Product Description
The CarPro HydrO2 Wipe-Less Silica Spray Sealant will protect your paint with as little effort as, spray on, rinse off! HydrO2 is formulated with hydrophilic glass fibers, silicon polymers, and fluoropolymers, which allow this sealant to be applied to all vehicle surfaces (i.e. painted surfaces, glass, plastic, convertible tops, wheels, calipers, wheel wells, trim, headlights, etc.). Make sure your car is clean and free of imperfections before you start. Then wet the entire surface of your vehicle with water. HydrO2's hydroelectric bonding function reacts chemically with water contact, meaning that this coating transforms from hydrophilic to hydrophobic once you spray it onto the wet surface. The pressure from the water stream when rinsing the surface helps accelerate the bonding of HydrO2, creating a hydrophobic layer of protection! That's right, there is no rubbing, buffing, or wiping this product into the paint! Simply dry the surface after you rinse and you are all set! This sealant also offers a great value, dilute it at 1:3 (HydrO2 to Water) and you will have a wipe-less sealant that lasts up to 3 months. Grab a bottle of the CarPro HydrO2 Wipe-Less Silica Spray Sealant today and protect your car with one easy rinse!Directions:
- Do not use in direct sunlight. Thoroughly clean the surface to be protected. Do not use any type of wash and wax product as this will interfere with the bonding of Hydro2.
- Dilute 1:3 (HydrO2 to Water) into a spray bottle.
- Working on a third of the vehicle at a time (while it's still wet), spray a fine mist of Hydro2 directly onto the surface.
- Thoroughly rinse off using a strong jet of water.
- Continue this method until entire vehicle has been treated.
- Dry the vehicle using a clean microfiber towel (i.e. Waffle Weave Drying Towel) or car dryer, like the Metro Vacuums Blaster SideKick Blower.
Professional Detailer Reviews
I go panel by panel, spray a door and then rinse with a strong stream of water. Move to the next panel and repeat until you cover the entire car. Then simply dry the car and that's it, you just sealed your car with Hydr02!
HydrO2 makes it incredibly quick and easy to seal your wheels, no matter how complicated the design. HydrO2 will work its way into all of the cracks and crevices easily. In my personal experiences, I have found HydrO2 to perform well for 1-2 months on wheels. It simply doesn't get any easier than this!

Simply flood or sheet the majority of water from the surface, and then blow the rest off with your Master Blaster.

Customer Reviews
Not my favorite spray on product. Very difficult to not end up with streaks. Must be applied and rinsed immediately. If you miss one inch it will spot or streak. Requires so much water.
Great product for a quick and easy step for protecting the paint. Take the time to properly detail your automobile before applying this step so that you don't waste the product. Its a must have product in my detailing arsenal and with winter approaching its a product that I always keep in stock
Fantastic product. The quickest and easiest way to seal your paint, wheels, glass, plastic, metal, etc. Amazing beading and sheeting!

Rihanna apparently thinks Michelle Rodriguez's reported jealousy is "funny".
The Bajan singer is close friends with model Cara Delevingne, who has been dating actress Michelle since the beginning of the year.
Cara and Rihanna have been spending time together during this season's Fashion Weeks and it was claimed the model's girlfriend is less than happy about their cosiness.
"Rihanna told pals she thinks the whole thing is funny and pretty ridiculous," a source explained to British magazine Star.
"She's just friends with Cara, nothing more."
Cara, 21, has been making plenty of time for Michelle too and the pair recently jetted off to Thailand together.
But the Fast & Furious star, 35, is still thought to be unsure about her girlfriend's commitment.
"Michelle knows Cara is close to Rihanna but she thinks it's disrespectful for the two of them to be hanging out so much, especially as they've only just gone public with their relationship," the insider continued.
Rihanna is currently being linked to rapper Drake, who she enjoyed a fling with after splitting with ex-boyfriend Chris Brown in 2009.
It was recently reported that Michelle is very serious about her relationship with Cara.
'Cara might be younger than her, but she honestly thinks this is 'The One'. Just before she met Cara she was talking about wanting a family within the next couple of years,' a source previously told Mail Online.
'She really wants a baby and wants one soon and now she has found Cara she thinks this could finally be the time to chase that dream.'

Numbers 3
These are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the firstborn, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
These are the names of the sons of Aaron, the priests who were anointed, whom Aaron consecrated and ordained to minister in the priest's office.
But Nadab and Abihu died before the Lord when they offered strange fire before the Lord in the Wilderness of Sinai; and they had no children. So Eleazar and Ithamar ministered in the priest's office in the presence and under the supervision of Aaron their father.
And the Lord said to Moses,
Bring the tribe of Levi near and set them before Aaron the priest, that they may minister to him.
And they shall carry out his instructions and the duties connected with the whole assembly before the Tent of Meeting, doing the service of the tabernacle.
And they shall keep all the instruments and furnishings of the Tent of Meeting and take charge of the Israelites, to serve in the tabernacle.
And you shall give the Levites to Aaron and his sons; they are wholly given to him from among the Israelites.
And you shall appoint Aaron and his sons, and they shall observe and attend to their priest's office; but the excluded who comes near shall be put to death.
And the Lord said to Moses,
Behold, I have taken the Levites from among the Israelites instead of every firstborn who opens the womb among the Israelites; and the Levites shall be Mine,
For all the firstborn are Mine. On the day that I slew all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, I consecrated for Myself all the firstborn in Israel, both man and beast; Mine they shall be. I am the Lord.
And the Lord said to Moses in the Wilderness of Sinai,
Number the sons of Levi by their fathers' houses and by families. Every male from a month old and upward you shall number.
So Moses numbered them as he was commanded by the word of the Lord.
These were the sons of Levi by their names: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
And these are the names of the sons of Gershon by their families: Libni and Shimei.
The sons of Kohath by their families: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel.
The sons of Merari by their families: Mahli and Mushi. These are the families of the Levites by their fathers' houses.
Of Gershon were the families of the Libnites and of the Shimeites. These are the families of the Gershonites.
The males who were numbered of them from a month old and upward totaled 7,500.
The families of the Gershonites were to encamp behind the tabernacle on the west,
The leader of the fathers' houses of the Gershonites being Eliasaph son of Lael.
And the responsibility of the sons of Gershon in the Tent of Meeting was to be the tabernacle, the tent, its covering, and the hangings for the door of the Tent of Meeting,
And the hangings of the court, the curtain for the door of the court which is around the tabernacle and the altar, its cords, and all the service pertaining to them.
Of Kohath were the families of the Amramites, the Izharites, the Hebronites, and the Uzzielites; these are the families of the Kohathites.
The number of all the males from a month old and upward totaled 8,600, attending to the duties of the sanctuary.
The families of the sons of Kohath were to encamp on the south side of the tabernacle,
The chief of the fathers' houses of the families of the Kohathites being Elizaphan son of Uzziel.
Their charge was to be the ark, the table, the lampstand, the altars, and the utensils of the sanctuary with which the priests minister, and the screen, and all the service having to do with these.
Eleazar son of Aaron the priest was to be chief over the leaders of the Levites, and have the oversight of those who had charge of the sanctuary.
Of Merari were the families of the Mahlites and the Mushites; these are the families of Merari.
Their number of all the males from a month old and upward totaled 6,200.
And the head of the fathers' houses of the families of Merari was Zuriel son of Abihail; the Merarites were to encamp on the north side of the tabernacle.
And the appointed charge of the sons of Merari was the boards or frames of the tabernacle, and its bars, pillars, sockets or bases, and all the accessories or instruments of it, and all the work connected with them,
And the pillars of the surrounding court and their sockets or bases, with their pegs and their cords.
But those to encamp before the tabernacle toward the east, before the Tent of Meeting, toward the sunrise, were to be Moses and Aaron and his sons, keeping the full charge of the rites of the sanctuary in whatever was required for the Israelites; and the This ban against ``the excluded" from coming near the sanctuary (the sacred tent, the tabernacle proper) is not to be construed as discrimination against people who were not Israelites. It included everyone except the ordained descendants of Levi of the house of Aaron. The tabernacle proper was made up of two small rooms which no one except the priest or priests who had the assignment was ever to enter. The congregation entered the outside enclosure only. This was true also of the later temples. Neither Jesus nor any of his disciples or Paul ever entered the sanctuary. When Jesus ``taught in the temple" or ``entered into the temple," the Greek word invariably indicates that He was in the temple enclosure (hieron) and not in the sanctuary (naos). (For more information, see Richard Trench, Synonyms of The New Testament). For a violation of this ban see II Chron. 26:16-21, which tells of King Uzziah, who attempted to enter the sanctuary to burn incense and while being forcibly put out by eighty priests became a leper--for the rest of his life.excluded who came near was to be put to death.
All the Levites whom Moses and Aaron numbered at the command of the Lord, by their families, all the males from a month old and upward, were 22,000.
And the Lord said to Moses, Number all the firstborn of the males of the Israelites from a month old and upward, and take the number of their names.
You shall take the Levites for Me instead of all the firstborn among the Israelites. I am the Lord; and you shall take the cattle of the Levites for Me instead of all the firstlings among the cattle of the Israelites.
So Moses numbered, as the Lord commanded him, all the firstborn Israelites.
But all the firstborn males from a month old and upward as numbered were 22,273 .
And the Lord said to Moses,
Take the Levites instead of all the firstborn Israelites, and the Levites' cattle instead of their cattle; and the Levites shall be Mine. I am the Lord.
And for those 273 who are to be redeemed of the firstborn of the Israelites who outnumber the Levites,
You shall take five shekels apiece, reckoning by the sanctuary shekel of twenty gerahs; you shall collect them,
And you shall give the ransom silver from the excess number to be redeemed to Aaron and his sons.
So Moses took the redemption money from those who were left over from the number who were redeemed by the Levites.
From the firstborn of the Israelites he took the money, 1,365 shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary.
And Moses gave the money from those who were ransomed to Aaron and his sons, as the Lord commanded Moses.

Re: SATURDAY PREMIUM SERVICE PLAYS
Washington +16 vs Oregon St.
I'm taking the points with WASHINGTON. The Beavers have been on a solid run and they blew out Washington State last week. While last week's victory has helped to inflate this week's line, that win isn't as impressive as it might sound though. That's because Washington State has been blown out by everyone, losing by a minimum of 25 points in ALL seven of its games. The Huskies figure to provide a much tougher test. Yes, Washington is also winless and has lost all three of its home games. However, two of those games were decided by a touchdown or less, including a 1-point loss vs. a powerful BYU team. The Huskies' only home game that wasn't close was vs. Oklahoma and there's no real shame in that. This week, the Huskies come in off a bye. That bye came at a perfect time. Not only were the Huskies struggling but it has allowed time to heal some nagging injuries. Note that they're expected to have leading wide receiver D'Andre Goodwin back and also may see the return of running back David Freeman. The time off also gave QB Ronnie Fouch the opportunity to work a lot against the No. 1 defense in practice. Fouch now has a start under his belt and I expect him to be at his best. Note that Fouch, who is in for the injured Jake Locker, has a passing efficiency rating of 116.5. He has completed 37 of 75 passes for 506 yards with three touchdowns and one interception and that lone INT came on a tipped pass. The players are certainly saying all the right things. Running back Brandon Johnson had this to say: "I think this bye week we hopefully found the answer that guys need to go out and have fun and stop worrying about everything else, stop worrying about who we are playing and our record and just go out there and play." Johnson continued by saying: "There's been a lot of negativity going on around the internet and the newspapers and stuff like that, but our guys are like 'forget about all the negative things. We've just got to stay positive so we can win these next seven games. We just have to believe it and do it. We can't talk about it. We just have to do it. Just go out and play hard every single play and leave it all on the field." While winning their next seven games isn't going to happen, I do expect the Huskies to do as Johnson says and "leave it all on the field."
While the Beavers have had the advantage in this series lately, the recent games have all been close. Oregon State won last year's meeting at Corvalis by just five points and that marked the third straight series meeting which was decided by 10 points or less. Last year's game was particularly emotional as Washington QB Locker was knocked out of the game and sent to the hospital with a neck injury and several other players were ejected. Even though Locker won't play that should provide the Huskies with some added emotion this week. UW coach Tyrone Willingham noted: "...we will try to get our guys to focus on the game and hopefully play it with great emotion, but never cross that line."
While the Beavers are 3-0 at home, they're also 0-3 (1-2 ATS) on the road. Looking back at their last 10 road games and we find them at 4-6 SU with only one of those victories (at Washington State) coming by greater than a touchdown. With the over/under line currently sitting at 60 or 60.5, it's worth noting that the Beavers are just 2-8 SU/ATS the last 10 times that they played a road game with an over/under line ranging from 56.5 to 63. During the same stretch, the Huskies were 10-6 SU/ATS when playing a home game with a total in the same range. Often, the best value can be found by taking teams that the betting public is really down on (Washington) when they're matched up against teams that the betting public has fallen in love with. While I won with the Beavers in their victory over USC, I feel that their lines have now become inflated and that with the line continuing to climb higher and higher, we're getting excellent value with what should be an extremely motivated home underdog. *Pac 10 GOY
Re: SATURDAY PREMIUM SERVICE PLAYS
Stanford -2vs UCLA 2* WAGER
Well, when I gave this out on the Podcast...Stanford was actually getting +1.5, and had opened at +2.5...
Since I have already been informed that the "Outfits" are most likely not finished getting down on Stanford, I wanted to get this out to my Subscribers before it gets to -3...because even though I believe that still isn't enough for UCLA to cover...the Bottom Line is,we always need to work at getting the best of the number...
We will also most likely be using Stanford in a Teaser Bet as well, because I had intentions of making this a 3* if it would have stayed at UCLA -1.5 or even at a PK...But with the Teaser bet, we can still attempt to extract even more Profit out of this solid play...VR
Duke 3.5 (-120) vs Miami 1* WAGER (Buy the 1/2 to +3.5)
Oklahoma -19vs Kansas 4* BIG 12 GAME of the MONTH
Baylor 17.5 vs Oklahoma St. 1* WAGER
California -2 vs Arizona 3* BEST BET of the DAY
South Carolina +3 (-120) vs LSU 2* WAGER (Buy the 1/2 to +3)
Navy / Pittsburgh Over 51 1* TOTAL *
Penn St. / Michigan Under 48 1* TOTAL
Re: SATURDAY PREMIUM SERVICE PLAYS
I'm playing on the Red Sox and Rays to finish UNDER the total. As you know, Game 5 was a thriller which produced 15 runs. I'm expecting a much lower final score on Saturday though. Shields was great in his lone LCS appearance (Game 1) allowing two runs in 7 1/3 innings. He didn't receive any run support though and the game finished with a score of 2-0. Including that result, he's 10-3 with a stellar 2.66 ERA and 1.042 WHIP here at home on the season. That includes an outstanding 1.17 ERA in his two regular-season starts against the Red Sox here in St. Petersburg. Those games averaged just six runs, finishing with scores of 3-0 and 5-4. Overall, Shields has allowed three earned runs or less in 18 of his last 20 starts here. It's true that Beckett has struggled in the playoffs thus far. Keep in mind that the same could have been said of Kazmir before yesterday and all he did was limit the Red Sox to two hits through six shutout innings. Beckett, who insists that he's "fine," had previously been regarded as one of the best playoff performers around. In fact, prior to this season he was 6-2 with a 1.70 ERA in nine career playoff starts. With so much on the line, I expect him to bounce back with a big game. Note that even with his recent struggles, Beckett has still seen the UNDER go 4-1-1 his last six starts and that he allowed one earned run or less in three of those. For the season, he had a 3.42 ERA in 16 road starts, while seeing the UNDER go 9-6-1. Prior to his Game 2 start here, Beckett had allowed one earned run in three straight starts vs. the Rays, all three of those games stayed below the number. Sixteen of Shields' last 17 home starts had over/under lines ranging from 7 to 8.5. We're getting nine here and I believe that's generous. *Best Bet
Re: SATURDAY PREMIUM SERVICE PLAYS
3 Unit Play. Take Over in Boston / Tampa Bay
Game five featured a couple of aces and that game went way over the posted total and we expect a similar occurrence in game six. The Boston bats have finally come alive and Josh Beckett has been an over pitcher all season long. His game two start produced 17 combine runs and although we do not expect that many runs, we do expect a high scoring game that Boston will hopefully win and produce an epic game seven. Play the over and watch your money grow.

It's a well-known fact that you can't have the midstream energy sector -- our gatherers, pipelines, and processors -- without the upstream sector, or our exploration and production companies. As America's energy production has shifted away from traditional areas, midstream companies are scrambling to lay down infrastructure to bring these new energy sources to market.
In this video, Fool.com contributor Aimee Duffy talks to Tyler Crowe about which midstream master limited partnerships are active in some well-known plays like the Permian Basin, and in some lesser known plays like the Niobrara Shale and the Mississippi Lime. Aimee explains how MLPs like Plains All American (NYSE: PAA ) , Magellan Midstream Partners (NYSE: MMP ) , Access Midstream Partners (NYSE: ACMP ) , Summit Midstream Partners (NYSE: SMLP ) , and Tallgrass Energy Partners (NYSE: TEP ) all play a role in our new American energy narrative.
1 Big Energy Stock Idea
American energy is turning the whole world on its head. Imagine a company that rents a very specific and valuable piece of machinery for $41,000... per hour (that's almost as much as the average American makes in a year!). And Warren Buffett is so confident in this company's can't-live-without-it business model, he just loaded up on 8.8 million shares. An exclusive, brand-new Motley Fool report reveals the company we're calling OPEC's Worst Nightmare. Just click HERE to uncover the name of this industry-leading stock... and join Buffett in his quest for a veritable LANDSLIDE of profits!

Philadelphia Fire Claims Two
A 12-year-old girl and her great aunt were killed in a South Philadelphia row home fire on Tuesday night in a home that had no working smoke detectors, fire authorities said. View Images The flames broke out at about 10:30 p.m. in a corner house located on the 400 block of Hoffman Street. Neighbors said firefighters battled the blaze and thick smoke but could not get to the screaming girl on time.
On Tuesday night, Chopper 10 was above the scene and showed firefighters temporarily evacuating the building after the blaze quickly flared up.
NBC 10's Tim Furlong reported from the scene that the entire block was also evacuated, and neighbors were complaining of heavy smoke in the area.
Firefighters reported the bulk of the fire was watered down by 11:30 p.m.
Fire officials said two male victims inside the home suffered what appeared to be minor injuries. The family also had several dogs, but only one of them had been located.

TRENTON — A New York City woman fighting for her right to leave her shirt at home and go topless in public must cover up while in New Jersey, a state appeals panel ruled today.
Phoenix Feeley, 31, was twice arrested and charged by Spring Lake police in 2008 after she refused to put on a shirt while sunbathing at a beach, and then again took off a shirt given to her by police after being released.
She appealed the charges, arguing that if men are allowed to be in public without a shirt, women should be allowed to be in public without a shirt as well. But the court disagreed.
In their ruling, the judges argued there was no constitutional right for women to appear topless at a public beach, and that covering the female breast is important to safeguard "the public's moral sensibilities."
Feeley is no stranger to top-free controversy. In 2005, she was arrested in New York City for walking down a street without a shirt. She sued the city, pointing to a New York Supreme Court ruling saying woman can go topless in public. The city later paid her $29,000 to settle the suit.

Evolution Ship of Fools The Book of the War |
Faction Paradox Of the City of the Saved... |
Author | Philip Purser-Hallard | |
Published | 2004 | |
Publisher | Mad Norwegian Press |
Synopsis: The City of the Saved is the place where every human being who ever lived has been recreated at the end of time. And everyone's immortal. So when a murder occurs, the whole of society is threatened. And it's up to Laura Tobin, the first Compassion, to solve it. |
A Review by Finn Clark 22/10/04
The Book of the War didn't make me like the City of the Saved. I disliked its neo-theology and I disliked it as a story setting, being even more of a fantasy SF utopia than the sodding People. After reading this follow-up novel I'm still not completely sold on the place, but I'll grudgingly admit that Philip Purser-Hallard has done impressive things with it in this particular instance.
The novel's length helps, of course. Like Telos, Mad Norwegian Press have distinguished themselves from BBC Books not only by commissioning good books, but also by making them a distinctive length. Telos went for novellas. Mad Norwegian Press publish paper-bound bricks. It took me forever to get through this thing. Fortunately all of their releases so far have done well with their bookshelf-buckling length, but if a future novel turns out horribly then readers everywhere will know true pain. Of course this hasn't happened yet! Philip Purser-Hallard handles himself well (and I'll also be interested to see if people start reappraising the allegedly over-long Interference now we've got a line of similar-length novels).
In this case, the book's length lets the author include a world of detail. The City of the Saved is a rich work of imagination, easily outclassing the People in its evocation of mankind's history, multiple universes and a city the size of a galaxy. Many of my problems with the City as a story setting were circumvented, so for instance the theological side of things becomes merely metaphorical and the utopian side is coloured by the fact that this community has been assembled on purely racial lines. Even child-molesting deviants will get resurrected in the City if they have the right ancestors. The resulting community is infinitely colourful and far more interesting than Banks-a-like smug anarcho-liberals.
Though having said that, I still don't like the City's presence at the edge of the Whoniverse (though these novels' relationship with Doctor Who isn't a straightforward issue). How many Doctor Who stories would be undercut if we knew that their human characters would be resurrected in indestructible bodies to talk out their problems to their hearts' content? Personally I'll be quietly pretending that the City doesn't exist and/or has no relationship with anything else I read, which isn't exactly a comfortable position.
Faction Paradox are cool, streets ahead of the versions in any other book. Theoretically there's nothing here that wasn't in The Book of the War, but there's a difference between being told something and seeing it. The Compassions also impressed me. For the first time since Interference we actually meet the woman Lawrence Miles created, as opposed to the entirely dissimilar character who travelled with the 8th Doctor in subsequent 8DAs and said "obviously" a lot. Making Compassion the book's heroine is a nice touch, actually; it gives a happy feeling of familiarity. It's also confirmed that the original Laura Tobin was indeed Alison's sister from Ship of Fools (p73).
There are odd little references, e.g. the word "corniche" (see my review of Down) or what looks like a nod to John Peel's Evolution on p9. I quite liked those, actually.
The story is a big one, with plenty of revelations and significant events. Inevitably we discover that (gasp) someone's worked out how to kill indestructible people, which is handled well even though a particularly obtuse tree stump would have known in advance that the book would make a loophole in the City's invulnerability protocols. I'm trying to imagine a Who-like story about characters who can't even be scratched and it's making my head hurt. I have no problems with the plot, the characters or anything else about the story in general. That's all good stuff.
As an aside, writing about a story this enormous carries the risk of drowning your characters in the sheer scale of things. I suppose there's a bit of this (no single character ever sees more than a piece of the puzzle), but by and large this feels like a tale of people rather than SF concepts. That must have been a harder trick to pull off than the author makes it look. However having said that, Laura Tobin isn't the world's greatest detective. She wanders around aimlessly meeting people and occasionally being shot at, then out of nowhere suddenly delivers an Agatha Christie speech and tells us who committed the murder and why. Huh? Where'd she get that from, eh?
There's stylistic experimentation, which is fun. It helped break things up a bit (as did the footnotes), which matters more than you'd think in a book this size.
The ending feels a little odd, but it worked for me. On first glance it feels abbreviated and almost sequel-hunting, but I think the point is that the status quo has changed rather than the precise details of who's taking power and who's fighting whom.
Footnote: after this and Sometime Never..., could authors stop ending their titles with three dots? It looks awkward in the middle of a sentence when you're reviewing it. (In fact, I've avoided mentioning the title throughout this entire review.)
Overall, this is an enjoyable, well-written book that could easily have been a catastrophe. It could have been smug utopian bollocks. It could have been a Huge SF Story (TM) in which the human characters were insignificant ants. It could have been a theological minefield that just pissed everyone off. It could have been a guided tour of the author's lovingly created world at the expense of its story. I don't know if Philip Purser-Hallard realises just how many risks he took in choosing this tale to tell... but he pulled it off. Be impressed.
I Will Never Feel Clean Again by Jamas Enright 3/4/06
Oh ye gods. I have read some terrible books in my time, but this one was one of the more painful I've had to struggle through. I tend to only have time for reading books when traveling to and from work, but I normally enjoy those few moments. Whenever I opened this book up, I would give a mental sigh and brace myself for whatever was going to be inflicted on me next. It wasn't until I took a trip to Sydney that I actually had a chunk of time I could devote to plowing through this, and it wasn't until about the last fifty pages that I started to begin to like it.
I suspect the main problem is the characters. We are presented with a fair few of them and none of them, to me, were likable, or even interesting. It's very hard to read a book when you just don't care about the people involved. But another basic problem with this book is the setting...
The City of the Saved is almost the ultimate expression of human hubris. At the end of time (between this universe and the next... don't ask), the City of the Saved was set up and contains every human that ever was or will be (determined by genetic standards). Think about this. Every proto-human caveman through to every post-human genetic derivation. That's more than a lot of people. And they are in one City (which is admittedly very big. People live in districts and for an idea of the size of the City, think of one district as a city block compared to the size of, say, the planet. Only with the City being bigger). Oh, and they are all immortal, and have now been living for about 300 years. Philip Purser-Hallard takes this premise and goes from there, setting up the political and social structure. There are a number of issues I'd like to take up with Philip about this (are abortions or miscarriages Ressurected?), not the least of which is that the City has one government and a mayor. Erm, no...
But the story is about a murder. Just above I mentioned that the City people are immortal, so it's hardly surprising that a murder would have for an unusual event, but events spring from there to change the nature of the City forever. (At least, I think so. The ending isn't entirely clear as to just what the final state of play is. Hopefully the next City-based book will pick this up and clarify matters.) And, while the murder is being solved, various details about the City itself, such as how it came to be, are revealed. Which is a shame, because the explanations are annoying. Why have that as the answer? We didn't really need to know, and the answers just make me want to slap the author more.
So, clearly not my favourite book, and I can't help wondering why the hell it's in the Faction Paradox universe anyway. It's not about the War, and barely about the Faction Paradox, even an conceptual influences as in This Town Will Never Let Us Go, so this book seems more an exercise in enabling the author to write about some cross-human concept he had, and ultimately comes across as an excuse for self-gratification.
A Review by Neil Clarke 24/5/08
It might be uncharitable to note this, but the fact that I read crashingly mundane "filler" NA White Darkness prior to Of the City of the Saved... could be seen as doing Purser-Hallard an enormous favour. But, to be honest, he doesn't need it. Of the City of the Saved... is a fantastic novel. And I use that word strategically: the density of information and imagination it contains is comparable to Michael Chabon's The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay, or Susanna Clarke's Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell. In other words, the book is considerably more of a literary achievement than the majority of Doctor Who related books. It fact, it seems rather tragic that, arguably being part of a niche within a niche, so few people relatively speaking will come to read it.
In its sheer invention, the book threatens to out-Miles Lawrence, as well as having much in common with the wittier style of Miles' earlier books like Christmas on a Rational Planet and Alien Bodies - a sense of humour defuses the potential here for the novel to become mired in its own creativity, and enhances rather than defuses enjoyment of the book. The City itself is such an endlessly fascinating concept, with a level of information constantly maintained that I at least found fascinating and highly enjoyable (although I realise this could have easily become self-indulgent; something it was saved from by a prose style that is both intelligent and humourous) - that I found the experience of reading the book enormously compulsive, finishing it in little over two days. Compare and contrast with the equivalent enjoyment derived from Interference.
If there are ever further series of more adult-oriented Doctor Who books, I'd love to see Purser-Hallard's name on one of the spines. The couple of explicitly Doctor Who-related references that I noticed (to the series, as opposed to the EDAs) - the half-Androgum cook, and the appearance of a Mechanoid in the attack at the end - suggest something of an abiding love for the series, and any new series of books with a bit more complexity than the current BBC offerings could do far worse than commission PP-H.
Speaking of complexity, one of the most satisfying aspects of the novel was its great numbers of twists - several of which served as red herrings - the majority of which, satisfyingly, I had in no way predicted, the bombardment of general information being somewhat helpful to the whodunnit set-up.
As noted in a couple of other reviews, the sheer amount of information, though undoubtedly one of the novel's strongest points, and part of its uniqueness, is something of a double-edged sword in that it does have a slightly negative impact on the novel's characters. Which is not to say that they aren't likeable, etc, but does perhaps hold the novel back from absolute greatness. Nevertheless, it's definitely up there with the best of Doctor Who fiction, and I recommend it wholeheartedly, although any fans of White Darkness out there might want to locate something with a little less originality.
P.S. Can't wait for the new Faction Paradox book! Daniel O'Mahony + Faction Paradox: fab!)

'67 Modified Fastback |
65-73 and 79-06 |
Used Mustang Parts Locator |
NOS and Used Mustang Parts Auctions |
1967 Modified Fastback |
Nunn of Sharpsburg, Georgia, likes his Mustangs fast and a little different.
He also has a supreme weakness for '67 Shelbys. "Probably on of the most
memorable events that forged my future passions occurred around 1969."
said Mike. "While hanging with the guys in the "smoke hole" during a lunch
break in high school, one of our friends pulled up with a '67 GT350. His
dad worked at a local ford dealership and let him borrow the car with the
promise that he would return it within an hour. It was Wimbledon White
with Guardsman Blue stripes. I remember walking around that car, admiring
the features, listening to the engine, and thinking. Now this is a serious
vehicle. I was in lust.
Fast-forward 25 years and the lust wasn't abated. However, in the intervening years a family and work slipped between his desires and the reality of life. Of course, horse fever set in (it always does), and it all started with an innocent little '95 GT. From there, the downward spiral careened out of control. Soon a '68 GT convertible packing the 302 4V was in the garage. But it wasn't enough. The shelby from all those years ago was still bumping around in Mike's cranium. Though smitten with snakebite, he was still savvy enough to realize a Shelby wasn't practical for what he wanted to do. "I wanted something with the '67 Shelby look that I wouldn't be afraid to drive on weekends either on the road or on the track. I wanted something that incorporated the more modern handling and performance equipment in the '95 I was driving. That's where a clapped-out '67 came into the picture. Since Mike desired modifications and the vast majority of Shelby owners seem to frown on that, this fastback was just the ticket. It was perfect for the project too. It needed so much that most folks would have slowly backed away from the 289 2V-powered bomb. But not Mike. He plunged in with both feet. Metro Muscle Cars of College Park, Georgia, was tagged for the lion's share of the restoration and modification, but Mike performed the entire teardown and bagging and tagging. Then he sent the car to the media blaster for paint removal. Everything he got back needed, well, darn near everything. After the body was completely adjusted and aligned, Tim Guill at Metro went to work detailing the undercarriage with the correct red iron oxide and sound deadener. The final paint and body was handled by Auto Select in Fayetteville, Georgia. Mike selected a Ford color for what was becoming a "GT351" --a '96 Taurus Royal Blue Pearl Metallic with a hint of extra mica. From there, Mike followed our engine build from the Sept. '97 issue and managed to obtain some pretty impressive numbers from the carbureted 351 Windsor. Behind the Windsor is a Tremec 3550 that feeds power to an N-case, 9-inch rear housing that sports 3.73 Traction-Lok gears. From there, Global West suspension, subframe connectors, and other small tweaks allow the car to handle as close to a '95 GT as possible, inside, the car has all the stock Deluxe interior with the addition of a set of Mach 1 buckets. Mike even saw fit to add the correct Shelby rollbar, but demurred from putting in the correct steering wheel in favor of a Le Carrera. After riding in the GT351, we concluded that the car rocks!. So has the fever abated? Is Mike cured? No, in fact, it's worse. Since completion of the GT351, Mike has seen fit to add some other steeds to the collection. As we said, though, Nic Cage said it, but we think Mike's living it, 'cause he's a baad man with a heart of Mustang gold. |

Afraid of detox
Afraid of detox
Hi everyone,
I've been researching raw for months and months now and seriously want to go for it but I'm scared of the detox! Not all aspects of it, but I'm worried about blisters and coldsores. I used to get coldsores in my early teens (I'm 26 now) and I'm worried about been covered in them for the next year if I go raw.
I know I'm probably being irrational but my confidence isn't all that great already.
I understand that detox, however it presents itself, is a necessary part of getting well and becoming healthy but this is really concerning me. Can anyone offer me any advice on this?
I personally find that whole raw foods cause a slow and steady detox, whereas juice fasting causes a much quicker and more noticeable detox. On whole raw foods, you have nothing to worry about. Allow your body to heal and detoxify through clean living. It is the toxins in our bodies which keep us in a perpetual state of illness.
i think its important to take at least a 4 day weekend off work, a week if you can. i think the first 2 weeks are the worst as far as detox, but also your energy levels will fluctuate, and its good to just take time to rest when you need to. enemas help the process along, especially if you get headaches.
i think it also depends on how toxic you are.
my experience was pretty mild, but i haven't eaten meat since the 80's. i've had no issues with my skin at all. you might buy a skin brush and use that twice a day, and take a couple hot baths every day, this will help to clear out toxins. saunas are great. drink lots of lemon juice. i hope you decide to go for it, its so worth it. stay positive!
also, if you considering a juice fast, do raw food for at least 2 weeks before, this should make the transition easier.
I never had any detox issues. I was vegan before, so maybe that helped. Detox things may or may not happen for you. Going slowly can help. You don't have to go 100% raw overnight.
My husband Chris didn't have any detox symptoms at all. He took his time transitioning from sad to veggie to vegan and then raw over 3 years.
I had some sores which I am not even sure were due to detoxing, I might have been picked up when travelling, apart from that I didn't get any skin problems.
There are no definates with detoxing, it's different with everyone.
Even if you do get blisters they won't last long and then your skin will be better than you can ever imagine.
One thing you don't understand yet because you haven't experienced it is that when you go raw you will feel amazing. Your mental and emotional state will be better than ever before. This will way eclipse any detox you go through. In my expeience detox is nothing compared to the high of being raw.
P.S.Cucumber juice is really good for skin.
I actually have some mouth sores right now from what I think is detox, and I'm doing about 70-80% raw. Yeah, it's a little painful, but it's temporary, and considering the other benefits I experience, ie. clear mind, calmer mood, no aches and pains, weight loss, I feel it's worth it. I was vegan before and vegetarian before that, and I haven't had drugs or alcohol for 20 yrs, so I think that's been helpful in my detox being more minor. and if I jumped in at 100% raw, of course, it would likely be more dramatic. I'm breaking out a little, too sigh, but it's ok. I know this will also pass. Don't be scared :) One day at a time, you'll survuve whatever discomforts you might (or might not) experience. Go for it!
Transitioning slowly (meaning not going 100% raw overnight) and adding in more raw foods and cutting out cooked foods over time helped me tremendously. You will still detox, but it won't be as uncomfortable! Also, heavier foods such as avocados and nuts will slow the detox moreso than lighter foods like fresh fruits.
A couple of my 'transition foods' were steamed veggies, baked root vegetables and winter squash, and sprouted grain bread. A bowl of steamed carrots or a baked yam won't kill you. ;) ...Although I think there are probably some strict raw foodists who would disagree with me about that.
Hello!! I find that the use of high levels of chlorophyll (dark greens, blue green algaes including e3live and liquid chlorophyll tinctures) they help to minimize the toxins before they are excreted. Also helping with inflammation and stablization of blood sugars.
My skin was a big issue when I first went raw I noticed it was getting a bit inflamed so I added more chlorophyll to my diet and noticed drastic results.
Hope it is helpful in your detox.
Thank you to everyone for your replies. All very helpful and encouraging :)
I think I'll have to go into this slowly at first… I'm curious though, when some of you say you aren't 100% raw, do you eat raw and cooked separately or do you mix and match?
I've just experimented with a green smoothie! I have to say, first thought… bleurgh! Plus I'm not sure my blender has puree'd it all that well. However I will persevere :D
Congrats on breaking the ice with the green smoothie! WHOOHOO!!
Incidentally, I use ONLY baby spinach in my smoothies, as far as leafy greens go, because I didn't like the taste of kale. I'm totally cool with that. I eat collards, kale, other lettuces in salads and wraps, etc. But the spinach with another fruit or two and maybe a cucumber is very light and good! What greens did you use?
As far as not being 100% raw yet, some non-raw things I still eat are non-raw hummus, sprouted grain bread like Ezekiel, Wasa or Ryvita crackers, and store-bought hemp/rice/almond milk. That's basically it, I think. I'm getting around to sprouting some chickpeas for the first time and making some raw hummus, now that I've learned how easy it is. After that, my goal is to get in the swing of making my own nut milks. I'm sure it tastes much fresher and more delicious, and it'll be nice to control the sweetness. But I'm loving the process of doing it like this. It works for me, it's gentle, and I'm feeling pretty darn good. I am intrigued by reading about dramatic detoxes-it's always interesting-but I don't really want to experience going raw like that. I'm having FUN with it, getting comfortable, reading stuff, salivating over recipes, deliberating about what kind of dehydrator to get, etc.
Good luck and sorry for the long post!
Hi LovesPeter… no need to apologise for the long post, lots of great info in there! :D
I used spinach, watercress, a small orange and a small apple in my smoothie with some water. Just thought I'd give it a shot! It was bearable but I need to experiment of course. Interesting about the baby spinach… I'll consider that definitely.
Funny you should mention Ryvita too as that's probably one of the things I'll keep eating for now. Bought some more today in fact! My diet isn't at its best these days which makes me think my transition would be a struggle if I jumped straight into raw, as much as I'd like to. I tend to get impatient and think it's all or nothing, but I know if I'm going to do this properly then it's worth my time to research and experiment and take it slowly if needs be.
Aaargh! Scared but excited! :)
Intense detox symptoms:
Hi everyone, wanted a bit of advice by someone who has been raw for a while. I am in my 8th month raw, I have had a few episodes where I have eaten cooked vegan. Either on the road or travelling or in social situations.
This past week I was feeling low and missing some of my favorite old vegan dishes. In particular Dhal, which is spicy curried lentil pulse or cream. I made some Tuesday and ate it with some sprouted quinoa. I have done this type of thing occasionally this summer while at the beach house or just on the road. Well this time I got really sick. I am wondering if cooked food can trigger a massive detox reaction?
Since Tuesday I am not digesting anything, its just going straight through me whooosh! My hubby had some and is fine so I know it wasn't bad. I have had diarrhea for the last 2.5 days. I am wondering why. Today finally I figured out that fasting might help so no food just water since 6:00 pm yesterday. Was up all night in the loo, and so far (I am in Europe so its 2:30 pm here) I have been to the bathroom 6 times today. Massive quantities of loose mucous filled n. 2, and the urge to go is strong and violent. I did not go to work because of this today, didn't trust myself.
Won't go to the doc, all he would do is prescribe meds for the symptoms and I am past that.
Just wondering why would an old truly favorite vegan dish cause so much waste.
Any words of wisdom anyone? Please help if you can and thx.
the only thing that comforts me at the moment is thinking "Don't be scared D, this is just another detox" this is what is reassuring me at the moment. Ciao :) Dea
Hi, deasmiles!
Do not worry! I had a similar reaction after eating vegan cooked food. Just like you, my hubby ate it too and he was fine. (I am 95% raw, he is 50% raw). I was hoping to slow the detox instead I ended up with diarrhea for 4 days. I drank only water for those four days and I felt great afterwards. On the fifth day I started with a cup of freshly squeezed apple juice. I went to the doctors because I was dehydrated and had fever. He did not prescribe any drugs but told me to sip a tablespoon of water every ten minutes to keep myself hydrated. It worked like a charm.I hope that you will feel better soon. Good luck and keep me posted!
Planet organic,
thanks so much, you really gave me peace of mind w/yr advice. I am drinking water still and the tummy is beginning to calm down. I think I may switch to green juice tomorrow and take it slow. Man! that was wild, did not see it coming. Detox attack! :) thanks again xo Dea
eshne: I don't know about the cold sores, but your smoothie sounds tasty. You can cover up the taste of greens with a thin slice of ginger. Some shakes taste better cold, so you could try throwing in a frozen banana at the end. And don't be afraid to blend for a long time, for a whole minute or two if that's necessary.
A lot of the detox symptoms I experienced were actually caused by nutritional imbalances and blood sugar issues (too many raw cookies and too many fruit only shakes). Looking back, I wish that I had taken some time to experiment and find out which foods actually make me feel good, like green shakes.
eshne, I think this is a good reason to transition gradually to raw. Your body may not be ready for an overdose of nutritional food. I think it would be easier for you if you didn't try to do it all at once. See how it goes when introducing more raw and if everything goes well, increase the raw veggies and fruits a little at a time until you get where you want to be. Eat more simply most of the time than the complicated recipes found on this site.
deasmiles – The same thing happened to me the first time I ate a big cooked vegan meal after being raw for a while…. it just confirmed why I want to stay raw!
Eshne – I have heard that if you use 60% fruit and 40% greens in smoothies, that the sweet fruit taste is predominant, and you won't taste the greens. Most smoothies I make are this way, and I usually use a combo of fresh and frozen fruit and some juice (or juicy fruits like oranges) with a large handful or 2 of mixed greens. At Trader Joe's they sell a ready-to-eat bag of mixed southern greens with collard greens, mustard greens, turnip greens, and spinach. So good in smoothies and so easy.
Also, when I first detoxed I mostly had stomach issues and flu-like symptoms, but no skin problems. Everyone is different though.
For my green smoothies I put in 1 banana, some orange juice, and then stuff the blender about half full of various different greens + some mint or another herb. The banana makes it nice and creamy, and makes it seem more like a smoothie.
Green smoothies will really help you transition because they'll take away detox symptoms (made my acne go away), and they're a great way to get more greens without eating more fat (such as in dressings). You'd probably want to start out with more fruit than I mentioned, but you might want to move up to that after. Just try it out and see what you like. You'll find that your taste for greens will change as you progress.
I am still transitioning into the RAW life. So far my only detox symptoms have been a few headaches during the first week. One day I went out to eat with my parents and the only raw thing I could find on the menu was an iceberg lettuce salad.Instead I had a SAD meal, thinking one wouldn't hurt. I immediately lost all of my energy. I had to go home and take a nap. The only thing that kept me awake during the drive home was how angry I was at myself for putting all that mess back in my system.SO now I'm back to RAW with gusto.
Green smoothies are my favorites and I am getting pretty good at them. Spinach is the absolute best green taste-wise, but I have been able to make even strong greens like arugula taste good. The trick is not to add too many greens – you only need enough to turn the concoction green – a 40% greens, 60% fruit is recommended. I make them different each time – different greens and different fruits. I add a fruit juice (apple is best), water, ice and FROZEN fruit – either berries or apples or pears (the absolute best). If using a strong tasting green, I may have to add a bit more fruit or frozen bananas. Sometimes I have cheated and add a little agave. After reading about agave in the last day or two, I think I'm going to switch over to date syrup, which looks very easy to make. When I think I'm done with the smoothie, I always have a little taste before I pour everything into a glass. Oh – spices are good to add, too – things like grated ginger, a tad of parsley (strong tasting – don't use the stems) and mints.
Note about the bananas – slice them and put on a cookie sheet (in one layer) in the freezer. After an hour or so take them out and transfer them to a freezer container. Store in the freezer to use with your smoothies. Frozen ones give you a better smoothie experience.
I still need to learn more about adding spices. I am hoping to get Victoria Boutenko's book, GREEN FOR LIFE, which I understand has a lot about smoothies. Dr. Oz interviewed the lady who wrote CRAZY SEXY CANCER (her name is Kris Carr) on Oprah recently. She does a lot with smoothies and serves them in a wine glass. Dr Oz and Dr. Roizen make them as well. Google any of them and you will find a ton of green smoothie recipes.
Thank you for all the input and advice people have given :)
I've found the correct way to make green smoothies now and I love them. (Favourite at the moment is spinach, banana, white grapes and mint. Lovely!)
I'm taking raw slowly and trying to get the green smoothies in every day. I noticed when I stopped having them for a week that I felt a bit run down and my skin broke out! So I'm back to them and trying to influence other people to try them… to which the general reaction is: "EURGH"! I'll make them greenies yet! ;)

Prevention of Liver Damage During Liver Surgery (LTR)

- How to Read a Study Record
Liver damage as a consequnce of ischemia (I) and reperfusion (R) is known to harm the liver and could hence be a critical factor of the postoperative outcome of patients undergoing liver surgery. In order to protect the liver from ischemic damage following interventions such as the Pringle Maneuver, preconditioning has been successfully applied in various animal models as well as in humans. Since ischemia inevitably leads to cell hypoxia and subsequnet release of endogenuous metabolites, the investigators hypothesize that instead of brief periods of ischemia, the exogenuous infusion of purine analogues may also protect against subsequent prolonged periods of ischemia. Moreover, after reperfusion, the antiinflamamtory action of purine ananlogue infusion can further attenuated liver damage.

I'm in for two sets. I had planned to tie my sculpin pattern for one of them, but I see the swapmeister is already doing a sculpin. Anybody mind two sculpins? Not sure what else I will tie yet...
if you guys only want to tie one pattern then thats fine...for those of you who want to tie 2 then go for it...i'ma tie two patterns... tie up your sculpin chattmr. can never have enough of those!
Anything you can think of will work over here!...big-small...dull-bright...it's all good!...lookin forward to see what you come up with!:beer2:
I did a bunch of other web searching while going through the WFF withdrawl shakes. I think that i'm gonna stick with a Matuka pattern for one fly and rather than tie the white bugger I've found a few otehrs that are big, meaty and claim to fish well. I have saved a bunch of them to my favorites and will compare the materials list to what I have on hand. I can meet the two week deadline for a pair of patterns, I need the practice tying anyway.
March 16? How about March 31? Just suggesting... mostly because I have to hurry up and wait for some quality tubes and some jungle cock (that sounds sooooo dirty, I'm gonna call it jungle fowl).
march 31 sounds good, that'll give us all a little extra time to come up with the dirtiest patterns! remember too that you guys can tie 1 OR 2 it all depends on what you want to do!
Thats cool. I would prefer to share two patterns, I would also like to use copper tubes versus the cheap plastic ones. I need to tie some high quality flies to make up for all the SHIT I tied up when I first started tying. Hopefully I get that new jungle FOWL cape soon.
The end of the month would be great for me as well. I just got back to reading everything and panicked when I saw two patterns and on the 16th. I can do two by the 31st no problem. I don't know what the second one will be yet but I'll do my "Lady in Red" streamer first. It's killer at Pass Lake.
I echo everyone's sentiments on extending the deadline. I'm doing a sculpin and a "floating" minnow that fishes just below the surface...
Been down for the last week with a virus,, lost everything on my pc,, i mean everything. Just got it back today and am starting from square one. I'll have my flies done and off to you in the next week. Prolly looking at a Black Ghost and a Magog Smelt Salmon Chaser
Hey guys just wanted to let you know that i won't be able to send the flies out until mon. april 6 b/c my spring break falls between March 27-April 5 and i'll be busy slayin fish on the Mo and Bighorn rivers. you guys can send me the flies whenever you want...i just won't be able to send them out until i get back...so the due date will be anytime as long as i have them by april 6 so they can go out that day!
Cool, hey, about that little guppy in your avatar. Try to leave the little ones alone so they can grow up, alright?
Found a pattern that looked appealing to me at Hawkins River Outfitters called the "Little Rascal". Of course I modified it a bit to make it look like another rabbit strip, hackle and maribou pattern...had the stuff and tied up a set. The first three sucked, so they made it into my box. I think these merit a spot in a streamer box... Hook - down eye streamer size 6 3XL Head - gold bead Tail - narrow white rabbit, I cut it myself Body - same rabbit strip up 2/3 of the shank Flash - both lateral lines and over top Under hackle - olive dyed hen 4 wraps Over hackle - white maribou 4 wraps Meaty enough to bring up a big bow, brown or bull? Do trout like white meat? The Matuka pattern I'm pondering will be dark and meaty. Do trout like dark meat?
Just me and maybe a few others out there, but I have found that cones or dumbells work better on streamers. Just my 2/10th's of a cent but figured you may want to try it if you haven't yet. Damn good looking fly. I love white patterns, they always seem to work when all else fails. Tight lines.
That's it...well great. I like the olive that just peeks out of the white maribou hackle. I've got some cones that I'll be putting on another streamer. I did not want to only tie heavy as hell tougher to cast patterns and settled on the smallish gold bead. I've not fished streamers much other than buggers. Do some use unweighted patterns? Maybe lead wraps instead of beads/cones? I got some new streamer feathers to work on the other pattern, not sure how it will develop just yet. Thanks!
The only time I fish un-weighted patterns is with a sink tip. Lead and beads is never a bad idea. Often with cones I make a smallish wrap of lead to slide just under the rear lip of the cone. That can be used to keep the cone tight to the eye and prevent the cone from slipping and spinning.

Todd Kirk, at Kirk's Kustom Upholstery in Corryton, Tennessee, showcased his interior stitchwork. Todd covered the reworked '97 Acura bucket seats to fit the F-1 interior with Finesse Hunter leather. The Finesse Hunter leather was applied to the custom door and kick panels. A one-piece olive green Passion suede headliner consumed the entire roof and cab corners. Chris, at Precision Rod & Customs insulated the cab interior floor, walls, kick panels, and door panels with Dynamat before Todd installed the Emphatic II brocade pile carpet. The boys at Precision Rod & Customs fabricated the center console to house the Air Ride switches/gauge panel, along with the windows, and tonneau cover switches. The instrument pods were filled with Auto Meter Sport Comp black-faced gauges. A Wire Works Express System wiring harness was installed connecting all of the truck's electrical components.
Paul and Carol would like to thank Precision Rod & Customs, JR's Rods & Customs, Performance Automotive Machine and Engines, Papa Studios, Kirk's Kustom Upholstery, and Eric Brockmeyer Designs for collaborating their gifted talents and skills to produce this wonderful masterpiece. They say that there is nothing louder than Tennessee thunder and that holds true to Paul and Carol's '48 Ford F-1. You'll hear it before you see it.

Ciucu, Mariana and Datcu, Mihai (2004) Incremental clustering. ESA-EUSC Conference 2004: Theory and Applications of Knowledge driven Image Information Mining, with focus on Earth Observation, Madrid, Spain, 17-18 March 2004.
Full text not available from this repository.
Official URL: http://earth.esa.int/rtd/Events/ESA-EUSC_2004/
The generation of the objective information catalogue that enables further image mining functions needs the application of a similarity measure to group the points in the feature space. The generated clusters shall contain robust information on image-signal classes, and preserves an image and a spatial index. Due to the large volumes of data and to the incremental nature of the catalogue generation, "classical" clustering algorithms are limited in their use. For a new dataset we need to process all data set, the new and the old too. For these reasons we need a new algorithm compatible with the imposed conditions. We propose an algorithm for incremental clustering using grouping based on similarity of the local fractal dimension. By embedding the data set in an n-dimensional grid, we can compute the frequency with which data point fall into cell, and compute the fractal dimension. The fractal dimension is computed by box counting algorithm. The main concept of the algorithm is to add points incrementally to existing clusters, based on how they affect the fractal dimension of the cluster. The algorithm has two steps: initialization and cluster update. In the initialization step it is better if we have a sample of the dataset that is significant overall the feature space as that we can get a significant clustering (number and form), but we can work as well with a normal dataset. If the dataset used for initialization step does not reflect the true clusters structure, it is needed to do additional operations to optimize the groups of existing clusters, like splitting and merging. The algorithm requires one scan of the data, can cope with large dataset, needs only small space to describe the cluster (number of points of the box to use box counting algorithm), and is incremental.

how much time on motor before synthetic is ok??
ive been reading that its not a good idea to use a full-synthetic oil for break in so how much time do you guys recommend putting on a SBC before running synthetic? i have a rebuilt 283 that has about 6000km's on it and i want to start running mobil 1 or something similar but i want to make sure thats enough time. if not, would it be alright to "ween" it on to a full synthetic by changing it with a semi synthetic now and using mobil 1 or something next oil change?? ive asked everyone from race mechanics to machine shop employees and i get answers ranging from "at least 10,000k" to "just enough time to let the cam break in", so i thought id get some opinions from you guys. thanks alot

Re: how much time on motor before synthetic is ok??
If that were true the most expensive sports cars in the world wouldn't come from the factory with synthetic. On new cars I change to synthetic at 500 miles. On my street rods, I use it from day one. Centerline http://www.hotrodsandhemis.com |
I think what alot of people do not understand is the break in period for piston rings today. Most rings are designed to break in about as fast as the cam. The old days of rough cylinder walls and long break in periods are gone. From what I have read and been told, piston rings are fully seated by the time the engine goes through the proper cam breakin period. So, my vote is for switch to synthetic after initial break in. This is what I did on my turbo engine. It had about 20 minutes run time when I switched it, but it is a high output race engine and will see a rebuild before most engines have their second oil change.

On the engines from the GM factory using syn. oil the motors are run first then changed over from the regular oil to syn. type.
Using synthetic oils for break in is False, NEVER brake in a motor or it will be leaking/blow-by oil until its done correctly. TurboS10 is correct in his posting, after break in is OK to change. On a new car I change mine after 500 miles using Royal Purple. LOL George

SYDNEY — One man has died following a head-on collision on Highway 125 in Sydney River, Thursday morning.
RCMP say the victim was a 23-year-old Sydney Mines man.
Westbound traffic was being detoured at Exit 7 (Alexandra Street) while eastbound traffic was detoured between exits 6 (Sydney River) and Exit 7.
At approximately 8:25 a.m. today, RCMP, Sydney River Fire Department and Emergency Health Services responded to a report of a collision at Exit 6.
The Cape Breton Regional Police Service and Department of Transportation and Infrastructure Renewal are also assisting the RCMP at the scene.
A preliminary investigation revealed that a car travelling eastbound collided with a dump truck travelling westbound. Following the impact, the truck landed on its side. Both drivers were transported to Cape Breton Hospital by EHS.
An RCMP collision reconstructionist is assisting with the investigation. The cause of the crash has not been determined.
The name of the man has not yet been released.

quote:Agreed here; but in order to be an effective communication, it needs to start within the right framework. Calling those who believe these disgusting things (i.e., that it is okay to murder homosexuals) to repentance frames the dialog within a context that the audience already understands, and possibly accepts.
quote:And your theological arguments are not persuasive to me.
quote:I am not sure what conversation you think I am pointing at. I wasn't referencing any specific conversation or any specific person.
quote:I can point out for the millionth time that Jesus had nothing to say on homosexuality, the reasons why what Paul had to say on the subject don't mean what people think they mean, that the sin of Sodom wasn't homosexuality but inhospitality. You counter with, "Our prophet says X", and all my arguments are for nothing.
quote:That you don't understand my acceptance of Scripture does not mean it is inconsistent. It is quite consistent to me. There is, of course, no reason for you to understand why. I think that your acceptance of Scripture (what I know of it) is goofy, but I am sure it makes sense to you.
quote:Originally posted by kmbboots: Why don't you define "acting like a jerk" to see if we are talking about the same thing. Lots of people would consider saying the "polite" statement you proposed about to be acting like a jerk.
quote:Objective(ly): of or pertaining to something that can be known...existing independent of thought or an observer as part of reality.
quote:Antagonistic: hostile; unfriendly.
quote:As to observers, if one is polite -solely for their benefit- then questioning motives seems in order, but I am merely pointing out that courtesy has a side benefit of making you look good to people listening to the discussion. And I feel it is a basic human motivation to want to look good in the eyes of others. But it goes beyond that, if we are waging a battle for people's hearts and minds over moral issues, like gay rights. It helps our cause to be kind and calm, yet resolute. It helps to show people who might change their views or are sitting on the fence that our opposition are the ones calling for violence, the ones being hateful or malevolent while we remain respectful yet firm.
