In the past several years, Jazzercise seems to have made a comeback, capitalizing on its name recognition while re-branding for a modern audience. There were the updated workout DVDs, the new partnership with "Dancing with the Stars'" Cheryl Burke, the cheeky homage from Gwyneth Paltrow on "Glee," and even the release of a Jazzercise mobile app for the millennials. On December 30, A&E's competition show "Be the Boss" will devote an entire episode to two Jazzercise instructors competing for a studio.

DescriptionA cabinet card photograph of William G. Morgan, inventor of volleyball. William G. Morgan attended Mount Hermon School in Northfield Massachusetts in 1891. Records at Mount Hermon indicate that Morgan interrupted his course of study by withdrawing from the school in October, 1892 - just four days after meeting Naismith's team on the football field. In 1892-93 Morgan attended Springfield College, or the International YMCA Training School as it was called then, and is pictured with the Training School's football team along with Coach Naismith. Morgan's preparation at the Springfield College allowed him to enter YMCA work and by 1895 William Morgan had returned to Western Massachusetts to work at the Holyoke YMCA. In addition to balancing his new profession in YMCA work he began to look for an innovative game for the local businessmen to play. He thought basketball was too strenuous for them, so he blended elements of basketball, tennis, and handball and called his invention "mintonette'. Morgan borrowed the net from a tennis court and raised it 6 feet 6 inches, a head above the average man's height. A new sport was born - Volleyball. CreatorGeo. C.

3/03 & 3/04 in Yankee History
On the 3rd of March down through the years…
2009: In a one-day anomaly, Derek Jeter appears as a visiting player
at George M. Steinbrenner Field, now renamed from Legends Field. In the lineup for World Baseball Classic Team USA, the Yankee captain singles in two runs off Phil Hughes, has a second hit and scores a run. Taking over first base in the sixth, new Yankee Nick Swisher has a two-run single, but the USA team rides a four-run 6th sixth off young Eric Hacker to a 6-5 victory. Future Yankee Curtis Granderson is hit by a Hughes pitch and scores a run.
1998: Former Yankee GM and American league President Lee MacPhail is elected to the Hall of Fame by the Veterans Committee
1997: For the negotiating rights to Hideki Irabu, the Yankees offer the Padres a choice of one from a list of players: Brian Boehringer, David Weather' Chris Cumberland' Andy Fox and Matt Luke. Also' one player from a list of five minor leaguers' plus $3 million. The Padres are talking to several other teams beside the Yankees.
1946: The Yankees wind up an 11-game swing through the Panama Canal Zone with a 5-4
loss to the Canal Zone All-stars. Al Jarlett' slated for the PCL' goes
the route in handing the Yankees their 3rd loss. The team leaves for
Florida tomorrow.
1927: Babe Ruth becomes the highest paid player in the Major Leagues by signing for a reported $70'000 a year for 3 years.
1926: Wally Pipp informs the Reds that he will not report unless the Yankees give him a portion of the $20'000 sale price.
1872: Hall of Famer and early Yankee star Wee Willie Keeler is born.
…and on the 4th…
2010: Roy Halladay and C.C. Sabathia spin two scoreless innings apiece in Clearwater on in
what is announced as the 64th straight year the Phillies have held
Spring Training in the city on Florida's west coast. The home team push
across a run in the 7th, but current Yankee uber-prospect jesus Montero keys a two-run rally in the 9th inning with a leadoff single, with David Winfree and Jose Gil driving in runs. Unfortunately, however, lefty Wilkins Arias allows two hits sandwiched between a pop out and strike out, then gives up a deciding single for a 3-2 Phillies win.
1962: George Mogridge, the first Yankee pitcher to throw a no-hitter, dies at the age of 73.
1913: The Yankees sail for Bermuda to begin spring training, making them the first Major League team to travel outside the US.
1897: Lefty O'Doul, who spent the first three years of his career with the Yankees as a pitcher, is born.

I'm an interaction designer who has spent my career so far working across the realms of digital and physical products, services and brands.
I've worked within a team that expanded what we expect from the web at one of the first big agencies in the UK, helped to articulate what service design is as an early employee at the very first design firm to focus on it, explored mobile technology at the London design studio of Samsung, introduced design to an engineering led culture at Twitter, worked on & led projects solving a diverse set of problems for all sorts of clients at IDEO & Adaptive Path, led the interaction design team at Method, and most recently helped define new types of connected devices -- along with a new company's voice and everything that goes along with it -- at a startup.
My work has been recognised by the British Academy of Film & Television Arts, the Spark Awards, the Webbys, the Pixel Awards & the Interaction Design Association's Awards.
I've taught and been a thesis advisor for the inaugural class of the MFA Interaction Design program at the School of Visual Arts in New York, and for the past three years have served as part of the founding faculty of the BFA Interaction Design program at the California College of Art, teaching students a module on foundational interaction design.
Things I've written have been published by Fast Company, Core77 and the Association for Computing Machinery's "Interactions" magazine. I've spoken & given workshops at Design Engaged, South by Southwest, Wisdom 2.0, True University & UX Week, among others.
For 2015, I will serve as the chair of the Interaction Design Association's annual Interaction conference in San Francisco.
And I still wish I'd paid more attention in my physics lessons.

Starfish girls split with Bluffton
South Adams split the 12 events with Bluffton's girls in a swim meet Thursday night in Berne, and split the points as well as the two teams finished in a tie, 88-88. South Adams' boys were not as fortunate, winning five events, but losing a 103-75 decision. The South Adams girls are now 6-5-1 and the boys are 2-7.
Kara DeLong and Cory Sank had strong nights for the Starfish.
DeLong won two events and helped one winning relay for the South Adams girls. She claimed the 200-yard freestyle in 2:15.23 and the 100-yard backstroke in 1:05.54. DeLong teamed with Cady Farlow, Ellie Kaverman and Michaela Rupp to win the 200-yard medley relay in 2:03.90. The same quartet w...

Help Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery tell the story of Birmingham since 1945
Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery is asking the public to help in exploring the history of Birmingham.
The first opportunity to do this in person will be at the Museum Collections Centre Open Day on Sunday August 22nd.
We want you to bring along your personal objects, stories and memorabilia which relate to your lives in Birmingham and Birmingham's history from 1945 to the present day.
Tell us about your own experiences of living or working in Birmingham. Perhaps you have an object or story to share about Birmingham sport, music, fashion, shopping, schools, landmarks, hospitals, transport, faith, migration, politics or industry?
Your stories and objects will be documented and museum staff may later ask to borrow your object for the Your Birmingham gallery opening in autumn 2012.
There is also the opportunity to put your personal object online and tell the story about how it relates to your life in Birmingham or Birmingham History since 1945. Simply go to the Your Birmingham Flickr Group and add your images.
Read more about the planned Birmingham History Galleries that will include the Your Birmingham gallery when they open in 2012.

- New Double-Responsive Micelles of Block Copolymers Based on N,N-Diethylacrylamide: Synthesis, Kinetics, Micellization, and Application as Emulsion Stabilizers (2005)
- Thermo- and pH-responsive block copolymers based on (meth)acrylic acid and N,N-diethylacrylamide were synthesized and their aqueous solution behavior was studied. Such bishydrophilic block copolymers represent an interesting class of stimuli-responsive water-soluble materials whose macroscopic properties can be triggered at the molecular level by tuning the temperature, the pH and the ionic strength of the solution. A new method was introduced for the synthesis of well-defined poly(N,N-diethylacrylamide) (PDEAAm) via living anionic polymerization using ethyl alpha-lithioisobutyrate (EiBLi) in the presence of triethylaluminium (Et3Al) as Lewis acid in tetrahydrofuran (THF) at -78 °C. Kinetic investigations were performed using in-situ Fourier-transform Near-Infrared (FT-NIR) fiber-optic spectroscopy. This is the first mechanistic study of the anionic polymerization of a dialkylacrylamide. The polymerization follows first order kinetics with respect to the effective concentration of active chains, [P*]0, but shows complex kinetics with respect to the actual monomer and initial aluminum concentrations. Upon addition of Et3Al, the polymerization rate constant, kp decreases, which is explained by the formation of an amidoenolate chain end/Et3Al complex of lower reactivity. It involves two equilibria: between noncoordinated and Et3Al-coordinated chain ends (deactivation of chain ends) as well as between free and Et3Al-activated monomer (activated monomer mechanism). These two effects are in a delicate balance that depends on the ratio of the concentrations of Et3Al, monomer, and chain ends. Thus, the polymerization rate of this system is governed simultaneously by the complex interplay between the activation of monomer (dependent on monomer and Et3Al concentrations) and the deactivation of chain ends (dependent on the ratio of concentrations of Et3Al to initiator). Polymers with narrow molecular weight distribution are obtained, indicating that the rate of interconversion between the different chain end species is greater than the polymerization rate. In contrast, such well-defined polymers are not found in the absence of Et3Al. PDEAAm polymers, synthesized using organolithium initiator in the presence of Et3Al, are rich in heterotactic (mr) triads and exhibit Lower Critical Solution Temperatures (LCST) in water with a cloud point at Tc = ca. 31 °C. By extending this synthetic concept and using poly(tert-butyl acrylate)-Li, and poly(tert-butyl methacrylate)-Li as macroinitiators, well-defined poly(tert-butyl acrylate)-block-PDEAAm, and poly(tert-butyl methacrylate)-block-PDEAAm block copolymers were obtained. Although the blocking efficiencies remained below 70 % a separation of block and homopolymers was easily possible. The narrowly distributed (AA)45-b-(DEAAm)360 block copolymer obtained after hydrolysis of the protecting tert-butyl groups exhibits interesting 'schizophrenic' micellization behavior in response to temperature, to pH, and to ionic strength of the aqueous media. Due to its asymmetric composition, two opposite micellar structures are expected. Indeed, the existence of different micellar aggregates, i.e., 'crew-cut' micelles with a PDEAAm core and inverse star-like micelles with PAA core, was proven by several analytical techniques, like Small-Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS), Dynamic and Static Light Scattering (DLS, SLS) and Cryo Transmission Electron Microscopy (cryo-TEM). Furthermore, all the transitions were found to be reversible. Finally, the synthesized bishydrophilic block copolymers were used for batch emulsion polymerizations of styrene, methyl methacrylate and n-butyl acrylate. In all cases, latexes with remarkable long-term stabilities were obtained, which is a very interesting feature from the colloidal point of view. The stabilization efficiency was found to be essentially adjustable by the pH due to the loss of the PDEAAm segment inside the latex particle. A detailed analysis of the particle size and particle size distribution was carried out using a variety of methods, including DLS, TEM and Asymmetric Flow Field-Flow Fractionation (AF-FFF).

Great tool
Bought this trowel with heat mat kit. Tile installer was very pleased by how nice of a job it did spreading the thin set over the mat. It is a must when installing tile over a heat mat system.

Sebastian Vettel secured his eighth pole position of this season, and his second in Austin, as he edged Mark Webber in qualifying for the United States GP.
Although Webber appeared to have the advantage after their first runs put the Aussie ahead, Vettel fought back on his final run. Putting in a brilliant final sector, the German claimed pole position with a 1:36.338, 0.103s up on his team-mate.
Romain Grosjean was third for Lotus, however, Nico Hulkenberg in the Lotus who was the star of the session. He finished fourth quickest and ahead of the likes of Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso.
Qualifying 1
The ambient temperature was 27C with the track at 31C at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin. Most important of all, there was a gusting wind which was most noticeable in Sectors 1 and 2.
Valtteri Bottas set the first sub 1:45 lap on hard tyres, as all but Caterham and Marussia circulated on the hard tyres before the expected switch to the faster mediums. Nico Hulkenberg took the fastest time down to 1:43.698.
It was rare treat to see Charles Pic appear on the top of the timesheets with a 1:42.462 on mediums, but it didn't last long as Paul DiResta spoiled the party with a 1:40.966.
Valtteri Bottas re-affirmed his great free practice form by regaining top spot with a 1:39.825, then it was Alonso with a 1:39.658 and Lewis Hamilton undercut that with a 1:39.153, before that man Bottas was round again with a 1:38.773. It almost seemed churlish of Romain Grosjean to displace him with a 1:38.676.
Teams started to switch to the medium tyres with seven minutes to go - but Red Bull and Romain Grosjean stuck with the harder tyre. Lotus's last-minute replacement for Kimi Raikkonen, Heikki Kovalainen, wasn't going to risk it and was safely into Q2 on the medium tyre.
The Red Bulls left it late in the session to come out, but when they did come out on hard tyres Mark Webber took P1 with a 1:38.493 and Sebastian Vettel slotted into P2.
Running into the last four minutes the danger zone looked like: 15.Sutil, 16.Hulkenberg, 17.Vergne, 18.Ricciardo, 19.Van der Garde, 20.Bianchi, 21.Pic, 22.Chilton
Many of the drivers on medium tyres got ahead of the Red Bulls, the first being Lewis Hamilton with a 1:37.959 good enough for P1, then it was Gutierrez and Bottas who eased in front of the Bulls, then Perez. But team-mate Jenson Button did not. They had clearly judged it right.
As the chequered flag fell it was Sutil in P17 and Maldonado in P18, but Sutil ran off track at the first corner with what was possibly a brake problem and couldn't complete the lap - he pulled off later round the circuit. A demotivated Maldonado, just went slower.
Remarkably, while the Venezuelan was crawling around the Austin track his team-mate, Bottas, scorched round to re-set P1 at 1:37.821 - a second and a half quicker than the identical car. P1 and P18 for Williams!
So out went. 17.Sutil, 18.Maldonado, 19.Van der Garde, 20.Bianchi, 21.Pic, 22.Chilton.
The blustery conditions looked like throwing a curve ball at the field - Ferraris had been in P15 and P16. Stewards would investigate an incident where the Sauber of Gutierrez was weaving in front of Maldonado as he tried to finish a lap - it ultimately didn't stop Maldonado's progress, and looked like a real rookie mistake.
Qualifying 2
Jean-Eric Vergne set P1 at 1:38.696, followed by Lewis Hamilton with a 1:38.104 - Bottas slipped into P2, followed by DiResta in P2 and then Sergio Perez (who had a point to prove this weekend) took P2.
Romain Grosjean reduced the P1 time to 1:37.523 as we approached the four minute to go mark.At this stage the dropzone looked like: 7.Alonso, 8.Kovalainen, 9.Button, 10.Vergne, 11.Ricciardo, 12.Rosberg, 13.Massa, 14.Hulkenberg, 15.Vettel (no time), 16.Webber (no time.
Mark Webber duly took P1 with a 1:37.312, before the four times World Champion reduced it to a 1:37.065.
Cars went out for a second time - Ricciardo stayed P9, Gutierrez jumped to P8, Button stayed P12, Kovalainen broke back into the top ten with a P9, then Rosberg failed to improve and Felipe Massa struggled as well.
When the dust settled it was: 11.Ricciardo, 12.DiResta, 13.Button, 14.Rosberg, 15.Massa, 16.Vergne
The biggest shock was Rosberg's failure to perform but he, Button and Massa all had team-mates safely inside the top ten such was the disrupting influence of the wind. It was a case of Viva Mexico with Gutierrez through in P8 and Perez proving a point in P9. Button's three-place grid penalty would move him back further to a P16 start.
Qualifying 3
Sergio Perez was back out on his medium tyres but his provisional pole lap was a 1:38.074, a long way short of Mark Webber's 1:36.699. Interestingly Sebastian Vettel could only make P2 behind the Aussie.
So after the first runs it was: Webber, Vettel, Grosjean, Perez, Kovalainen - the other five drivers didn't go out.
Lewis Hamilton looked to be going slow on his first lap, on what turned out to be a two-lap dash for pole, but Bottas continued his remarkable qualifying with P3. Nico Hulkenberg took P7, Hamilton P8 - but both drivers were about to speed up.
Mark Webber set two purple (fastest) sectors, S1 and S2 on his way to lowering provisional pole to a 1:31.441. That was surely job done...?
Gutierrez went P5, Hulkenberg improved to P3 (despite some unexpected brake materials), Grosjean took P3 off him, Alonso jumped to P5, Hamilton grabbed P5 off him, Perez jumped to P7 and then Sebastian Vettel only needed one purple sector, S3, to claim pole and his 10th consecutive front row start.
It had been a gripping pole battle but with a familiar ending. The 40,000 or so Mexicans arriving tomorrow will be able to cheer Checo on from P7 and Esteban Gutierrez is currently P10 but may find himself going backwards if the stewards rule he drove questionably in Q1.
With the hard tyre holding up well on track it looks like a one-stop race, with only reliability stopping the Red Bull train. But can Nico Hulkenberg hang onto his great qualifying position after some poor Sauber races of late and can Kovalainen help deliver Lotus some Ferrari-beating points?
01 Sebastian Vettel Red Bull 1:36.338
02 Mark Webber Red Bull 1:36.441 +0.103
03 Romain Grosjean Lotus 1:37.155 +0.817

Over three hot days at the beginning of July 1863 the forces of the Union and the Confederacy fought an epic battle in and around a small town in Pennsylvania. When the Battle of Gettysburg was over, the two exhausted sides had inflicted more than 50,000 casualties upon one another. To this day it remains the largest ever battle fought on American soil. The third day of the battle has always been thought of as "the high water mark of the Confederacy", the day when Confederate General Robert E. Lee lost the decisive battle of the American Civil War. But scientific battlefield evidence is mounting that by the time the artillery began firing that day, the Confederate fight was already doomed. And when Pickett's Charge - the famous full frontal attack against the Union lines - got under way, the Battle of Gettysburg had effectively already been lost.

Kenneth Lumpkin Victim Of Discriminatory Sentencing Disparity Between Crack And Powder Cocaine
ACLU Files Commutation Petition On Behalf Of Man Serving Unjust Prison Sentence For Non-Violent Crime
NEW YORK The American Civil Liberties Union and the Los Angeles-based law
firm Caldwell Leslie and Proctor, PC today asked President Obama to commute
the remaining sentence of Kenneth J. Lumpkin, a father of four serving the 15th
year of an unjust 20-year prison sentence for a non-violent offense. Along with
a commutation petition, the ACLU today filed with the U.S. Department of Justice's
Office of the Pardon Attorney over 30 letters in support of commutation for
Lumpkin, including several from staff members at the Taft Correctional Institution
in California, the minimum security facility where Lumpkin is currently incarcerated.
"I accept full responsibility for what I did, and it is not an exaggeration to say I regret it every day," Lumpkin said. "But my hope is that you see clearly the man I have become and that I have made a lifetime commitment to change. My 20-year prison sentence is clearly excessive, and if you find it in your heart to commute my sentence there would be no words to express my deepest gratitude."
Lumpkin was convicted in 1996 of a non-violent drug-related offense for playing a minor role in a conspiracy to sell and distribute crack cocaine. Lumpkin's 20-year sentence was mandated by law under unfair and discriminatory U.S. sentencing guidelines that, at the time of his sentencing, punished crack cocaine related offenses 100 times more severely than offenses related to powder cocaine. At the time of his sentencing, the judge in Lumpkin's case lamented what he called the "very, very harsh" nature of the sentence called for by law, saying that his "hands [we]re tied." And after presiding over a recent motion to have Lumpkin's sentence reduced, U.S. District Court Judge David O. Carter praised Lumpkin for his efforts to rehabilitate himself before reluctantly concluding that "the law as it stands does not allow for this Court to reduce Lumpkin's sentence."
Lumpkin is one of thousands of people in this country, a disproportionate number of whom are people of color, who have been given extremely long sentences under the sentencing disparity between crack and powder cocaine. The Fair Sentencing Act passed by Congress last year reduced the disparity from 100-to-1 to 18-to-1 but did not fully eliminate it.
Had Lumpkin's offense involved powder instead of crack cocaine the same quantity of the same drug in a different form his mandatory minimum sentence would have been 10 years instead of 20, he would have already served his entire sentence, he would have been there to watch his children graduate from high school and the birth of his first grandchild and he would have been able to help care for his mother, who is recuperating from a stroke she suffered several years ago.
"The case of Kenny Lumpkin exemplifies why it is so urgent that our country re-think mandatory minimum sentences and a one-size-fits-all approach to sentencing," said Scott Michelman, staff attorney with the ACLU Criminal Law Reform Project. "The Fair Sentencing Act was a step in the right direction, but individuals like Kenny have fallen through the cracks, and it is essential that the president use his commutation power to right these historical, but still ongoing, wrongs."
Lumpkin is the latest person to seek commutation as part of a larger project designed by the ACLU called "Dear Mr. President, Yes You Can," which brings together civil rights advocates, legal scholars, law school clinics, pro bono counsel and others to urge President Obama to use his pardon and commutation power in a principled way, consistent with his administration's position that the crack sentencing guidelines have been far too harsh. The project also aims to promote the president's clemency power as a means to correct historical injustices. Last year, the ACLU filed a commutation petition with President Obama on behalf of Hamedah Hasan, a mother and grandmother now serving the 18th year of an unjust 27-year prison sentence for a first time, non-violent crack cocaine conspiracy offense. That petition is still pending after nearly a full year.
Though Lumpkin's excessive punishment as a result of the crack-powder sentencing disparity is not unique, his conduct while incarcerated has demonstrated a level of rehabilitation that officials at his correctional institution consider extraordinary. After being transferred several years ago from a medium security prison to a fenceless minimum security camp several years ago, Lumpkin has taken virtually all of the college courses available to him, teaches two art classes a week to fellow prisoners and leads them in a community mural painting project, is active in his Native American religious group, and is executive chairman of a group called Those Outspoken Against Drugs (TOAD), a select group of prisoners who speak to teenagers at local schools and juvenile halls about taking responsibility for one's own actions, making good choices and the dangers of drugs.
Lumpkin's conduct at the camp has earned the respect and sincere admiration of not only fellow inmates both long-timers and those recently incarcerated but also of members of the prison staff, including the Associate Warden, who have all written to declare their support for Mr. Lumpkin's early release.
"Only the president can do what is right for Kenny, his family and friends, all the other prisoners who look up to Kenny as a role model for their own rehabilitation and the correctional officers who point to Kenny as a model prisoner," said Michael V. Schafler of Caldwell Leslie & Proctor, PC. "Granting Kenny's commutation will signal to everyone who has watched Kenny work tirelessly to better himself, including his fellow prisoners, the children in his neighborhood and church, and those with whom he has worked through the TOAD program, that it is never too late to change."
Additional information about the ACLU's work on behalf of Lumpkin and Hasan, including a newly released video documenting Hasan's story, is available online at: www.dearmrpresidentyesyoucan.org <http://www.dearmrpresidentyesyoucan.org>

What many Americans consider "common sense" efforts to curb gun violence and ownership of military-style assault rifles and high-capacity magazines is met by much criticism and the claim that it is merely the first step toward confiscation.
The rhetoric sometimes seems to border on hysteria, and the "facts" and "quotes" mere fabrications to bolster an argument. There really should be a rule that if you are going to disseminate information be it a quote, a picture or a fact it should be accompanied by sufficient citation allowing the average reader to verify its veracity. Otherwise people on both sides of the argument are descending into the bowels of a propaganda campaign they claim to be sworn to oppose.
It is doubted that anyone or any side will claim that our current system is functioning. There are claims that hammers kill more than firearms, that the problem is medications do not control behaviors, etc., but there is little acknowledgment that the system is broken. We have had limits on the sale of military assault rifles previously without progressing to confiscation and we can again. Yes, the Supreme Court ruled that the right to bear arms is just that, a right, but please read the entire opinion as it also ruled that restrictions were not without merit.
There is overwhelming support for bans on assault rifles, high-capacity magazines and universal background checks. The vast majority of gun owners are responsible. However, there are too many who are "straw buyers" for non-qualified purchasers; there are too many unlicensed dealers who sell literally hundreds of guns per year without any knowledge of the buyer. There are too many private and gun show sales to whomever appear with cash in hand. It has become true that some "legal" gun owners have indeed become outlaws. Again, it has become a situation where the actions of a minority impact the majority.
Those who fear confiscation may be the very ones who create it as a self-fulfilling prophecy. This is the scenario we may see unfold. As some gun owners become increasingly incensed at the self- induced fear of confiscation they shall become increasingly more blatant in their demonstration of open carry laws. They will voluntarily become armed patrols at our schools and neighborhoods. They will become more aggressive in their use of weapons for self-protection and push the boundaries of make-my-day and stand-your-ground laws. In short order many will become more fearful of them than the danger they claim to defend against.
The American public will become more vocal in their desire for some form of gun control and shall organize into a force eclipsing the NRA. Congress will finally take some action which, at a minimum, will bar future sales of assault rifles, high-capacity clips and expand background checks. Some gun owners will escalate their displays of arms at greater detriment to their cause. The American public will become increasingly concerned and continue to demand action.
These same gun owners will pursue legal action proverbially "all the way to the Supreme Court." The court shall rule that the Second Amendment does not provide a blanket right to all forms of firearms and shall explicitly, at a minimum, rule against gun ownership of these assault rifles. Ownership at that point will become illegal and those guns subject to confiscation. This will be a reluctant conclusion resulting from the demands not of gun control advocates, but from the action of gun owners.
We are at a crossroads. We need to find a path toward mutual understandings and agreements on how to curb gun violence. Just as the right to free speech does not allow one to yell fire in a crowded theater, the right to bear arms does not need require that we fortify our schools, malls and cities to protect us against those who do not bear arms responsibly. One right does not have supremacy over other rights. If it is true that more guns mean a safer America than all those armed guards should already be unnecessary.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|mustang 671
I am getting on with my engine. seem to be going around in circles on here. I cant change my bottom pulley. so I have to change my top each time I want a boost change. am thinking of ordered up a 47 and 43 top pulley but waiting for the blower shop to get back to me on expected boost based on what I have told them with my engine figures and current blower sizes.
prob go back to dyno over xmas. I like the dyno for testing out. more safer and controlled rather than hoping and screaming down a track. I will do that when its set up.
Believe me 671 I can relate on not having a local track They closed each and every track within a 100+ miles of my house and sometimes for me it's a 2 day routine to simply go make a few passes, it's a real pita...
Here's my passes from Sat, make no mistake these 351w can kick some *** when they're making power
The simple fact that you are missing the obvious as afars as waht new pulleys to order
shows that you don't the tuning experience and need to creep up on boost and power
a bit at a time.
its is simple: Order anew 51 tooth crank pulley and a new 45 tooth blower pulley.
Now with alll the pulleys you will be able to achieve 11% under drive AND 1 to 1 ratio and 11% over drive
on the blower.
Now you have 3 different progressive boost levels to tune with.
With out KNOWN verified standardized accurate dyno calibration set up and test operating condition parameters
and known test correction factors (weather etc) and the dyno correction factors used?
Those numbers are just numbers that cannot be compared to any other dyno test or someone elses car.
What was the AFR's, jetting and timing and power curves and boost curves from each dyno test
temp, humidity, AIT's etc etc..
garbage in garbage out. The numbes from the current 7psi tests are low even for that dyno.
Do not assume the engine is correct. Do not progress ( add boost) until the engine is correct @ 7psi.
they are only cast pistons.
The higher the boost the more critical the tune up.
Changing the pulleys will not make the track any closer to you.
It will still be 3 hours away.
Pulleys are simple .. swap the top and bottom pulleys.
if all you want is a dyno test number for bragging rights (I have X amount of horsepower) then just get the dyno operators to
change the dyno test parameters to get you a dyno slip that you like.
|mustang 671
No point . As the 1/4 mile track is 3. Hrs from me . Dyno wouldn't be that far out -ie 150 bhp more is still only. 480 bhp . Which is where I wanted to start from . 550--600 bhp is more than do able with what ive built . Eveerything is new . All readings at dyno where good . Have plenty more to go . Need more boost . Some. Standard 350s are making this power,
Need help on pulleys if you can ,
Point taken though and I will go to the track . Once im seeing more power
Why don't you run it down the drag strip as is so that then the current power reading from the dyno has some real meaning and relative actual car/engine performance reference based on the track 1/4 mile MPH and car weight.?
Any high boost power testing should be done on high octane gasoline , first.
The creep up on the "pump gas" tune up (timing) while carefully watching for knock.
Detonation must be avoided.
Right now all you have is a chassis dyno generated power number that can only be referenced + or - relevant to another dyno test
on that same dyno.
A day at the local track drag testing it at its current 7psi tune up will give that number from the dyno some real performance meaning. And give you some seat time, to learn to use the engine power in a safe manor.
And allow you to verify the engines real world performance and reliability.
make it go fast down the track @ 7psi. and
(Sort out the new car bugs, etc). Now is the time to find and sort out the little stuff, not when it is wound up tight at 12+PSI boost-tuneup.
Then take it back to the dyno and creep up on a high boost tune (pulley swap)
|mustang 671
|Yes they are opening fully . Pri jets 72 second jets 78 did change secoundaries to 82 but no power increase just highest air fuel mix .ign mapped by dyno guys for peak bhp . Gave it what it wanted . Needs more boost . Any ideas on pulleys ? Fuel prressure maintained .
Carb pri and sec jetting? timing?
|mustang 671
|mustang 671
have just posted below my auto c6 spec. its all new and good quality stuff.
tyres are brand new. they sprayed some goo onto the rollers for it to grip.
the exhaust I also mentioned. but agree if it had a stainless all the way through im sure it would flow better. but it is big bore . and I have nice long headers. large bore aswell.

hi all and those just following . I really could do with some input on the following. and I know it may be a wet finger in the air and hope ????
so currently I have a 45 tooth bottom and 51 tooth top pulley. I got 7psi at 6000rpm but had so much more to go and only produced 330bhp.
have spoken with the dyno guys again today and also a supplier over your neck of the woods who can supply me with a 42 tooth cog for $115 + delivery which isn't bad. my questions is , can anyone hazard a good guess- work out? how much boost that would get me to ? so 45 bottom and 42 top
my engine started at 7.48to1 comp ratio but since then I have changed from a felpro normal head gasket to a felpro mls one. nothing else has been changed apart from it being homed out just slightly and a bit of piston to bore wear but prob nothing to be honest as the engine hasn't had much use. the orginal block is 30 thou over and I have kb hyper pistons - but I do now have a new crane custom grind cam which I posted about earlier which is a roller cam.
I have large headers which collect and go into 3" exhausts . under and out the back. the car was for racing before I imported it so it has a large dual exhaust.
I have a c6 with a high stall b+m torque converter. Been uprated with reverse manual shift pattern body.
my thoughts are that the combi would give around 10-12 psi ? which would be a lot better , I will have the water inj running with this higher boost. I can easily get hold of 99 octane fuel to use. only 5p a litre more . but still bloody £6.58 a gallon
help !!!!!!!
|mustang 671
thanks for the comment. I can get a different size belt so haven't got any issues with the tensioning luckily. that's interesting you mention it could be a smaller case blower. will look into that. ta
also I looked at my blower before I brought it years ago and also more recently when I o-ringed out the inlet manifold. the rotors are good. no scores. no leaks from the blower either.
|mustang 671
hi pro street rob
the sierra sounds nice on the rd. and congrats on those times. must be hard when its raining. here in the uk the weather has turned so don't expect I will be getting out much for a few months, prob not a bad thing. try and get some nice cold dry days and put some miles o it before the summer heat comes. less chance of it getting too hot. your pulley sizes are interesting. seems the charts aren't any use and just a very very rough guide.
Somewhere above you were talking about the boost not being what the charts showed. It's possible you have a small case 6-71. Not a problem but you just have to spin it faster. Hopefully your blower is not messed up. I've run into at least 6 this year with too little clearance on the rear of the rotors resulting in a galled case and rotors.
Since you can't change the bottom pulley the only choice is the top one. You may have to make a spacer under the blower. 1/8, 3/16 and 1/4 in are common SAE sizes. Adjust for metric material if you need to. The reason for the spacers is that you you may run out of room for adjustment on the idler.
Deep Staged by mistake on the first pass and ran a 10.92, then ran a 10.81 and the best ET of the day was 10.70 (it went 10.66 & 10.61 at Atco earlier this year) Atco is a much better track and closer to sea level where Island is up in the mountains at higher elevation so I guess I cant complain since we took it home in one piece
As for the Street Beast, my Sierra makes crazy power so I dont need much boost. I'm running a 56 T Upper Pulley + 52T Lower Pulley ='s 8 lbs of Boost @ 6,000 RPM (-5.5 Underdriven). At that set up the compression correction works out to 13.1 Compression. If I switch the pulleys around it's 12 lbs of Boost @ 6,000 RPM (+5.8 Overdriven) With that set up the compression correction works out to be 15.1
Mine sounds totally different than yours, I made this a few days ago on my phone. Just a little put put around town...
A few pics from the track today

Two Years After Operation Airlift Japan: An Update on the Orphans You Supportedon March 18, 2013 @ 5:14 pm (Updated: 6:36 pm - 3/18/13 )
We put the call out for donations and you gave. We collected over 40 tons of toys, food, clothing, blankets and supplies for the Bikou-En Orphanage, and several months later, Ron and I went to Japan to meet the kids.
Two years later, we wanted to see how those kids are doing, and give you a report, since you donated so many things to them. I called Gemini, who is still living on the Misawa Naval Air Base.
"I go to the orphanage at least once a month," she said.
She still sees your donations everywhere.
"When it's cold we see the jackets, when it's hot we see the T-shirts. We see the jeans, we see the toys, we see the pretty things in the little girls' hair. I think they'll still be used for many years."
Many of those donations went to other orphanages in the region, and to families in harder hit areas who desperately needed those supplies.
"For instance, we went down to Miyagi not too long ago. We saw a bunch of Seattle shirts that, I know for a fact, because I unpacked those, came from the Ron & Don Nation."
Gemini says the same little boys who were excited to get brand new baseballs and bats and the same little girls who were dressed in donated Disney princess costumes are still living at Bikou-En.
"It is harder to get them adopted. Not only that, but it's harder to support that orphanage because they don't get any kind of state or government funding. So if you have a large flock of your population who is trying to rebuild their own lives, unfortunately the last thing they're thinking about is helping to support these orphanages."
She says a lot of people in the hard hit areas, where their towns were completely destroyed, are still living in the one-year shelter kits given to them right after the disaster.
"It looks like a tent. They're not necessarily the best for the cold weather and I know in Misawa, where we are, we had 187 inches of snow so far this year. That's when we start to get a little bit worried and we really try to amp up our humanitarian efforts because it gets cold and those shelters aren't necessarily made to withstand super cold weather."
Gemini says debris from her town has made its way to the Pacific Northwest.
"Misawa Pier, that was destroyed, actually it just washed up somewhere in Portland, believe it or not. So it's still making it's way across the world. There will still be effects for a long time to come."
Monday morning, on the Luke Burbank show, he interviewed oceanographer Dr Curtis Ebbesmeyer, who has been collecting things that have washed up locally, and made huge efforts to return the items to their owners in Japan.
"If it has writing on it, I have some really good translators. If you can get a name, I contact Kyoto News down in Los Angeles, who are just like bloodhounds. They can find people. I was on hand for a basketball that washed up in Prince of Wales Island in southeast Alaska. It had the name of the high school. I took a picture and sent it down to Kyoto News, got it translated, and before you knew it the Kesennuma middle school, who had lost the basketball, were just elated. It energized that community so much to know their basketball was coming back."
Kesennuma is in the Miyagi prefecture, the area some of your donations went to.
If you would like to send a gift or donations to the kids at the Bikou-En Orphanage, please contact Gemini Sanford at firstname.lastname@example.com
If you find any Japanese items, that have washed up locally, and want to get them back to their owner, you can contact Dr Ebbesmeyer here: http://beachcombersalert.blogspot.com/

Keller leads Jets by Heritage
Alyssa Keller held Heritage to three hits, striking out eight and walking four, and led Adams Central to a 3-2 victory at Heritage Thursday in varsity softball. The win moves the Jets to 8-5 overall and 2-3 in the ACAC. Heritage remains winless in conference play.
"With (Sydnee) Peterson out for a while with an injury Alyssa has really stepped up on the mound,†said Central coach Cary Blake. "She gets stronger with every outing.â€
Central got a pair of singles to lead off the first inning from Keller and Bess Fiechter. Keller then scored on a fielder's choice by Sammie Baker and Fiechter scored on an RBI single by Mariah McMillen.

Catlike Tako Helmet $79.95
A cat for the commute.
To most Americans, Catlike might only conjure up images of the professional peloton. However, Europeans have long known that Catlike also produces helmets, like the mountain-focused Tako Helmet, that extend well beyond its road racing roots. The Tako is a slightly modified version of the venerable Whisper Plus helmet, and it combines an attractive design with features that make it better suited for the dirt over the tarmac.
Not surprisingly, Catlike managed to do this without compromising anything in terms of safety. Instead, the Tako benefits from the same Crash Energy Splitter (CES) technology that's found in the Whisper Plus. Essentially, this design incorporates multiple 'ribs' that run across the helmet. These ribs diffuse crash energy between the helmet's vents, thoroughly reducing the force of impact on the skull.
For comfort, the Tako features 23 air intakes, with the front vents incorporating an insect screen that prevents unwanted, and stinging, hitchhikers. Additionally, Catlike has included a wheel retention system at the rear of the helmet that allows for a nearly infinite level of retention adjustment. Even better, it's simple to operate with one hand when you're on the go. Lastly, the Tako also includes a removable visor that makes adjusting to your environment a simplified affair.
The Catlike Tako Helmet is available in the sizes Medium and Large and in the colors Matte Black, Matte Blue, and Matte White.

Incredible value
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I'm not understanding why this helmet is at this price point, it's light (my L is 303g), it has good coverage, good venting in hot humid conditions, is extremely comfortable, I really can find no fault. I use it as my primary MTB helmet despite its "commuter" branding. I have other helmets that cost 50% more that have poorer coverage and venting and are heavier. This helmet really is a steal.
The only thing close to a complaint would be the visor is a little shorter than I would like, but it still keeps sun and water out of my face and stays out of my vision so I suppose it works fine.
Lexi Dowdall
Nice review, Scott!
How is the fit on this thing?
Scott Pendleton
My noggin' measures in at 59.5 cm and the L helmet sits comfortable over top of a Buff headband with plenty of adjustability either direction. I have a more of an elongated oval-head and I think this may be for more round shapes, as it cinches up front and back before the sides, but it stays put without having to crank it down uncomfortable tight.
Also, the back ratchet goes low enough for me to fit my ponytail above it but below the helmet body, which is a plus. I'd rate the helmet as ponytail-friendly.
Good Helmet
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
This is a great helmet for the price point. It is comfortable and vents well. I got a medium and it is comparable to a Giro size Medium. The guts of the helmet seem minimal, but I haven't yet decided if it's a good or a bad thing yet. I only give it 4 stars because I'm used to a sleek Giro Atmos and this one looks a little funny on my head.

Very pretty with minor flaws I have this necklace in gold, and it's a very pretty, sparkly necklace. It dresses up the plan white shirt very nicely for the office, and looks adorable with a little black dress. There are a few places on some of the chains where the links are kinked, but it is not noticeable if the necklace is not a few inches away, so I am probably the only one who knows they're there. Overall, it's a cute way to add some dressy sparkle to an otherwise lackluster outfit. September 16, 2014
Decent Item I bought this item in hopes of adding a classy piece of jewelry to my collection. I loved the necklace when I received it. Very classy and it goes with almost anything. I wore it out during a warm day, and noticed that the gold color had turned black around the neck area, where the necklace had made contact with my sweat. I was very disappointed. As such, I would only recommend this necklace for office use. April 27, 2014
My Favorite I drooled over this necklace for months before receiving it as a gift. It quickly became my favorite necklace as it goes with just about any nice outfit. It is substantial enough to make a statement without begging for attention. I've gotten compliments every time I've worn it. April 6, 2014
Luxe necklace I wanted a simple but elegant statement making necklace to add to my wardrobe. I don't have much gold so I've been trying to incorporate more of that. When I saw this in store, I knew it was exactly what I was looking for. The chains are delicate but since there's obviously a lot of them, it makes a bold statement without being too garish. Beautiful in person, definitely recommend. March 14, 2014
Great piece I like this necklace a lot. No issue with tangling or kinking. It's attractive and goes with many outfits. I have it in silver. February 20, 2014
Doesn't lie flat I wanted to love this- I really did! I needed a gold necklace and this was exactly what I was looking for. The length was perfect, but even before trying it on, I held it up and it had small kinks in MANY spots. The strands didn't lie flat and it really bothered me. I definitely don't want to be unkinking it each time I wear it. Unfortunately, I will be returning it. December 17, 2013
I heart this necklace The first time I saw this necklace I knew I had to get it but 40 bucks was a bit much for costume jewelry. When it went on sale, I bought it and received so many compliments. My 18 month old got to it some how and destroyed it. I loved it so much, when it went on sale again I bought it again. This is the perfect piece and adds so much style to a plain top. December 17, 2013
Chic This necklace is very chic, you can dress it up or down. Love the length and gives it a very stylish look to your outfit; I own both silver and gold. November 23, 2013
