Blankiet Paradise Hills Vineyard Proprietary Red 2007
Bordeaux Red Blends from Napa Valley, California
Critical Acclaim
The Wine Advocate - "The 2007 Paradise Hills Vineyard Proprietary Red (60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot) exhibits abundant notes of espresso, chocolate, creme de cassis, blackberry, forest floor and graphite. Full-bodied, dense and rich, it is just beginning to reveal some secondary nuances as well as complexity. There are 940 cases of this big, rich 2007 that should continue to drink well for two decades." -
International Wine Cellar - "Good dark ruby-red. Expressive aromas of currant, smoky oak and licorice. Large-scaled, voluptuous and wonderfully sweet; this fills the mouth and saturates the olfactories with an almost candied ripeness. Maintains its outstanding breadth clear through to the compellingly sweet back end, which features big, broad tannins and a repeating note of licorice. One could virtually chew this."
Blankiet Winery
Blankiet Estate was created in 1996 by Claude Blankiet and his wife, Katherine. It is located in the western hills of Yountville in Napa Valley. From 46 acres on the foothills of the Mayacamas range, 16 acres of vineyard have been developed by renowned viticulturist David Abreu. Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc were planted on volcanic ash and fractured rock, and Merlot on the clay deposited by streams draining the mountain ridge above. Helen Turley was hired as winemaker and responsible for the first eight vintages. Then in 2006, Martha McClellan-Levy took over winemaking, assisted by oenologist, Michel Rolland from Pomerol. Robert Parker validated the potential of Blankiet's terroir stating that the wines produced "combines the extraordinary power of the site with unbelievable elegance and definition." Future plans for the vineyard include planting of additional Cabernet Franc and a small amount of Petit Verdot. View all Blankiet Wines
About Napa Valley
It's hard not to think of Napa Valley when thinking of California wines. The region is, after all, the one that brought world recognition to California wine making. The area was settled by a few choice wine families in the 1960's who bet that the wines of the area would grow and flourish. They were right. The Napa wine industry really took off in the 1980's, when vineyard lands were scooped up and vines were planted throughout the county. A number of wineries emerged, from large conglomerates to small boutiques to cult classics. Cabernet Sauvignon is definitely the grape of choice here, with many winemakers also focusing on Bordeaux Blends. Whites are usually Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc.
Notable Facts
Within the Napa Valley lie smaller sub-AVAs that lend even more character specifics to the wines. Furthest south is Carneros, followed by Yountville, Oakville & Rutherford. Above those two is St.-Helena and finally, just grated an AVA, Calistoga. These areas are situated on the valley floor and are known for creating rich, smooth Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Chardonnay. There are a few mountain regions as well, nestled on the slopes overlooking the valley AVAs. Those include Howell Mountain, Stags Leap and Mount Veeder. Wines from the mountain regions are often more structured and firm, benefiting from more time in the bottle to evolve and soften.About California
It's not rare to see a wine's country of origin listed as "California." A country into itself in the wine world, California makes enough varieties and styles to match many European wine countries. It produces a diverse range of wines that span the quality spectrum.The most famous of the California wine regions is Napa Valley, and these wines are certainly outstanding – but it's not as broad and diverse as its larger neighbor, Sonoma County. Down south, Santa Barbara's Santa Maria Valley is well-known for its Rhône blends, as well as cool-climate varieties like Pinot and Chardonnay. The Central Coast, the largest California AVA, has many different microclimates that lead to a wide range of wines with many sub-AVAs.

Most wine ranges from 10-16% alcohol by volume. Some varietals tend to have higher (for example Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon) or lower alcohol levels (Pinot Noir and many white varietals), but there is always some variation from producer to producer. Some wine falls outside of this range, for instance Port weighs in closer to 20%, while Muscat and Riesling are usually a bit below 10%.Wine Style Guide
Light & Fruity
- Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Smooth & Supple
- Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Earthy & Spicy
- Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Big & Bold
- Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.

Charity Giving
you can prove anything with facts
Nick Windsor 4 wrote (see)
You miss the point, those who work hard ENOUGH and train hard ENOUGH do not find themselves in that situation
This is complete nonsense and twaddle. there is no factual basis behind that statement at all.
Very many people who work hard and train hard find themselves in positions of redundancy, unemployment, reduced income all the time for all manner of reasons, often totally out of their control.
I've worked in industries which have gone through boom and bust. It doesn't matter how hard you work or how much training you do, if the area of your employment or expertise crashes it's very easy to find yourself out of work, competing for only a few jobs with other highly qualified and skilled individuals. That's only one small example - retrain of course but that takes time and money. use what skills you have to move into another field of work but that often means starting at a lower pay grade and retraining.You don't know how redundancy / unemployment / financial worries will affect any given individual, some people may take it as a challenge, others may take it as a knock and it destroy their self worth. You can't make swinging assumptions based on your own character and experience.
Oh just as Cougie says, shit happens and I'm wading in the stuff up to my ass.
But it's ok cos I'm going to come out smelling of roses so sod everyone else. I'm happy.
I thought we'd already established that Eggy is not unemployed -or have you actually swapped your blinkers for a blindfold this morning?
Your argument is one of the worst I've ever seen, based on something you've pulled out of your head and not based on any facts whatsoever. I suggest to you that's its a case of hating what you most fear i.e. that having faced redundancy several times you know how close you might have come to other people thinking that way about YOU. It's great that it gave you the drive to go out and find work. It isn't great that it stripped you of your empathy and clouded any sensible reasoning.
Perhaps your real angst shuld be towards companies like Tesco who make huge profits but still have employees that need propping up by the taxpayer because they don't earn a living wage. The boss, meanwhile, earns something like 7m annually in pay and bonuses.
Oh and you do realise that the term "Daily Mail Reader" can be metaphorical as well as literal don't you?
I don't make regular charity donations, but do make occasional one off ones (after a disaster for example).
However, I work in the charity sector and hence earn about £10-15k less that I'd get for a similar job in the commercial sector. I also regularly volunteer my time.
I think of this as as good as a donation, but occasionally feel that maybe I should do more.
Colin McLaughlin wrote (see) I gave about 12 doses of blood in my younger days but then stopped giving because I felt I should be paid for it. (Yes, I know it would attract the wrong sort of people, but nonetheless the NHS pays for everything else. Why should they get blood free?)
Colin McLaughlin wrote (see)
I read this yesterday, but couldn't reply becauase of the restrictions at work but felt I had to ask you Colin what do you mean by "The wrong sort of people?"Are you trying to say that blood from people who would want paying is of lesser quality?
I don't think you're right in assuming that, it raises another point though, if I give blood and it used on NHS patients that's fine and to be expected, if I give blood and it goes to private medicine and is used in an operation where the patient or his insurance company will be charged, is it morally correct to charge for blood I have given free and in good faith.
Wilkie I don't give to charity but I do pay tax at the higher rate which is basically the same, and is basically unfair
Gosh yes, the very first thing I thought when I entered the higher tax bracket was "how unfair, I've been given a huge pay rise and now have to pay more tax to give to charities!"
I don't understand the argument that paying tax = charitable donations. We don't have a choice but to pay tax, and we have little say (beyond voting) as to how our taxes are spent. Is my employer giving to charity because I chose to give some of the money they pay me to charity?
Anyway, if you want to give to charity - give. If you don't - don't. But it would be refreshing if people had the spine to say "I don't want to give money to charity" instead of trying to pretend the reason they don't is because the government does it for them.
Another question - if it was possible to opt-out of paying the proportion of your tax that goes to charity, would you donate that money to charity yourself?
I'm not sure what you're getting at EKGO.
As I understand it, the blood service is run by the NHS.
Someone paying for private treatment is paying for just that - the treatment - not the blood, which they would be entitled to from the NHS anyway.

when he said that payment would attract the wrong type of people he meant people like himself who are only willing to save a life if he gets paid for it....one blood donation can now save the life of several newborn babies........
but if the government can't find the money to pay Colin for his huge time and effort why on earth should he care about the life of a newborn baby.its not his child or grandchild.....
Fair enough, so actually what the government spends your taxes on is irrelevant to your choice not to donate money to charity
If we've got a problem with paying tax in general, or higher rate tax in particular, we can always immigrate to a jurisdiction where tax laws are more favourable. Otherwise just suck it up as the opportunity cost of living and working in the UK and stop trotting out the "I pay my taxes" line. It's very overdone.
if you object to paying taxes you can always ask to be paid less so that you pay less....
Cougie you're right of course but part of being prepared is being ready to exit, my contract always provides for 6 months notice in my favour, or I don't take it on.
So, now you seem to be damning those who are unemployed through redundancy, because they weren't 'prepared' enough to only take a job which had a 6 month notice contract?
Indeed, Seren!
"Oh no, please don't pay me more! I don't agree with the government's policy on foreign aid!"

hi, I'm working on an ide driver.Whenever a DMA read operation is started,i never recieve the DMA interrupt.The staus register at offset 00h shows value ' 0 ',which means that the descriptor table specified a smaller buffer size than the programmed IDE transfer size. But occassionaly i recieved the DMA interrupt. Actually this driver works well on another board.On that board whenever i reduced the buffer size in physical region descriptor table to less than the current size in the PRDT table,i again got the same error. I think this confirms that whenever we give smaller size in PRDT than the programmed IDE transfer size,status register shows ' 0 ' value. Please tell me where in kernel that programmed IDE transfer size is being set.The transfer size in PRDT on the other board(on which driver shows no problem) varied from 4k to 1k ,which means it is changed frequently. shahzad |

WASHINGTON -- Three growing entitlement programs consumed nearly half of all federal spending in 2004, and budget analysts expect them to make up an even bigger share in the future.
Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid accounted for more than $1 trillion in the 2004 budget year, according to the Consolidated Federal Funds Report, released today by the Census Bureau.
Overall federal spending was $2.2 trillion, an increase of 5 percent from 2003.
''The total federal spending increase is actually down a bit from recent years," said Gerard Keffer, chief of the Census Bureau's federal programs branch. ''It had been running 6 to 8 percent in the past several years."
For years, Washington has been fighting over how to manage the growth of entitlement programs. Analysts think the fight will continue for years to come.
''I think it's absolutely essential and inevitable that we are going to reform those programs," said Rudolph Penner, a senior fellow at the Urban Institute, a social issues research organization. ''How, is another question. There's very little interest, now."
President Bush has pushed to overhaul Social Security and establish private accounts, but Congress has balked.
Critics argue that private accounts would do nothing to slow the growth of Social Security spending -- unless benefits are cut, a politically unpopular option.
Spending on Medicare, the federal health insurance program for the elderly, is set to increase with the introduction of the Part D drug benefit next month.
The federal government estimates it will spend about $724 billion over 10 years to provide the Medicare drug benefit.
Other factors contributing to spending increases include an aging population and soaring healthcare costs, Penner said. The oldest baby boomers will start turning 60 next month, and once they start qualifying for Social Security benefits, costs will grow at an even faster pace.
Penner said increased spending on entitlement programs eventually will mean less money for other programs and increased pressure to raise taxes.
''I think they're going to squeeze out all sorts of other spending items," said Penner, former director of the Congressional Budget Office.
The Census Bureau compiles the federal spending report each year with information from about 50 federal agencies, Keffer said. One purpose is to show how much federal money goes to each state.
The report excludes spending on foreign aid, international affairs and interest payments on the national debt, a total of about $200 billion in 2004, because those items do not go to individual states, Keffer said.
It also does not specify spending for the Central Intelligence Agency, the Defense Intelligence Agency, or the National Security Agency because those budgets are classified, Keffer said.
Among the report's findings:
One third of all federal spending went to five states in 2004: California, New York, Texas, Florida, and Pennsylvania.
California led all states with $232 billion.
Wyoming received the least money, $4.4 billion.
Alaska received only $8.4 billion. But with its relatively small population, it led the nation in per capita federal spending, at $12,885 a person.
Nevada received the lowest per capita amount, $5,469 a person.

Windows 7 Present on 42% of PCs by End of 2011: Gartner
Microsoft's Windows 7 will become the leading operating system worldwide by the end of 2011, according to research firm Gartner.
Microsoft's Windows 7 is primed to become the world's leading operating system by the end of 2011, according to a new research report from Gartner. Windows 7's expected presence on 42 percent of PCs in use by the end of the year should come as no surprise, considering how the operating system comes loaded on the vast majority of new PCs shipped by Microsoft's manufacturing partners. On top of that, Microsoft has spent years encouraging businesses large and small to upgrade to Windows 7, something that's been helped by growth in IT budgets over the past several quarters.

Security Patch Watch: Sun Java, Symantec, Cisco
Security Patch Watch: Sun Java, Symantec, Cisco
Chris Preimesberger
Posted 2005-11-30
Sun patches JRE and the Java SDK, Symantec patches its PCAnywhere telecommute software and Cisco patches a vulnerability in Cisco Security Agent.
Sun Microsystems Inc. on Wednesday released fixes for vulnerabilities discovered in the Sun Java Runtime Environment and in the Java Software Development Kit, which could be exploited by remote attackers to place and execute malicious files on a vulnerable system. Security alerts aggregator
Secunia Inc. rates the issue as "highly critical"
and said malicious hackers could exploit the exposure to "compromise a users system."
For advice on how to secure your network and applications, as well as the latest security news, visit Ziff Davis Internets
Security IT Hub
An unspecified error may be exploited by a malicious, untrusted applet to read and write local files or execute local applications, Secunia said. The vulnerability has been reported in JDK/JRE 5.0 Update 3 and prior on Windows, Solaris and Linux platforms. SDK/JRE 1.4.2_xx and prior, and 1.3.1_xx releases are not affected, the security firm said. Suns suggestion for administrators is to upgrade all versions of the development kit and accompanying runtime. JDK/JRE 5.0 Update 4 or later can be downloaded
SDK/JRE 1.4.2_09 or later is available
and SDK/JRE 1.3.1_16 or later can be obtained
Symantec corrects flaw that could lead to DoS
Enterprise security vendor
Symantec Corp. has issued new patches
for its PCAnywhere PC management software, which could be exploited to cause a DoS (Denial of Service), the company said. PCAnywhere is a telecommuting tool that provides remote software control for consumers and large organizations. The software is also used for help desk applications and troubleshooting PC problems at remote offices. The exposure is caused by an unspecified boundary error that can be exploited to create a buffer overflow prior to authentication, which crashes the PCAnywhere component, Symantec said. The vulnerability has been found in versions 11.0.1, 11.5.1 and all 32-bit versions. Earlier non-supported versions may also be affected, Symantec said, so it recommends that users of all versions prior to 11.0.1 to upgrade to a supported version. The upgrade to the consumer version of Symantec PCAnywhere can be found
and the update to the enterprise version can be obtained
Cisco systems reports hole in its own security software
A vulnerability has been reported in Cisco Systems Inc.s own
Cisco Security Agent,
which can be exploited by malicious local users to gain escalated privileges on a compromised system, Secunia reported. The vulnerability is due to an unspecified error in CSA versions that run on Windows systems. This can be exploited by malicious users to gain high-level administrative privileges on vulnerable systems, Secunia said. According to the companys Web site, Cisco Security Agent provides threat protection for server and desktop computing systems, also known as endpoints. It provides host intrusion prevention, spyware/adware protection, protection against buffer overflow attacks and malicious mobile code protection, Cisco said. The vulnerability has been reported in the following versions:
Cisco CSA Version 4.5.0 (all builds) managed and stand-alone agents.
Cisco CSA Version 4.5.1 (all builds) managed and stand-alone agents.
Cisco CSA Version 4.5.0 (build 573) for CallManager.
Cisco CSA Version 4.5.1 (build 628) for CallManager.
Cisco CSA Version 4.5.1 (build 616) for ICM (Intelligent Contact Management), IPCC Enterprise and IPCC Hosted.
Cisco CSA Version 4.5.0 ( build 573) for CVP (Cisco Voice Portal) 3.0 and 3.1. Cisco and Secunia recommend that all systems using the above CSA builds update to version 188.8.131.529. That patch can be obtained

Delayed baggage
It's never pleasant to find out your bags are delayed or lost, and the last thing we want is for your trip to be spoiled because of it.
If your baggage does not appear on the baggage belt, please make sure you speak with baggage hall staff and make a report (known as a PIR - Property Irregularity Report ) there and then. We can't begin to look for your bag and neither can we accept responsibility for delayed luggage unless you report it before leaving the airport.
We take delayed baggage seriously:
- We have baggage services staff at every airport we fly into. If they're not by the baggage belt, you'll find them at a service desk within the baggage hall area.
- Our Central Baggage Tracing and Claims departments are situated in the UK.
- We belong to the global baggage tracing network, WorldTracer – linking us to the baggage offices of more than 2,200 airport locations.
When reporting delayed baggage to our baggage hall staff:
- Be sure to give us an accurate description of your bag – any distinguishing features you can think of will help us to locate it more easily. It's always worth having a picture of your luggage on your phone, just in case.
- You'll be able to monitor the progress of the tracing procedure in relation to your bag. Get in touch with our baggage services staff at the airport where you reported your delayed bag, or our central baggage tracing department in the UK. Alternatively you can login to our baggage tracing page to check online (you'll need the 10-character reference number we give you when you report the delay).
- Contact numbers for our baggage services are listed by airport.

Buying essential items when your baggage is delayed
We understand you may need to buy some essential items such as cosmetics, toiletries and basic clothing to keep you going until we can find your baggage.
As long as you let our staff in the baggage hall know your bag has not arrived and they create a Property Irregularity Report, we will reimburse you for these essential purchases when you return home up to the value of $50 if you're in the States, or the equivalent of £50 in all other destinations. To make a claim, please ensure you keep all the receipts and send them to our Baggage Claims Department.
If your bag turns out to be irretrievably lost, we'll deduct any sum paid for essential items from the final settlement costs.

Thanks Collin!
Hey Collin, if it prints like the above coupon with (Walmart) written on it then you cannot use it at CVS. Cvs coupon policy restricts us from using any manufacturer coupon with another stores logo on it. This is a no go with the $1/1 printable.
Hi Nick!
Fortunately, as you can see from my coupon picture above, the coupon actually does not print with any Walmart logo – just the word Walmart – which is not considered a logo. You should be fine using it at CVS! Hope that helps! :)-
Would you mind calling my manager then LOL? I've called cvs corporate to try and explain this but they told me it the same thing. Oh well, there is always another deal :).
I was told the same thing. I called CS and was told it can't have the name of another store, even if it says "available at" at all on it. And per the MODs over at other forums, they don't advise using this coupon b/c of the WM wording.
I must have the best CVS around! The cashiers there NEVER give me any trouble with any coupons, and are always so excited for the deals I get at the register!
Yes, we cannot use this coupon at CVS as per their policy
time for some copy and paste on my printer and if it beeps i'll make sure they don't take it
As a workaround, try pricematching this at Walmart (or Target if they carry this brand)? :)
I can't get the coupon with my zip code – can someone give me a zip code that works? Thanks!
Try 77477!
If the deal is 2 for 10, can't you use two of the 1/1 or .25/1 coupons?
The $6 final price reflects the use of (2) $1.00 coupons.
I wish we had a cvs in Colorado
I could only get one to print :(
What do y'all think of this toilet paper? Never tried it!
The Sparkle or the Angel Soft? The Sparkle paper towels are pretty awful, IMHO. I wouldn't go out of my way to get them even if they were free. They are very very thin.
There is also a $1.00 off One (1) 12 double roll or larger package Angle Soft Bath Tissue exp 2/17/13
Where would i find this coupon?
The total per roll will be $0.50, is that correct? Yes, you must point out the policy that states logo not name. These coupons can be used at CVS I woul contact the regional manager prior not corporate I found that most people in corporate doesn't know or understand coupons.
I swear their should be a minimum of $0.50 for any coupon not the $0.25/1 Angel Soft coupon?
I really miss these CVS deals. No deals here in Germany. I cringe at the prices I have to pay now. :( I 'm so far away from the states but I still get coupons from WEIS and CVS. They sent them to my APO , I don't know how they found me haha! Too bad I can't use them. :(

Softball Ends Season With a 3-1 Setback To Lake Erie
The Bobcats' season comes to a close with a 24-18 overall record. LEC is 25-14-1 overall after suffering a 1-0 loss in eight innings to No. 2 seeded Pitt-Bradford in the second game of the tournament this afternoon.
The Storm advance to the loser's bracket championship game and will face the loser of No. 1 seed Penn State Behrend/No. 2 seed Pitt-Bradford tomorrow afternoon at 12:30 pm.
LEC broke a 1-1 tie with a pair of runs in the bottom of the fourth to earn the victory and advance to day two of the tournament.
The Storm captured a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning when Ashley Johnson led off the game with a solo homerun. Three innings later, the Bobcats tied the game when senior Bethany Seyler (Walkersville, Md./Walkersville) led off the inning with a single and eventually scored on an error.
In the bottom of the fourth, LEC took a 3-1 lead on RBIs from Jen Dodge and Shaina Vanderpool. Both teams combined for just three hits the rest of the way as the game ended.
Senior pitcher Jen Cook (Cresaptown, Md./Allegany) tossed 6.0 innings allowing three runs on six hits while striking out five. Sarah Miller earned the win for Lake Erie after tossing a complete game allowing one run on three hits.
Seyler and freshmen Kaitlyn Wagner (Leesburg, Va./Loudoun County) and Lydia Ratliff (Brandywine, Md./Grace Brethern) each had a hit for FSU in the loss.
In the first game of the afternoon, the Bobcats lost to host Penn State Behrend, 3-0.
The Lions (32-7) broke open a scoreless game in the fourth inning with a two-run double from Lindsay Baughman. PSB added a third run in the sixth to take a 3-0 lead.
The Bobcats (24-17) struggled, managing just two hits during the contest.
Senior starter Cook pitched 6.0 innings allowing three runs, two earned, on seven hits while striking out six.

Put one tip on a motor lead and touch the second and then the third lead, readings should be low, steady, and the same. Move the first probe to the second lead and touch the first and second motor lead, again readings should be low, steady, and the same. Some time if you wait a few seconds the reading will drop and stabilize lower than the initial reading. But all should read only one or two 1/10ths of an Ohm higher than the shorted together probes. You would need a milliOhm meter to measure the actual resistance in a winding because it is so low. Those are a very expensive type of meter and very few of us have one because of the cost. Some meters display OL or open line when there is no resistance. A reading of 0.0 Ohms is normally a dead short with no resistance (not an open line). So if, as you said earlier, if you read 0.00 Ohms resistance between the stator body (one probe on a bare spot on the stator) and a motor lead (the second probe on the ESC connector) you are seeing a lead that is shorted to the stator. And that is a bad thing, as all windings should be open to the stator (not shorted). Quote:
On the average, I do all of those checks numerous times in the course of winding and terminating a motor. Jack |

I appreciate all the input and apologize, for not being clear what was I asking about. The 0.00 Ohm measurement was to say, that there are NO shorts ( continuity) to the stator or any other wires. I am pretty happy about it, you know scraping the epoxy...
My question was about NOT having the phases in right order ( I did two in clockwise order to the right of each other and one to the left side of the first two) That is why the wires did not ended next to each other. Yes, the wraps are all wound clockwise or you may say correct. If you look on the photos, maybe it is more clear what I am trying to say. So I am wondering if this will work the way it is, if I connect/solder the E1, E2, E3 wires together and terminate the S1 S2 S3. I wish I could describe it better. Probably not using the correct terms yet. Sorry! |
0.00Siemens it is then.
Vriendelijke groeten Ron • diy motor tips • Drive Calculator • • diy motor group • Cumulus MFC • |
Maybe it will help you if you compare what you have to the attached image. As I see it, it looks to me as if it would not change anything as far as the locations of the ends if the last phase was started on #3 and ended on #12 or started on #12 and ended on #3. So I don't understand why your ends come out differently. The ends would still be in the same place even though they were swapped in doing the wind. But you would want to think of the ends as being marked S3 and E3 as per the image for doing the termination. The second image shows the termination you intend to do and it looks to be right to me too. The images I posted may show the turns as opposite to what you have but as long as they are all done the same way on all arms it is OK. So if you decide it all looks OK it comes down to giving it a test. When I do that, I just give the throttle one or two clicks open and shut it immediately. If it is right the motor will run and stop. If it does not run or if it stutters do not keep trying or you run the risk of damaging the ESC. Then if you give it two or three starts, a little longer every time, stopping and checking each arm for heat, you'll soon know if you have a good wind or not. I think I've read that it is possible that a motor will run with a reversed wind but that that will cause the reversed arm to overheat and burn up pretty quickly. So that is why you want to sneak up on testing with more throttle and longer tests. Jack |

Back OT, nice wind evz. I usually go the other direction because it helps keep those transit wires more out of the way, but your method should result in a lower Rm (less transit wire). Anyhow, sounds like you're ready to terminate and test? The EEE bun, SSS terminals if you will, should result in a properly terminated Y. The fact that you wound backwards will only change the direction of rotation; doesn't matter as far as performance. Kev |
You worked fire there huh? My respect and regards! Good on you.

Motor will not run
I have no idea what I did wrong.
I rewind 2730-1500 13T 24 newbie wire,Wye ABC...just like the first one (still running motor) I was pretty proud of it and had high expectations. Well it just rattles, with a prop or without. No shorted wires to the stator. My Ohm meter shows -0.26 when I test the individual terminated wires. Hopefully, I will not start another Ohm discussion. Did I "overstuffed"it? |
You cannot 'over stuff it'. More copper is better, as long as it gets you the KV you are after.
Back to basics: You do have a short you missed. You wound wrong, You terminated wrong. You have a bad solder joint. It really is pretty much that simple. Unfortunately it's also that complex. |
The orginal wind was DLRK I think, not ABC. And the ABC wind will not work on 12N14P motors, only on 8P and 16P motors.
What did you use for a winding diagram? This page will generate a good winding diagram for you if you don't have one: http://www.powerditto.de/bewicklungsrechner.html Jack |

Anyone been to Tallinn?
- 6 Comments
- Follow
I'm spending a few days in Estonia and wondering if anyone had recommendations for dinner in Tallinn. We won't be renting a car, so nothing outside the city or too far off the beaten path. Also, English-speaking staff would be nice since my Estonian isn't quite up to par.
Other than that - it can be any type of food, any price range...as long as it's good!
Go to Raekoja plats, which is the main townhall square, and shout for Karl Friedrich till someone points you to the restaurant.
Or go to this website ;-)
Old student of Bagatelle
I had some awesome vanilla ice cream there with black pepper and olive oil, amazing stuff. which was about 6 years ago.
They have some nice german and austrian wine too.

re: Strauss
Thank you very much for the recommendation, though I'm not sure I'm up for the reindeer liver - I will, however, urge my husband to order it.
I would recommend indian restaurant "Elevant" in old town. waitresses speaks fluent english and the atmosphere in nice and calm.
for more estonian/scandinavian menu go to "Sfäär"
Cosy Italian You'll find from "Controvento"
re: Eskimolapsi
Thank you very much!
re: Pixy
May be too late now...but just been and a) avoid Old Haus apart from a novelty drink (though the hot nuts outside are good!) and b) try Gloria. Not the Grand Russian Belle Epoque restaurant upstairs, but rather the secret wine bar downstairs. You enter through a wine shop, where you can buy your wines for the evening, and then there are winding passages into the Gloria restaurant's wine cellars. There are a series of rooms, all beautiful, very evocative, feels undiscovered, roaring fire (though we were still chilly!) The food was 'fine' - we shared some charcuterie and smoked and pickled fish, then filet mignon for some, choucroute for others...but the wine and the place itself made the night.

Advocates for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) youth have heard those stories too. "What we see is a pattern of homophobia at Covenant House, both on the part of other residents and on the part of the staff," says Kate Barnhart, manager of a shelter for LGBT kids. "We see staff members behaving in ways that are directly homophobic themselves, and we see staff members failing to intervene to stop homophobia among the other residents."
It's a complaint that's now penetrating city politics. A group of councilmembers led by Lewis Fidler and Alan Gerson is pushing to add $2.5 million to next year's budget to pay for dozens of new shelter beds for homeless kids. And as LGBT advocates press for that money, they are also highlighting the problems they see at Covenant House.
"Stonewall decided to try to make this a major issue in the mayoral race this year," says the gay Democratic group's leader, Dirk McCall. At mayoral-candidate forums this year, Stonewall will have "people in the audience who are primed to ask the question" about services for street kids.
It's unclear how many kids are homeless in New York City, but they may be disproportionately LGBT, because those kids are especially likely to run into trouble at home as they come to terms with their sexual identity. An article published in the Journal of Adolescent Health pegs the LGBT share of street kids at 25 to 40 percent. Yet the only city-funded emergency youth shelter is the one on West 41st Street run by Covenant House, which has $3.3 million in contracts with the city for shelters and the services provided in them. Covenant House, which operates in other cities and countries, calls itself the largest private child-care agency in the U.S.
Advocates want the new money to go to other private agencies, because, they say, Covenant House's structure and religious background deprive LGBT kids of the help they need. The biggest problem, critics say, is the sheer size of the Covenant House shelter and its high client-to-staff ratio. "Those staff ratios make it impossible for staff to protect young people who are targeted," the Urban Justice Center's Kim Hawkins tells the Voice.
Because of the size of the shelterthe 41st Street site has 97 bedsit's not an easy place to work, and there's a lot of turnover, critics say. "There's a prison mentality that gets set up there," says former Covenant House intern Eric Hartman, who now interns for the Ali Forney Center, one of several alternative shelters that do not get city funding.
Charlene Artis knows what it's like to be outnumbered. A Staten Island native, she was an 18-year-old bisexual boy when she spent a night at Covenant House in spring 2001. The staff seemed OK with her being gay, but the other residents weren't. "The verbal abuse was horrendous," Charlene recalls. "They wrapped batteries in a sock, actually, and hit me upside the head." Charlene says that when she complained to staff she was told, "There's nothing we can do." One night two years later, Charlene returned to Covenant House as a transgender person. Her fellow residents made her sleep on the floor.
When Rebecca Waltonthen a transgender 18-year-oldarrived in late 2000, the staff psychologist refused to call her by her girl name, and the job counselor mocked her feminine appearance. The other residents cornered her, robbed her, and threw things at her while she slept. "All these acts of violence, the staff really ignored it," she claims. Yet she stayed for about six months. "Couldn't think of anywhere else to go," she says. Eventually she returned to the streets, and now, like Charlene Artis, lives in a residence run by the Ali Forney Center.
Covenant House staff does take steps to protect kids, but sometimes they are halting ones. Sadaisha Shimmers, who is transgender, says she spent a month in Covenant House about six months ago. Things went well at firststaff allowed her to live on a female floor, and when slurs and threats began, they moved her to a different room. But the threats continued, Shimmers says, and when a staff member joined in, Shimmers vowed to file a grievance. The staff member then discharged her for making a threat, Shimmers claims.
The Forney center, named after a gay teen murdered in 1997, operates two six-bed shelters. The small scale means clients get personal attention, but it also means a 100-person waiting list, says founder-director Carl Siciliano. At Covenant House, Hartman says, "the advantage is, I never saw someone turned away from a bed." Some advocates fault the city for creating the group's singular role in the youth shelter business. "Unfortunately," says Patrick Markee of Coalition for the Homeless, "historically the city has chosen to fund warehouse-style shelter facilities with one-size-fits-all services that don't meet the needs of many homeless youth, particularly LGBT homeless youth."

dc.description.abstract | This paper aims at examining how firms create and capture value with open source software (OSS). OSS is seen as an excellent exemplar of both peer production and open innovation. Nevertheless, the use of OSS as a form of open innovation is such a recent phenomenon that many unanswered questions still persist. The very concept of OSS represents phenomena that require firms to rethink their strategy as the shift in focus from ownership to one of openness requires a reconsideration of the processes that generate value creation and capture. In responding to this research gap, this paper begins a theory building process for examining OSS value creation and capture. In particular, various theoretical frameworks employed for value creation and capture are explored. The findings of this analysis reveal the importance of a value network for value creation and capture with OSS and the paper concludes by using theoretical propositions to illustrate relationships. | en |

Not since the mail crisis of the 1960s, when the Chicago Post Office ground to a halt and citizens lost confidence in the mail, has the fate of the nation's postal system captured the attention of the American public. That crisis 40 years ago provided the impetus for Congress, the administration, and postal management to work toward a massive overhaul of a system steeped in neglect and patronage.

The Waratahs did not release any details about the alleged breach but the 31-year-old's manager Greg Keenan said in a statement released to The Sunday Telegraph that Sailor had provided a positive sample to a drugs test.
"Wendell Sailor has been notified by the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority that part A of a sample he provided recently has returned positive to a banned substance," said Keenan.
"The ARU has also been notified by the agency, and the ARU and NSWRU have consequently stood Wendell down from playing duties.
"We have approached the Rugby Union Players' Association to request legal advice. At this stage, Wendell has no comment to make."

Queue Based Printers no longer servicing Queues after upgrade to eDirectory 8.7

Novell eDirectory 8.7 for NetWare 5.1

Novell Queue Based Printing
Queue Based Printers no longer servicing Queues after upgrade to eDirectory 8.7

Queue based printing no longer appears to work on servers upgraded to eDirectory 8.7
Printers not working after NetWare or eDirectory update.
After upgrading to eDirectory 8.7, some customers have reported that bindery Print Servers were no longer servicing their queues. The cause of this is that the firmware on the printers could not handle the amount of data being returned from the Get Server Address request. eDirectory 8.7.x has introduced new features that require additional address to be stored in the netwwork address attribute that is used by the Get Server Address request. New features such as eMBox and iMonitor create several URL addresses in the Network Address field for the servers. When the Print servers authenticates, a create service connection request is made that begins the authentication process by performing a Get Server Address request. Most printers have a hardcoded buffer size for the server address. If the firmware on the printer has a smaller buffer size allocated than the actual size that is sent, the authentication will fail.
There are no current plans to remedy this from eDirectory. The reason for this would be that the only way to fix this would be to eliminate new features that require additional addresses. Therefore, the fix for this is issue is to upgrade the firmware for the printers if it is available for that printer. Most printer companies have published newer firmware versions that will handle the additional buffer size. Contact your printer firmware provider for more information on how to obtain the firmware.
If newer firmware is not available, the administrator can disable eDirectory features and or other referrals to decrease the size of the referral list. Below are some ways to reduce the referral size. The recommendation is to execute the following in order, testing printing after each step. If printing starts to work, additional actions are not necessary. 4. Unload NDSimon, Portal and httstk. This will obviously disable Novell Remote Manager and NDS iMonitor but will also eliminate adddress out of the network address attribute.
The above workarounds will eliminate addresses out of the referral list. However, the affect may not be immediate. To speed up to process of removing the addresses, run a dstrace with a *l (i.e. set dstrace=*l) to trigger a limber which will modify the network address attribute.
Known Printers with firmware issues: Lexmark. Problem is fixed with Lexmark firmware dated July 14, 2003 or later. Xerox (firmware version unknown at this point) Jet-Direct - Anything older than version 8.40 will probably have the issue.

Alcohol withdrawal syndrome is a set of symptoms that can occur when an individual reduces or stops alcoholic consumption after long periods of use. Prolonged and excessive use of alcohol leads to tolerance and physical dependence. The withdrawal syndrome is largely a hyper-excitable response of the central nervous system to lack of alcohol. Symptoms typical of withdrawal include agitation, seizures, and delirium tremens.[1]
Sedative-hypnotics, such as alcohol, are well known for their propensity to induce physiological dependence. This dependence is due to alcohol-induced neuro-adaptation. Withdrawal is characterized by neuropsychiatric excitability and autonomic disturbances. Dependence on other sedative-hypnotics can increase the severity of the withdrawal syndrome.[2]
Signs and symptoms[edit]
Signs and symptoms of alcohol withdrawal occur primarily in the central nervous system. The severity of withdrawal can vary from mild symptoms such as sleep disturbances and anxiety to severe and life-threatening symptoms such as delirium, hallucinations, and autonomic instability.
Withdrawal usually begins 6 to 24 hours after the last drink.[3] It can last for up to one week.[4] To be classified as alcohol withdrawal syndrome, patients must exhibit at least two of the following symptoms: increased hand tremor, insomnia, nausea or vomiting, transient hallucinations (auditory, visual or tactile), psychomotor agitation, anxiety, tonic-clonic seizures, and autonomic instability.[5]
The severity of symptoms is dictated by a number of factors, the most important of which is degree of alcohol intake, length of time the individual has been using alcohol, and previous history of alcohol withdrawal.[5] Symptoms are also grouped together and classified:
- Alcohol hallucinosis: patients have transient visual, auditory, or tactile hallucinations, but are otherwise clear.[5]
- Withdrawal seizures: seizures occur within 48 hours of alcohol cessations and occur either as a single generalized tonic-clonic seizure or as a brief episode of multiple seizures.[6]
- Delirium tremens: hyperadrenergic state, disorientation, tremors, diaphoresis, impaired attention/consciousness, and visual and auditory hallucinations.[5] This usually occurs 24 to 72 hours after alcohol cessation. Delirium tremens is the most severe form of withdrawal and occurs in 5 to 20% of patients experiencing detoxification and 1/3 of patients experiencing withdrawal seizures.[6]
Typically the severity of the symptoms experienced will depend on the amount and duration of prior alcohol consumption, as well as the number and severity of previous withdrawals. Even the most severe of these symptoms can occur in as little as 2 hours after cessation; therefore, the overall unpredictability necessitates either pre-planned hospitalization, treatment coordinated with a doctor, or at the very least rapid access to medical care; and a supporting system of friends or family should be introduced prior to addressing detoxification. In many cases, however, symptoms follow a reasonably predictable time frame as exampled below:[citation needed]
Six to 12 hours after the ingestion of the last drink, withdrawal symptoms such as shaking, headache, sweating, anxiety, nausea or vomiting occur. Other comparable symptoms may also exist in this period. Twelve to 24 hours after cessation, the condition may progress to such major symptoms as confusion, hallucinations (with awareness of reality), tremor, agitation, and similar ailments.
At 24 to 48 hours following the last ethanol ingestion, the possibility of seizures should be anticipated. Meanwhile, none of the earlier withdrawal symptoms will have abated. Seizures carry the risk of death for the alcoholic.
Although most often, the patient's condition begins to improve past the 48-hour mark, it can sometimes continue to increase in severity to delirium tremens, characterized by hallucinations that are indistinguishable from reality, severe confusion, more seizures, high blood pressure and fever which can persist anywhere from 4 to 12 days.
Protracted withdrawal[edit]
A protracted alcohol withdrawal syndrome occurs in many alcoholics where withdrawal symptoms continue beyond the acute withdrawal stage but usually at a subacute level of intensity and gradually decreasing with severity over time. This syndrome is also sometimes referred to as the post acute withdrawal syndrome. Some withdrawal symptoms can linger for at least a year after discontinuation of alcohol. Symptoms can include a craving for alcohol, inability to feel pleasure from normally pleasurable things (also known as anhedonia), clouding of sensorium, disorientation, nausea and vomiting or headache.[7] Insomnia is also a common protracted withdrawal symptom which persists after the acute withdrawal phase of alcohol. Insomnia has also been found to influence relapse rate. Studies have found that magnesium or trazodone can help treat the persisting withdrawal symptom of insomnia in recovering alcoholics. Insomnia can be difficult to treat in alcoholics because many of the traditional sleep aids (e.g. benzodiazepine receptor agonists and barbiturate receptor agonists) work via a GABAA receptor mechanism and are cross tolerant with alcohol. However, trazodone is not cross tolerant with alcohol.[8][9][10] The acute phase of the alcohol withdrawal syndrome can also occasionally be protracted. Protracted delirium tremens has been reported in the medical literature as a possible but unusual feature of alcohol withdrawal.[11]
Chronic use of alcohol leads to changes in brain chemistry especially in the GABAergic system. Various adaptations occur such as changes in gene expression and down regulation of GABAA receptors. During acute alcohol withdrawal, changes also occur such as upregulation of alpha4 containing GABAA receptors and down regulation of alpha1 and alpha3 containing GABAA receptors. Neurochemical changes occurring during alcohol withdrawal can be minimized with drugs which are used for acute detoxification. With abstinence from alcohol and cross tolerant drugs these changes in neurochemistry gradually return towards normal.[12][13] Adaptations to the NMDA system also occur as a result of repeated alcohol intoxication and are involved in the hyper-excitability of the central nervous system during the alcohol withdrawal syndrome. Homocysteine levels which are elevated during chronic drinking increase even further during the withdrawal state and may result in excito-neurotoxicity. Alterations in ECG, in particular an increase in QT interval, and EEG abnormalities including may occur during early withdrawal.[14] Dysfunction of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis and increased release of corticotropin-releasing hormone occur during both acute as well as protracted abstinence from alcohol and contribute to both acute and protracted withdrawal symptoms. Anhedonia/dysphoria symptoms, which can persist as part of a protracted withdrawal may be due to dopamine underactivity.[15]
Kindling is a phenomenon where repeated alcohol detoxifications leads to an increased severity of the withdrawal syndrome. For example, binge drinkers may initially experience no withdrawal symptoms, but with each period of alcohol use followed by cessation, their withdrawal symptoms intensify in severity and may eventually result in full blown delirium tremens with convulsive seizures. Alcoholics who experience seizures during detoxification are more likely to have had previous episodes of alcohol detoxification than patients who did not have seizures during withdrawal. In addition, patients with previous withdrawal syndromes are more likely to have more medically complicated alcohol withdrawal symptoms.
Kindling can cause complications and may increase the risk of relapse, alcohol-related brain damage and cognitive deficits. Chronic alcohol misuse and kindling via multiple alcohol withdrawals may lead to permanent alterations in the GABAA receptors.[16] The mechanism behind kindling is sensitization of some neuronal systems and desensitization of other neuronal systems which leads to increasingly gross neurochemical imbalances. This in turn leads to more profound withdrawal symptoms including anxiety, convulsions and neurotoxicity.[17]
Binge drinking is associated with increased impulsivity, impairments in spatial working memory and impaired emotional learning. These adverse effects are believed to be due to the neurotoxic effects of repeated withdrawal from alcohol on aberrant neuronal plasticity and cortical damage. Repeated periods of acute intoxication followed by acute detoxification has profound effects on the brain and is associated with an increased risk of seizures as well as cognitive deficits. The effects on the brain are similar to those seen in alcoholics who have been detoxified multiple times but not as severe as in alcoholics who have no history of prior detox. Thus the acute withdrawal syndrome appears to be the most important factor in causing damage or impairment to brain function. The brain regions most sensitive to harm from binge drinking are the amygdala and prefrontal cortex.[18]
People in adolescence who experience multiple withdrawals from binge drinking show impairments of long-term nonverbal memory. Alcoholics who have had two or more alcohol withdrawals show more frontal lobe cognitive dysfunction than alcoholics who have experienced one or no prior withdrawals. Kindling of neurons is the proposed cause of withdrawal related cognitive damage. Kindling from multiple withdrawals leads to accumulating neuroadaptational changes. Kindling may also be the reason for cognitive damage seen in binge drinkers.[19]
Many hospitals use the Clinical Institute Withdrawal Assessment for Alcohol (CIWA) protocol in order to assess the level of withdrawal present and therefore the amount medication needed.[5] When overuse of alcohol is suspected but drinking history is unclear, testing for elevated values of carbohydrate-deficient transferrin and/or gammaglutamyl transferase can help make the diagnosis of alcohol overuse and dependence more clear.
Benzodiazepines are effective for the management of symptoms as well as the prevention of seizures.[20] Certain vitamins are also an important part of the management of alcohol withdrawal syndrome. In those with severe symptoms inpatient care is often required.[3] In those with lesser symptoms treatment at home may be possible with daily visits with a health care provider.[3]
Benzodiazepines are the most commonly used medication for the treatment of alcohol withdrawal and are generally safe and effective in suppressing symptoms of alcohol withdrawal.[21] This class of medications are generally effective in symptoms control, but need to be used carefully. Although benzodiazepines have a long history of successfully treating and preventing withdrawal, there is no consensus on the ideal one to use. The most commonly used agents are long-acting benzodiazepines, such as chlordiazepoxide and diazepam. These are believed to be superior to other benzodiazepines for treatment of delirium and allow for longer periods between dosing. However, benzodiazepines with intermediate half-lives like lorazepam may be safer in people with liver problems.[4]
The primary debate between use of long-acting benzodiazepines and short-acting is that of ease of use. Longer-acting drugs, such as diazepam, can be dosed less frequently. However, evidence does exist that "symptom-triggered regimens" such as those used when treating with lorazepam, are as safe and effective, but have decreased treatment durations and medication quantity used.[4]
Although benzodiazepines are very effective at treating alcohol withdrawal, they should be carefully used. Benzodiazepines should only be used for brief periods in alcoholics who are not already dependent on them, as they share cross tolerance with alcohol. There is a risk of replacing an alcohol addiction with benzodiazepine dependence or adding another addiction. Furthermore, disrupted GABA benzodiazepine receptor function is part of alcohol dependence and chronic benzodiazepines may prevent full recovery from alcohol induced mental effects.[22][23] The combination of benzodiazepines and alcohol can amplify the adverse psychological effects of each other causing enhanced depressive effects on mood and increase suicidal actions and are generally contraindicated except for alcohol withdrawal.[24]
The prophylactic administration of thiamine, folate and pyridoxine intravenously is recommended before starting any carbohydrate containing fluids or food. Alcoholics are often deficient in various nutrients which can cause severe complications during alcohol withdrawal such as the development of Wernicke syndrome. The vitamins of most importance in alcohol withdrawal are thiamine and folic acid. To help to prevent Wernicke syndrome alcoholics should be administered a multivitamin preparation with sufficient quantities of thiamine and folic acid. Vitamins should always be administered before any glucose is administered otherwise Wernicke syndrome can be precipitated.[25] These vitamins are often combined into banana bag which is given intravenously to patients.
Some evidence indicates that topiramate[14] carbamazepine and other anticonvulsants are effective in the treatment of alcohol withdrawal however, research is limited.[14][26] A Cochrane review similarly reported that the evidence to support the role of anticonvulsants over benzodiazepines in the treatment of alcohol withdrawal is not significant and noted weaknesses in the studies available. The Cochrane review did note however, that paraldehyde combined with chloral hydrate showed superiority over chlordiazepoxide with regard to life-threatening side effects and also noted that carbamazapine may have advantages for certain symptoms.[27]
Clonidine may be used in combination with benzodiazepines to help some of the symptoms.[5] There is insufficient evidence to support the use of baclofen for AWS.[28]
Antipsychotics, such as haloperidol, are sometimes in addition to benzodiazepines to control agitation or psychosis.[5] Antipsychotics may potentially worsen alcohol withdrawal as they lower the seizure threshold. Clozapine, olanzapine or low potency phenothiazines(e.g. chlorpromazine) are particularly risky; if used, extreme caution is required.[29]
While intravenous ethanol could theoretically be used, evidence to support this use, at least in those who are very sick is insufficient.[30]
Failure to manage the alcohol withdrawal syndrome appropriately can lead to permanent brain damage or death.[31] It has been proposed that brain damage due to alcohol withdrawal may be prevented by the administration of NMDA antagonists, calcium antagonists, and glucocorticoid antagonists.[32] The NMDA antagonist acamprosate reduces excessive glutamate rebound thereby suppressing excitotoxicity and potential withdrawal-related neurotoxicity.[33]
Substances impairing recovery[edit]
Continued use of benzodiazepines may impair recovery from psychomotor and cognitive impairments from alcohol.[34] Cigarette smoking may slow down or interfere with recovery of brain pathways in recovering alcoholics.[35]

Dallas' Perot Museum of Nature and Science sets a high bar for a new generation of museums.
"I never approached it as a beautiful object," says famed architect Thom Mayne. "If people like it or don't like it stylistically, well, I can't please everybody. I'm much more interested in making something compelling and interesting."
That's just what Mayne and his California-?based firm, Morphosis Architects, have done — triumphantly and unforgettably — with the design of the new Perot Museum of Nature and Science slated to open Dec. 1 near downtown Dallas.
Designed as a large cube floating over a landscaped base, the 180,000-square-foot museum, wrapped in concrete panels that recall a limestone stream bed, includes its own 1-acre science park; an urban plaza; five floors of public space; six learning labs; a glass-enclosed, tubelike escalator that extends up the building's exterior; and 11 permanent exhibition halls crowded with ingenious interactive features such as an earthquake simulator and the Shale ?Voyager, in which visitors "shrink" to microscopic size and go on a virtual exploration for natural gas.
Mayne's startling creation has received worldwide press attention, in part due to the heavyweight reputation of Mayne himself, who in 2005 won the Pritzker Architecture Prize — architecture's equivalent of an ?Oscar and/or the Nobel Prize. The ?Pritzker jury of experts referred to Mayne as "a product of the turbulent '60s who has carried that rebellious attitude and fervent desire for change into his practice."
THE PEROT MUSEUM OF NATURE AND SCIENCE is located a mere 25 minutes from the Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport. For more information,
visit www.perotmuseum.org
Perot is also a high-tech pioneer who made his fortune with companies like Electronic Data Systems and Perot Systems. He once invested $20 million in Steve Jobs' NeXT Computer, and he's long been a passionate advocate for better education in the so-called STEM courses — science, technology, engineering and math. That's why his five children, including Ross Perot Jr., former owner of the NBA's Dallas Mavericks, donated $50 million to the museum effort in 2008.

Factory Sterling 10.5 limited slip question
Is the 10.5" sterling limited slip any better functioning than the trash lock we all cherish and love (to throw in the trash?) PNP has a couple of these units, I was thinking of grabbing one from a truck that looks the least burned to the ground (christ, they have a great deal of late model stuff too, all burned to the ground)
The end installation will be in my 4 door Bronco, used for towing, and the occasional "crap I am stuck" moments. Their prices seem outrageous for a few things, If I dont separate the ring gear, its going to cost me another $40!!! The pinion is another $40. the entire axle housing is only $120!! Shit, its cheaper to buy the entire housing. :/ |

Depends what your doing with it. I am sure it would be ok for a weekend warrior kinda rig, I just welded my posi up hehe. Pretty much if you want something off an axle, you should just buy the entire thing at the yard

Eh, straight from the factory it should be called and un-limited slip. Mine never gave good traction unless I was in really soft stuff i.e. sand or slippery as snot mud.
I've had to work the brake to get the LS to lock up to get me out of precarious situations, like the time I got high-centered on a small berm with both my front tires just kissing the ground. I got out, but I sat there spinning and hopping a good 5 minutes trying to get the LS to lock and drag me off. NOW, that being said, when I changed my gear oil, I went straight Mobil 1 without adding any of the factory LS additive and that sucker LOCKED everywhere. I'd feel the ass end of my truck skipping and shuddering around turns and never had any 'o-shit' moments...but then again I chalked the last one up to my superior off-hwy driving ability. If I were to do it again...I'd skip it and just get a REAL locker.

I am talking about a superduty, 98 and up limited no-go. Is there any difference in the way its put together, or how well it will or wont hold up in relation to the 10.25. Somebody once told me it was a bias type unit. The old style were not. I don't want a locker, this truck see's more towing duties than wheeling adventures. I dont want the unpredictability of a non selectable locker, or having the rear end locked up in a turn.

your factor lsd should work fine with what your doing but to have a locker that can work as a ls then go to lock at your needs that might be the best set up around cant recall where I hear it or who makes it.
