What Are 10-Year Treasury Notes and How Do You Buy Them?
Original post by John Kibilko of Demand Media
A 10-year Treasury note is a type of U.S. Treasury security sold in order to finance federal debt. Treasury notes mature in more than one year, but not more than 10 years. In this way, notes differ from Treasury bills, which are short-term securities of less than one year. Notes can be purchased in the public securities market, or at federally operated auctions. The maturity date, yield and interest-rate coupon amount --- along with an investor's goals and resources --- affect the prices at which 10-year notes are sold.
Notes vs. Other Treasury Securities
U.S. securities include Treasury notes, Treasury bills --- often called T-bills ---T-bonds and Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS). Notes and T-bonds pay interest to holders every six months, paying the face value of the security upon maturity. Unlike notes, bonds mature after a time period of more than 10 years, and normally are sold in large increments --- $100,000 or more --- and to financial institutions. Treasury bills are short-term debt instruments that mature less than one year from the issue date. Investors buy T-bills for less than face value, and the interest paid equals the difference between the purchase price and the par value at maturity. A 26-week, $10,000 T-bill purchased for $9,500 would earn $500 in interest when it matures. TIPS pay interest semi-annually, with the principal value adjusted for inflation according to the Consumer Price Index.
Savings Bonds
U.S. savings bonds, unlike other types of securities, cannot be redeemed by anyone other than the registered owners. In other words, savings bonds cannot be transferred or sold on public securities markets or at auction. Savings bonds also are issued in both paper and electronic forms, whereas T-notes, T-bonds, T-bills and TIPS are provided only electronically. Treasury notes, bills, bonds and TIPS can be purchased for a minimum of $100, while U.S. savings bonds are sold in increments of $25.
Market Issues
Treasury notes are issued with future maturity dates of two, three, five, seven and 10 years, and are issued in increments of $100. Purchase prices and interest rates are determined at auction and the price can be more than, less than or equal to the face value, or par amount, of a note. Being a fixed-rate security, a Treasury note's price depends on its yield-to-maturity ratio and interest rate. For example, if the yield-to-maturity ratio is less than the interest rate, the purchase price will be more than par. If the yield to maturity is greater than the interest rate, the purchase price will be less than face value, and if it equals the interest rate, the note price will be equal to par. The actual formula, as provided by TreasuryDirect, is A = P x r [( d / t )/2], where A = accrued interest, P = face value, r = interest rate of a Treasury note, d = the number of days since the last coupon payment, and t = the number of days in the current coupon period.
How to Buy Notes
Treasury notes can be purchased through a private securities broker, government securities dealer, a bank or other financial institution, or through TreasuryDirect. All Treasury securities are issued in what's called the book-entry method, where entries are recorded in a central ledger. These entries can be conducted through commercial-bank form with your bank or broker. It is a multitier system involving the Treasury Department, the Federal Reserve, banks, brokers and other financial institutions. TreasuryDirect is an online system through which Treasury purchases can be made. Auction dates are published through various outlets, including lenders, brokers, dealers, TreasuryDirect and the Federal Reserve.

I edited the formatting of internal category a bit and added a link to internal infinity-groupoid
it looks like the first query box discussion there has been resolved. Maybe we can remove that box now?
I think that similar ideas for algebraic Galois group are used in Grothendieck's still unfullfilled ideas in his 1980s manuscripts and is in general known in Galois theory (covering spaces and higher Postnikov fibers have natural common generalizations in this context).
not sure if this is relevant for what you have in mind, but taking path oo-groupoids can be made into a map from a lined oo-topos to itself. For instance taking a topological oo-groupoid (might be just a topological space) to the topological oo-groupoid .
Same for smooth oo-groupoids. For the smooth model of String, one can start with the Lie 2-algebra , then form the smooth space (sheaf) which is such that its plots are precisely the flat -valued differential forms on . Then one can form the smooth oo-groupoid of that space. Finally, we can take from this simplicial sheaf degreewise the underlying concrete sheaf (=diffeological space) to get the smooth oo-groupoid . The claim is that that's a smooth version of .
This is discussed in some detail (though with slightly more antiquated tools than I have now) in section 5.2.3 here.
Concerning the categorical degree, I feel like remarking that it's only the homotopy groups (of an infinity-stack) that have intrinsic meaning, not the degrees of a truncated model.
Fur instance the goup looks like, well, a group, but it is equivalent to the 2-group that comes from the crossed module .
Similarly, the String 2-group is a -central extension of an ordinary group , hence a 2-group extension, but this is equivalent to a -central extension, which looks like a 3-group extension, but is really equivalent to the original 2-group extension.
@David: you wrote
In this context one needs to be au fait with Frechet manifolds, sadly an area where I am lacking.
I have a little facility with Frechet manifolds. Is there something here that I could help with?
@David:

PI_1(X) can indeed be topologised, but composition is only continuous when X is locally nice - locally connected and semilocally simply connected.

This is nice: if I'm not wrong here these are exactly the conditions for X to have a universal cover; also I find it nice that one needs more and more local regularity as higher covers come into play.

An easy way to see that the universal cover of a topological group X is topological is that the universal cover = the homotopy fibre of X --> Pi_1(X) at a point x = the source fibre of Pi_1(X) at x. This is a subgroup of the group of arrows, as Pi_1(X) is a strict 2-group as shown by Brown-Higgins in the 70s.

That's exactly what I was trying to say. what i think is important to stress is that there is a subtle interplay here between topological and groupoidal aspects: from the topological perspective one ends up with an object which is clearly a simply connected cover and then has to show that this carries a natural group structure; from the groupoids point of view, the object one ends up with is clearly a group, but one now has to show that it is a simply conneced cover. And an incredible elegant way to prove both things at a time is to perform the two constructions independently, and to see that they produce the same object. here I think there should be some very general argument a priori telling me that the two constructions will lead to teh same object, but I'm still missing this argument.

@Urs:

Concerning the categorical degree, I feel like remarking that it's only the homotopy groups (of an infinity-stack) that have intrinsic meaning, not the degrees of a truncated model.

edit: let me see if I correctly undersatnd this. if we start with the action groupoid of on what we are dealing with is not only a groupoid, but a groupal groupoid (since is a group and the -action is compatible with the group operation of ). so the 0-th truncation of this groupoid is a group. this 0-th truncation is evidently , so we should think of not as our basic object but rather as . right?
Just a comment, probably no news to anyone, but just for the record:
to realize the equivalence as a homotopy equivalence (morphisms going back and forth, being weak inverses) one needs to find suitable ana-2-functors, inverting the evident morphism from one 2-groupoid to the other, but for just knowing that the two are equivalent it is sufficient to have that one morphism and checking that it is a weak equivalence.
This is true for topological infinity-groupoid realizations of the situation and even for Lie-infinity-groupoid realizations.
For that one may observe that the functor is k-surjective for all k on all stalks of Top or Diff: these are the germs of n-dimensional disks (as described by Dugger in the reference cited at topological infinity-groupoid.) So for the standard n-disk of radius r, we form the groups of group-valued maps , and and then check that the functor of ordinary 2-groupoids is k-surjective for all k for some r small enough. And it clearly is: on any disk, any U(1)-valued function (continuous or even smooth) may be lifted to an -valued function, and the nonuniquenss of the lifts are precisely given by -valued functions on the disk.
but on second thought, I think a plausible perspective could be
Yes, precisely: very different looking objects may all be equivalent to the same 2-group, (or the same oo-groupoid). The highest degree of nondegenerate cells is not an invariant under this. Instead, the main invariants are the intrinsically defined homotopy groups
I find the use of AUT(K) something which works, but which is chosen in quite an arbitrary way. maybe it's worth creating a Schreier theory entry to discuss it
Yes, I agree with all you say here. As far as I am concerned: I don't have the energy and time this particular project right now, though. Probably later sometime.
Schreier theory is included in group extension entry.
It is instructive the way Faro et al. pharse in their article, placing the role of AUT K via interpreting the Grothendieck construction. I will once write about it.

The point of nonabelian cohomology is to _not_ use stable theory

so that's why it's called "nonabelian" or "unstable"! I should have known, but actually it was this remark above that really made me clear this fact, thanks!

still, I'd like to think of going from to as a suspension. in other words, when dealing with a cohomology with degrees I'd like to have two functors raising and lowering the degrees. in the stable theory these are looping and delooping, but one could have a nice theory in any case one has a nice shift.

this is somehow reminiscent of "old way" triangulated categories stuff. there teh shift functor is a basic datum; then in the stable infinity-category approach the shift is no more basic but it is recovered from homotopy pullbacks and pushforwards to the zero object. but we could still think of "unstable cohomology with degrees" as something coming from a shift functor which is not defined in terms of homotopy pullbacks/pushforwards to the zero object.

clearly, in order to have a nice and quite general theory, one would presumibly need not only the shift but also some good functorial behaviour. and then one could check that to indeed provides an example of this structure.
There are ways to define homotopy groups for topological groupoids
There is, by the way, something even more general: the notion of homotopy group (of an infinity-stack)
a classical example is . this suggests that the natural setting for cohomology in different degrees is a stable -category.
It is true that only if the coefficient object has arbitrary delooping that the above definition of makes sense for all . But there is a priori no requirement that such a definition needs to make sense. For general nonabelian coefficients degree cohomology is defined only up to some finite . This is a standard thing in the literature on nonabelian cohomology.
But you can always form loops to go don do lower degrees.
Am hereby moving an old Discussion-section from internal category to here
[begin forwarded discussion]
Previous versions of this entry led to the following discussions
+–{: .query} I think things are mutliply inconsistent in this entry. I do not want to change as I do not know what the intentional notation to start with was. If that mean that target is read at the left-hand side (composition as o, not as ;), while the diagrams before that suggest left to right composition. Then finally the diagram for groupoids has both for source and inverse, and there is only for right inverse, and one should also check convention, once it is decided above.-Zoran
You're right; I think that I caught all of the inconsistencies now. Incidentally, one needs only inverses on one side (as long as all such inverses exist), although it's probably best to put both in the definition. (For groupoids, one also needs only identities on that same side too! This proof generalises.) —Toby =–
+–{: .query}
Question: I've looked at the definition of category in for a while and still haven't been able to absorb it. Could we walk through an explicit example, e.g. "This is exactly what is, this is exactly what is, this is exactly what are, and this is how it relates to the more familiar context"? For example, an algebra is a monoid in . I'll try to step through it myself, but it will probably need some correcting. - Eric
Eric, one example to ponder is: how is an internal category in Grp the "same" as a crossed module? As a partial hint, try to convince yourself that given a internal category, part of whose data is , the group of arrows can be expressed as a semidirect product with acting on . The full details of this exercise may take some doing, but it might also be enjoyable; if you get stuck, you can look at Forrester-Barker. - Todd
Urs: I don't know, but maybe Eric should first convince himself of what Todd may find too obvious: how the above definition of an internal category reproduces the ordinary one when one works internal to Set. Eric, is that clear? If not, let us know where you get stuck!
Tim: I have just had a go at 2-group and looked at the relationship between 2-groups and crossed modules in a little more detail, in the hope it will unbug the definition for those who have not yet 'groked' it.
Eric: Oh thanks guys. I will try to understand how a small category is a category internal to Set first and then move on to category in Grp and the stuff Tim wrote. I'm sure this is all obvious, but don't underestimate my ability to not understand the obvious :)
Eric: Ok. Duh. It is pretty obvious for Set EXCEPT for pullback. Pullbacks in Set are obvious, but what about other cases? Why is that important and what is an example where there are not pullbacks? In other words, is there an a example of something that is ALMOST a category in some other category except it doesn't have pullbacks, so is not?
Tim: If I remember rightly the important case is when trying to work on 'smooth categories', that is, general internal categories in a category of smooth manifolds. Unless you take care with the source and target maps, the pullback giving the space of composible pairs of arrows may not be a manifold. (I remember something like this being the case in Pradines work in the area.) The point is then that one works with internal categories with extra conditions on and to ensure the pullback is there when you need it.
Toby: Usually in the theory of Lie groupoids, they require and to be submersions, which guarantees that the pullback of any map along them exists. =–
[end forwarded discussion]
at internal category has a bogus pdf link which redirects to internal category! Is somebody having a correct pdf link ?
Urs 25, when you delete a discussion and archive it, then please leave the backlink to the archived version from the old place, otherwise is essentially lost. I done it this time (into references).
I have created a new entry locally internal category and listed it under related notions at internal category.
@Zoran I was not sure what you meant by the first sentence of locally internal category. I have amended it to mean what I think you meant but please check.
I added a bit more.
Very nice, Mike !
On the other hand, why saying "in the sense of the appendix of (Johnstone)" at stack semantics, rather than more correctly attributing phrase "in the sense of Penon 1974". Is there a slight difference ? (I did not look at Penon's article yet; strangely I can find CR Acad Paris at the partly free gallica repository till 1973 and then again from 1979, but not for 1974-1978)
I resolved the bogus pdf link which was asked about it 26 and will correct it at internal category in a minute:
I didn't write that phrase at stack semantics. Feel free to correct it if you know the correct reference.
"in the sense of the appendix of (Johnstone)" was written by Ingo Blechschmidt.
It is not a mistake, just more people together know more about the history :) and it is good when we agree (as often mathematicians do not agree on history).
I have brushed-up the entry internal category a little. Added the remark on cartesian closure discussed in another thread to a Properties-section
I just noticed how hard it is (or was) to find the crucial discussion at 2-topos – In terms of internal categories if all one does is search the nLab for "internal category".
So I have now added a pointer to that at internal category by way of a brief paragraph a Properties – In a topos.
Should be expanded.

This paper reviews a recent donor-funded project concerning the introduction of post-harvest technology to poor hill farmers in India. Rather than conform to conventional development aid projects of either a "research" or an "interventionist" nature, it combines both approaches in a research-action program, which has more in common with a business development approach than a formal social science one. An important conclusion is that the work (and apparent success) of the project is consistent with an understanding of development that emphasizes the importance of innovation systems. It is also an example of the importance of continuous learning and of institutional change. In contrast to much conventional development aid, it is an interesting example of how projects can actually lead to long-term sustainable changes that survive the withdrawal of the donor, having built capacity that truly means self-sufficiency. It is therefore an approach that deserves careful consideration on the part of all participants in international development.

Bob Woods is president of Topside Consulting Group and former commissioner of the General Services Administration's Federal Technology Service.
As a former General Services Administration leader, this has been a painful time for me and my former colleagues. Not only do we believe GSA is still relevant and needed, but it is time for some real and positive change.
In my first all-hands meeting as commissioner of GSA's Federal Technology Service in the mid-1990s, I confided to our employees that I was a 25-year dissatisfied customer of the agency. Although I believed in capitalizing on the federal government's buying power to save the taxpayer money, I believed strongly that some at GSA had lost sight of the importance of agency customers and the ultimate customer, the American taxpayer. I secretly worried that such criticism could turn even our most dedicated employees against my agenda.
I could not have been more wrong. Our employees worked hard to serve our customers and provide IT and telecommunication services to them at unprecedented low prices. By the time I retired, we had driven long-distance telephone rates to levels not offered anywhere else in the world. Commercial rates followed ours, and residential rates followed the commercial ones.
Although current events are taking their toll on the agency's leadership, there is reason for hope and optimism. In the political and bureaucratic world of government, it is important to never let a crisis go unused or unheeded. The deeds of Jeffrey Neely and his colleagues are signs of other lapses in judgment governmentwide. While lawmakers on Capitol Hill rail about their outrage, key leadership positions are allowed to sit unfilled for months and years. We have a better chance of being killed by a meteor than having a federal budget done on time — that's Oct. 1, in case the last 13 years without an on-time budget have dulled your memory.
The current crisis should be examined for what it says about the need for fundamental change at GSA and other federal agencies. It is time to form a commission or task force of the Hoover variety to examine the causes of the current failures and determine what fixes are needed. The examination should be analytical, objective and nonpartisan. GSA performs a function that needs to be done and done well. Forcing that type of function back to the back rooms of individual agencies is not progress.
The next steps in the current saga will not be easy ones. The bloodletting and examinations are not over and might not be over for weeks or months. When they are done, GSA needs to be reformed according to today's rules and realities.
To start with, GSA has too many regions with too much autonomy. In the name of local innovation and empowerment, those 11 administrative units deliver 11 flavors of service with 11 interpretations of the rules and business processes. Customers and industry have long figured out how to shop for the answers they want and the conditions they prefer. Next, GSA needs a budget process overseen by the customers they serve. I cannot imagine a customer board of directors ever approving the conference that took place in this most recent debacle. And finally, there needs to be some basic training for senior managers on what it means to be good stewards of taxpayer dollars.
During a recent vacation, I saw a linen kitchen towel in a New Orleans gift shop. It said, "What happens tonight is on Facebook tomorrow." I guess the conference planning group missed that one.

Nominations for the 2015 awards are now being accepted -- here's what you need to know to put forth a winner.
While a number of things at GSA need fixing, what really bugs me are the Congressional hearings that are being put on by the Repubs for publicity sake only. The standard fare goes like this: Issa gives a speech full of hypocirtical sayings; the witnesses give a preliminary statement; the committee members than denounce the GSA, etc and that eats up about 90% of their time and the routine is repeated by each member. All these guys are after is their time on TV.
I wonder if there is the energy and the interest to implement these wise and thoughtfull recommendations. Leaders of Bob's ilk don't happen often and their advice is not always heeded. He was my commissioner when I was at GSA. I still remember he refused to have a car and driver like the other commissioners. The money was used to send our future leaders to school to get their MBA. Those of us that graduated from the program still toast him when we get together. And we pay for our own.
Bob's comments are very much on target. It is time for GSA to function as one cohesive organization and to truly live up to its oft-stated desire to be the epitome of excellence in customer service - in every region, in a systematic and predictable manner. There is a HUGE need for this, and a great, unfilled opportunity for GSA.
Part of the problem as well is that while a Regional Director for something (say Network Services or Fleet) has a dotted line to the associated Assistant Commissioner at FAS or PBS HQ, they are evaluated purely within the regional structure so regional directives/policies/desires take precedence. Revise the performance system to give the HQ functional lead written input into a performance evaluation (like an intermediate or senior rater in the military system) and those priorities start to shift.

There are other similar stores on the Internet around the world that might be able to supply the DVDs, LDs, VCDs, or video tapes that are desired. Check my Japanese Animation Information page for links to Internet resources that may have further information. I am not involved in trading materials from my own collection. I am still waiting to see most of the programs in this List of Anime Television Series and would be happy to find sources for many of them. Because of these circumstances I will not respond to requests for help to find these types of materials. |

Ooooookay so I totally forgot I had almost finished this song as a followup to "Forever." It's extremely similar because I started it right after I finished forever. As of now I can't locate the FLP so I can't really fix anything I wanted to before, so I decided to put the "rough draft" on Newgrounds. If I ever find the FLP maybe I'll do some more work on it, but it's unlikely.
Anyways, not much else to say, enjoy
Rated 5 / 5 stars

Rated 5 / 5 stars
What's wrong with 40 different songs?
Make it a "preview" song.
And I'd so like to hear a longer version of this, I'm going to hold off the 97/100.
For now, 5/5 and 93/100 will have to do.
lol thanks XD
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Amazing song.
The melody / tune was superb. The bassline was insane, and everything just worked together. Loved how fast it actually went, yet it stayed calm, for some reason. Probably good use of instruments and melody.
All in all, its a great song. I love it.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
This song could make an emo dance...
This is wonderful, i can't resist dancing to this song! The bass is wonderful, and the tune is flawless. I am going to show this song to all of my friends, i'm sure they will all love this song. Just one question, What is the BPM of this song?, i'm curious. ^^ 5/5

About this location
The Kotor Municipality region
Montenegro is truly magical. It has natural beauty, lovely beaches, clear lakes, fast rivers and gorgeous mountains. In the morning you can wake up along the beautiful Adriatic coast, have lunch on the banks of Skadar Lake, and enjoy the evening walks in the Montenegrin Mountains.
Kotor is one of the most beautiful coastal towns. It is surrounded by the big mountains that hang over the Boka Kotorska (Kotor Bay). The town lies at the foot of Mt Lovcen and is one of the best preserved medieval settlements in this part of the Mediterranean.
Kotor Old Town (a UNESCO World Heritage Site) with its perplexing narrow streets, squares, old buildings, churches, town walls, and gates is a must-see.
The Kotor Bay area has a warm and dry summer and a mild and humid winter. The warmest month is July with an average temperature of 25°C.
Muo is a picturesque fishing village in the Bay of Kotor. There are number of shops, bars and restaurants in the village, with even more a few minutes drive down the road in Kotor Old Town. There are many other beautiful towns and villages to explore, all within a short drive of the apartment. Car hire is highly recommended to fully enjoy the area. The apartments are more easily accessible by car than on foot.

Thanks for your review. The listing makes it clear that car hire is highly recommended to make the most of your stay and enjoy easiest access to the apartments, and that the apartments are not recommended for anyone with mobility restrictions. There are steps which provide on-foot access to the coastal road, which are not particularly difficult to use. I'm extremely surprised by the comment about the bathroom needing refurbishment? The apartment is only 4 years old and the bathroom has been furnished to a high specification. I have never received any negative comments about the bathroom previously.

The appartment is clean, clear, comfortable with a perfect view of Kotor Bay.
Car is highly recommended to explore all the beauties of hills and beaches of Montenegro.
It was one of our best trips in the last decade.

"Lovely apartment but restricted / difficult access on foot"
Apartment was clean on arrival but no change of bed linen or towels during 2 week stay. Insufficient sun loungers in pool area for number of apartments in blocks. Pool required cleaning / chemicals daily but this was done at peak times during day therefore restricting access. The shortcut described in the advert to the lakeside road - we were told we could not use it. Therefore very restricted for walking as service road was also in a very bad state. Some taxis refused to go up to the apartments because of the road. 20 minute walk to local shop 30 minute walk to Kotor town. Kotor is a lovely town with plenty of places to eat at reasonable prices.
All guests staying for more than a week have the option to request a change of linen and towels for a nominal fee. Pedestrian access to the coastal road is available via the stated shortcut. The main access road is currently being upgraded by the Kotor municipality and is expected to be completed prior to the 2013 summer season. Montenegro could be considered a little "backward" by Western standards - but that is part of its charm, together with stunning natural beauty!

My advert does make it clear that car hire is highly recommended to make the most of your stay. The water supply in Montenegro fails from time to time. This is not a problem with the apartment or the complex but rather a municipal problem which affects the entire area. The Kotor View complex does have a backup water tank but during high season this can run out quite quickly if the water supply to the area is not restored quickly.

deniseanderson4 5pts I love my 2011 RS Convertible Camaro. I have people of all ages stopping me. To comment of the car. The car is Sexy....Great way to bring sexy back!
OP2012 5pts I just bought a used 2012 with 2265 miles on it. It's that sparkling black, peanut butter rag top...V6. I love it. I've been driving a basic grocery getter since I started having kids. They are all grown and gone now, so I get to drive what I want. And I have been wanting to drive a Camaro for about as long as I can remember. I love the car, don't care what it weighs or if it does a great job in the figure 8. She looks great. ;)
syj1 5pts the people waiting for the next camaro are folks who spend hours on internet car forums criticizing the current car. Actual people who are in the market for a two door coupe are buying the current car. That's likely due to the fact that 99% of car purchusers could care less about how much their cars weighs. Current 5 series weighs 200-300lbs more than the last car and yet BMW is selling plenty of them. No one cares.
AmericanGangster 5pts I'm waiting for the 6th Gen Camaro. It better be @ least 200lbs lighter not 20lbs like the 2012 version.
92Vectra1.6i 5pts Since it was out of production for seven years thanks to GM's "brand managers" brilliance in deciding to replace the slightly overpriced (near $40k for a top of the line '02 SS convertible) Camaro with a very overpriced ($40k and up, way up) overweight, underpowered (until the last year or so of production) retractable roof (which they should have made an option to lower the weight and price) pick up (the SSR), the Camaro's real 45th anniversary will be 2018 !!!
VA.REBEL 5pts Have to differ on the steering wheel. 10-11 is better looking than the 2012 steering wheel. I like the one in my 2011 alot better than the 2012. 2012 looks like something they took from the Cruze. By the way my hands aren't made out of Legos. I will keep my 2011 steering wheel, thank you.
syj1 5pts 650i drop top is about 4600lbs folks. More luxury? Sure. V8? Yes. Still, if BMW thinks its OK to sell a convertible with that kind of weight and still consider it The Ultimate Driving Machine I dont get why folks are bent out of shape over the Camaro. Camaro is always heavy compared to Mustang- but not so much when compared against other large coupes. The G37 convertible is over 2 tons as well.
Roadmastah 5pts I see a funky little red splotch on the hood and some badges and stitching...how about hidden headlights and some performance improvements?Mark me down as pro weight-improvement (and baffled by people who aren't).
syj1 5pts What exactly do people think will happen if this car magically got lighter? It would be slightly more efficient and tossable in tight turns- but in NORMAL driving no one would no the difference. European performance cars (aside from Italian exotics) typically aren't all that light. The M5 is going to be 300lbs more than this Camaro yet I doubt people will be saying "Oh, I'll just wait for BMW to shave 800lbs from this beast and then I'll consider it". One thing you DONT read about the Camaro- harsh ride. GM obviously wanted an ideal ride/handling balance and achieving that requires a robust platform. Most customers would rather have pretty hood handling and a great ride over sports car handling with a stiff ride. Keep in mind, there are luxury sedans (M56 comes to mind) that dont even have the ride/handling balance down yet.
valdaviper1 5pts the c5 convertible vette's weighed 3,300 lbs, and that car was pretty much plastic..(i have one myself)...of course that car is a decade old, but still..this Camaro looks amazing, and this car was tested at higher altitudes if you read the current magazine..all in all, I'd still prefer this to the Mustang
The Heartbeat of America 5pts Augh, well.As MT stated, it's a fundamental problem that can't be fixed for this Generation 5 Camaro. The 6th Generation will hopefully be much lighter. I'm expecting the next generation Camaro to weigh as much as the Mustang. Maybe it will be a little bit lighter as well.C'mon Chevy, you've got the powertrains, just work on that weight problem.Just keep the styling please, the car looks gorgeous with its sheetmetal. People should see the paint in person.It really POPS and looks really good. Love the car overall.
pennrck22 5pts nice package overall. i like the interior treatments, paint, wheels, and the performance is enough for most. if chevy can keep fine tuning/addressing the short comings, im buying a CAMARO over an older VETTE
FullMonte 5pts The convertible is still striking to look at. With a little less weight, I hope the looks of the next generation are a little less edgy. As far as bang for the buck, it's hard to beat a base Camaro or Mustang coupe, though.
syj1 5pts @ibxDo you honestly think a RWD sports car with a backseat and V8 and drop top will weigh 3400lbs? The 3 series convertible weighs far more than that. Same for G37 and A4 Cabrio. Get real. MT tests a convertible and then complains about the weight. If you prefer low weight over an open top get the damn coupe. And dont hold your breath for the next gen car to drop 700lbs- not going to happen. 200? Perhaps.
syj1 5pts New review, same old nonsense. The car will keep selling though. Normal people dont buy cars based on curb weight. Cheap interior? Compared to what? All three of the current Pony cars (as well as Genesis) have some hard plastics inside. Even the "we cant find any faults" Mustang has tons of hard, black plastic- especially if you dont get the upgraded interior. It's slower than a V6 camry? Wow- same applies to cars like A4, G25, 328i, C300, etc. but you'll never hear MT make a big deal about that. Does the Camry have RWD and pull .9g on the skidpad or stop in 111ft? Nope- but why mention that when we can pretend 0-60 is all that counts. There are literally a few dozen cars that cost more than the Camry (many with RWD) that cant outrun it in a drag race. Who cares?
IBx1 5pts For the love of god, GM, make the next one weigh 3,400lbs or less with the same engines! We know you can do it! The Camaro looks awesome no matter what, but the Mustang really is easier and more rewarding to drive.
Fingerlling 5pts Que the Ford fans. ha ha. I know its a heavy car, but for carrying around a 400lb fat man and still only being out done by .1 is pretty impressive. My biggest thing about these cars. I love the head room you get in a Mustang, I will admit it is great. But if you have a bigger friend they cant even slide the seat forward a little bit. Where in the Camaro you can still get someone in the back seat with a big person up front. And when driving the mustang, it felt like my passenger was drooling on my shifting arm and i could smell the BO cause they are so close. I like that the Camaro doesn't make it feel like your having an interview with a serial killer, its more like talking with Walter.So i'm not on here to hate on the mustang, but I do think as a drivers car if you want passengers the Camaro is the better choice. I know the viability sucks because of the low roof line. But its a sports car, come one. I think people will care more about the looks then taking the extra second to peak in the mirror longer.
Lovemesomecars 5pts For 4,100 lbs I think the performance is on par, I can't wait to see how the LFX engine performs in the coupe which weights 3,800 lbs with a manual

Horizontes Antropológicos
Print version ISSN 0104-7183
GIL, Gastón Julián. La pasión según aldosivi: el "otro" y los combates por la identidad. Horiz. antropol. [online]. 2008, vol.14, n.30, pp. 137-164. ISSN 0104-7183. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0104-71832008000200006.
This paper aim at analyzing the way the anthropological concept of identity operates among football supporters in a small team of the third division in Argentina, who elaborates their own theories about the passion. In these representations, they construct the difference with their rivals, mixing up class, ethnic and gender references and attitudes towards violence. Then, they are involved in permanent disputes (much of them are very violent) in the supporting of the group honor. In these combats for the identity, the representations are manipulated by groups of power that generate "markets of violence" but reject from the discourse.
Keywords : football; identity; reciprocity; violence.

Four Seminal Thinkers in International Theory: Machiavelli, Grotius, Kant, and Mazzini
Martin Wight was one of the most profound and influential thinkers on international relations of his time; and his work is increasingly discussed, appraised, and drawn upon today. His earlier volume of posthumously-published lectures - International Theory: The Three Traditions - is now regarded as a seminal text. That volume is here complemented and completed. In these four lectures Wight takes the archetypal thinkers of the three traditions - Machiavelli, Grotius, and Kant- to whom he adds Mazzini, the father of all revolutionary nationalism (and so the prototype of such as Nehru, Nasser, and Mandela) and subjects their writings and careers to a masterly analysis and commentary. This volume has been prepared and edited by Gabriele Wight and Brian Porter, and contains an important new introduction to Wight's thought by Professor David S. Yost. The volume also contains a preface by Sir Michael Howard, CH.

A good machine shop will NOT modify a dampner nor a flywheel (nor clutch) to balance an engine. Either part should be a standard "off the shelf" part. By what you said, a zero balance 350 flywheel is what you need. Note: with a "cross balanced" crankshaft a stock dampner will NOT adequately dampen harmonics of the crankshaft. An aftermarket unit is mandatory. check out www.readershotrods.com drag cars/georges drag strip |
All you needed in the first place was a 400 damper and a 454 flywheel. What's with all this Mallory metal??
454 flywheel?! The flywheel actually on the 383 is a Hayes 10-130 wich is for:1955-1985 chevys V-8 except 400s and 454s...I bought that car with this into it so I don't know why its been choosen among other hayes flywheels! But it was certainly working allright! The work order report done on this engine last fall says: ballanced external in the front (400 damper) ,internal at the rear with two malory (neutral flywheel). Hayes web site refers to that flywheel as a neutral without counterweights onto it..I kind of remember the machinist telling me that the GM 400 crankshaft while allowing the use of malory at the rear didn't offer any possibility to do the same at the front.. SO what I understand is the flywheel can be changed without worrying about reballancing but I am not sure about the clutch itself..isn't a clutch assembly in need of being taken in account when ballancing? confused somewhat here!! thanks,Ronald. |
When we balance an externally balanced engine, we first measure and correct (if needed) the imbalance in the balancer and flexplate/flywheel (Some can be WAY off). That way if these pieces need replacement, the new pieces can be measured and made like the originals.
Balancing the back neutrally while leaving the front externally balanced doesn't make much sense to me. They'd have some 'splaining to do if it were mine..........But the fact that they did something like that may help explain why it burns oil. tom |
Tom, Thanks for your explanations...Yes from my invoicing I can say this is the way the motor got ballanced..external/front and internal/rear.. Could you explain ,what in your opinion,can finally get an engine consuming oil when balanced in such an odd way? Ronald. |
That engine can be balanced that way with no problems, I don't however know why they modified the balancer which should have stayed at the stock imbalance for replacement reasons. A nuetral balanced flywheel makes it easy to replace when necessary which is a great plus, especially if you ever decide to switch over to an automatic for example. Most shops don't bother with balancing the pressure plates as they are supposed to be nuetral balanced from the manufacturer, the clutch disc is never balanced so as an assembly it really is never perfect. Another option rather than using heavy metal is to use a balance plate that gets bolted on with the flywheel and can be used again and again to keep the assembly balanced when flywheels/flexplates are changed. It sounds to me that maybe your balancer wasn't the right imbalance so maybe the shop tuned it in to where it should be. Talk to them. The balance shouldn't really effect ring and valve stem seal IMO so I'd lok for other causes for the oil consumption, bad ring seal, bad valve guide seal, leaking intake gasket, poor crankcase ventilation setup, etc...
thanks for your help, Ronald. |
I was thinking that unless they had a good reason to add the heavy metal to the back of the crank (perhaps you just had to use that particular flywheel?), they had less than practical reasons to do so. In that case, perhaps they have strange methods of bore finishing that may explain the oil burning. I didn't mean to imply that balance can influence oil burning---it can't.
tom |
454's are externally balanced, so if you want a stick-shift 383, you use a 400 damper and a 454 flywheel. If you ever want to revert to an auto trans, just replace the 454 flywheel with a 400 flexplate. Problem solved.
I bought that car with already in it that 10-130 hayes flywheel initially meant for plain 350s(now I understand this)...this case obliged for internal balancing through mallory into the crank..another possibility would have been drilling holes onto the flywheel and attach counterweights onto it..my understanding anyway. But for one reason or another my machinist decided to go by mallory into the crank. The following is adressed to Machine Tom: The reason (from what I can remember)given to me by the engine rebuilder for having not internally balanced in the front is that the crank being a GM cast number 529 crank didn't allow the use of mallory onto the front counterweights (or similar) as he could (and did) do in the rear counterweight (s)...makes sense to you? He told me that with an eagle or other aftermarket he could have done it all internally but not with my crank...he sounded like knowing what he was talking about. But I can understand and accept the fact of different opinions and ideas on a same subject. just as a PS I have the hynes balancing report on hands and cannot figure it out..at least some part of it! If I'd give the numbers here somebody could explain me the missing links? thanks,Ronald. |
I suspected that was the deal with the flyhweel. Personally, I'd have suggested that you get the proper flywheel and balanced the crank normally. The cost difference would have offset somewhat by not needing the heavy metal installation.
You are correct about the flexplate weights. I use a Hines balancer and can probably answer your questions about the balance documents. tom |
The 400 has a 25.1 OZ/IN imbalance. The 454 has a 33.64 OZ/IN imbalance. Enough difference to cause problems. tom |
I'll take advantage of your knowledge for sure..thanks. What I have on the balancing specs sheet are the followings: piston:483,piston pin:129,piston rings:49,pin locks:4,total rod:567,insert:45,rotary:445,reciprocating:1664 (nothing indicated as the % factor found on the same line),bob weight:1726. I assume the total of all those,up to the two last figures,represent the total minimum weight of each one piston/rings/rods etc,...all other 7 similar having been adjusted to the said minimum!? while "piston,rings,pin,etc are easily identified I don't know what "rotary" refers to!? When adding each individuals weights we get a total of 1722...close to the 1726 indicated as bob weight...can I think of bob weight as the mallory used to counterweigh the 1722..that would be a balanced to 4 gramms ? If so that sounds far from the 1/2 gramms precision we are referred to as the excellent balancing figure.. Wouldn't normally each throw having had received such counterweight as in my mind each of the 7 pistons and parts weigh the same 1722...I my report indicate two malory only installed at the rear.. Finally the 1664 gramms as the "reciprocating " number...what does it represent? can you thrown in some explanations? thanks, Ronald. |

Indiana University to host installation ceremony for Chancellor William Lowe at IU Northwest on October 29
Ceremony to be preceded by a public 'campus and community conversation' facilitated by consultant Jeff Johnson
The installation of Dr. William J. Lowe as the sixth Chancellor of Indiana University Northwest will be held on Friday, Oct. 29 at 3:30 p.m. CDT in the Savannah Recreation Center. The Chancellor's installation theme will focus on a renewed partnership between IU Northwest and the greater community. Prior to the formal installation, Chancellor Lowe and the university will host a special public event, "IU Northwest and Community-Based Engagement: Building Our Future Together," in Savannah's Bergland Auditorium from 1 p.m. until 2:30 p.m. This "campus and community conversation" will be led by facilitator and consultant Jeff Johnson. The program will focus on ways that IU Northwest, the City of Gary and the Northwest Indiana region can foster greater partnership and collaboration for the benefit of all. Immediately following the formal installation ceremony for Dr. Lowe, there will be a reception to celebrate this important milestone in the life of the campus in the Shadows and Echoes Sculpture Garden, weather permitting, or in the Savannah Center lobby. The formal ceremony and celebratory reception are open to all IU Northwest students, staff, faculty, invited community members, and community conversation participants. Dr. Lowe joined IU Northwest as the campus's sixth Chancellor and 12th chief administrator on July 1, 2010, succeeding Dr. Bruce Bergland. Lowe came to IU Northwest from Metropolitan State University in St. Paul, Minn., where he had served as provost and vice president for academic affairs since 2003. He served as interim president of that university from 2007-2008 and was also a professor of history. The Savannah Recreation Center is located at the southeast corner of the main campus parking lot at 33rd Avenue and Broadway in Gary. Free parking is available in the main campus lot. To RSVP for the Installation Ceremony, the Community Conversation, or both, please email Delores Crawford in the Office of External Relations at email@example.com, or call (219) 980-6800.

Wang, Peng Fei (2006) Design and performance analysis of VDSL systems with per-tone equalization. Masters thesis, Concordia University.
| PDF - Accepted Version 3750Kb |
Digital subscriber line (DSL) is considered as an attractive approach to transmit high-speed data due to its advantage in the provision of affordable broadband services in a wide range of end users without massive capital outlays. Very-high-speed DSL (VDSL) is the latest generation of the xDSL family. It is a promising internet access technique for broadband services, which is capable of supporting high-definition television (HDTV), Voice over IP, and general Internet access over a single twisted pair of wires. In order to overcome the harsh VDSL transmission environment and to realize a reliable high-speed data transmission, equalization technique is required at the receiver to compensate for the channel attenuation and distortion. In this thesis, we focus on the design and performance study of VDSL systems using the per-tone equalization (PTEQ). Some background material pertaining to VDSL systems and equalization techniques is first presented. The per-tone equalization technique is then investigated. Based on a two-port model of the subscriber loop, namely, the so-called ABCD theory, the transfer function of various VDSL test loops are well formulated and simulated. A practical VDSL system with configurations following the standard as well as the PTEQ in the receiver is designed and simulated. Performance study is conducted over several VDSL test loops with various channel conditions, showing a great improvement on the SNR of the received signal and the overall transmission bit-rate of the VDSL system as a result of employing the PTEQ. In order to reduce the computational complexity of the training-based PTEQ initialization, a few adaptive schemes based on the NLMS and SR-RLS algorithms are proposed. Various simulation results regarding the convergence speed of the two adaptive algorithms, the number of equalizer taps and different VDSL test loops are presented. A comparison of the performances of the two adaptive initialization schemes is also presented
