Sherbrook Pool patrons anxious over facility's fate
Aiden and Jubilee Dueck Thiessen made valentines for their beloved Thursday night with dozens of adults at a community meeting to "show some love" for the Sherbrook Pool, which was closed by the city Nov. 29.
The brother, 9, and sister, 12, miss their neighbourhood pool, where they swam with their Sherbrook Sharks club.
"It's a fun way to stay active -- you meet so many new people," said Jubilee at a meeting at the Magnus Eliason Recreation Centre.
The city inspected the pool, then closed it, and the Friends of Sherbrook Pool, who helped organize the meeting, are waiting to learn its fate. A city engineering report on what needs to be done to reopen it is expected any day.
The Sharks are growing impatient.
Instead of walking to the Sherbrook Pool, they have to be driven to one in another neighbourhood, said Jubilee. Some of their friends' families don't have a vehicle and can't go, said Aiden.
"We'd go lots just for fun," Jubilee said, adding that the Sherbrook Pool is missed by kids in the area. "I'd be sad if it closed."
So would the seniors in aquasize, Chemo Savvy dragon boat racers, observant Muslim women who used the pool Sunday nights and generations of people who grew up in the West End, said Barry Dunford. He lives across the street and the pool provided a healthy activity for his granddaughter and thousands of kids in the low-income neighbourhood. Dunford said people there don't have much power or influence.
"If this had happened in Charleswood or Tuxedo, it would be a different story," said the self-employed upholsterer.
Dunford suspects the city has already decided to scrap the pool and do something profitable with the property. "I'd like to see another consultant's report," said Dunford, who wants a second opinion on the health of the facility.
Marianne Cerilli, Friends of Sherbrook Pool board chairwoman, said the city has agreed to hold regular meetings with the group to keep them informed.
About 60 people attended the meeting Thursday night to get an update on the plans for the pool. They were asked what the neighbourhood pool meant to them.

Thanks , I was looking for an answer about the knock though , the oil pump has to go , you're right .
Answer #2Camster April 01, 2012, 16:23Journeyman
It's no spring chicken-it's twenty years old.Sounds like the crankshaft and/or connecting rod bearings are shot.Time for an overhaul or another motor.If the car has not seen regular oil changes,this could be accelerated wear due to a clogged screen on the oil pump.
Someone could hook up a gauge to the motor and determine if oil pressure is adequate.
(We had a T-Bird with 5.0 that had this same condition-it will only get louder,and eventually blow up)

I had just brought the bronco , so I'm not sure about oil changes . It seems tight , except for the knock . Oil looks new , so I'm looking for a reman or another 5.0 with low miles to put in , thanks .

UBS Whistleblower's $104 Million Award Poses Interesting Conundrum For Would-Be Snitches
Remember Bradley Birkenfeld? He's the guy who single-handedly made the U.S. government's case against UBS and forced the Swiss bank to hand over the names of thousands of tax cheats, which resulted in the US scoring $780 million from UBS and may have inspired some 33,000 Americans to "voluntarily disclose offshore accounts to the IRS, generating more than $5 billion." And yet, despite his assistance, Birkenfeld wasn't immediately thanked for a job well done. Instead, he was sentenced to forty months in prison (fair-ish, considering he showed a few clients how to avoid paying taxes himself) and told to piss off by the Internal Revenue Service, from whom he sought an award, because he was "not forthcoming about his own role in the scheme," even as a Justice Department attorney admitted that "…without Mr. Birkenfeld walking into the door of the Department of Justice in the summer of 2007, I doubt as of today that this massive fraud would have been discovered by the US government" (or as his lawyer put it, "They didn't know how to spell UBS until he showed up. He didn't just give them a piece of the puzzle. He gave them the entire puzzle"). Now, after doing 32 months at Schuylkill Federal Correctional Institution, getting let out early on account of "good-time credit," and living in a halfway house in New Hampshire, Birkenfeld has finally been thrown a bone.
Bradley Birkenfeld, the former UBS AG banker who told the Internal Revenue Service how the bank helped thousands of Americans evade taxes, secured an IRS award of $104 million, an amount his lawyers said may be the largest ever for a U.S. whistle-blower. Birkenfeld told authorities how UBS bankers came to the U.S. to woo rich Americans, managed $20 billion of their assets, and helped them cheat the IRS. He pleaded guilty to conspiracy in 2008, a year after reporting the bank's conduct to the Justice Department, U.S. Senate, IRS and Securities and Exchange Commission. He was released from prison Aug. 1…Birkenfeld, 47, worked at Zurich-based UBS, the largest Swiss bank, for five years. He sought a reward from the IRS of as much as 30 percent of any taxes the agency recovered as a result of his whistle-blowing activities.
Clearly this whole thing should stir up a few questions inside you all, chief among them: how much money would it take to get you to befriend or get yourself employed with some rogue people so you can blow the whistle on them? Would you do any time for it? If so, how much? And are we talking Club Fed or a place where your roommate spoons you every night?
UBS Whistle-Blower Secures $104 Million Award From IRS [Bloomberg]
Former Barclays Employee Is Probably Going To Jail
Before anyone takes to Twitter to give the UK a piece of her mind, though, breathe easy: the misconduct is related to funds used to pay for breast augmentations and other cosmetic enhancements and could even take some of the heat off of Bob Diamond et al, who've yet to be accused of using customer money to pay for lipo.
A bank clerk stole £46,000 to fund a boob job, liposuction and hair extensions to help her achieve her dream of becoming a model. Rachael Claire Martin admitted taking the money over an eight-week period from Barclays Bank in Liskeard, Cornwall, where she worked. The 24-year-old, from St Austell, Cornwall, is thought to have spent £4,000 on breast enlargement and £1,700 on dental work, which included teeth whitening treatment. The mother of one also travelled to Bristol on wild shopping sprees – buying make up and other items before enjoying nights out on the town back at home. While working at the bank, she regularly stole relatively small sums of £2,000 and £1,000, which she siphoned into her own account. On one occasion she managed to take £6,000.
She initially denied 25 separate counts of theft from the bank between September 1 and October 3 in 2010.
But the prosecution charged her with just one count of stealing £46,000 over the same period at Truro Crown Court yesterday and she pleaded guilty…She will face a jail term when she returns to court in September. Police were called when the theft was realised – but she had apparently already spent most of the stolen cash on her appearance, in the hope of realising her modelling dream.

Former Citigroup VP Who Helped Himself To $23 Million Gets 8 Years
Nobody fucks with Count Vikula!
Former Citigroup Vice President Gary Foster was sentenced to 97 months in prison for embezzling almost $23 million from the bank, according to federal prosecutors in Brooklyn, New York. Foster pleaded guilty to bank fraud in September, admitting that he transferred money from various Citigroup accounts to his own at JPMorgan Chase. He concealed his activities by making false accounting entries, according to the government. He used the money to buy real estate and luxury sports cars, including a Ferrari and a Maserati, prosecutors said. The government has seized or restrained property from Foster valued at a total of $14 million. "I executed a scheme to defraud Citigroup," Foster told U.S. District Judge Eric Vitaliano at his plea hearing last year in Brooklyn. "I directed funds to be wired into my personal account at JPMorgan."

Bernie Madoff Was Just Trying To "Change The Way Money Was Managed," Not That Anyone Cares
For about a year now, Bernie Madoff has been holding court with various members of the press about something that's been plaguing him: the fact that few people if any are willing to give credit where credit is due. Yes, he may have pleaded guilty to a $50 billion crime that ruined countless people's lives, including those of his wife and children, one of whom committed suicide as a result, but he did a lot of other stuff too, like run a "successful business" for which he won lots of "industry awards" during his "legitimate years." And, yet, everyone seems to forget all that when his name comes up, much like they conveniently forgot about how Mussolini made the trains run or time, or how Hitler built those wonderful autobahns, or how Ted Bundy made women feel special. And since he's serving a 150 year sentence, Berns has had lots of time to ponder why his years of legitimate achievements go unmentioned and the one thing he keeps coming back to? Irving Picard, who's pulled a fast one on you all, by suggesting that Bernie's crime started wayyyyy before it did, when, in fact, Madoff Securities was only running a Ponzi scheme for barely even 20 years. Examine the evidence Madoff shared with Forbes contributor Diana B. Henriques via email:
Jan. 17, 2011 11:05 A.M. … Also remember that the U.S. Attorney admitted that they had no evidence that the crime started in the 80's and could establish that Montauk and the N.Y. homes in Ruth's name were not purchased with tainted funds …
Mar. 10, 2011 7:35 A.M. … I would love to know what evidence [Picard] has to date my crime back to 1983 … THE FACT IS THAT THERE IS NONE.
8:05 A.M. … I say once again the fraud started in the 90's …
Mar. 18, 2011 9:26 A.M. … I guess I'm obsessed with this START OF CRIME ISSUE.
Don't you see, idiots of the media?! That's the real issue here. Not the crime itself but the start of the crime. Do the math.
Oct. 11, 2011 7:20 A.M. … You can do a back of the envelope calculation as follows. From 1963 I made substantial arbitrage profits for the Picower, Shapiro and Chais families joined by the Levy family in 1970. [M]ost of these profits were reinvested and the amounts compounded. In 1970 Saul Alpern formed his partnerships later [run] by Avellino and Bienes. In 1980 I started trading for [French banker] Albert Igoin and his French and Swiss banking associates. All of these accounts averaged about 20% annually and were involved in various forms of convertible arb using bonds, pfds [preferreds], Rts. [rights] and units. [A]nd ALL WERE LEGITIMATE TRADING. THIS CONTINUED THRU THE EARLY 90'S.
Nov. 24, 2011 6:51 P.M. … When you look at my RIDDLE [in the Nov. 23 letter], consider the fact that there was in fact no crime until I did not have enough capital in the firm to cover the losses. There is your real STORY
The interesting thing here is not that there was an 11-figure fraud, okay? The interesting thing is how long the 11-figure fraud went on. And it stinks to high hell that that slippery fuck Picard and Co. are claiming it dates back to 1983 and that you're all buying it, hook, line and sinker. Come on, people. They're lawyers. Who are you gonna trust, them or a Ponzi schemer? But don't feel sorry for Bernie. Feel sorry for yourselves, for what could have been and what never was.
Near the end of that e-mail the clouds of self-deception close in again, and Madoff turns himself into a pitiful martyr: "I made the tragic mistake of trying to change the way money was managed and was successful at the start, but lost my way after a while and refused to admit that I failed at one point."
HE WAS TRYING TO THE WAY MONEY WAS MANAGED! A legitimate way to make Ponzi scheme payments, before it was tragically snuffed out.
Oct. 11, 2011 7:36 A.M. … I will never get over the distortions being presented by everyone as to the poor and now homeless when in fact they all signed documents when opening their accounts that they were sophisticated and had enough wealth to withstand the possible losses of short term trading. I wish I had saved the hundreds of letters I received thanking me for how I was responsible for their happiness over the years and their pleading with me to keep their accounts open when I tried to close them … when I worried about the wreckage I might cause if I couldn't recover.
Is the REAL STORY that the investor agreements specifically authorized BLMIS to make Ponzi scheme payments (a totally legitimate type of securities transaction, a short term trade if you will)? Unless someone pulls their head out of their ass, the world will never know.
Allen Stanford Puts On Unusually Brave Face While Hearing Verdict Of Guilt
April 7, 2009: The then Sir Allen Stanford chokes back tears over being deprived of being named Forbes' 405th richest person in the world as a result of the Ponzi charges (which he described as "baloney" and informed a reporter using the dirty word, "If you say Ponzi to my face again, I will punch you in the mouth").
March 6, 2012: "A federal jury convicted international financier R. Allen Stanford on 13 of 14 charges of money laundering and fraud in a Ponzi scheme that lost billions of dollars for investors…As the verdict was read Mr. Stanford, wearing a dark suit, turned to where his family members were sitting and appeared to mouth the words, 'It's OK.'"

The defense had asked for 6.5 to 8 years on account of 1) the fact that, they say, Raj only made $7.4 million off his trades and 2) the "unique constellation of ailments ravaging his body" that would result in him dying behind bars if given a sentence "anywhere near" the prosecution's request for 19.5 […]

Yes, I meant colour.
With all the adjectives I lost one....
Sorry, the 100D I assume was being referred to was E100D, Kodak's transparency MP offering. All negative films use remjet.
"2383/3383 Film is coated on a new ESTAR base featuring proprietary Kodak technology that replaces rem-jet with a process-surviving, anti-static layer, and scratch-resistant backing layer. This film has an efficient antihalation layer under the emulsion layers, using patented solid particle dyes that are decolorized and removed during processing."
AFAIK ALL negative film uses a version of rem jet. The first Fuji Movie negative did not but they quickly fell in line.
As you indicated static is a problem, for example 16mm Movie film in 100ft rolls still comes on a metal spool, while Microfilm comes on an almost identical plastic spool.
Colour Negative for movie use is always with rem jet, they have probably been tempted to use it for B&W also but the Labs would have been forced to change their processors.
If you mean ESP, specify it. If you mean ECN specify it. Otherwise it causes confusion.
Obviously that was implied by context, AgX.
HI Ron, Sorry of my post was confusing, I THOUGHT I made it clear that I was referring to the "Print" stock - ECP.
I am not sure of the VERY OLD Ektachrome movie film of the 1970 era that used Process ME-4 may have also had a rem-jet step that was the major difference between ME-4 and plain E-4 not that it matters much at this late date.

Isaiah 53:3-4
March 30, 2015
"He was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with pain. Like one from whom people hide their faces he was despised, and we held him in low esteem. Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we considered him punished by God, stricken by him, and afflicted."

US celebrity Kim Kardashian's October visit to Dubai is set to be showcased in the newest episode of her reality television show, airing in the US this Sunday.
The show, entitled 'Kim Takes Dubai', followed the 31-year-old and her mother as they made their first trip to the Middle East to launch the first overseas store for 'Millions of Milkshakes'.
The LA-born starlet described her visit as "unforgettable" after she was greeted by hundreds of cheering fans during her visit to Dubai Mall.
Prior to her visit, she told Arabian Business that she wouldn't turn down the opportunity to open a Kardashian-branded hotel or night club in Dubai if the opportunity was right.
"I'm just excited to meet new people and see what other business opportunities are out there other than what I've already have got on," she said. "Absolutely [I would look at real estate], if it made sense and there was something there."
The reality TV filed for divorce from her basketball player husband Kris Humphries in November just 72 days after a lavish wedding that was billed as a "fairytale."
Media reports said the Dubai episode of Kardashian's show will show her realising she is enjoying her time away from her husband following a series of arguments.
The 31-year-old, who shot to fame along with her family in the reality TV show 'Keeping up With the Kardashians', was named Hollywood's top earning reality star in 2010, raking in an estimated $6m from her various enterprises. The star lends her name to a host of products including skincare, swimwear and also promotes the weight loss product Quick Trim.

Sprinkler System
We recently purchased a home with an inground sprinkler system (RainBird ESP-6LX+). Last year 4 sprinkler zones were working. This year one zone does not work. We also cannot "locate" a sprinkler head in the non-working zone...bermuda grass has covered it. Would the obstruction with the grass restrict the zone from working...the other two heads in the zone are uncovered?
You might be able to activate the non-working zone by manually turning it on by rotating the valve solenoid counterclockwise slightly until it the zone pops on. Do not unscrew the solenoid completely off. To turn off turn solenoid clockwise until the zone goes off. do not over-tighten. The pop-up sprinklers should be stronger than the grass unless you are experiencing very low pressure for your system. Let us know if you were successful and we can go from there. Aloha
I have been looking for this product/service.I am not sure about the quality or the origin of their offering. Has anyone have looked into this before? If you have any other options you know are worth the time to check out, Sprinkler Systems here. Thanks!
Here is a link that might be useful: Sprinkler Systems
Hunter is one of the top companies in the business. Check a local irrigation company or landscape contractor that utilizes Hunter products or Rainbird for that matter. JMHO Aloha

Best Women's Suits for Work
Women's suits are often part of the professional dress code, and many offer the choice between skirts and dress pants. Although women's suits need to be professional, a variety of fabrics and colors keep wardrobe options fresh and offer you the ability to pair your suit with existing blouses in for a new look. Even if you work in a casual setting, it is wise to have a women's suit on hand for special occasions.
Women's Pants Buying Guide
Women's clothing options have changed over the years. Today's women's fashions include pant styles for almost every occasion, from a morning jog to the evening cocktail hour. With all the choices available, more and more women prefer the comfort and tailored sophistication of pants. Overstock.com offers a selection of women's pants to match any occasion; this women's pants buying guide includes some basic information to help you wade through the options.
Best Women's Pants for the Weekend
After a week of wearing professional clothes for work, dressing casually and comfortably for the weekend just requires a few pairs of women's pants. This does not mean you have to skimp on style. Whether you want to have a dinner out with friends or simply need to run errands, there are plenty of comfortable wardrobe options that do not involve T-shirts and sweatpants. Stay stylish during the weekend by choosing women's pants that fit and pairing them with accessories, blouses and shoes you already own. Wear khaki pants for almost every occasion. Khaki pants are perfect for weekend wear, especially if you want an alternative to jeans. Khaki pants are casual but still appear stylish and come in a variety of lengths. Cropped khaki pants hit at about mid-calf, and capris fall just below the knee. The most flattering style is straight-leg because it gives khakis the appearance of being well-fitted and works with any type of shoe. Find the perfect pair of jeans. Jeans are the ultimate pants for the weekend. Comfortable and versatile, women's jeans come in a variety of washes and colors to go with anything in the wardrobe. Cuts like wide-leg, low-rise, boot-cut and straight-leg allow women of any size and body shape to find a pair of jeans that fit well. While women's jeans may be considered casual, pairing them with heels or wedge shoes and a loose-fitting blouse or sweater can create a more formal or put-together look. To keep jeans casual on the weekend, pair them with flats and a knitted top. Stay comfortable in velour pants. If you prefer to lounge the weekend away or just run a few errands, velour pants are soft and can be worn year-round. Velour pants often come in sets with zip-up hoodies, giving you a simple option for weekend wear. These pants come in a variety of colors, often include pockets and offer a simple drawstring waistband for comfort. Velour pants are also great for working out, so you can easily wear them throughout the day before a trip to the gym or outdoor activity.

Follow these tips to discover the pants that will be both slimming and comfortable.

Hi Everyone! Welcome back to another month of the Gossamer Blue Design Team Blog Hop!! You should have arrived here from the lovely, talented Joy Taylor's blog.

You can still get the stencil in Scrapbook Add-On #2, found right here!Here's how my layout turned out: I'm thinking I might just pull out my paints a little more often...we'll see!

Happy Holidays Everyone!! I'm back today with my very last project for Crate Paper!

Southern Gardening: Shamrocks are good landscape additions
With St. Patrick's Day almost here, I'm reminded of the good old days trying to find lucky four-leaf clovers in my lawn as a kid. Of course, some years it was hard because clover is a weed and my dad would spray to get rid of them.
Clover normally has three leaves, but sometimes a mutation produces a fourth leaf. When I found one, I was sure good luck would come my way. Little did I know that this belief has a long history. Four-leaf clovers were considered an omen of good fortune by ancient Celtic peoples.
