A young member of Undertaker. She really looks up to Gai Tsutsugami.
Kyou (Kyo) is a young member of Undertaker. She is very friendly, and was one of the only people who were kind to Shu when he was training to be a member of Undertaker. She is very eager to participate in Undertaker's missions, and really looks up to Gai Tsutsugami. Little has been revealed about her past, other than her being the youngest Undertaker member.
Kyou's first and last time to fight on a battle field along with Gai was during the Leukocyte mission. When the Leukocyte struck, all of Gai's troops died, and Kyou was severely injured and was on the verge of death. Kyou managed to say her last words, while keeping a faint smile despite the tears falling down her cheek. Gai ends up shooting Kyou to end her suffering.
Kyou's character design is created by Redjuice Graphics.
Kyou's last words: "I'll remember my whole life...that you told me you liked my voice...Gai-san."
Ep. 6
Kyou is very friendly and has a very upbeat and sweet character. She really looks up to Gai, and has always wanted to fight alongside him.
Kyou is seen dressed in a baggy green jacket with a hood, and dark pants. She has black hair which she wears in a pony tail, and has two curly strands that are visible at the sides of her head. She has dark eyes and pale skin, and has a bag that she wears over her shoulder and crosses her chest.
Kyou is friendly with all the Undertaker members. She is especially fond of Gai, and she reveals that she was very happy when he complimented her voice.
During the Leukocyte mission, Kyou was in charge of checking the number of GHQ squadrons that were heading towards the Undertaker troops. After reporting the number of squadrons to Gai, everything seemed to be going according to plan. However, the GHQ launched an attack with the use of the Leukocyte, which annihilated Gai's troops. Kyou managed to survive the attack, but she was fatally injured. Gai happened to be by her side as she spoke her final words. Kyou thanked Gai for telling her that she had a nice voice, and she tells him that she'll always remember what he said. As she spoke, she wore a faint smile, and a tear fell done her cheeks. Gai then takes out a gun and shoots Kyou.
Gai later says that Kyou was smiling and was happy that he was safe and that he survived the Leukocyte attack.

Pepsi Center, Denver, CO
DENVER -- Carmelo Anthony could barely put on his socks and struggled to fasten his watch.
Tying his shoes?
That was simply too much for his injured right hand.
Anthony scored 21 points and set a season-high with nine assists despite injuring his hand in the third quarter of the Denver Nuggets' 135-115 win over the Indiana Pacers on Monday night.
Fast Facts
• The Nuggets' point total (135) was their season high and the eighth time they have scored at least 135 points this decade.
• Denver has won eight of its last nine games against Indiana. It is 2-0 on the current seven-game homestand, tied for the longest in team history.
• The 135 points is the most allowed by the Pacers since giving up 141 in February 2002 against the Mavericks.
• Danny Granger scored 36 points in the loss, the fouth-highest total of his career. The Pacers are just 2-5 when Granger scores 35 or more points.
-- ESPN research
The All-Star forward is headed off to a specialist Tuesday for further evaluation. The team, which described the injury as a "probable" fracture, said it doesn't know how much time the star will miss.
Judging by how bad the hand hurt after the game, Anthony wasn't confident he'll play Wednesday night against the Miami Heat. He may be out even longer than that.
"It's sore and stiff right now," Anthony said.
Anthony said the injury occurred when Jeff Foster tried to slap the ball out of his hand early in the third quarter.
The hand bothered him so much that he drew nothing but air on a free throw attempt, the memory bringing a pained smile to his face.
"Out there, I didn't have any feel whatsoever," he said.
Anthony also missed three games last month with a bruised right elbow.
Now this.
His dinged-up hand marred the Nuggets' fourth win in a row.
"Hopefully, we get some good news on it tomorrow," said Chauncey Billups, who scored 13 of his 24 points in the final quarter. "That would not be good, of course, to have him out again."
The Nuggets are now 24-12 after 36 games, matching their best start since their first year in the NBA in 1976-77.
Kenyon Martin finished with 25 points, the fourth time this season he's led the team in scoring.
Danny Granger had 36 points, the most scored against the Nuggets this season. He's now scored 30 or more points 10 times this season.
"It was one of those nights where our defense wasn't that great and they were executing really well," Granger said. "It's something that's so frustrating ... There's no excuse for the type of defense we played."
Troy Murphy added 15 points and 12 rebounds, while Jarrett Jack contributed 17.
Denver led by as many as 20 points early in the game, only to see the Pacers tie it at 80 on Granger's layup in the third quarter. Anthony restored the lead on a 10-foot turnaround jumper the next time down the court, and the Nuggets wouldn't relinquish the advantage.
They outscored the Pacers 38-23 in the final quarter.
"Our first half was interesting," Nuggets coach George Karl said. "The second half was good."
At least until Anthony banged his hand.
Even if Anthony has to sit, he's confident the team can hold it together until he returns. The team is now 23-9 since acquiring Billups for Allen Iverson in early November.
"We're feeling really good right now, we're playing good basketball," Anthony said.
Pacers coach Jim O'Brien will vouch for that. He thinks they're one of the elite teams in the Western Conference.
"I was as impressed with this group as I've been with any team in the league that I've scouted," O'Brien said before the game. "I think they're absolutely for real. I think anybody that thinks differently will find out that I'm right at the end of this season."
A healthy Anthony would definitely help their cause.
Game notes
There was plenty of chirping at the officials in the first half as O'Brien, Linas Kleiza, Anthony and Karl all drew technicals for arguing. ... The Pacers may soon have Mike Dunleavy back on the court, possibly even Wednesday at Phoenix. Dunleavy has been out all season with a right knee injury. ... The Pacers kicked off a season-long five-game road trip against Denver. ... Pacers G T.J. Ford, bothered by a sore lower back, suited up but didn't play. ... Indiana G Marquis Daniels strained his left groin in the first half and didn't return. He finished with two points.

Valrhona Chocolate Pudding Reviews
Gourmet | September 2004
Adapted from City Limits Diner, Stamford, CT
reviews & comments (26)
Help! Followed directions exactly, puddings looked like they were done after 1 1/4 hours. When I served them the next day there was a thick chocolate layer on the top and the bottom was soup! Any insight would be appreciated!
Wonders and easy. Added a pinch of cinnamon to the liquid before pouring into ramekins. Used 64% Cailler chocolate and didn't strain because no vanilla bean available. Subbed 1 tsp. Penzey's single strength vanilla extract. Served with fresh whipped cream and shaved a bit of chocolate on top. Great with a glass of Kahlua!
EDITOR'S NOTE: Our apologies for the recipe typo. We have included a link on how to prepare a water bath for baking! The recipe should be all set now. -Epicurious.com Editor
Made this for a holiday party this weekend and it was quite good. The flavor was perfect--used Scharfenberger chocolate as I couldn't find Valrhona. I made a double batch, though my ramekins were 6oz so they ended up a little larger than the recommended size. (Worked fine but these are rich, so if you're serving after large meal I'd go smaller rather than larger.) I also made it 2 days ahead and it tasted fresh. Unfortunately the puddings were a tiny bit grainy. I assume the fault was mine since no other reviews mention grainiess. Guess I'll have to try it again and see!
This sounds very easy, and I'd like to make it. However, do I understand correctly that it IS TO BE COOKED in a bain marie? If you took hot custard cups out of a hot oven and put them in a water bath, I think you'd have cracked cups. This recipe is not complete, I don't think. Can anyone get the Gourmet mag and clear this up?
I enjoyed this pudding so much at City Limits that I came on epicurious to see if I could find a comparable recipe. So happy to find the real thing! Great pudding, it came out beautiful. Needed a little more time in the fridge to set properly.
absolutely delicious. Would have appreciated a bit more instruction on bain marie technique but they turned out yummy. Used a mix of 100% cocoa mass and madagascan 85% chocolate. wonderful!
No review, but I love epicurious. Went to City Limits last night and was hoping to find a recipe similar to the amazing Chocolate Pudding I had there. I can't wait to try it at home.
Amazing pudding -- has impressed every guest I've served it to! Keep in mind that it's all about the quality of the chocolate -- my local Whole Foods was out of the excellent El Rey chocolate (58%) that I used the first time, so I tried substituting a cheaper brand. It ended up grainy and lacked flavor. Likewise, milk chocolate will not work, so make sure you stick pretty closely to the percentage of cacao in the chocolate.

On the highway slog out of L.A., the CrossCabriolet rides great, its cloth roof insulates the cabin from wind noise, and its continuously variable transmission keeps the engine speed remarkably low. The Bose stereo sounds great, except when you've tuned to FM radio, which sounds like AM. Time to hook up the iPod.
Driving the CrossCabriolet is not significantly different from driving a regular Murano, except when there are other cars around. Our sincerest apologies to the Honda Civic we nearly lane-changed into (the Murano's frameless doors have 46-inch-high upper sills). Oh, and also to the BMW we accidentally brake-checked. You see, the rear window presents itself in duplicate, with two tiny openings that allow the top to fold into five smaller sections. Unfortunately, neither opening allows you to see the cars behind you -- the upper window is positioned for stargazing, the lower for bird watching.
The curvy mountain roads prove no challenge for this Murano, which carves corners just fine on its twenty-inch wheels. In losing its roof, the CC has gained only 229 pounds over a four-door Murano, and with an additional 5 hp and 8 lb-ft of torque, acceleration feels similar. Off the line, that's not a good thing, since the CVT's shortest ratio is more like a second gear. Starting out on a hill as we ascend past 5000 feet, the Murano performs a spectacularly unimpressive eleven-second run to 30 mph and can't pull away from our leadfooted photographer racing us in a four-cylinder Nissan Rogue.
We make it to the ski resort without any problems, and we even return to the city before the roads become too treacherous. However, we don't go skiing -- that would have required skis. The Murano's rear seats don't fold down and there's no pass-through, so our only choice would have been to lower the roof and put the skis upright in back, an impractical solution, at best. Yes, you can take a Murano CC to a mountain ski resort with confidence. Just not with skis.

Before entering her classroom each day, Jill Powers reminds herself not to count the days, but rather to make each day count.
This reminder has, in part, earned her this year's Educator of the Year award for Billings Catholic Schools.
"It's such an honor," Powers said. "Teaching is a responsibility I take to heart, so this recognition means a lot. But, it's already an honor to teach among all the amazing teachers that are in our school system."
Powers, 42, is in her seventh year of teaching for the Catholic schools.
Alumni, staff and parents nominated Powers, now a kindergarten teacher at Saint Francis Primary, after the annual nomination form was sent out in January with the monthly newsletter. The announcement was made after an all-school Mass at Central High School on Jan. 28.
The only person surprised by the outcome of the nomination was Powers herself.
Kathy Harris, BCS marketing director, said Powers received more nominations than any other teacher in the 32 years the system has given the award.
"The nominations were consistent across the board," Harris said. "People who nominated her said she has such reverence for learning and that her classroom is magical."
During an afternoon lesson Thursday, Powers and her classroom of 22 students made fresh-squeezed lemonade as they explored the letter L. After all the lemons were squeezed, students sampled their concoction.
The summer cocktail on a February day seemed appropriate, given that Powers' classroom is jungle-themed with palm trees and monkeys.
A corner of the classroom designated for reading is shaded from window light by a large green canopy shaped like a palm leaf.
The class pet is a sock monkey named Max. Each week, Max goes home with a student along with a journal composed of photos and entries of students' adventures with Max.
Hanging on the wall in the classroom is a chart titled Monkey Business, which lists students' weekly class duties such as line leader and prayer helper.
Beside the chart is space designated for the class' "Top Banana," a title given to one student each week for demonstrated excellence.
"She has a great way of making each child feel like an individual," said Powers' principal, Karen Petermann. "She has high expectations for her students with the right amount of balance of kindness and authority in her classroom."
Ask 6-year-old Nolan Harada what he likes best about kindergarten and he'll tell you it's his teacher, Mrs. Powers. And recess, of course. The lemonade, however, was a bit sour for his taste, he said.
"I try to keep learning fun," Powers said. "As long as I'm having fun, I know my students are, too."
As long as she can remember, Powers said, she has wanted to teach.
She received her degree in early education from Rocky Mountain College in 1992. She has since taught preschool, kindergarten and sixth and third grades.
In 2003, Powers was selected for the National Child Care Teacher award for her day care services at Ellsworth Air Force Base in South Dakota, where her husband, Scott, 43, was stationed at the time.
Her husband's job as flight chief of recruiting has landed the couple and their daughters — Lauren, 18, Sarah, 15 and Alivia, 11 — in many different communities before their move to Billings seven years ago.
And when Scott was transferred to Spokane, the family made the decision that Powers and their children would remain in Billings while he finished out his last 2 1/2 years in Washington before retirement last August.
"Billings Catholic Schools was one of the main reasons why my girls and I stayed here and my husband commuted back and forth," Powers said. "It was really important to us to have the schools in our life. We knew in the long term, we wanted our girls to graduate from here and I wanted to teach here."
All three of their daughters attend Billings Catholic Schools, and all three want to be teachers, Powers said.
"I often think about what, as a parent, I would want for my own children, and that's what I try to provide for my students," Powers said. "The kids spend more time with me during waking hours than they do with their parents. I feel like that is a huge responsibility that I care deeply about."
Powers said she regularly attends early education conventions around the nation where she learns about new teaching methods and materials that she incorporates into her classroom.
"I'm constantly learning and the students are constantly learning," Powers said. "Kindergarten never stays the same. Education and technology are always evolving."
Teaching her students to be good citizens is the foundation from which she teaches. A big part of that, she said, is having the ability to pray and teach religion lessons in her classroom.
She said there are a number of reasons why parents choose to enroll their children in the system, such as small classroom sizes. But, she said, ultimately parents make the choice based on the opportunity for their kids to learn about the Catholic religion.
"Our school system is unique," she said. "So many of our kids are in the system from kindergarten and up, learning the same set of core values throughout that is faith-based."
When she was presented the Educator of the Year plaque during the all-school Mass, the system's president, Harold Olson, said Powers exemplifies all that is best in a teacher.
"She makes each child feel special, while at the same time developing partnerships with parents to ensure the best possible educational experience for each child," Olson said.
Back in her classroom, her students were thrilled to learn about Powers' recognition.
"They all cheered and told me I was the 'Top Banana,'" Powers said with a smile. "Now, that's making the day count."

Leila writing a letter for Amnesty's global Write-a-thon on International Human Rights Day in Ottawa, Canada, 2004.
© Amnesty International
"We will stop blocking faxes when governments stop blocking human rights."
Amnesty International, 1993
Ordinary people can change – and sometimes even save – lives, simply by sending a letter.
Amnesty International's members have changed many people's lives over the last 50 years. They do it simply by sending out Urgent Action faxes and letters. The sheer volume of their correspondence has even forced some officials to plead for mercy.
In 1989, a Colombian lawyer was arrested at home by security forces. He managed to shout "Call Amnesty! Call Amnesty!" before he was taken away. Others in the house immediately contacted Amnesty International. Members of our Urgent Action network then reacted so quickly that their faxes protesting against the lawyer's detention arrived at the prison before he did. Amnesty International staff received a personal "thank you" from the lawyer after his release.
A prisoner of conscience in Indonesia, Tri Agus Susanto, found a unique use for the letters he received from Amnesty International members: "Prisoners with money and influence over the guards had more freedom. I had influence because of the 5,000 letters written about me, 1,000 of which I received. I counted the stamps rather than the days! I advertised the stamps in an Indonesian philatelist magazine and a stamp collector visited me to collect them. We agreed that he would exchange stamps with shuttlecocks because we played badminton in prison and shuttlecocks were always in short supply."
Amnesty International's members set up an Urgent Action stall equipped with five fax machines outside the United Nations World Conference on Human Rights in 1993. The stall attracted much attention, and by the third day there was already cause for celebration when a journalist was freed from prison in Peru. More than 25,000 faxes were sent out from the stall over the conference fortnight.
Meanwhile, Amnesty International's headquarters in London received a message from the Egyptian embassy. It read: "The Embassy of the Arab Republic of Egypt understands your concern with human rights affairs and your activities in connection with them. Between us working people, though, we have a request: would it be possible for you NOT to block our fax? Please send your letters by mail or some other way. We cannot use our fax machine due to your continuous engagement of it."
The response from Amnesty International was simple: "We will stop blocking faxes when governments stop blocking human rights."

I fell in love with this story, and I guess it might be because I read only one of the manga. The show sadly is not about Alucard though I would have loved it even more if it was. The story follows Seras Victoria who in my mind is only there because the watcher needs some details that need to be explained to her and it's just a way to introduce us into the Hellsing world. I feel we take way to much time though on watching her deal with being turned into a vampire and not enough of the action. How the sequel, Hellsing Ultimate, looks like it has more story even though it was created by three or four different studios' is beyond my comprehension but I believe it has something to do with Gonzo... (Several rants about Gonzo)
Going back to the story, I love the interaction between Integra and Alucard but they seem so small and not a lot for something that should be all about them. I feel that Alucard loves to pick on Integra as much as possible and keeps bringing up being turned into a vampire just to string her along and to get back at her Grandfather who sealed him away. We never actually get the information in this show and it took me going out of my way and looking it up to actually know but yes, Alucard is Dracula and not the son of Dracula like the Castlevania story lines. For a while, I thought it was the son of because I could never see Dracula staying with the family no matter what but… he does.
Now the story line revolves around strange chips in the body that turn people vampires… wait a minute… where was this in the manga?! I read at least the first book and have heard many people like Arkada talk about these and I have heard nothing about the chips being part of the story. There is also a character that doesn't show up in the manga and they never talk about him much. So when I wanted to know more about this guy… I found pretty much nothing. I looked on Wikipedia and a few other sites and found nothing about him except that he was supposedly the person that the chips were made from… question mark.
The animation… well this is studio Gonzo so lets just say its half par. Some of the battles are done alright though much of it is done with speed lines, still shots of shooting, and sometimes a little shadow play. I know I love this show but let's face it, the animation is crap. If it wasn't for the story and voices, I would have hated it I think.
The Voices are pretty good in the English and I would actually watch the show in English just for one voice, Crispin Freeman is the voice of Alucard; and as matter of fact, he is Extremely good at it. He has a voice that much like Vic Mignogna, makes most girls swoon over and him playing a smooth vampire with a bad boy glare would have anyone wanting him to take a bite out of them… except for the Twilight fan girls who lord knows how many would bug me about how Alucard doesn't 'sparkle' (Can I roll my eyes at you now?) But the other voices are actually up to par with Crispin's, except for some side characters who don't last more than one episode. Now when we do look at sub verses dub in this, you have to remember that this is set in good old England and not in Japan and so from my perspective, the English works much better then the Japanese, same for a lot of others. That's because most of the time, Japanese people have a strange idea of just how western countries sound or act. The same goes for English going to Japanese, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

IBM and Harvard University have announced plans to deploy the largest Blue Gene supercomputer in American academia.
The CrimsonGridBGL, would rank among the 50 fastest supercomputers, according to IBM, which cited statistics from the TOP500 Supercomputer Sites. At its peak, the supercomputer can perform 11 trillion floating point calculations per second (teraflops), according to IBM.
Faculty and researchers from Harvard University 's Division of Engineering and Applied Sciences (DEAS), will deploy the computer for a variety of studies, including those focusing on cells, the circulatory system and the heart, computer systems, integrated circuits and the formation of galaxies. It is also likely to help university departments analyze financial risk and epidemiology.
The Blue Gene system packs 4,096 PowerPC processors into two racks and takes up less than three-square meters. It uses a standard MPI foundation to allow calculations of complex problems simultaneously among thousands of processors and connections. It will extend the Crimson Grid, which IBM and Harvard established in 2003 for research and data sharing in life sciences, engineering and applied sciences.
Jayanta Sircar, CIO at DEAS and director of the Crimson Grid Project, said the system would result in a five-fold increase in the ability to handle multiple projects at once.
"The existing grid infrastructure, which you can think of as an entry point to accessing the Blue Gene system, will provide a consistent and integrated high speed network for managing workflow," Sircar said through a prepared statement.
"Increasingly sophisticated computational tools and mutually-reinforcing industry collaborations are instrumental to the success and advancement of research across all areas," Venkatesh Narayanamurti, dean of Engineering and Applied Sciences at Harvard, said through a prepared statement. "The new system comes at an ideal time for us and compliments the University's plans to dramatically increase its investments in science and engineering."

The reserve Bank of India (RBI) has indicated that its syand pon monetary policy will depend on the level of oil prices in the international markets and the domestic economic growth rates.
RBI's deputy governor Subir Gokarn said that the monetary stance will be dependent on the fiscal deficit of the country. He was speaking in an interaction with the media after the finance minister presented the budget to the parliament.
"There are other things going on. There are oil prices, there is the growth story. All of these things will be taken into consideration when we make a decision on what we will or will not do on 17th of April," said Gokarn.
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has passed the day of its mid-quarter review without reducing its key interest rates over renewed inflationary pressures. The central bank kept its repo rate unchanged at 8.5 percent during its mid-quarter review even as most were expecting it to reduce the rate to boost the slowing economic growth in the country. The cash reserve ratio was also kept at 4.75 percent following a reduction by 75 basis points on Friday.
The decision to keep the rates unchanged comes a day after the official data showed that India's wholesale-price index, which is the measure for inflation, rose 6.95 percent in the month of February.
The government is aiming to keep the fiscal deficit at 5.1% of gross domestic product (GDP) for 2012/13 compared to
India has set a fiscal deficit target of 5.1% of gross domestic product (GDP) for 2012/135.9% for this fiscal year. It aims to borrow upto Rs 5.7 trillion for 2012/13 compared with Rs 5.1 trillion in this year.

357, with federal 125gr jhp for human defense. 44 fmj for animal defense.
None of the above, bostonscottkelly. Look into a S&W .500 Magnum. It'll put that exclamation point behind the DRT that you're obviously looking for. Triggerjob, all this talk about "bullits" is making me lust after a Python like the one McQueen carried.
Go with the .357.
Ride, Shoot Straight, and Speak the Truth.
Heavy jacked ammunition is chosen for deep penetration on heavy or dangerous game. Hollow points etc. fail to penetrate rib bones etc. and do not reach vital organs.
An FMJ and HP in .44 magnum are not all that different when they hit an animal because the sheer energy flattens both pretty well although you will get a slight deeper penetration with an FMJ, i'd feel comfortable with both to defend against any animal EXCEPT great bears (brown, grizzly, kodiak etc), in that case you definitely need hardcast ammo that will not flatten and ricochet off a rib because their ribs are about as tough as soft body armor.
S&W 915 9mm Mossberg 500 Mariner 12ga 1945 Win 94 Ruger MKIII 22/45 4" Savage MK II Ruger SP101 .357 Kung-Fu Moves
I own mutiples of both. I sometimes carry a 4 inch 629 loaded with heavy 44 specials. There is only one load that has been uncomfortable for me to shoot. That was a full on mag load with 310 XTP that I loaded up for hunting. I was shooting it out of a 7 1/2 inch New Super Blackhawk. That was punishing. But when I shoot a 240 grain full powered magnum it is no problem. I can shoot 50 of those without a problem. I also have an older 6 inch 586. That is a 357. I shoot that with the most powerful load with no problem at all. There is no comparison between 357 and 44 mag. It is like comparing a VW Bug with a Wells Fargo Armored Truck! Anyone that doesn't think so has never shot a 310 grain load. If you decide to buy a 44 you should invest is a simple reloading kit. You could get a Lee single stage press and all the stuff you need to get started for a minimal amount. Then you could experiment with different loads. If you shoot a lot of 44 mag, the equipment will pay for itself pretty fast. The same thing goes for 45 Colt. Those can be expensive to buy new. Full powered stuff will run close to $1 a shot. I am not talking about the soft shooting cowboy loads.
Romans 1:16 I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile.
The Founders DID anticipate that arms technology would advance, that's why the 2nd amendment doesn't say "the right to keep and bear a musket".......

We just bought a house and the Thermador range hood which is about 20 years old isnot working:Model Number says H5530-03. The handyman says the blower motor is not working( VR600)..I called thermador and they say none of the blowers they carry today will work for that model of the vent..arrrrgghhh!..This is an external mounted vent on the roof...and i like to keep it that way,..am i better off just buying a new hood, or should i get another service guy to see if he can repair the blower..I aksed Thermador if the VT630D blower will work..but they said no ..so..what are my choices for hoods 1)Thermador 2)Viking 3)BEST??.. We just bought a house so dont have too much money to splurge..but we cook a lot of spicy food, and especially love our fishes..so a powerful hood is a must and also the kitchen is a open floor plan where we will be watching TV..so quietness of the hood would be very important..so plaese please ..put me out of this misery and help me choose!!..Thankyou all..I think this site trumps facebook as a new homeowner :)))) |
Follow-Up Postings:
Sears has a diagram with all the parts listed in link. I would call to see if the motor is available. It appears to be a single speed 600 cfm motor. Nothing made today is compatible. If motor is not available you need a new hood or have somebody that really knows their stuff replace the blower,the control module, and the wiring in between. Cheapest would probably be fantech quietest is abbaka. You say a powerful hood is a must and low noise is very important. Then you don't have too much money. Powerful + quiet = expensive But if you want new hood recs what size hood are you looking at? Maybe we can find a deal on a good one? |

Most people buy their hood and blower as a package, but you can probably buy a Best/Broan external blower and have a professional electrician rewire to the hood. Check with Broan to see if they have a blower that will work with the controls on your existing hood. |

Here's a link which may help you find parts to your VR-600. I had a VR-1000 before remodel which was still sucking great after forty years. As I understand it, the bearings can go first on these. |

You might have systemic communication and control issues (wiring, control, etc.) or you might have motor issues (bearings, rotors, etc.).. or both. Has that been determined? A regular electrician with a multimeter could probably tell that. Either may be fixable, but will require patience and unususal expertise to do so. The motor, in particular may need to be removed and sent to a specialized shop. Do you have any idea if the system, in perfect working order, would satisfy your powerful but quiet requirements? Do you like the exterior styling of the vent hood? These are all questions to answer before tracking down repairs. Or they may demand that you track down repairs as nothing else will do. Your call. L. |
Thankyou all!..I just measured and we have a 30 inch hood..at this point in time i am leaning toward buying a new hood with external blower..can you guys suggest a good brand for around 2000$ max.. |
There is very little in your prices range with 30" size and external blower. There is one Broan and one Zephyr maybe an Imperial. These are 24" D the minimum I would recommend for serious cooking. There is the Thermador Masterpiece which is 23 1/8 D in your price range. Best is Broan's premium line but only comes in 36" with exterior blower. This would also give you better capture area for more effective venting. Then there are the more expensive made to order hoods like Prestige and Modern-Aire. If you were able ( no upper cabinets near range) and willing to go to 36" there would be a lot more options. |

I bought my Broan E60E36SS 36" hood, external 600CFM blower, and Fantech duct silencer for $1158 total. The blower was about 50% off, but new, on eBay (where there is a new one right now for $195). Add on another $100 or so for more duct and another duct damper. I have about 15' of 10" duct. This doesn't include installation cost, which was part of my major remodel cost. If the hood itself is okay, I would look into replacing just the |

Watch the Blizzard of 2015 [LIVE VIDEO]
Because we New Yorkers have never seen snow, (sarcastic laugh,) I've decided to post a live coverage video of the blizzard in New York City.
Because we New Yorkers have never seen snow, (sarcastic laugh,) I've decided to post a live coverage video of the blizzard in New York City.
The blizzard slamming the east coast is closing airports, subways, train stations and roads. Store shelves are bare as everyone stocked up on bread, milk, toilet paper and of course beer. Soup and coffee sales are skyrocketing as people try to stay warm.
Utica received a dose of positive national and international attention the past couple of days because the AHL All-star Game at the Memorial Auditorium was broadcast to 100 million homes.
The blizzard hitting the northeast is playing out in real-time in Manhattan on the Times Square Earth Cam.
When the actors of 'Birdman' went up to receive their SAG Award, who knew they'd be Internet gold the next day?
For a while, the party line on the possibility of an 'Iron Man 4' was that it was not going to happen. And, at least technically, that's still true—because instead Robert Downey Jr. is co-starring 'Captain America: Civil War,' where his Tony Stark and Chris Evans' Steve Rogers will get into an epic superhero tussle.
Britney Spears has been back in the studio working on her follow-up to 2013's 'Britney Jean.' But it looks like an unheard track has just made it onto the web.
Sam Smith will now be paying Tom Petty royalties on his hit song "Stay with Me," along with adding Tom Petty and his collaborator, Jeff Lynne to the song credits.

Patriots Take Out UNC Wilmington, 2-1, In Double OT
Oct. 17, 2003 WILMINGTON, N.C. - Sophomore striker Steve Alabi drilled a 10-yard rocket into the left side of the net with 2:27 remaining in the second overtime period to lift George Mason over UNC Wilmington, 2-1, in Colonial Athletic Association men's soccer Friday night at the UNCW Soccer Stadium. The Patriots, playing their fifth overtime contest in the last six outings, improved to 8-3-4 overall and 3-0-2 in the CAA with the victory and remained unbeaten in their last seven contests (4-0-3). The Seahawks dropped their third straight to fall to 8-5-1 and 2-3-0. With time winding down in the second overtime, Alabi, the CAA's top goal scorer, broke the stalemate at the 107:33 mark. Matt Mendy sent the ball into the box from the right side, Damian O'Rourke headed it down and Alabi delivered the game winner for his league-leading 10th goal of the campaign. UNCW opened the scoring at 24:07 when sophomore forward Sam Leger took a volley from the middle and one-touched the ball past GMU goalkeeper John O'Hara. Adam Currey and Russell Bienias were credited with assists on the goal. The Patriots answered, however, at 35:32 when O'Rourke took a cross from Alabi on the right side and knotted the score at 1-all. GMU outshot UNCW, 11-8, and had nine corner kicks on the night. O'Hara wound up with three saves, while Seahawk goalie Brad Knighton collected five saves. The Patriots battle Virginia Commonwealth Sunday at 1 p.m. in Richmond, Va., while the Seahawks entertain James Madison on Sunday at 2 p.m. Match Summary

Different assumptions (392 comments)
Sure, if you *cap* the population at 150 during transit, and don't allow multiple pairings within the same generation of course you're going to kill the genetic diversity.
However, if instead of a generational ship we were talking about hibernation until arrival, 150 is enough to begin a genetically viable colony. How do you avoid the risk of inbreeding? Simple: no cap on the number of children, but no full siblings allowed. Encourage as many different genetic pairings as possible.
Re:The saddest thing (328 comments)
2. Some people from the New Mexico county in which Clyde Tombaugh (the tireless discover of said celestial body) was born wanted to honor him, in defiance of the slithy toves and slimy weasels that would deprive him of his hard-earned recognition. I'm not going to provide a link you probably won't follow anyway, but you might find that he deduced the presence of an unseen planet from perturbations of Neptune's orbit and found the tiny pinprick of light only after weeks of staring into "blink-comparators" which alternate views of the same patch of sky taken over an interval.
Pluto is not responsible for the perturbations in Neptune's orbit. Tombaugh was wrong. And how hard he worked has exactly what the hell to do with whether it's a planet or not? Deprive him of his recognition? Pluto should have never been declared a planet in the first place, and the only reason it was considered so was due to the PR groundwork laid by Percival Lowell, who was a far better showman than he was a scientist.
What is your solution on how to deal with the questions raised by Sedna and Xena? Ignore them, make them all planets, what?
So far so good...I've lost 8 pounds so far, and it's only been a week. Granted, I've got plenty to lose, so it's comparable to a skinny person losing a 1/2 pound.
The pills I'm using leave a weird aftertaste in mouth, like I stood to close to a campfire a few days back. It's not terrible, but it's one of a few side effects I've noticed.
I'm beginning to grow quite fond of the taste of Diet Mountain Dew. (Yeah, keep telling yourself that buddy.)
The daily workouts have been getting easier, so I've increased the resistance on the stationary bike. I get to really catch up on my reading. Just finished Clade. It was a good book, but it bogged down sometimes in techno-bio-future-speak.
That's it for now. I'll try to write in here more often, every 2 or 3 days.
Here we get into the nitty-gritty of my weight loss plan. It all boils down to this very complicated statement: less input, more output equals weight loss.
Part 1: Reducing Energy Input
a. Replace all sodas with diet versions.
b. Replace 2 meals a day with either a Slim-Fast or Lean-Pocket
c. Eat a regular third meal, either lunch or dinner.
d. Reduce portion sizes
e. Stop eating when no longer hungry, not when full.
f. Take diet supplements to ensure a full supply of vital nutrients and to reduce appetite.
Part 2: Increasing Energy Output
a. Exercise every day
b. Take diet supplements to increase metabolism
c. Attempt to keep at least 1 part of body in constant motion when sitting or laying
d. Park at the far end of the parking lot each morning.
e. Engage in at least 1 outdoor activity each weekend.
f. Play racquetball twice a week with fiancee.
I'll go into more details with each of these steps as the days go by. This plan is obviously a work in progress and will be modified as necessary to achieve objectives.
Todays summary:
Breakfast: 1 Strawberry Slim Fast (I like these, they taste like the leftover milk from a bowl of captain crunch)
Lunch: 1 Pepperoni Lean-Pocket
Dinner: Burger on Sourdough with Cheese. Only ate half of the burger. Had fries as well. Ordered diet coke, despite the tempting offer of Mountain Dew. Curse you Dew! You'll be downfall yet.
Diet Supplements: 2 taken in the morning, 2 in the afternoon. Lipo 6, which is no longer sold in the States due to the ban on ephedra.
Exercise: 25 minutes on stationary bike. 3 sets of 20 on leg curls, 3 sets of 20 on bench press. Keeping the weight low with fast reps to increase stamina and endurance.
Well, the day has come. Time to begin my diet. Why you ask? I'm getting married in a few months, that's why, and I don't want to look like a stuff sausage standing next to my lovely bride-to-be. Throw in a few morsels of self-loathing, and top with health reasons, stir and serve cold, to enhance the flavor, and you've got some damn good reasons for me to get off my ass. To start with, a bit of backstory:
I used to be...well not skinny, but not overweight either. I played football, wrestled and ran track in high school. After high school I was accepted into the US Naval Academy. Staying in shape there was not a problem. *Really* not a problem. Everything was going hunky-dory until the summber between my first and second year (plebe and youngster years). That's when I ran into a problem in the form of a 14-foot Boston Whaler and its rapidly spinning prop.
We were doing an exercise called Cast and Retrieve, something Navy SEALs do on a regular basis. Basically you're floating in the water and the boat drives alongside, you stick your arm into a rubber hoop and are pulled into the boat. This way the boat doesn't have to slow down and become a sitting duck while they retrieve SEALs from the water. Works pretty good as long as the boat doesn't drive right over the top of you. Which is what happened to yours truly. Did a nasty number on my right foot and lower leg. I had to be airlifted to the Baltimore Trauma Center, one of the best trauma centers in the world. Thankfully they were able to save my leg, after 4 surgeries.
Recovery was long and basically a pain in the ass. The walking cast they gave me had to stay on for 5 months. After my youngster year ended and I still hadn't fully healed, I had a decision to make. Finish out my 4 years at the Academy and then take up a desk job for the next 5 (minimum service obligation for academy grads), or resign from the service. I decided that spending 5 years as a Supply Clerk was not going to be my cup of tea, and tendered my resignation. Since then I've been working in IT, and now I'm running a small computer store.
I'm pretty happy with how my life has turned out so far. But this injury has continued to plague me. Walking long distances or running pose quite a problem. And I've let that effect me. For the last 3 years my lifestyle has become increasingly sedentary, and my weight has ballooned out of control.
I'm going to change all that, starting right now. And anyone who reads this will be my witness. Tomorrow, I'll fill in some more information on the technical details of my mass re-structuring.

anyone? what about green mountain?
Green mountain makes good black powder and .22 barrels. Imagine they would make a decent AK barrel if they offer one.
From what I understand Green Mountain makes the barrels for Century's AK's that they put together.
Here is a good barrel that is pressed in. It is hammer forged & chrome lined just like the orignal barrels.http://armsofamerica.com/newromanianakhammerforgedchromelinedbarrel762x39.a spx

The gas port hole can be drilled by a hand drill after the gas block is pinned in place with a long gas port drill bit.http://ak-builder.com/index.php?dispatch=products.view&product_id=30051 The .223 & the 5.45 barrels need to be drilled first then assembled because the gas port is 90° to the bore & you can't drill through the gas block. If you have or buy one of these small drill presses you have everything you need for drilling & reaming the block mounting pins.http://www.harborfreight.com/5-speed-bench-drill-press-60238.html The hand guard notch I cut with a dremel & then finished it with a round hand file.

- Package
Just like the Albatron motherboard, the package and the box here is not too exciting. While the package of the motherboard won't bother some people, others do prefer to get all those little extras that we see from companies like DFI and Chaintech.
The reduced package helps keeps cost down and if you have just forked out a fortune for your new Athlon 64 processor, you might be able to save a few dollars by buying one of the cheaper motherboards that simply bring you the latest chipset for Athlon 64 computing.
- Motherboard and Layout
When looking at the 8HDA3 motherboard you notice the trademark green PCB that EPoX have been using for quite some time. Having a look at the motherboard the first thing you might notice is that the motherboard only comes with two DIMM slots. You may also notice that the Northbridge is in quite a different position then you are used to and comes only with passive cooling, like the Albatron motherboard.
The motherboard uses a 5 PCI / 1 AGP layout which is not bad and while it contains one less PCI slot than the Albatron motherboard, EPoX have chosen to move their first PCI slot away from the AGP slot. If you have a video card that normally hangs over the first PCI slot (like nVidia's GeForce FX 5900 or 5950), you don't have to worry about losing it with this design.
Towards the bottom right we have the Parallel ATA ports as well as the Serial ATA ports hidden away. Just between these you find the EPoX debugging utility which displays a number which corresponds to an error which is listed in the manual. This has been used by EPoX for quite a while now and is an excellent feature that really expands upon the normal error beeps.
- IO Ports
The 8HDA3 comes with everything you need including 4 X USB 2.0 ports and onboard networking. The motherboard also comes with the usual PS2 and COM ports, as you would expect. There isn't much extra when it comes to the I/O ports and while this doesn't make it feature packed it does come with what you need.
