Wow thanks to all for a informative set of links and info.
Looking at the pictures i am convinced that she was taken from an e29 as the hull shape is identical. There is no e29 on the moulding as we have the moulds themselves and i have looked.
We dont quite know what to do with the moulds. Maybe when she is finished and looking like the one in the photos someone will want to build one themselves
Anyway thanks a lot and i am trying to get to Poole this weekend to have a look for myself.
Thanks again i no longer feel as though i am stumbling in the dark.

People Everywhere
If you are planning on a trip to Whistler be aware that if there is any kind of holiday or school break during that time, the mountain will be extremely busy. On these weekends you may find that the crowds are more sparse on the back sides of the mountains.
Unique Suggestions: Lift lines are typically not tremendously bad since there are 38 different lifts but picking one that isn't as busy will make your experience more enjoyable.
Fun Alternatives: Blackcomb seemed to me to be a little less busy than Whistler. You will be able to tell very quickly when you depart in the morning. The lines at the Gondola's will be a good indicator as to what mountain is being more heavily used.
- Skiing and Boarding
Pricey Shops
Many shops in the Whistler Village sell the same or very similar merchandise. The prices are typically quite high and being an American the exchange rate gets pretty confusing. Knowing the exchange rate and setting limits will help to keep you from overspending.
Unique Suggestions: For any merchandise that catches your eye, if you are not in a hurry, look at other stores and make sure you are getting the best price. Sometimes the same shirt or coat will be much cheaper just across the street. Also keep your eyes open for sales and phoney sales. Some claim huge savings and are still more expensive than other stores.
Fun Alternatives: I would suggest not buying any sporting merchandise in Whistler. You will be able to find it less expensive in many other places near you.
- Skiing and Boarding
- School Holidays
something to think about
I met up with this chick while snowboarding down the hill, apparently she works for the whistler tourists group. she mentioned it would be cheaper for ppl to NOT reserve the hotels in advance. i paid 300$ for the hotels (2 nights), and she said it would only cost 100-150ish had i just show up asking for accomodations.
Unique Suggestions: double check for the price, you never know what kind of deal you might be getting...

With its cross-LatAm credentials firmly in place, the firm formerly known as Celfin is keen to grow its investment banking reach
Boasting a strong debt capital markets franchise, and a
leading equity capital markets one, BTG Pactual Chile stands
out among Chilean investment banks. In the debt market, the
bank faces a strong rival in Banchile-Citi. But
BTG's broader scope gives it an edge in this
category. The bank has worked on a number of important deals
recently in the Chilean market, including an impressive share
auction for Chile's Enersis in April, as part of
the energy holding company's $6 billion equity
capital increase. It also worked on a $620 million-equivalent
equity capital raise for Corpbanca in February, as well as
deals for regional IT provider...

This letter was addressed to reviewer Susan Blood.
Having served on the Council Appointments Committee at various times in my tenure, I am writing to provide my perspective on some comments made at the 6/21 Council meeting regarding that Committee.
I am a parent that was a member of the ad-hoc committee whose purpose was to collect data on multiage classrooms and the multiage classroom at Barnstable Community Horace Mann Charter Public School and present the findings to the steering committee.
I chuckled when I read the letter entitled "Bully Pulpit" [June 8, 2012] from former Prudential Committee Chairman King Lowe.
In his letter to the editor entitled "The bully pulpit," Mr. King Lowe stated the following: "expressed support of a candidate for elective office by an elected official in the same jurisdiction is not frequently encountered."
If anyone in town thinks that anything has changed with our local elected officials who call themselves our "local government," please think again.
On June 4, the first annual James M. Dunn Scholarship was presented to a graduating senior at Barnstable High School: Fallon Rice of Marstons Mills.
As a member of the department of mental health advisory board, I must voice my opinion that too many cuts have been made in the DMH budget.
Today's world of sound bytes and YouTube news clips present obstacles for those attempting to convey a cogent and coherent message, particularly if you are a public office holder.

With toppings this terrific, it's hard to limit yourself to just one slice. The Slightly Pesto—white pizza splashed with pesto, garlic, and diced tomatoes—is our fave, but thin, chewy crusts beneath fresh ingredients such as seafood or Italian sausage, and local monikers like the MGH (spinach, broccoli, and feta), make any slice at the Upper Crust a cut above.

I have discussed several opportunities on this blog for almost five years now and recommend this book: Multiple Streams of Income in The Gambia to proactive investors or people willing to relocate to live work and invest in The Gambia. I see several untapped opportunities awaiting retirees eying this emerging market full of undiscovered potentials. However, I will like to reiterate that for someone who want to re-locate, live, invest or work in this small but beautiful country, bounded by bio-diverse River Gambia, one needs ideas and creative mind and not necessarily lots of cash to live comfortably and smile to the bank always in The Gambia. Let us consider some few examples of investments you can start with only US$10,000 and retire comfortably in a few years' time below:
1. Refurbishing old cars and buses to new.
With an initial investment of US$500-1,500 an old car or commercial bus abandoned because of the inability of owner to repair or replaced faulty engine can be re-furbished and replaced with new engine and sprayed with new color and sold for between US$2,000-3,000. If on the average 20 cars or buses are refurbished then the investor can make average of US$50,000-60,000 annually on the initial working capital of US$10,000. Similarly, we have many other investment opportunities.
2. Real Estate
3. Day Care/Nursery School
4. Solar Energy Products
5. Packaged water and foods
6. Printing Press and corporate gifts
7. Entertainment Centers
8. Aquaculture and many more.
There are over 150 unique business opportunities with details of startup capital, markets, licensing required, where to site such businesses and anticipated profits highlighted in the book: Multiple Streams of Income in The Gambia. To get a copy send a mail to: email@example.com for details.

Creative Minds Foundation, a charitable, non-profit making organization has launched: "Bakau Entrepreneurship Programme for youths". This innovative project seeks to empower Bakau youths between the ages of 18-30 years in unique vocational skill training. These include Leadership Development Skills, Briquette and briquette stove making, red bricks production and organic compost manure and pellet fertilizer from animal waste. The skill training center located at Bakau Newtown, offers free training for Bakau youths, The Gambia, with additional micro-loan financing for successful applicants with good mastery of their respective chosen business enterprise.This project is funded by UN-Habitat. The major motivation by Creative Minds Foundation for sponsoring this project in Bakau is to alleviate poverty and impact knowledge of useful but unique vocational skills. The holistic approach of this intervention will solve many problems of environmental abuse using firewood and wood charcoal with a replacement of briquette fuel for cooking. Secondly, the cheap, stronger affordable and environmentally friendly red bricks will reduce the cost of urban housing. Lastly, the income generation potential of these enterprises is sustainable in Bakau.
The mission of Creative Minds Foundation is to render support to the people of The Gambia in the areas of skill training, industrial technological transfer, education and empowerment of youths to be economically independent. Creative Minds Foundation can be reached on +220-890-7274. In the words of the project coordinator, Ms Yetunde Awolesi, she opined thus: "Whatever you think in your mind is what you become. A creative mind thinks of new ways to solve the myriads of economic problems plaguing Africans today. Fortunately, at Creative Minds Foundation, we provide youths with economic solutions to change their circumstances positively and become true achievers"
Bakau youths are, therefore, encouraged to take the bull by the horns and be empowered for sustainable growth and development of their community today by joining this ongoing training and be self- employed using an interest free micro-loan finance offered after training by Creative Minds Foundation.

During the dog days of summer, Shelly Howard is hoping to attract visitors to downtown Duluth to see an outdoor exhibit of artistically painted dog sculptures.Howard, the managing partner of Duluth's Red Clay Theatre and Arts Center, is seeking permission from the city council to initiate a Dog Days of Duluth public art project and allow the dog sculptures to be placed on the Town Green, on sidewalks around City Hall and in front of downtown businesses. The sculptures would be displayed from July through September, remaining in place for this year's Duluth Fall Festival, Howard said. Howard, who also serves as secretary of Duluth's Downtown Development Authority, and Jennifer Freeman, who oversaw the mosaics in City Hall, are co-chairing a committee that was formed recently to organize the new project. Sponsored by Duluth businesses, the dog sculptures would be painted by local artists, Howard said. The project is similar to Cows on Parade in Chicago, the Sandy Springs Turtles and the lil' chickens of Marietta. Several dog breeds are being considered for the sculptures, including German shepherd, St. Bernard, golden Labrador, bulldog, greyhound, poodle and a reclining puppy, Howard said. Constructed of a sturdy foam-based product, the dog sculptures range in height from 2 to 4 feet depending on their pose. They would be placed on bases for display. The dog sculptures would "attract people downtown," Howard said, and would be auctioned off to raise funds for community improvements. Howard pitched the public art project to the Duluth Council at its Feb. 25 meeting. Councilwoman Marsha Anderson Bomar suggested that Howard coordinate the project and its dates with the city's Public Information and Marketing Department and bring her proposal back to the council. Mayor Nancy Harris said the Parks and Recreation Department should also be consulted since the sculptures would be placed in a city park. Howard said she is making these contacts and planning to appear before the council in March. "I envision this becoming an annual event with the mascot changing every year," Howard said.

Senate sides with Obama, defunds jet engine
WASHINGTON The Senate voted Thursday to eliminate spending on a jet engine program the defense secretary says is superfluous, moving in step with Obama administration assertions that it is time to stop spending military dollars on programs that are not needed.
The voice vote on an amendment to eliminate funds for a backup engine for the F-35 next-generation fighter plane came hours before the Senate completed a $680 billion bill that authorizes defense programs for the fiscal year starting in October. The defense bill passed 87-7.
Just two days ago, the Senate went along with Defense Secretary Robert Gates' campaign to change the way the Pentagon buys weapons by stripping from the bill $1.75 billion to produce more F-22 fighters, the high-tech aircraft that eventually will be supplanted by the F-35 as the military's main attack plane.
The White House has said that President Barack Obama would issue what would be the first veto of his presidency if the defense bill contained money for either new F-22s or the F-35 alternate engines.
In anticipation of an agreement with Russia later this year on reducing nuclear arsenals and replacing the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty, which expires in December, the Senate agreed that Congress would block spending to implement any new treaty that puts limitations on U.S. missile defense. Senators also demanded, in a voice vote, that the budget to maintain nuclear weapons and modernize the nuclear weapons complex be fully funded in fiscal 2011.
Whatever the negotiators eventually decide on, said Sen. Jon Kyl, sponsor of the amendment, "we need to start a process of modernizing our nuclear weapons program and stockpile."
The Russians have strongly objected to U.S. proposals to locate missile defense facilities in Poland and the Czech Republic to protect Europe from Iranian missile attacks, and have suggested that a nuclear weapons reduction agreement could hinge on the U.S. abandoning those proposals.
Separately, Sen. Joe Lieberman, I-Conn., won approval of a nonbinding amendment stating that it is imperative that the United States have an effective missile defense program and that the Senate would only support an alternative to the Poland-Czech plan that offers the same capabilities of defending both the United States and Europe.
The debate over the second F-35 engine has gone on for more than a decade. The Pentagon gave the contract for the engine to United Technologies Corp.'s subsidiary Pratt & Whitney. But lawmakers, some with jobs in their states at stake, have continued to push for development of a backup engine built by General Electric Co. and Rolls Royce. Some $2.5 billion has already been spent on the GE engine.
Both the F-22 and the F-35 are being built by the Lockheed Martin Corp.
On Tuesday, Gates wrote a letter to Senate leaders saying that "further expenditures on a second engine are unnecessary and will likely impede the progress of the overall F-35 program."
Lieberman argued that GE and its supporters were "trying to achieve through legislation what they could not achieve through competition."
The Pentagon in the coming decades plans to buy about 2,400 of the single-engine jet that would be used primarily to attack targets on the ground and would replace the F-16 and the Air Force's aging fleet of A-10s. Versions would also be produced for the Navy and Marine Corps as well as the Air Force, and about 600 would be built for foreign allies.

Justice Dept. sues Fla. over voter purge
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. The governor's contentious push to remove thousands of potentially ineligible voters from Florida's lists has been met with a lawsuit from the Justice Department and handled very differently by the state's independent election supervisors, many of whom questioned the accuracy of the effort.
Gov. Rick Scott initiated the push last year to identify and remove non-U.S. citizens.
The U.S. Department of Justice on Tuesday, as it had threatened, filed a federal lawsuit against the state calling on it halt the ongoing purge because it is within 90 days of a federal election. The Scott administration a day earlier filed its own lawsuit demanding access to a federal immigration database that it says could help identify non-U.S. citizens.
And a survey by The Associated Press shows that many of the counties have not been uniform in the way they have treated the registered voters initially identified by the state as ineligible. It's up to the state's 67 election supervisors - most of whom are elected - to ultimately decide whether to remove a voter from the rolls. Some suspended their efforts because of questions about the accuracy of the list and never even sent out letters to voters asking about their citizenship status.
The Justice lawsuit also questioned the list. It said it has "critical imperfections, which lead to errors that harm and confuse voters."
"The Department of Justice has an overriding interest in protecting the rights of eligible citizens to register and vote free from unlawful burdens," said Thomas Perez, assistant attorney general for the Department of Justice Civil Rights Division.
As for the election supervisors, two of them removed voters from the rolls only to reinstate them once the controversy over the state-created list erupted. Others have removed voters because the residents did not respond to certified letters asking them about their citizenship.
Scott - who went on national television Tuesday to defend Florida's actions so far - brushed aside any concerns that local election supervisors had not been uniform about how they have handled the list.
"I think they all care about doing their job the right way," Scott said at a ribbon cutting in Miami Lakes. "Every county is a little bit different, but I'm sure they're doing it the best way for their county."
Florida initially compared driver's license records with voter registration records and turned up as many as 182,000 registered voters who may not be U.S. citizens. But state officials did not release that list and instead sought access to a federal immigration database to verify the matches. That request so far has been turned down by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.
Earlier this year, state officials sent to local election officials a much smaller list of more than 2,600 voters and asked them to check the names. State officials contended that this list should be accurate because many of the people on it had told the state they only planned to be in the U.S. temporarily.
But many supervisors quickly began to question the accuracy of the names on the list and found errors.

Call (239) 275-7722
Pregnancy is an exciting time in a woman's life — but it can also generate a lot of questions about both the mother's and the baby's health. The realm of dental care is no exception.
Here are a few of the questions we frequently hear from expectant mothers, along with our answers.
Does the baby's tooth calcium come from my teeth?
This question is frequently asked by mothers who may have had dental issues and are worried they'll pass on these problems to their baby. Simply put, no — a baby developing in the womb derives minerals like calcium for their teeth and bones from the mother's diet, not her teeth. What an expectant mother can do is be sure to eat a healthy, balanced diet rich in nutrients and minerals like calcium.
Am I at heightened risk for dental disease during pregnancy?
Pregnancy does cause significant increases in your body's hormones, particularly estrogen. This can cause changes in the gum tissue's blood vessels that may make you more susceptible to periodontal (gum) disease (commonly called "pregnancy gingivitis"). It's also possible later in pregnancy to develop non-cancerous overgrowths of gum tissues called "pregnancy tumors." The heightened risk for gum disease during pregnancy calls for increased vigilance in monitoring gum health.
What should I do to take care of my teeth?
It's important to brush your teeth thoroughly twice a day with ADA-approved fluoridated toothpaste to remove plaque, a thin layer of bacteria and food remnants that adhere to teeth. You should also floss daily and consider using an anti-plaque/anti-gingivitis mouthrinse. And, of course, you should see us for regular office cleanings and checkups, or if you notice swollen, tender or bleeding gums, or other abnormalities.
Should I take prenatal fluoride supplements?
This sounds appealing as a way to give your baby a head start on strong tooth development. Studies on its effectiveness, however, remain slim and somewhat inconclusive — we simply don't have enough data to make a recommendation. What does have a solid research record is the application of fluoride to teeth in young children just after they appear in the mouth — studies involving over a thousand teeth have shown 99% cavity-free results using topical fluoride applications with sealants.
If you would like more information on dental care during pregnancy, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can also learn more about this topic by reading the Dear Doctor magazine article "Expectant Mothers."
Congratulations! In a few months, you're expecting a new baby... but, in the mean time, your body is adjusting to nausea, weight gain, food cravings, and a hundred other changes. Is this really the time to worry about your teeth and gums?
Yes and no — don't worry, but do be aware of a few basic facts about your oral health and your pregnancy, and how they affect each other.
Being pregnant may make your teeth and gums more sensitive. It also puts you at greater risk for some periodontal diseases, like pregnancy gingivitis ("gingival" – gum tissue; "itis" – inflammation of) and benign growths on the gum called "pregnancy tumors." You may think these problems are just uncomfortable, but you should really have them evaluated as soon as they develop. Why?
Once upon a time, it was believed that periodontal (gum) diseases just affected the mouth. Today, we think these diseases and their associated bacteria may be involved with the whole body, playing a role in cardiovascular ailments, heart attacks, strokes, diabetes, and other illnesses.
What's more, recent studies suggest that these oral bacteria may be able to cross the placenta, stimulating an inflammatory response that may lead to preterm delivery. Babies who are born pre-term often have low birth weight, and are at greater risk for a number of health complications. That's one reason why maintaining good oral health is so important to expectant moms.
So, what should you do? First of all, keep in mind that maintaining your own general and dental health is the best thing you can do for your developing baby. Eat a balanced diet, keep up healthy habits — like limiting sugary between-meal snacks and brushing regularly — and don't put off visiting your dentist to get your dental cleanings. Those cleanings and a thorough evaluation can set your mind at ease and give your baby the best chance at a healthy start.
If you would like more information about pregnancy and oral health, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can also learn more about this topic by reading the Dear Doctor magazine articles "Pregnancy and Oral Health," and "Expectant Mothers."
A pregnant woman has a lot to think about while preparing to welcome a new member of her family. It's important to think about her oral health as well. She is sharing her body with the developing infant, so problems with her health — including her dental health — can affect the baby. The following facts will help you understand the relationship between oral health and pregnancy.
Contact us today to schedule an appointment to discuss your questions about pregnancy and your oral health. You can also learn more by reading the Dear Doctor magazine article "Pregnancy and Oral Health."

Between Riverside and Crazy Bares Its Wounds
By Tom Sellar
I gave a slight shiver, partly from anticipation and partly from a gust of wind that caught my shoulder through the armhole of my buckskin vest. A cloudy vision sprang up before my eyes, a blurred memory of the aging rows of theaters that once faced each other on 42nd Street, before they were mostly mowed down to be replaced by the monstrous mall-like buildings that, we were puzzlingly told, would encourage tourism by making New York look exactly like every other modernizing city in the world. I wondered, standing in the grayish half-light, how many people had shared my dream of seeing all the street's old theaters relit and productive again.
Huddling under the eaves of the Disney store, I squinted north toward the Broadway theaters that still functioned. I tried to think how the thriving theater of 1910, the frenetically busy theater of 1928, the vivid and daring theater of 1950, had evolved into the mummified thing we have today, ceaselessly rechewing the most obvious icons of its own dead past. Today, even the rechewings were not Broadway's own they had to be shipped in from London, with an occasional specimen from L.A. or Chicago. Even worse, new American work of any merit found its path virtually blocked. Side Man had fought its way onto the big street, holding on for dear life and constantly applying Hollywood stars as box-office Band-Aids, but even a work as straightforward as Wit, with a great performance at its center, was not invited to make the leap. The chance then for a Chris Durang or Paul Rudnick to name only laugh-producing playwrights was even slimmer, while for a more somber risk-taker, a Neal Bell or Kia Corthron, it was close to nonexistent. Yet what could such playwrights say to shock and offend a Broadway where Patrick Marber and Martin McDonagh came and went quite casually? How could their language puzzles and structural dislocations perplex audiences that had sat quite patiently through Pinter and Mamet, Stoppard and Shepard? Granted, Broadway was all about money. But was it really cheaper to import from London than from 28th or 13th Street? It was about stars who sell tickets. But was it truly impossible to make the networks' most recently deaccessioned hunk learn a role that did not call for a hopelessly unconvincing accent? As I scratched the back of my neck, where the pigeon feather in my headband was irritating my scalp, it occurred to me, not for the first time, that something was wrong with the producers' thinking, a collective mental lapse that told them London was the source of all theatrical value. Maybe it was something in the water used to brew coffee at the League of American Theatres?
Or maybe it was simple snobbery. Theatrical producers are the most credulous and least knowledgeable of souls, and will believe anything alleged tastemakers tell them. Yet who could be feeding them such false information? The three real estate cartels that own most of the Broadway theaters, being interested only in money, all preferred a proven success to a risk. Yet why should they think a success more provable at the Donmar Warehouse than at Playwrights Horizons or Manhattan Class Company? New York theatergoers had always had their London favorites, but the two cities' tastes had always been widely different, and neither had successfully dictated to the other. Who, able to disentangle publicity from reality, would deny that England's and Ireland's first-rate artists were surrounded, like any country's first-raters, by throngs of mediocrities; now it seemed that Broadway actively pursued the latter. What else could motivate a season of still more ineffectuality and ineptitude from David Hare, Pam Gems, and Howard Davies, whose previous New York track records were of unmitigated disaster? What American resident theater, I wondered, would have blazoned on its brochure, "Thrilling new work by the authors of Stanley and Secret Rapture, and the director of Richard Chamberlain in My Fair Lady!"

Healthcare Solutions Team Provides Expert Advise For Healthcare Reform
As October 1, 2013 approaches and open enrollment starts for healthcare marketplaces, consumers can find expert guidance and affordable health insurance options through qualified agents at Healthcare Solutions Team.
Lombard, IL (PRWEB) September 11, 2013
October 1, 2013 marks the start of open enrollment for state and federal healthcare exchanges. The exchange is defined as a marketplace where consumers can compare insurance plans and purchase health insurance either online, by mail or in person. Although regulated at the state or national level, each exchange will offer health insurance plans provided by private companies, each featuring the same benefits and required services.
Many people—confused about exactly what healthcare exchanges are and how healthcare reform will impact them—are falling prey to scams.
"Consumers need to be vigilant about protecting their personal information, and that includes being aware of potential scams from people claiming to be government employees urging them to sign up for fake healthcare plans," said Grant Born. "Don't give out bank account, credit card or Social Security numbers without a clear understanding of who the recipient is."
Born pointed out that legitimate healthcare insurance agents are available, however, to assist consumers understand what policies are best for them. He, along with partner Joe Eichman, created Healthcare Solutions Team in 2007 with the goal of making affordable healthcare accessible to everyone. Based in Lombard, Illinois, Healthcare Solutions Team is trying to simplify the dizzying maze of changes brought forth by healthcare reform.
"Our agents are well educated and versed on a variety of health insurance plans and will work with each individual to find the one that fits best," said Eichman. "Plus, people have the comfort and security of speaking to a live, licensed and accredited agent who can answer their questions, take the time to walk them through policies, and ensure the best results.
"What's missing from the health insurance exchanges is the comprehensive knowledge and guidance that an experienced insurance agent can provide," he continued. "It can be overwhelming to understand all the various elements of insurance policies and plans and know what is best for you and your family."
Healthcare Solutions Team offers an array of coverages including dental, supplemental and life insurance; simple Health Savings Accounts; high-deductible plans; short-term medical coverage; small business, self-employed and group healthcare; and major medical plans for individuals and families.
Since its inception, Healthcare Solutions Team has grown into one of the country's premier health and dental insurance agencies. In addition to being named America's #1 Managing General Agency by Assurant Health for two years in a row, Healthcare Solutions Team was listed in 2012 and 2013's "Inc. 500|5000" and has been named America's #1 Career Health Insurance Agency and Top Key Broker by UnitedHealthOne, as well.

Jim, John Harbaugh a win away from Super Bowl
One thing neither likes during game week is anything they consider nonsense - a distraction to the one and only goal of a victory.
The Harbaughs can be dismissive. They're known to sneer or blow off questions altogether when it comes to injuries or any other tidbit that might give an opponent insight or a possible advantage - perceived or otherwise.
Jim Harbaugh had a roster full of playoff first-timers going into last Saturday's win.
His message: "Don't overcook it." Translation: Stick with what got you here.
John Harbaugh has a postseason-tested roster of men who have been in the big games before. Ray Lewis is still around from the 2001 Super Bowl champion team.
Both possess a laser-like football focus and find unique ways to motivate.
"When he gets fired up, it's fire and brimstone," Ravens linebacker Jarret Johnson said of John. "But for the most part, he reads a lot. He draws a lot from the military. We get a lot of poetry. He uses a lot of different analogies and stuff. I would say he's all over the place. He's a rah-rah guy when he needs to be, and he's also very subtle. Maybe a Shakespeare speech, something like that. He draws inspiration from everywhere."
Jim has his players buying into a blue-collar mentality, and there are actual blue-collar shirts to fit the theme. Defensive line coach Jim Tomsula wears his regularly around team headquarters.
"It's really been fun to see the sayings that have really grabbed on from the blue-collar aspect," Akers said. "A lot of this country is built on the blue-collar idea."
Jim Harbaugh always has a story to share. From the one about his uncles who untucked their shirts after a long day's work - he now does the same after each victory - to his own missed opportunity at a Super Bowl, one he figured surely would come again.
In the AFC championship game after the 1995 season, the Colts had the ball on the Steelers 29 on third-and-1, but Harbaugh's Hail Mary throw to the end zone went through Aaron Bailey's hands as time expired. Pittsburgh won, 20-16.
"He just tells us to give it all we have, give it all we've got, go out there and just fight, just fight as a team," running back Frank Gore said. "Think about all the bad times we had here and now we have this opportunity and go take advantage of it. That's what we're trying to do."
If Jim Harbaugh wins Sunday, he'll be headed back to a city where he is still loved despite not coming through that day. His sister, Joani Crean - whose husband coaches at Indiana - still regularly gets stopped by strangers when she travels to Indianapolis with their stories about her brother, Jim.
Both Harbaughs recall their youths to give examples of what they learned from their coaching father, Jack.
During training camp, John Harbaugh talked about sharing one of those tales with his team.
"The guys laughed. They've heard it before, but when you say, `This is something my dad used to tell me,' boom, it disarms them a little bit. They appreciate it," he said.

The hexameter has never enjoyed a similar popularity in English, where the standard metre is iambic pentameter; however, various English poems have been written in hexameter over the centuries. There are numerous examples of iambic hexameter from the 16th century and a few from the 17th; the most prominent of these is Michael Drayton's Poly-Olbion (1612) in hexameter couplets. An example from Drayton:
In the 17th century the iambic hexameter, or alexandrine, was used as a substitution in the heroic couplet, and as one of the types of permissible lines in lyrical stanzas and the Pindaric odes of Cowley and Dryden.
In the late 18th century the hexameter was adapted to the Lithuanian language by Kristijonas Donelaitis. His poem "Metai" (The Seasons) is considered the most successful hexameter text in Lithuanian as yet.
Several attempts were made in the 19th century to naturalise the dactylic hexameter to English, by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Arthur Hugh Clough and others, none of them particularly successful. Gerard Manley Hopkins wrote many of his poems in six foot iambic and sprung rhythm lines. In the 20th century a loose ballad-like six-foot line with a strong medial pause was used by William Butler Yeats. The iambic six-foot line has also been used occasionally, and an accentual six-foot line has been used by translators from the Latin and many poets.

By Brian MacPhersonWhen the Kansas City Chiefs visit Gillette Stadium on Monday night on Monday night, plenty of familiar faces will be making their returns to New England -- and that's not even counting Kansas City quarterback Matt Cassel, who doesn't figure to play. "There are certainly some similarities to some of the things that were at the Jets in the '97, '98, '99 years (when) many of us were together," Patriots coach Bill Belichick said in a conference call Tuesday. Chiefs coach Todd Haley coached with Belichick when both worked for the New York Jets in the late 1990s. Chiefs defensive coordinator Romeo Crennel coached with the Patriots both under Bill Parcells and under Bill Belichick -- as well as with the Jets alongside Belichick -- before he departed the Patriots to take a head-coaching job with the Cleveland Browns following the 2004 season. Chiefs offensive coordinator Bill Muir worked as the offensive-line coach for the Patriots in the early 1980s. Chiefs defensive...

Minneapolis, MN- Two Minnesota pugilists who have never been shy to accept a challenge will square off in a Minneapolis vs. St. Paul rematch December 18, when Phil Williams takes on Matt Vanda at Target Center. The card will bring boxing back to Target Center with an exciting line up of other in-state grudge matches, pitting Minneapolis area fighters with St. Paul area fighters.
While Vanda picked up a split decision victory over Williams last November, The Drill vows to be better prepared, and far more active in his second opportunity.
Im not going to really comment on how I plan on doing it, but Im going to do a lot of things differently. I feel like Im going to make the most of the opportunity, and get the win this time around. Williams said.
The heavily publicized first meeting between Williams and Vanda was Minnesotas highest grossing boxing event in 2009, and was viewed throughout the region on Fox Sports North.
Vanda made headlines last week, publicly announcing his desire to take on middleweight prospect Caleb Truax. While Truaxs team has shown little interest over the past six months in a rematch with Phil Williams, an offer was made to Vanda and Truax earlier this month to meet December 18th. Reports say that Vanda accepted terms while Truax turned the in-state grudge match down.
Im excited to take on the best in order to become the best around here. Im not going to try to duck or dodge my way to the top. Ive wanted this rematch for a while, and Im ready to get in with Truax again too whenever theyre ready. Williams commented on the Minnesota middleweight scene.
The North Minneapolis native, Williams, made his last ring appearance in April when he battled the undefeated Truax to a ten round draw. Vanda will take on fellow veteran Ossie Duran on November 12th prior to starting camp for Williams.

This Texas Professor Is Turning A Dumpster Into The World's Ultimate Tiny Home
It's ambitious. It's a little crazy. It's 30 square feet.
For the last four months, environmental science professor Jeff Wilson has been living in a 30-square-foot dumpster on the campus of Huston-Tillotson University in Austin, Texas, plotting ways to turn the former trash bin into one of the world's most sustainable tiny homes.
Why a dumpster? Wilson wanted to rethink the resources used by a typical single-family home, and dumpsters happen to be about 1% of the size of the average new American house. He also likes the symbolism.
"Dumpsters are ubiquitous, yet unseen," he says. "They're these magic boxes where you throw what you don't want and it disappears. I think they're representative of our actions on a daily basis—when you flip on a light switch, about the only impact you might see is a little bit of change in cost. But there are all of these things happening behind the scenes."
He also wanted to take advantage of people's visceral reaction to trash to get them to pay attention. "It's taking the whole idea of home and mixing it with one of the most powerful reactionary forces in the human psyche, that of disgust," he says. "It's so hard to engage people these days on issues of sustainability because people just largely have become numb to it, and it's become boring. Especially if that's not your thing."
The oddity of the dumpster house has drawn in an audience that otherwise probably would not be talking about sustainable design. He was featured on a recent episode of a conservative radio show, for instance. Though the hosts opened the show by framing Wilson as "a hipster who's had too many PBRs," they ended up expressing support for the project.
"How many times do you get a conservative talk show saying they love a project that has undercurrents of sustainability?" Wilson asks. "They wouldn't have even called me if I wasn't living in a dumpster."
Over the next half of the year, Wilson and a team of students will set up the dumpster like a miniature version of a typical American home, complete with air conditioning. Basically, the goal is measure "bad" performance in a tiny home. In December, they'll begin to remodel it with every conceivable sustainable feature, from solar power to a cutting-edge green toilet.
Ultimately, the team will use what they learn from remodeling the dumpster to make plans for a small house that others can build themselves. "We're going to take all of the lessons we've learned from this about design and living in small spaces and we're going to build the tiniest home to code in the city of Austin," Wilson says. "We want to develop a 'how to' for building the tiniest home possible."
When Co.Exist last spoke to Wilson last October, he was preparing to begin his experiment. So far, Wilson says he hasn't had any regrets about the decision to give up his ordinary house, despite the fact that garbage trucks wake him up in the middle of the night when they empty the dumpsters next to him, and summer heat will likely be a challenge. "The experience of having such a small space and no distractions when you go home has been interesting," he says. "And my commute to work is now a two-minute walk."
The Dumpster Project is currently raising funds on Kickstarter.

Kudos to Dr. Wilson for this. I've seen people take old train cars and repurpose them into offices and living quarters. But this is a stretch I hadn't heard of. Thanks for covering this Adele. It's a very unique story, as well as one of the more intriguing Kickstarter projects in a long while.
I didn't know we had a doofus like this guy in Texas. What's so unique about this? Restaurants already have these complete with food and some water (used of course). and they have a weekly cleaning service; you only have to step out while the truck lifts your house and dumps it and start out all over again. Get serious people.......
I like how the "dumpster" aspect distracted you so much that you, in fact, were unable to see the seriousness of the undertaking.
They had a whole storyline on the somewhat underrated show "2 Broke Girls" this season where one of the leads, Max, was dating a guy named Deke who lived in a dumpster outside their diner. It was a pretty clever setup, that dumpster.
Love the story and the tiny homes. Not so sure about a dumpster, but I see the use and the value working for some. I built one of my own using minimal dollars and materials using this guide http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00IKT3TW4 It is a good way to get ideas to get started. I suggest it.

Polls open in Afghanistan's presidential run-off election
Published on Jun 14, 2014 11:09 AM
KABUL(AFP) - Afghans lined up on Saturday to vote in a second-round presidential election despite Taleban threats, as US-led combat troops wind down a 13-year war that has failed to defeat the insurgents.
The run-off election will decide whether former foreign minister Abdullah Abdullah or ex-World Bank economist Ashraf Ghani leads the country into a new era with declining international military and civilian assistance.
President Hamid Karzai is due to step down after ruling the country since 2001, when a US-led offensive ousted the Taleban regime for sheltering Al-Qaeda militants behind the 9/11 attacks.
Afghan officials and international allies are hoping for a repeat of the first-round vote in April, when the insurgents failed to launch a single high-profile attack and voter turnout was more than 50 percent.

Tension rises Down Under; DRAMA Cold Feet (ITV, 9.00pm).
Pete's bombshell decision to marry Jo means best mates Adam, Rachel, David and Karen have followed him Down Under in this 90-minute special.
But Adam is convinced his friend is making a big mistake and he's determined to put a stop to the wedding.
David is in determined mood, too. He intends that this holiday will be Karen's best ever, but she's still torn between him and lover Mark.
What terrible taste Karen (Hermione Norris) has in men - David is dull as dishwater, but Mark (Sean Pertwee) is a smarmy sleaze bomb.
Rachel's sister turns up to complicate matters. She's a lesbian who wants a child and her solution is to sleep with as many men as it takes until she gets pregnant. But Adam has a better idea.
There's been no hint that a new series of Cold Feet will be made and if this is the last-ever episode, we should make the most of what has been a relatively disappointing series.
The Kumars At No 42 (BBC2, 9.00pm)
GRANNY'S in her element again in tonight's episode of the hilarious spoof chat show. Sanjeev is welcoming Dalziel And Pascoe star Warren Clarke on to the set, much to his mad granny's delight - Meera Syal's scene-stealing ought to be reported to Scotland Yard.
Granny tries to tempt Warren with her home-made Indian sweets and is utterly smitten by his large hands and feet, asking the bemused actor: "Do you work out?"
There's a brighter spot on the horizon for Sanjeev in the shape of his other guest, Blue Peter presenter Konnie Huq.
He immediately falls in love and attempts to impress her with "the biggest indoor water feature in the Wembley area".
Hot Property (Channel 5, 8.30pm)
PRESENTER Alice Beer is in Glasgow tonight for the final edition of the show that gives first-time buyers the chance to win their own home.
Anton and Pamela both live in the city, but not together, both still staying at home with their parents.
Alice offers them three properties - the first is a one-bedroom mezzanine flat in the former Co-op building in the city centre; the second a quirky four-bedroom bungalow 15 minutes drive out of town; and the third is a one-bedroom basement flat in the sought-after West End.
They take video tours of all three des res and, after hearing the advice of a top property expert, Anton and Pamela are asked to pick the one they would like to be their dream home.
If they can guess the selling price to within pounds 1000, it's theirs.
EastEnders (BBC1, 8.00pm)
NEW parents Mark and Lisa enjoy a welcome break tonight when Sharon offers to babysit.
But they'll live to regret it as, predictably enough in soapland, it all goes horribly wrong.
Sharon (Letitia Dean) really wants time away from Mr Potato Head Phil, but he turns up for a smooch while she's watching baby Louise.
And when the sprog's constant crying starts to get on his nerves, the sensitive Mitchell brother switches off the baby alarm. Not one of your better ideas, Phil.
Checking on the tiny tot later, Sharon is horrified to discover she is not breathing.
Mark and Lisa arrive home just in time to leap into the ambulance where the recriminations begin immediately.
And now it's time for Sharon to tell Phil the truth about why she can't have a baby of her own.
Things are no happier in the Slater household where a furious Kat, ignoring Little Mo, searches in vain for Zoe.
