I would not describe myself as an avid fisher by any means, but was intrigued by the idea of catching some fish for some extra sustenance along the trail.I'd like to hear everything that I have to know about this:-What permits are required-What type of rod is best-What fish I'd plan to catch-How often/Where, etc.I'd love to hear your advice and please be nice. =) I've never ventured into this territory before.
Well, I THINK I can answer at least two of those for you.I'm fairly sure that you will just need a california fishing license (obtained pretty much anywhere that sells fishing stuff, walmart included).as for the type of fish you'd be seeing, I would venture to say trout, lots and lots of trout. You may see different types of trout, from rainbow to golden, but I would venture to say you'll be seeing only trout.I've never hiked the JMT before though, so I'm not sure about where you can fish, I just know I've done a lot of trout fishing in the area over the years.Asking what the best fishing setup is like asking what the best jacket is, here on the forums. There are going to be a lot of different opinions. Most will probably say a fly fishing setup because thats what they do around here, but I like spinning reels and telescoping rods. You can read a lot about both types here on the fishing forums, and sort of see what the benefits and cons are of each.

Hi Paul,you can purchase a California fishing license online hereAs a non resident you will have to pay for a ten day license as much as us Californians pay for an annual license.Last year on the JMT my sons and I used two expensive flyfishing poles and a cheap spin fishing pole with small Mepps and Thomas lures. The spin fishing pole got on average twice as many trout as the flyfishing poles together. Having said that I will nevertheless take this year a Tenkara Hane (a flyfishing pole without a reel) to save weight. Given our experience from last year it should be sufficient to provide me with that extra protein.Good Luck on your hike,Manfred
There are plenty of places to fish on the JMT and two years ago I met two men that were fishing the JMT. They were spending a couple of months and when I ran into them heading up to Muir Pass they were happy as can be. They certainly weren't in a hurry.
Paul,I answered only your first three questions in my original response. The answer to your last is basically -- all the time, everywhere.We ate almost every day trout for dinner (sometimes we were to high up to have a fire). The trout are not very large, but there are plenty to catch. Have a look at the last seven pictures at this link to see the size of the trout and what our dinners looked like. Those were were caught at Heart Lake and Selden Lake.Enjoy the JMT!
Oh my goodness. This making me more and more excited at an alarming rate. Thanks a lot guys.Any suggestions on a moderately priced lightweight spinning reel rod?
We got that kit at Big 5 at a sale for $15. The pole weighs 2.35 oz and the reel with line weighs 6.4 oz. The collapsed length of the pole is 13.5 inch. The kit comes in a protective case (which we left at home due to its weight of 13 oz).It is a totally cheap pole, but for the little trout it was very efficient.Any kit like that should do on the JMT.
Anyone ever used or heard about these rods? "Pen fishing rod extreme" @ http://penfishingrods.com/shop/index.phpThey look perfectly small and light and surprisingly good quality.

I've found a couple of threads on this subject. NM.
Since you're going to be using a spinning rod/ reel combo... I would suggest a few other things to make your life happier...having said this you can probably buy the stuff off the shelf and still have a good time....Use no heavier than 4lb test. 2 lb will work even nicer ;). The stuff that comes on the reels is generally 6lb and its been sitting on th rod for ages. Trout have extremely good eyesight and you will get more strikes with 2lb than even 4lb but you'll lose more lures. Take the lures as recommended above. When using spin gear my favorite all time lure is a kastmaster. Try in 1/8oz or so.. If you're catching to eat, pink power TROUT worms will work wonders. Also try some black woolybuggers in the fly fishing section and hook it up on the same rig. ThAt can be like trout candy.Look into using a water filled bubble to get some distance in casting...But you may wnt to stick to 4lb test if you do...HthJoe
Anyone ever used or heard about these rods? "Pen fishing rod extreme" @ http://penfishingrods.com/shop/index.phpThey look perfectly small and light and surprisingly good quality.Yeah. The wife got me one several years ago as a joke. I got a UL spinning reel and reworked the seat to make it fit. I caought a bunch of average sized trout (7-12") on it. I nailed one really nice fish, ~18-22" but broke the tip. Even with two pound, it is not up to helping much with casting or playing a larger fish...too short. And too fragile, considering I broke the tip with two pound test. It appears to be solid at the tip section. I repaired it with an older graphite section and used it for several outings, since. For $10, it is worth the slight weight hit because of the ultra small size. The reel was larger, even though it was the smallest available at the time. The crank is larger than the reel.
I have the 61 " version and really like it. I take a fly reel and spinning reel for about 8 oz. The rod is delicate but you can catch large fish. I caught a 20" + trout on 2 lb line. You set the drag low and take your time. I especially like the fact that I can keep my fly set up intact and just collapse the rod. In under a minute I can have it out and be casting.
The one O am using is just about 1m (39") in length.
I have been backpacking all over the sierras around the JMT for years, with the main reason being to fish. You can fish juuuuust about anywhere along the route as long as you have a California fishing license. As far as the type of fish...you will catch only trout. Brown and rainbow trout in the lower elevations, brooks in the middle elevation (7,000 and up) and there are golden trout in the higher elevations (above 9,000) in the southern parts of the trail. There will be trout in just about every stream and lake....some better than others. You will know if they are there...you can see them, and at sunrise and sunset they feed on the surface and you will see the rings on the water they make.It is not unusual to catch several dozen fish in a day if you are trying and in the right spots. The average size of a trout you will be catching is around 6-12 inches. The higher the elevation, the smaller the trout...typically.I would recommend a Shakespear 4'6'' telescopic rod. Like this http://www.amazon.com/Shakespeare-Travel-Casting-4-Feet-6-Inch/dp/B0000AUWG3Its really light weight and packs small. I get a small cardboard postal tube from the post office and it fits the rod perfectly to protect the rod.Match that with the smallest spinning real you can find, and put no more than 4lb test on it. I use flys with that set up. If you get a bubble that you can fill with water and then tie a barrel swivel with a 3ft leader. Use a size 14 size fly. My favorite is a tan elk hair cadis. The fly is good because it is single hooked, not a treble (triple)hook. its easier to get out, and they dont swallow it so you can easily throw them back if they are too small or ya just wana have some fun and do catch and release. Fill the bubble with water...the more water, the more weight the further you will cast. So fill accordingly (stream vs lake). Whatever you wana keep just clean and cook directly on the fire. I like to get a hot bed of coals going....lay a row of sticks (each about a quarter inch thick) on top of the coals. Cook the trout on both sides till the skin chars. If cooked right the spine and all the bones will just peel out like butter.Hope that helps a little. PM me if you have more questions
I have used one of the Shakespeare Travelmates for a number of years. Despite their low cost they have actually held up very well over time. I like a spinning rod for the versatility. If the fish are biting flies, you can use the casting bubble method of fly fishing. http://globalflyfisher.com/fishbetter/bubble.htm This is especially helpful when fishing lakes where you won't have much room to backcast.
Thanks for the link. Has anyone tried hand fishing that's mentioned in the article? I'll be doing the JMT in 15 days so I'm not sure how much time (or skill) I'll have to fish. But if I wind up at a campsite and see the fish tauntingly close I could at least amuse myself with it. Seems easy enough to just bring some line and flies.
Josh,At some point it's almost not worth it. Keeping track of some line and flies so you may throw it out there for a few minutes one evening is more of a hassle than it's worth. It's also just not that fun fishing with only a line in your hand. That's fun when your a kid on any water (especially if you found the line and lure) but a lightweight rod is so much more versatile and enjoyable. I'd truly say if you're trying to see if you like fishing, the sierra backcountry is a great place to try that out. for 8 oz (and little in investment (I'd try to borrow a rod/reel combo from a neighbor or family member personally) you can have all you need to really see if fishing is for you.
I just finished up a section of the JMT and I found a little time to fish near Sapphire Lake and the Middle Fork of the Kings River. I brought a 12' Iwana, 2 dry flies, 1 wet fly, and some tippet. Below are pictures of Grouse Meadow and a Golden Trout caught with an elk hair caddis:

Wigan Athletic boss Roberto Martinez is urging Franco di Santo to pen a new contract.
Di Santo, 23, has been named in Argentina coach Alejandro Sabella's squad for the friendly against Saudi Arabia in Riyadh later this month alongside the likes of Lionel Messi and Sergio Aguero.
Martinez said: "We haven't even looked into it yet in detail but both parties know what to do next. I'm pretty confident.
"Franco needs to carry on fulfilling his potential with Wigan. We don't want this call-up to break his development and all of a sudden put things into people's heads.
"His next step is to be an important player for Argentina. We're all looking forward to seeing him achieve that transformation while he is at Wigan.
"One day I'm sure Franco will be ready to challenge in a team to win the title or win the Champions League but he's not there yet.
"At the moment we're only talking potential. He has absolutely everything but now is the time he wants to show it consistently. We don't want to upset his development."

Hey godaddygo! I thought you dropped off the planet! You said you'd been meaning to head up to Lemonade Peak anyway, right?
I wasn't about to ask any questions about the Vapor... I just figured you had second thoughts about giving it away and I wouldn't blame you. No hurries.

It's looking like this has at least enough interest to start planning and make a date.
I've never tried to herd cats.... that sounds like an adventure in itself!
Let's be clear....
wasn't having any problems. I think that hill has something against either KTMs or trials tires, but Paul made it up a little less-far every time he tried. I doubled back to see where he was and only found a helmet. I shut off my bike to listen and all I heard was muddled curse words off in the distance.

This sounds fun to me. I would have to decide which group to ride with.
I think Bad Tom is over south of Wallace. Lemonade is directly south of Pinehurst, only 6 1/2 miles from the Kootenai county line. That area is one of the best kept secrets of Idaho's trails. Everyone heads to Wallace to ride because the trails are easily accessible and popular, but with a little digging, you uncover a whole jackpot of crazy trails that only the locals ride around Pinehurst and eastern Kootenai County.

Well, this is just a quick little animation I did w/ characters I developed myself - along w/ about 11 others.
I also came up with a name for this cartoon "Bad Idea Buddies" (c)
This little skit features: Gloomy - the Raccoon, and Whiskers - the Cat.
this was the first animation I was able to finish, from beginning to end. so, I hope you like it.
and Please, If there's anything I can Improve on - let me know, I want honest opinions. :)
Rated 3 / 5 stars
Not bad...
Really, it isn't that bad... all it needs is a little bit more animation, a longer run time, and removal of that infamous background noise.
(a tip: you can usually remove background noise in audacity by recording about 10 seconds of "silence" and then recording your audio. Then using the background noise filter, select that 10 seconds as the noise, and tell it to filter the entire file. and lou and behold, no "Noise"!)
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
You know what
make em just a bit longer and work on the lip synching and it would be really good.
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
There's a lot of bad things out here on newgrounds, and this is one of the better things put out. :) It is still rough around the edges with the audio and everything, but I see potential, so PrOps! (And yes i will fail my english test :) )
Rated 1 / 5 stars
My no fun?
The pacing, audio and colors were terrible. YOU'RE also going to fail YOUR next English test.
..."My no fun?" < where are you getting that from?
The name of this Animation was: "Your no fun."
Rated 4 / 5 stars
Nice animating! :)
The only problem I had with it was the audio quality. Maybe edit your clips so that I won't hear a click at every line. It was good though.
Thanks, and ya - I know what you mean w/ the audio. I guess I'll have to get a better Mic or something. :P

ST. LOUIS, July 30, 2013 - Computers and smartboards are a common staple in today's classrooms, but now with programs such as "bring your own device" (BYOD) to school, smartphones and tablets are seeing increased use in schools as well. As these devices transition between home and the classroom, it's clear that the use of these technologies is evolving from a trend to a necessity, even among the youngest students. According to the American Optometric Association's (AOA) 2013 American Eye-Q® survey, 85 percent of parents indicate their children use an electronic device up to four hours per day.
This is no surprise as the survey also indicates 41 percent of children have their own smartphone or tablet and 32 percent use both e-books and textbooks at school. Additionally, 66 percent of children use a computer or tablet to do homework or study. With the consistent use of electronic devices throughout the day and evening, children of all ages can face a number of visual challenges.
"When children stare at screens for hours each day, it may cause visual discomfort that can interfere with their ability to focus and learn," said Dr. Kimberly Friedman, AOA spokesperson and pediatric vision specialist. "As a mom and an eye doctor, I know first-hand just how important it is for school-aged children to receive comprehensive eye examinations prior to heading back into a classroom."
Despite the increase in technology use, only one-third (31 percent) of parents have strong concerns that their children may damage their eyes as a result of prolonged exposure. Although ongoing use won't damage vision, regular, lengthy use of technology at school or for homework can lead to a temporary vision condition called computer vision syndrome (CVS). Symptoms of CVS can include eye strain, headaches, fatigue, burning or tired eyes, loss of focus, blurred vision, double vision or head and neck pain. The AOA urges students to rest their eyes by following the 20-20-20 rule. When using technology or doing near work, take a 20-second break, every 20 minutes and view something 20 feet away.
As children of all ages become more frequent users of technology, eye doctors are increasingly warning parents about the potential signs or symptoms of CVS or undiagnosed vision problems that may arise and indicate the need for an eye exam:
Preschool and Kindergarten: At home, little ones may begin to play games on a tablet or smartphone, while at school they tend to learn early lessons about how to use a computer. The AOA suggests limiting tech time to two hours or less each day and increasing the font size of the text on the screen in order to make it easier on eyes. During this stage, parents should be aware of physical signs that may flag a potential vision problem and ask themselves the following questions:
Elementary School: At this age, children continue to use smartphones, play with portable gaming devices, and spend hours on computers at school and at home. Encourage kids to use cell phones only for quick tasks such as texting, and to position all devices half an arm's length away from the eyes and slightly below eye level. Children should also take frequent breaks and move around or change positions often while working on a computer. Parents of this age group should ask children and themselves the following questions to learn more about the health of their vision:
Middle and High School: With computers becoming a staple at school and for homework, along with increased smartphone usage, middle and high schoolers should be reminded that computers should be positioned 20 to 28 inches away from their eyes, and the top of the screen should be at eye level, allowing them to look down at the screen. When at home, kids should use ergonomic desk areas or gaming chairs and to prevent glare on screens, incorporate low-wattage light bulbs or drapes in the room. As for digital devices, brightness or background color settings should be adjusted to keep vision comfortable. Parents can stay involved with their older children's vision by knowing:
"I look for a variety of indicators using various tests and instruments during a comprehensive eye exam," said Dr. Friedman. "But parents play an important role by alerting their eye doctor of certain behaviors and warning signs that may indicate a problem between eye exams."
Additional warning signs parents should watch out for include:
The AOA also warns that one in four children has an undiagnosed vision problem simply because they may not recognize that their eyesight isn't optimal or is changing. "Comprehensive eye exams are one of the most important investments a parent can make to help maximize their child's education and contribute to overall health and well-being, especially since some vision problems may not have warning signs," added Dr. Friedman. "Unfortunately, parents and educators often incorrectly assume that if a child passes a school screening, their vision is fine."
Beginning in 2014, pediatric vision care will be one of the Affordable Care Act's Essential Health Benefits. This means millions of children will gain direct access to local optometrists for comprehensive eye exams and treatment, including medical eye care, through health insurance. The AOA recommends that a child's first eye exam take place at six months of age. Unless problems are detected, exams should then be given at age three, again before a child enters kindergarten and yearly thereafter. To find an optometrist in your area, or for additional information on children's vision and the importance of back-to-school eye exams, please visit www.aoa.org.
About the survey:
The eighth annual American Eye-Q® survey was created and commissioned in conjunction with Penn, Schoen & Berland Associates (PSB). From March 15-18, 2013 using an online methodology, PSB interviewed 1,000 Americans 18 years and older who embodied a nationally representative sample of U.S. general population.

About the American Optometric Association (AOA):
The American Optometric Association, a federation of state, student and armed forces optometric associations, was founded in 1898. Today, the AOA is proud to represent the profession of optometry, America's family eye doctors, who take a leading role in an individual's overall eye and vision care, health and well-being. Doctors of optometry (ODs) are the independent primary health care professionals for the eye and have extensive, ongoing training to examine, diagnose, treat and manage disorders, diseases and injuries that affect the eye and visual system, providing two-thirds of primary eye care in the U.S. For information on a variety of eye health and vision topics, and to find an optometrist near you, visit www.aoa.org.

Eldaafer & Prince Will I Am Meet Again In Pan American
Eldaafer & Prince Will I Am Meet Again In Pan American
By Jack Will
Jockey J.L. Castanon rides Eldaafer for trainer Diane Alvarado in the 50th edition of the 1 ½ miles turf fixture as he makes his second start since the Breeders' Cup. The son of A.P. Indy was a $20,000 claim in early 2009 and scored his first major victory in the Brooklyn Handicap (G2) at Belmont Park that spring. He won the Marathon by 1 ¾ lengths going 1 ¾ miles, but was never a factor finishing eighth in the Donn Handicap (G1) at 1 1/8 miles here on Feb. 5.
Eldaafer's owner-trainer team will also be represented in the race by 6-year-old Beckham Bend with Jeremy Rose named to ride. The son of Invisible Ink was a wire-to-wire winner of an allowance race over the course at 1 7/16 miles on Feb. 26 in his first start since late August at Delaware Park.
Prince Will I Am had a bad day at the Breeders' Cup after his wild run through the stretch, but has fared much better in two starts since for trainer Michelle Nihei. The son of victory Gallop won the 'off the turf' W.L. McKnight Handicap (G2) at Calder over a 'sloppy' track on Dec. 18 and the Mac Diarmida Stakes (G2) going 1 3/8 miles on turf over the Gulfstream course on Feb. 19. Jockey John Velazquez will have the mount
The two Breeders' Cup rivals face several solid contenders in the field of seven drawn for the Pan American, including Stella Perdomo's 9-year-old veteran Musketier with jockey Alex Solis in the saddle. The roan/gray German-bred by Acatenango finished a game third with a big rally in the stretch of the Mac Diarmida, beaten only 1 ¼ lengths in his first start since October.
Musketier ran well in his only two appearances last year, winning the Elkhorn Stakes (G2) at the Keeneland spring meet and finishing second in the Sycamore Stakes (G3) at the Keeneland fall meet, both 1 ½ miles turf tests. Attfield won the Pan American twice in the '80s with Selous Scout in 1985 and Carotene in 1988.
Also coming back in the Pan American after a good effort in the Mac Diarmida are Ellie Boje Farm and partners' 7-year-old gelding Rahy's Attorney and Bill Farish's 6-year-old Pool Play, second and fourth, respectively, behind Prince Will I Am. Emma Jayne Wilson rides Rahy's Attorney for trainer Ian Black and Patrick Husbands has the mount on Pool Play for trainer Mark Casse.
Completing the field is Wildenstein Stable's 7-year-oild Irish-bred Loup Breton to be ridden by Jose Lezcano for trainer Todd Pletcher. The son of Anabaa finished seventh last out in the Fair Grounds Handicap (G3) on Feb. 19, beaten three lengths by the winner in his first start since July at Del Mar.

Audience Choice Award
for Outstanding Season!
When Artistic Director Kenny Leon and Managing Director Jane Bishop teamed up in 2002 to design a new theatre, they envisioned a smartly-managed, inclusive theatre company that would achieve both local and national impact. Thanks to a tremendous outpouring of support, their vision has quickly turned into reality.
True Colors Theatre Company
launched its inaugural three-play season in October 2003 with a critically-acclaimed production of August Wilson's classic work, Fences. The ever-popular play Steel Magnolias by Robert Harling and the gospel musical Tambourines to Glory by Langston Hughes rounded out the first season. Other highlights to date include a reading of Samm-Art Williams' Brass Birds Don't Sing as part of Atlanta's First Glance Festival and a sold-out benefit reading of Valerie Boyd's book, Wrapped in Rainbows: The Life of Zora Neale Hurston.
The name True Colors Theatre Company reflects a promise to search for truth and clarity. Truth comes not from focusing on what we look like but rather from examining our true colors, who we are as a country and as individuals. By understanding our true colors, we can better understand each other and how we are to live on the planet together. Turning the traditional model for major American theatres on its head, True Colors puts Negro-American classics at its core and branches out from there, including plays and playwrights from a variety of times, cultures and perspectives.
True Colors Theatre Company's mission is creating a moveable feast of theatre grounded in the rich canon of African-American classics and branching out to include bold interpretations of world drama and a strong commitment to diverse new voices. Central to this mission is performing the great works of African-American theatre, making sure that powerful classics such as A Raisin in the Sun and The Amen Corner remain available to new generations of Americans. Bold new interpretations of other classics that speak to our humanity like Medea and Anthony and Cleopatra will run alongside world premieres of works from diverse voices such as Pearl Cleage, Arthur Miller, Regina Taylor, Athol Fugard, Jose Rivera, and Nilo Cruz. True Colors is also committed to fostering new works and new voices, helping to develop those early-career writers who are creating tomorrow's classics today.
True Colors Theatre Company intends to be an important voice in the American discussion of diversity, supporting and propelling individuals and institutions in their quest for understanding. Operationally, the company will strive to remain fiscally sound and small enough that every individual who works there can be heard, be accountable, get better at what they do, and live out True Colors' core values.

About My Shower Caps
So Pretty shower caps are meticulously hand sewn using quality fabrics. I use extra width braided swimwear quality elastic rather than your average elastic for longevity of the product. This also creates a comfortable fitting shower cap.
Most importantly of all, they are WATERPROOF and they CAN get wet! My shower caps are lined with a soft durable plastic. The fabrics used are generally quick drying (and they look gorgeous just hanging around too!)
If you ever feel that they need a wash, a gentle hand wash is fine. To look after your shower cap, all they need is to be hung up to dry after each use.
My shower caps are an oversized design and can accommodate extra long hair. Even young girls are catered for with a Junior size - now there's something that is hard to come by (and little girls just love them!)
I am always open to suggestions and special requests, please do ask me! For example, if you see a fabric/trim listed but would prefer a different combination of colour, in most instances I can create this for you. In particular with the Junior designs or even the Mens Range, if there is a fabric in the Ladies range you would prefer this can also be arranged - all you need to do is ask!
Below is an example of hair length that can easily be accommodated in my shower caps. As you can see there is still plenty of room for even longer hair....but for seriously long hair I can always create an XL sized shower cap for you. Just contact me and we can go from there...

Lewis blames lack of U.S. sales
-- just under 5,000 dolls sold in the last year -- solely on phobia about
breast-feeding, something widely considered the healthiest way to feed a baby. "There's no doubt about that," he said. "The whole idea is that there's still some taboos here. They're difficult to justify and difficult to explain but they're out there. You mention breast and people automatically start thinking Janet Jackson or wardrobe malfunctions and all sorts of things that have absolutely nothing to do with
breast-feeding." Lewis considers Breast Milk Baby "very much less sexualized" than Barbie dolls or the sassy Bratz pack. Olds, who lives in New York City, agreed, though she thinks the doll's full retail price is too high. "That's my only objection to it. It's a lot of money, but people spend a lot of money on their children in all sorts of ways." Haven't little girls been mimicking the act of breast-feeding with their baby dolls for centuries without benefit of accoutrement? "Why do we need anything with bells and whistles? Why did we need a Betsy Wetsy? Children like toys that do things," Olds said, invoking one of the first drink-and-wet dolls created back in 1935. "So this doll makes noises. She burps, she cries, she sucks very noisily. Big deal." Lincoln Hoppe, a Los Angeles actor and father of five -- all breast-fed -- said a young child who becomes a big sibling and sees mom nursing might enjoy the doll just fine. "After all, they're going to imitate mom anyway using whatever doll they've already got," he said. But how about on play dates or just out and about in public? "It's already hard to tell a child they can't take 'that' toy with them to their sibling's soccer game." he said. "There may be a time and place for this doll, but I find the idea kind of creepy."

Tucker has a star-studded lineup of sportscar and open-wheel drivers for the 12 Hours of Sebring.
Sebring, Fla. - Scott Tucker and Level 5 Motorsports will be aiming to rewrite the history books this weekend, as the defending American Le Mans Series presented by Tequila Patrón P2 champions go for their fourth consecutive victory in the Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring Fueled by Fresh From Florida.
As the longest and most physically demanding race on the ALMS schedule, preparation is key to success on the 3.7-mile, 17-turn circuit, created from a former World War II airfield in 1952. Now celebrating its 61st anniversary, Sebring is considered to be one of world's most prestigious endurance races, and oftentimes is even tougher to win than the famed 24 Hours of Le Mans.
For Tucker and his Level 5 organization, success at Sebring hasn't come easy. The Wisconsin-based team overcame the challenges of new car dramas to take the inaugural PC class victory in its ALMS debut in 2010. The following year saw another trip to victory lane but this time with a new Honda-powered P2 car, also in its class debut. 2012 marked a repeat win in P2 and an impressive fourth place overall finish, the highest of any ALMS entry in the combined World Endurance Championship event.
This year, Level 5 has returned with a pair of Honda Performance Development ARX-03b cars with a star studded driving squad. Joining team principal Tucker, a nine-time national driving champion, in the Siemens/Alpina Watches/Ohiya Casino Resort-sponsored entries are open-wheel standouts Ryan Briscoe, Simon Pagenaud and Ryan Hunter-Reay, as well as sportscar veteran Marino Franchitti.
All five drivers are former ALMS winners, including reigning IZOD IndyCar Series champion Hunter-Reay, who teamed with Tucker to take class honors at Sebring in 2011. Franchitti has five victories and more than 20 podium finishes to his credit, including a second place finish in last year's Petit Le Mans with Level 5.
While newcomers to Level 5, both Briscoe and Pagenaud also need no introduction. The 31 year-old IndyCar ace was previously with Penske Racing's Porsche RS Spyder program, which saw the Australian native take four ALMS class victories in only 16 career starts. Pagenaud, the 2012 IndyCar Rookie of the Year, is a former ALMS LMP championship winner and one of HPD's lead development drivers.
"We're fortunate to have such a strong lineup for Sebring," Tucker said. "I don't think you could ask for anyone better. They're all champions in their own right and have worked very hard to get where they are today. It's great to have Ryan Hunter-Reay and Marino Franchitti back with us and we welcome Ryan Briscoe and Simon Pagenaud to the team. We know it won't be easy going for our fourth straight Sebring win but I feel that we have everything in place to give it our best shot."
Level 5 and its partners have worked tirelessly during the off-season to perfect their P2 package. It's included an extensive testing program with HPD to develop its new direct injection system for the 2.8-liter twin-turbo V6 engine. Another change for 2013 comes with the return of Michelin as its tire partner, which Level 5 had a successful relationship with for its first two seasons in the ALMS.
Both the new engine developments and Michelin tires were put to the test last Saturday at Sebring, which was followed by further testing scheduled for early this week at the Florida circuit. Driver combinations for Level 5's Nos. 055 and 95 HPD ARX-03b cars will be determined prior to the start of official practice on Thursday, with qualifying set to determine the grid on Friday afternoon.
"Heading into a 12-hour race, there is always an increased level of preparation," said Level 5 team manager David Stone. "But for us, it's business as usual. As you go along from race to race and year to year, your core group learns more and more. The goal is for that experience to pay off, and we feel that it has. Our mission hasn't changed and that's to try and have the best cars we can with the best drivers and the best overall package to go for the win."
America's oldest endurance race, the 61st Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring Fueled by Fresh from Florida is set for 10:45 a.m. ET on Saturday, March 16 from Sebring International Raceway.

In the following interview—originally conducted in June 2000 and published in the June 24, 2000, edition of El Comercio—Vargas Llosa discusses the implications of the computerization of literature, the most successful novels of the past century, and the Boom period in Latin American literature.
Since the early 1960s, Peru's Mario Vargas Llosa (b. 1936) has been regarded as one of Latin America's leading writers, a novelist whose books can be read as a modern-day saga of Peruvian and Latin American society.

Kleiner Perkins partner Mary Meeker updated her Internet Trends 2012 report this week.
If you feel like you can't keep up with the current rate of change, brace yourself. Clicking through Meeker's re-imagination slides makes you realize how much the ground has shifted and how much more change is on the way. Scroll down to see her slides.
The report covers:
- Basic stats about Internet and mobile growth
- Re-imagination of everything
- The asset-light generation
- USA, Inc.
The re-imagination section covers everything from door locks to product development to education. She calls out the wallet, education and healthcare as three targets ripe for reformation.
She also illustrates how young people are trading stacks of albums for the cloud and full-time jobs for freelance work (more by necessity than choice for some).
What would healthcare look like if it were revamped to fit the asset-light generation?
From the patient's perspective, everything would have to be mobile, accessible and convenient:
- All healthcare records in the cloud
- Insurance from exchanges, not from employers
- Prices would be transparent
- Control of personal health data via privacy settings similar to those on Facebook
What would this mean for hospitals?
- Smaller campuses and more rental space in malls and big-box stores
- More space dedicated to telemedicine
- More mobile units to take care to individuals
- Fewer specialists as the talent-as-a-service trend comes to healthcare
What else needs to change? Share your suggestions and I'll update the post with new, good ideas from the discussion.

Was performance important to Deleuze? Is Deleuze important to performance; to its practical, as well as theoretical, research? What are the implications of Deleuze's philosophy of difference, process and becoming, for Performance Studies, a field in which many continue to privilege the notion of performance as representation, as anchored by its imitation of an identity: 'the world', 'the play', 'the self'? Deleuze and Performance is a collection of new essays dedicated to Deleuze's writing on theatre and to the productivity of his philosophy for (re)thinking performance. This book provides rigorous analyses of Deleuze's writings on theatre practitioners such as Artaud, Beckett and Carmelo Bene, as well as offering innovative readings of historical and contemporary performance including performance art, dance, new media performance, theatre and opera, which use Deleuze's concepts in exciting new ways. Can philosophy follow Deleuze in overcoming the antitheatrical tradition embedded in its history, perhaps even reconsidering what it means to think in the light of the embodied insights of performance's practitioners? Experts from the fields of Performance Studies and Deleuze Studies come together in this volume and strive to examine these and other issues in a manner that will be challenging, yet accessible to students and established scholars alike.

Religious Affairs Minister Suryadharma Ali says converting Shiite Muslims to the Sunni Islam followed by most Indonesians would be the best way to prevent violent outbreaks between the sects in Sampang, East Java."The best solution for what has been going on in there is dialogue. Many things can happen after a dialogue. We had an experience where the Ahmadis [...] converted to mainstream Islam after dialogue," the minister said on Wednesday on the sidelines of a meeting with lawmakers on House of Representatives' Commission VIII overseeing religious affairs.Suryadharma was referring to the local religious leader in Ciaruteun village in Bogor, West Java, who persuaded 15 members of the minority Muslim Ahmadiyah sect in March 2011 to convert to the form of Islam practiced by most Indonesian Muslims.The minister said that in first stage of the conversion process, minority Shiites, their majority Sunni neighbors and other stakeholders in Sampang could meet for a dialogue. He declined calls made by moderate Muslim groups to make a determination whether Shia is heretical, claiming it was outside his remit as minister."I'm in no position to make the decision. I can't ask the MUI [Indonesian Ulema Council] of Sampang to retract their religious fatwa [edict] deeming Shia as heretical. As I have said earlier, dialogue will be the best way," Suryadharma said.Contacted separately, Deputy Religious Affairs Minister Nasaruddin Umar concurred with Suryadharma that the ministry was obliged to educate subscribers of faiths deemed deviant by "mainstream" religions to convert to the teachings of the six religions recognized by the governments."We never condemned Shiite Islam as heretical or prohibited it from being practiced here because Saudi Arabia, for example, has never banned its followers from going to that country for the haj pilgrimage," Nasaruddin said. "I think there are around 11 different types of Shia Islam, and not all of them are heretical. It is the strands that veer off from mainstream Islam that we have to deal with," the deputy minister said, declining to elaborate if the Sampang Shiites were outside mainstream Islam.Sunni Muslims attacked a Shiite community in Sampang on Aug. 26, forcing almost 300 people to seek refuge in the local forest before they were given refuge in a tennis stadium. The violence followed an attack in December 2011, when a Shiite Muslim, Mochamad Kosim, 50, was hacked to death. Three other Shiites were injured and 37 families lost their homes in the attack.Suryadharma dismissed speculation that the violence in Sampang resulted from a sibling rivalry between Shiite leader Tajul Muluk and his Sunni brother, Roisul Hukuma.The minister said that the mother of the brothers, Umah, was severely injured in the attack and had asked that the government to relocate the Shiites to prevent more attacks."She told me that when I went to visit her a day after the attack. However, it is up to the community whether or not they want to leave the area. We will move them to somewhere safer if they make the decision. Nonetheless, they can stay in the neighborhood if they want to do so," he said.East Java Governor Soekarwo previously dismissed schemes to relocate Shiite residents, although little action has been taken by provincial officials to safeguard them.Critics said that Soekarwo's reluctance to take action to aid the Shiites was done to garner support from Sunni Muslims in the run up to the East Java gubernatorial election.Suryadharma and Nasaruddin declined to comment on potential connections to gubernatorial politics.
Selected controversial remarks, 2012• April 20, Presidential Palace On the joint decree limiting Ahmadiyah"There may have been something wrong in the region. We must promote discussion to settle these kinds of issues. But the Ahmadis must also obey the law."• March 28, House of RepresentativesOn fashion"There must be a set of universal criteria to define something as pornographic, one of which will be when someone wears a skirt above the knee."• Jan. 26, House of RepresentativesOn Shia Islam"The Shiite branch is an aberration of the main Islamic principles."• Jan. 18On the GKJ Yasmin standoff"If a meeting on the issue is canceled, you cannot say that the government lacks good intention to resolve the issue."

Awwwe, first on "best of the week"? THANK YOU NEWGROUNDS! :D
This is pretty fucking awesome :D Thanks to a bunch of people for "helping" with that ;)
This is the first track completed by our group, "Argyros". The "group" is made up of Georgios Tsikriteas and Morgan King.
Morgan also has a newgrounds account, and it can be found here: www.morganking.newgrounds .com (remove the space)
This is basically a new genre we've created, PsyDance, which is a mix of Morgan's Darker psytrance (he's from Canada :P ) and Georgios' harddance (he's from Sweden, yes I know, a Swede who makes Harddance?? What are the chances of that!? :P )
Hope you enjoy, took about a month to make it and we're pretty proud.

The MagazineYes, There Is a Third WayGore and Lieberman continue to lead the Democratic party, ever so cautiously, to the rightAug 21, 2000, Vol. 5, No. 46
• By TOD LINDBERG
From the time he emerged as a serious presidential aspirant in 1991, Bill Clinton consciously set himself to the task of remaking the Democratic party, cracking it loose from the ossifying ideological liberalism of FDR and LBJ in an effort to broaden its political appeal. Clinton was a New Democrat in 1992. And notwithstanding a few major political missteps along the way, most notably a health care initiative that was too big for his own party to chew in Congress, he remains a New Democrat to the end, the first and foremost practitioner of the Third Way politics that has brought left-leaning parties back to power all over the world. From the beginning, the politics of the Third Way has been greeted by skepticism from both left and right -- as one might expect, since Third Way adherents define themselves at least in part in opposition to both left and right. Conservatives have sometimes refused to take it seriously as anything but old-style liberalism flying a false flag. Liberals have wondered whether it was anything more than a slogan providing political cover for an unwelcome lurch to the right. Does the Third Way have content in its own right? Or is it primarily a strategy of political positioning aimed at carving out an electoral majority from the center-left to the center-right? As Clinton's second term comes to an end, it seems ridiculous to deny that the Third Way has real content. Clinton has signed legislation that ended the welfare entitlement, that cut taxes, that devoted budget surpluses to paying down the national debt. Clinton's Democratic party is at peace, not at war, with the market economy -- indeed, the party sees the market as an ally. The wonder is not that Clinton has opposed many Republican efforts to cut taxes, it's that he has gone along with so many. If this is liberalism, it is balanced-budget, bond-market liberalism. At the same time, it is not conservative. Clinton has held out for as much government spending as he can get. He is adamant about maintaining (indeed, increasing) the progressivity of the tax code -- and through the promotion of innovative refundable tax credits, he is quietly trying to transform the IRS into an agency not just for tax collection but for the redistribution of income. Clinton remains a true believer in activist government. The fact that the Third Way has real substance does not mean that it has nothing to do with political positioning. It is meant to be politically adroit and popular. But the Third Way is not merely a matter of political positioning. There are places Clinton will not go. There are lines he could cross with little public resistance but has been unwilling on principle to cross. He can support charter schools and public school choice, but not even a limited experiment in voucher programs for private schools. He wants a prescription drug plan for Medicare, but not enough to embrace the bipartisan Breaux commission's recommendations for market-based reform. He says he wants to use the market to bolster the rate of return of Social Security, but not in the form of diverting Social Security taxes into private accounts. He will cut taxes (say) $ 300 billion over 10 years, but not $ 600 billion. Bill Clinton is a figure of singular political instinct and skill. This in turn raises an interesting question, namely, whether the change he has wrought in the Democratic party is something permanent or merely a product of his transitory position atop it. The fact that British prime minister Tony Blair, German chancellor Gerhard Schroder, and others have found in Clinton's success a political model they could apply in their countries establishes that the Third Way is not merely a Clintonian idiosyncrasy. But will it outlast him? |

What is Ball Valve?
In addition to On /Off service, Ball Valves can be used to modulate flow. A ball valve is a one type of quarter turn valve, is quite literally a ball placed in a passageway through which fluid flows. The ball has a hole through it, by which the valve opens and closes. When the ball is positioned so that the hole runs the same direction as the passageway, the fluid simply flows through the hole, and the valve is open. However, when the ball is positioned so that the hole is perpendicular to the passageway, the fluid cannot pass through, and the valve is closed. The ball is controlled from outside the valve, often with a handle that is turned 90 degrees, or a quarter turn, back and forth to open and close the valve. 90 Degree ball operate by the help of stem which connected with ball and stem connected with handle.
Above brief Ball Valve is a basic two-way valve. This ball valve has a single, straight passageway bored through the ball, making two openings: one on each side, an inlet and an outlet. A ball valve can also be a three-way valve if a third hole is bored partially through the ball, until it meets the main hole, in a shape T or L. A three-way ball valve can shut off one or all of the three passageways it connects. Four Way Ball Valve also used with Double L/X Port for Air/Co2/Nitrogen/Gas Dryer application. Fire Safe Design 2 Way / 3 Way / 4 Way Ball also used in Oil & Gas Sector.
Ball Valve is also called as Tight Shut off, Bi-Directional Valve. As the temperature increases, the pressure capability decreases. PTFE loses strength in higher temperatures. The Ball Valves have PTFE Seats, Seals & Gland Packing and the temperature withstand capacity of GFT is maximum up to 225 Deg. C. Ball Valves are available with Full Port & Regular (Reduce) Port. A full port ball valve offers no flow restriction, which means that when the ball valve is open, the liquid can flow freely through it. This is achieved by making the ball larger than the passage size, so that the hole bored through it can be the same size as the passage. A standard port ball valve does not have an oversized ball, and as a result the hole is one size smaller than the passageway. This presents a small amount of flow restriction as the fluid passes through the ball valve. A reduced port ball valve, on the other hand, has an even smaller ball and an even smaller hole, which creates significant flow restriction as the fluid passes through the valve.
