Description:Global data communication permits cyclic data communication between SIMATIC S7 CPUs via the MPI interface. Data communication is cyclic during updating of the process output and input images.
In addition to cyclic data transfer, it is also possible to have event-controlled data transfer in the S7-400 CPU via prepared function blocks. For this, function blocks are called in the S7 program for sending and receiving the data.
The data to be transferred is defined statically in the program and can be transferred consistently in different global data rings, i.e. defined groups of nodes that exchange global data with each other. The data can only be transferred to modules that have been parameterized in the same STEP 7 project and that use either the same communications bus (K bus) on the backplane bus or the MPI bus.
Global data communication and MPI are located as follows in the ISO-OSI reference model. Fig. 01: ISO-OSI reference model
Global data communication services:
Properties of the services:The volume of the data to be transferred is low with a maximum of 22 bytes (S7-300 CPU) and 54 bytes (S7-400 CPU).
Advantages of global data communication:
Disadvantages of global data communication:

This is a late 20th century hexagon patchwork cot quilt made mainly of Laura Ashley fabrics.
This is a multi-coloured hexagon patchwork quilt with a central medallion. It was made for Lady Aberdare of Blaenau, near Ammanford, by Letitia Davies who lived in the Llandeilo area, in about 1880.
This is a patchwork fragment of hexagons pieced over paper – probably the centre from a larger quilt. Some of the fabrics date from the 1830s, 40s and 50s.
This wool hexagons coverlet is dated 1882 in the central hexagon, with the name "Jones" also stitched in. It was probably made in Wales, and was donated to The Quilt Association.
This is an unfinished hexagon top with papers which has an interesting selection of fabrics dating from the mid 1800s to 1880s.
This is an unfinished hexagons patchwork made in the Llanarth area of West Wales, probably in the second quarter of the 19th century.
This is a hexagon shaped cushion featuring rosettes and flower garden hexagon patchwork.

Common English Bible (CEB) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 From James, a slave of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ. To the twelve tribes who are scattered outside the land of Israel. Greetings! | 1 James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, To the twelve tribes scattered among the nations: Greetings. |
2 My brothers and sisters, think of the various tests you encounter as occasions for joy. | 2 Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, |
3 After all, you know that the testing of your faith produces endurance. | 3 because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. |
4 Let this endurance complete its work so that you may be fully mature, complete, and lacking in nothing. | 4 Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. |
5 But anyone who needs wisdom should ask God, whose very nature is to give to everyone without a second thought, without keeping score. Wisdom will certainly be given to those who ask. | 5 If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. |
6 Whoever asks shouldn't hesitate. They should ask in faith, without doubting. Whoever doubts is like the surf of the sea, tossed and turned by the wind. | 6 But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. |
7 People like that should never imagine that they will receive anything from the Lord. | 7 That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord; |
8 They are double-minded, unstable in all their ways. | 8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all he does. |
9 Brothers and sisters who are poor should find satisfaction in their high status. | 9 The brother in humble circumstances ought to take pride in his high position. |
10 Those who are wealthy should find satisfaction in their low status, because they will die off like wildflowers. | 10 But the one who is rich should take pride in his low position, because he will pass away like a wild flower. |
11 The sun rises with its scorching heat and dries up the grass so that its flowers fall and its beauty is lost. Just like that, in the midst of their daily lives, the wealthy will waste away. | 11 For the sun rises with scorching heat and withers the plant; its blossom falls and its beauty is destroyed. In the same way, the rich man will fade away even while he goes about his business. |
12 Those who stand firm during testing are blessed. They are tried and true. They will receive the life God has promised to those who love him as their reward. | 12 Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him. |
13 No one who is tested should say, "God is tempting me!" This is because God is not tempted by any form of evil, nor does he tempt anyone. | 13 When tempted, no one should say, "God is tempting me." For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; |
14 Everyone is tempted by their own cravings; they are lured away and enticed by them. | 14 but each one is tempted when, by his own evil desire, he is dragged away and enticed. |
15 Once those cravings conceive, they give birth to sin; and when sin grows up, it gives birth to death. | 15 Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death. |
16 Don't be misled, my dear brothers and sisters. | 16 Don't be deceived, my dear brothers. |
17 Every good gift, every perfect gift, comes from above. These gifts come down from the Father, the creator of the heavenly lights, in whose character there is no change at all. | 17 Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. |
18 He chose to give us birth by his true word, and here is the result: we are like the first crop from the harvest of everything he created. | 18 He chose to give us birth through the word of truth, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of all he created. |
19 Know this, my dear brothers and sisters: everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to grow angry. | 19 My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, |
20 This is because an angry person doesn't produce God's righteousness. | 20 for man's anger does not bring about the righteous life that God desires. |
21 Therefore, with humility, set aside all moral filth and the growth of wickedness, and welcome the word planted deep inside you—the very word that is able to save you. | 21 Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you. |
22 You must be doers of the word and not only hearers who mislead themselves. | 22 Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. |
23 Those who hear but don't do the word are like those who look at their faces in a mirror. | 23 Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror |
24 They look at themselves, walk away, and immediately forget what they were like. | 24 and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. |
25 But there are those who study the perfect law, the law of freedom, and continue to do it. They don't listen and then forget, but they put it into practice in their lives. They will be blessed in whatever they do. | 25 But the man who looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues to do this, not forgetting what he has heard, but doing it--he will be blessed in what he does. |
26 If those who claim devotion to God don't control what they say, they mislead themselves. Their devotion is worthless. | 26 If anyone considers himself religious and yet does not keep a tight rein on his tongue, he deceives himself and his religion is worthless. |
27 True devotion, the kind that is pure and faultless before God the Father, is this: to care for orphans and widows in their difficulties and to keep the world from contaminating us. | 27 Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world. |

California's gaping budget gap

A view of the California State Capitol in Sacramento, California
Sacramento is facing a projected $21-billion deficit, according to a report released today by the chief budget analyst. California lawmakers, who barely managed to patch together a budget a few months ago, seem to be at a loss in terms of solutions. But stakeholders are already preparing for battle. Is it possible to cut any closer to the financial bone?

I thought I'd love this product based on the rave reviews here and on the hair board, but no dice. I'm currently growing out bleach damaged hair so it's mostly that but I also have some virgin regrowth. It seemed to work well on the virgin hair but not the bleached hair. Fyi the bleach damaged parts are dry and dull, but not super damaged where they're breaking off, and aren't completely shineless. Anyways, this made my hair so dry and dull! It was frizzy, and not soft, and also a little coated feeling. I expect much more from a $60 shampoo!! Even Pantene works better, and it's a tenth of the price. It does smell really good though. I lost my receipt so I can't return it, but I'll try it again when I have all virgin hair, as it seems to work a lot better on that. What a waste of money though, I like my joico, loreal proffesionel, and pantene so much better.

Hands down the best shampoo in the world :0
I started using this when I worked for the Canadian distributor (before it was purchased by L'Oreal) and obviously got a ridiculous discount on the price. Then when I left that job, I tried every single other shampoo and conditioner and slowly my hair turned back to it's frizzy, dry, unmanageable, unruly self. I finally broke down and bought it. I'm a die-hard Pureology lover so my reviews will show that. But nothing compares to this shampoo. It lathers beautifully, smells amazing, and makes my hair feel and look better than anything else so I will continue to buy even if the price is a bit sickening.

I blame my old hairstylist for turning me on to this. I thought a shampoo is a shampoo..what diff can it possibly make? Boy was I wrong. I wanted to hate this when I first tried it due to its stupid high price tag. But I looove it. Love. Its rich, creamy, smells like Princess by Vera Wang and it only takes a little bit to get great lather (if u soak ur hair..just be sure its properly wet) my hair is damaged and I'm trying to grow it longer (right now its about an inch past BSL) and this makes it shiny, bouncy, happy and manageable. I was swayed temporarily by costco's dupe of this, their kirkland brand...no. absolutely no comparison, I will never stray. Pricey? God yes. Oh well though. I spend a ton on color too...so I might as well preserve it :)

I have used the NANO products since they hit Canada, very hard to find the NANO products because of the price.
Could not live with out them,
In May they showed up in my Stylists salon in new packaging, I sniffed, hmm not the same , used it, NOT THE SAME!! THe bottle
lasts half as long as the Original and my hair turns out half as good as the product in the long neck packaging. I was so mad, and not a word of REFORMULATED on the bottle, The bottles still crack and break if not cared for.
Really disappointed
Have been trying other stuff since, Wen and others.
But usually have to use it even though my hair is not the same.
I saved a bit of the old formula and if I use it for the last sluishing on my hair, its almost as good as the original.
My email to L :oreal (bought pureology) went un asnswered .

"LucyEm" called the price of this obscene and she was right, but for me it was either this or an expensive wig! You see, I'd colored dark, then highlighted, then colored dark over that, then highlighted (huge chunky highlights) then colored dark over that again (I'm neurotic)....all in the span of a year. I'm 43 and I blow dry and hot curl every single day (except in the extreme hot weather). My hair is in terrible shape and I was filling the brush with broken hair every day. I heard about this shampoo and gave it a try (even Kerastase Bain Satin wasn't working for me any longer). My hair now feels AMAZING and is shiny and "young" again!! I bought the conditioner, too, but I like the shampoo much more. Anyway, when you are in a desperate situation this is the shampoo for you....it may be a fortune to buy it, but the alternatives (cutting off all my hair, etc.) are out of the question. I'd rather not eat and have this shampoo. By the way, I got my first bottle for 50 bucks at Nordstrom Rack and just got my second bottle on Amazon for a similar discount. It lasts a long time and is very concentrated. Anyway, if you are thinking about it....just do it. It will literally save your hair, and if you are getting on in years like I am, it will give you back the hair you had at 16. Miracles are worth paying for!!!

This is amazing. My hair was so damaged I was ready to cut it all off. I've box-dyed and henna'd (kiss of death for my hair) it so many times this year. It was so fried and falling out in clumps. I purchased this as a last-ditch desperate attempt to save my hair. I also had a raging dandruff/sebhorric dermatitis issue. 3 weeks of using this every 3 days and my hair is shiny and has "life" in it according to DH. My scalp issues are gone. It smells great and feels like heaven on my head. If your hair is damaged, brittle, lifeless and dry you must try this shampoo. Yes it's 70 CAD a bottle but it saved me from a buzz cut.

The price is obscene. Seriously just too much.
That being said I used the shampoo and conditioner once and was hooked. I had been very ill, had some bad coloring incidents, and my hair even a year later was still dry and frizzy. I used it once and my hair was the softest it has felt in years. The frizz, even on a humid rainy day was manageable and not it's normal horrible self. For now I will suck it up and buy it again.
I do love the smell and usually I do not like most shampoo smells. Not too perfumey and not too chemical. Kind of on the sweet side.
Because of the price I will still experiment with other brands. Maybe even try a different shampoo with just the nanoworks conditioner and see how it goes.

This shampoo is really concentrated so all you really need is a dime sized amount, emulsify it like crazy in your hands, then apply to really wet hair. It has very creamy suds and smells quite nice! It's expensive but this is definitely an indulgence in the shower. Luckily I don't have to pay retail since I get it at a professional supplier. It is a great moisturizing shampoo for those with dry, brittle hair. It may not be ideal for those with thin and fine hair tho as it might weigh it down.

My hair is originally a dark brown but for the last year I have gone to a platinum/almost white blonde. My hair had ALOT of breakage. Than after a traumatic salon experience (the stylist left the bleach on my hair for over an hour...left my hair coming out in clumps and with sores on my scalp) I started using this. I work at a well known hair care retailer and I have tried EVERYTHING! Redken (which sucks), joico, biolage (most overhyped product on the planet), CHI, biosilk, Enjoy, and every other Purology product. This turned my hair from a fragile mess ball into soft healthy hair. I still bleach but my hair is actually able to grow now instead of breaking off. its also made the texture and body of my hair so much better. I dont even blow dry anymore, which used to result in dull lifeless/volumless hair. Granted, I do get a great discount on this stuff so the price isnt as steep for me but if you have the money its totally worth it!

Only on SkinInc.com: Beautiful Skin During and After Pregnancy
Posted: February 8, 2012
page 3 of 4
If your client has acne scarring, Fraxel re:pair laser treatments can erase the appearance of it and treatment may be done after pregnancy.
According to Saad, the standard treatment for acne is benzoyl peroxide and oral antibiotics. For acne scarring, treatment with a resurfacing laser such as the Fraxel laser is ideal.
Abdominal sagging
Thermage treatments can help firm and tighten the loose abdomen after childbirth. Thermage treatments utilize radio- frequency technology to tighten and contour the skin. It is a noninvasive procedure that works to smooth wrinkled, sagging skin on the abdomen, and may also be used on the upper arms and thighs. Results may be seen after one treatment and there is no recovery time. One treatment takes approximately 90 minutes.
Spider veins
Facial spider veins (also referred to as visible blood vessels or telangiectases) may appear during pregnancy on the nose, cheeks, or chin. Although these visible blood vessels are usually not a serious problem, they can be unsightly. Lasers and photorejuvenation therapy can reduce the appearance of telangiectases. Intense pulsed light (IPL) is a photorejuvenation treatment that can minimize the appearance of broken/visible blood vessels. IPL delivers light energy to the skin surface in precise pulses to rejuvenate the skin. IPL is effective for all skin types and can provide immediate, long-lasting results.
Leg spider veins may develop due to the pressure of the baby on the abdomen. Although spider veins are not generally painful, they can be unsightly and bothersome to many people. Spider veins on the legs may be treated with a gentle YAG laser in one-to-three sessions. Healing times are quicker, there is little discoloration at the treatment site and fewer treatments are needed than with traditional laser therapy.

Hi I am in Raleigh NC for a week. Would like to know if there are any farmers market around this time of the year and any other related interesting places to visit for a middle aged couple. Appreciate your response. Thank you Anna |

Anna - there is the huge State Farmer's Market on the southside of downtown near the I-40 Beltline off of Lake Wheeler Road. It's open all year but has the most vendors now. It's very large and well run - it should really be called a Produce Market because most of the vendors are not the farmer's that grew the produce (sometimes it's a relative, most often it is just someone hired to run the booth). During the week and on Saturday mornings there is another smaller market in downtown and one or two on the north side of downtown. Cary, Morrisville, Durham, Apex and Holly Springs all have Farmer's Markets within an hour of downtown Raleigh. If you want to drive a bit you should head over to Carrboro (beside Chapel Hill) for their well run/attended Real Farmers Market where the vendors are the farmers and just about all of them are organic. |
Thank you trianglejohn---Yes, I did visit NC state farmers market and couple of others held on Tue and Wed, else where. I am planning to visit Carrboro this Saturday, as they have annual event. I also visited Logen's nursery the other day and picked up several packets of heirloom/organic seeds. I am pretty exited about this section of NC (triangle) and would love to visit again. You guys have lots of thing going on here. Thank you. |

When I have had out-of-state visitors, the two things that have almost brought them to tears (comparing they're home state/city to Raleigh) is the State Farmers Market and Grand Asia Market - a large Asian grocery store on the edge of Cary, just off the beltline. You would think the public gardens would do it - but noooooo! When I tell them I shop there almost every week they start to hate me, and when I take them to Logans for lunch (a garden center with a cafe???!!!!) they pretty much plan on moving here. |
There is the North Hills Mall's "Midtown Raleigh Farmers Market" (on Six Forks Road just off I-440). 30 - 50 vendors every Saturday 8-noon. Live music, children's activities, dog visitors, open air yoga in the Commons area that is in the center of the U shaped Market surrounded by great shopping in unique stores. Quality gift items (pottery, wooden items, jams), lots of free samples of handmade treats and fresh produce, and all are local farmers who mostly grow naturally (without 'cides). Very friendly atmosphere and fun. Nancy |
Thank you both:) Missed out on Asian Market! May be next visit. Thanks again. |

My name is Tucker!
Facts about Tucker

- Color: Black - With Brown, Red, Golden, Orange Or Chestnut
- Age: Young
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Tucker's Info...
I am already neutered, housetrained, up to date with shots, and good with dogs.
Meet Tucker! They don't come any more charming than this boy! We think he is a mix of Gordon Setter and Spaniel – with some teddy bear thrown in for good measure! But the mix is unimportant when you see him in person. With wavy black hair, a goofy smile, and soft brown eyes, it will be love at first sight!

While we are still getting to know him personality, we do know that Tucker is a friendly, loving dog who will make a great addition to any home. He loves people and other dogs too! No longer a puppy at around 10 months old, Tucker is at that great age where he enjoys playing and exploring the world, but also loves to relax and cuddle. Tucker is a champion cuddler!
If you would like to give Tucker his second chance at a loving home, contact his adoption consultant, Debby, at 440-527-4926 or firstname.lastname@example.com. He can't wait to meet you!
Other Pets at The Rescue Inn
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Tucker, a North Olmsted Gordon Setter/Spaniel (Unknown Type) dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Gordon Setter/Spaniel (Unknown Type) for sale in North Olmsted, or seeking a Gordon Setter/Spaniel (Unknown Type) dog from a breeder in North Olmsted.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in North Olmsted already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a North Olmsted breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Gordon Setter/Spaniel (Unknown Type) breeders who help with Gordon Setter/Spaniel (Unknown Type) rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in North Olmsted paves the way for another one to be saved.

Volkswagen is preparing to go to court this week after European Union Officials attack long standing controversial rules within the company. The rules in question dictate that more than an 80 percent majority of stockholders is needed to pass major decisions. This means that any party with at least 20 percent of Volkswagen's stock can block major changes to the company including possible takeovers of the company.
The EU specifically disfavors the state of Lower Saxony, Volkswagen's second largest stakeholder at 20 percent of their stock, and wants the regulations on the matter changed to 75 percent, which is consistent with standard German security laws. Volkswagen's largest stockholder, Porsche (who owns 31 percent of Volkswagen), also opposes the plan. The EU maintains that the current situation deters bidders and breaks laws guaranteeing all EU companies the right to invest in any part of the 27 nation union.

I am a teacher who has been bitten by the baking/decorating bug! My daughter and I took 2 Wilton classes 1 1/2 years ago and are hooked. Although the classes gave us the basics, what we do now is far beyond what we learned in those classes. We Youtube, Google, and trial-and-error. Both of us have fledgling businesses now, and are so happy! I am a teacher who bakes, but some days wish I was a baker who teaches!

Hi All,
I've been using Tube & Pipe for a while now but have only just recently required to reinforce my smaller branches. I thought it would be relatively easy to achieve this but after investigating I can't find how to accomplish it.
When I am in the pipe run, the only option available to constrain the support is the 'connect fittings' option. This can't be used as I have no free connection points in my pipework to use.
If I constrain the support in the overall 'Tube & Pipe Runs.iam' the support won't show in the drawing view as my drawing views reference the individual pipe runs.
Has anyone else experienced this problem / know of a way in which I can solve this problem?
any help, as always is gratefully appreciated.

Can you Pack n Go one of your IDW's so I can see the problem in full.
I will setup an FTP folder for you to upload the files, please Zip the files first.

Sorry, I did not reply sooner but I was not informed you had uploaded files to the FTP site; I came across them by chance.
Anyway, I see your problem, once the pipe-runs have been placed in your drawing, it is difficult to append with the pipe clamps etc.
Your individual views in the IDW are all based on a Representation View, so if you make that view active in the assembly, you would think you could make your pipe clamps visible.
Having said that, it does not work as expected; as I am sure you found out for yourself.
More investigation needed.

"Stunning…a bit like if you took Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Monsters Inc. and shoved them in a TARDIS." –Buzzfeed
It's a tentacled, inventive, gooey, world in there. . . .Elliot Von Doppler and his friend Leslie think nothing ever happens in Bickleburgh, except inside the gleaming headquarters of DENKi-3000—the world's eighth-largest electronics factory.
Beneath the glass towers and glittering skywalks, there's a rambling old mansion from which all the company's amazing inventions spring forth. And no one except Uncle Archie knows what's behind the second-to-last door at the end of the hall.
Until Elliot and Leslie are invited to take a glimpse inside.
They find stooped, troll-like creatures with jutting jaws and broken teeth. Tiny winged things that sparkle as they fly. And huge, hulking, hairy nonhumans (with horns). It is unlike anything they've ever seen.
But when Chuck Brickweather threatens to shut down the DENKi-3000 factory if a new product isn't presented soon, the creatures know they are in danger. And when Uncle Archie vanishes, it's up to Elliot, Leslie, and every one of the unusual, er, "employees" to create an invention so astonishing it will save the Creature Department.
"Filled with wonder and populated by strange beings. In other words, it's pretty frickin' great." —Geeksmash
"The Creature Department is sure to appeal to those middle graders who like a lot of silliness, a bit of rickum rockery, and a giggle of grossness…" – NY Journal of Books
"The language is fun, the mood slightly macabre, and the imagination explosive." –This is Infamous
Underneath the eccentric creatures… eerie-yet-fun hidden laboratories, and whirring gizmos and gadgets, the appeal of The Creature Department lies within its more human values: friendship, being true to one's dreams, standing up for what you think is right, and never giving up. –GeekMom
"A literal Creature feature, with plenty of cinematic and digital spinoff potential." –Kirkus

GUWAHATI: In an ironic twist, Mahabharator Bhool, the video CD version of Tarun Saikia's satirical play of the same name is now available in the market despite the fact that the stage adaptation was stalled by the directorate of cultural affairs (DCA).
The CD version of Mahabharator Bhool made by Prabal Khaund and Manash Bhagawati was released a fortnight ago with promos about its availability in the market being splashed across almost all local news channels, and till now it hasn't confronted any controversies.
The stage adaptation of Saikia's immensely popular satirical play was stalled citing law and order problems 48 hours before it was scheduled to be staged at Rabindra Bhawan in March this year. The stage adaptation was to be done by Nagaon-based noted theatre organization Rangmahal.
"It was very disappointing that our play was finally stalled as we had really worked hard for many days. In a democratic society satires are important as it enables us to question and enrich our intellectual abilities. We never intended to hurt any religious sentiments. The play only wants to reflect the contemporary scenario with reference to the time and the characters," said Pabitra Pran Sharma, a noted dramatist and secretary Rangmahal.
Local sources said the video version was receiving lukewarm response because of its handling of the satire and also because of its purportedly low production value.
"We didn't stall the play; it was the decision of the DCA. We only highlighted the objectionable contents present in the drama. We will see the video version of the play and check if there are any objectionable content," said Abhijit Deka, North East secretary Vishwa Hindu Parishad.
Noted comedian and actor Jayanta Das who acted in the video version said, "There is a conspiracy behind barring the play from being staged and it should be examined. The play is a satire and each and every character has been studied. It should be noted that Mahabharata is not a holy book but an epic. The prevention of freedom of speech and expression is a dangerous trend. Even Peter Brooks had inducted a black actor to play the character of Bheema."

Quoted Text I worry about simply putting raw garlic in olive oil because of the possibility of food poisoning. Unless you are using it straight away, of course.
Quoted from Lola oh yes!I ve seen bubbles building up!
Quoted from Rodney I have a real difficult time slowing my thoughts down,
Quoted from Rodney Great ideas all thank you all. btw Eh I wish I could figure out how to really do the meditation thing I have a real difficult time slowing my thoughts down, I guess thats what needs to be done? Thanks again.
Quoted from Amazone I. huh ....what's about preservation of garlic in olive oil ....that's a common methode in south Europe, dito India but here merely a mixup in vinegar & fresh ginger slices I thought that garlic has aetheric oils in which are knowns as antibacterial, antiparasites etc how can we talk about as a food toxon .....tell me more about THAT please Madame eh .....merci-d'avence
Quoted from eh Rodney,They say the main thing is to be unattached to your thoughts but I think, in particular, to be unattached to any outcome is more important because let's face it, in trying to be unattached to your thoughts you are actually attaching yourself to an outcome.... It's amazing to me how just at the pecise point that you realise you've attained a level of unattachment, the feeling flees before you and then your mind pursues the fleeing sense of detachment....so, do I have any useful advice? One of my most brilliant yoga teachers once said, rather offhandedly, (as you do when you are wise beyond description ) that if you couldn't practice your postures everyday and if you could only practice once a week then be sure to practice at the same time each week. Apparently, in adhering to the same time and space if only for that one time a week, over time the postures would be as powerfully effective as if doing them more frequently (albeit in an ad hoc way). I applied this to my meditation practice as a technique. It works. Sometimes however, I just don't want to do the practice at the set time, but that is just part of the tussle with the nature of the mind..... Maybe we should cross post this? I'd love to hear whether others have collected a bagful of tricks in their dealings with their mind in meditation. eh

This image was shot in Bel Air, California about 10-20 minutes after sunset & I'm using the modeling lights from 2 Lumedyne battery powered strobe systems for additional lighting. One head is in a FourSquare 30″x30″ travel softbox, which is pressed up against the opened car door with the window rolled down and the other head is directly in front of the car aimed at the model. I'm shooting with the new Canon 5D MKIII set on 2500 ISO, 1/40 second shutter speed, using a 16-35 Canon zoom lens set at 16mm & f2.8.
This new Canon camera body has a great auto focus system that actually works about 95% of the time, a HUGE improvment over the 5D MKI & MKII.
The jacket, an Alan Michael USA creation, is made from leather with fish skin trim which sounds really strange but is really an interesting combination.

It's now here. … 3:07 P.M.
It's now here. … 3:07 P.M.
The Trouble With "Local Control": Ruben Navarrette of the San Diego Union-Trib argues that, for all the high-profile rhetoric from President Obama and his education secretary about getting rid of bad teachers–talk that's agitated the National Education Association–the fine print of the administration's proposed No Child Left Behind revisions puts the unions back in the driver's seat by "rolling back the involvement of the federal government in favor of more local control":
You remember local control. That's the governing principle that essentially handed the power over the system to teachers unions because they contribute so much money to the campaigns of labor-friendly school board members. The unions in turn put the job security of their members ahead of the educational well-being of students, and thus helped put our public schools in bad shape. You see, local control isn't the solution; it's one of the problems.
I've been arguing that Obama's national Democratic party is less beholden to the unions than our state Democratic party. That's true. But it still may be a little like arguing that the Mark Sanford is less creepy than John Edwards. … 1:02 A.M.
A suprise mystery guest on the Ricochet podcast tells me the bitter truth. (It comes after the 55 minute mark.) … 6:55 P.M.
Teachers' unions = layoff by seniority. In average districts, that just means losing lots of good teachers, instead of losing the least effective teachers. But in big cities like New York, where there's been an influx of young, idealistic Teach for America types, it's a tragedy. The best get laid off while mediocre ed school graduates from the 70s teach your children. … What if you tried to run a baseball team and had to lay off by seniority as opposed to performance? … P.S.: It's not as if school districts have to choose between layoffs-entirely-by-seniority and layoffs-entirely-by-merit. It would be easy to devise a system in which everyone who was an "OK" teacher got laid off by seniority, but the worst 10% got laid off first. But that deal would never be negotiated because today's teachers' unions (unlike the old self-disciplining 'professional' teachers' unions) seem to exist to protect the worst 10%. … 7:05 P.M.
More on Unions–The Too Little, Too Late Problem: Even when unions eventually agree to necessary concessions, the tooth-pulling process of negotiation often results in a fix that's too little, too late–and that cuts only the minimum necessary, leaving no margin for error or unforeseen events (like recessions). … Taxpayers who have followed the fortunes of General Motors and Chrysler are all too familiar with this phenomenon. But the same thing has happened in Los Angeles–where the city kept giving raises and adding jobs even as a recession loomed. When the downturn hit and revenues dropped, it took a year to negotiate cuts with the municipal unions. Now the city is up against it, facing the prospect of huge abrupt job cuts–and proposing a 28% utility rate hike to milk extra revenue from hard-pressed residents. … Phil Willon reports. … 7:23 P.M.
A generous item on Calbuzz about my attempts to speak to the California Democratic party at its upcoming convention. … If they want to endorse Sen. Boxer, fine. But why bother to declare her two opponents not "viable" and rule them out beforehand? I'll be on the ballot regardless. The main effect of the party's semi-authoritarian, Iraq-like decree seems to be to prevent me from speaking to the convention. Are they afraid someone might listen? I didn't realize Boxer was that insecure about her prospects. … 1:27 P.M.
Gagagaga: Where does it stop? Thomas Hegghammer argues that general disgust at encroaching Western cultural decadence is far less important, as a cause of Islamist terrorism directed at the U.S., than the Palestinian issue:
To the extent that Westernization causes militancy, the violence it inspires is nearly always directed at other Muslims, typically against regimes in Arab countries, because these legislate over matters of public morality. Jihadists are idealists, but they are not so utopian as to think they can stop Westernization by attacking America. However, they do think that by installing Islamist local governments, those governments can take measures to limit social liberalization.
This seems a little pat. Just because outrage at Lady Gaga currently leads to attacks only on Target A doesn't mean it will continue to do so in the future. If (as Reza Aslan, for one, suggests) Al Qaeda is best seen cynically as an organization bent on growth but flexible as to means, it should be able to switch to an "anti-Westernization" recruitment theme should the anti-Israel theme peter out. … Hegghammer soon retreats to the near-inarguable point that resolving the Palestinian issue would "likely" reduce recruitment. … 11:14 A.M.
Decimal, Schmecimal: Sunlight Foundation overstates Stupak group earmarks by a factor of 10. … 10:45 A.M.
Tomorrow's Yesterday's David Brooks column today: With the enactment of a form of universal health insurance, is the edifice of the modern American welfare state complete? Sure, there's tinkering to be done: Add a public option? Increase the Earned Income Tax Credit? But is there some huge badly-needed state-provided benefit or entitlement that's not now on offer? Or is the job of New Deal Liberalism (Benefits Division) largely complete? … You have to wonder if this will have an impact like the closing of the frontier. Will the Democratic party turn inwards, directing its now-diminished energy and idealism into satisfying the smaller concerns of its interest groups? (And how will we tell the difference in California? Just kidding!) … Will this be like the moon landing–not the beginning of dramatic achievements for NASA, but the end, at least for a long time. … When the parties are competing domestically mainly on the issue of who can rev up the economy, will the relatively small differences between them (neither party's socialist, neither is for killing Social Security or Medicare or–soon–Obamacare) yield more vicious campaigning, faculty politics style? … 1:51 P.M.
Maybe I can dramatize it this way: If CNN's Jon Klein were a unionized L.A. teacher, he'd still have his job! … What's that you say? You're kidding. … Well, check back and see if he's still there in a month. … 7:31 P.M.
A contribution site should be up any day now. Don't worry, John! … 5:57 P.M.
Ron Kaye blames L.A. Mayor Villaraigosa's disastrous proposal for an up-to-28% utility hike–in the middle of a brutal recession, when private sector workers are hurting but Department of Water and Power workers have recently gotten raises–on labor boss Brian D'Arcy. But does D'Arcy want to use the mayor's "renewable" initiative to create thousands of questionable union "green" jobs--or does he just want the DWP to become a cash cow that funds the rest of government? Kaye has argued both. And I suppose that could be the answer. … 12:15 A.M.
The Perverse World of Democratic Party Values: I've mentioned that the state Democratic party is charging $60 for lunch with Arianna but only $20 for Los Lobos. It turns out they want $120 for dinner with AFL-CIO chief Rich Trumka. I guess that accurately reflects who's boss in the Democratic party these days. … Arianna for $60 suddenly seems like a good deal. … 12:18 A.M.
Saturday I spoke briefly to the the Alice B. Toklas GLBT PAC in San Francisco. They were very nice. It was kind of them to invite me to make a pitch. But I would say they were somewhat less than fully supportive of my message. I felt like I was one of those panhandlers in a subway car in New York. The passengers just look straight ahead into space. … You figure they'd at least want to argue. But debate isn't on the agenda. Time to put it there. … 6:22 P.M.
I'm not a Tea Partier. I'm in a distinct anti-government mood, however, after the U.S. Postal Service failed today to deliver an "Express Mail" letter that was mailed on Friday. Applying Kaus's First Rule of Journalism:
a) This confirms my belief– informed by a stint working at the Post Office– that if you put an ordinary nondescript letter in the regular stream of mail it will promptly be delivered to the right address. Local mail carriers tend to know their customers and do a pretty good job. But if you pay extra for Special VIP Registered Certified Express Do-Not-Lose Service, your letter will be lost. It's so special they put it in a special place! And then forget it's there.
b) The larger point!: Consumers of government services are in for a bad time during budget crises. Not only do government agencies cut back on hours and personnel (often a time-honored ploy to trigger citizen demands for rescinding the cuts) but the personnel that remain on the job have an incentive to provide lousy service, lest citizen/taxpayers conclude that their new, smaller budget is perfectly adequate. This incentive operates independent of unions. … P.S.: Private firms–at least in competitive industries–normally can't milk more money from their customers by providing bad service. (An exception, as David Cutler points out, may be the private health insurance industry. If you run a health insurance company and give great service, paying without hassle and on time, you may attract a lot of sick people as customers–and go broke.)
I just received the official candidates' notice from the California Secretary of State's office. It's on.
There are serious issues to be raised, and I will do my best to raise them.
Is there really no place in the Democratic party for voters who believe in "affirmative government"–including health care reform– but have doubts about the power of public employee unions, including the unions that protect bad teachers?
Is there no place for voters who recognize the immense contributions of immigrants but have doubts giving amnesty before we secure our borders? …
If you share my doubts about current Democratic dogma on these issues, and others, I hope you will join with this effort.
A campaign web site will be up shortly. I'll link to it from this blog. (www.kausfiles.com). The primary is June 8, more than two months away. An eternity in internet time! Thanks. 5:37 P.M.
Working to set up my campaign web site, which will include ways to contribute and volunteer. … Waiting for a response from the state Democratic convention, where I've asked for an "appropriate" speaking slot. … Being ignored by the L.A. Times. … It's all going according to plan! …
P.S.: The Times mentions "demographic groups traditionally less interested in politics, particularly residents of Southern California …." Yikes. That's a big "demographic group" to be bored with politics. I blame … the L.A. Times, which has been making politics in Southern California boring for half a century. … 10:07 P'.M.
Thorough piece by David Hogberg on the "20 Ways ObamaCare Will Take Away Our Freedoms." The trouble–from Hogberg's point of view–is that the list is not that scary. Nothing worth abandoning universal health care over. … "Death panels"= scary! … Inability to buy "insurance with lifetime or annual limits on coverage" = not so scary. … 10:17 P.M.
"Unsustainable" is the new "comprehensive"–a word reformers have begun to deploy in mysterious unison, in the apparent belief that it is magically convincing to voters (as in, "The current health care system is unsustainable"). ' Like "comprehensive," the word is in reality a sure-fire turnoff. … "Comprehensive" scares voters with the thought that they are being governed by know-it-all,we've-thought-of-everything professors. It leads them to worry what the grand plan is hiding and to search for more incremental solutions. … "Unsustainable" is a get-up-and-get-a-beer word–as in, you get up and get a beer in order to ponder the complex question of whether the system really is "unsustainable." I mean, you're getting by, even if you worry about health coverage and all these experts are saying we'll go broke in 15 years. It's hard to see why things couldn't continue the way they are going for a long time. … It would be more convincing if reform proponents simply said, "This will be a better system and here's why …" 10:53 P.M.

3.6 Accountability We have discovered that legal rules and principles are often more flexible than first imagined, but they still set the boundaries of permissible action and create a framework for decision making to which social workers are accountable. We have also seen that accountability is essential if power is to be kept in check and some of the negative effects of discretion are to be avoided. Decisions must be transparent, and the process by which they are made must be fair, reasonable and within legal
2.2 Finding out about social work There is evidence that public knowledge about social work in Scotland is 'fairly low', with apparent confusion between social services and welfare benefits – 'the social' – and over the boundaries between social work and social care. The MORI survey also reported that those most likely to be in need of social support – older people, lower social income and minority ethnic groups – were particularly ill informed about availability and access to services (Davidson and
2.3 Social work and social change
Social work is a dynamic profession that is undergoing a period of significant change in Scotland. Social workers have the power to make assessments and decisions that radically alter people's lives. This unit introduces the law as it relates to social work and encourages an understanding of the context of the law in order to make sound decisions.

This unit introduces the law as it relates to social work and encourages an understanding of the context of the law in order to make sound decisions.
3.3 Summary of part C What the courts have established in the cases we have looked at is not a hard and fast privacy doctrine, but a situation in which each case is decided by individual judges on its particular merits. There is no free-standing right to privacy for individuals to enforce. However, where individuals have a strong countervailing interest to protect, the courts are willing to uphold their right to confidence. Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones successf
6.8 Extrinsic aids Extrinsic aids are matters which may help put an Act into context. Sources include previous Acts of Parliament on the same topic, earlier case law, dictionaries of the time, and the historical setting. In addition, Hansard can now be considered. Hansard is the official report of what was said in Parliament when the Act was debated. The use of Hansard was permitted following the decision in Pepper (Inspector of Taxes) v Hart (1993) where the House of Lords accepted that Hansard could be
6.7 Intrinsic aids Intrinsic aids are matters within an Act itself which may help make the meaning clearer. The court may consider the long title, the short title and any preamble. Other useful internal aids may include headings before a group of sections and any schedules attached to the Act. There are also often marginal notes explaining different sections; however, these are not generally regarded as giving Parliament's intention as they will have been inserted after parliamentary debates and are only helpfu
6.6 Rules of language The courts may also choose to look at other words in the statute to ascertain the meaning of specific words. To enable them to do this they have developed a number of rules of language to help make the meaning of words and phrases clear. There are three main rules of language:
Ejusdem generis
This rule states that where there is a list of words which is followed by general words then the general words are limited to the same kind of it
6.5.1 Presumptions When determining the meaning of particular words the courts will make certain presumptions about the law. If the statute clearly states the opposite, then a presumption will not apply and it is said that the presumption is rebutted. The main presumptions are: A presumption against change in the common law. It is assumed that the common law will apply unless Parliament has made it plain in the Act that the common law has been altered.
6.5 The purposive approach This approach has emerged in more recent times. Here the court is not just looking to see what the gap was in the old law, it is making a decision as to what they felt Parliament meant to achieve. Lord Denning in the Court of Appeal stated in Magor and St. Mellons Rural District Council v Newport Corporation (1950), 'we sit here to find out the intention of Parliament and of ministers and carry it out, and we do this better by filling in the gaps and making sense of the enactmen
6.4 The mischief rule This third rule gives a judge more discretion than either the literal or the golden rule. This rule requires the court to look to what the law was before the statute was passed in order to discover what gap or mischief the statute was intended to cover. The court is then required to interpret the statute in such a way to ensure that the gap is covered. The rule is contained in Heydon's Case (1584), where it was said that for the true interpretation of a statute, four things have to be
6.3 The golden rule This rule is a modification of the literal rule. It states that if the literal rule produces an absurdity, then the court should look for another meaning of the words to avoid that absurd result. The rule was closely defined by Lord Wensleydale in Grey v Pearson (1857) HL Cas 61, who stated: The grammatical and ordinary sense of the words is to be adhered to unless that would lead to some absurdity or some r 6.2 The literal rule Under this rule the judge considers what the statute actually says, rather than what it might mean. In order to achieve this, the judge will give the words in the statute a literal meaning, that is, their plain ordinary everyday meaning, even if the effect of this is to produce what might be considered as an otherwise unjust or undesirable outcome. The literal rule says that the intention of Parliament is best found in the ordinary and natural meaning of the words used. As the legislative dem 6.1 Introduction In this part we will explore the number of rules developed by the courts to assist with the interpretation of a statute. These are: the literal rule the golden rule the mischief rule the purposive approach. These rules each take different approaches to interpretation of a statute. Some judges prefer one rule, while other judges prefer another. Some judges also feel that their role is 5.2 Summary of Part D Part D explored several of the reasons which may result in a word or phrase in an Act of Parliament having an unclear meaning. This was illustrated by a number of examples. Interpretation of those words or phrases becomes a task for the courts. In this role, it can be argued that the courts are involved in the law-making process as they have been required to interpret and define a statute. 5.1 Reasons for unclear meaning The meaning of law in a statute should be clear and explicit, but this is not always achieved. Thus, many of the cases which come before the courts concern a dispute over the meaning of a word or phrase in a statute. In those cases the task of the court is to decide the exact meaning of that particular word or phrase. There are a number of factors which can lead to an unclear meaning.
A broad term – There may be words designed to cover sever 4.4 Summary of Part C In Part C you have learnt that: accurate law reporting allows for legal principles to be collated, identified and accessed; there are many sources of law reports: Year Books (1275–1535), private reports (1535–1865), modern reports (1865 to present), the Law Reports, Weekly Law Reports, All England Law Reports, legal periodicals and newspapers, European Community Reports, DVD-ROMs and legal databases available via the internet. 4.3 Summary of accurate law reporting This section stressed the importance of accurate law reporting which allows for legal principles to be collated, identified and accessed. I examined where you might locate case reports on particular areas of the law. These are: Year Books (1275–1535) Private reports (1535–1865) Modern reports (1865 to present) The Law Reports Weekly Law Reports (citation WLR) All 4.2.11 Neutral citation In line with the ongoing modernisation of the whole legal system, the way in which cases are to be cited has been changed. Since January 2001 a new neutral system was introduced, and cases in the various courts are now cited as follows ('EW' means England and Wales):

Ford Mustang (2004 and earlier)
demonspeed Posts: 75There is absolutely nothing wrong with removing that silencer. It's such a bottle neck (as you all can see). Opening that up is a drastic improvment, and although you might not feel it, it's there. A good replacment filter such as a K&N is a good choice to go along with it if you don't plan on a true intake, but since you are mentioning one, i'd do it. It'll brighten the engine bay up and add a couple ponies.
midlifer Posts: 21I was wondering when you buy the Mac cold air unit does it come with a Filter? I did replace the Origanal with a K&N the first week i bought it did i waist $50.00 if i go to the Mac unit?
And if it Does not fit the Mac System I have a 2000 Expedition 5.4 Triton will it fit that? I will have to check a local AutoZone book to see if its the same size,or better yet pull it out and compare! Dahhh. -
americanflag Posts: 400Anyway, MidL there are several other discussions on that forum you can look at. My take is that there may or may not be a small horsepower loss (or gain). But I love the sound, so I am happy. Whatever effect it has had on hp has been small. They also say that shaving the silencer like you did is probably the best option. I think maybe you just have the bug!
I am very happy with the change because the sound increase that resulted gives the car enough immediacy that I don't feel the need to do the exhaust right away. My pocketbook appreciates not having to sell out $600 for the exhaust just yet -
demonspeed Posts: 75You will get a K&N cone unit. It'll be very easy to install as I did it on my friends 99 GT. It's definetly arguable wheither or not a CAI works or not (I have one on my 93 that didn't seem to make any difference), and they say you might lose power due to the fact the metal heats up and causes a reverse effect of what it's designed to use, but I didn't notice a loss or a gain either way. My friend with the 99 said there was a gain and I have another friend with an 02 V6 I removed the silencer out of and he said it was noticable with that.
Either way, the best place to start is to get the thing breathing better, so opening up the intake one way or another is the best place to start. I would then definetly look into a catback and x/h pipe. I would highly reccomend long tube headers with the 4.6 if you plan at all on replacing the stock manifolds as the shorty headers for the 96+ are not hardly effectively noticable to increase power to justify the cost and time to install them. I personally would do the intake, catback, h/x-pipe (I have an offroad X on my 93) and then go with a set of pulley's. You should definetly be very close to the 13 second range with those assuming you can cut good times (like 2.2 60' or better). I would also HIGHLY suggest an after market shifter such as one by Steeda (what I have) or Pro 5.0. Either way, good start with the "mod bug". Mine just cost me $700 bucks as I just purchase a Trick Flow Track Heat intake manifold and Accufab 70mm throttle body, i'm hoping for some AFR 165 heads soon as well. I will be heading for 12's before this next summer is over, oh yes, I will -
john_324 Posts: 974I removed my silencer about 3 months ago. I drove the car extensively right before removal, and then immediately afterward to try to discern the effects of silencer-ectomy. On my car, I noticed a tad more throatiness at idle and a lot more noise at WOT. Performance wise, I'd say the only noticeable benefit was that the car seems to rev easier.
I like it, and if worst case I lost a few hp, it's worth it for me for the better sound...like 'Flag, I value the "immediacy" over raw performance.
But I have noticed recently that as my car ages (it's 9 months old), the sound is getting better. Seems more throaty and pronounced. Maybe the mufflers have been breaking in a bit.. -
midlifer Posts: 21My experience has been the same,great sound @ WOT.
I passed my wife and kids last night following them home ,full throttle in 2nd her window was down they said it sounded Awesome! i think that was my 9 year old boys words HaHa. But you are correct it Revs. more effortlessly. I just trimmed mine back so as not to get to much under hood air.I still want more sound. The Xmas bonus will be here in 2 weeks ,i think the Magnaflows are a done deal. I was going to put a Mac COS system on but there are so many pros and cons iut there? Pipe heating up? i am more confused than ever about the induction stuff. So i will do the Exhaust. I will have to look the other way when they cut that 3 month old Stock Polished Beauties off there.
Any more opinions on the induction... C&l MAF? MAC? -
john_324 Posts: 974I'm personally skipping the CAI system...I do have a K&N filter though. I did the same drill when I dropped in the K&N, and noticed another boost in "revability" and throttle response. Also noticed the idle seemed to smooth out a little (I'm still undecided whether I like that or not though...love my 4.6 I do, but I REALLY like the 'lumpy idle' of the 5.0)
I like the sound of the magnaflows (certainly sound better to me than the magnapacks). I may in a year or so go with the Ford Racing catback, as I want a little increase in sound, but nothing too loud (i.e. no flowmasters). Plus it's all stainless, and about $260. -
john_324 Posts: 974I also think, but I'm not sure, that the stock system sounds better outside the car than it does inside. As none of my friends can drive a 5-spd, I've never been able to hear what mine sounds like from a "by-stander" pov.
I do try to listen to other Mustangs, but it's frequently hard to tell if it's stock or not... But the Bullitts do sound *amazing* straight from the factory. Distinctive, but not too loud. -
midlifer Posts: 21I just want a little more sound ,not to much after all i'm supposed to be 40yrs old. I met a guy with a Bullitt and he had just put the Magnaflows on ,and at idle not much change from stock real nice @ WOT. I was really impressed with the H.P. gains on the Magnaflows ive seen on various test. It makes me believe i could just do cat backs and get the same gains as some people doing x pipes Headers and the hole nine Yards? i think it was 19 H.P.,24 TQ. $450.00 installed all stainless.

gsxrter1994 Posts: 24
americanflag Posts: 400Ford I am sure you read my posts. Yes, I will be sending in my resume to your company.
But in the meantime, I have a suggestion. The Bullitt wheels are some of the best looking wheels out there. Yes, the owners of the original Bullitt editions whine because they are now generally distributed, but who cares? What are they gonna do, trade in their Bullitt edition? I don't think so, they know they got it made with that car.
Anyway, my idea is to keep the design of the Bullitt wheels, but make the interiors black like on the original 68 Mustang wheels. The black wheels look great and really stand out from all the chrome wheels which have proliferated these days (I did't say rice). The look of the black wheels is less flashy, and more low key and basic. Also, it will introduce some variety in the wheel design so that Ford will be less likely just to stop offering the Bullitt style wheels.
I know black Bullitt wheels are offered on the aftermarket, but I think they would look great on new Mustangs too

Check out page XII of the 2002 Ford Racing Parts catalogue: "2001 Special Edition Charcoal Mustang GT Wheel (part M-1007-J178) retail price $165 each

jeffmust2 Posts: 811My son lives in L.A. and recently purchased a low-mileage 2001 GT. Now he has acquired a set of H&R springs, CC plates, and better shocks (forgotten the brand) to all be installed at the same time.
Here's the problem - he's having a hard time finding a knowledgable installation place within the greater Los Angeles area. Sure, lots of tire places that do springs, shocks, alignments etc but he'd like to find a place that has a few Stangs on the lot - all he finds are Asian performance places because that's where the $$$ is today.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. He found one place in San Diego but that's a couple of 300 mile roundtrips. -
americanflag Posts: 400car there was available a greater option list? (Like in the old days, I know, I am nostalgic.) But it would be great to have more options at time of purchase, oh well, the black Bullitt wheels are awesome, I would love to actually see them on a Mustang. If you watch Bullitt, the wheels on his Mustang are actually black (not even gray) inside. Also, I noticed that the rear of the 68 Mustang had a chrome lining defining the outline (do you know what I mean?), this was a great touch and something Ford should maybe consider for the 2005. Especially given all the consternation about the new rear end on the new Mustang thread. Ford!!??? Do you hear me??

americanflag Posts: 400
gtgtcobra Posts: 259The NEW Body style Mustang will probably go into production in the late fall of 2004 and it will be called a 2005 model.
As for the 2004 model year, from say the fall of 2004 up to and including the end of the summer of 2004, Ford will keep building the current body style Mustang. We will see the BOSS Mustang in the current body style in the end of the summer or fall of 2003 and it will probably be called a 2004 BOSS Mustang. I hope that this information helps you here. -

midlifer Posts: 21Have not read anything from Zues lately? I just wanted to thank him again for his expert advise. It was probably a month ago we had a discussion on Waxes. He recommended the Maquires Mirror Glaze (in the tan bottle)Great stuff ,it was 70deg. yesterday so i waxed the True Blue Stang up "Again" and that mirror glaze is the best shine i have ever had with no build up or dust!!
You guys were right again! -
americanflag Posts: 400
blacktalon Posts: 203Well, I have to agree with the consensus. I think this design is very bad. When I first saw the front end, I thought they had mixed up the Mustang with some sort of truck/convertible crossover vehicle.
If this is just a concept, then I hope the production vehicles is more like the semi-retro concept pics from the magazines. I usually don't like "retro", but I thought the earlier Mustang concept looked pretty sharp... -

Dave Williams, an 18-year employee of Cincinnati-based Caruso Inc. who spent more than 35 years in the produce business, has died. He was 64.
Williams died Oct. 4 from complications of a heart attack.
Williams |
Williams was promoted to vice president in the mid-2000s, and took over as vice president of trucking in a company restructure in July 2009.
Before joining Caruso, he developed a relationship with the company as a customer for 12 years, said Jeff Busch, chief operating officer.
"We're really going to miss his personality in the office," Busch said. "Obviously we're going to miss his skills and experience, but in a family-run company like we are, we're a tight-knit family."
Busch said Williams kept the mood in the office light and jovial.
"He was sure a fantastic guy," Busch said.
Williams also served in the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve, according to Tufts Schildmeyer Family Funeral Home, Loveland, Ohio. He is survived by his wife, Nancy Bowersock Williams; three children, David, Bradley and Mary Ann; two grandchildren, his brothers, Neva Hermiller, Thomas Williams, Robert Williams and Melvin Williams.
