June 20, 1967 o. KUTTLER 3,326,509
FASTENER FOR ROTATABLE DEVICE Filed March 15, 1965 [nvenio 2'.
02%0 Kuiiler,
United States Patent 3,326,509 FASTENER FOR ROTATABLE DEVICE Otto Kuttler, Lorrach, Baden, Germany, assignor to A. Raymond, Baden, Germany, a firm Filed Mar. 15, 1965, Ser. No. 439,704 Claims priority, application Germany, Mar. 28, 1964, R 37,572
2 Claims. (Cl. 248-359) This invention relates generally to fastening devices and more specifically to fastening devices for use with an article of manufacture adapted to be turned through an a An object of the present invention is to provide a fastening device for holding an article of manufacture to a support wherein said support exerts a spring tension on the fastening device. 0
Another object of the present invention is to provlde a fastening device for engagement with an artlcle ofmanufacture and a support wherein the fastening device has means for exerting a spring tension against the article of manufacture.
Still another object of the present invention is to provide a fastening device for engaging an article of manufacture with a support wherein the article of manufacture may be rotated about an axis of journals of the support.
Other objects of the invention will, in part, be obvious and will, in part, appear hereinafter.
Devices, such as floor or table lamps, sun lamps, heat radiators, fans etc., should be able to be turned readily into the direction of their setting by simplifying their handling without special attendance. Likewisedt is of advantage to be able to effect a change of the setting without cumbersome loosening and retightening of screws. The present invention permits the desired rapid shifting in a simple manner and improves the handling and attendance of these devices. At the same time the invention concerns the fastening of the device on its support, which can be of any design.
The invention consists of a friction-increasing clamping plate, which is designed similar to a spring nut and which takes over its function simultaneously on engagement. Its application requires that a spring tension act on the clamping plate by which the friction between the device and the support is correspondingly increased, so that any accidental change of position is prevented after the device has been set. On Q other hand, it should require relatively little outside force to effect any desired turning of the device in the sense of its 1nclination or raising with regard to the support.
For the realization of the subject of the invention there are provided clamping plates which have in their center a hole for the introduction of the journal of the support, this journal forming the axis of rotation. This hole has a somewhat smaller diameter than the journal. From the center of the clamping plate radiate cutouts which terminate ahead of the bent-over edge of the clamping plate, thus forming tongue-shaped sections. In order to achieve a better spring nut effect, it is necessary to bend the clamping plate in the manner of a dish.
The application of the clamping plate according to the invention requires an initial stress to increase the friction by pressing the clamping plate on the wall of the device.
This can be achieved, for example, by arranging the device between the arms of its support with the two journals protruding into the latter, the journals having an outwardly directed spring tension. In this case the clamping plates area arranged inside the wall of the device on the two journals. But, if necessary, an inwardly acting spring tension can also be exerted on the journals. The clamping plates would, therefore, have to be applied 3,326,509- Patented June 20, 1967 in the latter case on the outer wall of the device on the journals.
In a further development of the invention, a clamping plate may be provided to produce the spring tension necessary to increase the friction between the device and the clamping plate by means of the plate itself. To this end, the clamping plate is provided with resilient supporting tongues which protrude from the interior of the disk. In the assembled state, these tongues bear resiliently on the wall of the device and secure thus the spring tension required to increase the friction. The design of these supporting tongues can vary according to the 'requirements. Preferably the supporting tongues are arranged inside the resilient tongue sections and are therefore smaller than the latter. The roots of these supporting tongues are arranged, just like the resilient tongue sections, on the edge of the clamping plate, and they point with their tongue end to the center of the clam-ping plate; but the supporting tongues are bent against the shell curvaure beyond the edge.
FIG. 1 shows a clamping plate according to the invention in a plan view;
FIG. 2 is a cross section taken on line 22 of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a perspective view, partly in section, of the clamping plate engaged with a support and an article of manufacture;
FIG. 4 is a top plan view of a variation of the clamping plate shown in FIG. 1;
FIG. 5 is a section taken on line 55 of FIG. 4; and
FIG. 6 is a side elevation partly in section of the clamping plate shown in FIG. 4 engaged with a support and an article of manufacture.
The round clamping plate or ratchet plate 12 shown in FIGS. 1 through 3 contains in its center a hole 1 for receiving a circular journal 6 of the support 7 of a device 8. The diameter of this hole 1 is somewhat greater than that of the journal 6 to be passed through. From the center of the clamping plate 12 radiate four narrow cutouts 2 which extend to the edge 3, thereby forming four tongue-shaped sections 4. The uncut edge 3 is bent over so that only one arced surface can come in contact with the device wall 9. The clamping plate 12 itself is slightly dish-shaped in the same direction as the bent over flange of the clamping plate edge 3.
If these clamping plates 12 are attached, for example, on the inside of a device wall 9 on the two journals 6 of the respective fork-shaped support 7, as shown in FIG. 3, the two clamping plates 12 are pressed by the outwardly acting spring force F of the two journals on the device wall 9, so that the device is not only firmly secured on its support, but also prevented sufficiently from turning accidentally with regard to the support. On the other hand, the clamping force and the increased friction respectively are only so high that it is possible at any time to incline or raise the device with relatively little effort with regard to the support 7, depending on the provided setting.
FIGS. 4 through 6 show another clam-ping plate 13, in a further development of the invention, which is provided with resilient supporting tongues 5. Otherwise the clamping plate 13 is similar to that shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 and similar numbers with the subscript a are used to designate like parts. These resilient supporting tongues 5 have the effect that a special initial stress between the support and the device is not necessary. If a pair of these clamp ing plates 13 is attached on the journal ends 10 of a swivel joint 11, for example, in a lamp etc., as shown in FIG. 6, they will act not only as such, but also as spring nuts. The clamping and the desired increased friction respectively are produced in the clamping-plate 13 itself, namely by the resilient tongues 5 which bear on the wall of the device.
Naturally it is also possible within the framework of the present invention to impart to the clamping plates any form that seems necessary and indicated for the respective case. This includes particularly the design and dimensioning of the resilient tongues, which is not limited to that of the embodiment shown in FIGS. 4 through 6.
The present invention makes additional measures for clamping devices in their respective setting unnecessary, and it permits at any time to change the setting. The operation of the device is thus simplified.
Since certain other obvious modifications may be made in this device without departing from the scope of the invention, it is intended that all matters contained herein be interpreted in an illustrative and not in a limiting sense.
I claim:
1. The combination of a device having a pair of spaced apertured side walls each of said side walls having an external surface, a support member including a pair of flexible legs, said legs being in parallel relationship to each other and each of said legs having an engagement portion extending therefrom, said engagement portions being spaced from each other a distance greater than the dis tance between said walls and being directed toward each other and being subject to an outwardly directed force away from each other and one of said engagement por- 2 tions passed through one of said apertures in said wall and the other of said engagement portions passed through the other of said apertures formed in said walls, the major portion of said legs lying outside said device in spaced '4 relation thereto and a pair of ratchet plate members, a single ratchet plate member engaged with each of said engagement portions whereby said engagement portions are held in connection with said device and said device 5 is rotatable through an are about said engagement por- 10 series of slots extending radially from said aperture toward the periphery of said base portion, each of said tongues having a free terminal edge and said free terminal edges engaging about said engagement portion and said base portion engaging against the inner surface of 15 each of said walls.

Water meter for lawn?
After speaking to our new next door neighbors about their water bill being reduced after installing a 2nd water meter for their lawn watering...
Now - we are interested in one also for our new build.
1) How much is a dedicated meter for the sprinklers?
2) For new build, does it cost any more for the plumber to install?
3) Does a second meter cover just the lawn sprinklers or the outside hose bibs also?
Thanks for any insights.
I was able to purchase a used water meter for $35 from our utility company about 10 years ago. We have it hooked onto the primary source of water for our yard -- we have a spigot in the front that is not covered. We installed it ourselves, it was a simple installation.
We get a deduction in the sewer fee only. It has saved us quite a bit over the years, but less so now that we have a gravity fed rain barrel watering system for the garden.
So much will depend on how your utility handles the system. I'm in Maine so our water costs are low.

His son (who was 10 years old at the time) was well behaved, fun, and did nothing to upset anyone at the house. We would definitely host them again and would recommend Troy and his son to any AirBnB host in the future!
Troy was an excellent guest. He is very personable and friendly. We accepted the reservation with him and his pre-teen son as it was just the 2 of them. This was our first time hosting someone with a child and it could not have worked out any better. Dominc is a very sweet and well-behaved kid! We very much enjoyed hosting both of them and they are welcome back any time!
Troy was a fine guest, friendly and cooperative. He was out exploring Honolulu a good part of the time, so we didn't see very much of him around the office. We'd be pleased to rent to him again if he wants to visit Honolulu again.

'Silver Linings Playbook' star, Jennifer Lawrence, hosted an episode of Saturday Night Live and gave a bland performance. Does this mean we won't see Lawrence do comedy again anytime soon?
After winning a Golden Globe award, things should have seemed promising for Jennifer Lawrence's TV and comedy endeavor. But they were far from being "promising" at all. When Lawrence hosted the latest episode of Saturday Night Live, critics tagged the skits to be "boring," with a humor that "fell short."
It seems that Jennifer Lawrence's adventure to comedy was not successful. Headlines call the stint "a clueless endeavor," humorly pressing that the "comedy odds are not in her favor."
"In fact, our favorite skit of the evening didn't even involve Lawrence at all! The Starbucks Verisimo skit below was the only one that got a real laugh." wrote Carina Adley Mackenzie of Zap2It.com.
"They had a whole month off and that's what they come up with?" writes famous TV critic, Mike Ryan of The Huffington Post.
One of the worst parts of her episode was her monologue. Lawrence bashed her fellow Oscar nominees for best actress, but it was obvious that Lawrence did not intend to be "brutal," minimizing the effectiveness of the script.
"Well, well, well. Look who it is, Jessica Chastain. More like, Jessica Chas-ain't winning no Oscar on my watch!" speaks Lawrence of Zero Dark Thirty star, Jessica Chastain during her monologue. Another nominee, Naomi Watts, was next on the bash list.
"You were in 'The Impossible'. You know what else is impossible? You beating me on Oscar night" says Lawrence as if talking to Watts.
Lawrence went on in a couple of skits, with her past role as Katniss Everdeen in 'The Hunger Games' constantly being played at. Grammy nominess, The Lumineers, performed as the musical guest in the said episode.
Watch the video below to see Jennifer Lawrence in action during her SNL episode.

College Athletes Score Points on Path Toward Gaining Cut of TV Money
A San Francisco judge certifies a class action that could change the face of televised collegiate sports.
It's called March Madness. CBS and Turner Broadcasting have paid more than $10.8 billion for rights to an annual 68-team college basketball tournament through 2024. But what has the money really bought?
On Friday, a federal judge in San Francisco partly certified a class action antitrust lawsuit brought by NCAA collegiate athletes. The plaintiffs allege that the NCAA forces its athletes to relinquish the right to the commercial use of their images in perpetuity. Now, as a result of the judge's certification, the athletes will be allowed to push for an injunction barring the NCAA from prohibiting current and former student-athletes from entering into group licensing deals for the use of their names, images, and likenesses in video games and game broadcasts.
STORY: NCAA Athletes Advance in Antitrust Lawsuit Over TV Broadcasts and Video Games
If the suing athletes are eventually successful, all hell could break loose on the TV licensing front.
In U.S. District Judge Claudia Wilken's certification ruling (read here), she denied the college athletes from pursuing compensation for the past use of their images and likenesses. The judge said the plaintiffs hadn't provided a feasible method for determining who would have played collegiate sports in the absence of pay restraints, which she says "contributes to the impossibility of determining which class members were actually injured."
But the plaintiffs scored a key victory on the road forward -- toward the end of amateurism.
The athletes seek an injunction that would bar the NCAA from interfering with group licensing deals made by student-athletes.
"Their request for this injunction is not merely ancillary to their demand for damages," writes Judge Wilken. "Rather, it is deemed necessary to eliminate the restraints that the NCAA has allegedly imposed on competition in the relevant markets. Without the requested injunctive relief, all class members -- including both current and former student-athletes -- would potentially be subject to ongoing antitrust harms resulting from the continued unauthorized use of their names, images, and likenesses. Because an injunction would offer all class members 'uniform relief' from this harm, class certification is appropriate."
A trial is scheduled for next June, and in the interim, there could be appeals and settlement talks. But if the athletes eventually attain an injunction, there will be no stopping athletes from threatening broadcasters with litigation for the use of their likenesses and proposing alternative license deals. Or as New Hampshire School of Law sports law professor Michael McCann puts it, "Television networks would have to negotiate not only with the NCAA but with student-athletes for broadcast rights, while the NCAA and student-athletes might strike separate licensing contracts with two different video game publishers."
The networks might raise First Amendment defenses to athlete publicity rights claims -- which Judge Wilken acknowledged last month hasn't been addressed at the Supreme Court nor the federal courts of appeals -- but surely, the next time a major television network spends billions of dollars on broadcast game rights, it will likely demand assurances that there are no clouds over those rights.

Jazz: New York in the Roaring Twenties – an illustrated, aural, and written history of Harlem's early jazz scene
"The Roaring Twenties began with Prohibition and ended with the stock market crash. In the years between, New York experienced an unparalleled revolution in ways of life, language, and music."
For jazz, the epicenter of the revolution was Harlem.
Created by German illustrator Robert Nippoldt with text by Hans-Jürgen Schaal, Jazz: New York in the Roaring Twenties is a beautifully produced over-sized, cloth-bound walk through the history of Harlem and its transformation from a peaceful village on the outskirts of New York City into "America's black Paris." Woven through 144 pages of ogle-worthy, award-winning design, we experience a Harlem alive with inspiration, invention, and unparalleled talent. We meet its key players through 24 extraordinary biographies of Harlem's jazz luminaries, and learn how the limits of the early recording process shaped the sound of the first jazz records ever pressed; why Louis Armstrong had to record without tuba or percussion in 1925; and why clarinetist Prince Robinson's legs had to be bound together before he could begin a studio session. We're introduced to each of the twenty recordings included on an accompanying CD –including the first commercially released jazz recording ever made, 1917's Livery Stable Blues – by way of histories and narratives connecting the dots between these pivotal pieces and their place in the annals of jazz. The book even maps historic Harlem's nightclub, theater, and dance hall scene.
Jazz: New York in the Roaring Twenties celebrates time and place without ever sugarcoating the often harsh realities and egregious adversities faced by the legendary community of artists who created a uniquely American genre of music. It's an adventure in art, words, and sound that successfully manages to blur the line between a 'Jazz for Dummies' treatment and a collection for the seasoned aficionado.

DJs plunder Raymond Scott's archives and remix rarities: Raymond Scott Rewired!
The Raymond Scott estate turned over 50 years' worth of the composer's archives to three DJs -- The Bran Flakes, The Evolution Control Committee, and Go Home Productions. The archives contained "jazz, orchestral, electronic, experimental, studio chatter, never-heard rarities," which the DJs remixed into six tracks each, as well as a collaborative remix of Raymond Scott's "Powerhouse," perhaps his best known work (and much beloved of classic Warner Brothers' cartoons fans).
The Raymond Scott Rewired CD came out on Feb 18, and there's also an MP3 version.
Electro-swing: glitchy, jazzy, uptempo music
Having belatedly discovered the Electro Swing genre, I'm enjoying the hell out of it. My wife brought home a link to Caravan Palace's "Clash" (from their 2012 album Panic), which is pretty much perfect in its ability to hit all my sweet spots: Django/Grapelli-ish picking, megaphone singing, Andrews Sisters harmonies, Herbie Hancock glitch-tunes, and just enough dubstep to be interesting (but not enough to be annoying).

Lord Buckley meets Groucho Marx
Nothing says Christmas like jazz poetry, and nothing says jazz poetry like Lord Buckley's appearance on You Bet Your life. If you only watch one 10-minute video of a jazz poet trading quips with Groucho Marx this holiday season, make it this one. Bonus: a totally unsubstantiated comment on the YouTube page says that Buckley's partner is actor Amy Poehler's grandmother.
Lord Buckley's "Christmas Carol"
Patrick sez, "Lord Buckley was a comedian/storyteller who performed in the '50s. His version of A Christmas Carol is an utter delight."
Damned straight. Lord Buckley's a hero of mine, and this is him at his best. If this has you intrigued, try his version of The Raven, and Dig Infinity!, the indispensable biography of Lord Buckley.
Videos of people playing bass flutes
Back when I was a junior-high flute player, I once heard somebody mention the existence of bass flutes. I was instantly intrigued. But, in the days before readily available Internet access, I wasn't able to track down examples of what they looked or sounded like.
Today, YouTube is filled with examples of deep-voiced, husky flutes — ranging from the simply extra-long alto flute to the gigantic subcontrabass flute, which is basically a percussion instrument with some woodwind features.
It's fascinating stuff, and a handy reminder that flutes can do really interesting things ... like improvisational jazz, and beatboxing. I've put together a small playlist of videos. Enjoy!
Preservation Hall 50th Anniversary Collection: four discs of New Orleans jazz with guest appearances from Tom Waits, Pete Seeger, Del McCoury and others
Last week, I linked to a couple early tracks from the new Preservation Hall Band CD, St. Peter & 57th St, which comes out today.
What I didn't mention is that today also marks the release of The Preservation Hall 50th Anniversary Collection, a four-disc box-set spanning the Preservation Hall band's storied history from 1962 to 2010, with guest vocals and instrumentation from Richie Havens, Tom Waits, Pete Seeger, Andrew Bird, Yim Yames and Del McCoury.
Preservation Hall is the legendary New Orleans club whose eponymous house band frequently host some of the greatest talents in jazz music. I drop in on the Hall every time I'm in NOLA and am never disappointed.
I got an early peek at this last week and have had it on an continuous loop ever since. The discs include five previously unreleased tracks that were nearly lost in the aftermath of Katrina, but which were rescued and restored. It's a best-of drawing from 20 CD and albums the band have previously released, and it's absolute gold. Though the music spans many styles and sub-genres of blues and jazz, every track is a winner; the accompanying booklet provides invaluable commentary and color from tuba player Ben Jaffe, the son of Preservation Hall's founders, Allan and Sandra Jaffe.
Sneak peek at Preservation Hall Band live at Carnegie Hall album
Here's a hell of a way to start the weekend: a couple of outstanding tracks from the upcoming album St. Peter & 57th St, from the Preservation Hall Band, the very sound of New Orleans. The album was recorded live in Carnegie Hall, and ships on September 25th.
* It Ain't My Fault, featuring Yasiin Bey (a.k.a. Mos Def), Trombone Shorty, Allen Toussaint
* Careless Love, with a horn section that'll make you weep and a singer that'll make you wail.

Preservation Hall Jazz Band: old time jazz from New Orleans
Last year, I found myself in New Orleans for a rather epic birthday party. One place I knew I wanted to visit was Preservation Hall, (which I'd written about here), a legendary unamplified jazz club. It was everything I'd heard and more.
I bought the whole run of Preservation Hall CDs, and they've been in heavy rotation here. Of the bunch, my favorite is "Songs of New Orleans," and I always know it's going to be a good day when the random number generator smiles on me and shuffles a track from the double CD into my music player, especially if that track is Go to the Mardi Gras, which played about ten minutes ago and put a smile on my face that's certain to last the day through.
I've just noticed that there's a new(ish) Preservation Hall Jazz Band CD, American Legacies, which, alas, I can't say anything about, because the Amazon MP3 store won't sell it to me (I'm in Germany and my credit card is registered in the UK, so they shut me out).
Gypsophilia's "Constellation" -- decadent old-time jazz with a klezmer touch from Halifax, Nova Scotia
Back in 2009, I reviewed "Sa-ba-da-OW!", a wonderful, eclectic album from Gypsophilia, an indie band out of Halifax, Nova Scotia. I've just finished a day's listening to their new album, "Constellation," which is out today, and it's every bit as good as the last one. This is still recognizably Gypsophilia, still eclectic, slightly angular, high-energy jazz with bits of klezmer and stuff thrown in, but Constellation is more put-together and polished. But not too polished! It still makes me want to get out of my seat and dance around the room (especially the opening track, "Zachary's Czardas," which seems to channel Stéphane Grappelli's jazz fiddle and the piano stylings of Daffy Duck in full swing).
The album is available as name your price, DRM-free MP3s, a CD, or a vinyl LP.
Jazz parade in Molde, Norway to commemorate terrorist victims
The terrorist attack on Norway coincided with the annual Molde Jazz Festival, which traditionally concludes with a jazz parade through the city. The festival organizers changed their parade route to lead to the Molde Cathedral, and the performers played a solemn jazz funeral march through town. The video (
not embeddable, unfortunately -- thanks for the embed code, Costeau!) is incredibly moving. Google Translate from Norwegian newspaper Dagbladet follows:
Today it goes to Molde Cathedral which has opened its doors to all who need help to cope with grief, uncertainty and despair. 11 young people from Molde in Utøya, and their fate is still unclear.Moldejazz i sørgemoll (via Making Light)
Jazz ceremony, the 60 to 70 young people from Hampshire, sets the "West Lawn Dirge", an old funeral march from New Orleans. The plaintive f-minor theme, followed by some slightly lighter stroke before the mourning mood again takes over, filling the main street. Silent people wreaths march route. Many of them crying, and eventually ends several hundred to the parade, follow it into the cathedral and takes in the bishops' words of comfort and a standing invitation at any time to seek help in the large, quiet room.

Wow! That's really gr8.
| Guest chapter 9 . 11/1/2012
Enjoyed all the chapters. Kudos to AM. Please write more on this fantastic Caskett love story.
| Guest chapter 6 . 11/1/2012
I am enjoying all your chapters. Only the chapter where Josh was seen, made me wonder about Beckett's thoughts... did she miss Josh - motorebike riding with Josh - travelling with him at high speed all around? If she missed the motorbike ride, Josh's motorbike ride, then at the back of her mind... I really wonder. You have nicely depicted Castle's reaction at that point.
| Guest chapter 2 . 11/1/2012
Yes. Enjoying the story.
| Guest chapter 1 . 11/1/2012
OH! The beginning is good. The end was wonderful. Liked it so much.
| evangml chapter 1 . 8/14/2012
The flow and pace of your entire story was on point, delightful and thoroughly satisfying. I began reading the story yesterday and walk this morning eager to complete all of your chapters. The content in each chapter was just enough to encourage a complete read of the entire submission. Well done. I am anxious for your next submission.
| firtree chapter 9 . 8/11/2012
nicely done!
| Ralob chapter 9 . 5/12/2012
Awww, that was a really, really nice story. You definitely showed Kate's evolution and growth. Well done.
| FromParis chapter 9 . 4/30/2012
Wow! Just discovered yesterday your name and stories "Wrong" and "TCRC"... This last chapter : "Richard/Rick" 's intimate moment, the foreshadowing marriage proposal, the Beckett's ILY declaration, ...
Even if you might think I'm a late reviewer (your story has been published in Aug'11!), I think your story is "timeless".
Your story starts with a Beckett/Lanie discussion... and ends with Beckett's love confession and Alexis leaving the nest. There are so many parallels with the show and you described them with practically one year in advance...
So, unless you're one the Malowe's writting team, do you believe in fate? :)
| anonymous.individual chapter 9 . 4/9/2012
Oh wow. :D So good :)

Database updated with Sunday's coupons
The News & Observer's coupon database has been updated.
This Sunday's home-delivered Final Edition of The News & Observer contains two inserts -- a Smart Source and a Red Plum.
There are 160 coupons with a face value of about $210. Both coupon books are big and contain several high-value coupons.
I especially like the coupon for $1.50 off fresh beef when you buy a Wholly Guacamole product. It's not often that you get a coupon on meat so be sure to capitalize on that one, if you have meat eaters in your family.
Not familiar with the coupon database? You can access it by clicking on the Coupon Database tab at the top of the home page of the blog.
It's a handy tool, giving you the most timely and detailed list of coupons in the Triangle.

The product of a high dollar, multi-year build, this incredible Mopar
pro-tourer wraps a 500 horsepower 3G Hemi and a
completely custom suspension in a custom leather interior and killer
custom-mixed paint.
Completed in early 2012, this super clean curve carver is the direct result
of what happens when a seasoned fabricator has an uncompromised vision,
major dedication and access to a six-figure bank account. See, the car's
creator already owned a killer Charger that was buff enough to pull down
sub 10-second passes on an NHRA-sanctioned drag strip, so he wanted to
build a second car that was a bit milder and quite different. Enter this
neon Plymouth, a project which quickly escalated from the restoration of a
fun cruiser into the creation of an outrageous driver's car.
Hoist this Plymouth's bright fiberglass hood and you'll find 6.1 liters of
naturally aspirated 3G Hemi bliss. Straight from the factory that popular
SRT8 powerplant produces an impressive 425 horsepower and 420 lb./ft.
of torque. And with the help of a custom tune by the folks at Bouchillon
Performance Engineering in Hanahan, South Carolina, its performance
transforms from wild to flat out wicked! Measuring in at roughly 372 cubic
inches, the big mill uses a revised block, forged internals, lighter
pistons and a cast aluminum intake to crank out a whopping 500 horsepower and 460 lb./ft.
of torque. And best of all, that's 500 horsepower that'll fire up
in any weather, last thousands of maintenance-free miles, and probably lay
waste to any old school muscle car that's brave enough to stage a
Behind the neo Hemi, a Hughes Performance A727 Torqueflite produces great
bite and hard launches. Out back, there's a fresh Moser Sure Grip rear end
that's equipped with moderate, pavement pounding gears. At the front of the
car, custom-mounted rack and pinion steering provides smooth turns and
quick reflexes. That rack is held off the ground by a first class double
A-arm suspension that's a product of Magnumforce upper control arms, two
inch drip spindles, fresh Aldan coil overs and modified Mancini lower
control arms. Holding the car's rear end off the ground is a Reilly
Motorsports triangulated four link set up that's equipped with new QA-1
coil over shocks. And at the corners of the chassis, custom Boze Alloy
wheels spin 235/55R18 front and 305/45R20 rear Yokohama Advan STs around
graphite gray spokes, satin-finished lips and yellow-trimmed center caps.
Open this B-Body's solid closing doors and take in its custom black
interior that, as an astute combination of serious hardware and modern
aesthetics, is the perfect place to spend jaunts like Hot Rod's famed Power
Tour. The first thing you'll notice is a pair of GS-1 touring buckets,
fitted with high quality RCI harnesses, that are so supportive they'll have
no problem living life 100 miles at a time. Between those seats, a custom
console anchors a B&M Pro Bandit shifter between two cup holders and a
remote controlled Sony CD player. At the front of that console, a clean
Just Dashes dash features snazzy white-faced gauges and a modern pushbutton
ignition switch. And in front of the driver, a three-spoke Momo steering
wheel spins a thick black rim around a shaved steering column.

Cynthia Nixon Vows Not to Be a Bridezilla
Originally posted 05/29/2010 10:15AM
Her wedding to Christine Marinoni might not be imminent, but Cynthia Nixon can promise ahead of time that she won't be a drama queen leading up to the big day.
"No, no Godzilla wedding," the Sex and the City star, 44, told PEOPLE at last week's New York Women in Film & Television's Designing Women Awards at Macy's Herald Square.
Nixon and Marinoni haven't set a date and are still holding out hope that they can tie the knot in New York, where same-sex marriage is not yet legal. "We're doing two things," Nixon says. "We're doing as much as we can to make it legal here, and we're also looking into other options."
Sarah Jessica Parker & Rest of Sexy Ladies Premiere the Sequel
Originally posted 05/25/2010 09:40AM
Wearing a bright yellow Valentino gown that alter-ego Carrie Bradshaw would certainly approve, Sarah Jessica Parker was "excited and nervous" at the chandelier-lined blue carpet for the premiere of Sex and the City 2 Monday night.
It's a "once in a lifetime experience," Parker said as she met throngs of fans lining the street outside New York's Radio City Music Hall.
Even with the rest of the leading ladies, Kristin Davis (in Jean Desses for Decades), Kim Cattrall (in Naeem Khan), and Cynthia Nixon (in Carolina Herrera) rocking glamorous gowns as well, Parker, insists that the success of SATC isn't just about the clothes.
"You can't hang your hat on fashion forever," she said. "I think people want a substantive story that is meaningful whether they relate or not, and they want to hear women talk about things that are important to them besides their desire to wear a pretty dress. [What's] so unique about these characters is that you can do both."
Relax! The Sex Ladies Love Working Together – Mostly
Originally posted 05/05/2010 05:30PM
Feuding on set? The ladies of Sex and the City say it's a lovefest working together – usually.
"Things just have to be explosive for no other reason than for people's imaginations," Kim Cattrall, 53, tells the June issue of Marie Claire "The chemistry among the four of us is very strong."
Kristin Davis laughs off rumors that she snubbed Cattrall at dinner one night while they were filming the SATC sequel, due in theatres May 27. "[One tabloid story] said Kim and I would eat in the restaurant and not sit together," the actress, 45, says. "The story was that we don't like each other. Ridiculous!"
While the fab four dispel any reports they can't stand each other, they don't deny there has been some tension over the years – just like any busy office.
Sarah Jessica Parker's Favorite New Sex Costar: Her Camel!
Originally posted 03/19/2010 11:25AM
Sarah Jessica Parker has come down with a case of PTP – as in "protect the plot" – and the "disease" is spreading to her Sex and the City 2 costars.
"We hope we made a movie that lives up to expectations," Parker told PEOPLE at Las Vegas's ShoWest convention Thursday.
Joined by Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis (Kim Cattrall is working on a play in London), the three, who received the Ensemble Award, refused to give any spoilers about the highly anticipated movie that was filmed in the Moroccan desert.
"We've never laughed harder or talked more or spent more time together," Parker said, adding that the women rode camels in one scene, making for some hysterical outtakes.
"The camels were beautifully trained," she said. "Cynthia and Kristin were on one camel and they had the most grumpy, ornery camel. Ours was so sweet, but then out of nowhere our camel would sit. You have to understand, it's not like a bike and the bike fell over. It's a camel, and the camel would just sit. And when they sit, it's a little like an earthquake. We laughed so hard."
Cynthia Nixon to Receive Special GLAAD Prize
Originally posted 01/13/2010 09:30AM
Recognizing the entertainment industry's impact on same-sex equality issues, the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation has announced its nominees for the group's 21st annual Media Awards, to be held March 13 in New York, April 17 in Los Angeles and June 5 in San Francisco.
AMC's acclaimed period drama Mad Men HBO's hit vampire show True Blood and ABC's new generational comedy Modern Family, along with singers Lady Gaga and Adam Lambert, are among the top contenders.
GLAAD also announced that Sex and the City star Cynthia Nixon, who made headlines by publicly discussing her long-term relationship with a woman, will be honored with the Vito Russo Award at the New York ceremony. The award, named after founding GLAAD member and author of The Celluloid Closet, is presented to an openly LGBT media professional who has helped promote equal rights.
All told, GLAAD announced 116 nominees in 24 English-language categories and 36 Spanish-language nominees in eight categories. In the competitive categories, cable networks earned 23 nominations, while broadcast networks pulled in 17.

Cynthia Nixon Announces Engagement to Girlfriend

Cynthia Nixon announced her engagement to girlfriend Christine Marinoni at a Sunday rally in New York to support same-sex marriage, reports Access Hollywood.
At the rally, which also attracted Gov. David A. Paterson and Mayor Michael Bloomberg, the Sex and the Coty actress, 43, flashed the diamond engagement ring Marinoni, 42, gave her and said, "It's time already," reports New York's Daily News.
Cynthia Nixon Praises Brad Pitt for Supporting Gay Marriage
Originally posted 09/19/2008 02:10PM
Sex and the City star Cynthia Nixon says Brad Pitt's recent $100,000 donation to fight a gay marriage ban is "inspiring."
"I think it's great," the actress said Thursday at a DVD premiere party for the Sex and the City movie in New York.
Nixon, who has said she'd marry her longtime girlfriend Christine Marinoni if gay marriage were legal in New York, applauded Pitt's recent donation to fight Proposition 8 – a ballot initiative that, if passed, would make same-sex marriages illegal in California.
Kathy Griffin, Cynthia Nixon Win Creative Arts Emmys

Kathy Griffin might need to consider adding another member to her staff just to carry around her Emmy awards.
The comedian won her second Emmy on Saturday, picking up the trophy for best reality program for her Bravo hit My Life On the D-List. And, true to form, she delivered another memorable – and bleepable – acceptance speech.
"Well, well, well! Here we go again, f-----ers," Griffin said, gamely accepting the award at the Creative Arts Emmys held at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles.
"I'm not going to tell anyone to suck it," she said, referencing her speech from 2007 in which she infamously told Jesus to "suck it." "I would make love to this thing if I could."
Cynthia Nixon Hopes to Tie the Knot

Sex and the City star Cynthia Nixon appears ready to walk down the aisle with her longtime partner Christine Marinoni.
But don't expect the couple to fly out to California where gay marriages were recently legalized.
"In an ideal world, we'd like to in New York, when it becomes legalized," Nixon, 42, told New York's Daily News.
"Hopefully, it won't take 20 years," Nixon added.

That does look good, and the price is right also.
Think theres a back plate?
I emailed the seller asking about he back plate, mounting brackets and a picture with the cover removed...
If you look at the pic, the mounting brackets are the tabs at the bottom/top. I'm betting it's part of the back plate.
The seller said that it didnt have a back plate, can I put one in? Do I need to? Or can I just mount everything to the back of the enclosure?
The price, and size are right...
you could easily put one in. All you need is the plate, and some standoffs.
If you can get a pic of the inside, there might already be standoffs ready for a backplate.
If you have the plate it's MUCH easier to wire/mount everything outside the box.
You can buy a steel or aluminum sheet at HD or Lowes and if need be add some supports to it if its too flimsy.
I bought a SS enclosure on ebay and made a backplate this way out of Aluminum sheet.
Those are just like the ones they sell at Lowes and HD. No back plate or mounting for one. You could make one as stated and bolt/screw it in.

1911-itis is an incurable ailment that makes you drool at the sight of one, your head spin and your wallet thin
May the Force be with you.
An armed society is a polite society - Robert HeinleinA Gun-Free-Zone is nothing more than a hunting preserve for wackos.
I checked out Colts fairly new LW Government Model DOA and was impressed by it. The double action only was very smooth and the pistol was very uncluttered. I've always preferred steel framed 1911s but Colt has been making aluminum framed versions for a lot of years with excellent longevity. When you think about it companies like Sig and Beretta make more of their great pistols with alloy frames and they to hold up well. Colt has seen fit to produce full size Government Models with allow frames which previously were reserved for their smaller sized 1911s. I don't think you can go wrong with either frame material.
Hi all,
I am a new member to this community, and I thought this was the right place to share my first 1911 purchase this weekend. I will soon the the proud parent of Para 1911 elite Commander (all steel btw). I went to buy an HK45C and decided on this. This is admittedly an impulse purchase, but this pistol has personality and couldn't resist. Now the dang 10 day wait, argh.
I like the alluminum frame best if your carry one you will appreiate it

Agree w/JW and others here WILL. I do understand what your dealing with. Because of degenerative Back and Shoulder injuries, I "Stepped Down" from 45 to 9MM. My wife has terrible Carpal Tunnel & very bad Arthritis and has trouble with most Autos. I saw someone mention the LC380. Both of us have shot this gun and found it reasonable to handle. Any larger gun that will eat up recoil is going to be harder to carry concealed except in winter clothes. ( I did once put a pump action 22 under my winter coat back east to "Discourage" a young man trying to steal the mirrors off my Wife's Pontiac)...
a 9mm 1911 has almost no recoil...
The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. Thomas Jefferson
The heavier the gun the lighter the recoil. Try to find a balance between a gun you can comfortably lift and a recoil that you can handle. It's going to be hard to fit in a CCW package, they're usually on the light side. What you need is the heaviest CCW you can comfortably carry in the smallest caliber you can find. I would check into some heavy compact 9mms. Maybe a 1911, or a glock clone with a bit more weight to it. Be sensible about it though, obviously stay away from anything with bad ergonomics/top heavy etc.
"...it is ...ALIVE!!!"
Will, several years ago I broke my right wrist on a fall to the ice, after three pins and cast for 6 months was removed I went to a pool donned a snorkel set and a float belt with a glove that enhanced the pull of water, I one handed without kicking lap after lap for 1 1/2 -2 hours a day for 3-5 days a week.
Before the incident I was very strong in hand and wrist ( mercy type contests, NOT arm wrestling) after the incident I was very weak, after 8 Months of laps I was half my former strength, after one year I was back to my normal strength. I also was following my Orthopedic instructions and they were aware of my laps in the pool.
Best of luck to you Will and GET STRONGER!
You have to LIVE, DIE, and PAY TAXES, and pay for what you do between your LIVING and your DYING!
A co-worker was in a similar situation. She could handle her .380 (Walther I believe) without issue, and several full size pistols, but found her newly aquired G19 a bit too snappy for her wrists. We put a Firedragon dual action recoil spring/guide rod (very similar to what the sub compacts use) in it and it made a considerable difference. Before, 1 mag was all she could stand. After the swap, she could shoot several mags and walk away without hurting the rest of the day. Just an option thats out there.
An armed society is not always a polite society, but it is a free and safe society!
Self Defense is an absolute and natural right!
Keep your head down and your powder dry!
I am stuck with weight limitations on what I can carry (30 oz max) on my belt and not have my back giving me trouble. Anything heavier and I have to wear heavy suspenders or a shoulder rig. I have several hand guns that are just under 30 oz in 9mm or 357/38spl. I mostly carry a Sig P238 380. Light and compact enough for pocket carry but it does not beat you to death like a P3AT or LCP both of which I no longer own. Better than the Bodyguard too. It is very easy to shoot and very accurate. If you want a 9mm, look at the Sig P938 or the S&W Shield. If you want a revolver, look at the Ruger SP101. The 2.2" weighs in at 27-28 oz loaded and is very mild with 38+P.

I was taught to respect my elders but they are getting harder to find.
I've got larger calibers and have no problem with shooting them. And, there are days on the farm when I will have either a Colt SAA .45 or .44 Special on me. But the one gun that always goes in my pocket regardless of anything else is the NAA Black Widow. Carries no harder than a pocket knife and the .22 Magnum is a nice little pocket round. Mine has the .22 LR cylinder also, which is nice for the range ($$$). The Black Widow has the larger Magnum frame in the minis. It also has a two inch heavy barrel, enhanced sights and over sized grips. At 15 yards, I can get 2-3 inch groups with this little gun.
Bigger may be more effective - but the .22 Magnum is always with me :-)
