§ 42. Mr. Thorpeasked the Secretary of State for Defence what joint facilities Great Britain shares with Australia in the Cocos Islands; and what proportion of the cost each country pays.
§ Mr. Merlyn ReesNone, Sir.
§ Mr. ThorpeWhile thanking the Minister for the short and cryptic nature of 1819 his reply, may I ask whether we can take it that no public funds are expended on the Cocos Islands for defence purposes?
§ Mr. ReesIf at any time, and it is very rarely, an R.A.F. aircraft lands there, we pay for the petrol.

The Florentine Painters of the Renaissance (With An Index To Their Works) "The Florentine Painters Of The Renaissance" by Bernhard Berenson. Florentine painting between Giotto and Michelangelo contains the names of such artists as Orcagna Masaccio Fra Filippo Pollaiuolo Verrocchio Leonardo and Botticelli. Put beside these the greatest names in Venetian art the Vivarini the Bellini Giorgione Titian and Tintoret. The difference is striking. The significance of the Venetian names is exhausted with their significance as painters. Not so with the Florentines. Forget that they were painters they remain great sculptors forget that they were sculptors and still they remain architects poets and even men of science. They left no form of expression untried.

Foreword: The New Era - Quo Vadis?Jack Patrick SahlUniversity of Akron - School of Law June 9, 2010 Akron Law Review, Vol. 43, 2010 U of Akron Legal Studies Research Paper No. 10-07 Abstract: The Inaugural MBI Symposium's twenty-six participants highlight many important developments and challenges caused by MJP and new technologies. Their assessments and suggestions provide a helpful roadmap for lawyers and regulators to negotiate the increasingly complex, fast-paced, and ethically risky landscape for delivering legal services. Several panelists suggested regulatory reforms that range from the creation of a regulatory framework for lawyers engaged in crossborder practice to the creation of standards for the supervision of offshore outsourced legal services268 and the mining of metadata. Some of the panelists' suggestions and reforms are especially important given the "high [financial] stakes" involved in the international legal services market, where an almost irresistible siren promises to lure more lawyers, who will run the risk of crashing on the shoals of an increasingly fragmented regulatory framework. The increase in MJP, especially in a more globalized setting, and the risks attending new technologies highlight the need for a more unified and collaborative approach to professional regulation. The ABA's creation of the 20/20 Commission represents a timely and significant response by the organized bar to these developments. The profession needs to better educate lawyers about developments involving the globalization of the legal services market and their ethical significance. Education is the key to alerting lawyers to outside regulation by government agencies and others that may threaten traditional values and practices in the delivery of legal services. Simply put, it is in the profession's self-interest to remain informed of outside regulation that may limit counsel's effectiveness in representing clients. If the profession fails to rise to the challenges the panelists have highlighted, its inaction may produce unintended consequences, including encouraging others outside the profession to take action that may affect lawyers negatively. For example, the government may enter into an international trade agreement that limits the scope of the attorney-client privilege as it is understood in the United States. Currently, there is legislation in the United States Senate preventing corporations and limited liability companies from engaging in money laundering and the financing of terrorism and includes lawyers within its scope. The Incorporation Transparency and Law Enforcement Assistance Act would, among other things, enable the Treasury Department "to impose suspicious-activity report requirements upon lawyers." MJP and new technologies are changing traditional notions of how lawyers work and how they are viewed. It is much more common today for lawyers to represent clients whom they have never personally met or to routinely outsource work offshore to lawyers. Lawyers need to be ever mindful of the ethical considerations involved in cross-border practice and the use of new technologies. Devising and implementing new regulatory reforms promises to be difficult and costly. The process will require an ongoing educational effort concerning the increase in MJP and new technologies and their effect on practice. Law schools and the ABA Center for Professional Responsibility should collaborate in taking the lead in these educational endeavors.

Henry Bumstead
Henry Bumstead | |
Born | Lloyd Henry Bumstead 17 March 1915 Ontario, California |
Died | 24 May 2006 | (aged 91)
Occupation | Art director, production designer |
Lloyd Henry "Bummy" Bumstead (March 17, 1915 – May 24, 2006) was an American cinematic art director and production designer. In a career that spanned over fifty-five years he won two Academy Awards: the first for To Kill a Mockingbird, and the second for The Sting. In addition, he was nominated for Alfred Hitchcock's Vertigo and Clint Eastwood's Unforgiven.[1]
Life and career[edit]
Bumstead was born in Ontario, California and, following his graduation from University of Southern California, joined Paramount Pictures in 1948. He learned his trade from Hans Dreier, with whom he worked on a number of films beginning with Saigon. Following Dreier's retirement in 1951 he worked with Hal Pereira, whom Paramount had brought in to replace Dreier. During these early years, Bumstead worked on numerous films, including My Friend Irma, My Friend Irma Goes West, and The Bridges at Toko-Ri. However, his big break came in 1956 when he worked with Pereira on Alfred Hitchcock's remake of The Man Who Knew Too Much. He went on to work on three further Hitchcock films: Vertigo, Topaz and Family Plot.
In 1961, Bumstead left Paramount to join Universal Studios, where he formed a close partnership with Alexander Golitzen. Whilst at Universal he established relationships with George Roy Hill and Clint Eastwood, which began on Slaughterhouse-Five and High Plains Drifter respectively. He went on to work with both men on numerous films.
Bumstead worked on many films during his career, including: Slap Shot, A Little Romance, The World According to Garp, Cape Fear, Unforgiven, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, Space Cowboys, Mystic River, and Million Dollar Baby.
Flags of Our Fathers (2006) and the companion film Letters from Iwo Jima (2007) were Bumstead's final two projects. Bumstead was 91 years old when he worked on these projects. He died before either film was released into theaters, and Flags of Our Fathers was dedicated to him (the credit dedicates the film to him using his nickname "Bummy".)
Bumstead was also instrumental in the design of several theme park attractions and exterior sets at Universal Studios Hollywood and Florida. For Universal Hollywood, he served as set designer for the King Kong attraction (1986) and also assembled the art direction team for the design of Universal Studios Florida where he worked under theme park designer Peter Alexander. For Universal Florida, "Bummy" personally designed (although with his associate Bill Tuntke) the sets for the King Kong Kongfrontation ride designed by Alexander and Bob Ward, and several of the exterior set streets on the "back lot."

Well, for those of you that don't know, the Suns released Dee Brown today. Though I'm guessing you all know that, because seriously… who doesn't spend their Tuesday surfing the net to find out about ex-Jazzsters? Those of you that have also been paying attention to the Jazz know that the Jazz have really been struggling, and could really use a jump-start. I know there's a lot of anti-Boozer sentiments out there, but I'm going to leave them alone because it is my greatest wish that they disappear. (Yeah, right.) Instead, I'll propose something more minor than some blockbuster that would help the Jazz in the short-run (the player/players received in return for trading Booze for pennies on the dollar will be able to play right now while Booze can't) and kill them in the long-run (no way the Jazz get players comparable to what a healthy Booze gives us).
It's quite simple really. What the Jazz really need is a semi-serviceable big man who can be a presence inside for a year or so (though The Koof has been looking solid as of late). I don't know which free agent you could chase after to fill that gap though. The other spot they need help right now is the wings, where the starting duo of CJ Miles & Ronnie Brewer just isn't cutting it, and Kyle Korver's shooting struggles aren't helping. On the other hand, the Jazz have a couple of expendables in Matt Harpring, Jarron Collins (finally healthy, it seems, and an expiring contract) and Morris Almond (expiring contract because his rookie option wasn't picked up). Some might even toss Kyrylo Fesenko or even Miles (if the deadline for not being able to trade him has passed) in there. Almond has shown a willingness to shoot… and shoot a lot. But his lack of other stuff (occasionally he show up in the rebound column) is hurting his chance to play… something that could happen to CJ sometime soon if he doesn't step it up. Now, you're not going to get much of a shooter of some weird combo of No Knees, Flop & Mo Almond (even if you throw Fesenko in there), and probably not much of a shooter straight up for CJ either. (Plus, I don't see the Jazz trading CJ so soon after matching the offer sheet he got from OKC.)
What the Jazz should do, in my opinion, is try to trade 2 (or more) of the 4 guys (CJ can't be packaged, if I remember correctly) for a big. Doesn't have to be an All-NBA team guy or something… just someone that can come in behind Memo (and The Koof, if he shows a solid defensive presence) and maybe divert the opposing guards from driving to the hoop so often. Who's available? I have no idea. Joe Smith of the Thunder is, but I'd pass. If they'd be willing to give up one of their other bigs though, maybe it'd be worth considering (Robert Swift, Johan Petro, Mouhamed Sene). Maybe one of the guys in New Jersey (Sean Williams, Josh Boone). Who knows? Just someone. Why would they take the guys the Jazz are offering? Well, there are a couple of expiring contracts (though relatively small). Or maybe they think they can utilize Mo Almond better than the Jazz are (wouldn't surprise me in the least). Or maybe they want the veteranness & toughness of No Knees. Or maybe they think CJ is worth a look (if you trade CJ for a big, then you release one of the Fesenko/Flop duo). As I see it… if teams are willing to trade for a retired Aaron McKie or Jason Collins or the likes, there will be teams that wouldn't mind No Knees or Flop.
Anyhow, back to the topic at hand (see the title of the post). That leaves the Jazz with an empty roster spot (either by trading 2, or releasing 1 after trading CJ). Oh, and I'm assuming 1 of CJ/Almond is gone now. And the Jazz should use that to bring back Dee. LHM and his "it'll taint Deron" mentality be damned. Deron's is old enough to manage his own life. Oh, and the following assumes that Price at least kind of still has a shot or some sort from some semi-long distance.
–> Yeah, I know… the Jazz have 3 "point-guards" and all. But do they really though? As we all probably know, Ronnie Price isn't really a PG. He's more like an undersized 2-guard… and while I was against playing him there before, I think it might be best to let him play there now. Dee gives you the 3rd PG behind Deron & Brevin Knight. He might not play a lot, but you never know. That's the PG spot.
–> At the 2-guard, you then have some combo of Brewer, Price, Korver, and one of CJ /Mo Almond. Start Brewer, let Price & Korver play behind him (whoever's feeling it gets the playing time, obviously). Or you go small, and start Price. Either way, you now have 1 more shooter to use, without injuring J-Slow's offense by taking out the pass-first PG. When Booze gets back (or, until then with 'Sap playing down low), having the extra shooter on the floor makes it tougher for the D to double anyone inside… which will be huge when the Jazz start playing inside out again (Booze does this better than 'Sap)… currently teams can double because they aren't really afraid of Brewer or CJ shooting a jumper.
–> At the other wing, you have some combo of AK, Brewer, Korver and one of CJ/Mo Almond. If CJ is still around, you can start him. Otherwise, you can start Korver or AK… or Brewer if you're starting Price at the 2-guard. Starting Brewer & Price works because you have the guy that can cut to the hoop (Brewer) and you have the jump-shooter (Price). That allows you to bring AK of the bench, where he's been huge for the Jazz, and Korver as well… both of which J-Slow seems to prefer. If CJ is still around, I don't think he's going to be starting much longer anyways… and off the bench, he can back-up either wing spot as need be.
–> The PF spot is more or less unchanged… Booze starts when he gets back, and 'Sap backs him up. With Booze out, The Koof & AK can both see some time here. As can Okur, depending on the big that is brought in.
–> The rotation at C depends on the big brought in… it'll either be Okur, new guy, The Koof or it'll be Okur, The Koof, new guy. What's important is that now you have a big that'll challenge other guys, without the 'gameplanning to foul'… and hopefully he's someone that can fend off a golf cart if need be.
So your starting line-up is something like Deron, Price, Brewer, Booze/'Sap & Okur. Then AK, Korver/ CJ/Mo Almond and The Koof/new guy are the first guys off the bench, with Brevin taking his spot behind Deron when J-Slow's schedule calls for it. This obviously isn't a very big move… in fact, it probably pales even if compared to the Korver trade of last year. What it does though, is address 2 needs at once… first, the need for a back-up/3rd-string big that can be counted on at times, and second, the need for a shooter that can play given the struggles of CJ & Korver and Brewer's inability to improve his J as much as desired/required. It'll keep defenses a bit more honest, which'll help the inside-out game that J-Slow preaches. And it won't cost all that much… a couple of players who aren't playing anyways. And, I mean… if CJ or Korver is feeling it for a game, then you can sit Price… he'll just be the 3rd-string 2-guard instead of the 3rd-string PG… it won't make much of a difference then. It's another piece, though, that can be used if the Jazz are struggling (which is happening quite a bit now… and could continue as Booze is a while away from returning).
The 12-man 'active player' list would be as follows…
PG: Deron, Brevin, Shorty
SG: Price, Korver, (CJ/Mo Almond when Booze is out)
SF: Brewer, AK
PF: Booze, 'Sap
C: Okur, new guy, The Koof

Yeah, it's the day of double-dippin' today. And, the contradiction couldn't be bigger. In one corner we have one of the oldest and most respected distributions, and in the other corner we have the sometimes controversial but immensely popular relative newcomer. Slackware 13.37 and Ubuntu 11.04 have been released.

I'm betting a week or two after Wayland can actually be used by non-Wayland programmers. Would seem to kind of pointless to switch to a non-usable windowing system.
Perhaps a little misinformed?
How is it non-usable? You can run a nested X11 session on top of Wayland and have all your applications working. It does work with all the open source drivers (Intel, Nouveau, ATI/Radeon, etc.) and it allows you to run multiple X11 sessions for backwards compatibility.
It also makes good use of KMS, it doesn't have all the cruft and hacks that X11/Xorg does have, and it's lean and mean. That's far from pointless IMHO.
Edited 2011-04-28 23:23 UTC
It'll likely be in the repos for the next round of distros, for those who want to play around with new tech. I wouldn't expect it to become the default for anything anytime soon. Think more like 3-5 years out barring major pushes to get it done.
To give you perspective on other major projects: BTRFS has been an option in Fedora for years now, since Fedora 10 if not earlier, if nothing major changes it'll finally hit default install status in Fedora 16 6 versions and 3 years later. I wouldn't expect to see more conservative distros pick it up for another version or two after that.

Trivia Trap is an American game show produced by Mark Goodson Productions. It was created by producer Goodson and originally ran from October 8, 1984 to April 5, 1985 on ABC. The game featured two teams of three contestants each who competed against each other to answer trivia questions in various formats. Bob Eubanks was the host, and Gene Wood announced during the first two weeks. Charlie O'Donnell announced during the third week and was replaced by Bob Hilton for the remainder of the series.
Trivia Trap was the final Mark Goodson-produced game show to have an original format. From then until the acquisition of Goodson's company by the predecessors of FremantleMedia (and thus ceasing to exist), all of the shows produced by Mark Goodson Productions were revivals of previous series.
Two teams of three contestants – the Juniors, who wore blue sweaters and were under 30 years of age; and the Seniors, who wore red sweaters and who were over the age 30 – answered trivia questions to reach a goal of $1,000. The members of the championship team then competed individually to win or share a top prize of $10,000.
First round[edit]
First format[edit]
The teams were shown two rows of monitors with four answers in each row. The team in control chose one of the two rows, and then a question was asked pertaining to those answers. The team members took turns selecting an answer that they thought was wrong, until all three wrong answers were eliminated, or the correct answer was chosen. The team received $50 for selecting each wrong answer, and $300 for eliminating all three incorrect answers. After one team played their question, a new row replaced the one used, and the second team chose which row to play. Each team played two questions.
This format remained in place until December 14, 1984. Mark Goodson decided to rework the format after a focus group from American Film International indicated that the original format of eliminating wrong answers was a gameplay flaw.[1]
Second format[edit]
Beginning on December 17, 1984, the first two rounds of the game were overhauled.
Fact or Fiction?[edit]
The first round consisted entirely of true/false questions.
To start the round, the champions were given a choice of two packets, one with a red mark on it and the other with a black mark. Three questions worth $25 each were asked to the team members. After the champions were done, the challengers played their packet.
Two sets of questions were played, with the challengers given first choice for the second set.
The Trivia Trap Round[edit]
The team in the lead (or the champions, in case of a tie) played first and had a choice of two categories. After the category was chosen, four answers were shown. One contestant answered, then the other two had a choice to agree with that answer or disagree. Whether the contestants agreed or disagreed correctly determined the value of a correct answer. If all of them agreed and the answer was right, the team won $200. If one agreed and it was correct, the team won $100. If everybody disagreed it would be worth $50, but if they disagreed correctly, they would then be able to choose the correct answer in the same way explained above. Like before, the other contestant could disagree to try to save the team. After the question, their opponents played the other category. Each team played two questions.
$1,000 Trivia Race[edit]
Control of this round began with the team in the lead (or the champions if scores were tied or the winners of a coin toss if two new teams played). Three categories were always in play, with a new one replacing the category selected. Eubanks posed a question in the category and the controlling team was given three attempts to answer it. Answering the question correctly earned $100 and kept control, but if after three tries the team did not answer correctly, control passed to the opposing team. There were ten questions in each slot for a total of 30 questions.[2] Except for a very brief period in February 1985, if neither team had reached the $1,000 goal after ten questions the value of each question was doubled to $200. It is currently unknown if the question values would have increased after the 20th question or what would have happened after all 30 questions if neither team reached the $1,000 goal on either occasion.
The first team to reach the goal won the game and advanced to the $10,000 Trivia Ladder.
$10,000 Trivia Ladder[edit]
The contestants played individually rather than as a team, placed at three numbered podiums based on their performance in the Trivia Race. The contestant at the first podium was shown four answers to the first question and could either attempt the question or pass. If the first contestant passed, the second contestant was given the same option. If both contestants passed, the remaining contestant was forced to answer the question. The question was asked, and the player in control attempted to select the correct answer from among the four possible to win $1,000 and the right to attempt the $10,000 question. Answering the question incorrectly eliminated the contestant from the rest of the round. This process repeated for the second question, with one of the remaining two electing to play or pass.
The final question for $10,000 again had four answer choices, but it was played differently from the previous three questions. If one contestant was left, that contestant simply stated his or her answer as before. Otherwise, contestants chose an answer secretly by pushing a button on a hidden panel inside their podiums. Any team member who correctly answered the final question won an equal share of the $10,000 prize. If only one team member answered correctly, he or she won the entire $10,000.
Any team that played the Trivia Ladder five times retired undefeated.

In The Dish: Sour Grapes
Candy sprays, according to someone at Walgreens (says Nanci) "take up less shelf space," so they like them. The 4 inch pump sprays don't exactly jump out at you, but apparently the kids like them as much as Walgreens.
Easy to hide during class and assemblies (take note kids) and can be sprayed on your hand for a lick later. Your dog will like that, well, maybe not judging from Roscoe's reaction (he smacked his lips like he was eating peanut butter and finally licked it off on the other dog).Stay tuned for an upcoming Dish Panel Review to see what delicious flavor (if you can't tell by the color and title) these lads are testing to elicit such sour expressions. Can you guess who said it was their "favorite" flavor?

Hey Jimmy, those two are A dorable. Bullie is the smiling I'm going to say bulldog? How old is the Boston Terrier? Roscoe and Miss Vickers belong to Bug, our premier taste tester (in the Saints cap as an anti-Packer statement ).
I can't say the grape spray tasted better than butt so maybe Bullie would have a point. - 2:29 AM

Hi Jeanna, thanks for visiting Oz Tucker. Yeah. Went to the site of that person. One person. Clearly a case of have post will travel. Candy sprays! What will manufacturers think of next? Don't know if such a product is available in Oz. How many calories/kilojoules to the lick? But I'll bet they're not as much fun as Tim Tams.

Hey Miss Eagle,
One person, one post, but I bet there are a few spammers at work there. I'd also never seen someone use a link in a comment like that. I know I'm too lazy to use HTML.
Let me know about that trade. - 11:35 PM

Historical Version(s) - view previous versions of standard
Significance and Use
4.1 Two factors affecting the quality of a CT image are geometrical unsharpness and random noise. Geometrical unsharpness limits the spatial resolution of a CT system, that is, its ability to image fine structural detail in an object. Random noise limits the contrast sensitivity of a CT system, that is, its ability to detect the presence or absence of features in an object. Spatial resolution and contrast sensitivity may be measured in various ways. ASTM specifies spatial resolution be quantified in terms of the modulation transfer function (MTF) and contrast sensitivity be quantified in terms of the contrast discrimination function (CDF) (see Guide E1441 and Practice E1570). This test method allows the purchaser or the provider of CT systems or services, or both, to measure and specify spatial resolution and contrast sensitivity.
1. Scope
1.1 This test method provides instruction for determining the spatial resolution and contrast sensitivity in X-ray and γ-ray computed tomography (CT) images. The determination is based on examination of the CT image of a uniform disk of material. The spatial resolution measurement is derived from an image analysis of the sharpness at the edge of the disk. The contrast sensitivity measurement is derived from an image analysis of the statistical noise at the center of the disk.
1.2 This test method is more quantitative and less susceptible to interpretation than alternative approaches because the required disk is easy to fabricate and the analysis is immune to cupping artifacts. This test method may not yield meaningful results if the disk image occupies less than a significant fraction of the field of view.
1.3 This test method may also be used to evaluate other performance parameters. Among those characteristics of a CT system that are detectable with this test method are: the mid-frequency enhancement of the reconstruction kernel, the presence (or absence) of detector crosstalk, the undersampling of views, and the clipping of unphysical (that is, negative) CT numbers (see Air Force Technical Report WL-TR-94-40212). It is highly likely that other characteristics as well can be detected with this test method.

SUBJECTS DISCUSSED: Establishing the St. Anthony Falls Heritage Board; the Minnesota Historical Society's involvement in Minneapolis riverfront revival, including the re-opening of the Stone Arch Bridge; the fire at the Washburn Mill and the preservation of the ruins; developing and building the Mill City Museum. Nina Archabal arrived in Minnesota in 1965, just as riverfront milling had shut down. Beginning in the 1980s, John Wood and others at the MHS voiced concerns about the preservation of the St. Anthony Falls Historic District and its three landmarks - the Washburn Crosby Mill, Pillsbury A Mill and Stone Arch Bridge. The St. Anthony Falls Heritage Board was established in 1988 to bring the myriad entities involved in the riverfront together and to give history a seat at the table. The board spearheaded the opening of the Stone Arch Bridge as a pedestrian/bicycle route, interpreted history along a riverfront trail, and, eventually, told the history of milling in the Mill City Museum.

This is truly VERY easy and VERY delicious. I made this because this week the produce guy had key limes. I started squeezing them by hand, but soon figured out that a half of a key lime will fit in my garlic press. And the holes are small enough that you don't have to worry about the seeds. (Just a tip if you have happen to want to use fresh key limes.)
Excellent with homemade crust and real whipped cream!
good stuff! I did it in lemon.. it was divine. Thanks for sharing!

German Chancellor Angela Merkel's party will not currently initiate further legislation to allow equal rights for gay couples, following a supreme court ruling which has caused controversy within her party.
Some members of the conservative party had argued that the party should move forward with granting further rights such as equal tax rights, as opposed to waiting to be forced into action, reported the Associated Press.
Resistance however, was drawn from social conservatives worried about alienating traditional supporters ahead of elections in September.
The CDU party's general secretary Herman Groehe said on Monday that party leaders had agreed to not currently push more legislation, and have said they will wait for the court to rule.
Opposition parties and gay activists have accused the Christian Democratic Union of holding back on equality for gay couples.

1956 Ford F-100 - Sub Par
Written by on January 15, 2003 Another Effie From One of the MastersSub par is good, right? It is in golf at least, one of the only sports were the less points you rack up the better. Above par in this case would mean that you really weren't that good which is definitely not the case with this '56 F-100 owned by Jeff Mann. Jeff knows about such things as his day job revolves around building golf courses.
Jeff has always had an interest in classic Ford pickups but never really had the time to pursue any projects. His job takes him all across the United States and he's always on the lookout for classic tin. It wasn't until he was in Southern California working on a course that fate happened to take over. It seems that the engine in one of the service trucks he was working with gave out, so Jeff picked up a truck classified magazine looking for a replacement engine when he spied a '56 F-100 for sale. With some time on his hands he went to look at it and ended up making a deal.
Jeff knew that he wasn't going to have time to rebuild the old Ford himself, so he started investigating builders. Hacks are common in the game of golf, but Jeff wanted a pro and found one once he contacted the Bobco crew.
In typical Bobco fashion, the Effie was blasted apart completely to analyze exactly what they were starting with. Bobco found a fairly sound body and a frame that had already been equipped with a Volare front suspension but the install was deemed less than perfect ,so it was eventually cut away to make room for a Camaro clip. The rest of the frame was cleaned up and painted black because Jeff intends to drive the truck so he wasn't interested in a color-matched and smooth chassis.
A GM Performance Parts Ram Jet made its way under the hood to provide reliable and powerful motivation. Bobco swears by these engines, stating that the ease of installation and driveability are hard to beat. The rest of the drivetrain consists of tried and true components. A Turbo 350 handles shifting duties while a Ford 9-inch puts the power to the ground.
Bobco decided that this truck should rely on its looks to get by. Looking at the finished product it is hard to imagine that it could pull in anywhere and not be noticed. No question it's sub par, or above par, depending how you want to look at it.

About Brig. General Andrew Porter (USA)
Andrew Porter (July 10, 1820 – January 3, 1872) was an American army officer who was a brigadier general in the Union Army during the American Civil War. He was an important staff officer under George B. McClellan during the 1862 Peninsula Campaign, serving as the Provost Marshal of the Army of the Potomac.
Early life and career
Porter was born in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. He was a grandson of Revolutionary War Andrew Porter; son of George Bryan Porter; and a second cousin of Mary Todd Lincoln. His younger first cousin, Horace Porter, also served as a Union general. He attended the United States Military Academy at West Point, New York, for six months in 1836.
He served in the Mexican-American War as a first lieutenant in the 1st Mounted Rifles. Within a year, he was promoted to captain and cited for gallantry, being brevetted two grades to lieutenant colonel. Porter spent the next fourteen years serving at various posts and forts on the frontier. He fought a duel in Texas with future Confederate general James J. Archer, whose second was Thomas J. Jackson, later "Stonewall" Jackson. Porter married Margaretta Falconer (Margarite) Biddle (1825–1913) of the Biddle family. Her father was military officer and Michigan politician John Biddle (1792–1859). Her nephew was John Biddle (1859–1936), who became Superintendent of the United States Military Academy.
Civil War service
On the outbreak of the Civil War he was serving as a colonel of the 16th U.S. Infantry. He was appointed as a brigadier general in May 1861, and commanded the 1st Brigade, 1st Division at First Bull Run. He served as Provost Marshal of the District of Columbia, and was then appointed as Provost Marshal General of the Army of the Potomac in the Peninsula Campaign. In April 1864 he mustered out for health reasons.
Porter moved to Paris, France, in an attempt to improve his health. However, he died at his home there in 1872, and his remains were returned to the United States for burial in Elmwood Cemetery in Detroit, Michigan.
His son John Biddle Porter was born September 5, 1858, and died June 21, 1915. His cousin Horace Porter (1837–1921) also was a general in the civil war.
