wet grass. In fact, it was very much the same. The birds were singing their morning praises, the tulips were starting to open after their night's closure, the sun was gently chasing the shadows away, and my feet were cold and wet.
It made me realize that every day is an Easter morning for this earth. Every morning creation awakens and celebrates the beauty and magic of another day!
Celebrating Easter is a monumental event and worthy of a national holiday. But I think every day is worth celebrating Jesus. Of course, it would be good for me to remember that more readily, not just on Easter morning.
There's a lot of mystery to contemplate on Easter and someday this farm girl hopes to wonder all of that on Jerusalem soil. But until I do, I'll just keep rising with the cows on our Pennsylvania farm.

Dr.Singha's Feng Shui Spray - Air Detox -- 6 fl oz
Love this product!
Cleans and changes the energy of the air; this spray makes me feel relaxed and happy! Not a traditional air freshener.
January 30, 2013
Air refresher
It's OK. I wouldn't get it again b/c I'm impressed with the smell. Glad I tried it though.
August 10, 2011
Has a bad smell
I just do not like the smell of this product. Everybody is different how the smells they like. I don't think it has a clean smell.
June 6, 2011
Great scent
I really like this air freshener. It knocks out odors but does not itself smell too strongly. Made of primarily natural ingredients so there is less of a worry about breathing in the nasty chemicals some more popular air fresheners are made of.

Potty-breaking youngsters love their social networks
Social media is so pervasive that a growing percentage of young people refuse to part with their favorite networks -- even when nature is calling.
Some 40 percent of young adults ages 18 to 24 use social media in the bathroom, which is up from 32 percent in the previous year, according to Nielsen's Digital Consumer Report. The group is two times more likely than the national average to social network when visiting the loo.
Nielsen's report, published Monday, is compiled from a variety of sources and includes data from an online survey with a representative sample of … Read more

The Polk Street Gym is a boxing gym. It telegraphs its pugilistic philosophy to fitness by center-staging a large, full-size boxing ring just inside the sidewalk storefront windows that stretch from matted floor to lofted ceiling. Both aspiring sparers and everyday Joes, who only have thrown punches at dollar stealing vending machines, train like boxers. Members jump rope, run hills, hit bags, and shadowbox. These drills and exercises firm not just boxing skills, but also general cardio and strength capacity. With 29 classes to choose from, men and women, kids and adults find a fighter's heart in circuit training or boxing classes.
Dublin-bred, former Golden Gloves champion Simon Redmond leads a roster of trainers who are all current or past Golden Gloves champs, whose knuckles turn food, jaws, parking meters, and all they touch to gold. After immigrating to San Francisco in the mid-90s, Simon trained and fought for several years before opening a gym with a partner. At the start of 2010, Simon broke off on his own to open Polk Street Gym. He strives to whip people into shape through boxing, affirming his mission and his passion by writing that despite broken ribs, a broken nose, burst eardrums, and spilt blood, he has loved every minute of his boxing lifestyle.

EndurOmega (vol 14.13)
Mega benefits for enhanced athletic performance and overall health!
By Hammer Nutrition"Essential" not only describes what omega-3 fatty acids are, but even more so emphasizes just how important they are for EVERY single person, EVERY single day. EndurOmega is one of the most important products we've ever produced; it's absolutely a "must-have, mustuse" product. EndurOmega, Hammer Nutrition's fish-derived omega-3 essential fatty acid supplement, has more benefits attributed to it than just about any other nutrient or class of nutrients. We guarantee that daily supplementation of EndurOmega - two softgels, two to three times daily - will allow you to obtain all of the extraordinary benefits that omega-3 fatty acids have to offer, helping you take a HUGE step in the right direction for maximizing athletic performance and optimizing overall health.
Essential fatty acids - Crucially important for you
Omega-3's and omega-6's are essential fatty acids (EFA) that everyone needs for life itself. Yes, life itself! Not only are these fats a key component in the structure of numerous parts of your body, including your brain, eyes, ears, reproductive organs, and more, they're an integral part of the membranes that surround and protect all of the cells in your body. That's right, every single cell! If your body doesn't have an adequate supply of these essential fatty acids, most every bodily function that you can think of ends up deteriorating. That's why it's no exaggeration at all classifying these fatty acids as "essential."
However, three issues exist when it comes to EFA:
1. Our bodies cannot make omega-3's or omega-6's; we have to obtain them from dietary sources.
2. Nearly everyone is consuming far more omega-6 fatty acids than is necessary or healthy, while coming up woefully short on omega-3 fatty acid intake.
3. Consumption of certain types of fish such as wild-caught salmon, mackerel, and sardines two to three times a week, while being an excellent strategy to boost omega-3 intake, is simply not possible for most of us.
This is precisely where EndurOmega comes in. For the above-listed reasons, plus the plethora of benefits it provides, which we discuss next, EndurOmega should most definitely be a part of your daily supplement program.
EndurOmega's potent & wide-ranging benefits
Athletic performance - The fish oil in EndurOmega greatly enhances endurance because it increases the absorption rate of the fat-soluble nutrients Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) and idebenone, the two key substrates in Race Caps Supreme that are intimately involved in energy production. In addition, the essential fatty acids found in Enduromega support improved lung function (including alleviating asthma symptoms) and the utilization of oxygen, both highly desirable benefits for enhanced athletic performance. Omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil have also been shown to provide impressive anti-inflammatory benefits, which definitely helps when you're recovering between tough workouts and races.
General health - EndurOmega's fish oil provides one of the absolute strongest defenses against cardiovascular disease. Every day, an increasing body of research confirms that fish oil is a powerful ally against atherosclerosis, angina, heart attack, arrhythmias, stroke, and congestive heart failure. Fish oil helps to lower blood pressure, reduce elevated blood triglyceride levels, maintain arterial wall elasticity, and prevent blood clotting. No question about it, fish oil really is the heart's "best friend!"
Research shows that fish oil has a positive influence on brain function and mood, including the alleviation of anxiety, insomnia, mental fatigue, stress, depression, and more. Fish oil is beneficial for your eyes as well, helping to improve vision and aiding in the prevention of age-related macular degeneration. Helping maintain healthy skin and bones are additional benefits attributed to fish oil. Omega-3 fatty acids also play an important role in metabolism regulation and weight management (yes, to burn fat you have to eat fat . . . the right kind of fat, however!). Last, but certainly not least, higher intakes of omega-3 fatty acids may aid in the prevention of breast, colon, and prostate cancers (all three of these cancers have been correlated with low omega-3 intake).

Comments about Columbia Toddler Girls' Benton Springs Printed Fleece Jacket:
I gave this to my granddaughter. She is of daycare age, and a big heavy jacket is too much for the short ride to daycare. This is great for quick access and she can put it on herself. It is warm enough to wear as a jacket over a sweatshirt to go outside or with a t-shirt under to stay inside. She loves the design in her favorite color purple and it is soft and cozy (much like a fleece cuddle blanket) Great purchase for the children AND mom too.

Corrupt localstore.rdfFrom MozillaZine Knowledge Base(Redirected from Toolbar customizations reset on startup)
[edit] SolutionIf you have a backup copy of the localstore.rdf file from a working profile, a quick remedy is to close your Mozilla application and overwrite the localstore.rdf file in the profile folder with your backup copy (see Profile folder - Firefox or Profile folder - SeaMonkey for profile folder locations). [5] If you have no localstore.rdf backup, you will need to close Firefox (or SeaMonkey) and remove the localstore.rdf file from the Firefox (or SeaMonkey) profile folder (by moving, deleting, or renaming the file). When you restart the application, a new localstore.rdf file will be generated. Your toolbar customizations will be gone but future changes will be retained. Before continuing you may wish to save a screenshot of your current toolbar customizations, to help you restore them later. Note: You can restore the default set of toolbar items by opening the Customize Toolbar dialog and selecting "Restore Default Set" but this does not restore the default content of the localstore.rdf file and is not a solution if the localstore.rdf file is indeed corrupt. Use either of the two methods given below, to regenerate the localstore.rdf file. [edit] Manual method
Caution: Do not delete the localstore.rdf file in the Firefox installation directory defaults/profile folder by mistake (Firefox 3.6 and below). [6] [edit] Safe Mode methodNote: In Firefox 15 and above, Safe Mode has been redesigned to replace the individual troubleshooting options that were included in earlier Firefox versions with the option to Reset Firefox. Resetting Firefox will automatically create a new profile which will include a new copy of the localstore.rdf file; however, using the Reset Firefox feature will also remove all of your other Firefox profile data and settings, except for certain essential data (bookmarks, browsing history, passwords, cookies, and form-fill data) that is migrated to the new profile. The old Firefox profile will be deleted and all of the old Firefox data will be moved to a folder on the desktop. Warning! This change cannot be reversed without manually transferring the old Firefox data back to the new profile. Firefox 15 and above:
Firefox 14 and below and SeaMonkey:

When New York-based Generations Bank launched its first mobile banking app in February, Cedar Falls startup Banno was there to help power it. The app, called mygenmobile, has since grown twice as quickly as projected, according to a Banno press release today.
Banno partnered with Allen, Texas-based software company ProfitStars on the project—a familiar pairing as the two companies collaborated last year on ProfitStars' iPay Solutions platform.
"Generations Bank did it right—giving its customers a mobile app that fulfills their most critical banking needs," said Banno CEO Wade Arnold in the release. "Mobile banking must be more than just another channel, or labeled as a service. It drives today's banking preferences and gives a financial institution the access to play an invaluable role in consumers' everyday purchasing decisions."
Still under the name T8 Webware, Banno in September 2011, unveiled Grip, an application that helps mobile users make financial decisions on the go. Nearly two years later, the white-label product costs financial institutions $1.49 per active user per month, 50 cents higher than when the platform first launched.
