Most reported 1990 Toyota Pickup problems
Power Steering Leak
Engine Won't Crank Due To Starter
If the vehicle will not crank over, the most common problem is the starter, which tend to fail at about 100,00-125,000 miles. Sometimes it is only the starter solenoid contacts, but often the complete starter (including solenoid) needs to be replaced.
Rattling Noise From Front of Engine
The timing chain can develop a rattling noise caused by failing timing chain guides. This is often due to extended mileage intervals between oil changes that allows the oil to become dirty and abrasive which wears away the timing chain guides until they fail. The timing chain and guides should be inspected at each valve adjustment, otherwise serious engine damage may result.
Replace ignition key by 100,000 miles
Stalling Due to Primary Wiring Harness Rubbing Through Ignition Coil Wire Insulation
The Ignition Coil wire insulation is often rubbed through by the Primary wiring harness which will cause a stalling/no-start condition. The coil wire will need to be replaced and the primary harness will need to be repaired and re-routed.
Check Engine Light Due to Restricted EGR System
The EGR System tends to get restricted or blocked with carbon after 100,000- 125,000 miles which will cause an emissions test failure for NOX. If the EGR system is equipped with an EGR temperature sensor it will trigger a Check Engine Light for improper EGR flow. The repair is to clean out the EGR passages and the EGR Temperature sensor. Our technicians tell this repair is pretty straight forward and takes about 1-1.5 hours. It is also wise to verify the EGR system components i.e. the Transducer, EGR Valve and VSV Solenoid at this time.
Replace Oxygen Sensor When Servicing EGR System
Over the time the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system may become plugged with debris, the oxygen sensor may also be getting slow or 'lazy' around this time. When servicing or cleaning the EGR system, it is a good idea to replace the oxygen sensor because it works in tandem with the EGR system.
Bleed rear level sensor for correct rear brake operation
Front Brake Rotor Wear Can Cause Pulsations
Front brake rotors can wear causing a pulsation felt in the brake pedal. Our technicians often recommend replacement of the front rotors and brake pads as the best option to correct this condition.
Service AC system at 150,000 miles or every two to three years
Usually by 150,000 miles the AC system will need some attention, especially in climates where it is used often. Our technicians tell us that it is best to service the AC system every 2-3 years. This keeps the moisture in the system at a minimum which extends the life of the components
Input Shaft Seal to the Steering Gear May Leak
At higher mileages (125,000-150,000) the input shaft seal to the power steering gear may leak. It is recommended to replace the steering gear with a quality rebuilt or new unit rather than attempt to re-seal the original unit.
Automatic Transmission May Not Shift Correctly at High Mileages
At higher mileages, (125,000-150,000) the automatic transmission may not shift correctly. This can be caused by the throttle position sensor being out of adjustment or a shift solenoid needing to be replaced. Typically the transmission does not need to be completely overhauled.

1. Junior Diplomacy
A young prince has much to learn. Swordsmanship and fair speech. The skill of reading and the art of riding. The history of a city and a kingdom (or two). How to lead, who to trust.
But today he is on holiday in the garden of Gondor, lying on the grass and squishing mud between his toes in the stream running from the Steward's house. From above he sees the banner of the expected trade embassy come up the hillside, a black sun on a field of red. A tribe of Harad, he remembers, although he can't remember which. He knows he should return to clean up and be present for the greeting of the emissaries. He'd given poor Captain Gethron the slip hours ago, after all; but the wind is so soft and the sun is so warm, and it would be difficult to sneak into the house unnoticed.
He wakes to the murmur of the stream and the sound of footsteps, with a wave of such terrible certainty that he is in trouble. And indeed, at not twelve paces and closing is the Steward's heir, the silver circlet on his head reflecting the afternoon sun. Behind him walks what looks to be a very wrinkled, very colorful pillowcase, but as his vision sharpens he realizes that it is, in fact, a boy a little smaller than himself. "Found him at last!" Elboron shouts, thumping him on the shoulder. "In the best spot, too." He sits up, opens his mouth and can't quite find the apology he's looking for, but the Prince of Ithilien smiles broadly. "Young Lord Sekandar here expressed an interest in seeing more of our grounds, and since you're practically as knowledgeable as any of my rangers, 'Dar, I thought perhaps you might be so good as to show him?" Eldarion nods, his face flushed. It isn't a request. Feeling feebler than he ever has in his life, he watches the older man take long strides back towards the house, leaving him alone with a strange southron whose only visible facial feature are his eyes.
Both boys stare at each other for a long moment, Eldarion feeling his disgrace all the more for his bare feet and sailor's pants in comparison to this strange, solemn little person wrapped in great quantities of embroidered silk. An advantage of appearance, as the Steward would say. "Your name is 'Dar also?" the other asks, rolling his vowels, in a tone that suggests that one of the Dars is clearly superior. "Prince Eldarion Telcontar, son of the King," he says, raising his chin and trying to regain some of the majesty of the West, although after the words are out of his mouth he regrets not having used more titles. His father certainly has enough.
The Southron's black eyes flick from Eldarion to the stream and back again. "But the Prince Elboron called you 'Dar," he says in the same clipped, too-precise westron.
"Oh, well, yes, I go by 'Dar sometimes, even though it's not my proper name," he replies at last, baffled.
"I would not brook such insolence in a liegeman," the other says, as though he's offering advice. Before Eldarion can answer, the other makes a great show of turning, his robes swirling, and begins to troop with surprising speed toward the bank and the pines.
"Well, Elboron's my friend," Eldarion counters, jogging a little to keep up as they get closer to the trees and the rocky part of the bank. How the Southron can move so fast in such garb is beyond him; but it's sickeningly obvious that he's been put at a disadvantage. So much for all the many hours learning to craft a royal mien for diplomacy. "And anyway, he's already a captain and much bigger than I am. If I gave him grief for that, he'd probably just laugh right before he tossed me in a horse trough." Privately he doubts the Steward's heir would go that far. Elboron would surely find some quieter, yet far more devious, means of checking his pride.
But the Southron halts and turns to look at Eldarion again, and after a long pause, nods fiercely. "The strong do what they can, and the weak suffer what they must," he says, placing his hand over his chest in some kind of salute. "I…suppose," Eldarion replies, now convinced that this is the most bizarre conversation he's ever had, but he attempts a smile. "Is that a wise saying from," he struggles for a moment, and then finishes rather lamely, "the south?"
The other boy shakes his head, hugely, and it suddenly comes to Eldarion that gestures must be more important when one's expression can't be seen. "It is from a part of the story of the conqueror Ciryaher, and the brave defenders of Haradhur, which the An'kahl teaches us," he says. Suddenly he jumps at a loud screech, and almost trips over himself.
"Just the gulls," Eldarion quickly reaches out to help the boy regain his balance. He smiles again, to try to put him at ease. "They come up the river all the time."
"The An'kahl teaches us that Lord of Water transformed a prince into such a bird as he leapt from a cliff," Sekandar says, and it sounds oddly like a confession.
"Oh!" Eldarion brightens. "Ulmo did that to Elwing, too, after the destruction of Sirion."
"Is he among your heroes?" Sekandar's eyes widen, all poise forgotten. "Ours, that is, Amir Ghen was very valiant, the most valiant of men."
"Well, Elwing's a girl, but she and her husband Earendil are my favorites."
Very soon, the discovery of a terrible, duel plot by the sons of Feanor and the evil trickster Afrasiab requires them both to transform into gulls and aid Elwing's search for Earendil by chasing the flock to the Valinor on the other side of the stream. Then, of course, Earendil and Thorondor, the great syenah, have a dragon to slay, and by the time the red sun sets on the darkened battlefield, a total, if unfortunately muddy, victory is in place.
After six days, the embassy departs, neither side having achieved much of anything; and that evening the Steward invites the young Prince to his study to play chess. Just four moves in, Eldarion cannot escape the sense that he is being toyed with. Even his mother has lost to the Steward before, so he should have been routed instantly. But the game goes on, and the Steward begins to ask Eldarion about his adventures of the last week with Sekandar, and he himself speaks of the stubbornness and distrust that hampered the negotiations.
What I don't understand, sir," Eldarion asks, "is why, when we haven't ever moved to expand our borders, the Haradrim are still braced against an Imperial Gondor."
The Steward smiles, rocking a ruhk back and forth with his finger. "Unfortunately, my Prince, our history suggests one will come, even if it is not our intention now. Harad remembers the ship kings with less kindness than we do."
"True, sir, but in our recent history, we haven't done anything like that. We've even gone to war with them against Khand," he replies, moving his knight to take a pawn.
"You haven't done anything. Yet," the Steward says, taking the knight with his own. "And we've fought just as many border skirmishes against them as we have for them. But I've spent the better part of my life fighting here in Ithilien, not the least against Haradrim. Your new friend Sekandar's grandfather, the old Sekandar, rode with Black Serpent, and was killed by King Theoden and his men, you know."
"I didn't," Eldarion says, unsure both of if he would have been better off not knowing that and if he ought to play his queen.
"I would find it rather extraordinary," says the Steward, "if a son could break bread with the daughter of his father's killer, in the land that his father died in, and not feel at least some revulsion or distrust. It would be just as extraordinary if a man who saw too many of his friends die at the hands of an invader did not at least contemplate being less fair than he might be to those people, when they needed something of his."
"Then, if we can't move past, well, the past, what's the point of any of it?" Eldarion asks, positioning his wizard to take the knight.
Faramir smiles, pauses for a moment, and then captures Eldarion's wizard with his ruhk. "We can only hope that by continuing to talk to each other we are able to forge new ties, less burdened by the grief of the past."
Looking down onto a much less populated chessboard and seeing a check in three, Eldarion suddenly remembers that it was the Steward who'd suggested he find a cool spot down by the stream, on a day that hot.

first clue
no one is as stupid as balmer makes out to be
IS it possible that everyone on this thread is mistaken about balmer and MS .?
IS it possible that the idiotic back and forth chit chat going here and on the rest of the markets IS EXACTLY WhaT BALMER WANTS .
IS it possible that the stupid money wasting LAPTOP TV ADS And all that balmer spews forth is intended solely to stir the pot and too mis-direct us from the real TRUTH .
Is it possible balmer is a genius ?
IS it possible that every word balmer and MS has ever spoken is false and misleading self serving lies truths and 1/2 truths . ?
IS it possible the apple div at MS is its highest profit maker ever.
Why is this so clear to me .
a CLUE FOR YOU ALL DUNDER HEADS
Why does MS make ads that attack on of its best clients ??
And those same ads actually infer just the opposite to have an effect of attacking dell and friends ??
In part two i will supply the answers and a one word conclusion
As Steven Wright once asked:
What if there were no hypothetical questions?

Gplv3 is less free than GPLv2. Plus overly complex. And while the v2 has been proven by courts, GPLv3 has not.
So there are good reasons not to use GPLv3.
Unlike gpl2, gpl3 was partially authored by lawyers and was subject to a very intense public vetting. There's no reason to suspect it won't stand up in court. Besides, the worst that can happen is that the prosecuting party loses their license to use the code. So yes, that argument is FUD, just like it was used against gpl2 before it went to court.
As for freedom, yes, you are more free to open source code and then sue anyone who uses the code for patent infringement. Congrats, if that is a desirable outcome.
That doesn't prevent me from liking or contributing to open source though. Unlike RMS I don't see anything morally wrong with proprietary code, I do however see alot morally wrong with the lock-in tendencies which sadly often accompany proprietary code.
The enthusiasm Michael has for Valve, and the hate he has for RMS almost make me feel like he is being bought by some corporate interest.
Why is it so hard to understand that in the long term these silly licensing disputes might prevent adoption, but it also ensures that corporations cannot easily just do their R&D on the public and pick up the fruits and reap all the money like BSD license is designed to.
Moving to more Freedom means puting more Restriction on the antonym.
GPL2 is less Free, as in "containing more ways to Restrict Freedoms".
GPL3 is more Free as in "adding more Restrictions on removing Freedoms".
You can also read it as: GPL3 is less Free as in "it is more restrictive to "have more Restrictions on removing Freedoms".
But hold on, a Freedom to "add a Restriction" is NOT Freedom, but is freedom to Restrict.

I hope this will help Eyefinity setups also, just set mine up with radeon/mesa/xrandr combined framebuffer (5888x1152 O_O)
We are talking about different things. I was referring to the idea of using a faux FS method. The performance hit I am referring to is this.
Anytime you upscale a graphic it eats performance because it has to scale and redraw, probably at least bicubic so it doesn't look like crap. FWIG is that your resolution would not change but use a buffer that pretends to be a fullscale window at say 1600x900 then upscales it to your native 1920x1080 (at fullscreen) leaving your desktop alone. My AMD card sorta does this at least to the monitor, it scales in GPU so the monitor doesn't really change resolutions, not that useful actually.
"Bad performance wise"? WTF are you smo.... oh for games, yeah that.
I hope this will help Eyefinity setups also, just set mine up with radeon/mesa/xrandr combined framebuffer (5888x1152 O_O)
Does "full screen" mean "full screen" or "full desktop"?
Inquiring minds with multiple screens want to know
Not even my computer will give me a straight answer, different programs behave differently
QFT. Try playing a combat flight sim in Window mode using a mouse.Windowed mode for many games, makes the game .... worse. Any game with scrolling (rts, strategy, anything with a scene bigger than the window.), menus that pop up when the cursor is at the edge of the screen (Sim games, theme hospital, etc) and any game with ui elements near the minimize and exit buttons on the window(you can accidently minimize and exit) would have serious issues with being played in a windowed mode. Not to mention its ugly (immersion matters!). Windowed mode is not an option for most games.

If you have multiple monitors and they aren't the same size, there is a "blank spot" on your desktop that won't appear on either screen.
Some programs are smart about this, they don't display stuff in the part you can't see
and then there are programs that have no idea, they just use the whole desktop rectangle and they are oblivious to the fact that you can't see everything.
Honestly I think "full screen" sucks on every platform. My computer is not an Apple II, it can run more than one program at once. There should be a "virtual full screen" that may or may not be the actual full screen. This way I can full-screen a program that wants to be full-screen and I can still get to other stuff on my desktop. I can do this now with vmware but it would be nice if I didn't have to use a virtual machine.

Guests include Fordham Professors Dr. Jay Wade, Dr. Philip Sicker, and Dr. John Davenport.


text: What wanton destruction! Why?The Shapleigh Board of Selectmen has been informed that a cemetery in the woods off the Pitts Road has been vandalized. The headstones of folks who had been buried there many years ago have been snapped off at ground level. Also, a monument between four and five feet tall was toppled over.Needless to say, when this sad news was given to Ron Rivard, Shapleigh's cemetery superintendent, he could only shake his head.One of the stones belongs to a veteran whose grave is flagged in remembrance and appreciation of his efforts many years ago when he fought for the freedoms we have today.TAX COMMITMENT ALMOST ALL COLLECTEDTax Collector Joanne Rankin has indicated that 94 percent of the town's total tax commitment for 2012 has been paid by the property owners in Shapleigh.Thank you all for helping Shapleigh to be able to pay its bills in a timely fashion and to end up the year in the black once again.BUDGET PROCESS IS UNDER WAYTown Hall Office Clerk Carole Collins has prepared loose-leaf budget books for members of the Shapleigh Budget Committee and the Shapleigh Board of Selectmen.The budget committee will soon be setting up meetings for reviewing the proposed budgets of town department heads and social service agencies. Interviews will be held, questions asked, explanations given, and more will be done before the budget committee makes its final recommendations to the voters on the articles which will appear in the annual town meeting warrant. Selectmen currently are working on the General Government budget, which will become a part of the deliberation process as well and subject to the same scrutiny by the budget committee as all others.NEW GENERATOR INSTALLEDA new Generac generator was installed recently at the Public Safety Building to replace the former generator, which was labor-intensive as far as having to go to the station repeatedly to add fuel. The new generator is fueled by propane, so it is much more efficient.The board of selectmen signed a 5-year maintenance contract for the Generac, which includes annual preventive maintenance.CHECKING IN WITH THE CODE OFFICERShapleigh Code Enforcement Officer Steve McDonough has issued permits to the following individuals for the projects.David L. Massanari, Map 20, Lot 12, of Shapleigh Corner Road, to build a 22-foot by 27-foot single-story garage with attic storage, and wall studs no greater than 10 feet;Richard Levesque, Map 30, Lot 41, of Hawthorne Road on Square Pond, to replace the existing camp with a new 28-foot by 28-foot one, using all of the allowed 30-percent expansion, with a maximum building height of no more than 35 feet to be built to code;David K. Bridges, Map 16, Lot 39, of Cattail Loop on the Lower Mousam, to replace an existing camp with a new camp;William Turgeon, Map 16, Lot 40, of Cattail Lop on the Lower Mousam, to pour a new foundation under the existing camp, with a 30-percent expansion for a 12-foot by 12-foot addition and a 12-foot by 14-foot deck;Vincent Srebnick, Map 30, Lot 43, of Hemlock Road on Square Pond, to bring in up to 10 yards of earth in the shore land zone, after the fact;Gerald Richard, Map 32, Lot 8, of Dahlia Road on Square Pond, to cut two trees within 100 feet of the water, with 4 trees to be replanted in the same general area, and the stumps to remain in place;Daniel Vetesse, Map 42, Lot 28C, of Emily Lane on Pine Springs Lake, to cut 6 trees per plan, with the tree closest to the lake to be replaced with one tree in the same general location, and the stump to remain in place.William Coye, Map 36, Lot 15, of Indian Village Road on Square Pond, to build a 14-foot by 28-foot addition;Roger Houle, Map 12, Lot 34-1, of Newfield Road, to place a 4-foot by 8-foot sign that will not obstruct the line of sight of traffic; andJoseph Lavoie, Map 44, Lot 32, of Silver Lake Road on Silver Lake, to cut one large pine, with the stump to remain in place, and 4 trees to be replanted in same general area.The declared value of the above improvement projects is $375,000.SELECTMEN APPROVE GENERAL ASSISTANCE ORDINANCESelectmen held a public hearing on Tuesday, Oct. 30, on the revised General Assistance Ordinance.The public had no comments, and the selectmen unanimously enacted the ordinance as presented.Modifications were made to housing, food, and others as proposed by the Department of Health and Human Services and recommended by the Maine Municipal Association.'SANDY' SPARES SHAPLEIGHHurricane Sandy, which ravaged most of the eastern coast, largely spared Shapleigh. The town did experience downed trees, a loss of power, and some road washouts. Many folks were without power for several days.Our hearts go out to those communities in New Jersey and New York, where the damage sustained equaled that of total destruction in many areas.NEW BOOKS!The Shapleigh Community Library now has these books to offer:Fiction: "Hard Country," by M. McGarrity; "Right-Hand Shore'," by B. Tilghman; "Faith Bass Darling's Last Garage," by Lynda Rutledge; "Goodbye for Now," by Laurie Frankel; "Last Summer," by D.

The city of Yonkers provides its residents with plenty of excitement and amenities, as it is the fourth largest city in the state of New York. Situated just outside New York City, Yonkers has plenty to offer those wanting to experience life in the big city.
There are Yonkers apartments for rent across the city in various neighborhoods.
Yonkers saw its first settlers in 1640, when a Dutch immigrant received a land grant and used it to construct a saw mill where the Hudson and Nepperhan Rivers met. Its unique name is a variation of the original Dutch words used to describe the area. This location, a major trade route, would result in Yonkers becoming an important trading hub in the region. Even though Yonkers was sparsely populated during the 1700s, it developed into a thriving community as businesses and settlers relocated there to take advantage of the waterways for trade.
During the 1800s, companies in Yonkers developed at a rapid pace. Cotton factories, stone mills, carpet manufacturers and the sugar industry made the city an easy place for residents to find work. As the community developed, it added modern amenities for its residents, including the world's first elevated mass transportation system.
Yonkers officially became a city in 1872, and was the first community in Westchester County to receive a city charter. It has remained prosperous since then and is currently home to nearly 200,000 residents. With its close proximity to NYC and a well-developed business community, Yonkers has become the ideal city for entrepreneurs and families.
Yonkers is home to Westchester Community College, which aims to be more than the county's two-year junior college. The school, which has been a part of the community since 1946, educates 12,000 students. Pupils have more than 60 degree and certificate programs to choose from, and, with multiple sports teams, it's easy for students to get involved on campus. Students seeking a four-year university may find that Sarah Lawrence College is right for them. This liberal arts institution has a unique academic structure through which pupils can earn an undergraduate or graduate degree. With a small student population, Sarah Lawrence College is able to provide attendees with individual attention and assistance.
Just a few minutes from Yonkers is Concordia College, a school with a diverse student population and a commitment to academic excellence. With an exciting campus life, multiple degree programs and a fantastic location, Concordia offers pupils amenities not available at some other schools.
Yonkers isn't just full of college students - the city has a business district that is alive and well. Many residents are employed throughout Westchester County, and some of the area's largest employers include IBM, Westchester Medical Center, PepsiCo, Verizon, White Plains Hospital and Consolidated Edison.
Apartments in Yonkers are plentiful, and new residents shouldn't have a problem finding a place to suit their needs. Renters can expect their monthly rent to be somewhere between $1,000 and $2,000. The median gross monthly rent in the area was $1,145, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
Yonkers can be an adjustment for some, as the cost of living may be higher than new residents are accustomed to. However, because of the large business district, proximity to NYC and high quality of life in Yonkers, some may find the expense worthwhile.
One of the many local attractions in Yonkers is the Hudson River Museum. This museum was founded in 1919, and has been educating the community since then. With frequent art exhibitions, a planetarium and a focus on art and science, the museum offers residents opportunities to learn something new with each visit. The museum also hosts lectures, workshops and family-friendly activities, making it a great place to get involved with the community.
Yonkers residents get excited about the annual Riverfest. The free event allows families and neighbors to get together and enjoy a parade, food, art booths and a car show. With the staged performances and street musicians scattered throughout the festival, attendees will find plenty of great entertainment. This event is a wonderful opportunity for Yonkers residents to explore the downtown area and is always a hit with residents.

I know we don't have any better options, but something about Lance Thomas as our starting SF makes me sad, even though I like him a lot.

We need to "Rebrand" the outside of New Orleans Arena, badly. And then blend the surrounding area into Champions Square.
Yeah, aesthetically the arena totally clashes with my belt.
I mean the Superdome.
Monty pregame: I've just got one question for you. Are you a Pelican or a Pelicant?!
That intro song is such a ripoff of the Springsteen MLB playoffs theme song. "Land of Hope and Dreams"
And yet again, all i see is the pregame show for the Hawks game. Dammit I hate this crap.
Oh. Tell the camera man to keep his finger off the white balance.
I miss the "Ole" song.

In Year 41 of Hernando County wrestling, first-time achievements have been as common a Florida shower.
For instance, for the first time ever five county mat programs – Springstead, Central, Hernando, Nature Coast and Weeki Wachee – will be represented in this weekend's two-day, Class 1A-2A FHSAA Finals at the Jenkins Arena inside The Lakeland Center.
The 16 assembled local grapplers enter the Polk County venue with a similar goal – who'll become a state champion atop the podium following Saturday night's final exam?
The 49th annual state finals begin at 10 a.m. today for the top 672 grapplers in 1A, 2A and 3A.
Three IBTs (individually bracketed tournaments – one for each classification) will run simultaneously featuring a double-elimination format. There will be two winners and losers rounds on Friday. Action runs until approximately 10 p.m.
Saturday begins with a wrestleback round at 9:30 a.m. followed by exciting semifinals and wrestlebacks. Finals are slated to begin at 5:30 p.m. on three mats.
The top six finalists in each of the 14 weight divisions will earn a medal. Trophies will be awarded to team state champions and team state runners-up.
The county's mat squads are all attempting to rewrite their school's record books.
Last winter, Springstead meandered down uncharted territory – not only capturing its second-ever mat state championship, but securing the county's first-ever state repeat in any sport since athletics were introduced.
A year later, Springstead is on the brink of re-scripting history once again.
Springstead enters states with nine grapplers including: seniors Stephen Pavao at 120 (36-8) and Joe Russo at 152 (41-8), juniors Jordan Rivera at 138 (41-4) and Corey Humphrey at 220 (28-16), and sophomores Matt Landgraff (county-best 46-7), Michael McDonald at 113 (45-3, county-high 32 pins), Andrew Smith at 126 (37-17), Billy Swift at 160 (38-15) and Conor Ross at 170 (44-4).
Six Eagles have previous state experience including: Landgraff, McDonald, Pavao, Russo, Rivera and Ross.
Rivera, a three-time state qualifier, enters as a two-time state placer (finished third twice).
In 2012, Ross was last winter's 2A state runner-up at 170, while Landgraff placed sixth at 106.
Until this winter, no Hernando County mat program has ever captured nine tournaments in one season. This current Eagle squad is tied at eight titles with the 2000-01 Springstead team guided by Hall of Famer Bob Levija and the 2010-11 Springstead team led by Eric Swensen.
There are plenty of reasons, besides six returning state qualifiers, to suggest a Springstead three-peat.
The state tournament is a game of survival and numbers. The more wrestlers any team tows to Lakeland, the greater the likelihood it'll score more points.
Case in point was 2010. Three winters ago, Springstead fell to Oviedo in the 2A-II "Region of Doom" by 13.5 points. More importantly, the Lions towed 10 grapplers to states.
Even though Springstead entered with eight state qualifiers and departed with a county-record five state champs, the Mariner Boulevard crew finished as state runner-up by five agonizing points. The main reason: the Lions were a tad deeper.
Today, of the state's 130 2A programs, Springstead enters Lakeland with the most grapplers in tow, followed closely by two-time state runner-up and three-time 2A-II runner-up Lakeland-Lake Gibson (eight), 2A-IV's respective champ and runner-up Homestead and Boca Raton-Olympic Heights (eight), 2A-III champion Fort-Myers-Riverdale (seven), 2A-I third-placer Gainesville (seven), as well 2A-I's champion and runner-up Tallahassee-Lincoln and Niceville (six).
The Eagles' brutal strength of schedule sits in their favor. Most teams would shy away competing in half of the tournaments the Spring Hill mat men show up at.
Even novice fans understand the Cougar Invitational in Plant City, the Knockout Christmas Classic, the Flagler Invite and Ippolito Tournament are no picnics for anybody who attends.
Against 1A teams including Lake Highland Prep twice, Springstead finished 41-0.
Against the daunting likes of 3A powerhouses like Brandon, Kissimmee-Osceola, Homestead-South Dade, Winter Springs, Fort Lauderdale-St. Thomas Aquinas and Palm Harbor-University (just to name a few) – Springstead has 'struggled' to a 51-10 mark (84 percent).
But versus 2A competition, the Eagles enter states with a combined 107-1 won-lost mark (99.1 percent).
Their lone loss to any Sunshine State 2A squad was to Riverdale by 17.5 points, 136.0-118.5, at Plant City. Interestingly in that Hillsborough County event, two 2012 state qualifiers, senior Stephen Pavao and Joe Russo, did not make the trip due to illness.
"Our strength of schedule is a huge factor in our success," explained first-year Eagle skipper Sal Basile, who served as Swensen's right-hand assist for the past eight seasons. "Obviously, this (states) is why we wrestle who we wrestle.
"Our kids put in the time during the offseason; they wrestle national tournaments, too," described the two-time Springstead state qualifier from 1992-93. "When you wrestle in those huge meets there's mental confidence that comes with it. I think that's why we're able to pull out so many tournaments at this level. Our guys are battled-tested."
On what's most important, "Having an unbeaten record going into states means I haven't done my job," pointed out Coach Basile. "Kids have to be challenged. You learn so much more from a loss than any win.
"Going to Durant, Osceola, Flagler, Ippolito are all challenges," pointed out Coach Basile. "That's why I can't count any of our guys out this weekend. This (states) is what we've worked for all year. The trick is peaking out at this building."
In another ominous note to Springstead opponents, "Knock on wood, we're as healthy as we've been all year," stressed Basile. "This week, nobody missed any practice and everyone is feeling good going in."
On the state draws, "The chances of us getting nine perfect draws wasn't realistic," said Basile. "We got some favorable draws, a lot more than, say, Lake Gibson. They drew a lot more tough matches in the first and second rounds."
On who'll win 2A, "I'm concerned about Riverdale," stressed Coach Basile. "They have three guys (145, 195, 220) who could very likely reach the finals. I think we have to put three in the finals (to win). Our other six guys will make a huge difference. Our nine scoring against Riverdale's seven scoring could be the difference at the end."
On what the key will be, "The first round will be huge," pointed out Basile. "Getting out in front and setting the pace is something we really haven't done this year. Usually we just hang around and hang around and then turn it up.
"We have to wrestle as well as we can. If we get beat, hat's off to them."
Nature Coast does not possess the sheer numbers to impact the final team standings – the Sharks placed sixth last winter – but could have push two of its three grapplers into their first-ever finals.
According to ninth-year Nature Coast head coach Mike Lastra, what Nature Coast lacks in quantity, it retains in quality behind three regional champions: seniors Sean Nguyen at 106 (team-best 41-2), Brandon Vovan at 160 (41-5) and Dylan Savoury at 182 (36-8).
Nguyen is a returning state placer from 2012 (fourth).
Over the past seven seasons no Shark as has ever returned home with a gold medal draped around his neck.
"Going in we have no injuries to speak of and we're ready to roll," said Coach Lastra, a former Central state qualifier. "(Assistant) Coach (Greg) Jarque and I have preached to the kids all week about just going out there and executing. We look at it like we've got three shots at our first state champion."
On the Sharks' mindset, "Nothing is guaranteed," explained Lastra. "Last year, we had four guys lose in the first round; that's on me. I didn't prepare the guys for that first round. Not this year, the first round is the most important.
"I know everyone wants to go 2-0 on Friday – that's our goal," said Lastra. "We'll take care of Saturday when Saturday arrives.
"I like Sean and Brandon's draws," pointed out Coach Lastra. "The experience factor should really help Sean. And Brandon can't come in satisfied for just being there."
On Savoury's draw, "It's not that I don't think he can win, it's more about he's got a much tougher road to get there," noted Lastra. "He's a phenomenal athlete, who is wrestling at the top of his game. He's just got to keep it going."
On who'll win 2A, "To me, Springstead is in the driver's seat," pointed out Lastra. "Everyone focuses on their big dogs, but they've got three silent killers in Smith, Swift and Humphrey."
Last year, Hernando High's county record of having at least one state placer for 21 winters was snapped.
This year, junior Jesse Gaudin (38-1, 25 pins) extended Hernando's county record to 24 straight winters with at least one state qualifier.
Gaudin, the school's 108th state qualifier since 1973, arrives as the school's 30th regional champ riding a personal-best 26-match winning streak.
"I've waited a long time for this," said the 17-year-old Gaudin after regionals. "I came in hungry. I have to stay hungry. I haven't won anything yet. Finishing first here is a big advantage for the state seedings."
Gaudin aims at becoming the school's 14th state champion – and first since Daniel Pritz in 2010.
For the first time since 2002-03 when seniors Sergio Matos and Bucky Solomon reached states, Central will be represented by two teammates at states: senior Josh Marquez at 120 (16-13) and junior Jesus Nieves at 145 (30-11).
The Bears haven't had a state champion since Mike Mallin in 1997 under Alan Solomon.
Junior Dante Padilla (team-best 44-13, team-high 25 pins) at 120 became the first-ever Weeki Wachee grappler to reach states.
Padilla advanced from the 1A-II Tourney at Lakeland-Tenoroc thanks to a fourth-place finish.

Your point was that BSDs share kernels. That's not true, as the BSD being talked about in the article all use different kernels.
Also, you said they share packaging systems. That's true to a much lesser extent than you implied, it's just that DragonflyBSD uses netpkgsrc (and maybe OpenBSD too, I don't know).
PC-BSD is just a distribution of FreeBSD, not another BSD.
With that said, the only significant things that the BSD community appears to lack at the moment are KVM, Network Manager, some wireless drivers and some graphics drivers, all of which could easily be ported if key Linux developers were to join the BSD community. If Linux developers joined the BSD community to do that, end users would be better off.

What I'm saying, is that there's strength in numbers.
The opening line:
Then we should work together, instead of working separately.For the average user, the difference is surprisingly small
Drivers! What they need are drivers or at least don't break working ones with an update.
Old SATA I controllers are not supported, newer ones are not supported and the one I found in the middle doesn't work properly since 8.3 any more.
Since I got a bloody nose with FreeBSD, it worked 1 year, then upgrade to 8.3 and tried ~6 months to get it working again (you cannot downgrade back to 8.2 since zfs is not compatible -.-). I am back on Gentoo Linux with that box and no data loss in the zfs pools.

What I'm saying is probably somewhere between the law of diminishing returns, and the law of marginal utility.(considering where the OSS user base is at) As I said just a moment ago, there's strength in numbers.
But even though I think that BSD has the upper hand based on some of the principles you laid out, the notion(and even the original article states this in the opening paragraph) that it's "bsd vs linux" is weird to me. It's OSS vs Microsoft and/or other corporations who seek to either make us dependent upon their sub-par(or even faulty) wares, over charge, or other such nonsense.
Last edited by ryao; 11-13-2012 at 10:26 AM.
However, most devs realize their own visions on the various BSDs. That's why there is not one single BSD OS.
For example, Matt Dillon wanted a diferent approach to SMP on FreeBSD, but he wasn't allowed to(or whatever), so he forked FreeBSD and created DragonflyBSD.
You won't get him or anyone working on it to develop for Linux.
Same with OpenBSD, you sure as hell won't get Theo de Raadt to give up his vision on having the best security, which he can only realize with an own OS.

Good luck smizing through this piece of news. Tyra Banks shocked fans today when she announced that long time America's Next Top Model's judges and mentors, Jay Manuel, J. Alexander and Nigel Barker will not be returning for Cycle 19 of the hit modelling reality show. The New York Post is reporting that the three ANTM staples, who have been with ANTM since 2003, did not have their contracts renewed to return next season. This is so not fierce.
Banks, who serves as the host, head judge and executive producer for America's Next Top Model, tweeted yesterday "Fierce & love 2 my @NigelBarker, @MrJayManuel & Miss J. #ANTM turned us in2 a family. Excited for what the future holds for us." Noted fashion photographer Nigel Barker kept it classy with his Twitter response, tweeting "Best of luck with cycle 19, It has been a pleasure working with you the past 8 years. Much love Nigel."
While I almost never agree with Nigel's criticisms for the models, he did play a role in taming down the judging panel. Jay Manuel, who hosted the short lived Canada's Next Top Model, and Ms. J Alexander will definitely be missed by fans. Who will teach the girls how to walk? But the most shocking thing about this breaking news article is that it brought to my attention runway coach J. Alexander's age – 53! Now that's fierce.
