Canadian auto parts manufacturer Magna, chosen by Berlin to take over automaker Opel, says it wants to build cars by the German company in Canada.
Canadian auto parts manufacturer Magna, chosen by Berlin to take over automaker Opel, says it wants to build cars by the German company in Canada.
"We want to build Opel cars in Canada," Magna chairman Frank Stronach told The Globe and Mail on Saturday, without however providing details of where the vehicles could be assembled.
"I know we can be competitive, I know we can create jobs in Canada and the United States," he added in the interview with the daily from Toronto, the eastern Canadian city where he opened his first auto plant in 1957.
"If we don't change the culture, North America's got no chance to be in the automobile industry, absolutely no chance."
Stronach said auto makers can be competitive if management and employees work together and end what he called the confrontational and adversarial structure that has dominated the industry.
After marathon negotiations brokered by the German government, a deal was struck early on Saturday that sees Magna and its Russian backers taking over Opel as its US-based parent company General Motors prepares to file for insolvency.
As part of the deal, Magna would take over 20 per cent of the new company, which would become Canada's biggest automaker, while Russia's Sberbank would have a 35 per cent stake, GM would keep another 25 per cent and employees would secure 10 per cent.

In Ramanthapuram, the junction in front of Travellers' Bungalow from where the road to Kilakkarai branches off from the highway is an important one. It should be provided with permanent divider and a triangular-shaped traffic island for easy flow of vehicular traffic from/to Keelakarai. I request the authorities to inspect the spot and carry out improvements needed.
Asmabagh Anvardeen,
RamanathapuramWorking hours
The working hours at the reservation counter in Paramakudi railway station are 8 a.m. to 12 a.m. and 2.30 p.m. to 5 p.m. whereas it is 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. in Ramanathapuram. I appeal to the railways to change the working hours in Paramakudi as in Ramanathapuram.
V. Rajendran,
ParamakudiMake the most of surplus water
Owing to unprecedented rain last month, the Vaigai was in spate and floodwater filled Mugavai oorani in Ramanathapuram to the brim. Surplus water was let into the sea through south and north regulators. The PWD authorities do not seem to worry much about wasteful discharge of water. To avoid such a wastage, a check-dam should be constructed in Sakkarakottai tank to store water.
Besides Mugavai oorani, Lakshmipuram oornai and Pamboorani should also be filled with Vaigai water at times of flood. These three ooranis, once the drinking water sources of Ramanathapuram, should be fenced and watchmen posted to prevent misuse. The town will get surface water supply from these ooranis and Sakkarakottai tank as in the case of Chennai getting water from Puzhaleri, Poondi and Chemparampakkam lakes.
G. Nagasamy,
RamanathapuramEnglish teaching
Apropos the news item "Importance of conversation control" (The Hindu, April 18), it is pertinent to note that classroom English teaching in higher secondary and college level should be streamlined and translation-oriented teaching should be made compulsory. Simple sentences such as "He was there," "Were you born in a city?," "How is she?," "How much do they spend?," etc., should be translated in Tamil to kindle an interest in English among students. Translation of interrogative pronouns — whose, who, which, for what — and other allied items of grammar should also help in teaching. Reading habit should be encouraged among students to improve their communication skill in English. Teachers ought to play a vital role with regard to teaching of English.
M. S. Sankaran,
PalaniTrain to Kanyakumari
Rameswaram is a major tourism centre, attracting pilgrims from all over the country. The visitors include aged people. From here, there is no direct train service to Kanyakumari, an equally important tourist centre. To travel between these two places, one has to either change trains at Madurai or take a bus – both are arduous. I request the railways to introduce daily train services, at least fast passengers, between these two places via Madurai and Tirunelveli.
Since, train services will be introduced on the new broad gauge line to Tiruchendur, those bound for the temple town can also change trains at Tirunelveli.
K. K. Krishnamurthy,

Right-click to open a command prompt
Got a problem with Windows? There's no need to put up with elements that don't suit you. We've got the tools to help you get XP or Vista looking and acting just right.
To accomplish certain tasks, such as mass deleting or renaming of files, the command prompt is the ideal tool.
Often, you'll combine its use with Windows Explorer. Because of this, you may want to open the command prompt at the folder that's your current location in Explorer.
But wouldn't it be nice to add an option to the right-click context menu that would open a command prompt at your current folder? For example, if you were to right-click the C:\My Stuff folder, you could then open a command prompt directly at C:\My Stuff.
1. In Vista, it's easy to do. Hold down Shift when you right-click in a folder window and a new option appears on the context menu: 'Open Command Window Here'. Select it and there you are – in an appropriately located command prompt.
2. In XP, that option doesn't appear, but you can add it with a Registry tweak. Launch the Registry Editor by typing 'regedit' at the Start Search box, then go to Hkey_Local_Machine\Software\Classes\Folder\shell.
3. Create a new key called 'Command Prompt'. For the default value, enter the text you want to appear when you right-click a folder – for example, 'Open Command Prompt'.
4. Create a subkey beneath the Command Prompt key called 'Command'. Set the default value to 'Cmd.exe /k pushd %'.
5. Exit the Registry. The new menu option will show up immediately. Note that it won't appear when you right-click a file; it shows up only when you right-click a folder.

Man stabbed to death; friend is accused in killing
Argument began at a neighborhood barbecue
CORPUS CHRISTI - A barbecue among neighbors and friends turned deadly early Monday.
A 49-year-old Corpus Christi man was killed at the home of a friend's mother. His longtime friend, a 69-year-old Yoakum man, who visited the city on weekends to care for his disabled mother, is accused in his death.
Charles Anthony Ellison, 49, was stabbed to death about 12:30 a.m. Monday at a barbecue on Ramona Drive, near Greenwood Park, police report.
Willie B. Denmon, 69, is jailed on suspicion of murder at the Nueces County Jail. His bail was set at $100,000.
Ellison's family members said the two men had been friends for years.
"They were like two peas in a pod," Ellison's brother Steve said. "You wouldn't see one without the other."
Witnesses told police Ellison was grilling with friends at Denmon's mother's house when the two got into an argument and took it onto the street. During the dispute blows were exchanged and Ellison was stabbed with an unknown weapon, police said.
Ellison was taken to Christus Spohn Hospital Memorial where he died of his injuries.
Ellison, a West Oso High School graduate, performed odd jobs around the neighborhood. He was the second youngest in a family of 13.
Ellison's family said he was known as "Chihuahua" because of his small stature, but the 5-foot man had a big personality.
"He was a happy-go-lucky kind of guy," Steve Ellison said.
Neighbor Gilbert Quintero said he saw Ellison leaving Denmon's house about 10 p.m. Sunday and the two already had been arguing. About 1 a.m. Monday Quintero said he awoke to sounds of police cars outside.
"This is a sad situation to hear about both of them," said Quintero who has lived next door to Denmon's mother for 12 years.
"I've never had any problems with Willie," Quintero said. "He's always been polite and talkative with all the neighbors."
Ellison's family said funeral arrangements will be postponed until next week because of the threat of Tropical Storm Alex.

New Orleans fears costs of ordered reforms to police, prison systems
NEW ORLEANS — A federal judge has approved a sweeping agreement between the Justice Department and the city of New Orleans designed to clean up the city's long-troubled police department, but Mayor Mitch Landrieu, who once strongly backed it, said the city wants to put the brakes on it because of costs.
Landrieu said he asked U.S. District Judge Susie Morgan to delay final approval, largely because the Justice Department has also entered into a potentially expensive separate agreement with the New Orleans sheriff for reforms at the city-funded jail.
Morgan, however, approved the agreement, calling it "fair, adequate and reasonable" in a Friday ruling.
"The Orleans Parish Prison consent decree may cost $17 million, which is not budgeted for this year and would therefore bankrupt the City," Landrieu said in a news release. "If a federal judge ordered the City to pay $17 million, we would need to furlough every City employee, including police officers, for 28 days. It makes no sense to furlough or lay off police officers to give pay raises to prison guards."
"We just can't afford it," said City Council member Cynthia Hedge-Morrell, a member of the council budget committee.
The mayor said that he was unsure of the city's next legal step.

Best Soap Ever!!!!
11 个顾客认为以下的评论有帮助
Reviewer2132565发表于 Nov 20, 2008
I have Multiple Chemical Sensitivity and can't use most commercial soaps. This soap is truly fragrance-free and uses only pure ingredients. We have hard water, yet this soap lathers like crazy. The baking soda in it really helps remove fragrance and other chemicals from my hair and skin. Unlike any shampoo, it leaves my hair super clean, shiny and silky. It also leaves my skin soft. It's not drying like most soaps. This is truly the best soap I've ever used. I won't buy anything else.

This is the best soap I have tried for people with allergies and/or chemical sensitivities! My only complaint is that a 3.25 oz. bar doesn't last very long. A 6+ oz. bar at the same price would make this a perfect soap.

This soap leaves me feeling super clean. At first I thought the baking soda smell would transfer to my skin, but it does not. It just leaves me feeling clean and fresh as a soap should. I will continue to use this product because it does not irritate my sensitive skin.
Simple ingredients and easy to rinse off.

Dishwashers save more water than washing by hand?
By Jamilah Le
April 7, 2009
To handwash or not to handwash? When it comes to saving water, it seems some people firmly believe that the dishwasher is one of those things that need to be sacrificed. Too much water and energy is the argument. A new study firmly refutes this idea and - keeping in mind that it's presented by Electrolux, a company that makes washing machines - revisits the debate on dishwashers. Read More

Hot water use in washing machines in a big component of household energy use.

Iron Aid is a unique technological innovation, with special steam cycles that will reduce, or even eliminate, the need to iron, saving the hassle and time associated with this chore. The design uses steam to reduce and remove wrinkles and creases, to deliver ready-to-wear clothes. Up to five wrinkle free shirts can be produced in just 20 minutes and the Iron Aid can refresh and de-odorise even "dry clean only" garments and will refresh a silk or wool suit in 20 minutes. The product was released in Europe earlier this year, achieving its projected annual sales figures for 2007 by the end of March. Like we said, ironing is a killer-app opportunity, and this product appears to be a contender. Read More
March 23, 2007 As Apple has so convincingly demonstrated, a simple generic device can be transformed into a killer product with a ripper interface. We're all aware of the limitations of traditionally appalling video recorder and microwave oven interfaces so we're very pleased to report that Electrolux is releasing a new range of microwave ovens with a new and vastly improved (at least that's the claim) interface. Called the Intuitive Oven Interface (IOI), Electrolux claims it's so simple, you won't ever need to read the manual. The new ovens are part of Electrolux's E:Line collection of kitchen appliances.

Issues that drove them to the brink included sexual abuse, eating disorders, relationship problems and depression.
More than 1300 students from Glasgow University signed up to see a counsellor in the last academic year, a rise of 160 per cent since 2008.
At the University of the West of Scotland (UWS), the number of students seeking help has risen by 112 per cent in the same time period.
One student studying at UWS, which has campuses in Paisley, Ayr, Hamilton and Dumfries, turned to the university-run service for support when he was struggling to cope financially, having being made redundant shortly before starting his course.
Another postgraduate student said she needed help following a relationship breakdown at the start of her course. She said: "I was feeling overwhelmed and very down, and financial issues were a worry too.
"I didn't want to go and talk to my doctor, but I knew I wanted to get some sort of support to get me through a difficult time.
The recent economic downturn has left many students struggling to cope on their already squeezed budgets, which student representative Jessica McGrellis thinks may be a factor in the increasing numbers seeking counselling.
Ms McGrellis, who is the president of Glasgow University's Students' Representative Council, said: "I think a lot of students, particularly in the current economic climate, put a lot of pressure on themselves to do really well.
"It's not good enough to get just a degree, you have to get a really good degree and do a lot of other things as well.
Glasgow Caledonian University has also seen a 27 per cent increase in the number of students asking for help since 2010.
It attributes this to heightened visibility and awareness of the services offered".

Will pension reform fuel home boom?
Posted: March 26, 2014|
Chancellor George Osborne's pensions overhaul could make home ownership in the West Country even more difficult for local people amid fears it will trigger a surge in holiday home purchases.
Experts have warned that allowing people reaching retirement age to use pension pots however they want – rather than buy an annuity to guarantee an annual income – could fuel a buy-to-let boom.
Young families in rural and coastal areas already face house prices as unaffordable as central London, a consequence in part of the two areas topping the list of destinations popular among owners of holiday rents and part-time residences.
Now politicians locally are worried if people switch their retirement savings to investment property they may eventually want to live in, house prices in picturesque pockets of the country could rocket.
Properties to let in prime holiday locations in the region can comfortably get £1,000-a-week at peak periods.
The West Country boasts thousands of holiday homes and while some say they contribute greatly to the region's economy, others say the demand forces up prices that far outstrip local wages.
Last week, Liberal Democrat Pensions Minister Steve Webb, the MP for Thornbury & Yate and the architect of the policy, said it was people's "choice" if they spent their savings on a Lamborghini rather than being forced to buy an annuity, which have been criticised for under-performing and offering little flexibility for savers.
Former South West Minister Ben Bradshaw, Labour MP for Exeter, said: "With housing costs already massively outstripping incomes, anything that could further stoke house price inflation or second home buying needs very close examination indeed. It might be OK for people who already own their homes or who can afford a second one but not for those struggling to get on the housing ladder or facing spiralling rents."
The average British pension pot is £30,000. Research indicates when savers in Australia were automatically given a workplace pension, without being forced to buy a pension, one-third used their cash to buy a home, pay off an outstanding mortgage or make home improvements such as new kitchens or conservatories.
London mayor Boris Johnson – whose family live on Exmoor – this week suggested property would be the most likely asset targeted as it could be passed on.
He said: "I don't think many will end up blowing it on Italian cars. I think the vast majority will want to put their pots into the market with the greatest yield over the past 40 years – and that is property; and I expect huge numbers of those approaching pensionable age will be thinking about how they – the baby boomers – can do something to help the younger generation with the single biggest problem they face, namely the cost of housing."

I love mountains. So I found this LWP, not only it is awesome, but it has included weather effects. The cool thing is that it doesn't lag up my homescreen on my Galaxy Nexus unlike other intensive LWP. It would be cool to see some random holiday events in there as well. But other than that, it looks great! 1 star. It's glitchy

For some reason, the weather always indicates rain although it hasn't rained here in about 3 months. Since I don't know what weather provider this uses and can't view what it thinks the current conditions are, I have no way of tracking down the problem. Other than that and the broken landscape view, this wallpaper looks great. Sure, the colors are over saturated, but so are postcards. Fix what's b

For the record, I've done San Francisco to Cincinnati in 39 hours. That's 2043 miles and only 52.4 miles an hour.The message came across the police scanner in October 2006 as Alexander Roy was driving his 2000 BMW M5 west on Interstate 44 in Oklahoma: I have a report of a blue BMW speeding, weaving in and out of traffic and driving recklessly. Be advised.
The dashboard in Alexander Roys BMW has a laser scrambler and four global positioning systems, among other gadgets.
Roy said he heard it shortly after he and his co-driver, David Maher, had been exceeding 150 miles an hour. As Maher scanned the prairie through binoculars for a place to hide, the cars radar detectors lighted up. They decided to exit the highway and feign a bathroom break while a support team in a Cessna overhead searched for the speed trap that would inevitably materialize.
Having temporarily escaped, Roy eased back onto the highway. As he approached two state police vehicles waiting on the median, he ducked to the right of a tractor-trailer in a move he called the cross-country racers ideal police line-of-sight blocking position.
The maneuver, he said, enabled him to break a 23-year-old illegal endurance-driving record by navigating from New York to Los Angeles in 31 hours 4 minutes. He said he recorded an average speed of 90.1 m.p.h. over a mapped route of 2,794 miles.
These and other moving violations are described in his memoir, which was released yesterday by HarperCollins. The book, The Driver: My Dangerous Pursuit of Speed and Truth in the Outlaw Racing World, describes a subculture of illegal endurance racing and efforts to break transcontinental records set in the 1970s and 80s.
Because of the dubious legality and the absence of a sanctioning body, transcontinental and endurance-driving records are hard to quantify. Roy did not disclose his accomplishment for more than a year to coordinate with the release of his book, a difficult feat considering that bragging rights are among the only spoils of the pursuit. In the past two days, however, word of the run has surfaced on automotive Web sites, prompting debate about the record and about the safety of the attempts.
Roy, the 35-year-old president of Europe by Car, a high-end car rental agency based in New York, has achieved fame in automotive circles for participating in road rallies like the Gumball 3000 and Bullrun. Those events are successors to the 1970s Cannonball Runs that inspired the movie franchise.
The events are usually weeklong affairs that do not officially sanction racing but involve teams speeding from checkpoint to checkpoint.
A relentless self-promoter with a shiny bald head, Roy became known for driving in a mock German police car dressed as an officer. He reasoned the outfit could help keep him out of jail and win style points with judges and notoriety with fans. His co-driver, Maher, 28, works in banking and races in Porsche club events on weekends.
Last week, Roy displayed the in-car gadgetry required to make such a run, including a laser jammer to scramble police speed-enforcement equipment, ground-to-air radio, two night-vision monitors, four global positioning system units and a CB radio. A Westchester County garage does the after-market modifications on the standard M5, including the installation of high-performance brakes, a racing clutch and a 20-gallon fuel cell in the trunk to give the car a capacity of about 38 gallons.
Fuel stops and bathroom breaks they made six on the journey were a speedy choreography. While one of them pumped the gas, the other ran to the restroom. Nobody slept. Roy said a single traffic stop could have ruined the whole attempt.
Getting a ticket takes 15 minutes, he said. (He has gotten enough to know.) Thats your whole margin of error on a run like this, and to have it happen would be a real confidence destroyer.
The record he set out to break was 32:07, supposedly established on the 1983 US Express, a more covert successor to the Cannonball Run. That record, never officially documented, was brought to Roys attention in 2004 by the independent filmmaker Cory Welles. Roy took Welles along in the back seat to document his run.
It appears that Roy faces no legal jeopardy. The police in Ohio, for example, have six months to prosecute speeding violations, and an officer must witness the violation, said Sgt. Toby Smith, a spokesman for Ohios State Highway Patrol. The patrol has a reputation among rally drivers as one of the nations most feared.
If someone wants to fess up afterward, theres really not a whole lot I can do from a law enforcement standpoint, Smith said. Mike Spinelli, managing editor of the Web site Jalopnik.com, said he was there when Roy left the Classic Car Club in Manhattan and had a colleague show up at the finish on the Santa Monica Pier in California.
I was there for a lot of the planning, and Ive seen all the evidence hes presented, Spinelli said, referring to video evidence, witness testimonials and time-stamped gas and toll receipts. Im about as sure as I can be that he did it without having been in the car with him.
That said, another driving team claims to have broken the transcontinental record. In May, Richard Rawlings and Dennis Collins of Texas said they drove a 1999 Ferrari 550 Maranello, on a bet, from Midtown Manhattan to the Portofino Inn and Yacht Club in Redondo Beach, Calif., in 31:59. They said they covered 2,811 miles at an average speed of 87.6 m.p.h.
Roy and Rawlings are friends and longtime rivals on the rally circuit.
When we set out, we believed the record to be 32 hours and 51 minutes, because that was set on the sanctioned route of the original Cannonball; that was the real deal, Rawlings, the owner of a Dallas body shop, said. Alexs perceived transcontinental record is not valid. He didnt stick to the route.
Indeed, the Portofino is featured in The Cannonball Run. Glenn Bishop, the hotels general manager, said several races have ended there and that as recently as last spring, a dozen racers showed up early one Sunday morning but asked the hotel staff not to alert reporters.
Rawlings also said that Roy violated the spirit of the original Cannonball Runs.
We didnt put any prep into it; we didnt have a chase vehicle or planes, he said. And we didnt try two times and fail like Alex did. We just went and did it.
Roy said he planned his venture for more than a year by mapping speed traps and construction zones before making his final run. He estimated the cost to be at least $75,000. He said he overcame any discrepancy of route with his faster average speed and what he called the margin of legitimacy between his time and the one set by Rawlings and Collins.
Brock Yates, an automotive journalist and Cannonball Run organizer, said he had not acknowledged any transcontinental records since the last Cannonball Run in 1979.
I stopped the race, because I knew sooner or later that somebody was going to get killed, said Yates, who also wrote the first Cannonball movie.
Still, he said, the routes would have to be identical for records to be comparable. Complicating matters further is that the Cannonball record was established in a race that started in Darien, Conn., instead of New York, to limit news media attention. But as drivers whittle their times, the threshold of a 30-hour run looms.
If people want to try it, the roads are open, Yates said.

DEFINITION of 'Giclées'
A digital reproduction of a print created through digital technology. Because the creation of a giclée print involves high-end printers, this type of print is generally considered to be of higher quality than other poster reproduction methods, such as a offset lithography.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Giclées'
While a giclée is much less rare than an original print, the use of high-quality inks can make the colors of the reproduction more vivid and the production itself longer lasting. The giclée can be printed on a variety of surfaces, including canvas, which can give the impression that the giclée is actually the original work.
The cost associated with producing a giclée makes it more expensive to collectors, but can bring increased risks. Dubious art dealers may try to pass off a giclée as an original, since untrained collectors may be unable to spot the differences. Close inspection of a giclée will often show the dots used by the inkjet printer.

text: LONG POND -- Indy cars will return to Pocono Raceway next summer for the first time since 1989 as the racetrack and the IndyCar Series announced the Pocono IndyCar 400 will be held July 7. The announcement was made this morning during a press conference that included Pocono Raceway Chief Executive Officer Brandon Igdalsky; Mario Andretti, the 1986 winner of the Pocono race and a Bethlehem resident; Ed Carpenter, a current Izod IndyCar Series racer; and IndyCar Chief Executive Officer Randy Bernard.�??The fans wanted to see open-wheel racing return to Pocono Raceway and we�??re excited to welcome the IZOD IndyCar Series back next summer,�?� said Igdalsky, whsoe grandfather Joseph "Doc" Matiolli was at the helm when the Indy Series first came to Pocono and when it last ran at the triangular 2.5-mile track. �??We are now pleased to offer the greatest fans in all of motorsports, the very best in both stock car and open-wheel racing.�?�The Pocono race will come two weeks after the Iowa Corn Indy 250 and a week prior to the Honda Indy Toronto. According to the IndyCar website, the race will air on ABC. It's one of 19 races on the 2013 schedule that includes traditional Memorial Day weekend stop at Indianapolis Motor Speedway on May 26. The series stop in Edmonton that was held this year on July 22 and won by Helio Castroneves is not on next year's schedule. Like this year's schedule, the 2013 season will open with the Honda Grand Prix of St. Petersburg on March 24 and will end at the racetrack in Fontana, Calif. Pocono Raceway�??s 400-mile event will join the 2013 IZOD IndyCar Triple Crown, with a $1 Million bonus awarded to a driver who wins at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Pocono Raceway and the 2013 IndyCar Series season finale at Auto Club Speedway. A driver that wins two of the three races will be awarded a $250,000 bonus.Pocono Raceway will also offer two NASCAR sanctioned race weekends next year including the Pocono 400 June 9 and the Pennsylvania 400 Aug. 4. The weekends include ARCA series racing, too, and the August race weekend includes a NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race.

Please log in or register to answer this question. 2 Answers 3 votes I would continue Soft Resetting. Timid is a fantastic Nature for Mewtwo (Normal) and Mega Mewtwo Y, although it's not a very good Nature for Mega Mewtwo X. But that's not the reason why I would continue Soft Resetting, the reason being is because it only has 3 IV's in it's Speed Stat. The standard EV trained Mewtwo and Mega Mewtwo Y have 252 EV's in Special Attack, 252 EV's in Speed and 4 EV's in either Defence or HP. It also has either a Special Attack or Speed Increasing Nature, genuinely Modest or Timid and 31 IV's in at least Special Attack and Speed. The standard EV trained Mega Mewtwo X will have 252 EV's in Attack, 252 EV's in Speed and 4 EV's in either Special Defence or HP. It also will have an Attack or Speed Increasing Nature, genuinely Adamant or Jolly and 31 IV's in at least Attack and Speed. Competitively Darkrai can be a major danger to Mewtwo in the Ubers Tier. From my calculations, if a Darkrai has a Speed Increasing Nature, 252 EV's in Speed and 31 IV's in Speed it will be able to out speed your Mewtwo in Normal Form and when Mega Evolved into Mega Mewtwo X even if you give it 252 EV's in it's Speed Stat. Hope I helped :) answered Jan 13, 2014 by Sir Dan Please log in or register to add a comment. 0 votes Ok, so having the nature timid And having 19 IVs in atk is horrible. Even when having a Mewtwo mega evolve into X, timids a horrible matchup. Having it mega evolve in Y will just be a waste of atk.

Re: 81' C and C 36 spars
In 1981 C&C was still manufacturing a lot of their own smaller parts.
The hatches and many other castings, goose necks, mast collars, anchor rollers, etc. were custom made by C&C. Some of these items are still avaliable through South Shore Yachts in Ontario.
The mast and boom however would have been made from bulk extrusion and cut to length. I doubt that there was a actual mast manufactuer involved.
Many different models of C&C's use the same dimension of spars.
I'm not too sure what your trying to accomplish by lengthening the boom but you could have something custom rolled to fit and sleeved onto the end of your existing boom, or, maybe a boom off of a larger C&C will do the trick, that way your goose neck may also fit as well.
We have three rules;
No screaming.
No bleeding on the sails.
No slobbering on the charts.

At 17 weeks pregnant, my belly has started to grow. I definitely feel it when I paddle. I've been trying to put more weight on my knees/thighs to take the pressure off my belly, which works pretty well other than that it is now a bit harder to paddle into waves. I'm riding a wider/thicker board and a little slower to my feet, but once I'm up and riding I'm feeling great!

New Delhi: The Supreme Court will hear on August 27 a special leave petition filed by the Karnataka State Election Commission against an order of the Karnataka High Court directing it to postpone the elections for the 209 urban local bodies in the State to September.
A Bench of Justice H.K. Sema and Justice Lokeshwar Singh Panta fixed the date of hearing after senior counsel Mukul Rohatgi, appearing for the commission mentioned about the filing of the SLP.
He said the Commission came out with the poll schedule on two occasions. The schedule was challenged in the Karnataka High Court by way of public interest litigations (PILs), he said. The Bench said that since the elections had been postponed, it could not interfere on merits but would consider the legal issues involved in the SLP.
The counsel alleged that on both the occasions, Karnataka, in collusion with the petitioners, supported their contention that it was not the right time to hold the local body elections on the ground that the notification for reservation of seats was wrong. He alleged that the State Government was not interested in the conduct of the local bodies polls and was trying to delay the elections on one pretext or the other. He said that unfortunately the High Court had interfered with the election process by its order dated August 7.
Opportunity denied
The SLP submitted that the High Court order was passed without giving any opportunity to the State Election Commission to file its objections, including the dilatory tactics adopted by the State Government.
It said the State Government had not been cooperating for holding the elections to local bodies like municipalities, municipal corporations and town municipalities although a request had been made in October 2005. The first poll schedule was issued by the commission on April 10 and the second schedule on August 2 and 3. Subsequently, the High Court had entertained the PIL and asked the Commission to issue fresh calendar of events in the last week of September.

sounds good to me, even if it doesn't work.
My DH swears by apples. I don't eat them often because they actually make my stomach just hurt, nothing more. But he says they help if he eats one daily. (sorry DH ) You could also try malic acid as I believe that's the same thing that is in apples. And I've heard that drinking a glass of warm salt water on an empty stomach can help get things moving although I've never tried it.

15th Annual Pow Wow to feature Navajo Code Talker
Monday, February 15, 2010
Media Contact: Sue Stevens
ARLINGTON - Navajo code talker Roy Hawthorne kicks off the 15th Annual Honors Scholarship Benefit Pow Wow on Saturday, Feb. 20. The event is sponsored by hosted by the Native American Student Association and The University of Texas at Arlington Honors College.
The free event is scheduled from 2 to 10 p.m. in the E.H. Hereford University Center's Bluebonnet Ballroom, 300 W. First St. Hawthorne's opening address will be in the adjacent Rosebud Theater at 2 p.m. Parking and admission is free.
During World War II, Hawthorne was among a select group of Native American Marines who used the Navajo language to cloak military messages sent across the Pacific. The unbreakable code proved to be one of the most significant military codes in modern history. The Navajo code talkers are credited with saving countless lives and helping end World War II in the Pacific.
Hawthorne starred in "The Code Talker Project: Keeping the Code Alive" and was featured when the film was shown on KERA and the History Channel this past year. He also has appeared on "The Larry King Show."
Hawthorne is now a minister who dedicates his spare time to sharing the experiences of the code talkers.
New to this year's Pow Wow is the "Fallen Soldier Ceremony." The ceremony is rooted in the pre-1800's Native American villages, when warrior societies protected villages, master of ceremonies Dennis Wahkinney said. As time evolved, Native American warriors left their homes to fight wars to defend the nation.
The Naval History and Heritage Command counts 200,000 Native American military veterans and reports that, historically, Native Americans have the highest record of service per capita when compared with other ethnic groups.
"The Fallen Soldier ceremony, within the ceremonial gourd dance, honors those who have been killed in battle," Wahkinney said. "The focus will be on those lost most recently, those soldiers who were killed in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan."
One of the most popular events each year is the Tiny Tots contest, during which young children from toddlers to 6-year-olds dance in full regalia. The contest is held during the gourd dancing event, from 2 to 5 p.m. A dinner break is scheduled from 5 to 6 p.m., with a grand entry at 6 p.m.
Select vendors will include woodcarvers and jewelry. Indian fry bread and tacos will be available.
The Pow Wow is expected to attract more than 500 guests. Proceeds benefit members of the Native American Students Association Scholarship Fund. Applicants must demonstrate commitment to and strong interest in the Native American community, but American Indian descent is not necessary to be considered for the scholarship.
Contact the association at firstname.lastname@example.com for more information.
The University of Texas at Arlington is an Equal Opportunity and Affirmative Action employer.
